Duan Shaohong came to Duan Shaoxia angrily with a newspaper in his hand, threw it on the table and said, "What do you mean? Why did you spread the news?"
Duan Shaoxia glanced at the newspaper and saw the headline news: "Lu family falls into trouble, Zhang Bochu seeks wealth by wearing a cuckold."
Duan Shaohong pointed at the newspaper and shouted, "How rude is that? How can we raise our heads in the future?"
Duan Shaoxia had read the newspaper and advised Duan Shaohong, "Why do you care about this? Besides, this matter will be told to others sooner or later. The wedding will be held in a few days. Are you still afraid of others knowing?"
Duan Shaohong pushed Duan Shaoxia away and said, "Now that the job is done, I don't care what others say about it. The job hasn't been done yet..."
As they were talking, Monkey Qiu entered the hall. Duan Shaohong said viciously, "Butler Qiu, you weren't the one who spread this, were you?"
Qiu Zhiheng was startled: "What's the matter?"
Duan Shaohong threw the newspaper to Monkey Qiu: "Look for yourself!"
"Night Jasmine?" Qiu Zhiheng was surprised. "I have never heard of this newspaper."
"You haven't heard of it? This newspaper is selling like crazy in Green Water City. Take a look at what kind of people our family is written about in it."
Qiu Zhiheng shook his head and said, "I don't know about this."
"You didn't know? Who else could it be except you?"
Monkey Qiu suddenly stopped talking.
Duan Shaohong shuddered, lowered his head and said nothing more.
These days, she was always thinking about her son who was about to become the head of the Lu family, which made her forget her own identity.
In Green Water City, even the Lu family had to speak politely to Monkey Qiu.
Duan Shaoxia tried to smooth things over: "Don't worry about it for now, Xiao Qiu, we still have to hurry up and arrange the wedding banquet, the day is almost here."
Monkey Qiu agreed and left the mansion.
He didn't arrange the banquet because it was impossible to do so.
…
Lu Maoxian had lunch at the mansion and read the news in the newspaper.
"What kind of people dare to lay hands on the Lu family?" Lu Maoxian called a guard over. "Take some people with you and teach Zhang Bochu a lesson. Don't beat him to death, but give him a good beating."
Zhi Gua said, "Master, Zhang Bochu has no shame for doing such a thing. What's the point of embarrassing him? Just kill him."
Lu Maoxian looked at Zhi Gua and said, "What a fool! Am I the shameless Zhang Bochu? I am the shameless Monkey Qiu! He even said he wanted to host a banquet, but who can he invite with such a flattering face?"
Just as Zhi Gua left, the butler came again: "Master, the movie you mentioned called "Blood Blade Detective" is about to have its fourth season."
Lu Maoxian nodded and said, "Let the Ghost Hand Sect do it. Tell them that the more they take, the more they get. There is no upper limit."
…
At Yuezhou Third Hospital, He Haisheng left the ward and went downstairs to smoke.
This time he goes, he has to smoke at least one pack of cigarettes. He Haisheng is a smoker, and this is the basic of spiritual practice.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, He Jiaqing pinched the buttons on his chest.
Today, Blood Blade 4 premiered, and he wanted to ask about the movie, but he didn't expect Ling Miaoying to talk about the Lu family first: "Jiaqing, the Lu family's affairs are getting bigger and bigger."
He Jiaqing had already heard about what happened between Lu Yuanshan and Lu Yuanhai. This matter was already big enough, and He Jiaqing couldn't think of anything bigger than this.
Ling Miaoying went on to say, "Duan Shaoxia brought her nephew Zhang Huaiyi home and said that she wanted Zhang Huaiyi to change his surname, recognize him as a relative, and even hold a wedding banquet."
"Zhang Huaiyi? As far as I know, this man is indeed Lu Dongliang's offspring, but his status is wrong, and the Lu family will not recognize this. Whose idea was this? Monkey Qiu? He is not so confused, right?"
Ling Miaoying said, "I think it was Duan Shaoxia's idea. She must be desperate. Jiaqing, should we take care of this?"
He Jiaqing smiled and said, "Why bother? Let them fight each other. I want to see who will win. How's the movie business going?"
Ling Miaoying wanted to use the Lu family's affairs to get around the movie issue, but she failed.
"Jiaqing, our film was stolen."
He Jiaqing's face darkened: "How much did you steal?"
"Six."
