Chapter 402 The King of Thieves?(1/2)
At noon, on the top of a landmark building on the center line of Beijing, two giant dragons are carefully arranged. A small platform is specially created for the position of the dragon's head. People stand here with their hands behind their hands and look into the distance. This is the Feng Shui pattern of the capital.
With a panoramic view, it has the potential to swallow up the world.
Xu Sanxiao felt anxious and stood next to Li Huqiu, whose temples were slightly white but still looked young and handsome.
Li Huqiu said: "This building was built by Ye Haodong's Public Trust Co., Ltd. It is said that these two dragons were designed by Zhang Ziwei of Yili Academy. They are very particular about their orientation and shape. You are an expert in this field, so you should
I can tell a thing or two."
Zhang Ziwei? Isn’t this a famous person on the list in Yinshan Wolf City? Xu Sanxiao’s heart moved and he thought to himself: What did Li Huqiu mean when he mentioned him? This building was built by the Public Trust Society, but the design was by Yinshan Wolf City.
, did my father-in-law mean something? Thinking about the turbulent relationship between him and Ye Haodong, I can't help but feel even more worried about this.
Some things cannot be explained in plain words, especially in front of a person like Li Huqiu who is not allowed to make mistakes. Once he has determined something, no matter how he explains it, it is impossible for him to completely let go. Because of letting go
This means increased risk.
But it would be inappropriate not to explain. After some consideration, Xu Sanxiao decided to be honest and said: "Zhang Ziwei is from Yinshan Langcheng, but I don't know about his cooperation with Gongxinshe."
Li Huqiu turned his head and glanced at Xu Sanxiao. His eyes were as deep as the blackest black hole in the universe. He stared at it for a moment, then suddenly smiled hoarsely and said, "Why are you in a hurry to explain? We are a family. I
Of course I believe that my son-in-law will not stab me in the back for a so-called brother."
Xu Sanxiao thought to himself, if you really believe it, why would you call me to this place to test it?
Li Huqiu continued: "No matter what, the relationship between you and Li Yan is irreversible. She even gave birth to a child for you. No matter what your stance and attitude are, we are already a family. I used to be with Li Yan."
You said something about Li Yan’s life experience, but you didn’t say anything about me and how I became her father.”[
Xu Sanxiao listened solemnly and said, "I have always been curious about this matter."
"Thirty-three years ago, I lived in Harbin and fell into a gang of thieves. The leader of the gang was Hao Zizi. He was a top figure in the gang. It was at that time that I met Li Yan's mother. I called her
Sister Yanzi, when I was only a few years old, I relied on her to take care of me, so I could survive in that gang of thieves and learn some good skills. Later, Sister Yanzi was forced to become
Hao Zizi’s lover, but she didn’t like Hao Zizi and shed tears every day. From then on, I vowed that one day I would let Sister Yanzi leave Hao Zizi and live a good life.”
Speaking of this past event, Li Huqiu, the unparalleled hero whose appearance remained unchanged after the collapse of Mount Tai, became surprisingly rich. Sometimes his lips smiled, showing a warm smile, and sometimes his voice was sad.
Conveying a sense of sadness and recounting the past events, Xu Sanxiao actually fell into a "fascination" listening to it.
"When I was thirteen years old, Sister Yanzi was pregnant with a child, Little Yanzi. Hao Zizi thought that Little Yanzi was a girl and ignored her. Sister Yanzi's mood dropped even more, and she fell seriously ill during her confinement.
, finally one day, she said to Xiao Yanzi in front of me, why aren't you the one who is about to die of illness? If you die, your mother will feel sorry for you. If your mother dies, leaving you alone in this world, instead of destroying you sooner or later.
In the hands of your bastard father, it would be worse than"
Li Huqiu paused and sighed: "I know what Sister Yanzi is thinking. She is actually asking me for help. Although I was only fourteen years old at the time, I also understood that once I nod, it will be a lifelong responsibility.
"
"So from then on, you became Little Yanzi's father?"
"He is the only father!" Li Huqiu said emphatically: "If it were not for them mother and daughter, maybe Li Huqiu today would just be the leader of a gang of thieves in Harbin. Sister Yanzi protected my conscience, and little Yanzi gave me
My motivation to work hard and survive many times was only because I still had such responsibilities and worries on my shoulders that I could not let go. I once promised Sister Yanzi that I would give her a happy life with all my family.
The same life as a girl.”
He turned to look at Xu Sanxiao and said: "To be honest, from the moment Xiao Yanzi was kidnapped by Zhou Zhirou and walked into the mountain to worship you, you were already a dead person in my eyes, just because of the way she talked about you.
