Chapter 256: Diverting Trouble
Zhang Chaoyang's face darkened.
He stared at Lao Wei with gloomy eyes, "They are prisoners. What's the difference between men and women? What's the point of talking about innocence? When you become prisoners, your innocence is gone."
Old Wei said sullenly, "Zhang Chaoyang, people have a sense of shame. If they don't, aren't they no different from animals?
Your men searched the bodies of these women in public. Have you ever considered that this might kill them?
If it were the women in your family, would you want them to be treated like this?"
"Stop talking nonsense. So you won't let me do anything today?" Zhang Chaoyang stared at Lao Wei with cold eyes.
"This is my territory. Are you sure that going against me will end well?"
Lao Wei did not back down, but took a step forward:
"You can search them, but you have to let the maids search these women. If your men dare to touch them..."
Old Wei drew his sword and said, "I don't mind going to war."
Lao Wei's refusal to give in made Zhang Chaoyang's face red with anger, but it also made Xu Wuyan raise an eyebrow.
Lao Wei, you still have a bottom line.
Very cute.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn.
Zhang Chaoyang had a gloomy face. He came here with a purpose today. If he failed to achieve it, he would be in trouble.
But the opponent's strength made him unable to back down. If he gave in like this, how would these brothers look at him in the future?
At this moment, Qi Shaojie walked in from outside the crowd.
"Master Zhang, how are you?" Qi Shaojie's voice was a little cold.
When Zhang Chaoyang saw him, he felt like he had seen a ghost. It was unbelievable.
His eyes widened. "Manager Qi, why are you here?"
Did something happen to the Qi family?
Qi Shaojie looked at him expressionlessly, "I am following the orders of my family's head to escort Master Xu and his family to Mocheng. Sir Zhang, do you have any objections?"
Zhang Chaoyang breathed a sigh of relief.
"If Lord Zhang doesn't want to cause trouble, then do as Lord Wei says and send someone to ask a few maids to come and search the female relatives." Qi Shaojie continued.
In fact, according to him, there is no need to pay any attention to Zhang Chaoyang.
Zhang Chaoyang is a villain who bullies the good and fears the evil. You don't need to take him seriously at all.
But now they are on his territory, the Xu family has many people, and he didn’t bring anyone with him.
If a conflict arose and the Xu family was injured, he would have a hard time explaining to the head of the family.
That's why he gave Zhang Chaoren a way out.
Zhang Chaoyang didn't dare to make trouble anymore. He nodded and asked his confidant to bring a few maids over.
He glanced at Qi Shaojie and the Xu family, then turned around and asked the other men to come out and search them first.
He then checked the carriages one by one.
If the Qi family gets involved in this matter, it will be difficult to resolve.
Qi Shaojie looked at Zhang Chaoyang coldly, "Master Zhang, my master has been in a bad mood recently, so it's best not to provoke him.
If he gets angry and attacks, no one can save you. You know what kind of person my master is."
Zhang Chaoyang's body stiffened. He turned his head and looked at Qi Shaojie with an unclear expression. Then he turned around and searched without saying a word.
Why would the Qi family help the Xu family from the capital?
Zhang Chaoyang was puzzled.
But he understood the meaning of Qi Shaojie's words, that the Qi family would protect the Xu family.
Qi Shaojie didn't look at Zhang Chaoyang. He turned around and looked respectfully at Lin Mo and the couple:
"Master Xu and Madam Xu are sorry to have frightened you, but don't worry, with the Qi family here, no one will dare to embarrass you.
Even if someone makes things difficult for you, my Qi family will do our utmost to protect you."
Lin Mo and Xu Wuyan looked at each other, and both understood the meaning in each other's eyes.
The Qi family's name is really useful.
Lin Mo looked at Qi Shaojie with a smile, "Thank you very much this time."
Qi Shaojie shook his head, "It's a small matter."
But he still frowned, "Madam Xu, Master Xu, you'd better be careful. The Shangguan family is the local tyrant in this area. Now that Old Master Shangguan is dead, there's no one to control the people below. I'm afraid some mad dogs will run around and bite people."
Lin Mo nodded, "I know."
She suddenly had an idea. They didn't want to get involved in the Guan family's business, but that didn't mean the Qi family didn't want to.
If the Qi family took over the Shangguan family's business, it would only benefit them and not harm them.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo looked up at Qi Shaojie, "Can you contact your family head? If you contact him, how long will it take for him to respond? Or can you make a decision?"
