Han Mo was puzzled in his heart, the door of the mourning hall had been pushed open, and then he heard the sound of footsteps, it seemed that someone had entered the mourning hall, Han Mo was behind the white curtain of the mourning hall, and he couldn't see who came in for a while, so he quietly searched for it, and actually found a gap, which was where the two white curtains met, just behind the spirit card, Han Mo bowed slightly, looked out through that little gap, and saw a person in official uniform entering the mourning hall, it was Yang Qing, the county guard of the East China Sea.

Han Mo suddenly frowned.

That Yang Qing entered the mourning hall, looked around, put his hands behind his back, but lowered his head, as if he was thoughtful, and soon Han Mo heard a sound of footsteps again, and a domestic servant helped the old man who thought he was old to come in, it was Han Tianci, the great elder of the Han clan.

As soon as Han Tianci entered the door, Yang Qing had already stepped forward, hugged him, and said in a loud voice: "Great Elder, Yang Qing came late at night, please bear with me!" ”

Han Mo suddenly became even more suspicious, although Han Tianci had a lot of prestige and status among the Han clan, but Yang Qing was also a county magistrate, and his status was extremely high, it was understandable that he was respectful to the two sect masters, but he was also so respectful to an elder, but it was really a little incomprehensible.

Seeing that Yang Qing was so respectful, Han Tianci was also very useful, and said with a smile: "Lord Yang, why don't you notify you in advance, we can also go and greet you!" ”

Yang Qing said with a smile: "Come over in the middle of the night, it's already very rude, where do you dare to alarm, I just wanted to come over to Zhuxiang, I didn't want them to alarm the Great Elder, damn it......!" ”

Han Tianci turned his head to the servant beside him and said, "Go and call the fourth young master over, and say that Lord Yang will come to worship the spirit ...... again!" ”

The servant hadn't agreed yet, and Yang Qing had already said, "There's no need, there's no need to alarm the fourth son." Since the death of the great suzerain, the eldest lord has been in Beijing for state affairs as a priority, and he cannot return, and the second lord ...... Alas, the fourth young master is standing alone here, he is physically and mentally exhausted, so late at night, let him rest ......! ”

When Han Mo heard it in the back, his heart was even more uncomfortable.

None of the immediate family members in the clan are there, only Han Yuan is supporting the East China Sea, he is not only physically tired, but also has to accept the blows of the continuous death of his grandfather and father, at this time, Han Yuan must be at the lowest point in his life and the most helpless.

The Great Elder Han Tianci also sighed, but Yang Qing had already walked to the spiritual seat, and there were already servants who came to serve Yang Qing and saluted the incense, Yang Qing bowed a few times, and then turned around and sighed: "Yang Qing has been in the East China Sea for several years, but he has been taken care of by the Great Sect Master everywhere, every time he thinks about it, he can't sleep at night, these days, he has never slept peacefully." He walked over and said with a wry smile: "Tonight is full of wind and rain, and I have no intention of sleeping, I still want to come to the great sect master to have a stick of incense and talk about my heart!" ”

Han Tianci said: "Lord Yang is affectionate and righteous, and has the style of an ancient sage!" But he thought in his heart: "You are so attentive, I am afraid that I see that my Han clan is now infinitely beautiful, and I am worried that my official position will not be guaranteed, so it will be like this!" ”

Han Mo felt more and more strange behind the mourning hall, obedient and listening, and suddenly heard Yang Qing's words insincerely, he also thought that Yang Qing might be trying to curry favor with the Han family, but it was always a little weird to be so attentive on a stormy night.

Yang Qing's voice had already come: "The Great Elder is laughing, just grateful for the virtue of the Great Sect Master, where can he be called the style of the ancient sage." Then he praised: "The Great Elder is broad-minded, and his prestige among the Han people is rarely matched, such a long night, but here he is the Great Sect Master's Spirit, this is the real Gu Xian Feng!" ”

This Han Tianci stroked his long beard, and Yang Qing's praise really made him very proud, but Yang Qing had already helped him sit down on the big chair in the mourning hall.

Han Tianci had already instructed: "Don't come to tea yet!" ”

The servant hurriedly agreed, and was about to go down, Yang Qing had already waved his hand and said, "There is no need to be so polite...... Great Elder, if you are not strange, I would like to sit down with you and chat a few words, you see ......! ”

"Be with you!" Han Tianci immediately said and instructed the servant: "You go down first, the old man wants to talk to Lord Yang, and you can't come in without my instructions!" ”

The servant agreed, so he went down and closed the door with his hand, but Yang Qing got up, walked to the door, and latched the door.

Han Tianci caught a glimpse, but he didn't say anything.

Han Mo saw clearly behind the mourning hall, and when he saw what Yang Qing had done, he sneered in his heart, the so-called three treasures hall for nothing, this Yang Qing came in the middle of the night in the name of worshipping the spirit, but he was afraid that he had another plan.

Yang Qing closed the door and looked around, the mourning hall was deserted, like clouds, with white flags in rows, he carefully closed a few windows, and walked to the back of the mourning hall, Han Mo suddenly clenched his fists, fortunately, Yang Qing did not really go around to the back of the mourning hall, and he naturally could not have thought that in this place where the coffin was parked, there would be people hiding here.