The look in her eyes reminded me of Sister Yanzi before she fell into the clutches of Hao Zizi, so I decided to give you a chance. Later, after I found out about your life experience and the fact that Zhou Zhirou used you as an amulet, I found Guo Daoan and asked him to
Let me cooperate to test you."
Xu Sanxiao thought of that night in the mountains, when Guo Daoan used hell to test his Taoist heart.
Li Huqiu said with his forehead: "Although your personal ethics are lacking, you are still determined and persistent. You can be regarded as a man worth trusting, so I agreed to let Xiao Yanzi date you for a while." The conversation continued.
After a turn, he said: "But later, you got involved with the person named Ye, and it was at that time that Li Yan asked me to register with you. I couldn't help but think more about it, so I had to start again.
Think about your business."
Xu San smiled and said: "I remember that night in Chengdu, you personally tested me."
Li Huqiu said: "Don't blame me for being careless. My opponent is as fierce as a dragon. In my position, I have to be careful. Moreover, on the other hand, Xiao Yanzi is my first responsibility in this world. I am relieved of this burden."
Before, I had to be cautious."
Xu Sanxiao heard the hint of fulfillment in his words and tried to ask: "Don't you want to try my skills again?"
Li Huqiu smiled slightly and said, "There's no need to try. If I throw you down again now, I won't be able to kill you even without the rubber net."
Xu Sanxiao said happily: "So Uncle Li, you promised me to take Xiao Yanzi away?" [
Li Huqiu nodded with a smile and said: "But I suggest you wait until after the Chinese New Year to give birth to the child before taking her away. You have never raised a child and you don't know the hard work involved. She stays in the capital and there are experienced people at home.
It is better for adults and children to have someone take care of you. Of course, I am not saying this to force you to stay. It is just a suggestion. The girl is left to you. Marry the chicken and follow the chicken. If you are willing to take it with you to experience the bitter joy of this process,
It's all up to you." He then said, "Also, since you have registered, isn't it inappropriate to call this Uncle Li?"
Xu Sanxiao had no idea that things would go so smoothly. How could the middle-aged man with a smiling face and loving eyes in front of him still be the leader of the heavenly soldiers who caused headaches and fear to many outstanding figures in the world? Xu Sanxiao was so blessed that he quickly moved to his heart.
He knelt down and bowed down, saying, "Father-in-law."
Only halfway through the ceremony, Li Huqiu stretched out his hand to grab him and said: "Times have changed, so such a big gift is no longer necessary, and after all, you are the only person in charge."
Xu Sanxiao insisted on worshiping him and said: "I, Xu Sanxiao, am not a cheap person. I worship my parents to the heaven and the earth. You gave Li Yan to me, just like my father."
Li Huqiu joked and said: "We don't have to be too serious about this issue of generation. In fact, I'm not many years older than you. Let's start with Director He of the Religious Office. I should respect you as brother-in-law."
Speaking of He Wenyu, Xu Sanxiao wanted to explain a few words. But Li Huqiu waved his hand and said: "There is no need to explain the matter between you and Director He. That is your ability and your responsibility. I myself am also a mess in this regard."
"It's a mess. All I care about is whether Xiao Yanzi is happy with you. As far as I'm concerned, your performance is up to standard."
Xu Sanxiao nodded with shame and solemnly said: "I will never let you down."
Li Huqiu said: "I know the daughter I raised best. Xiao Yanzi is broad-minded and like her mother. She has lived with me since she was a child. She has rich experience and a little wisdom. She is more like me. Over the years, she has seen many people around me.
As a woman, it’s not surprising that she has seen a lot in this regard.”
"In addition, under the influence of her aunts, this child has a rather picky attitude towards love. Over the years, she has seen a lot of young children from wealthy families inside and outside the capital. She is not afraid of making wild remarks. She wants to be like me, Li Li.
Huqiu's son-in-law is a so-called noble man from a well-known family. You can say that he has a lot of talent, but my only criterion for choosing a son-in-law is that Xiao Yanzi likes him, and you are the only one she recognizes."
Xu San smiled and said: "This is fate, and it is the most fortunate thing in my life."
As an elder, Li Huqiu taught earnestly: "Life is full of ups and downs. When you were young, you lived alone in the rivers and lakes, and your fate was not much better than mine. Now you have accumulated a lot of hardships and gained rewards, but it is difficult to say that the road ahead will always be so smooth.
We must keep in mind that in life, success can be judged by disappointment, and the tide is at its peak. You will never regret the ups and downs, and you will eventually turn into a dragon when you meet the big tide."
