Nomenclature of Night

  Chapter 321 Non-My Race, Their Hearts Must Be Different

  In the evening, the sunset and red sun are vivid.

  Out of the Akiba Garden.

  The door is empty. .

  Everyone's figures are stretched very long by the sun, and occasionally they are intertwined.

   Qingchen raised his foot and followed the servant to the venue.

On the way to   , he asked Li Shu and others: "Are there many family meetings like this before?"

"Not much," Li Shu shook his head: "Usually it is held every year after offering sacrifices to the ancestral hall. Representatives of various factions in the family will report the most important settlement data to the head of the family, and then conduct personnel affairs for the new year. appointment."

  "How long does it usually take to drive?" Qing Chen asked curiously.

   "Three days and three nights," Li Shu said with a smile: "Many people go to this kind of meeting and they all wear adult diapers."

  Qingchen has heard that some large companies in the world will have such long meetings. Participants put on adult diapers to avoid going to the toilet.

  The atmosphere of the meeting was so serious that the participants did not even dare to say to go to the bathroom.

  In Qingchen’s impression, the old man is a very kind person. Will this kind of person presiding over a meeting also make the members of the family fear?

  Perhaps, this is what the superiors must do.

   "The old man Li, is he serious on weekdays?" Qing Chen asked.

Li Shu explained: "Grandpa is not particularly serious. He just acts simply and decisively. He decides and then moves. When he makes any decision, it will be difficult to change. Everyone is afraid of this meeting. It’s important. A meeting will re-appoint and remove dozens or hundreds of people. It will even determine the fate of certain factions in the family in the next few years. No one dares to take it lightly. Some people lose power at the meeting and may not be able to do so for decades. Back to the center of power."

  At this time, the servant led them to the meeting place.

  It's just that when everyone walked in, they suddenly realized that there was no one in the whole hall.

  The venue is not here!

  Li Ke said: “There are a total of two venues in Mid-Levels Manor, one is called Shouzhen and the other is Mingli. The meeting must be held in the other.”

   Everyone turned to look at the servants, but they saw the servants say with trepidation: "I'm sorry everyone, I don't know what's going on, the order I received is to bring everyone to the ‘Shouzhen’ venue!"

  Li Shu looked towards Qingchen: "Sir, maybe someone does not want you to attend the meeting."

   Qingchen smiled, obviously yes.

  Some people do not want him to attend the conference.

  Since the servant told him that he had the right not to participate, he knew it was a hint.

   Qingchen thought for a while: "How far is the other venue from here?"

   "Twenty minutes of walking," Li Ke replied, "According to the time, the meeting should start in ten minutes."

   "Interesting," Qing Chen laughed.

  This is something he didn't expect, but it's not particularly unexpected.

  If there was no such intrigue in the big house, Qing Chen would find it a little strange.

  When the inherent power class discovers that there are newcomers, they will always spare no effort to suppress it, because everyone knows that the cake is that big, and one more person means an extra portion.

  Just... he is just a teacher, why should he be targeted?

  Li Shu whispered: "Sir, now everyone is saying that you are the illegitimate child of the old man. It is said that the old man wants you to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors and worship in the ancestral hall..."

   Qing Chen is shocked, that's how it is!

  It is the old man who treats him so well that many people have misunderstood something.

  Yes, the teacher of teaching will naturally not affect the interests of others, but the illegitimate child who recognizes the ancestor is different.

  The problem is... he is not an illegitimate child!

  Look at this trouble!

   Qingchen said: "Let's go, let's go to the next venue."

  Li Shu said, "Sir, they deliberately made you late. Are you not angry?"

  Although he has not formally bowed his head to apprentice, but during this time Qingchen's selfless teaching, coupled with Qingchen's hard work to empower them, all students are sympathetic.

  Now that my husband has been put together, I naturally feel very unconvinced.

"I'm angry, I'm quite a grudge, but it's useless for you to be angry with a servant here, he's also a errandman," Qing Chen said flatly, "But, just set off wherever you want to go. There can be nothing wrong."

  Li Shu and others looked at each other and immediately followed.

  ...

  ...

  Mingli’s venue was filled with nearly a hundred people.

  An empty long table in the middle, with only 11 people sitting in total, and the rest sitting in the auditorium not far away.

  The aura of these 11 people is stronger than the other, and the people in the audience seats around don't even dare to look at them at will.

  No matter what decision these people make, it can affect the destiny of millions of people.

  Beside the long table, a thin middle-aged man asked: "How is the old man's health? Holding a family meeting at this time will not have any effect on his health? Brother, don't you persuade him."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Li Yunshou who was sitting in the first position on the left.

  Li Yunshou ignored him, just silently looked at the file in his hand.

