Volume 1: Mission in Danger Chapter 20 Foshan Chen

Wu Chengjian was half lying on the bed. If he hurried to get up, he would be distracted. He simply stayed still and said lazily, "It turned out to be Master Chen."
The person who came was Chen Tianyuan from Foshan who was supporting Qiu Ling. He walked closer, and Wu Chengjian said with a smile: "I was drunk last night, and Qiu Ling brought me here because of her old relationship with Sanniang. Whether you believe it or not, although I slept in her bed, we didn't do anything last night."
Chen Tianyuan came over and half-leaned on the bed, his face full of regret, and said, "That's such a pity. I was counting on you to teach her a few tricks, so that I can enjoy it later."
Wu Chengjian stared at his peach blossom eyes for a long while, and seeing that there was indeed no annoyance in his eyes, he smiled and said, "Don't even mention teaching her. If Young Master Chen is willing, I can teach you some other time."
Chen Tianyuan laughed and said, "That's great. I have admired the Third Young Master since I was a child. We have known each other for many years but have never been close. It is our fate that the Third Young Master can sleep with Qiu Ling today."
After hearing this, Wu Chengjian said with disgust, "Don't! You make me sound so old. You are at most two or three years younger than me. What do you mean you have admired me since childhood?"
Chen Tianyuan laughed and said, "When I was seventeen, I first visited Baietan. I didn't know the depths of the lake. I relied on my family's money and didn't know how high the sky was. I was severely beaten by you, Third Young Master. Do you remember?"
Wu Chengjian had dealt with many people openly and secretly every year, so it was impossible for him to remember so many. But when he mentioned it, he vaguely remembered that this incident really happened. At that time, Chen Tianyuan was young and arrogant, and dared to show off his wealth and power in Baietan. As a result, Wu Chengjian used a little trick to hit him with a club, which made the young and inexperienced Chen Tianyuan confused and became the big joke of Baietan that month.
Wu Chengjian was also on guard against his revenge. After all, the Chen family in Foshan was also a wealthy family in Guangzhou and Foshan. They had already arranged how to turn things around, how to turn the enemy around, and how to reconcile . Unexpectedly, Chen Tianyuan did not react at all after that. He just suddenly became honest. Over time, Wu Chengjian forgot about it.
Chen Tianyuan said: "After that..."
Wu Chengjian asked, "You just hold a grudge against me?"
Chen Tianyuan laughed and said, "Haha, I was embarrassed by Brother Wu at that time. I was very angry at first, but I was stupid at that time. I didn't know who did it. It wasn't until the next day when someone pointed it out to me that I came to my senses. That person told me in detail how you played tricks on me. I thought about it carefully and realized that there are people in the world who do things and play tricks on others in this way. It really amazed me. From then on, I have been keeping an eye on you, Third Young Master, and have been watching how you behave and act. Within three months, my father said that I had improved, and within a year, my father said that I had made progress. Hehe."
Wu Chengjian smiled and said, "I know that there are a lot of women in Shenxianzhou who are watching me from behind, but I didn't expect that there are men among them. But according to what you said, I am your mentor, so why did you come to provoke me again?"
Chen Tianyuan smiled and said, "I have been learning from you for two years. I felt that I had mastered your skills, so I wanted to give it a try. In the end, I only succeeded in the first step. Then the Third Young Master reacted and neutralized all my moves without making a sound. He also beat me up in return. From then on, I knew that my ability was far from that of the Third Young Master. I had better just follow behind and continue to learn."
Wu Chengjian smiled and said, "It's been two or three years since then. I guess you've completed your apprenticeship now. Do you want to give me a try again?"
"How could that be possible!" Chen Tianyuan said with a smile, "Since then, I have sincerely submitted to the Third Young Master and no longer have the slightest desire to compete with you. If you are willing to take me out to play, it will be the greatest honor for me, Foshan Chen."
"Your brother has already called him out, how can I not play with you?" Wu Chengjian said with a smile: "But it seems that you have really completed your apprenticeship. Usually when I smile like this, I want to make others lose their guard. When he lets down his guard, I will give him a hard blow to make it a conclusion."
Chen Tianyuan laughed and said, "How could that be possible? How could that be possible! I learned the Baihua business by watching my brother follow his steps. My brother is not only my master, but also my guide. If my brother is only two or three years older than me, Tianyuan, I should have offered a toast to him as a token of respect to his teacher."
The two of them laughed so hard that they both got up from the bed. Qiu Ling also came in with a smile and served them some wine.
Chen Tianyuan raised his glass and said, "Then when I go out in the world, I can say that I am the younger brother of Young Master Yihe."
Wu Chengjian held the cup without moving: "Our Wu family's business is not going well recently."
Chen Tianyuan smiled and said, "I don't think that little thing in Huizhou will be difficult for my brother."
When Wu Chengjian heard this, his eyes flickered, but he still smiled: "So even you know about it."
Chen Tianyuan said, "I'm not the first one to know about this in the Immortal Continent. It was Cai Laoer who probably had some information with Shen Xiaoying. Shen Xiaoying is also very narrow-minded. She doesn't treat Third Sister well in public or in private. Just look at the posture of Shen Xiaoying's buttocks. Isn't it clear what kind of pants Cai Laoer is wearing? If you follow the clues and ask around, you will know what happened in Huizhou."
Wu Chengjian asked, "Now that you know, are you still willing to call me brother?"
Chen Tianyuan smiled and said, "Others may not understand my brother, but I, Chen Tianyuan, have been following my brother for four or five years. Just by looking at how my brother is still at ease in the Immortal Continent, I know that my brother has already made plans for those little things."
Wu Chengjian laughed loudly, then raised his glass, clinked it with Chen Tianyuan's, and they both drank it together.
Qiu Ling filled their glasses again. Chen Tianyuan said, "I think my brother has taken care of all the big things. Is there anything small that I can help you with?"
Wu Chengjian's eyes flickered again, and he asked, "Do you have any connections in Huizhou?"
"Brother, do you want me to help you retrieve that batch of tea?"
"That's not necessary for you." Wu Chengjian said with a smile, "I haven't checked the details of the tea theft this time, but the tea was lost in Huizhou, so the Jieshi general cannot be separated from the responsibility. This man took the money and didn't do the job, and he also ruined the people. This is not only against the rules of the underworld, but also against the rules of the officialdom. I want to get rid of him."
Qiu Ling was secretly shocked when she heard this. The general was a second-rank military officer. Getting rid of a general? This was a small matter?
Chen Tianyuan was also stunned and couldn't respond for a moment.
Wu Chengjian smiled and said, "Then just pretend I didn't say anything."
Chen Tianyuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Since I have spoken, how can I ask you to take it back? Foshan Chen cannot do the first thing you asked me to do, and I will be embarrassed to call the Third Master Yihe my brother in the future."
Wu Chengjian asked, "Is there a way?"
Chen Tianyuan said, "To get rid of a town's general is no small matter. It's not enough to have money. You also need to have power, connections, and leverage. Anyway, few of those officials are clean. If you are not in a hurry, we can slowly find leverage ."
Wu Chengjian smiled and said, "No hurry, this mess in Guangzhou will be enough for me to deal with until after the autumn harvest."
"Then we can slowly look for evidence. After all, few officials are clean." Chen Tianyuan said, "As for connections, I can find them. But it's not easy to get such a big situation. If we can't make the official situation unfavorable to the Jieshi general, those who protect him will not abandon him, and those who hate him will not attack him."
Wu Chengjian stood up and said, "After the autumn harvest, the situation will be settled." He flicked the wine glass and said, "We will drink this glass of wine after the Jieshi general's concubine is sent to Shenxianzhou. At that time, we will burn yellow paper and cut off the chicken's head to become true sworn brothers."
After saying that, he left and called to Wu Qi who just came back: "Go back."
 
