The Beauty in the Peasant Family - C223
“That bastard of mine is naturally sincere …”
Seeing that the Wang Nu had become more talkative, Qin Wuya slightly frowned. In the end, she couldn’t help but say, “Grandma, I guess there’s a lot of work to do in the courtyard. I’m a little tired, so I want to rest first. ”
Wang Nu would never look at people’s faces again, so she knew that Qin Wuya’s rest words had a hidden meaning: she hated her for saying too much and wanted to send her out, so she wanted to leave her in peace.
Wang Nu’s face turned white, she wanted to say more, but Qin Wuya leaned on the bed and closed her eyes.
With this, the Wang Nu naturally could not say anymore, and left with an extremely unsightly expression, not forgetting to cover the door for Qin Wuya.
Actually, Qin Wuya was still suspicious of Fang Da’s actions of being sent to the Old Hall’s Wall in Liubei County.
Although Fang Da’s character was a bit jarring, he did not lose his sense of propriety.
Even if he did say the wrong things occasionally, with He Feng, the strategist who handled all matters, helping him recuperate, it was impossible for anything to really happen to be enough to make Zhang Shan dislike him, or to the point of him wanting to kick him out.
It was very obvious that Fang Da’s mistake of getting beaten up by Zhang Shan in Liubei County was just a public statement.
And what is the true purpose of this meaning?
Qin Wuya was not easy to guess, and did not want to guess either. Ever since she married Zhang Shan, she had not thought of extending her hand to the anterior chamber.
In Qin Wuya’s previous life, she was an ordinary person who lived a peaceful life. Even if she married a small head of a gang, she still wouldn’t be able to be a female tyrant. As long as she managed the area around her well, she would be able to control the business, and it would be enough if she could avoid losing her man.
However, Qin Wuya did not want to know about Zhang Shan’s affairs in Chao Chung Hall, but it did not mean that Zhang Shan would not listen to him if he was trying to tell Qin Wuya about it in private.
Qin Wuya was not a person who would like to cause trouble, but she was not a delicate beauty who could not handle matters.
Since Zhang Shan was willing to speak, then she will listen. However, most of them only heard nothing, and after a long time, they managed to get a general idea of the people in anterior chamber.
This day, Wang Nu went to the anterior chamber and asked around about his son. Obviously, she could not hide the truth from Zhang Shan. Thus, when they went into the night and sat on the bed to chat, Zhang Shan told them about Fang Da.
His words were not clear, but Qin Wuya could roughly guess what he wanted to say from the meaning behind Zhang Shan’s words.
Originally, there was no need to care too much about it. However, somehow, the two forces that had been stationed in Old Hall started to dislike each other, and eventually began to cause a ruckus in public.
Zhang Shan felt that this matter was a little strange, and wanted Fang Da to go over to have a look. However, it was not good for others to know the reason, so he openly picked out Fang Da’s fault, and only told him to go to the Old Hall in Liubei County to think about it for half a month.
Zhang Shan pretended to hear these words as gossip, but Qin Wuya could tell that something was amiss from what she heard.
Zhang Shan was the manager of the Chao Chung Hall, and the only Chao Chung Hall was one of the thirteen halls amongst the Qing Gang.
As the saying goes, a great emperor lived far away, and would not be affected by the orders of a sovereign outside. No matter how special the status of the Main Hall was within the Qing Gang, it was difficult to guarantee that the other twelve halls would become the vassal lords of their respective clans.
Of course, this was not all speculation of the Main Hall. In fact, ever since the establishment of the Qing Gang, there had been 12 other halls in addition to the Main Hall.
As for Chao Chung Hall, he had already found a bargaining chip against the main faction in the previous family head, who was also Zhang Shan’s master. It was just that in the entire Great Qing Sect, there were not only people who were eyesore at the main hall. The other eleven halls were also eyeing them covetously, just like the Chao Chung Hall.
At this time, if one of them dared to rebel against the Main Hall, they would not be able to get the same result in the future. Instead, they would be attacked by the other eleven halls, turning into a ‘Mantis’ that was destined to be killed by Qing Jun.
The leaders of the other eleven halls were not stupid, and naturally, the elders of the Chao Chung Hall were not stupid either.
Because of this, there were many large and ambitious people in the Thirteenth Hall of the Qing Gang. However, all of these powers were on guard against each other and supported each other at the same time, making the Qing Gang the largest clan within the Cloud Prefecture and even within the entire northwest of the Grand Dynasty.
However, the more Qing Gang drew, the more they got. It was inevitable that there would be people who were restless and restless.
Obviously, the person sitting in the main hall couldn’t stand it any longer, so he started to use his own men.
And at this time, whether or not the Chao Chung Hall really had this intention or if they were planning to make a move after that, it was inevitable that they would become the target of suspicion.
There were two reasons for this.
Firstly, the power of the Chao Chung Hall Sect was indeed quite strong, and the jurisdiction of the Chao Chung Hall was similar to the main hall’s within the borders of the Cloud Prefecture. Furthermore, the main hall of the Chao Chung Hall that was located at the mouth of the Liu River was only a little more than half a day away.
