Ask the Mirror Chapter 71: The culprit behind the collapse of the string (Part 2)

lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Asking Mirror!

Although the Maritime Chamber of Commerce is currently in a good situation. But discerning people like Ao Yang have discovered that such a major change, unprecedented in history, has pushed the Maritime Chamber of Commerce to the highest peak, and there is no basis for reference as to how to proceed in the future.

In the ten years since Haiouxu was founded, the Maritime Chamber of Commerce has been getting better and better. However, from top to bottom, no one has a clear understanding of the future direction. They are like galloping on a foggy mountain road. It seems that they are rising step by step, but in fact they have no roots under their feet and no bottom on the cliff. In any case, they cannot find the "security" they should have.

Maybe, except Mrs. Hua.

This beautiful woman with an unfathomable mind has single-handedly brought the Maritime Chamber of Commerce to its current position with her frail body and shocking methods. However, she still has a foreign surname. It’s not that no one is afraid, and it’s not that no one has evil intentions.

But things like "the bird is gone and the bow is hidden" and "the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked" can only be done when the heat is high. If you really can't wait and do something stupid, your enemies such as Suixin Pavilion and Sanxitang, who are watching covetously from behind, may have to celebrate.

This sense of crisis of "prosperity and decline" was most likely created by Mrs. Hua. This was her strategy to protect herself.

If this problem is not solved for a day, they will suffer from Mrs. Hua's frail body and her thoughts that are often difficult to understand and measure.

The senior leaders of the Maritime Chamber of Commerce split into several factions for this reason.

The most conservative ones think that the model of the Maritime Chamber of Commerce in the past is the most ideal. Although it is tepid, it can last for generations. They are the most hostile to Mrs. Hua. They think that this woman is a poisonous snake that has brought them to the world. The enemy is in an embarrassing situation, and he almost wants to get rid of it quickly. However, such extreme people are still in the minority.

Correspondingly, there are naturally the supporters, who are mediocre and dull people who believe in "distrusting people and not trusting people". There are not many in number.

The real mainstream is actually the "realistic" school like Ao Yang, who "use it if it works, and leave it if it doesn't work".

In a sense, Ao Xiu also belongs to this group.

Since the "realists" are the mainstream, they should have coordinated and formed enough power to "control" or "restrain" Madam Hua.

But the problem is that this faction has split into many factions due to issues such as "degree of restraint" and "control methods".

Just like Ao Yang and Ao Xiu, they also hope to use "marriage" to control Mrs. Hua.

But there is only one Mrs. Hua, who can hold this beauty back?

The contradiction is therefore irreconcilable.

Ao Yang believed that this situation was most likely caused by Mrs. Hua. It was precisely because of her vague attitude that caused conflicts among the top management of the Maritime Chamber of Commerce, and she was in the middle of it, letting the wind and waves blow her. , all like taking a leisurely stroll.

But so what if he understands?

Kill Mrs. Hua and settle the matter once and for all? Not to mention whether he is willing to part with it or not, he will probably be buried with him at that time!

Or be courteous and courteous?

What a joke! No matter who gets help from Mrs. Hua, how can there be a place for him?

To put it bluntly, this is a "fundamental" issue involving personal interests.

Even though they knew it, they had tied the knot, and all parties kept trying hard, for fear of letting go and giving others the advantage.

Now, does Mrs. Hua want to use this method again? This time, is she no longer satisfied with the Maritime Chamber of Commerce?

If this is true...

The flying boat crossed the lake and moved towards the lotus pond at high speed.

At this time, less than half an hour has passed since the time told by Xiyumeng. Corresponding information is being compiled continuously, and Ao Yang and Ao Xiu both have a copy at hand, each looking at it for their own purposes.

But soon, both of their faces turned ugly.

"Mom, you are here to run errands for us!"

After getting off the flying boat, Ao Xiu bumped into the cold face of Lord Hanzhu. Facing this already famous master of the Great Tribulation, he really didn't have the guts to express his dissatisfaction. As for the Heavenly Lord Yuanxu who had cursed him all the way...

Forget it, looking at the current situation, I am afraid that Lord Hanzhu will have to serve him well.

At this time, the "sixth uncle", who was disgusted by the sight, was the only one who allowed him to vent.

Ao Yang's face was as solid as iron, stiff and cold.

Ao Xiu was right. The two core members of the Maritime Chamber of Commerce were called by the Xiyu Alliance to run errands and clean up the aftermath. This is not to look down on them, but the level of monks gathered near the lotus pond is this level!

After Lord Hanzhu met with them and explained some matters, he went to the lotus pond again. That was the core area where the incident occurred. At this time, it had been sealed by layers of restrictions. No matter whether it was effective or not, his attitude was always the same. Stand up first.

Under the current situation, it is impossible for Ao Yang and Ao Xiu to get along. I could only wander around a messy waterway, and I could see the figures over there in the distance, and they were blurry.

The two of them were not stupid after all. After looking at each other, they split up and went to the nearby Xiyu League monk who was in charge of watching the scene to inquire about the situation. After going back and forth, they really asked about everything.

As a result, their faces became even more ugly...

Nothing else is needed, just the word "eternal clouds" means that the two of them cannot bear the weight no matter what.

