Chapter 162 Taking a Concubine【Request】

Yue Buqun looked at Li Huan, and said to Li Huan with a guilty conscience: "My lord, did your subordinate say something wrong?"

Li Huan put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, glanced at Yue Buqun and said, "Does Yue Baihu know the relationship between the Lin family of the Fuwei Escort Bureau and this officer?"

Hearing what Li Huan said, Yue Buqun couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. These people in the world never think too much about official affairs.

They naturally knew about the past of the Lin family in the Fuzhou Fuwei Escort Bureau. Back then, Lin Yuantu used his 72-way evil swordsmanship to defeat almost invincible opponents in the world.

Even today, the prestige of the Lin family's 72-way evil swordsmanship is still circulating on the rivers and lakes.

But what they were concerned about was only the Lin family. As for the background of the Lin family, to be honest, no one really thought about it.

In fact, this is also normal. The previous generation of Lin and Li's family is indeed a cousin relationship. This relationship is indeed very close. Even in this era, it can be said that the bones are broken.

But this kind of relationship is known to only a few close people, how many outsiders will pay attention to it.

Even if it is placed in later generations, even if it is an excellent close friend with you, it is impossible for you to know what relatives the other party has.

What's more, Yue Buqun came to Fuzhou because of the Lin family, and he didn't think about asking about the background of the Lin family. Besides, even if he did, he might not be able to find out.

I didn't see that Huang Wenzheng, the magistrate of Fuzhou, didn't know the relationship between the Lin family and Li Huan before, and those wealthy businessmen in Fuzhou who had been friends with the Lin family for many years didn't know the relationship between the Lin and Li families. It is conceivable that Yue Buqun It would be strange to know the relationship between the Lin family and Li Huan.

Taking a deep breath, Yue Buqun glanced at Li Huan and said in a low voice, "This subordinate doesn't know!"

He glanced at Yue Buqun faintly, and he knew that Yue Buqun's coming to Fuzhou must have the idea of ​​fighting against evil swords, but compared to the Qingcheng faction who came directly to kill them, Yue Buqun didn't want to destroy all the people. At most, they just want to take advantage of the chaos.

No matter what your intentions are, at least it's better than Qingcheng sending up to destroy the Lin family, isn't it?

Besides, now that Yue Buqun has joined him, it is naturally impossible for Yue Buqun to try to get the Lin family's ideas in the future.

"Boss Lin's aunt is the officer's grandmother, and the Lin and Li families are cousins!"

"what!"

Yue Buqun was stunned when he heard Li Huan's words, apparently he did not expect that the Lin family had such a big backer as Li Huan.

Cousin is not a joke in this era, I dare not say that one is prosperous and the other is damaged, but if something happens to the Lin family, the Li family will definitely not stand idly by, not to mention that Yue Buqun heard about the old lady of the Li family not long ago. But it's still here.

That is to say, with that old lady around, the relationship between the Lin and Li families will only appear closer, and there will be no slight estrangement. With Li Huan as a big backer, whoever seeks trouble for the Lin family is not seeking death !

For a moment, Yue Buqun couldn't help feeling a little rejoicing, luckily he didn't think of doing harm to the Lin family, otherwise, he might have offended someone unknowingly today.

Yue Buqun hurriedly said: "I don't know about the relationship between you and the Lin family, and I thought about using the Lin family's evil sword manual earlier, please forgive me!"

Li Huan waved his hand and said: "As the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, and you don't know the relationship between the Lin family and me. Besides, didn't you do nothing to the Lin family!"

When he came back to his senses, Yue Buqun also came to his senses, he was only worried about his back and was afraid, but he forgot that he just had some thoughts about the Lin family, but he didn't put them into action.

While exhaling, Yue Buqun said: "My lord, my subordinate Tanzhi Qingcheng faction sent people here a few days ago, and now the head of the school, Yu Canghai, has brought people out of Sichuan and Sichuan. They came rushing to Fuzhou Mansion. Maybe those Qingcheng sect disciples have figured out the reality of the Fuwei Escort Bureau, and it will be bad for the Lin family."

Li Huan said with a light smile: "Come on, just come, it's just a Qingcheng faction, if you want to make an idea of ​​the Lin family, you have to see if the official agrees."

