72. Zongmen
"These things are not something he can do. What Chu Yunqing could do ended here the night Yan Hongran died."
Gongsun Zhe said: "What I said is that he can become the leader of the gang."
Zhou Min looked curious.
Zhou Yong thought of something.
"It is said that before Chu Yunqing became the gang leader, he had a competition with Ke Fang." Gongsun Zhe said: "Ke Fang is known as 'the best in horizontal training in Taiyuan Prefecture'. Chu Yunqing is young and has always been among the top. How can there be any chance in Taiyuan City?
And he has only been practicing martial arts for a few years. Even if he has good talent, there is still a gap of 20 to 30 years between him and Ke Fang. But Ke Fang was able to give up his position as gang leader and support this person. Among them, secretly It is obviously impossible if no one helps Chu Yunqing."
Zhou Min looked thoughtful.
Zhou Yong smiled slightly, "So, sir, what you want is to give him Xiaoyaosan's business?"
Gongsun Zhe also smiled, "In other words, it is for the people behind him to do it. Chu Yunqing and Chen Wu are both reckless people, but they are younger, their martial arts and ambition are not enough, and they are easier to control. Now he has become If you are the leader of the Yuanxing Gang, it will be easier to do business."
"What about the person behind him?" Zhou Yong was a little worried.
Gongsun Zhe didn't care, "If you are a true master, you will never be burdened by worldly things."
This sentence has already ruled out the possibility of the sect's intervention. After all, although their Yongwang Mansion Xiaoyaosan's property is a secret, there are always people in Taiyuan Prefecture who cannot hide it.
And even if the sect has strict rules, if they wanted to interfere, they would not wait until today.
"It should be a ranger with strong martial arts skills, or a famous person who is very quiet and restless." Gongsun Zhe said: "Anyway, it's just a change of agent. This can be regarded as our goodwill. If he understands the rules, then of course Everyone is happy, but if you are greedy, you should die!"
Zhou Yong listened.
As for the death of Xie Yuyao or An Qinghe and others, and why they died, that is not something they need to consider.
Because people die every year in Taiyuan Prefecture, it’s just a matter of status. Furthermore, if you get involved with Jianghu, you should have thought that today, you will be worthy of your death.
Gongsun Zhe said so much just now, he just explained the things investigated by Prince Yong's Palace to make Zhou Yong feel that the situation is clear. This is what he should do as an aide.
Of course, this kind of story is what Zhou Min likes to hear most, and it is also to help Zhou Fang.
"Xie Yuyao is dead. You don't have to worry about Xie Kuan." Zhou Yong glanced at his son and said, "I've already said hello at the Yamen, and the business of Huafang remains as usual."
Zhou Fang breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the Huaishui Painted Boat would not be his own in the future, and the government office would be implicated in Xie Kuan's death.
He glanced gratefully at Gongsun Zhe opposite him.
"But you have been quiet recently. Liumen is investigating Xie Yuyao's case, and the capital will send people over." Zhou Yong said: "I don't want people to think that it was you who killed Xie Kuan, and then I did it for you. Wipe your ass and just buy a murder to kill Xie Yuyao!"
Nowadays, there are already such rumors in Taiyuan City.
When Gongsun Zhe heard this, he quickly said: "My lord, please rest assured, I will definitely find out those who spread the rumors!"
Zhou Yong waved his hand, "Let sir arrange everything."
Gongsun Zhe then withdrew, and Zhou Fang also left quickly.
In the hall, only Zhou Min was eating preserves, looking like he was thinking about something.
The coldness on Zhou Yong's face faded away, and turned into pity, "Minmin, how come you haven't even heard from me in the past two years? Do you know how worried your mother and I are?"
Zhou Min came back to his senses after hearing this and snorted, "Then why didn't I hear that someone from the palace came to see me?"
Zhou Yong sighed and said somewhat helplessly: "That is the Shenwu Sect after all."
There are four major sects in Taiyuan Prefecture, and Shenwu Sect is one of them. Two years ago, Zhou Yong spent 100,000 silver to send someone to send Zhou Min there, but that was all.
He is just a prince who was kicked out of the capital.
Seeing this, Zhou Min pursed her lips and said, "Now that my daughter has become a master, she has learned some skills."
Zhou Yong shook his head, "As long as you do what makes you happy."
Zhou Min chuckled and said, "There is one thing that my father will definitely be happy to hear."
Zhou Yong looked like he was listening, but actually he didn't feel anything at all.
My daughter has been staying in the Shenwu Sect. If I want to talk about something that makes me happy, could it be that the Shenwu Sect wants to send back the one hundred thousand taels of silver to me?
Zhou Min said: "In a few days, people from the four major sects will come to Taiyuan City. I think my father can fulfill his duties as a landlord."
She knew her family's situation. In the eyes of outsiders, they were kicked out of the capital, so she wanted her father to be friendly with people from the four major sects, so that they might be able to build relationships.
She has stayed in the Shenwu Sect for two years and is well aware of the power of these sects.
But that's not what Zhou Yong was thinking about. What he was thinking about at the moment was that these people were really greedy, and this time they came shoulder to shoulder to take out their own money.
"Father?" Zhou Min was a little confused when he saw his face was gloomy and uncertain.
Zhou Yong coughed and said: "The four major sects? They usually don't go down the mountain and show their saintliness in front of others. Why do they come to Taiyuan City this time?"
"I don't know, this is what a senior brother whispered to me." After saying this, Zhou Min's face turned red as if he was shy, "He said he wanted his father to prepare in advance."
Zhou Yong was very angry and made preparations. Is this because he wanted to prepare money?
"What's the relationship with you, senior brother?" he asked.
Zhou Min was immediately unhappy.
Seeing this, Zhou Yong said: "Okay, okay, I will definitely satisfy the people of the four major sects."
Seeing Zhou Min's happy expression, Zhou Yong couldn't help but sigh in his heart and regretted sending him to the sect.
…
In the evening, Chu Yunqing heard the news of Wang Yuanzhi's death from Ke Fang.
The setting sun penetrated the window pane and cast golden afterglow on the ground.
Ke Fang stood aside, looking reserved and respectful. He would occasionally look up at the person opposite and secretly sigh at his ruthless tactics.
He had seen Chen Wu's body. He was originally a sturdy man, but his body was covered with scars from being tortured. Now he was poisoned to death, lying alone on the cold wooden board.
When burying people, even if Ke Fang had not dealt with Chen Wu before, it was inevitable that he would feel a bit sad.
And now, Wang Yuanzhi is also dead.
Ke put down his consciousness and had an extremely certain suspicion that it was Chu Yunqing who sent someone to do it.
What he was thinking must be that in the early morning, the other party had not reached an agreement with Wang Yuanzhi, so he directly killed him and eradicated his dissidents.
It's really cruel and ruthless. Ke Fang feels that this is not very moral.
"What are you thinking about?" Chu Yunqing asked.
Ke Fang learned his lesson this time and knew to think through his thoughts before speaking, "I was thinking about how Wang Yuanzhi died."
"Yeah, how did he die?" Chu Yunqing was also confused.
