A knife in love

Chapter 1255

After the servant woman withdrew, Wang Xiaoyu pursed her lips and said to Wang Yuanwai: "Dad, have you seen it? You said that the family affairs are handled by the daughter, but even such trivial matters as arranging banquets, they don't care about it." If you don’t listen to me, you have to ask your father to make a decision. Alas, I see that they look down on their daughter at all. If Dad doesn’t give her daughter a reputation, they don’t know what methods they will use to make things difficult for her!”

The king smiled and said: "You have such a hot temper, how dare they make you angry? Xiaoyu, these people work hard every day, and it is not easy to make a living. We father and daughter have a lot to rely on them. You must not deliberately embarrassing them."

Wang Xiaoyu said: "They pretended to be respectful servants in front of daddy, but in front of me they just ignored each other and acted like yin and yang. There are also some nasty house slaves who have sinister intentions and sow discord in front of daddy. , in an attempt to destroy our Wangjiazhuang."

Wang Yuanwai's complexion changed, and he said in his mouth: "Children, don't talk nonsense and make Mr. Zhu and Miss Murong laugh at you. How can we, father and daughter, have any face?"

Wang Xiaoyu said: "Wu Laosi is a living example! He relied on the favor of Miss Wu, flaunted his power in the Zhuangzi, attracted a group of people with foreign surnames, and wanted to take Daddy's position as the owner of the Zhuangzi..."

Wang Yuanwai didn't wait for Wang Xiaoyu to finish speaking, and said in a deep voice: "Enough! What are you talking about with these messy things? When you have a distinguished guest, don't be so rude!"

Wang Xiaoyu said: "This matter has something to do with Mr. Zhu, otherwise I don't need to mention it to my father. Mr. Zhu went to Jinan Mansion to do some business. He encountered wind and waves at sea, and the ship was damaged and drifted to Dongliao County. In order to repair the mast Mr. Zhu's friends came to our Wangjiazhuang to buy wood. Mr. Wu and his confidantes were gambling in the concierge. They resented Mr. Zhu's friends for disturbing them, but they didn't report it to their father. Hit him and drive Mr. Zhu's friend out of Zhuangzi."

Wang Yuanwai was greatly surprised, glanced at Wang Xiaoyu, and said in his mouth, "Is this true?"

Li Qiufeng saw that Wang Xiaoyu was speaking solemnly, and was about to explain a few words, but he heard Wang Xiaoyu say: "Of course it is true! In order to cover up the scandal of him gathering people to gamble and defrauding his father, Li Qiufeng simply did nothing. He continued to sow discord, and accused Mr. Zhu's friend of going to Motianling to steal wood..."

Wang Yuanwai's face changed drastically, and before Wang Xiaoyu finished speaking, he said in a deep voice: "This evil slave dares to do such an evil thing and turned against him!"

Murong Danyan thought to himself, although Wu Laosi is domineering, but the idea of ​​ambushing Li Qiufeng and others on Motian Ridge was Wang Xiaoyu's own idea, and it has nothing to do with Wu Laosi.Wang Xiaoyu framed the fourth brother Wu, naturally he was dissatisfied with the Wu brothers for a long time, and wanted to take this opportunity to drive them out of Zhuangzi.

I only heard Wang Xiaoyu say: "Daughter mistakenly believed Wu Laosi's lies, and brought people to Motianling last night, and almost had a conflict with Mr. Zhu's friends. Fortunately, Sister Murong and Mr. Zhu mediated, so there was no harm." Dirty things happened. And after what happened last night, my daughter found out that Wu Laosi had formed his own party in Zhuangzi, with considerable influence. The Zheng brothers and Mao Laoer exposed the treachery of the Wu family brothers and sisters. They were so bold that they even wanted to assassinate Daddy, took away Daddy's family property, then drove the Wang clan out of Wangjiazhuang, and changed this village into Wujiazhuang."

The more Wang Yuanwai listened, the more astonished he became, and his face turned livid.Li Qiufeng sat on the side, thinking that what Wang Xiaoyu said was not true, probably because she had long wanted to deal with the brothers and sisters of the Wu family, but the girl of Wu University was quite popular with Wang Yuanwai, and it would not be easy to bring down the two brothers and sisters thing.It just so happened that he accompanied Xiao Dong to Motianling to steal wood, and Wu Lao Si was so arrogant and domineering that he overstepped his position and was finally caught by Wang Xiaoyu.She took the opportunity to take down the fourth brother Wu, and made a lot of slander outside the king. Naturally, she wanted to eradicate the brothers and sisters of the Wu family as well as her confidants, which got rid of her big worry.

I only heard Wang Yuanwai say: "This matter has a lot to do with it, and it needs to be discussed in the long term. Don't worry about it, let your Uncle Wang go and find out."

Wang Xiaoyu wanted to say more, but seeing Wang Yuanwai's unkind expression, he could only nod his head.At this moment, someone outside the door said respectfully: "Master, the wine and food have been set up in the Wanghua Pavilion. Please move to the back garden to have a meal with the master and the distinguished guests."

