Nine Turns of Nirvana

The butler's words made both Ye and his son's hearts skip a beat at the same time.

Ye Feifan had a surprised look in his eyes, staring at the exquisite jade pendant, and asked doubtfully: "Dad, who does this belong to?"

Ye Zhengkang was silent for a moment and sighed: "This is Lu Wenyao's token! When your grandfather was alive, he had a good personal relationship with Lu Wenyao. Once our Ye family was in trouble, and it was Lu Wenyao who came to help and resolved the crisis. Your grandfather did it for To express my gratitude, I made this jade pendant with my own hands and gave it to him. I was the one who came to his door in person and delivered this jade pendant to him..."

"Lu Wenyao? The head of the Lu family in Ding'an?"

Ye Feifan was slightly surprised, but soon his eyes turned disdainful.

"Does the Lu family want to play the emotional card against us? Isn't this too naive? Not to mention that grandpa has passed away for so many years. Even if he is still alive, how can the family's interests be used emotionally?"

"It seems that life is not easy for the Lu family. They must have been desperate, so they came to our door and used such old tricks..."

"Dad, why don't we capture the envoy he sent alive and force him to question the Lu family's plan and deployment, and then Zheng Zheng will respond to their plan and deployment, give them a fatal blow, and take down the entire Lu family in one fell swoop. This is something the Third Prince can do It must be a great achievement in front of you!”

Ye Feifan became more and more excited as he talked, and his eyes showed a fanatical look again.

This time, Ye Zhengkang did not refute him again, but said noncommittally: "Let's take a look at the situation first... Where are they now?"

"I left them waiting in the drum tower in the backyard." The housekeeper quickly replied.

"Arrange for them to come over immediately!"

"yes!"

The Lu family sent an envoy to visit. This was news that needed to be kept strictly confidential, so the housekeeper immediately began to clear the place and re-deployed guards inside and outside the house before quietly going to the Drum Tower.

Soon, the messenger from the Lu family walked in from the side door.

It turned out that they were two tall men wearing raincoats. They walked into the hall one after another. The one walking in front was in his forties, his eyes were shining, and he looked smart and capable; the one walking behind was looking smart and capable. He carried a huge sack on his shoulders, covering his face, making it difficult for people to see clearly and not knowing what was inside the sack. He even carried it all the way here and refused to put it down...

"Coach Lu!"

Ye Zhengkang directly called out the name of the man walking in front. Seeing Lu Yongfu appear, the last trace of doubt in his heart was dispelled.

Lu Yongfu is Lu Wenyao's confidant. Since he appears here, it means that their trip was indeed instructed by the old man of the Lu family, rather than someone else stealing the token.

"Chief Ye, long time no see!"

Lu Yongfu cupped his hands towards Ye Zhengkang, then turned sideways to let the man behind him come up.

"This is our Lu family's young cousin, Young Master Wang Tieyi! He is the one in charge of this visit, and he can make any decision on behalf of our Lu family!"

Ye Zhengkang was startled and couldn't help but look at the man. At this moment, the man had put down the sack on his shoulders, revealing a face full of flesh with a long and narrow scar.

"Scarker!"

Ye Zhengkang's expression changed and he blurted out an exclamation.

Ye Feifan on the side couldn't help but look stunned: "Are you the scar guest who captured Xiang Sheng in Ding'an and forced back Gu Sian, the number one swordsman in Kyoto?"

He also did not expect that this legendary top master, now the imaginary enemy of all the families in Lujiang City, would actually appear here in a grand manner.

The big man with the scar face smiled and said: "I'm Wang Tieyi. People in the world call me Scar King. I didn't expect you two to have heard of my name. I'm so famous now... Hey, Scar Guest, this title is actually used by Scar. Scar King should be more elegant, it would be a good idea for me to be called this name from now on!"

Ye's father and son looked at each other and saw the look of shock in each other's eyes.

Ye Feifan suddenly sneered: "As expected of Scar's guest, you are indeed very talented and bold! Do you know that after you captured Xiang Sheng, the Xiang family has issued a sky-high reward for you. Now there are countless people in Lujiang City I wanted to kill you, but you unexpectedly came to my door? "

Lu Yu smiled faintly: "Among these people, shouldn't they include Chief Ye and Mr. Ye?"

Ye Feifan has always had a high self-esteem, and when he saw the other party's confident look, he became very angry and snorted: "That's impossible to say!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become tense, Ye Zhengkang remained calm and said lightly: "Quinzi always likes to joke, please don't take offense, Mr. Wang..."

"Young Master Wang should know that our Ye family has no ill intentions towards the Lu family, otherwise we would not have remained silent despite the repeated urging of the governor. I think that Young Master Wang also has no ill intentions towards our Ye family. I don't know why. What’s the purpose of this visit?”

Lu Yu said with a smile: "Not only does Wang have no ill intentions towards the Ye family, but he also has good intentions for coming here! The purpose of our visit tonight has already been explained to the housekeeper of your house. As the helmsman of the Ye family, doesn't it mean that Chief Ye doesn't want to let him go?" Will the Ye family become more powerful, replace the Xiang family, and become the true first family in Lujiang County? "

Ye Zhengkang said: "Young Master Wang is joking. Our Ye family and Xiang family are in the same city. We have always been on good terms with each other and help each other. How can we go to war for these false reputations?"

"I know that you and the Xiang family have been at odds recently, and the two sides are in conflict. It is reasonable for you to want us to help. However, our Ye family also has internal and external troubles and many worries. We can do both. Helping each other is our greatest sincerity. We hope that Mr. Wang can understand our difficulties. There is really nothing we can do to help..."

Ye Zhengkang spoke sincerely and with an extremely sincere look, but he had already made up his mind secretly in his heart. Even if the scar-faced man in front of him made extravagant remarks, there was absolutely no way he would agree to his request.

He was determined to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Only in this way could the Ye family's interests be maximized.

Ye Feifan on the side followed, but his words were much more explicit: "The biggest supporter behind your Lu family is Lu Yu, who has just become a disciple of the Dali Sword Sect, while the Xiang family's backers are three people. Prince! No matter how powerful Lu Yu is, he is just a disciple of the Dali Sword Sect. Even if the third prince is not the future king of the Great Wu Dynasty, he must be a powerful prince! "

"Even the Dali Sword Sect has always been polite to the Dawu Dynasty and has never interfered in the internal affairs of the dynasty. How can a small disciple of the Dali Sword Sect be able to fight against His Highness the Third Prince? Therefore, I suggest you best Stop it when it's good, lest things get bigger and bigger and end up being unstoppable!"

"If you are willing to surrender, our Ye family can help you deal with it, and we will ensure that you will not suffer too much loss! If you are wise, think about it quickly!"

On the surface, Ye Feifan was trying to dismantle his father, but in fact, the father and son were in a tacit understanding, one being a good person and the other a bad person.

If it had been anyone else, I am afraid that they would have been confused by the tricks of the father and son. However, the expression on Lu Yu's face did not change at all, and he remained calm.

He smiled slightly and said: "I have known for a long time that it is not easy to persuade the Ye family to turn against the Xiang family, so I specially prepared a gift for Patriarch Ye. How did Patriarch Ye choose? How about making a decision after seeing my gift?"

As he spoke, Lu Yu untied the sack placed at his feet, then kicked him down to the floor.

Suddenly, an embarrassed figure rolled out of the sack, and it turned out to be the captured second son of the Xiang family, Xiang Sheng.
