Li Chengqi shouted sharply: "Who are you?"

"Husband..." The woman who was accompanying him was about to speak, but she was interrupted by Li Chengqi after only saying two words.

"Don't say anything, I'm asking about her." Li Chengqi stretched out his finger and pointed at the strange woman sitting on the other side.

He quickly looked around with his eyes, and immediately realized that the woman who appeared in front of him had an unusual identity. Just because of her demeanor and grace, she could not be compared to ordinary people.

"I have admired Li Chengqi for a long time."

The strange woman stretched out her hand and said, "Don't panic, sit down and talk."

The strange woman had clear eyes and a smile on her lips. This behavior was obviously friendly. After the moment of confusion, Li Chengqi finally calmed down.

"How should I call you?" Li Chengqi pulled up his chair and sat down.

"If we want to talk about something, Xiaoya is not suitable here. Let your wife take Xiaoya away first." The woman said calmly.

"Yaling, take Xiaoya to another house and I'll talk to this person." Li Chengqi said immediately.

"Husband, I'm going right away."

Yaling stood up and took Xiaoya out of the house very wisely, leaving only two people in the house.

"My surname is Jiang, and this is my identity token." Zi Yan took out a metal token and put it on the table.

The name and position of the bearer is engraved on the token, which is specially made by the Hidden Guard. Now the Hidden Guard established by Yang Ruoqing has basically been included in the Hidden Guard system, and everyone has a dual identity.

The identity of the hidden guard is in the open, and the identity of the hidden guard is in the dark. Generally, the identity token of the hidden guard is shown to the outside world.

"Jiang Ziyan, you are the commander of the hidden guards, so what is the purpose of Commander Jiang's visit?" Li Chengqi put his hands flat on the table. As the elder of the Li family, he has experienced a lot of ups and downs, and he still has the skills to nourish his energy.

"Elder Li Chengqi, you are raising Ya Ling and Xiao Ya outside. What will be the consequences if your wife finds out?" Zi Yan raised the corners of her lips.

Mrs. Li Chengqi's identity is not ordinary, she is the daughter of Prince Jin.

The reason why Li Chengqi could inherit the position of elder was because of his marriage to Prince Jin's daughter, which meant that the Li family had a relationship with this important figure, Prince Jin.

King Jin's fiefdom is in the northwest. He is powerful and loyal to the royal family. The current emperor Qi Xingyun trusts King Jin very much and does not recall him to the capital. Instead, he lets him guard the northwest.

The daughter of King Jin had an extremely strong character. From the day she married Li Chengqi, she was not allowed to take concubines, let alone visit brothels.

If she were to find out that Li Chengqi had an outhouse and a five-year-old daughter without telling her, that would be terrible. She would cause a huge commotion, and even divorce Li Chengqi.

Once Li Chengqi and his wife fall out, he will definitely not be able to keep his position as the elder of the Li family, and he will lose all his power in front of him.

For Li Chengqi, who had a strong desire for power, this was even more unacceptable than killing him.

"what do you want?"

Li Chengqi spoke, his voice a little hoarse.

"Elder Li, we can help you conceal this matter, and we can even help you eliminate hidden dangers so that your wife will never know about it for the rest of her life..." Zi Yan paused.

"Just tell me, what do you want? There are some things that I, Li Chengqi, can do, but there are some things that I, Li Chengqi, can't do!" Li Chengqi's hands on the table clenched into fists.

"I want you to meet someone first, come with me." Zi Yan did not answer Li Chengqi's question directly, but stood up and walked towards the study room at the back.

This house is quite large, with everything you need inside, such as a study, a kitchen, a bedroom, an outer hall, a wing...all kinds of screens, vases, calligraphy and paintings, and other furnishings. They are low-key but meaningful and not something that ordinary people can afford.

.

The study is not far from the outer hall. After crossing two thresholds, you enter the study.

The study room is not big, and there is a large pear wood table. There are many books on the cabinet next to it. There are also many children's copybooks on the table, one stroke at a time, and they are stylish.

Zi Yan found a yellow pear wood chair, sat down and said, "Elder Li, he will be here soon."

Li Chengqi didn't hesitate to find a place to sit down. After all, this was also his home, and he personally selected the tables and chairs in the study.

Li Chengqi sat upright and kept his mouth shut. Not long after, footsteps came from outside the door.

"Why is it you!" Li Chengqi couldn't help being surprised when he saw the appearance of the person who came in.

He really didn't expect that the second young master Li Qingyuan would appear in front of him!

"Uncle Six, it's me." Li Qingyuan said.

"It's not simple. I thought Li Qingsong was a tiger, but it turns out he is just a cat in tiger skin. The real tiger is you." Li Chengqi laughed while stroking his hands.

This time was unexpected, but it removed his biggest worry. It was not just that others wanted to seize the Li family's property. As for the internal struggle of the Li family, when had it stopped for more than a hundred years?

"Uncle Six, I want you to help me." Li Qingyuan said directly.

However, his lack of beating around the bush made Li Chengqi think highly of him. Li Chengqi thought for a while and said, "Do you want to seize that position now or later?"

"The sooner the better. Uncle Liu, you don't know that I was almost assassinated yesterday. If I don't take action, I will be the one who dies." Li Qingyuan said.

"I assassinate you openly!" Li Chengqi showed a look of shock on his face: "This is a violation of the rules."

The Li family naturally has the Li family's family rules. Fighting for power is actually not a bad thing. It is like raising poison, raising the strongest one among them. However, the Li family's rules do not allow explicit assassination. If they do this, Li will

The house was in complete chaos.

Not only the Li family, but also the Ji family, another powerful family in Sixiang City, and other families all have similar rules.

"They were the ones who broke the rules first, so you can't blame me. I want Uncle Six to propose changing the head of the family at this month's regular meeting!" Li Qingyuan narrowed his eyes.

"This is too difficult. Three of the six elders are your father's loyal supporters. Unless your father is willing to pass on the throne, they will not support you." Li Chengqi shook his head.

"Uncle Six, don't worry about this. Just go ahead and mention it. I will have a solution when the time comes." Li Qingyuan said confidently.

"You want to borrow the power of the imperial guards, right? Borrowing the power of the imperial court is not a bad thing, but the imperial court may not be able to help you." Li Chengqi said slowly. As he spoke, he glanced at Zi Yan who was sitting beside him.

"Of course the imperial court has the power to help him. From now on, the Li family will be loyal to the imperial court and will only become more powerful in the future." Zi Yan said with raised lips.