Seeing that the food was about to run out, a loud voice said: "Cousin, cousin, I heard that you are going back to Langqi Island, can you take me with you, I haven't seen my aunt for some time. "

I saw a strong, handsome and upright last year walking over under the guidance of a Jinyiwei captain, whoever it was if it wasn't Lin Pingzhi.

When Li Huan saw Lin Pingzhi, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Huan's mouth. To be honest, this was the first time he and Lin Pingzhi met since the farewell.

Compared with a few years ago, Lin Pingzhi's whole person has obviously undergone earth-shaking changes.

At the beginning, Lin Pingzhi looked extremely handsome, white and tender, with the demeanor of a rich man, but now he is obviously much stronger than before, especially when he walks, he is calm and powerful, and his eyes are shining brightly , is obviously a manifestation of successful cultivation.

While Li Huan was looking at Lin Pingzhi, Lin Pingzhi was also looking at his cousin.

From Lin Pingzhi's point of view, his cousin's experience in the past few years is simply a legend. Back then, there were only a hundred households. He thought he entered Beijing, and then he fell silent.

I never imagined that it would be great blessings and equal heaven, won the favor of the emperor, and since then it has been on a steady rise, and now it is out of control, and now it is even more valuable as the commander of Jinyiwei, the commander of the Chinese army's governor's mansion, and the emperor's imperial envoy. Hard work can't be touched in a lifetime.

But my cousin has achieved such an achievement at a young age.

Of course, what moved Lin Pingzhi the most was that Li Huan had helped the Lin family through a difficult time because of their status and the relationship between the two families before they arrived in Fuzhou City.

Those wealthy businessmen who previously blocked the door of their Lin family, now not only dare not block the door of their house anymore, they even took the initiative to curry favor with the Lin family, and handed over a lot of voices to the Fuwei Escort of the Lin family.

As for Li Huan's killing spree in Fuzhou City, Lin Pingzhi is no longer the simple and naive rich man he was back then.

Even Lin Pingzhi secretly followed Li Hu, Li Guo and others to the sea to kill pirates, which is no longer what it used to be.

Lin Pingzhi was naturally on Li Huan's side, he didn't care whether Li Huan killed people or not, anyway, as long as it was not good for Li Huan, in Lin Pingzhi's opinion, he should be killed.

However, although Lin Pingzhi has changed a lot, his mind has actually not changed much. When he saw Li Huan, he immediately forgot many of the words Lin Zhennan told him when he came.

Li Huan smiled and stood up to meet Lin Pingzhi, saying that Li Huan was quite happy that Lin Pingzhi didn't see him like this.

The relationship between him and Lin Pingzhi is not bad, if the relationship between the two becomes estranged because of their identities, then it is not what he wants to see.

When he got close, Li Huan punched Lin Pingzhi bluntly and said, "Xiao Linzi, come, let my cousin see if you have been lazy in the past two years."

Lin Pingzhi's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he walked up to Li Huan without hesitation.

If the Jin Yiwei next to him didn't know Lin Pingzhi's identity, he probably couldn't help but try to stop him.

With a bang, the two fists collided, and Lin Pingzhi let out an exclamation. He was thrown away by a soft force, and even sat down on the ground.

Li Huan tried out Lin Pingzhi's cultivation progress in the past two years with just one move. It has to be said that Lin Pingzhi has been stimulated in the past two years, and he has really studied hard and practiced hard, and he has improved a lot.

This strength alone may be a little worse than Linghu Chong's, but it's not too bad.

At least against the members of the Qingcheng faction, unless Yu Canghai did it himself, no one in the Qingcheng faction was Lin Pingzhi's opponent.

Lin Pingzhi stood up, looked at Li Huan in surprise, and said, "Cousin, Uncle Yidao said that I have made great progress in the past few years. Looking at the Jianghu, I am also a second-rate expert. Even if I meet the first-rate A strong person can also make a few moves, but now you can't even take one move from you, your progress is too fast."

Yue Buqun next to him walked over from Lin Pingzhi, and fought against Li Huan without even caring about Li Huan's identity. Combined with the mutual address between the two, Yue Buqun even guessed Lin Pingzhi's identity.