On the day of the premiere, six reels of the film were stolen, proving that six theaters did not show The Bleeding Blade.
He Jiaqing was silent for a moment, then asked in a relatively gentle tone: "Who stole it?"
If Ling Miaoying answered that she didn't know, things would be troublesome.
Fortunately, he found some clues: "It should be done by the Ghost Hand Sect."
"Ghost Hand Sect? Why did they steal the film?"
"He must have been instructed by someone."
"Who ordered this?"
Ling Miaoying hesitated for a long time and said, "I'm still investigating."
He Jiaqing fell silent again, and Ling Miaoying's sweat kept falling.
After a while, He Jiaqing finally spoke: "I will write a letter for you. You can personally hand it to Xie Juncong, the leader of the Ghost Hand Sect, and ask him to tell you the mastermind behind the scenes."
Ling Miaoying wiped the sweat off her face and said, "The Ghost Hand Sect takes money to do things, so they probably won't easily reveal their employer. Xie Juncong's cultivation is not low. If I force him..."
"No need to force him. He will tell you naturally after reading the letter."
…
That night, someone handed the letter to Ling Miaoying. Ling Miaoying did not dare to delay and took the letter directly to an old house to the east of Houtang City God Temple. She knocked on the door three times and waited for a response.
The gatekeeper asked, "Who is it?"
Ling Miaoying told the truth: "The third son of the Ling family is here to pay a visit to the head of the Xie family."
When they heard that someone from the Ling family was coming, everyone in the mansion was very nervous. Ling Miaoying heard it clearly outside the door: "Don't worry, everyone, I'm not here to cause trouble. I just want to deliver a letter to the boss."
The gatekeeper quickly told Xie Juncong the news. The old man had just fallen asleep when he heard Ling Miaoying coming to deliver the letter. He took out two magic weapons and put them on his body, and asked his disciples to invite Ling Miaoying in.
When the two met, Xie Juncong clasped his fists and saluted: "Boss Ling, what can I do for you?"
He thought Ling Miaoying came to question him about the film issue.
He is not afraid of being questioned. Xie Juncong has experienced a lot of such things. He will definitely not admit to catching a thief and seizing stolen goods without evidence. If Ling Miaoying is ruthless, Xie Juncong can also take it.
But I didn't expect that Ling Miaoying really came to deliver a letter.
Xie Juncong took the letter, unfolded it, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead uncontrollably.
With his knowledge and cultivation, there are not many things that can make him sweat.
Ling Miaoying was very curious about what was written in the letter, but Xie Juncong asked Ling Miaoying to sit down first, and then bowed to her respectfully: "Boss Ling, we took the wrong business and offended you.
We have burned the stolen films as ordered by our employer. We have delayed your work, and we are willing to pay compensation. Please name your price."
He admitted it?
Xie Juncong actually took the initiative to admit the incident?
What methods did He Jiaqing use?
Now even Ling Miaoying can’t understand.
"Even if the film incident has been exposed, I came here this time to ask who is the owner of this business?"
Xie Juncong looked unhappy. He didn't want to say that this was not in line with the rules of the Ghost Hand Sect.
But after hesitating for a while, he still said: "It's the old man of the Lu family, Lu Maoxian."
…
"Lu Maoxian?" He Jiaqing was very annoyed when he received the news, "Why is this old ghost bothering us?"
Ling Miaoying said: "We have always had a good relationship with Mr. Lu, but the recent events are confusing.
A few days ago, he found a few writers to publish an article in the newspaper, implying that some movie companies had bad intentions. I went to inquire about the situation, and Lu Maoxian said that he was referring to others and it had nothing to do with us.
After a while, many theaters pulled our film, and I went to inquire about the situation, and it turned out that Lu Maoxian was behind the trouble. "
He Jiaqing frowned and said, "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"
Ling Miaoying said: "Jiaqing, you haven't contacted me these days, and you didn't let me contact you actively, so I didn't have a chance to say anything."
"Lu Maoxian has always wanted to be the head of the Lu family. We have helped him a lot before. Why does he want to cause trouble for us?" He Jiaqing was also a little confused.
Ling Miaoying didn't answer, he couldn't figure it out either.
After thinking for a moment, He Jiaqing smiled and said, "This old guy is doing business over our heads."
Ling Miaoying asked: "What do you mean?"
