Chapter 5404 Prelude
“You don’t want one hundred thousand taels?” Shen still found it incredible.
One hundred thousand taels for the head of a marginalized member of the family is already extremely exaggerated.
“No, I’m here just to deliver the banknote this time. I’ll put the money on the table for you, I’ll pay it later!”
Aunt Xia didn’t say much nonsense, she raised the He took out a stack of banknotes and put them on the table. Before Shen could count the banknotes, he stood up on tiptoes and ran towards behind him.
After a few ups and downs, Xiagu's figure disappeared from Shen's eyes.
At this time, Li Qingsong walked over from the other side of the yard.
After receiving the news that Aunt Xia was coming, Li Qingsong, who was discussing matters with his mother Shen, hid in the back.
He had seen the entire conversation between Xiagu and Shen later.
Seeing Gu Xia leaving without accepting the order, he felt a little panicked.
"Mom, is something going to go wrong?" Li Qingsong always felt something was wrong. His brother, who was eating, drinking, having fun and not doing his job, should have just been waiting to die. How difficult would it be to kill such a person? Who would have thought that Gu Xia failed, and even Yuanlong in the entire Sixiang City gave up on this list.
If you say there is nothing fishy in this, he won’t believe it even if you beat him to death.
"There is indeed a problem. There is someone behind that little beast, maybe an elder, but..."
Shen's tone paused and said: "He won't be able to jump around for long. , this time the Presbyterian Council will drive him to the north and imprison him. At that time, they can deal with him however they want."
"So, my father has promised. "Really?" Li Qingsong said in surprise.
Apart from the family leader Li Chengji, no one else could be able to confine Li Qingyuan in the Presbyterian Church.
"Yes, he has agreed to imprison the little beast." Shen nodded.
"That's great. Mother takes action, and it's really different." Li Qingsong said excitedly.
"You must also make preparations in advance and take care of the things he tells you about going to the south." Shen said.
"No way? I still want to go to the south?" Li Qingsong's face turned into a bitter one.
"What? You don't want to go?" Shen glanced at Li Qingsong.
"The miasma is rampant in the south. The Black Lotus Sect and the Miao people in Miao territory are in rebellion. I'm afraid I will die if I go there." Li Qingsong is indeed a little worried. The southern land is not only unbearably hot, but also full of all kinds of miasma. Poison was rampant, and there were a bunch of barbarians and rebels. It was an area that the imperial power could hardly touch, and it was an area that even the Southern Tang Dynasty that Da Qi had defeated could not penetrate.
"I have to go even if I die. If you don't go, tomorrow he will release that little beast and inherit the position of head of the family." Shen said decisively.
There is no room for bargaining on this point. What Li Chengji needs is a head who can truly carry the wind and rain and the entire Li family, not some coward.
As the head of the family, Li Chengji is terrifyingly cold-blooded. He never talks about emotions.
"Let's do this, Qingsong. When you go to the south, contact the Black Lotus Sect. I used to have a close friend who is currently serving as a protector in the Black Lotus Sect. You can go find her." Shen thought about it. thought.
“You want to contact the Black Lotus Sect? I heard that the Black Lotus Sect has been divided internally since the death of General Tiangong. Now the saint and the elders have divided the Black Lotus Sect into two, and the two factions are fighting. I haven't stopped, is it appropriate to contact me at this time?" Li Chengji asked.
"The strength of the Black Lotus has not been greatly damaged. General Tiangong and General Digong are gone, but the main force has little impact." Shen continued: "I will give you the contact information of that friend. You Go find her. Don't stay in the Li family compound. It's best to leave now to avoid being gossiped about and to be a good person. Show him your attitude. "
"Okay, I will listen to my mother and leave now." Li Qingsong nodded. He had indeed stayed in the Li family compound for too long. According to the orders he received, he should have set off for the south as soon as possible, but he always hoped for a glimmer of hope that would allow him to stay.
But the current situation shows that it cannot be kept forever.
Since the next Presbyterian Council will imprison the second brother Li Qingyuan, what is he still doing? And with the contact person provided by his mother, the south can be considered to have a foundation.
Without further ado, Shen provided contact information and prepared many items.
Li Qingsong immediately left the Li family compound, took a carriage, and headed south.
……
At this time, the Presbyterian Church was about a third of the way in session. The previous business had just ended, and everyone was drinking tea and taking a break.
Li Chengya, who was drinking jasmine tea, suddenly raised his head and said: "Master, I heard that you are going to send your second son Li Qingyuan to the north and imprison him?"
Others Several elders raised their heads, first glanced at Li Chengya, and then turned their attention to Li Chengji, who was sitting in front of him.
There was no expression on Li Chengji's face. He surrounded the surroundings and said slowly: "Yes, this incompetent boy usually eats, drinks, has fun, and does not do anything serious. Now it is a critical time for the Li family. He still needs to wait." At home, only bad things will happen, first Send him to the north and lock him up so that he can recuperate. "
"Master, you are not doing this right. In my opinion, Li Qingyuan is not an incompetent boy, but a great talent. The British Lord." Li Chengya raised his voice.
Li Chengji's eyes widened, and an expression of surprise finally appeared on his originally expressionless face.
You actually say that Li Qingyuan is a talented and strategic hero? These words actually came from Li Chengya's mouth?
Had he not been sure that Li Chengya was not bribed, he would have doubted whether Li Chengya had received money from Li Qingyuan?
However, what is Li Chengya’s identity and how could she accept money from Li Qingyuan? It is impossible no matter how hard you think about it.
"Yes, Li Qingyuan is indeed a talented junior. It would be a pity to leave him in the north." The voice of another elder, this time it was Li Chengqi who spoke. Judging from the look of approval on his face, it was obvious that he was not casual. Talk about it.
The two elders were talking about how good Li Qingyuan was, and Li Chengji instantly became alert.
Something is wrong, there must be something happening that he doesn't know about, something that he can't control.
Immediately, he turned his attention to another elder, Li Chengwu.
Li Chengwu is his best friend. He has played with him since he was a child. He has no frivolities. His biggest hobby is martial arts training. He is a famous martial arts fanatic and the strongest in the entire Li family. One person.
Historically, Li Chengwu had nothing to do with the speeches made at the presbytery. His principle was that he would agree with whatever the family leader Li Chengji said. If anyone opposed the family leader Li Chengji, he would jump out and fight with him.
As for other ideas, he basically has none.
So, Li Chengji looked at him subconsciously, expecting him to stand up and support him.
