Chapter 044 Enemies and Friends
The two were silent for a moment, and Yun Dong took the initiative to continue: "Brother Liang, please help me analyze, which family is responsible for this incident? Or, is there an outside family coming in?"
Qiu Zhengliang covered his chest and coughed lightly. Why didn't he want to know the murderer behind it? No matter how sophisticated he was, he still couldn't see through the real murderer behind this incident.
There were no signs, no clues, and it happened so suddenly that there was no time to react.
But he would rather believe that this incident must have been premeditated and carefully planned.
The representative of the younger generation that the Qiu family worked hard to cultivate and relied on for important responsibilities was mysteriously killed, and the successor trained by the Yun family was killed. So, who should be next?
Both of them were silent. After all, Yundong was not as calm as Qiu Zhengliang. He sighed and said, "Chu family?"
Qiu Zhengliang just laughed softly and did not speak.
Yundong was just guessing. Seeing Qiu Zhengliang's attitude, he was a little anxious, but he was helpless.
It's just a guess without any evidence. Compared to the Yun family, the Chu family is more like a local snake entrenched in Xi'an. Among the seven major families, the Chu family has the top spot, and almost no one can shake its status. However, the power of the Chu family is limited.
The nature is also obvious. The Yun family's industry and connections have long exceeded Xi'an, like a more complex behemoth.
Qiu Zhengliang pondered for a moment and said: "Master Dong, I can't give you an answer to this matter, because I am also looking for an answer. Even, we cannot doubt any family. Any rash action will bring consequences to the family.
disaster."
Qiu Zhengliang's words made Yundong stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Qiu Zhengliang said so much. Although he didn't seem to give an answer, he already understood a lot of things.
Seeing the complicated changes in Yun Dong's face, Qiu Zhengliang sighed. Why didn't he want to know the murderer behind it? If he found out, he would probably turn his anger into a sharp sword and insert it into the murderer's chest, right? Even this
Could the murderer be the Chu family?
But as he said before, he cannot doubt anyone before there is any evidence. Even if he has doubts, he only pretends to be in his heart. This is a sensitive period, and it is very likely that one action will cause family conflicts.
of disputes.
Thinking of the Tang family many years ago and the fallen Hu family, wasn't it a wrong judgment made by the head of the family?
In this case, both families should calm down.
Knowing that there was no way to continue chatting about this matter, because Qiu Zhengliang had stopped talking, it was up to Yundong as to how much he would gain. He briefly chatted with Qiu Zhengliang for a few words, then stood up and left.
When he was about to reach the door, Qiu Zhengliang called out to him softly and said, "Master Dong, if you need help, the Lao Qiu family will help you."
Yundong turned around and looked at Qiu Zhengliang in shock. Seeing the calm look on his face, his heart was shaken violently. Finally, he nodded and said, "Thank you, brother Liang."
Qiu Zhengliang waved his hand, indicating that he could leave.
When necessary, the Lao Qiu family will help the Yun family? Isn't this a kind of sincerity? But why does Qiu Zhengliang deliberately emphasize the Lao Qiu family? Could it be that Qiu Zhengqiang won't lend a helping hand? Then what's the point?
Does this mean that the seemingly monolithic Qiu family has split? Yun Dong felt complicated and shocked, but he also smelled a lot of things.
After sending Yundong out, the housekeeper returned to Qiu Zhengliang's bedroom and stood beside him with a respectful expression.
"How's it going outside?" Qiu Zhengliang asked calmly, squinting his eyes.
The housekeeper briefly described the situation outside. Qiu Zhengliang didn't say a word, but smiled faintly and said, "Go ahead and continue to stay there."
The housekeeper hummed, then took a few steps back, then turned and left.
It turns out that today, the main members of the Elder Council have gathered together again, and the disputes that were not settled last time will still continue.
After the housekeeper left, Qiu Zhengliang suddenly sneered a few times. He sat up from the bed, took a cigar on one side, lit it and took a few puffs. In the smoke, he recalled what Yun Dong had just said to him.
The murders of Qiu Zeming and Yun Dongbei are still under investigation, but the police can't find any clues. Even though they used some special relationships and connections, they still found nothing.
The Chu family has a history of hundreds of years. Moreover, their family has a long history and has produced many celebrities in history. Nowadays, they are the leading family in Xi'an.
The strength of the Chu family is spread throughout Xi'an, and the family is also very well-known throughout the country. It also has close contacts with several other families in the country. At this time, a small high-level meeting was held in the villa of Chu Xiaotong, the head of the Chu family.
is being held.
The topic they discussed was naturally related to the murders of Qiu Zeming and Yun Dongbei.
I'm afraid it's not just the Chu family, but all the reputable families in Xi'an are discussing this matter. Important members of the two families were brutally killed. They are all considering whether it will be their turn to take down the other one. Especially...
