Chapter 127: The capable are above
The second night, seven o'clock came, and Hongmen's annual plum appreciation season came.
Because Ye Chutian didn't know the rules of entering Meihua Valley, he first drove to Wei Wu's house, and then went to Meihua Valley in Yanque Lake in Nanjing with Wei Wu and his son.
If it is during the daytime, other citizens or tourists will come here to watch plum blossoms. However, tonight, only the senior officials of Hongmen and Hongmen guards came in to enjoy it.
Ye Chutian and Wei Lixuan took the invitation post, went through layers of inspection, and smelled the fragrance of plum blossoms. Under the light of Plum Blossom Valley, plum blossoms of various colors appeared in front of Ye Chutian. When I looked at the large plum blossom forest, it was really endless.
This is a paradise for plum blossoms.
Wei Lixuan and Wei Lihui have obviously been here many times. They look at the plum blossoms in the plum blossom valley and feel very ordinary.
Ye Chutian followed Wei Wu's father and son through many plum blossom forests, came to the Yanque Lake in the middle of the Plum Blossom Valley, got on a boat, and went to the pavilion on the central island of Yanque Lake.
When they went up to the island, Ye Chutian saw Hong Qingkao, Ye Zinan, Wei Yuanpei, Helian Quanfa, and other Hongmen high-level officials coming. Ye Chutian and Wei Wu came to the pavilion. Among those Hongmen high-level officials, they found their own position and went straight to sit down.
" Lixuan, Lihui, come and sit down."
Ye Zinan called Wei Lihui and Wei Lixuan over.
Although the two have no specific positions in Hongmen, they have been in and out of Hongmen since childhood and have been loved by Ye Zinan.
Therefore, the two seem to have a low status in Hongmen.
When Ye Chutian looked forward, he found that Wei Yuanhong was also coming. However, he was injured the other day and didn't look better, and his face was still pale.
Originally, he was a patient and should not have to come to enjoy plums again. However, now Wei Yuanhong was pushed over by the seat, leaned against the wheelchair and rested with his eyes closed. He still didn't look better.
On the night of the Lantern Festival, Wei Yuanhong's left lung was injured and he suffered heavy internal bleeding. Now it's only a few days of rest. How can he get better?
Ye Chutian felt a little strange. Didn't they come to enjoy the plums?
Why is it on the gazebo on this island?
This island pavilion is surrounded by plum blossoms. Looking at the plum blossoms around Yanque Lake on the island, they can also see it clearly in the light.
This is much smaller than the main hall of Hongmen headquarters. There are not many people who can sit in it. A small number of Hongmen high-level officials still stand outside and whisper to discuss.
Outside the plum blossom valley of Yanque Lake,
Under the woods, there was a group of people hiding in it. The leader, not everyone else, was in the main hall of Hongmen. Xue Fa, who flattered Hong Qing, now hid in the jungle and looked at the pavilion on the island in the center of Swallow Lake, with his eyes flickering.
Those members held the sharp knife in their hands. In the cold light of the moonlight, they vaguely felt the cold light of the sharp knife. Xue Fa and those members did not move and had been hiding in it, as if they were waiting for something?
In the pavilion of Yanque Lake Island,
Hong Qingkao and other senior officials of Hongmen were drinking or whispering there, and Wei Yuanpei, who was sitting in his seat, suddenly stood up.
"Dragon head, I don't understand. My eldest brother is injured now and should stay in the room to rest. Why do you want him to come here to enjoy some flowers?"
"The plum blossoms here, year after year, we all want to vomit. I don't know what you mean by doing this?"
"Master Wei, take back what you just said. I don't blame you!"
Hong Qingqi said.
At this time, Ye Chutian and other high-level officials on the pavilion felt that the atmosphere inside was wrong, and Hong Qingqi's perpetual power began to force them.
However, at this time, Wei Yuanpei was not afraid, but said loudly.
"Dragon head, I need you to give me an explanation. My eldest brother has made so many contributions to Hongmen in his life, why do you want to do such a thing? Don't you think it's really chilling for Hongmen's meritorious officials?"
Wei Yuanpei asked in that questioning tone, which is completely different from his usual respectful attitude towards Hong Qingkao.
"Bunuch, are you questioning me?"
Hong Qingkao threw a wine glass to the ground and asked.
What is the king? The king can't be provoked!
"Guys, you have also seen that I don't disrespect the leader. However, now the leader treats my eldest brother like that, just hoping that he will give my eldest brother an explanation, but now he doesn't even say anything, but blames me. This leader's temper is really fucking big!"
Wei Yuanpei said strangely.
However, no high-level Hongmen below dared to speak out.
"Hong Qingkao, you didn't say it, but I know why you did that?"
"You did this just to see the three brothers of the Wei family, who are becoming more and more powerful in Hongmen. Therefore, you have to deliberately force us back, so that you can continue to be your gentleman and take the opportunity to destroy our Wei family.
"I don't need to say that you sent someone to kill my son at home that time; the second time, when I was in the suburbs, you still sent someone to kill him; at the Lantern Festival banquet, you sent someone to assassinate my eldest brother, because only you have the right to let those killers go in and out."
"I didn't expect you to pretend to know nothing and let the guards below find a little murderer. Aren't you all the others?"
"Master Wei, I think you're drunk, so you don't have to talk nonsense."
Helian Zhengqing was the first to stand up and say.
"I'm not drunk, I'm very sober!"
"Isn't Hong Qingqi just trying to kill our Wei family?"
"Are you afraid that our Wei family will take your place?"
"It is said that the Wei family has a Hongmen jade pendant, and you didn't mean to let people spread it. At the banquet, you invited the prime minister and said that the Wei family wanted to replace the Hong family's position in Hongmen, and you didn't deliberately put a certain hat on the Wei family. However, our three brothers of the Wei family have never done that. Today, everything is forced by you!"
The atmosphere on the gazebo became cold, and many high-rise officials bowed their heads there, and even dared not breathe. Hong Qingqi, sitting in front of him, listened calmly. After drinking a glass of wine, he looked at him and said.
"Is there anything else?"
"Hong Qingkao, if you are not Hong Yitong's son, can you really sit in the position of leader with your ability?"
"I don't have to say anything about the fact that you slaughtered and framed your brothers for this position. However, you become the leader of Hongmen, ambitious and talented, and incapable, but you have to pretend that you can do everything.
"Hongmen was originally prosperous, but so many capable people were secretly killed, which led to this, not to mention me. Hongmen's income for many years has been used by you to spend a lot on useless car research. You have attacked the Black Dragon Club three times in a row. If you want to stay in Hongmen Spring and Autumn, every time it is a failure, which not only casualties, but also aggravates Hongmen's financial consumption.
"The welfare of Hongmen members has not changed, but is getting worse and worse. Those money has been ruined by you and used it in places that should not be used. Now no one inside or outside Hongmen feels that you are capable of staying in this position. Hongmen was not originally surnamed by the Hong family. He killed Hong Qingkao, a dog thief, and the capable person came first!"