  To participate in this meeting, all documents must be presented in paper form, and all electronic devices are also forbidden to enter.

  If a member carries a mechanical limb, someone outside the venue will be responsible for dismantling and keeping it.

  After the meeting, there will be a special mechanical limb doctor responsible for installing them back.

  This rule has led to the fact that there are still a few people in the auditorium who lack arms and legs, which looks very strange.

"Hey, the meeting should have started a long time ago. Why hasn't the old man been here yet," said a middle-aged woman beside the long table: "In the past, he was the most punctual person. I remember he used to guard the door a few years ago. , If any of us is late, we have to review it."

  Li Yunye looked at a servant: "Go, ask what's going on."

  The servant of Baopulou quickly ran out, and then quickly ran back: "The old man said, wait until everyone is gathered before the meeting."

  Everyone in the venue was taken aback.

  Waiting for everyone?

  Among all the people present, only a group of people have not arrived, and everyone knows why that group of people have not arrived.

  It’s just that they didn’t expect that the punctual and generous old man would suddenly become self-willed at this time.

  It was just that the teacher was placed in a row and went to the wrong place.

  It’s such a small matter, the old man even delayed the meeting!

  In the auditorium of the venue, everyone began to discuss, how can this teacher, how can he make the old man such a preference?

The skinny middle-aged man knocked on the long table in front of him, and said to himself: "Have you heard that we have an illegitimate child in the Li family? The old man asked the Li family’s children to approve his status and gave him Qiuye House, what do you want to do? Let me make it clear to you first, I don't recognize such a younger brother. Our Li family has rules since hundreds of years, and illegitimate children are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall."

  Li Changqing sat down and looked at the ceiling, letting his brother speak out, but he didn't care at all.

  This middle-aged man is called Li Yunye. He is extremely shrewd and capable in business. He is in charge of mining and power projects, many of which are Li’s pillar industries and are extremely aggressive in business.

  Li Yunye treats his brothers and sisters very well on weekdays, and there is nothing wrong with being domineering.

  Only one thing is that this person has a very strong sense of territory, and no one else can touch his possessions.

   "Brother Nine," Li Changqing said suddenly, "No one said he was the illegitimate child of the old man. If you don't believe in rumors, you don't spread rumors. Also, don't mention this kind of thing at family meetings."

   Li Yunya calmly said: “I’m just worried that if I haven’t come back this time, someone will say something deceptive next to the old man.”

  Li Yunshou closed the file in front of him, and said calmly: "The old man has never fainted, so don't worry about this."

  At this time, Mingli walked into a group of people outside the venue.

  Everyone looked over, and it was Qing Chen and Li Ke who were late.

  Li Yunye did not speak, but looked at Qing Chen carefully.

It's just that Qing Chen didn't look at him, but at the long table in the middle.

  The extra chairs there have been removed, and none of them is for him.

  At this moment, many people watched this scene silently, wanting to see what the teacher who came out of the martial arts hall would do.

  Is it coming to the long table and asking for a chair, or sitting silently in the gallery?

  If you want a chair, then no servant dared to help him move it. Moving the chair by himself is a bit too cheap.

  If you are sitting in the auditorium, then you don’t need to say anything in the future, and Li will no longer have his place on the long table.

  The power within this consortium, everyone has gone through countless struggles before finally winning the chair by the long table.

  The chair is unremarkable, but it is something countless people dream of.

  However, in this delicate atmosphere, Li Ke behind Qingchen suddenly walked out, moved a chair from the auditorium, and placed it right next to the long table: "Sir, please sit down."

  Speaking, Li Ke also wiped the chair surface clean with his sleeve.

  The chair is not dirty. If the chair of the Li family meeting is dirty, I am afraid that some servants will be exiled.

  And when Li Ke did this, it was clear that he was acting for everyone. The successors of the Li family’s big room who were eligible to enter the ancestral hall would wipe the chairs for the husband, and the others should stop doing little tricks.

  The people in the auditorium were all stunned. They didn't expect Li Ke to be so low in the family meeting.

  Several people on the long table were stunned. Even Li Changqing was a little surprised. Her original plan was that no servant would dare to disobey her orders if she asked for a chair.

  However, it is obvious that she does not need to come forward now, and Qing Chen can solve the problem on her own.

  At the long table, Li Yunye looked back at his elder brother Li Yunshou, somewhat uncertain, he was not sure if his elder brother instructed his son to do it.

  Li Yunshou’s expression is always as calm as Longhu. He looked at Li Yunye: “Don’t think about it, he hasn’t even moved a chair for me once.”

   Implication, this matter has nothing to do with Li Yunshou.

  Like a thin tiger, Li Yunye touched the stubble on his chin with interest: "Interesting."

