The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 382 Kidnapped (4)
"Prince Daoist, you are being polite here." Xiao Mingyu came forward to deal with the Taoist priest, "We are the Xiao family, and we came to Qingyun Temple to find Taoist Priest Xiao, and we would like to ask the Taoist priest to make it easier for us."

"It turned out to be the Xiao family. Since you are here to find Daoist Xiao, please go this way."

"Thank you sir."

The two followed the Taoist priest into the main hall of Qingyun Temple, and then walked towards the backyard.Xiao Mingyu was paying attention and observing along the way, and saw many Taoist priests along the way, but none of the ordinary people.Today is indeed an unjust day, and none of those good men and women who believe in faith went up the mountain.

When I arrived at the backyard, I came to a wing room, and the Taoist knocked on the door, "Daoist Xiao, your lay family members are here to look for it."

"No." An angry male voice came from inside the room.

The Taoist priest looked at Xiao Mingyu and the two helplessly.

Xiao Mingyu took a step forward and said to the people in the room: "Uncle, I am Ming Yu from the fifth room. Ming Huai from the fourth room came with me."

"What are you doing here?" The old man of Dongfu asked impatiently in the room. "The fourth and fifth are all dead, let you be the juniors to come forward. No see, let me go back."

"Reporting to my uncle, the two largest mines of the Xiao family were sealed off by officers and soldiers. My old man, brother Minghui and second uncle were all imprisoned. Now the family is busy collecting money to redeem people. That's all, There are also rumors outside that this matter is related to the Second Household. The Second Household colluded with the Fan family to murder the Xiao family's property. Uncle, the Xiao family is at a critical juncture, and I ask the uncle to come forward to turn the tide, calm people's hearts, and attack Xiaoxiao. Grandniece No talent, I beg you boldly, if there is something that offends my uncle, please forgive me."

The door opened from the inside, and the Taoist priest who led the way left knowingly.

A lot of hair, this is Xiao Mingyu's first impression when he saw Xiao Bozong.Xiao Bozong, the old man of the East Mansion, believed in religion since he was a child, and lived in Qingyun Temple ten years ago. Since then, he has devoted himself to Taoism and ignored common matters.He never went down the mountain during the holidays, and the Dongfu sent people up the mountain to give the old man clothes, food, and silver taels.

Xiao Bozong has a beard all over his face, the beard grows below his chest, his eyes are bright, but there are many bloodshot eyes, obviously he hasn't rested well.There was a strong smell of sulfur on his hands, could it be that Xiao Bozong was making alchemy?Xiao Mingyu glanced into the room calmly, it was a very ordinary wing room without alchemy equipment.

Xiao Mingyu was looking at Xiao Bozong, Xiao Bozong was also looking at Xiao Mingyu and Xiao Minghuai. "Are you Mingyu from the fifth room?"

"The grandniece is right. It's the grandniece who disturbs the uncle. It's just that at this moment, the Xiao family is in a critical juncture, so I can only ask my uncle to come." Xiao Mingyu was very respectful, acting neither humble nor overbearing.As for Xiao Minghuai, he followed Xiao Mingyu, completely led by Xiao Mingyu, and he was not dissatisfied.He was not good at such things, and the reason he followed was because he was worried about going out with a girl like Xiao Mingyu.

"You said that the second room colluded with the Fan family? Is there any evidence?" Xiao Bozong's eyes were extremely sharp, and when he asked this question, his whole body's aura came out.It doesn't look like a Taoist priest who makes alchemy, but he has the aura of a family.Of course, Xiao Bozong ten years ago was an old dandy, similar to Xiao Maoheng, capable of playing with everything.But it is much more capable than Xiao Maoheng.It wasn't until Xiao Bozong went to Qingyun Temple that the Xie family had the opportunity to truly control the East Mansion, and had the opportunity to fool the old lady Gongsun to hand over her power and listen to Xie's arrangements.

Xiao Mingyu lowered his head slightly, and said: "There is no conclusive evidence. But years ago, the second room was engaged to the Fan family, and the wedding date was set in September this year. Also, on the day of the accident, the second uncle and the second aunt disappeared for a day, and they didn't find out until the next day. Appeared. As for the second uncle, he took the initiative to enter the Yamen very strangely. In addition to those rumors, the second room did not defend, which makes people have to think about it. Of course, if we wronged the second room, we will naturally have to make compensation to the second room. But If this is true, our West Manor has already folded two people in, and now we can't shake the second room. Only you, uncle and grandfather, have the ability to turn the world around and eliminate a catastrophe."

Xiao Bozong laughed, "Xiao Maoyang is not good at being a man, but I didn't expect the daughter who was born to be quite good at talking. Having said so much, you have one purpose, to ask the old man to go back and take care of the second room, so that the second room does not mess around, right? "

"Nothing can be hidden from my uncle, Mingyu thinks exactly like this. This is also what all of us in the Xiao family think. Please make it possible for my uncle." Xiao Mingyu was a little nervous, but at this moment, she thought that she was at least [-]% to [-]%. The certainty persuaded Xiao Bozong to go back.

Xiao Bozong sneered, "The second room belongs to our East Mansion, little girl Mingyu, why do you think this old man is helping your West Mansion?"

Xiao Mingyu said firmly: "Uncle, this is not to help the West Mansion, but to help the Xiao Family, which has both the East Mansion and the West Mansion. If the West Mansion collapses, only the East Mansion is left. Can the power of the Dongfu counteract the encroachment of the big and small families in Zhongzhou? Those mines, if the Dongfu is not stable, will sooner or later become the hands of people with foreign surnames. In this way, the Xiao family will no longer be the Xiao family it used to be. Uncle Do you really want to watch this situation come true?"

Xiao Bozong snorted coldly, "I have been a monk for more than ten years, and I have already let go of everything in the mundane world. Whether the Xiao family is the Xiao family in the West Mansion, or the Xiao family in the East Mansion, it makes no difference to the old man. You should go back quickly. Go ahead. Tell the fourth and fifth children that the two elders dare not come out to see the old man, and only send children. It is really shameful. When the old man sees them some day, he must give them a good lesson."

"Why wait until another day, now that my uncle is following us down the mountain, I can teach them a lesson tonight. Uncle, the carriage is at the foot of the mountain, won't my uncle come with us?" Xiao Mingyu asked.

Xiao Bozong snorted coldly, "Little girl, didn't you understand what I said? Get out of here quickly, the old man won't go with you."

"Granduncle can let go of the mortal world, can he also let go of alchemy, food, and gold and silver? What does my uncle rely on to live a chic life in Qingyun Temple? He relies on the financial support of the Xiao family. When Xiao The lifeblood of the family is basically gone, can my uncle still have gold and silver to support? Everyone in my family has no food to eat, so who will care about the old man at that time. Besides, those two mines were a hundred years ago. It can be said that that is the root of the Xiao family. Even if the roots are gone, the Xiao family will decline sooner or later. If the uncle doesn't care about it, then it is no use for Ming Yu to disturb Dao Long. If the uncle still cares about the Xiao family, please ask the uncle to come down the mountain to discuss the way out of the Xiao family. Farewell."

"Ming Yu, are we really going to leave like this?" Xiao Minghuai turned around every step, hoping that Xiao Bozong would change his mind.

Xiao Mingyu nodded, "Aren't you going back and staying here to make people laugh? Brother Wu, let's go. It's me who thinks things too simply. Some people's hearts are made of stone, and the words we say fall into the hearts of others There is not even a splash. Instead of wasting time here, it is better to find another way."
