After sending Cheng Jiahui off, He Yiming hurriedly asked, "Father, will big brother really marry the Cheng family's daughter?"
He Quan Ming turned his head and looked at him with a smile that was not a smile. He said, "What, are you tempted? Do you want me to talk to the Cheng Family and let you take over for a day? I don't think the Cheng Family will object."
Indeed, even though He Yiming was the He family's eldest son and eldest grandson, the most famous person in the family was still He Yiming, who sent Xu Yucai flying with one palm strike.
At this moment, everyone in the outside world was optimistic about this fourteen-year-old cultivator at the peak of the seventh level of internal strength. Some people even said that in the future, he would definitely be the number one expert in Taicang County.
Therefore, if the He family made this request, the Cheng family would definitely ask for it.
He Yiming shivered and smiled bitterly, "Father, don't joke with me. My goal is to reach the peak of martial arts. Before that, I would never consider this matter."
He Quan Ming nodded slightly, "That's more like it. With your talent, your future is limitless, so don't be burdened by a family too early." He sighed, "In the past, your uncle was also like this, wholeheartedly pursuing martial arts. But his identity is different. As the He family's eldest son, he must bear the corresponding responsibility. Otherwise, I'm afraid he would have broken through the peak of the ninth level and become a tenth level internal strength cultivator like father. "
He Yiming and his brother looked at each other and mourned for their uncle for a moment.
He Quan Ming waved his hand, "I originally wanted to let you stay for a few more days, but since this has happened, we must immediately report back to the old man. You two pack up and come home with me first tomorrow. As for Yilong, let her and her mother be together for a few more days. "
He Yiming and his brother's faces flashed with a trace of disappointment. The family finally reunited with great difficulty, but they had to be separated early.
If it was said that they were curious about Cheng Jiahui's suggestion before, then now they were angry. But no one dared to go against their father. They looked at each other and helplessly agreed.
The father and son trio had just entered the inner hall, and before they could mention this matter to Lin Wenyu, two manor servants immediately rushed in like the wind and fire.
He Quan Ming frowned slightly and rebuked angrily, "What's going on? Is this a place you can come …" He suddenly stopped because he could see that one of the two was fluttering in the wind, and his clothing was different from the servants here.
Of course, the most important thing was that he had already recognized that this person was a steward of the main family.
The steward wiped the sweat off his forehead and hurriedly said, "Second Master, the Old Master ordered me to come. It's extremely urgent. Please bring the Third Young Master and the Sixth Young Master back quickly."
He Quan Ming and his son's faces changed at the same time. The so-called 'extremely urgent' meant that something big had happened in the family. That was why they used this secret language to communicate.
The three of them looked at each other and saw the coldness in each other's eyes. Even He Yiming felt a chill run down his spine.
The tragedy of the Cheng Fu was right in front of them. Up until now, even the culprits had not been found. But at this time, the main family issued an urgent summons. Even the slowest person would think that it was Pian Pian.
Although He Yiming knew that the culprits were passing by and had only acted on the spur of the moment after hearing about the thousand-year-old blood ginseng, no one could guarantee that they had already left. Since the Cheng Fu had served as an example, even if this group of culprits offended the He Family, it would not be a big deal.
He Quan Ming took a deep breath and asked, "What happened in the family? Was there an attack? "
The steward looked at He Quan Ming in surprise and said, "Second Master, everything in the family is fine. There are no outsiders causing trouble. As for what happened, the Old Master did not say in detail. He only ordered for you, the Third Young Master, and the Sixth Young Master to hurry back as soon as possible. "
He Quan Ming and the others were slightly relieved. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, we know. You go and rest first. Do not spread this matter, understand?"
The two servants bowed at the same time. They were deeply favored and trusted people in the family. They also understood the principle of monkeys scattering when the tree fell. Even if He Quan Ming did not remind them, they would definitely keep their mouths shut.
"Yixuan, Yiming, quickly pack your things. We will leave immediately." After He Quan Ming finished speaking, he quickly walked into the inner residence. He probably went to find Lin Wenyu to explain.
He Yiming and his brother naturally did not dare to be negligent. Although they did not know what happened in the main family, since it was extremely urgent, they were naturally anxious.
After tidying up the things in the room, they came to the main door. The servants had already prepared a horse for them. The family of three rode on horses and rushed to the main family.
