Chapter 56 Tianhong Tower

Early the next morning, Zhang Cheng personally delivered breakfast.

While placing the dishes in the food box on the table, Zhang Cheng whispered back: "The master and his wife are not in the house today, so the master can go out without worries."

Today is the day when Tianhong Tower will auction thousand-year-old jade ginseng.

Liu Qi nodded, picked up a bowl of cheese and took a big sip, feeling the fragrance lingering on her lips and teeth and filling her mouth with sweetness.

Zhang Cheng lowered his head and hesitated for a moment, then continued: "One more thing. Aunt Liang who is next to Madam... mentioned your marriage in front of Madam last night."

marriage……

Liu Qi paused while holding the steamed cake.

What a joke!
  But if you think about it carefully, with "Liu Qiniang's" age and status, marriage should indeed be put on the agenda.

But the person who raised this matter was not Liu Zongxun, the father of "Liu Qiniang", nor her stepmother Zhou. Instead, it was Grandma Liang who had always had bad intentions. She must have some bad intentions in this.

"What's Zhou's reaction?" Liu Qi asked immediately.

"I don't know exactly what was said." Zhang Cheng quickly replied, "But my wife called the master back from my aunt's room in the middle of the night last night, which must be related to this matter."

In this way, Mrs. Zhou also intends to make a fuss about her marriage.

Liu Qi narrowed his eyes, and then asked quietly: "Butler Zhang, based on your understanding of Master Liu, who will he betroth my order to?"

Zhang Cheng heard a hint of murderous intent from Liu Qi's words, and suddenly felt a chill coming down his back. He swallowed the words but took them back, and in the end could only keep his head buried.

Upon seeing this, Liu Qi said coldly: "Whoever plans to discuss marriage with the Liu family tries to make these people 'accidentally die'. It is estimated that if a few people die, no one will dare to mention this matter again."

"Yes!"

"Remember, keep your hands and feet clean!"

……

Liu Qi changed into a green shirt and went out today. As usual, she had a knife hanging on her waist and a veil on her face.

Tianhong Tower is located on the main street in the south of the city. Standing at the intersection of the main street and looking around, it is the tallest building besides the Imperial City in the distance.

Tianhong Tower in the south of the city and Zhuangyuan Tower in the east of the city.

One Wu and One Wen are the two most prestigious restaurants in Beijing.

When the Qi Dynasty was first established, martial arts people gathered in the capital to congratulate, and heroes from all walks of life lived in Tianhong Tower.

With the breaking of the military order in the first year of Taikang, the relationship between the government and the martial arts was once again in conflict. Since then, the martial arts heroes rarely appeared in the capital, and the wealthy Jiangnan has instead become a holy place where martial arts people flock to.

Today's Tianhong Tower is very lively, but this bustle is not something that ordinary people can join in.

Two teams, one black and one white, lined up on both sides of the gate of Tianhong Tower.

Liu Qi was very familiar with the people and horses on the black road.

The lowest agent among the six doors is the one dressed in black.

Liu Qi had never seen the white people on the road, but Liu Qi had never seen them before, but seeing that these people in white were all big and round, with shining eyes, they obviously had some cultivation.

Just as Liu Qi was sizing up the two teams of guards at the entrance of Tianhong Tower from a distance, a strange middle-aged man quietly came next to him.

"This girl, our chief helmsman has been waiting for you for a long time!"

"But President Cao?" Liu Qi asked casually without even looking at him.

The middle-aged man replied respectfully: "It's Chairman Cao."

Although the Cao Gang has been renamed the Chamber of Commerce for more than ten years, some senior members of the gang still refer to Cao as the Chief Rudder.

"The chief helmsman knows that you don't like to be seen in public, so he specially asked his subordinates to wait here and pick you up through the side door." The middle-aged man continued.

Liu Qi glanced at the gate of Tianhong Tower where guests were flocking, and nodded immediately.

"Lead the way."     …

Liu Qi followed the middle-aged man from the alley on the side of Tianhong Tower to a hidden wooden door. He opened the door and walked through a long corridor. Finally, he went up the stairs to a wing.