"Is this the young master of the Lin family in Fuzhou? Just look at his strength, although he is not as strong as Chong'er, he can be regarded as the best among his peers. The Lin family of Fuzhou really has a long history of family education and a profound heritage."

Apparently, Lin Zhennan attributed Lin Pingzhi's cultivation to the Lin family's family background.

After all, the Lin family's No. 72 evil-fighting swordsmanship is well-known. Since they have such a great reputation, it is only natural that there are so many martial arts masters among the Lin family's children, isn't it?

Even Yue Buqun is now secretly guessing that Lin Zhennan has been guarding the Fuwei Escort for so many years, he has not shown any signs, even faced the temptations of many interested people in the rivers and lakes, and has not responded in the slightest. Isn't this hiding his clumsiness?
Thinking that Lin Zhennan may have a strong cultivation base, even if he has half of Lin Yuantu's cultivation base back then, anyone who dares to take advantage of the Lin family will suffer a big loss at that time.

Yue Buqun couldn't help but think of Yu Canghai, who was bringing his disciples to Fuzhou to find trouble with the Lin family, and even looked forward to it. If Yu Canghai bumped into the hidden Lin Zhennan, he didn't know what expression he would have.

Li Huan, who was talking to Lin Pingzhi, probably never dreamed that Yue Buqun would make up so much because of Lin Pingzhi's performance.

When Lin Pingzhi's eyes fell on Lianqiao, he couldn't help being stunned, and then he reacted, and said to Lianqiao: "Little brother has seen sister-in-law!"

Obviously Lin Pingzhi saw Lianqiao's womanly attire, needless to say, he must have been brought into the room by his cousin.

Lin Pingzhi was aware of the relationship between Forsythia and Li Huan after staying in Langqi Island for so long, so he was not surprised at all that Li Huan took over Li Huan's house. Forsythia salute.

Being called sister-in-law, Lian Qiao blushed immediately, she quickly shook her head and said, "Mr. Lin, don't make fun of Lian Qiao, Lian Qiao is just a little maid next to you. How can he be called Mrs. Lin's sister-in-law. "

Seeing this, Li Huan laughed and said, "Why can't it be done?"

Lian Qiao's pretty face flushed, she turned away in shame.

Li Huan shouted at Lianqiao's back: "Lianqiao, pack up your things quickly, we are about to go home."

As he spoke, Li Huan looked at Lin Pingzhi and said, "How is my cousin?"

Lin Pingzhi said with a smile: "Father is in good health, I miss my cousin Lao."

Li Huan nodded slightly and said: "I haven't visited my cousin in the past few days, but I was rude, but right now I am in a hurry to go back to Langqi Island. After a while, I will visit my cousin in person."

Lin Pingzhi hurriedly said: "What did my cousin say? My father said that you are now an important minister of the court and you are busy with official duties. If it wasn't for fear of delaying your affairs, he would have come to see you in person."

Li Huan smiled and said: "Anyway, it's my fault, I'll just apologize to my cousin."

As he spoke, he glanced at Yue Buqun standing aside, his heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Pingzhi, come on, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Yue Buqun, one of the most powerful men in the world today. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask Mr. Yue for advice."

Lin Pingzhi had actually noticed Yue Buqun standing beside him just now, especially Yue Buqun's official uniform of Jin Yiwei Baihu.

Now, after hearing Li Huan's introduction, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Fuwei Escort, Lin Pingzhi has met Mr. Yue."

It was fine if Yue Buqun didn't know Lin Pingzhi's identity, but since he knew Lin Pingzhi's identity, especially when he saw Lin Pingzhi and Li Huan getting along like brothers just now, he naturally didn't dare to judge his identity. Ping Zhi bowed to him, quickly dodged slightly and cupped his hands and said: "Mr. Lin is too polite, Yue is ashamed."

Li Huan looked at Yue Buqun and Lin Pingzhi, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said: "Yue Baihu, Pingzhi's aptitude is not bad, and his temperament is not bad. If someone really finds you, you have to give him some advice." Fan is."

Yue Buqun hurriedly said: "My lord, don't worry, my subordinates will remember."