Now, the county was filled with the Cheng Fu's spies. The He Family's hurried departure naturally could not be concealed from the Cheng Family. But whether it was Old Master Cheng or Cheng Jiahui, they all thought that they were going back to discuss He Yitian's marriage.
And Cheng Jiahui was even more grateful to He Quan Ming. As an uncle, he was so concerned about his nephew's marriage. He did not even want to rest for a moment. He was really a warm-hearted person.
※ ※ ※
He Yiming and the other two spared no effort. It only took them less than half a day to return to the main family.
From afar, they saw that the main family was still peaceful, and there was no tense atmosphere. Only then did they really relax. But at the same time, they were puzzled. Since they were so relaxed, then what exactly was the matter that made the Old Master issue an urgent order to call them back?
As soon as they rode into the manor, He Quan Yi immediately came up. He laughed and said, "Second brother, I predicted that you would arrive at this time."
He Quan Ming jumped off the horse and asked hurriedly, "Third brother, what happened?"
He Quan Yi chuckled and said, "Don't worry, it's a good thing." With that, he looked around and shook his head slightly.
He Quan Ming immediately shut his mouth, but he was more and more curious. Even the family's spies had to be avoided. It must be no small matter.
Under He Quan Yi's lead, everyone came to the He Family's courtyard. He Yiming saw that Old Master He, He Quan Xin, He Yitian and He Yihai were all there. And to his surprise, there was an old man in servant's clothes sitting next to Old Master He.
As soon as they saw this old man, He Quan Ming and his two sons were excited.
This old man was He Laibao, the personal old servant who had always lived in the library and grew up with Old Master He. Although his internal strength cultivation had reached the ninth level, he had always considered himself a servant of the He Family.
Of course, no one dared to really treat this old man as a servant. Even Old Master He had specially arranged for him to retire in the library's courtyard. He was also the only servant who could sit in front of the core members of the He Family.
Seeing He Quan Ming and his two sons enter, He Laibao immediately stood up and said, "Second master, third master, sixth master."
He Quan Ming immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, "Uncle Bao, why are you here? What happened in the family?"
He Yiming and his two brothers called out at the same time, "Hello, Master Bao." Then, they looked nervously at the people in the hall.
At this moment, all the men in the He Family who had reached the sixth level of internal strength cultivation and above had gathered here. This could be said to be all the power of the He Family. To be able to alarm so many people, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a matter of life and death for the He Family.
Old Master He waved his hand and said, "Sit."
He Quan Ming and the others did not dare to disobey, so they could only sit angrily.
He Wude twirled his long beard and said, "Quan Ming, I heard that something big happened in the Cheng Residence?"
"Yes." He Quan Ming said solemnly, "Two nights ago, a group of people suddenly attacked the Cheng Residence. The number of casualties in the Cheng Residence exceeded a hundred. At this moment, the city is in a state of panic. Everyone is in danger. "
"Do you know who did it?"
"I don't know. According to the news from the Cheng Residence, no one recognized the bodies left behind by the thieves. It should be some outsiders who did it." He Quan Ming pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that the Cheng Residence even lost the thousand-year blood ginseng. Perhaps the thieves came for this treasure."
He Yiming looked at his father in surprise. He did not expect his father to be so capable. He actually guessed so accurately.
He Wude nodded slightly. However, losing the thousand-year blood ginseng might not be a bad thing for the He Family.
He Quan Ming hesitated for a moment and finally said, "Father, today Cheng Jiahui came to find this child and proposed …" He paused and looked at He Yitian. "He wants to have a marriage alliance with our family's Tian."
He Wude was startled. "He wants to have a marriage alliance with Tian 'er."
"Yes, Cheng Jiahui's second daughter, Cheng Yanli, is seventeen this year. In terms of age, Tian 'er is just right. However, this child is not sure why they suddenly want to have a marriage alliance when they just met with a disaster. There is something strange about it. We must guard against it. "He Quan Ming said seriously.
Everyone in the room looked at He Yitian with a strange expression. He Yitian was even more embarrassed.
He Wude thought for a moment and said, "We'll talk about this later. Quan Xin, do you know why I'm looking for you?"
"This child does not know." He Quan Ming and his two sons immediately listened attentively.
He Wude pointed at He Quan Yi. He immediately stood up and said, "Second brother, ever since Yiming encountered the fox bear on the mountain, we've been keeping this matter in mind. We've also been guarding the outskirts of the forest. The day before yesterday, this little brother went up the mountain and accidentally found an adult golden crowned python. "
