CHAPTER 523 - Introduction
Persuasion and Refusal
This was a meeting between two generations. In the beginning, they avoided each other. Then, they became extremely excited, and then, they became extremely disappointed. Now, everyone was finally happy.
Qin Changxing and Qin Sheng, the two men of the Qin Family, had completed the inheritance and handover. Qin Changxing had made everything clear. He could not leave Mount Wutai at the moment, but it did not mean that he would not go back in the future. Qin Sheng also got a satisfactory answer. That was, this Eldest Uncle would always be behind the Qin Family. It was just that he needed to face and deal with these difficulties now.
After coming out of the meditation room where his Eldest Uncle lived, Qin Sheng looked much better than before. Qin Changxing stood at the door and watched him leave. Qin Ran was still waiting in the yard. Qin Sheng walked to the center of the yard and said to Qin Ran, "Sister, let's go."
Qin Ran did not ask him what his Eldest Uncle had said to her. She just looked back at him and wanted to say goodbye to him. However, she was disappointed and could only leave with Qin Sheng.
Outside the yard, Chang Baji and the others were waiting there. When Qin Sheng and Qin Ran saw them, they said directly, "Go back to Beijing."
Chang Baji and the others had no objection. They took action in a hurry. Although they did not know what the process was, the Eldest Uncle of the Qin Family did not come out with them. Obviously, he had refused Qin Ran and Qin Sheng. This made the situation of the Qin Family not change at all. They were also worried.
When the Qin Family's motorcade left Wutai Mountain and returned to Beijing, an off-road vehicle that had been secretly watching them also returned to Beijing. However, they did not see the man they expected, so they immediately reported the result to their master.
On the way back to Beijing, Qin Ran finally could not help but ask, "Qin Sheng, what did Eldest Uncle talk to you about?"
"Sister, actually nothing. Eldest Uncle just told me about his difficulties. He said that he had been away from Beijing for more than 20 years. If he suddenly went back at this time, not only would he not be able to help, but he would also cause trouble for the Qin Family. So he could not go back." Qin Sheng said selectively. Naturally, he would not tell Qin Ran everything.
Qin Ran said impatiently, "I think he just doesn't want to go back and deal with these troubles. Forget it. If he doesn't want to go back, then he won't go back. After all, he has been away for so many years.
Qin Ran was fine. She didn't complain too much. She was just a little disappointed, but she was still willing to face the upcoming difficulties positively. She didn't give up because of her uncle's rejection.
Qin Sheng continued, "Sister, you have to understand Eldest Uncle. Maybe it's just that it's not the right time yet. However, although Eldest Uncle is unwilling to go back, he has given us an important resource. Maybe it can help us turn the situation around."
Qin Ran asked curiously, "What resources?"
"The guardian clans. Uncle gave me the contact information of three guardian clans." This time, Qin Sheng did not hide anything and said straightforwardly.
Qin Ran said in shock, "Our Qin Clan actually has three guardian clans? It seems that even the old man doesn't know of their existence. How did Uncle know of their existence? How did he even have their contact information? "
Qin Ran was clearly in disbelief. She never thought that there would be a glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel. Although she had failed to convince her uncle to return to the capital, he had given them the three guardian clans' contact details. This was equivalent to handing the guardian clans over to them. As for how they would be used in the future, that was up to them.
Qin Sheng guessed, "I don't know either. Maybe it's a foreshadowing left by my grandfather." He could only guess in this way. Otherwise, why did the old man not know and only Eldest Uncle knew? Hence, this further confirmed his judgment. That was, it was not that Eldest Uncle did not want to come back. It was just that he couldn't come back at this stage.
Qin Ran thought about it and agreed. It seemed that this was the only reasonable explanation. Otherwise, why did Eldest Uncle know? However, her focus now was not on this. What she was concerned about now was who the three guardian clans were and how they would use the guardian clans to help the Qin Clan.
Hence, Qin Ran couldn't wait to ask, "Qin Sheng, what are you going to do? When will you contact them?"
Qin Sheng thought for a while and said, "We'll talk about it when we get back."
When they left Beijing, there was a storm, lightning, and thunder. But when they went back from Mount Wutai, it was sunny and cloudless. It seemed to be a good omen for the Qin Family. They hoped that the Qin Family could go from the storm to the sunny and sunny day smoothly.
When Qin Sheng and Qin Ran rushed back from Mount Wutai, Zhao Anzhi, who was far away in Beijing, was called back to the Zhao Clan by her brother. In this special period, the Zhao Clan did not avoid arousing suspicion, which meant that they still had some confidence. However, Zhao Anzhi's brother did not want to help the Qin Clan and Zhao Anzhi get through this difficult time. Instead, he wanted to persuade Zhao Anzhi to stay away from trouble and get involved in this muddy water.
Zhao Anzhi's brother was called Zhao Zhenjun. This man, who used to be a governor of a border region, had long since retired. He did not even strive to go to the second line to play his remaining role. This had a lot to do with his character. He did not have much ambition. If he really had that kind of ambition, it was not impossible for him to go further back then. He did not go to the second line because he took the initiative to keep a low profile.