A large ship left the port and headed straight for Langqi Islet.

On the same boat were Lin Pingzhi, Yue Buqun, Lianqiao, Li Guo, Li Hu, Zhao Zhi and others.

As for Chen Yidao and Cao Yu, they were left by Li Huan in the Lin family and continued to sit in town. After all, Yue Buqun had also said earlier that the people from the Qingcheng faction seemed to be rushing to Fuzhou.

Even he didn't know when Yu Canghai went to the Lin family, so just in case, Chen Yidao and Cao Yu were left behind.

I believe there are two people there, even if Yu Canghai really brought someone to trouble the Lin family, it would be enough to keep the Lin family safe.

Standing on the big boat, the sea breeze is blowing towards you, and the coolness is mixed with the faint fishy smell of the sea breeze.

Zhao Zhi looked at the big boat under his feet with joy at the moment.

This big ship is not small at all. It can be said that in that port, there were almost none that could compare to this big ship.

Their Li family didn't have such a big ship before, and they had no way to buy such a big ship even if they had money. In that shipyard, such a big ship had already been booked by those high-ranking officials and wealthy families.

And this one was just one of the hundreds of large and small ships in the property of the Cai family that had been confiscated.

For such a large ship, Li Huan rowed as many as a dozen for the Li family with a light row before. It can be said that the number of ships owned by the Li family has soared from three to five to forty or fifty. There are so many ships.

Moreover, these ships are all the most excellent large ships selected by Li Huan. It can be said that these dozens of ships may not be able to be bought by ordinary people even if they spend tens of thousands of taels of silver.

"My lord, our Li family has so many more ships all of a sudden, the manpower is a bit short."

These dozens of ships require hundreds of sailors alone. The Li family had only three or five small boats before, but now that the number of ships has skyrocketed, the number of sailors required has increased tenfold.

That's the way it is said, but just looking at the happy smile on Zhao Zhi's face, you can tell that this is completely the trouble of happiness.

Zhao Zhi is almost like the chief steward of the Li family. It can be said that the Li family has received so many benefits this time, and Zhao Zhi is definitely one of the happiest people.

Glancing at Zhao Zhi, Li Huan smiled slightly and said, "Then Uncle Zhi, go recruit people. This time the Cai family, the Gu family and other families have been ransacked and exterminated. Invite to listen to it."

Zhao Zhi nodded and said: "Young Master, don't worry, I've ordered people to recruit people, and I will definitely help you manage Li's family business in an orderly manner."

While speaking, two small boats appeared on the sea. When these two small boats saw the flag of the Li family flying above the big ship from a distance, they immediately rushed up to meet it.

When Zhao Zhi saw the two small boats, his eyes lit up, and he quickly said to Li Huan: "My lord, it should be the madam, the old madam who sent someone to welcome the young master."

At this moment, Li Huan also saw that the people on the two small boats were the elders of the Li family. Needless to say, Feng and the old lady Lin sent these people to come.

Greeted by semaphore, two small boats led the way. Not long after, Li Huan's boat stopped at a pier.

When Li Huan and the others got off the boat, they saw several clan elders greet Li Huan with excited faces.

When he got close, he saluted Li Huan and said, "I've seen the Patriarch!"

Although Li Huan is not very old, he is from the direct line of the Li family in Langqi. After Li Xian's death, the head of the Li family is naturally Li Huan.

A few years ago, several clan elders thought that the Li family would decline from then on, but they never expected that in the blink of an eye, Li Huan had jumped from a small official of a hundred households to a commander of the Jinyiwei, a member of the Chinese army. The governor of the governor's mansion signed the affairs, and became the imperial envoy of the emperor to inspect the southeast.

The change in identity was so great that these clan elders thought they were in a dream.

Right behind these clan elders, there was a dense mass of people. The entire Langqi Islet was actually only 3000 to [-] people, but looking at it now, it seems that there are no less than a thousand people.

In other words, at least half of the Li clan members on the island and the people dependent on the Li clan came to welcome Li Huan back home.

Under the leadership of several clan elders, those members of the Li clan and the common people all bowed to Li Huan and said, "Welcome Patriarch home!"