Qiu Ling leaned over and asked in a low voice: "The most urgent thing for the Wu family now is that batch of tea, right? Why didn't he ask you to help find the tea, but wanted to take that general? How can we touch a second-rank general?"
"According to common sense, of course we have to solve the current issue first, and then we can reward and repay favors, eliminate rebellion and take revenge. Revenge should be the last thing." Chen Tianyuan looked at the full bottle of wine: "Now everyone in Xiguan thinks that the Wu family is in big trouble, but he doesn't talk about this matter, but tells me about the final revenge. He wants to tell us that he doesn't care about the current issue. Not only does he not care about it, but he also wants to tell me that as long as he wants, he can gain the officialdom that can decide the life and death of a town general."
"You're just bragging." Qiu Ling couldn't help but sneer, "You're just bluffing."
"But what if he really did it?" Chen Tianyuan couldn't help but think of the two times he was beaten by Wu Chengjian. "If he really did it, then I, Foshan Chen, will really respect him."
"You are addicted to cleaning him up." Qiu Ling smiled charmingly and leaned close to Chen Tianyuan's ear and said, "If that's the case, then I will follow him..."
The following words were so low that it was hard to hear clearly, but Chen Tianyuan began to tremble all over.
 
Wu Chengjian took the boat back to the Huacha. On the boat, Master Chuan Longci replied about the arrangements for the birthday banquet. Basically, everything was ready, except for some invitations that had not been sent out. Wu Chengjian asked which invitations they were.
Master Chuan Longci said, "I have informed Miss Chunrui of the list of guests to be invited to the banquet. Miss Chunrui went to ask the eldest young mistress, and the eldest young mistress went to ask the second young master. The second young master has already drawn up a list. I showed it to the second uncle and it is OK. It has been sent out. As for the outsiders, I have already drawn up the list myself. The third young master will take a look to see if there is anything missing."
Wu Chengjian glanced at the list on the boat and pointed at a few people: "No need to invite these people." He pointed at a few more people: "Give me the invitations for these people, I will invite them personally."
The small boat approached the Huacha, but Chuan Longci did not get on it and just took the small boat back to the shore.