, if something like this happens, who is behind it and what is the purpose, this is what they are also very concerned about.
Because except for the Chu family, no one can think of any other family that has the strength to be watertight?
However, this matter was really not done by the Chu family.
At this time, Chu Xiaotong was cursing, "I'm really angry. Such a big shit basin is placed on the Chu family's head. I'm afraid it's not just the Qiu family and the Yun family who are doubting the Chu family, but also the other four families."
Are you looking at the Chu family with suspicious eyes?"
"Brother, we need to discuss this matter in the long term." Fei Xiaoda, the second eldest brother, advised, "Don't be angry. Be careful that your anger will damage your body. It will hurt your relatives and hurt your enemies."
"Second brother, please stop beating around the bush and tell me what you have in mind?"
"What ideas can I have? To be honest, my mind is a mess and I can't figure out which bastard could do such a terrible thing."
"Hey, you two are just too much of a loser. I don't think it's a big deal. If someone is really stumbling behind his back, there will be a time when the weak point is exposed and he dares to make trouble on Tai Sui's head. He won't weigh his own weight.
When the time comes, I will chop him up alive." At this time, Chu Xiaolin, the third child, stood up and said.
Chu Xiaotong felt crazy. It was obviously not their fault, but only the Chu family had this ability.
"If the mastermind behind the scenes intends to frame the Chu family, then if he leaves some evidence that is not very conducive to the Chu family, and those families join forces to attack..." Chu Xiaotong was confused.
Although the Chu family doesn't take them seriously, it is indeed a bit troublesome for them to join forces.
The key question now is: Who in Xi'an has the strength to frame the Chu family?
If it was not intended to frame the Chu family, then what was the purpose of the mastermind behind these two incidents?
If you let me know now,
I just made two phone calls and caused internal panic among the seven major families in Xi'an. How would I feel?
I was preparing to have dinner when I received a text message on my phone. The text message was from Mo Beiying. I immediately looked nervously at Tang Yan who was in the bathroom and opened the text message vigilantly: Qiu Guangming made an appointment to come home for dinner tonight.
I asked Yingying to pick you up and come quickly to help.
"What's going on with Qiu Guangming? Why is he here again?" Helpless, I had no choice but to "ask for leave" from Tang Yan and rush to help Mo Beiying out of trouble.
And when Mo Yingying drove me to Mo Beiying's place, the high-level meeting of the Chu family also reached its climax.
Chu Xiaotong looked at the core figures of the Chu family sitting around him, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and then said: "It seems that everyone thinks that there is a big outside family that wants to enter Xi'an? Moreover, in order not to attract other families,
Attention, they drew all their attention to the Chu family?"
This is the conclusion they reached after discussion.
Because several other possibilities are not true, now, apart from the Chu family, only the big families outside can do such a discreet thing.
"In this case, the Chu family has to be on guard. After all, the mysterious family that can plan such a thing must not be simple. A small wrong decision may ruin the family's foundation for hundreds of years."
The core figures of the Chu family below all nodded, with solemn expressions on their faces. The Chu family was not afraid of overt confrontation, but was afraid of this kind of incomprehensible secret stumbling block. After these two things happened, the Chu family also
He activated his potential power and conducted a secret investigation.
The result is still nothing.
"It seems that it is necessary to invite the heads of the other six families to come and talk face to face." Chu Xiaotong thought for a long time and said in a deep voice: "It is no longer the Chu family's business. And because of these two things,
Several other companies are already doubting us."
"Brother, they may not come back," Chu Xiaoda said.
"Post a hero post." Chu Xiaotong thought for a moment and then made a decision.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar. It was only the last time when an outside family invaded that the Chu family issued a hero post and called a meeting of all family parents.
This hero post was also decided at a meeting of a loose alliance established by the seven families after they joined forces to resist foreign invasion. The loose alliance was firstly to resolve the disputes between the seven families, and secondly, when there was such an invasion from outside, the seven families
The purpose of effective collaboration.
In fact, no one has mentioned this alliance for many years.
The Chu family wanted to use it again.
"Is it necessary to issue a hero post for two unusual murder cases? Now the situation is unclear, and there is not even a shadow of foreign enemies. How can outsiders trust the Chu family?" Chu Xiaoda questioned.
"Brother, you should consider the hero post carefully, right?" Chu Xiaolin said in a deep voice.
"Yes, you have to be careful." Several other people also agreed.
Chu Xiaotong sighed slightly. He felt a deep sense of crisis. If this time was not handled properly, something might really happen to the Chu family. This was his premonition, and it was very strong.
However, I can't just rely on a hunch and send a hero message to the other six families, right? They are still doubting the Chu family. When everyone is called together at this time, will they think that the Chu family did it deliberately?