Seeing this scene, Li Huan took a deep breath, stepped forward, helped several clan elders up, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Everyone, get up quickly!"

Seeing this scene, Li Guo, Li Hu and others who were following Li Huan couldn't help showing envy in their eyes.

Lin Pingzhi even opened his eyes wide and muttered softly: "Cousin is really too majestic, a man should be like that!"

On the contrary, Du Guang, Chen Yao and the others had seen Li Huan patrolling thousands of Jin Yiwei. Compared with such a big scene, although the scene of Li Huan returning home in Jin Yi Jin was not small, it was a bit worse after all.

Of course, in comparison, the feelings are different. Touring the Jinyiwei is a powerful and high-ranking person, but now the tribe and the people welcome it, which is a kind of pride and pride.

The patriarch Li Zheng was from Li Huan's grandfather's generation. Li Huan's grandfather was a legitimate son, and Li Zheng was a concubine. Speaking of which, Li Huan wanted to call Li Zheng an uncle.

Li Zheng, who was in his sixtieth year, looked at Li Huan, who was inadvertently exuding power, the joy in his eyes was not to mention how obvious.

"The ancestors of the Li family have spirits in the sky, and my Li family is finally expected to prosper!"

Following Li Huan off the boat was a group of Jin Yiwei. Surrounded by the Jin Yiwei, Li Huan naturally ran towards Li's mansion.

The people around looked at Li Huan, who was surrounded by Jin Yiwei, with pride and pride in their eyes. This is their patriarch and support.

It is said that one person can ascend to heaven, this sentence is not an exaggeration in this era, if Li Huan is in such a high position and has great power, then these tribesmen can more or less get some glory.

Not to mention other things, just look at the Cai, He, and Qian families that have taken root in Fuzhou Prefecture. Because of the appointment of high-ranking officials like Cai Wen and Qian Zhong, their clansmen soared into the sky, and they have gained a lot of benefits overtly and secretly.

Of course, there are good and bad among the clansmen, and many clansmen with low moral character fight against them, which naturally arouses a lot of hatred for each clan.

Naturally, Li Huan could feel the gazes of these clansmen and common people. If it were an ordinary person, he would have been lost in it, but Li Huan maintained enough sobriety.

After reading so many cases about people from different clans fighting against each other for evil, Li Huan couldn't help but his thoughts wandered when he saw the excited eyes of these clansmen, and he became a little vigilant.

However, Li Huan didn't think too much at this time. Regarding these issues, he had already had some ideas in his mind, and he had made arrangements for these clansmen, and he wouldn't be too worried that these clansmen would use his name to do evil. .

All he wanted at the moment was to meet his mother Feng and grandmother Lin.

After a few years of separation, there were only a few letters. It would be a lie to say that Li Huan didn't miss his relatives.

Along the way, the young boys and boys of the clan ran in front, shouting: "The Patriarch is back, the Patriarch is back!"

Soon the group arrived in front of Li's old house.

The Li family's old house has a history of several decades. Although it has been repaired several times, it is still somewhat dilapidated.

But for Li Huan, this old house is the home in his memory, just looking at it, a wave of emotion can't help but come to his heart.

At the door, surrounded by maids and servants, Feng Shi and Lin Shi looked at Li Huan eagerly and expectantly.

Seeing the two, Li Huan took a deep breath, stepped forward to bow to them and said: "The son has met his mother, and the grandson kowtowed to the grandmother."

Tears glistened in Feng's eyes, he hurriedly helped Li Huan up and said, "My Huan'er, it's good to be back, it's good to be back."

Grandmother Lin looked at Li Huan lovingly with a smile on her face.

Pulling Li Huan into the living room, Feng Shizai looked at Li Huan carefully, and then said: "You child, you have been away for several years, mother wants to kill you, and I don't know how to come back to see you. one look."

On the other hand, Mrs. Lin said with a smile: "My dear grandson is going to do big things. The capital went to Fujian and traveled thousands of miles. Even if Huan'er has wings, he can't fly back every day."

Holding Li Huan's hand, Feng Shi wiped away tears and said to the maid beside her, "Hurry up and get the pastry I made for Huan'er."