After making sure that there was no one around, Yang Qing breathed a sigh of relief, walked over lightly, and chuckled: "It's windy at night, please speak to the Great Elder, this door and window must be closed tightly, but you can't let the Great Elder suffer from the cold." ”

Han Tianci stroked his beard and smiled: "Although the old man is old, he is still safe and healthy......!" ”

Yang Qing sat down on the chair beside Han Tianci and sighed lightly: "Don't hide it from the Great Elder, the lower officials have wanted to visit your mansion several times these days, but it's just ...... When it is very bad, I am afraid that I will be known and cause gossip ......! ”

He claimed to be a subordinate official, but it made Han Mo's heart tighten, and Han Tianci seemed to be a little surprised, and hurriedly said: "Lord Yang, the old man is a grass people, how dare you mess with Lord Yang's title......!" ”

Yang Qing said solemnly: "Great Elder, without the support of the Han family, how could I, Yang Qing, have today?" In front of the Great Elder, the junior claims to be a subordinate official, which is absolutely wrong! ”

Han Tianci stroked his beard and said: "Lord Yang, there is no one around at this moment, what do you have to say, even if it comes out of your mouth and into my ears, no third person will know about ......it!" ”

Han Mo sneered in his heart: "If you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you don't do it." The two of you whispered here that no one knew, but with the blessing of my grandfather, I was here to hear what you said. ”

One is the county guard of Donghai County, and the other is the great elder of the Han clan, in the mourning hall of the deceased great sect master, what good things can be discussed when the doors and windows are closed.

……

Yang Qing smiled slightly when he heard Han Tianci say this.

Han Tianci is also the great elder of the Han clan, and he has also been an official in the court for many years, although he has retired, but after all, he is an old fritter who has been in the officialdom for many years, and those treacherous thoughts are not inferior to others.

He came here tonight, and with this kind of action, Han Tianci naturally saw that something was wrong.

Han Tianci leaned back in the chair, squinting his eyes slightly, as if waiting for Yang Qing to speak, Yang Qing flicked his clothes lightly, and then said softly: "Great Elder, as far as the lower officials know, the Fifth Young Master has opened the sea trade, and every time he travels by sea, there are hundreds of thousands of silver gains, but he doesn't know if it's true or not?" ”

Han Tianci stroked his beard and said: "How much silver can be earned, the old man really doesn't know, but it's just ...... There are always a lot of them. After a pause, he said: "This time Xiao Wu went to sea and brought three warships, the old man heard that the three warships were built secretly, but the silver cost each warship ...... Hehe, that's not a small amount! ”

Yang Qing sighed: "As the county guard of the East China Sea, Xia Guan manages the Li people, how can I not know the income of the fifth young master at all?" ”

Han Tianci frowned and said, "Why is Lord Yang so interested in Xiao Wu's trade? ”

Yang Qing shook his head and said, "It's not that the lower officials are interested in trade. It's just that I heard a few days ago that the Great Elder took a fancy to a piece of land with excellent feng shui and wanted to build a new house there, but because of the lack of silver, he put it on hold and ......! ”

Han Tianci suddenly lowered his face and said unhappily: "Lord Yang, where did you know about this?" The old man didn't reveal this to outsiders! ”

Yang Qing shook his head and said, "Great Elder, don't be angry, someone casually mentioned it to the lower officials, but the lower officials paid attention. What kind of person is the Great Elder, it is natural for him to want to build a house to live in his old age, but ...... The great elder of the Han clan was dignified, but he couldn't get what he wanted because of the silver, and when the lower officials heard about it, they were really ...... Alas, it's very sad! ”

"What exactly does Lord Yang want to say?" Han Tianci frowned.

Yang Qing finally said: "Open the skylight and say something bright, Great Elder, the lower official is not worth it for you." You are also the descendant of the King of the East China Sea, Tianya Gong, and this great East China Sea naturally has your share, why does the sea trade make the fifth young master earn a lot of money, but you have to worry about even a new house? ”

Han Tianci said in a deep voice: "Lord Yang, it seems that your worship today is fake, and it is true that you came to provoke the relationship between my Han clan." He stood up suddenly and said in a cold voice: "Who are you instructed to sow discord?" Don't you know that since the king of the East China Sea, my Korean people have been united and have never had civil strife...... Lord Yang, the old man is the great elder of the Han clan, but you said such a thing to the old man in the mourning hall of the great sect master, is it a bit excessive? He raised his hand, "Lord Yang, please leave first, the old man should not have heard...... If these words are heard by others, of course, you, Lord Yang, will not be able to stay in the East China Sea, and I, Han Tianci, will probably be misunderstood...... ”

Yang Qing sneered: "Great Elder, the lower officials came here today, and they are bent on planning for the Great Elder. In the hearts of the lower officials, the Great Elder is broad-minded and kind, so he wants to help the Great Elder achieve great things...... I thought that the Great Elder was a person who was humble and accepting advice, but I didn't expect it...... Alas, Great Elder, forgive your last words for doing this...... It's really confusing......! With that, he got up and strode towards the door, as if he really wanted to leave.

Han Tianci sat down slowly, watched Yang Qing leave quickly, and saw that he was about to walk to the gate, but raised his hand and shouted: "Lord Yang, the old man wants to know, how confused I am!" ”

A hint of a smile crossed the corner of Yang Qing's mouth, and Han Mo behind the mourning hall also crossed the corner of his mouth with a sneer, and said secretly in his heart: "Great Elder, Great Elder, if you let him go, he is the only one who is unlucky, and if you leave him, that is to leave a disaster, as long as it is slightly unfavorable to the Han clan, even if you are the Great Elder, I, Han Mo, will not let it go!" ”
