Chapter 245 There are Assassins!
"Brother Jiang, your home is in Lifeng Town?"
After drinking for three rounds, the three of them chatted.
"The Jiang family in the south of Lifeng Town."
Jiang Li spoke, and when he mentioned his family, a bitter look appeared on his face.
"It bothers me when it comes to my family. My brothers seem to be avoiding me recently."
"I think this matter is related to our family's Counselor Liu. He claims to be a man of great talent and has repeatedly come up with good ideas to help my family prosper and become one of the four major families in Li Feng Town. I usually treat him very much. Respect. But for some reason, after I came back this time, he seemed to have a problem with me and often avoided discussing things with me."
Speaking of this, Jiang Li became a little angry. He took a swig of wine, then waved his hand and continued:
"Never mind this, let's get together as brothers today. Let's not talk about these troublesome things and have a good drink."
However, Jiang Li's words attracted the attention of Lin Xiaofan and Jian Bai.
Perhaps, the Jiang family has received invitations from the Chen family, Zhao family and other families and is making a decision.
Jiang Li has a good relationship with them and his personality, so he may help Lin Xiaofan unconditionally. If not, there might be a quarrel with other members of the family. Therefore, counselor Liu avoided discussing matters with him at all times.
Lin Xiaofan asked:
"Brother Jiang, can you tell me in detail? Especially about the banquet in a few days."
If the Jiang family's decision could be known in advance, they would be able to prepare early.
banquet?
Jiang Li frowned when he heard this.
Isn't it just a banquet to celebrate Lin Xiaofan? What's there to say?
But soon, he thought of what Counselor Liu said in the meeting hall that day.
"Brother Lin, from what you put it, this matter is really strange."
Jiang Li said, falling into memories, and slowly spoke:
"That day, the family received the invitation to the banquet, and we went together to discuss the matter. Originally, for this kind of matter, we only needed to determine the candidates. But Counselor Liu said that he felt that the matter was not as simple as it appeared. As for the reason , but he couldn’t tell.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiaofan and Jian Bai were both shocked.
This counselor Liu could find something wrong with just an invitation? It seems not easy to help the Jiang family become one of the four major families in these years.
Lin Xiaofan and Jian Bai looked at each other, and then the latter slowly said:
"Brother Jiang, you may not know something. This banquet is actually an assassination operation carried out by the Chen family, Shen family, and Qing family in the capital to assassinate Brother Lin."
Jiang Li was dumbfounded when he heard this.
At this celebration banquet, there was actually a family that wanted to kill Lin Xiaofan, and it was one of the three major families in the capital?
The three major families jointly assassinated him, so why did Lin Xiaofan still attend the banquet?
In other words, why didn't you cancel the banquet even though you knew this?
"This...Brother Jianbai, don't make fun of me."
"Brother Jiang, it's about Brother Lin's life and death, how can I joke?"
Jian Bai looked serious and immediately explained:
"But you don't have to worry too much. This banquet is actually a conspiracy set up by Brother Lin and the Zhao family in the capital to lure people from the three families out and catch them all. I am here to protect Brother Lin's safety. ."
"That's it. My brother and Counselor Liu really hid it from me. Brother Lin, don't worry, even if they don't let me go, I will follow you secretly to protect your safety!"
Jiang Li immediately stated his position.
"Brother Jiang, don't worry too much about me. Since I'm going to the banquet, I must be somewhat sure. But don't let this matter affect your relationship with the family."
Lin Xiaofan said with some relief.
The Jiang family has only gained momentum in recent years, and its foundation is still shallow. Apart from Jiang Li, there are no experts in the family. Even if you go against him, it won't pose any threat to him.
"Brother Lin, what are you talking about? As long as I, Jiang Li, am here, the Jiang family will never send anyone to deal with you!"
Jiang Li patted his chest and promised.
"Brother Jiang, let's do this to you!"
Jian Bai raised the wine bowl, his face already turning red.
……
In Zhao Shan's room, a man and a woman sat opposite each other.
The man was dressed in black, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a cold face. It was Zhao Chen who had been away for many days.
"Brother Chen, how are you handling the matter in Linyuan?"
Zhao Shan expressed concern.
"Everything that needs to be solved has been solved. What about your side? Is there any action from the Chen family?"
When mentioning this matter, Zhao Chen's eyes showed a bit of surprise. It seemed that the matter was handled well.
"The Chen family is very honest and has not shown up for so many days. But today, Jian Bai suddenly came and brought several personal guards with him."
Zhao Shan shook her head slightly.
"Jian Bai, he came in person? And he brought several personal guards with him?"
When Zhao Chen heard this, instead of being happy, his eyebrows knitted together.
He knew Jian Bai's strength, and he was not far behind him.
Coupled with a few elite members of the Qingzhou Army, it would be bad if the Chen family were scared away.
"Brother Chen, what do you think should be done about this matter?"
Zhao Shan also had a headache. The moment she saw Jian Bai, she discovered this problem.
If the Chen family hadn't taken action at this banquet, they wouldn't have been able to spend time here.
"Why don't we just bring Counselor Lin and Guan Fengxue back to the capital."
After Zhao Chen thought for a while, he spoke.
If Lin Xiaofan and Guan Fengxue were allowed to stay in Qingzhou, it would probably be a disaster.
"This is indeed the best way, but I'm afraid that Counselor Lin won't be willing to do it."
Zhao Shan sighed.
According to what she knew about Lin Xiaofan, this man had great ambitions and would never want to live in the Zhao family.
Moreover, Lin Xiaofan’s foundation is all within Qingzhou, and it is impossible to take it all away.
"How about we take Guan Fengxue back? After all, the Chen family mainly wants to take action against Guan Fengxue. As long as we take him away, Lin Xiaofan's pressure will be much less."
Zhao Chen continued to preach. In his opinion, the cause of everything is Wu Fengxue.
"This will not work. Even if Guan Fengxue is not here, the Chen family will still take action against Brother Lin, and there will be no shortage of manpower."
Zhao Shan shook her head and rejected it, then explained:
"A few months ago, the Chen family had offended Brother Lin to death. And Brother Lin is only seventeen years old. He has great talents and his power is constantly expanding. His future is unlimited. Think about it, with the temperament of the Chen family , will it allow him to continue to grow?"
Zhao Chen nodded slightly when he heard this.
The pressure Lin Xiaofan puts on the Chen family is definitely no less than that of Wu Fengxue.
After all this calculation, if the Chen family were to choose someone to assassinate, there is a high probability that they would choose Lin Xiaofan.
"Moreover, the refined salt that Brother Lin mentioned has been made. It is several times better than the previous fine salt, and the cost is also low. Relying on this, we can definitely win the refined salt market."
Zhao Shan rummaged through and found a small spoonful of refined salt, which she had left here.
Looking at the small grains of salt in front of him as white as snow, Zhao Chen's eyes moved.
Just looking at the appearance, it is indeed much better than the fine salt on the market.
"But when you said that, I thought of an idea. Let's announce to the outside world that Brother Lin will come back to the capital with us after this trip. If they believe it, there is a high probability that they will attack on the day of the banquet."
An idea flashed in Zhao Shan's mind and she spoke.
"This move works!"
Zhao Chen nodded slightly. Suddenly, his expression changed and he turned to look out the window.
"Who!"
