The Min family, at that time in the capital, was indeed also a family that held a lot of power.
He and the God family, were almost equal, one in the civil service and the other in the military, and if it wasn’t for that scandal later on, it might have been the Min family who would have been sitting in the highest position at that time.
“I remember, at that time, when I originally joined the military, your grandfather was dead set against it, he wanted me to stop looking for the military route and just stay in the White House, but then, once the Min family’s affair came out, he suddenly agreed.”
The old monk began to reminisce.
Hearing that, Huo Sijiu put down his teacup and raised his eyebrows.
“What kind of scandal?”
“It was when I heard that Miss Min, who was not yet married at the time, had been bumped into abroad with a large belly, and although the matter was later suppressed by the Min family with a thunderous move, Miss Min did disappear from the public eye for a few months.”
The old monk slowly and methodically told the story of that incident back then.
This incident, back then in the capital, was indeed quite a sensation, think about it, a heavy power family’s, how many pairs of eyes were watching, especially when the White House was about to have an election.
So, when that news broke out, the whole capital was in an uproar.
Even the divine emperor, Shen Zong Royal, was quite shocked.
But then, the Min family quickly dispelled the rumour, saying that Miss Min was only suffering from an illness, a tumour in her stomach, and was being treated abroad.
And, in order to make people believe it, they even got a doctor from there to dispel the rumour.
Later, the matter was just suppressed, but, in the capital’s upper cla*s circles, no one would believe such absurd words, and it was only after this happened that Shen Zong Yu, let Shen Ying continue to go to the military camp.
Because, in that case, the Min family would have fallen down considerably in the election campaign, with no hope of ever becoming the White House’s ruler again.
As it turned out, Shinzongyo’s guess at the time was right, and the Min family did lose the election that year.
However, he never expected that a young man called Baek Jung Ho would be promoted from the West Country side and in just a few years’ time, not only did he make it to the White House, he also married the Min family’s daughter.
This was a really big game of chess.
“Then, if we go by that, the one behind the manipulation at that time, was Lan Yuan.”
“Yes, isn’t Baek Jung Ho a puppet of Lan Yuan? Back then you had already checked this out, and his sickly son, Bai Bai Xuan, had also been working as an a*sa*sin in the teahouse.”
The old monk also nodded, with a sigh in his voice.
This matter, indeed, surprised him as well, he did not expect that after going around so much, the source of the matter, had come back to the original point, this old beast, indeed, had great tact.
“So where is this child now? Have you found out?”
“No.”
Huo Siji was frank.
The old monk froze!
No?
There was actually a time when this little brat would miss?
He was surprised, probably, because after so many years, the impression this son had created on him had also become omnipotent, so it was a bit strange for him to say no now.
Huo Sijiu grimaced a handsome face.
“Is it strange that I didn’t find out? When Lan Yuan sought out Min to have that child, it certainly wasn’t for bullsh*t love, he was using her as a tool, and since he was a tool, the son he had so hard to give birth to, you think he wouldn’t have hidden it properly?”
He’s upset.
Because this old guy, it was clear that he was the old man and he was the son, but now look at his expression, but it was clear that the big red lantern hanging high had nothing to do with him half the time.
Old monk: “……”
Coughing awkwardly twice, he picked up the teapot and poured a cup of boiling hot tea for this rebellious son.
“Have some tea, huh ……”
“……”
Father and son played a few more games of chess, and at the entrance of the temple, Wen Shuxu suddenly drove up in a car against the wind and snow.
“Brother, when do you plan to come down from the mountain? It’s going to be the New Year soon.”
The New Year?
The two people in the gazebo who were playing chess were stunned when the words fell.
Yes, it was already the twentieth day of the lunar month, and in a few days it would be the New Year’s Eve.
The old monk put down his tea cup and looked at the couple with a smile on his face and said, “Since that’s the case, then Master Huo should go back first, counting, this is also your first New Year back after the robbery, you should celebrate it properly.”
“Huh?”
Wen Shuxu immediately gazed at him again.
“Master, won’t you come down with us?”
Her meaning was simple, this old monk was her father-in-law, so since they had all recognized each other, it was definitely necessary to go down together on such a festive day as New Year’s Eve, so that everyone would be lively.
But the old monk smiled and shook his head.
“The poor monk will not go down, the poor monk is a monk, no longer belongs to the outside world of red dust and mundane, the two monks please go back.”
“But ……”
“Go!”
Wen Shuxu only just said two words, this man has thrown down the cup of tea in his hand and stood up, lifted his feet and walked away.
Look at Wen Shuxu ……
All the way out of the door of this temple, Wen Shuxu only caught up with this man, and then grabbed his arm.