He Jiaqing said: "The two brothers of the Lu family were plotted against, which must be related to Lu Maoxian, but it would be difficult to accomplish this task with Lu Maoxian alone.
He must have found a backer who helped him, but this backer couldn't help him for nothing, he must have asked for a reward, and that reward is with us."
Ling Miaoying asked: "Who is his backer?"
He Jiaqing said calmly: "The backer is a big shot. My encounter with Lu Huazi is probably related to him.
Lu Maoxian's old bones need to be beaten up. He caused me to lose a hand before, and now he is causing trouble for us again.
This time I have to hit him hard, and hit him on the face. Then I’ll see how he responds, and then I’ll be able to find out who’s behind it.”
…
There are two days left until the first day of July. Lu Maoxian booked Zuixianlou and invited many people from various branches of the Lu family.
After three rounds of drinks, Lu Maoxian arranged a show to liven up the atmosphere.
He asked someone to bring Zhang Huaiyi's father, Zhang Bochu, with a rope and walk in front of everyone.
After everyone had looked at it, the two guards made Zhang Bochu kneel at Lu Maoxian's feet.
Lu Maoxian looked at Zhang Bochu kindly and asked with a smile, "Do you want to ask for help from the Lu family?"
Zhang Bochu cried, "No, I don't dare."
His speech was slurred and his teeth were all knocked out.
Lu Maoxian asked again: "Does your son want to be the head of my Lu family?"
"I dare not, I dare not..." Zhang Bochu cried until he was stupid.
Lu Maoxian patted Zhang Bochu's face and said with a smile: "Take your wife and son and get out of Green Water City today, otherwise I will make your whole family leave in an orderly manner."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole room of Zuixianlou cheered.
"The old man is so domineering!"
"The Lu family's reputation depends entirely on the old man!"
"Mr. Zhang, take your family and get out of here right away. As long as our old man is still alive, don't even think about touching a penny of our Lu family!"
Zhang Bochu was thrown out of the door of Zuixianlou and crawled back home.
Lu Maoxian continued to eat and drink. After the banquet, he also invited several famous actors from Green Water City to perform in turn.
After the three plays, Lu Maoxian was not very satisfied, so he called the theater owner and asked him to change to some more lively plays.
The troupe owner was arranging a change of play with his subordinates when an invisible wall trapped everyone backstage.
The troupe owner was panicked, not knowing what had happened. He thought he was too slow in changing the play and had offended Old Master Lu.
After a while, several men in white shirts and gray vests unfolded a curtain on the stage, and a movie suddenly began to be played on the screen.
Lu Maoxian was stunned and asked Zhigua to ask the theater owner what was going on.
The Lu family didn't know what was going on and thought it was the old man's arrangement.
The movie goes straight to the point and opens with a beautiful girl.
The girl has a conscience, and she displays it openly on the screen.
The Lu family watched with great interest, and praised as they watched: "Our old man is quite fashionable. This is as fashionable as "Bloodshot". How did he know that we like to watch this?"
After a while, Lu Maoxian also appeared on the screen.
The Lu family members exclaimed: "Our old man is extraordinary. He even makes a movie himself."
After a while, Lu Maoxian patted the girl's conscience and went into battle.
The Lu family was shocked for a moment, then they exclaimed: "Are you serious? Our old man is quite strong. He is so old, yet he still has this ability!"
After a while, Lu Maoxian wiped the sweat off his face and ended the battle.
The Lu family thought for a moment and continued to admire: "Our old man is indeed domineering. He is so old, even if he is younger, he is still domineering."
Someone nearby asked, "Do you mean the time is short?"
"It's not just about time... well, it's just domineering!"
Lu Maoxian gritted his teeth but didn't dare to move.
Ling Miaoying stood behind him and said in a low voice, "Old Master Lu, how was today's show?"
Lu Maoxian responded: "You want to kill me? If we really fight here, you may not stand a chance."
There are so many members of the Lu family present, and Lu Maoxian also has the seventh level of cultivation. Although Ling Miaoying has the upper hand, she may not be able to kill Lu Maoxian.
Ling Miaoying smiled and said, "Old Master, it's not worth risking your life for such a small matter.
It's just a movie, isn't it? Why get so angry?
If you are not satisfied with the show, I have a lot of good stuff.
I will edit a movie for you tomorrow and send it to the cinema. It will be called "Lu Maoxian, Still Strong and Strong at Old Age". Do you think it is suitable?"
