Thunder exploded, the electric snake rolled away, and another heavy rain was coming.
Anyang City in Qingzhou occupies a huge Ning Garden.
Many servants came to greet them, and the sporadic rain did not affect their preparation of meals for the master's family.
In the front hall of the garden, the banquet has been served.
Several tables that can accommodate ten people have been placed with all kinds of delicacies, delicacies and drinks. Everything that Qingzhou has can be found on the tables at this time.
"Why is there so much more rain this year than in previous years!"
"But no, we used to have drought in Qingzhou, but now the air is damp from the rain, and some of the grain in the barn is moldy!"
“It seems like when the weather clears, I’ll take it out to bask in the sun!”
Before the banquet even started, the six people who were seated first gathered together to chat.
"Shut up!"
Suddenly, a voice came from behind. Several people who were chatting stood up and turned around to take a look, then immediately bowed and saluted.
The four people who came slowly were the four heads of the four major families in Anyang City, Qingzhou.
Today it was said that they were gathering together to discuss matters, but now I see that the four heads of the family have appeared together before the banquet has started. They must have already held a small meeting and decided on some things, and the subsequent meeting will only be for them. Just give me a notice and take a look at his attitude!
"No need to be formal, sit down."
As the host, the head of the Ning family waved his hand and went to the main table.
The other three family heads also took their seats.
The table was full of delicacies, and there was even a beautiful woman pouring wine, but everyone was not interested. They reluctantly took a few bites and then put down their bowls and chopsticks.
"Luo Guanghan, Luo Guanghan"
The head of the Ning family put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked to the side of the head of the Wang family.
"First it was a granary, then it was to provide relief to the refugees, and now, it is also to clean up the rivers and lakes. I'm afraid this hole has no bottom!"
His voice is not loud.
But who among the guests in the hall is not a martial artist, and who is not paying attention to them?
Naturally, everyone heard this.
Everyone's expressions were grim. Considering that several family heads of the city did not shy away from them when talking about this matter, it seemed that they were summoned today just for this matter!
The head of the Wang family responded with a cold face: "Money and food are nothing. If we can lose money and eliminate disasters, then forget it. But Luo Guanghan's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and his greed is endless. If we take a step back, he will take a step forward, treating us as I can’t stand it if I steal my own money!”
The words of the head of the Wang family are equivalent to clarifying the theme and setting the tone for this conference. The next step is to look at the opinions of everyone to judge the mood of the following small families who are following the four major families. Whether they are all in order, you must also hand over a letter of nomination.
An old man covered in silk and with a rich figure stood up and saluted the four people on top:
"The evil Luo Guanghan did in Qingzhou is too numerous to describe. We will never allow him to do evil and cause trouble again!"
"This is absolutely true."
The old man spoke, and several other family heads also nodded in agreement.
"That truckload of money and food was stolen away by Luo Guanghan like this. I am really heartbroken."
The old man looked heartbroken.
"Those are all the assets we have saved through hard work."
"Who says it's not?"
Seeing that the heat was almost done, the head of the Ning family sighed and pretended to look desolate.
"You are a swordsman and you are a fish, what can you do? Although our family has a great cause, but after all, as the leader of Qingzhou, you have great power, what can you do?"
The other three family heads also sighed and pretended to be helpless.
"What about the governor of Qingzhou? He did evil things while in office and imposed excessive taxes, which caused unrest among the people of Qingzhou. I don't think he will live long as the governor!"
"State leader? That's just an unfamiliar dog. Others don't know it, and we don't know it either. He comes to us every time to extort money with great righteousness. After the money and food he gets is transferred to other hands, he quietly transports it out of Qingzhou and keeps it as private property. Get up, this time there will be another scapegoat to clean up the rivers and lakes in Qingzhou, and he will ask us for money, bah!"
"I gave him three portions of thin noodles before so that the silver grain could be shipped out smoothly. If we don't give him face, haha. The road is steep and dangerous, and there are countless strong beams. It's normal for him to lose it!"
"Yes, that's exactly the truth!" The head of the Ning family agreed.
At this time, the four masters looked at each other and smiled, but there was no trace of gloominess at all?
At this moment, suddenly there was a boy coming from behind in the rain, running in with his head lowered.
When he came to the head of the Ning family, he leaned over and whispered: "Master, there is urgent news!"
"Red expedited?"
The head of the Ning family frowned slightly when he saw the color of the envelope.
"Brother Ning, why don't you take care of things first?"
"It doesn't matter!"
Having said that, everyone present still turned their eyes to the side to avoid suspicion.
The head of the Ning family took the envelope from the boy's arms, opened it and read it. After reading it, he just put the letter into his arms with a calm expression, and then greeted everyone with a smile and a meal.
The previous topic continued, and naturally everyone was happy. The banquet was held until late at night, and the hundreds of servants who served were all so tired that their legs were sore.
After everyone left, the three family heads returned and went straight to the study of the Ning family.
Entering the study, the head of the Ning family has already made tea with his own hands and is waiting for him.
After the three of them sat down, the head of the Ning family handed over the red urgent letter that he had seen before.
The three of them read it and passed it around to each other.
"Qi Yuntao, Rudraksha Bodhi Temple! This Qi Yuntao is really brave. However, he only broke through to Ruyi Realm a few years ago, and he dares to cause trouble with Rudraksha Bodhi Temple. This is too outrageous!"
"These people in the world are really just a bunch of people. The Rudraksha Bodhi Temple has survived the baptism of time. How can it be that its strength is empty just because the old abbot passed away? It's ridiculous, it's extremely ridiculous!"
"It's just a mob."
The head of the Ning family took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "That's why Qi Yuntao used him!"
"Oh? What else does Brother Ning know?"
"Hahaha, this matter has nothing to do with us. I am informing you of this matter today just to let you quickly put aside your relationship with those large and small powerful sects in Yunzhou.
Either recall those clansmen who are studying arts, or directly create a family tree! Otherwise, if we get infected later, Luo Guanghan will catch us and cause trouble for us! "
"Thank you, Brother Ning, for telling me about this. We owe Brother Ning a favor!"
"Brother Wang, you're welcome. Our four major families are in the same spirit. Only by working together can we control this land of Qingzhou! Everyone, drink tea, drink tea!"
The four people laughed, drank the tea in front of them, and then left one after another.
After the three heads of the family left, the head of the Ning family said: "The head of Luozhou is really powerful, and those three old guys can't notice it if they are in the same room!"
"Hahaha, it's just a small trick, how can it be compared with the methods of the Ning family?"
A voice came from the screen behind the tea table, and then a figure flashed out and stood in front of the tea table.
This person is none other than Luo Guanghan, who was being discussed and dealt with by many families in Anyang City just now!
"It's just for the family's self-protection. This move digs its own foundation. How could Ning do such a thing if he had no choice?" As he said this, the head of the Ning family took out the real red urgent letter paper from his arms and flicked his wrist. , and fell into the brazier on the side.
The letter was instantly reduced to ashes in the coals of fire.
"The Ning family is really lucky to have a brother as the head of the family!"
"Enough chatting, where is what I want?"
Luo Guanghan smiled and took out something from his arms and placed it on the table.
Under the candlelight in the room, it was revealed that the object was a white mask with a smiling face!