What would Zhao Zhenjun think when such a big thing happened to the Qin Clan? No matter what, Zhao Anzhi was his biological sister. Although this biological sister was the daughter-in-law of the Qin Clan, she was still a woman of the Zhao Clan after all. Moreover, the relationship between Zhao Anzhi and the Qin Clan was relatively special.
Now, Zhao Anzhi took the initiative to come back from Canada to help the Qin Clan. Now, she became the pillar of the Qin Clan, which made Zhao Zhenjun very worried. On the one hand, he was worried about the safety of Zhao Anzhi and his niece. After all, the opponent of the Qin Clan was too strong. On the other hand, he was worried that the Zhao Clan would be innocently implicated. That was why they met today.
Since Zhao Anzhi came back, she was almost always busy with the affairs of the Qin Clan. Therefore, she rarely visited the Zhao Clan. She only called them occasionally. This was also something that Zhao Zhenjun was not very satisfied with. In these years, he had not treated the mother and daughter badly.
Therefore, after Zhao Anzhi came back today, Zhao Zhenjun did not look good, which made Zhao Anzhi a little unhappy. I didn't come back to be bullied. Moreover, he was also an old man in his fifties or sixties.
Although Zhao Anzhi looked unhappy, he was her brother after all, so she spoke politely, "Brother, if you have something to say, just say it. We are siblings. There is no such estrangement between us."
Hearing this, Zhao Zhenjun, who had a head full of white hair, replied bluntly, "It's not a big deal. I just want to discuss something with you. It is also for the sake of you and your daughter."
"What is it?" Zhao Anzhi seemed to have already guessed what this stubborn brother wanted to say. She asked with a faint smile.
Zhao Zhenjun narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment before he slowly said, "Anzhi, take Yaya back to Canada. It is safer there than in China, and it is more suitable for you and your daughter. Now Beijing is already a troublesome place. It is too dangerous for you and your daughter to stay here. Go back."
After hearing this, Zhao Anzhi burst into laughter and stared at her brother with a puzzled look. Zhao Zhenjun was a little annoyed by Zhao Anzhi's laughter and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"Brother, I am not laughing at anything. I am just laughing at your inexplicable words. How can Beijing be a troublesome place? How can it be dangerous for us to stay in China? This is my hometown," Zhao Anzhi said as if she was joking.
Zhao Zhenjun said angrily, "Do you really not understand what I am talking about, or are you playing dumb? Such a big thing happened to the Qin Family. Now everyone is watching the Qin Family. Isn't it dangerous for you to stay in the Qin Family? Now Qin Changan is in trouble. Qin Changxing, that coward, is far away in Mount Wutai and is useless. You are the only woman left to support the Qin Family. If they don't target you, who else will they target? "
Zhao Anzhi already knew what her brother wanted to say, but she deliberately played dumb. At this time, she replied seriously, "Brother, although something happened to the Qin Family, it has not collapsed yet. There is not only me in the Qin Family, but also Qin Ran and Qin Sheng. It will not be so easily defeated."
"Are you kidding? They are just children. What can they do? The Qin Family depends on you now. How can you face those enemies? "Zhao Zhenjun retorted.
Zhao Anzhi said calmly, "Brother, I know you are doing this for my own good. But how can I leave the Qin Family at this time? If I really leave, how can I face everyone in the Qin Family? No matter what, I am still the daughter-in-law of the Qin Family. Since the man of the Qin Family is not here, let me, the woman, take his place. "
"You? Stop daydreaming. Don't you know the situation of the Qin Family?" Zhao Zhenjun sneered.
Zhao Anzhi did not want to ask the Zhao Family for help. It was fine if the Zhao Family did not help her. Now they poured cold water on her, which made her very unhappy. She knew her brother's temper very well. She said directly, "Brother, I think you are pretending to care about us. You are really afraid of getting the Zhao Family into trouble."
"Zhao Anzhi, what do you mean? My kindness is bad. I am your brother. So what if I care about you? Should I watch you and your mother get into trouble? "Zhao Zhenjun was so angry that he stood up directly.
Zhao Anzhi did not intend to give in. She smiled and stood up, saying, "Brother, thank you for caring about us. Since I married into the Qin Family, I am a woman of the Qin Family. If something happens to the Qin Family, I am responsible. I will not leave and I can't leave. Brother, don't worry. I will not get the Zhao Family into trouble."
"Zhao Anzhi, why are you so stubborn? I am doing this for your own good," Zhao Zhenjun shouted helplessly.
Zhao Anzhi chuckled and said, "I know. Thank you, brother. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Zhao Zhenjun was still thinking about how to continue to persuade Zhao Anzhi. But at this time, Zhao Anzhi had already stood up and left. She did not want to continue to stay here. She had already expected such a situation. It was not her brother who said this. Her best friends also called her to persuade her. But she still insisted on her decision and would not regret it.