When he pushed the door open and walked in, he saw Cao Cheng, who was dressed in brocade and splendid clothes, stood up and cupped his fists at Liu Qi and said, "Girl, here we come!"

"Squeak-"

After seeing his men retreat and close the door, Cao Chenggang made a gesture of invitation to Liu Qi.

Only after Liu Qi entered the door did he realize that this was a wing. It was a grandstand, and he saw a crowd of people under the stage. It was the lobby of Tianhong Tower.

"It's rare for Tianhong Tower to be so lively. I'm afraid all the people in the capital are here." Cao Cheng said with a smile.

"Look, girl, that's Gao Yueyang, the boss of Tianhong Tower." Cao Cheng said, pointing to the smiling middle-aged man at the door of the stage.

"Even though he looks like a smiling Maitreya Buddha now, the Gao family's Thirty-One Soul Chasing Sword is not a vegetarian."

"People from the Qixia Sect are also here. The leader of the Qixia Sect, Master Liuyun, has been the most popular in recent years. He just killed the Five Lingnan Ghosts a few months ago. Now there are rumors in the world that Master Liuyun will be the new Seven Stars. 'one."

"Oh, Old Black Snake's people are here too." Cao Cheng's originally narrowed eyes suddenly widened a little, and then he looked at the group of people who had just walked in from the gate and said.

"Old Black Snake was originally a member of the Beggar Clan. I think you, girl, may have heard about this." Cao Cheng said with a smile, "But few people know that Old Black Snake and the current executioner elder of the Beggar Clan are closely related to each other in the world. Xiu Shaoyang, known as 'Yi Bo Yuntian', is a fellow disciple."

When Liu Qi heard this, he said in a deep voice: "But the one in the 'Seven Stars and Five Righteousness'?"

Cao Cheng nodded and continued:

"Back then, the Beggar Clan took the initiative to disband the Capital Branch. It seemed that they had lost face in front of their martial arts colleagues. However, more than ten years later, the Beggar Clan is now more powerful and powerful than before, and there is a faint tendency to become the best in the world."

"Except Xiu Shaoyang, one of the 'Five Righteousnesses'."

"There is also Gu Lianyun, who is also one of the 'Seven Stars' and is now the leader of the Beggar Clan."

"It is the only sect in the world that has two top masters."

"It shows that the beggar gang's choice was correct."

……

As the chief helmsman of the Cao Gang, Cao Cheng has disciples of the Cao Gang all over the Central Plains. He is naturally unique in his understanding of powerful figures in all corners of the world.

Almost every person who walks through the gate, Cao Cheng can tell a few words about his origin, martial arts and even personality.

Although Liu Qi looked calm as he listened, he still remembered everyone's martial arts in his heart, especially the few masters named by Cao Cheng.

At this time, three familiar figures also appeared at the gate of Tianhong Tower.

It's them again!

Song Linger, a disciple of Feiyu Villa, Xiao Jiang, a disciple of the Beggar Clan, and Cheng Zhenzhen.

The three of them walked into the lobby under the leadership of a young master. It seemed that the three of them had witnessed such an occasion for the first time, and their eyes were full of curiosity.

Cao Cheng on the side said in time: "Oh, he is a disciple of Feiyu Villa."

"The young master in the lead is called Li Huai. He is considered one of the more outstanding among the younger generation of Feiyu Villa, but compared with his elder brother Li Feiling, he is far behind."

As he spoke, Cao Cheng couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great to have one of these young disciples who are amazingly talented. I don't know where Jiang Jiyu found these four disciples. The "Four Little Flying Cranes" are really It’s so mouth-watering!”

The so-called Four Little Feihe are the four most outstanding disciples of Jiang Jiyu, the master of Feiyu Villa, one of the "Seven Stars" and "Crane Jiuxiao".

Dugu Ming, Li Feiling, Fang Qingluan, Lin Yangui!
  The oldest of the four is still under the age of three, and the youngest is only twenty years old, but they are all already top-notch masters in the world.

"Senior Sister Fang!"

Cao Cao was about to arrive. Liu Qi saw the woman in Tsing Yi whom she had seen at Datong Bank that day appear in the lobby. When Song Linger, who had just entered the door, saw the woman in Tsing Yi, she screamed excitedly and then went to greet her.