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan followed Wang's father and daughter out of the main hall, walked through five yards in a row, and finally arrived in the back garden.The further Li Qiufeng walked, the more frightened he became, thinking to himself that for an ordinary rich family, it is rare to enter the courtyard three times.Wang Yuanwai is just a merchant who sells medicinal materials. It is unbelievable that he can build such a large-scale house.No wonder there are rumors that there is a cornucopia hidden in his home. If you see the situation in this yard, it is hard to believe that he is just a self-made medicine dealer.

When I walked into the back garden, I saw a huge pond in front of me, surrounded by green grass on the bank, which was very evenly trimmed.A nine-curved stone bridge was built on the pond, and an octagonal pavilion stood in the middle.The pavilion is more than ten feet high, with red pillars and a green roof. There is a stone table and six stone benches inside the pavilion.At this time, the stone table was already full of wine and dishes, and the four servants stood at the four corners of the pavilion, serving carefully.

Wang Yuanwai let Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan into the pavilion, and after the guests and hosts sat down, he waved his right hand lightly, and the four servants quietly exited the pavilion and walked to the shore.The six or seven servants who had been waiting around the pond saw the four servants retreating to the shore, so they walked out of the back garden with the four of them.As a result, only the father and daughter of the Wang family, Li Qiufeng, and Murong Danyan were left in the huge back garden.

When Li Qiufeng entered the back garden, he felt a little strange.This back garden occupies a very large area, but there is no tree, only green grass and short flowers are planted on the bank, making the whole garden appear empty.The pavilion stands upright in the center of the pool, and is set off by the grass and flowers on the surrounding banks, making it appear taller and taller.Li Qiufeng thought to himself that trees were not allowed to be planted in the imperial palace of the capital because they were afraid of assassins who would hide on the big trees and not be able to detect them.However, many trees were planted in the imperial garden, and there were rockeries with strange shapes made of Taihu stones.Wang Yuanwai is just a wealthy family outside the pass, it is a bit strange that there are no trees in the house, and there is not even a big tree in the garden, isn't it extremely weird?

When Li Qiufeng was thinking about it, he saw Wang Yuanwai holding up his wine glass and said to him: "Young Master Zhu's presence is a great joy. As the saying goes, listening to the king's words is better than reading ten years of books. I just talked with Mr. Zhu I am very happy and have benefited a lot. If there is a chance in the future, we can do some business together and make a fortune together! Come on, Mr. Zhu, Miss Murong, let's drink this toast, and talk about Wang's sincerity in welcoming guests."

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan stood up hurriedly, held up the wine glasses with both hands, and thanked them repeatedly.Wang Yuanwai was full of joy, and handed over the wine glass, wanting to clink glasses with Li Qiufeng.Li Qiufeng went forward with the cup in both hands, and at the same time moved his hands down a bit to show respect.Seeing that the wine glasses of the two were about to touch one place, Li Qiufeng subtly channeled his internal energy, a stream of true energy rose from his dantian, gathered at the Tanzhong acupoint on his chest, then separated from the left and right, passed through the Shoulder Jing acupoint on both shoulders, and passed through the elbows of the left and right arms The pool point has been spread to the cup held in both hands.

The cup in Wang Yuanwai's hand touched Li Qiufeng's wine glass lightly, and suddenly he felt his palms warm up, and the small wine glass sank instantly, and fell out of his hands.

Wang Yuanwai turned pale with fright, seeing the wine glass fall from his hand, straight to the bowls and dishes on the table.In a blink of an eye, a hand suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, which was holding the bottom of the falling wine glass, holding the wine glass firmly in the palm of his hand.Wang Yuanwai was surprised and delighted, and looked intently, but it was Li Qiufeng who stretched out his right hand to hold the cup that he had dropped at the critical moment.He reached out to take the glass, and said with a smile: "I'm getting old, I can't even hold a small wine glass steadily."

Murong Danyan's heart trembled.Although her internal strength is limited, she can also see that when Li Qiufeng clinked glasses with Wang Yuanwai, he had subtly channeled his internal strength, and took advantage of the opportunity to attack Wang Yuanwai.It seems that the wine glass in Wang Yuanwai's hand fell to the table because of his momentary mistake, but in fact, he was excited by Li Qiufeng's internal force, which made Wang Yuanwai unable to hold it and dropped it.It's just that Li Qiufeng's martial arts are superb, and his internal energy can be sent and received freely.After Zhenqi touched Wang Yuanwai's cup, he immediately put it back.Wang Yuanwai just felt that his hand sank and the cup had already dropped, but he didn't realize that Li Qiufeng had tampered with it.When the cup fell off from Wang Yuanwai's hand, Li Qiufeng caught the cup like lightning.If Wang Yuanwai was armed with martial arts, when Li Qiufeng approached with internal force, he would naturally counterattack with internal force, and the cup would never fall so easily.When Murong Danyan saw Li Qiufeng's behavior like this, he became suspicious. He thought to himself that elder brother Li attacked Wang Yuanwai with internal force, but then withdrew his true energy in an instant. Obviously, he just wanted to test whether Wang Yuanwai had martial arts skills, not to fight with Wang Yuanwai. Outside the staff.Wang Yuanwai is generous and kind, but Brother Li is so tempting to him. Could it be that he has other plans?