Li Huan talked with Feng Shi and Lin Shi without the slightest impatience.

After more than an hour, a maid came in and said in a low voice: "Madam, old lady, several clan elders are waiting for the young master outside, saying that the auspicious time is approaching, and they want the young master to worship the ancestors!"

Lin nodded and said: "Yes, yes, Huan'er is honoring his ancestors this time, so he should go to worship and comfort his ancestors."

Said Lin said to Li Huan: "Huan'er, go quickly, don't miss the auspicious time."

Feng Shi on the side also nodded at Li Huan.

Then Li Huan got up and said goodbye to Feng and Lin, leaving Lianqiao to accompany them, and left the inner hall by himself. When Li Huan came to the living room.

In the living room, all the clan elders were waiting for him. When they saw Li Huan coming out, they quickly saluted Li Huan.

Li Zheng said to Li Huan: "Patriarch, the auspicious time is approaching, please invite Patriarch to preside over the ancestor worship ceremony in person."

Li Huan nodded slightly.

A group of people left the Li family's mansion and headed straight for Jiulong Mountain where Li's ancestral grave is located.

The Li family took root in Langqi Island hundreds of years ago and multiplied on this island for hundreds of years. Several generations of the Li family were buried in Jiulong Mountain, which is where the Li family's ancestral tomb is today.

At this time, Li Jiazu's tomb has obviously undergone a lot of repairs, and there are many inscriptions, which looks quite solemn.

As the head of the Li family, that is, the head of the Li family, Li Huan personally offered three animals and six animals, three teas and five wines.

Then burn incense and pray to comfort the ancestors
Hundreds of members of the Li clan followed behind Li Huan and bowed down in unison, but the momentum was not small.

That is to say, the Li family is not prosperous, the main line of the direct line is not prosperous, and even the branch line is not very populated. Otherwise, there would be a character like Li Huan.

For those big families, it is not uncommon for the number of people who can participate in ancestor worship to reach thousands.

You must know that the ancient clan was the most important thing, one clan per surname, and a clan with a large population could even pull out thousands of strong people casually sometimes.

After finishing all this work, the sky was already dark, and Li Huan brought his people back to the town. Naturally, there was a big feast under the flowing water. The people on the island could come here as much as they wanted, and it was extremely lively.

After three days, the lively atmosphere on the island finally faded a bit.

On this day, Li Huan personally summoned all the clan elders to come to discuss the matter, preparing to make an arrangement and plan for what the Li family will do next.

Not to mention that Li Huan is the head of the Li Clan, that is Li Huan's current official status, when the elders of the clan received the notice, none of them dared to neglect, and rushed over immediately.

Sitting at the top, Li Huan looked at the dozen or so clan elders whose faces were glowing red and brimming with joy, with a slight smile on their lips.

Li Huan naturally knew why these clan elders were like this. Needless to say, it must be because of his status in the officialdom that these clan elders saw the hope of the future rise of the clan.

However, Li Huan did not dare to be careless and indulgent. Only by setting the rules at the beginning can these clansmen be restrained to a certain extent, so that families like the Qian family and the He family will not become a harmful existence.

Li Zheng smiled at Li Huan and said, "I don't know if the Patriarch called me to come here, but what is your order?"

Everyone looked at Li Huan earnestly. No one was a fool. Li Huan called them here. There must be something wrong. Li Huan's status obviously makes it impossible to stay in Langqi Islet for too long, so he must make arrangements for the affairs of the clan. Therefore, the purpose of Li Huan calling them here this time, everyone can still guess a little bit.

After glancing at everyone, Li Huan didn't speak, but glanced at Chen Yao who was standing behind him.

Chen Yao received Li Huan's signal, and immediately took a step forward. He was dressed in a brocade guard official uniform, with an embroidered spring knife on his waist, and he was full of evil spirits, shocking people's hearts.

When they came in earlier, several clan elders focused on Li Huan and didn't pay much attention to other things. Chen Yao stood behind Li Huan, as if he didn't have any sense of existence.

But now as Chen Yao came out, the evil spirit permeating his body only made these clan elders feel a pressure.

Chen Yao unfolded a stack of case files, and read in his mouth the numerous crimes committed by the family members who were ransacked and exterminated this time.

