The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law

If you want to entertain all the wealthy families in Beijing, of course you have to have a reason.

It happened that a hotel invested by the Li family had been completed and was originally scheduled to open on May Day. Hou Qigui decided to advance the opening date and used this as an excuse to send out invitations to the wealthy families in the capital.

In fact, everyone knows that this hotel is not very important in the Li family's industrial layout. It is made so high-profile simply because Lin Manqing came to the capital.

Of course, the wealthy families in the capital would give this face. Even if Lin Manqing didn't come, Guanghou Qigui's face would be enough to fill the hotel's banquet hall.

The most important thing is Wang, Chu, Na, and Xiao Xi. Will they come, and who will they send? This is what everyone is most concerned about.

With the current status of the Li family, and the fact that Lin Manqing returned to the capital for the first time in three years, it stands to reason that the head of the Western family would have to come forward.

But everyone also knows that the situation in the capital has been very delicate in recent years. Everyone in the West seems to be alienating the Li family overtly or covertly. It is said that a more powerful force has entered the capital, and even everyone in the West can't afford to offend it.

In addition to the various rumors about Li Muchen in the past, some said that he fell into the devil's path, some said that he was dead, some said that he was hunted down by the righteous path and hid, and some said that he was captured by the master and locked up. .

All in all, it looks like the Li family is going to be doomed soon.

The reason why the business is still expanding is entirely because Li Muchen's past power is still there.

Suddenly it was reported that Li Muchen was out of confinement and Lin Manqing came to the capital. Everyone was curious, how will the next plot of this drama develop?

At the same time, people also have questions, why is Lin Manqing here? Was it to help Li Muchen act as an outpost, or was something really wrong with Li Muchen, and Lin Manqing was just here to appease people?

There are many speculations among outsiders, but Lin Manqing is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai in Li's house.

Everything was arranged by Hou Qigui. She did not interfere and was not in a hurry. She just took the time to go to Yanshan in northern Beijing and met an old friend.

That night, Lin Manqing was breathing in her room, when a figure floated in through the window, flashed briefly, and then disappeared again.

After a while, Lin Manqing finished adjusting her breath, exhaled a long breath, then stood up, took a box of tea leaves from the cabinet, and said as if talking to herself:

"This year's Mingqian Biluochun, I brought it from the south. Do you want to try it?"

A slim figure appeared like a ghost next to the cabinet.

"You're welcome, madam."

"Don't call me madam, I'm so unfamiliar. You can call me sister."

Lin Manqing took two glasses, poured boiling water into them, waited until the water temperature was right, and put them into Biluochun.

When the curled tea leaves fall into the water, they twist and turn lively as if they are alive, blooming with a youthful figure.

A refreshing aroma overflowed.

"Obviously I'm older than you." The man said.

"Then I'll call you sister, and you call me sister." Lin Manqing gently pushed one of the cups of tea over.

The man laughed: "Yin Ying is my senior sister. If you call me sister, then Yin Ying will also become your sister, which is too unruly. Besides, I don't dare to take advantage of Young Master Li. You should still call me by my name." Bar."

"Okay, Dai Ting, let's drink tea first." Lin Manqing smiled.

"No, my name is Yin Ting now." Yin Ting corrected, picked up the tea cup and smelled it, "Well, it smells so good. Only rich families like you can drink such good tea."

"If you like it, I'll have someone bring you some. You take this box first and give Mrs. Duan a taste." Lin Manqing handed a box of unopened tea leaves to Yin Ting.

Yin Ting was not polite, collected the tea leaves, and looked at Lin Manqing curiously: "You don't seem to be in a hurry at all."

"What's the rush?"

"Don't you want to know the outcome of my trip?"

"You will always tell me the result. If you don't tell me in a hurry, it means the matter is not urgent."

Yin Ting sighed: "No wonder Master said that Mrs. Li is the real hero among girls, and none of us can compare with her."

"Mrs. Duan, thank you very much."

"Okay, I'd better report to you about my work." Yin Ting put down the tea cup. "The Wu family is a wealthy family in Jinzhou. It is quite prestigious in the local area and has a good reputation among the people. The head of the hometown is Wu Jincheng and he has retired. , growing flowers at home and writing. According to my observation, he is a practitioner and is very good at nourishing qi. Wu Jincheng has a younger brother named Wu Jinshan, who has a bad reputation in the local area. He is responsible for almost all the domineering things in the Wu family. Three years ago , Wu Jinshan left Jinzhou and was said to have come to the capital."

Yin Ting stopped here and picked up the tea cup to drink tea.

Lin Manqing didn't push her. That wasn't what she wanted to hear. She believed that since Yin Ting came to report today, she must have more important information.

"There is one person in the Wu family that you should pay special attention to, that is the current head of the family, Wu Hongli." Yin Ting continued, "She is Wu Jincheng's daughter. Three years ago, Wu Jincheng stepped down and gave up his position to Wu Hongli. Although Wu Jincheng is also a practitioner , but at most in the stage of nourishing Qi, but Wu Hongli is a real master. She discovered me when I got close to her. If Mr. Li hadn’t returned the complete Mozi Five Elements Technique to the Momen three years ago, I would have to smell it again. On the Young Master's road, I will probably fall into her hands."

Lin Manqing was slightly surprised. She is very aware of Yin Ting's current abilities. With Gemen's hidden presence and the Five Elements of the Mo family, there are not many people in the world who can keep her away.

She turned around and took out a stack of documents from the drawer, took out one of the papers, and asked, "Is it her?"

This is the information about the Jinzhou Wu family that Hou Qigui investigated. Each member of the Wu family has a separate copy.

Yin Ting glanced at the photo above, nodded and said, "That's her."

Lin Manqing thought deeply: "Wu Hongli succeeded as the head of the family three years ago, and Wu Jinshan came to the capital shortly after. It seems that the new head of the family has great ambitions! Could it be that he wants to inherit the legacy of her ancestors and recreate the grand occasion of the sun and moon in the sky?"

"You mean...Wu Zetian?" Yin Ting was greatly surprised.

Lin Manqing nodded: "Only in this way can we explain why Wu Jinshan suddenly came to the capital and roped in the West family to fight against the Li family. Only Wu Zetian's methods will make everyone in the west of the capital worry."

"But why did he only target the Li family?"

"Because her ancestors came to power through the Li family, she must also want to replicate this miracle!"

"what?"

Yin Ting looked at Lin Manqing in shock. She knew that the Li family was the first aristocratic family in the capital, and she also knew that the Li family had a long history, but she had never been connected with Tang Li.

Lin Manqing took the piece of paper back, took a deep look at the photo on the paper, and said with a smile: "Wu Meiniang stepped on Li Tang and came to power. She wanted to be the woman of the Li family first, but now, I am the mistress of the Li family. !”

The smile on her face became brighter, but her face showed determination, and there was an even more imperceptible sternness in her eyes.

Yin Ting suddenly felt the hairs on her body stand up.

Only then did I feel that this lady seemed to be much stronger than three years ago.

"I can't judge Wu Hongli's cultivation level, but from her aura, I feel that her cultivation path seems to have originated from Buddhism." Yin Ting said.

Lin Manqing said: "As expected, Wu Zhou worshiped Buddhism and built many temples. Wasn't Xiantong Temple built by Wu Zhou? Jinzhou is close to Mount Wutai, so I'm not surprised that the Wu family and Buddhism are involved."