   Qingchen came to the long table and sat down. He didn't say hello to anyone, but just sat there quietly maintaining his breathing technique, closing his eyes and resting.

  It seems that I don’t care much about everything.

  Li Ke, Li Shu and others sat behind him, and they also said nothing.

  If the occasion is not too grand, Li Shu and the others even hope that their husband can take them into Dhamma, and don’t delay their practice during the meeting.

  The men in the army are the most pragmatic. They know very well how effective they will be on the battlefield if they can practice as soon as possible to become extraordinary.

  At this time, someone outside the venue pushed a wheelchair in. The person pushing the wheelchair was the middle-aged man who gave Qing Chen a reference, and the wheelchair was a very weak old man.

  But seeing the old man's face pale, lips blue, and more than a dozen doctors and nurses waiting outside the venue, ready to rescue him at any time.

  Qing Chenxin said, when you were fishing on the edge of Longhu, it was not like this.

  Why is this still acting!

  And let alone, the acting skills are quite superb, the feeling of breathlessness is extremely realistic.

  Qing Chen looked around and found that the other people's expressions were normal.

  Does he know that the old man is acting? !

  No, Li Yunshou must be well aware of it, but the rest is really uncertain.

  In fact, what Qing Chen didn't know was that no one wanted to go near Longhu. There were special guardians there on weekdays, and even Li Shu and Li Ke were not close.

  Banshan Manor is not really peaceful, it's just that Qing Chen has seen the most peaceful side.

The old man didn’t look at Qing Chen. He just sat weakly in a wheelchair and said, “I’m not ill, so I’m going to make a long story short at this meeting. Whether you listen to these words as a will or admonition, I just need you to listen to them."

  The old man continued: "The first thing is, as long as the Li clan is still there, then clearing the two families of God and Kashima will be the goal and pursuit of the Li clan for generations."

  "The second thing is that Li Yunyi's genetic medicine industry and intelligence industry are all given to Li Changqing. In the future federal turmoil, intelligence agencies must be in the hands of one person, and there can be no more differences."

  This is the appointment and dismissal of personnel, and only said that Li Yun changed power, but did not say that he was given any new responsibilities.

  This shows that the old man is very dissatisfied with Li Yunyi’s past work, and Li Yunyi’s lineage will hardly have the opportunity to enter the core power in the next few decades.

  "The third thing, no matter when, the northern exchange cannot stop."

  "The fourth thing, within 30 years, the fiscal and taxation bill cannot make concessions in this regard. This is one of the foundations of Li's family."

   "The fifth item..."

  The old man said more than ten things in a row, and at the end: “The nineteenth thing, the Li family pays attention to the order of the young and the teacher, and respects the teachers. Don’t forget the traditions of the old Li family.”

  Many people in the venue were stunned. This was clearly made specifically for Qing Chen, meaning that everyone should not question Qing Chen’s status in the Li family!

  In these nineteen things, the old man did not even mention the transfer of the Federal Army, nor did he mention who would take over as the head of the Patriarch. Instead, he mentioned respecting the teacher and respecting the way.

  This makes many people do not understand.

  At this time, the old man said: "Okay, I'm finished, do you have anything to say?"

  Beside the long table, Li Yunyi suddenly stood up: "Dad, what did I do wrong, why did I give my power to Li Changqing, what does she have..."

  Before he finished speaking, the old man suddenly passed out into a coma.

  For a time, the entire venue was in a mess, and Li Yunshou, the calmest person on weekdays, roared: "Doctor, nurse, come in and rescue!"

  In the hall, everyone in the auditorium was at a loss. Li Yun stood there blankly. He didn't expect that he would not even have the opportunity to argue.

  After the doctor rushed in, another soldier walked into the venue with guns and live ammunition: "Please leave in an orderly manner."

   Qingchen walked out according to the soldier's instructions, confused. At a certain moment, even he wondered whether the old man's condition suddenly worsened.

  After all, the old man has been staying on the edge of Longhu Lake during this period of time. It is cold and humid, and it is very possible to aggravate his condition.

  However, at this moment, Li Changqing passed by him under the **** of Lao Jiu: "Now it's just entering the night, you will wait for me in the Qiuye Bieyuan, I will be there later."

  Qingchen can't laugh or cry, the old man is critically ill. This guy has the heart to go out to play. The other party made it clear that he was an insider and knew that the old man was pretending.

  Thinking of this, he also let go.

  After leaving the venue, Qing Chen didn't know where to go, so he walked to Longhu with a ghost.

  Just when he walked there on foot, he suddenly found that under the moonlight, the old man had changed his clothes and sat there and started to pinch the bait!

  Qingchen walked over without angrily: "Your acting is too perfunctory. You were very ill and dying half an hour ago. You came to go fishing half an hour later?"