Look at the various aquatic plants, flowers, birds, fish and insects all around that are stimulated by the rich spiritual energy and grow crazily; look at the monks from all walks of life who are attracted by the nectar and spiritual rain on the outside. , all must be shaken by the bottomless power.

Ao Yang could barely hold on, but Ao Xiu seemed a little lost.

At this time, Lord Hanzhu sent someone to call them over.

Finally entering the so-called "core area", the two "grandfather and grandson" who had been here more than once before were stunned by the strange scene in front of them.

The originally magnificent "Mingtang" has been turned into rubble and ruins, and all the water pavilions and boats on the lotus pond are gone. However, there is a pond of lotus flowers, half blooming and half withered, with clear lotus washing water on one side and fallen leaves on the other. No matter how you look at it, it has a strange and unpredictable meaning.

Crossing the lotus pond and arriving at the shore, the location is probably a row of cloisters on the side of the former Mingtang.

Here, the two of them also saw many familiar faces. In addition to the Hanzhu Shenjun from before, Li Daoqing from Danshui Temple was also there, and there was also an old man who seemed to have an ordinary face and a stooped figure. He was actually one of the three people in the North. Zheng Yuan, one of the most authoritative intelligence dealers in the lake, is known as "Old Man Zheng". He is also one of the most powerful people in the inner circle specializing in intelligence sales.

Of course, they will not ignore Yu Ci and Mrs. Hua, who are half surrounded by people like stars holding the moon.

At this time, the man and woman were very close to each other and seemed to be whispering. It looked like they were hooking up.

As Ao Xiu was thinking this, he naturally ignored the body that had just been unearthed in the ruins in front of them.

God Lord Hanzhu asked them to come here not to catch adulterers.

Zheng Yuan then took the lead and asked them about the situation, especially the identity of the corpse, their personal connections during his lifetime, etc.

Now, even Ao Yang was a little annoyed. He could tell at a glance that the corpse was clearly Mrs. Hua's personal attendant, and the relationship between the two parties was before Mrs. Hua joined the Maritime Chamber of Commerce.

Logically speaking, no matter what, you can't ask them.

From what "Old Man Zheng" means, does he regard the Maritime Chamber of Commerce as a suspect?

However, no matter how angry Ao Yang was, he did not dare to show his face at this time. He just frequently turned his eyes to Mrs. Hua and Yu Ci, who were still "whispering". He thought of saying hello more than once, but those two People know that they are coming, but they are too lazy to look back, and then look at the way other people "turn a blind eye". Inexplicably, they feel unsure, and after thinking about it again and again, they are finally unwilling to take the risk of losing this person.

Not to mention Ao Xiu, despite his previous ruthless attacks, when he really saw Yu Ci, he was just like a mouse seeing a cat, and he ran away unconsciously.

The two "ancestors and grandsons" could only try to keep their spirits up and block the buckets of dirty water poured over them by the people from the Xiyu Alliance, intentionally or unintentionally. Not to mention the aggrieved feelings in their hearts.

Neither Yu Ci nor Mrs. Hua cared about the intrigue behind them.

At this time, Mrs. Hua looked at the corpse dressed as a maid on the ruins and sighed softly: "Hua Su was the first valet I took after living in the world. The old people around me have been separated. Over the years, Thanks to her protection, he is smart and capable, and can be regarded as my right-hand man, but he still left me in the end..."

Listening to her words, everyone around her thought they were sentimental, as smooth as Li Daoqing. They even coughed lightly and wanted to comfort her, but then Mrs. Hua changed the topic and said:

“For a dying person like me, I still can’t put my mind at ease.”

The words Li Daoqing spoke were immediately stuck in his throat...it didn't taste right!

Mrs. Yu Ci Guanhua's expression was indifferent, she had already made up her mind, and she spoke softly: "The ban on the lotus pond was not for the assassins, but for me. Is it because of this person?"

Mrs. Hua sighed lightly but did not respond.

Yu Ci took another look at the corpse and saw that it had the same appearance as the previous blood puppet with the power of calamity. He knew that the person who planned the assassination must have conveniently silenced the woman and borrowed her appearance for the purpose of confusing her. It did have an effect - for him.

But what does Mrs. Hua think of this method?

He stared at Mrs. Hua's side face and said in a deep voice: "With Mrs. Hua's wisdom, would she also do something to support Tai'a?"

Mrs. Hua laughed dumbly; "The strong wind knows the strong grass, the rough grass sees the loyal ministers; there is no extraordinary thing, and there is no extraordinary ambition; the human heart is full of ghosts, otherwise it cannot be understood, why should the emperor be surprised?"

"So...someone will create a similar environment for me?"

This sentence is like a gnat or a gossamer. Outsiders will never hear it clearly, but it will definitely shake Mrs. Hua's ears clearly.

Mrs. Hua looked back, met Yu Ci's eyes, and then smiled: "Tianjun is full of resentment, full of complaints, and full of knots in his heart. Is he harassing the man?"

Her voice was also very subtle, making the two of them more like whispers.

Yu Cixin said: "Being angry and resentful is nothing but mud..."

The words suddenly broke off. He looked at Mrs. Hua and was speechless for a moment - Damn it, is she admitting it now?