The crimes of robbing civilian women, killing people, abducting people, etc. are shocking.

Listening to Chen Yao's reading of the crimes committed by the members of each family, these clan elders looked at each other with a hint of horror on their faces.

Langqi Island is so far away from Fuzhou City, and there is another sea across it, so news from Fuzhou Prefecture is naturally very slow to reach Langqi Island.

Naturally, these clan elders did not know the news, and it could be said that it was the first time they had heard of the appalling crimes committed by members of the He family and the Qian family.

Li Huan looked at the expressions of these clan elders, and said calmly: "Chen Yao, tell everyone, what will happen to these people in the end?"

Chen Yao said murderously: "Such crimes should be executed according to the law. The family is copied and the clan is wiped out, and the three clans are wiped out! Beheading, beheading, skinning, cramps..."

With a plop, a clan elder was so frightened that his body went limp, and he slid directly off the seat, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

Li Huan just glanced at him when he saw this clan elder. He knew this clan elder. He was his father's cousin named Li Mo. Among the Li clan, his reputation was quite bad. Li Huan even knew that there were as many as two or three concubines in this family who were just robbed.

It can be said that this is the black sheep among the Li clan.

With a big family, there are naturally all kinds of people, and no one can avoid the evil done by the clansmen like this.

Just like Li Mo, the Li family is shrunk in this small Langqi Island, so he dared to bully men and women, causing harm to the people of the clan. It can be imagined that with Li Huan gaining power, the Li family is not what it used to be. With Li Mo's temperament, In the future, it may not be possible that he will not commit evil things such as murder and arson.

Li Mo's reaction naturally fell into the eyes of all the clan elders present. These clan elders had more or less minor problems, but the only good thing was that Li's family business is so big, and everyone in the village has grown up for so many years. , Even if you want to harm the people of the clan, you can't use it.

To be honest, Li Mo's problem was more serious. Now he was so frightened that he sat paralyzed on the ground. While sweating on their foreheads, many people secretly looked at Li Huan.

No one is stupid to become a clan elder, just by looking at Li Huan's posture, one can probably guess Li Huan's intentions.

Li Huan waved his hand, Chen Yao retreated behind Li Huan, and lost his sense of existence in an instant.

At this moment, Li Huan changed his amicable attitude just now, a flash of fierce aura flashed across his expression, and a faint murderous intent permeated the audience, which only made all the clan elders terrified.

Li Huan took a deep breath, and slowly said: "You clan elders, speaking of it, everyone is from the Li clan, and they all come from the same lineage. Now, fortunately, they have been blessed by their ancestors. My Li family in Langqi is prosperous and prosperous, and it will last forever."

Hearing what Li Huan said, the elders of the clan breathed a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that Li Huan would directly cut off the thoughts and expectations in their hearts.

Li Huan said again: "Li Mou naturally knows what everyone is thinking, but what Li Mou wants to say is that my Li family has a shallow foundation. Zhao Dezhi is rampant, if he doesn't restrain himself, what kind of crimes he will commit, I wonder if the clan elders think what Li said is reasonable?"

Everyone looked at each other, and Li Zheng hurriedly said: "What the Patriarch said is true, the good and the bad among the clan's children are bound to appear, and there will inevitably be black sheep."

Li Zheng also glanced at Li Mo while speaking, the meaning was self-evident.

Li Huan nodded slightly and said: "Li has today, so he should repay the family members, but Li has spoken first, if someone in the clan uses Li's banner to act recklessly, don't blame Li for not thinking of family affection."

All clan elders nodded and said: "It should be so, it should be so."

Then Li Huan said to Zhao Zhi: "Uncle Zhi, you can arrange it."

Zhao Zhi took a deep breath, stepped forward and looked at the crowd and said: "Everyone, Mr. Meng valued it and entrusted Zhao to take care of the property of Li's direct line. The young master did not forget his clansmen, and specially asked me to transfer part of the property under the name of the direct line to the public. Among them, as a family property, share it with the people of the clan.”

The clan elders' eyes lit up when they heard the words, and they looked at Zhao Zhi expectantly.