  The old man also said angrily: "You don't worry about what's going on with me. When I am seriously ill, you come to Longhu to touch my dragon fish?"

"With each other," Qing Chen did not bring a small horse today, and simply sat cross-legged next to the old man: "Who are you acting for? This venue is full of turmoil, so I just used it as a memorial service and the funeral home started crying. ."

"It's not for anyone to watch," the old man sighed. "The main reason is that the previous meetings were too long. Every time I announce a decision, they have to fight for a long time. I have to spend several days to balance the big things. , How great this time is, and I will leave when I finish speaking. I see who would dare to ask me anything. I'm dying, and I need to waste time dealing with them?"

  Qing Chen dumbly: "You did such a big battle just because of this?"

  A top leader of the consortium used such a naive trick just to prevent everyone from quarreling at the meeting.

  This kind of subverted his concept.

   But think about it carefully, these high-ranking people are also human.

The old man squinted at the young man: "The last few days of the old man's life are not precious? In order not to waste these few days, no matter how big the battle is, the time I have now cannot be overstated by the second. ."

   "Okay, it does make sense," Qing Chen said with emotion.

The old man raised his hand and threw the fishing hook out. While looking at the fishing float, he said, "When I was young, I always thought I had a lot of time. I always told myself that I can wait and do what I like. But ah, my life It’s just wasted in these worldly fame and fortune. I have to balance this, balance that, and think about pretending to be critically ill sooner. I am afraid that I will be able to let go and be at ease long ago."

  Qing Chenxin said, you have been critically ill for decades, and everyone will not believe it anymore.

  He asked: "However, I thought you would mention the heir or something in the meeting, but didn't mention a word."

  The old man smiled and said, "What do you know, small meetings for small things, small meetings for big things, how can the most important decision be made in a meeting of hundreds of people? It's all discussed in advance."

   "These ten words are brilliant," Qing Chen said, "I thought you were worried about a **** in the venue, so you deliberately didn't say the most important thing."

   "It's impossible to make a conclusion for those who are not rapes," the old man said slowly, "but there will be results soon."

  "Really?" Qing Chen curiously asked, "As a big figure in the Li's consortium, why would you want to betray your family?"

The old man said: "It's not that everyone is in power. For example, someone like Li Yunyi who has just been seized of power, do you think he has grievances? Of course I am not saying that Li Yunyi is a traitor. The Li family has been grieving for hundreds of years. There are too many, and the benefits of this world have never been fairly distributed."

   "Understood," Qing Chen nodded.

  The old man suddenly said: "I may not come to Longhu in the next few days. You can pick up the fish by yourself. Anyway, you can fish faster than me."

  Qingchen suddenly asked, “Why are you treating me so well? I mean, you don’t actually need to do this.”

The old man smiled and said, "How can there be so many whys? In this life, people can only be willful when they are children and old people. If a child is messing around, you can say that he is still young and old willful. You can say that he is old. Confused, only in the middle of the time you have to face the responsibility soberly. Before, I didn’t dare to hurt any grandson. I looked at those little figures so cute, but if I just hug anyone, the manor will There will be legends about which room I prefer, and what signals are released."

"Now, I'm almost in the soil, whatever they think," the old man said with a cheerful smile: "They all say you are my illegitimate child. It's funny when I look at them and guess. Haven't you seen me? Today, when I told them to respect their teachers, their expressions were absolutely stunning."

  Qing Chenxin said, co-authoring you just to tease everyone on purpose. What did you say?

The old man continued: "Your master is also very interesting. He took in his apprentices and didn't take them with him, and then ran to the north to do things. He entrusted you to me before leaving, saying that you are not by nature cold, but no one I have taught you that there is another kind of affection in this world. So, I will let you feel it."

   Qing Chen was silent. Before this crossing, he had just faced the dispensable family affection in the world, but finally he was here and faced another extreme.

  Sometimes, although he knows that he is a person of the world, he does not know why he is closer to the world.

  Now the antagonism in the outside world is getting more serious. If some people know what he thinks, I am afraid he will be scolded.

   "Why does Lee dislike God and Kashima so much?" Qing Chen asked about other things: "The world is because of national hatred, where is the world?"

  The old man thought for a while and said: "If you are not my race, their hearts will be different."

   "Because of this?" Qing Chen asked.

The old man glanced at him: "If they are not your compatriots, then they will not treat your compatriots as human beings at all. That is a natural barrier between races. If one day they take control of the Federation, then all the Central Plains people They are all inferior, and only those who are full of beaks are superior."

As he said, the old man raised his hand and handed the arowana that bit the hook to Qing Chen: "I didn't expect that Li Ke would be so loyal to you, remember to treat him well... In addition, remember the agreement between you and me. "

   "I will not forget."