Qi Shaojie looked at Lin Mo with some confusion, "Is there something urgent, Madam Xu?"
Xu Wuyan understood Lin Mo's meaning. He reached out and patted Qi Shaojie on the shoulder.
"Come with me."
The people around looked at Xu Wuyan and the other person strangely as they walked towards a deserted place, and couldn't help feeling jealous.
"Wherever the Xu family goes, they have supporters. It makes people jealous."
"Exactly. Look how arrogant that Zhang was just now, but he didn't dare to say a word when facing the servants of the Qi family."
"I also want to hug someone with thick thighs. What a pity, we don't have that luck."
…
Lin Mo just glanced at the people who were talking and then looked away.
There are jealous people everywhere. If you try to control them, won’t you get angry to death?
The Shen family...
Lin Mo's eyes fell on the direction of the Shen family. At this time, all the members of the Shen family gathered together, except Zhou Yuxuan who was isolated from the crowd. From time to time, she turned her head to look in the direction of Xu Wuyan and the others.
Looking at Zhou Yuxuan who had been paying attention to Xu Wuyan, Lin Mo was very curious about what role she played in this matter?
She didn't believe that Zhou Yuxuan didn't do anything tricky.
Zhou Yuxuan knew about her past life, and it was very likely that she was involved in Mr. Shangguan’s accident.
After all, she wants to eliminate things that are not good for her and tilt all the benefits to her side.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo's heart moved.
She called Xu Ping'an and whispered in his ear.
Xu Pingan glanced ahead and nodded, "I can try."
Then he took the things Lin Mo handed over, turned around and blended into the crowd.
And on Xu Wuyan's side.
Qi Shaojie looked at Xu Wuyan in astonishment. After a while, he spoke cautiously:
"Master Xu, are you serious?"
"Do I look like someone who would joke with you?" Xu Wuyan shook his head.
"If you're undecided about this matter, you can write to your master as quickly as possible. But I can only tell you that this opportunity is not to be missed.
If you miss it, you will miss it, and your Qi family will lose the opportunity to get a piece of the pie."
If they want to get rid of the Shangguan family, they must find a partner.
No one is more suitable than the Qi family.
He didn't believe that the Qi family didn't have this ambition.
Qi Zhenghuan is also an ambitious man.
Moreover, the Qi family must also have a lot of information about Shangguan.
Qi Shaojie fell silent.
This matter is too big for him to make the decision.
But what Young Master Xu said was right. He didn't have that much time to think about it or wait for a reply from the young master.
But he knew the young master's ambition. If given the opportunity, the young master would definitely take over the Shangguan family's business.
Many people want to take over the Shangguan family's business.
Xu Wuyan didn't force him to make a decision immediately. He reached out and patted Qi Shaojie on the shoulder, then turned and walked towards Lin Mo.
This matter is very important, and Qi Shaojie must think about it. He wants to ask Qi Zhengheng for instructions, but time does not allow it.
Therefore, there will definitely be confusion.
He just needs to wait for Qi Shaojie to make a choice and make him believe that Qi Shaojie will agree.
No one could resist the temptation to replace him, not even him.
It's time for the Shangguan family to be replaced.
Lin Mo looked at Xu Wuyan who was walking back, "How is it?"
"I said, I'm thinking about it." Xu Wuyan replied:
"But I think he'll agree."
Lin Mo glanced at him and asked, "Man's intuition?"
Xu Wuyan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Yes!"
At this moment, the soldiers brought a few maids over, and Zhang Chaoyang also called a group of women over.
Seeing this, Lin Mo whispered something in Xu Wuyan's ear.
Xu Wuyan looked surprised, then nodded solemnly, "I understand, don't worry."
Lin Mo chuckled and walked forward with Xu Xianyu and the others.
Since she wanted to bring down the Shangguan family, how could she do nothing?
At this moment, their battle with the Shangguan family officially began.
Xu Wuyan looked at her back and shook his head. His wife was a brave person.
But her move of diverting the trouble away was a good one.
Drag the Han and Shen families into the water and muddy the water so that they can take advantage of the situation.
Xu Wuyan looked up and saw Qi Shaojie striding towards him with a smile on his face.
Qi Shaojie stood in front of Xu Wuyan, his face gloomy, "I've already thought about it..."