Zhao Zhi said slowly: "Among them are Changle County and Lianjiang County with tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, ten large ships, twenty shops, and ten thousand taels of silver, all of which are classified as clan property."

These clan elders couldn't help but breathe quickly when they heard the words. Since it is a clan property, it means that all members of the Li clan can get part of the benefits from it.

The most important thing is that the amount of land, shops, ships, and even cash allocated by Li Huan to the family property is beyond their imagination. There are too many, too many.

Among other things, it is the [-] mu of fertile land, which is the first-class fertile land in Lianjiang County and Changle County, which is as much as tens of thousands of mu.

For so many years, the Li family has just hoarded hundreds of acres of fertile land in the two places.

Seeing the reactions of these clan elders, Li Huan coughed lightly and said: "Li will start a clan study in the clan, and all the children of the right age in the clan will enter the clan study."

Starting an ethnology and benefiting the people of the clan is only good for the Li family and not bad.

What's more, Li Huan pondered for a while, and said: "In addition, I will let Uncle Zhi and Uncle Yidao recruit some people from the clan's children to be my Li family's private soldiers and protect my Li family's safety."

Several clan elders only agreed after a little pondering. Li Huan recruited the clan's children to be Li's private soldiers. This was also for Li's consideration. Naturally, they had no reason to object.

Seeing that Li Huan hadn't forgotten them, the elders gradually relaxed, and they could say that they would listen to what Li Huan ordered.

At this moment, Li Huan looked at Zhao Zhi and a group of old Taoists: "I have the method of drying salt and making sugar, which can bring a lot of benefits to my Li family."

Salt and sugar are both huge profits. For example, the Li family could only secretly sell a small amount of private salt before, and even boil salt secretly. Monopolized by various giants.

In the huge Fujian, there are only a few companies that are qualified and capable of producing salt and sugar. They either have no way, or they don't have the ability to protect such a profiteering industry.

Now that the Li family does not lack the ability to protect the property, and Li Huan is able to provide methods for making sugar and drying salt, all the clan elders stood up excitedly.

Those industries allocated to the family property can indeed improve the quality of life of the Li clan members by a large margin, but what really moved these clan elders was the method of making sugar and drying salt, which is the root of the prosperity of the Li clan what.

Seeing Li Zheng and other clan elders, Qi Qi paid homage to Li Huan and said, "On behalf of the Li clan in Langqi, I would like to thank the Patriarch."

Li Huansheng received the salute from the clan elders, nodded slowly and said: "What should be given, what should not be given, that's all Li can do for the Li clan, Li only hopes that the clan elders can remember Li's past If you don’t want to, don’t do things that would embarrass me.”

Li Zheng took a deep breath and immediately said: "Don't worry, Patriarch. From today onwards, we will depose the old status of the Li Mo clan, and will monitor the clansmen, but anyone who bullies others or violates the law does not need the Patriarch to speak. Take him to the ancestral hall, and make his crimes known to the public."

On this day, Li Huan was accompanying his mother, Mrs. Feng, and Lian Qiao was sitting beside her, when she heard Mrs. Feng holding Li Huan's hand and saying, "Huan'er, you are not young now, and it is time to think about it." It's a matter of starting a family and starting a business. I'm afraid you won't be able to be the master of which woman you marry in the future. But Lianqiao, I have treated her like a daughter since I was a child. Shouldn't you give this girl a favor now? I got my name."

Forsythia blushed when she heard the words. Feng Shi naturally knew about her being taken into Li Huan's house, and Feng Shi also knew that with Li Huan's current status, Lianqiao was just a maid from the beginning. It is impossible to be Li Huan's wife, and her mother may not be able to make decisions about Li Huan's marriage.

So Mrs. Feng, who watched Lianqiao grow up, wanted to determine Lianqiao's name first.

Li Huan smiled when he heard this and said, "My child just listens to his mother."

Feng's face showed joy when she heard this and said: "Okay, mother will order someone to find out. Although Lianqiao is just a concubine, she grew up with you since she was a child. If it weren't for your high status now , Mother..."

Lian Qiao blushed and said: "Madam, Lian Qiao only wants to be a maid by the young master's side, what kind of title..."