As the saying goes, you can’t allow others to sleep in peace on the side of the bed.
Even though Zhang Shan had openly relocated half of his brothers to Clear Water Town, which was even more remote than the Liubei County, in order to avoid danger and in the name of his marriage, he was still unable to dispel the suspicions and suspicions of the Main Hall Master.
But the second reason, was because Zhang Shan was clearly easier to deal with than the rest of the eleven halls’ families who were in the right and had a firm foundation. Zhang Shan, who had been ordered by the Chao Chung Hall’s Great Elder to set off by his family in the face of danger.
Once things succeeded, wouldn’t it be easier for the Main Hall to take over the Chao Chung Hall’s territory?
No matter how it was calculated, Zhang Shan was still the first person the Main Hall picked to be the first to go.
And the truth was indeed like that. The dispute between the two forces of Liubei County had ceased long ago, and it had only happened at this time. How could they say that it was only a coincidence, who would believe it?
Just like the Main Hall Master had predicted, compared to the other 11 elders who had a solid foundation, Zhang Shan, the manager, would not be able to do anything.
Although no one seemed to object to the matter of Zhang Shan being ordered by the old Hall Master to become a family member, in private, other than a few brothers who had already been under Zhang Shan’s command before, most of the other powers were just spectating, and were not willing to listen to him, and naturally did not want to be controlled by any other powers.
For this reason, they were easily provoked by the spies of the Hall of Healing, causing a dispute that should not have been stirred up.
Qin Wuya was not surprised at all. But what Qin Wuya found strange was that Zhang Shan had sent Fang Da to deal with the farce in Liubei County.
Qin Wuya did not go to the front courtyard very often, but she knew clearly that the few hundred brothers that had followed Zhang Shan from the Liubei County into the new hall were all Zhang Shan’s men.
Based on Zhang Shan’s temperament and methods, he would most likely let those who were a little bit opposite of him stay in the Old Hall to be tormented by those who had ulterior motives, and wouldn’t bring them in front of him to obstruct his way.
Since they were all on the same side as him, he still had to cover it up by saying that this so-called ‘one of his own people’ probably had a god of retribution that shouldn’t have come at the wrong time.
Zhang Shan, who was sitting beside Qin Wuya, understood the crux of the matter when she saw her furrowed brows. She was pleased and happy, but at the same time, she felt a bit of heartache.
With that, he reached out his hand to hold Qin Wuya in his embrace, bent over and kissed Qin Wuya’s forehead lightly, and said:
“Don’t frown, it’s just a small matter, there’s no need to worry.”
How could it really be just a small matter? Zhang Shan said this because he didn’t want Qin Wuya to worry about him too.
Qin Wuya naturally knew that Zhang Shan’s personality was somewhat manly, so she knew that at this time, not only would she not help solve the problem, she would also make it more difficult for Zhang Shan if she objected.
As she thought about it, she simply followed his words, gently smiled, and did the rare act of a small bird following a person, gently nestling in Zhang Shan’s chest and talking about the trivial matters that happened in the courtyard during the day.
Zhang Shan was not annoyed at all, he just laughed and listened, and occasionally he interjected a sentence or two, and the two of them seemed to have selectively tossed the topic that they seemed to be bearing the weight of before to the back of their minds.
But Fang Da had other important responsibilities, so Qin Wuya did not really forget about Xu San, and practically told Zhang Shan what she was thinking in the midst of the idle talk.
Zhang Shan laughed when he heard it: “Don’t worry, in Wu Prefecture, there is an inn called ‘Shunqing Restaurant’. The shopkeeper inside is one of my people. Since Xu San has gone to the Wu Prefecture, if there are no accidents, he will be settled inside the Shunqing Tower. If you have something to tell him, you can just send a letter to someone else tomorrow. ”
“Shunqing?” Hearing that, Qin Wuya became suspicious, and asked immediately: “A few days ago when I was cleaning up the books, I did not see any property under your name that was owned by the Cloud Prefecture, is this Shunqing Restaurant the foundation of the entire hall?”
“No.” Zhang Shan shook his head and laughed:
“The Qing Gang has branches in the Wu Prefecture as well. They are all part of the Thirteenth Hall, the Master of the Thirteenth Hall, Liu Da Ren. Don’t think that this person’s name sounds like he’s a kind person, but he’s famous for being ruthless and merciless. Furthermore, he likes to do evil things, how can he open my Chao Chung Hall’s shop in his territory safely?
That Shunqing Restaurant can be considered my private property, but it didn’t fall under my name and it’s impossible for people to land in the public accounts of the hall. Apart from He Feng and I, you are the third person that knows about the existence of Wu Prefecture’s Shunqing Tower. ”
“Then the Shunqing Restaurant is under He Feng’s name?” Qin Wuya asked.
“Smart. However, it did not directly fall under his name. There are quite a few people in the Thirteenth Hall who know of He Feng, and they fell under the title of his mother’s brothers. ” Zhang Shan said.