These words are full of profound meaning, coming from the mouth of a great hero who has experienced many ups and downs in life. They are very alarming for Xu Sanxiao, who is currently enjoying a good life and suffers from a horse hoof disease. Judging from Li Huqiu’s tone and attitude, he has a warning for Xu Sanxiao.
His recognition is already very high. This should be regarded as a great benefit. But on the other hand, Xu Sanxiao can't help but worry that the similar loyalty between him and Ye Haodong will cause him to be in trouble between the two in the future?
Li Huqiu suddenly said: "Did you go to Baiyun Temple yesterday?"
Xu Sanxiao couldn't help but hesitate slightly.
Li Huqiu said with a smile: "The capital city is not small at all. It is an international metropolis with a population of 20 million, but it is not big at all. There are only a few points and people that really deserve our attention. He Sihang is
The heroic predecessor of the older generation is known as the only genius in Xuanmen who has the potential to compete with Li Shentong in the past century. It is said that when he was born, he was enlightened by the Xuanmen master Laogong Hanmoding. This person has been missing for more than thirty years.
He took away the control of Xuanmen as soon as he came back. How can I not pay attention to such a person when he seeks out my son-in-law for a heart-to-heart talk?"
Xu Sanxiao sighed in his heart. Li Huqiu's attitude was very kind, but it did not mean that he could rest easy. As Sister Xiangu said, this father-in-law was much more difficult to deal with than He Sihang. He Sihang was
It was clear that horses and chariots wanted to unify Xuanmen, and he could still resist and block every move, and there was He Wenyu in the middle to mediate and buffer him, so he could cope with it for a while. But the man in front of him was different. He only emphasized family.
Don't talk about the relationship at all. On the surface, they are friendly, but on the inside, they don't give Xu Sanxiao any room to choose.
Li Huqiu continued: "Speaking of Mr. He, there is another thing you probably don't know. He taught a student when he was young and is now an important figure in the Politburo. Therefore, you need to understand that although he is
A charlatan, but not just a charlatan."
Xu Sanxiao changed his mind and understood his intention, and asked tentatively: "What about you? Do you already have a position?"
"In a world of martial arts, who can be left to his own devices?" Li Huqiu said with a smile: "Of course I, a veteran of the martial arts world, am not immune to this. I can tell you this, I am a very traditional person, and my work is not as good as that of your old friend.
He is relatively conservative, but it is not that he cannot accept changes. He just hopes that the process can be gradual and always within a controllable range. However, this student of Mr. He is an impatient, radical and hard-line person. Now that person is in the hands of the head of state.
A quick knife, but if the thing you want to cut is too hard, sooner or later the knife will become dull, you know what I mean?"
Although Xu Sanxiao is just a small county party committee secretary now, because of Yinshan Wolf City, he has mastered the most well-informed information resources in the world, and his vision and structure are unmatched in the past. After synthesizing the information he has mastered, he quickly
He quickly analyzed the hidden meaning in Li Huqiu's words.
After Xie Runze came to power, the first thing he did was to use the overthrow of Song Yi to raise an anti-corruption banner. Although this move greatly pleased the people, it did not receive unanimous approval from everyone in the power circle.
The conservatives who support it advocate a step-by-step approach. There are also radicals who advocate cutting through the "mess" with a quick knife, believing that people will not wait until they can use it. The Discipline Inspection Commission headed by Fu Mingyi, Secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, is the sharp knife in Xie Runze's hands. Some people are even more unpredictable.
, waiting for the opportunity to act, waiting for Xie Runze to make mistakes and expose flaws in his anti-corruption work.
The establishment of factions within the party is not something that happens in a day or two. The meaning of Li Huqiu's words has already made clear his position and that of He Sihang. In the pattern of Chinese society formed over thousands of years, there are rivers and lakes outside and temples inside.
They compete with each other but are compatible with each other, compete with each other and complement each other. This is an eternal song that will never go out of style.
Xu Sanxiao pondered for a long time. Li Huqiu's words were clarifying his position, but at the same time, he did not necessarily mean to make himself clear his position. Let himself choose between the stable faction and the radical faction. The internal and external situation is not yet stable.
It is clear that making any choice at this period is not a wise move. Can this choice be made? Xu Sanxiao asked himself, the answer is no.
"I understand what you mean, but I can't give you an accurate answer right now. For now, I'm just a small county party secretary, and I'm not qualified to participate in this game at all. Although I don't deny that
I agree with the actions of the new head of state." Xu Sanxiao considered his words and said, "But I can tell you my opinion."
