Yan Qianqian said dissatisfiedly: "Everyone is here to congratulate you, why are you still pretending to hold it?"

Jiang Xiaofeng heard Yan Qianqian speak directly and didn't know how to answer.

In order to ease the awkward situation, Zhou Yueyue quickly said: "Brother Jiang, let's go hold a celebration banquet for you. I have already decided the place. Let's go together."

Zhou Yueyue is indeed a young lady from a wealthy family and is very generous.

She had already reserved her seat, and she believed that Jiang Xiaofeng would definitely win, and she could go directly to celebrate when it was over.

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't plan to celebrate. After all, he didn't mean to defeat any top master. Such small opponents were no threat to him in the first place and were just commonplace. However, he saw that everyone was very excited and he didn't want to spoil everyone's fun.

I had no choice but to agree.

Zhou Yueyue was so happy to see Jiang Xiaofeng agree to her invitation. She looked at Fu Ruoxi, Yan Qianqian and Lin Xuan next to her and said to them: "Everyone, let's go."

Zhou Yueyue obviously wanted to get closer to the three of them. The three of them did not say that they had any deep grudge against Zhou Yueyue. Seeing that Zhou Yueyue had already shown their kindness in advance, he could not be too unkind, so he nodded and said:

"Okay, let's go celebrate Brother Jiang together."

Several girls pulled Jiang Xiaofeng and happily walked towards the hotel.

In fact, Liu Ruyan had been standing not far away watching all this. In fact, she also came to congratulate Jiang Xiaofeng.

But seeing Jiang Xiaofeng surrounded by Zhou Yueyue and the others, it seemed inconvenient for him to go there, so he gave up.

…

In Kyoto, a group of people are gathering in a very distinctive house.

Everyone was sitting around a table discussing something. Sitting in the middle was an old man who looked very old. This man was Mr. Liu.

The people here now are all big shots, either important persons in charge of certain state agencies or high-level officials of the military.

Sitting next to Mr. Liu was none other than "Xiao Cao" whom Mr. Liu had contacted before, Chief Cao.

In fact, Chief Cao is not young anymore, but in front of Mr. Liu, he is really just Xiao Cao.

Chief Cao looked at Mr. Liu and said respectfully: "Uncle Liu, it's been a long time since I last saw you. You must have something important to do when you come to Kyoto in person this time."

Everyone looked at Mr. Liu and waited for his answer.

It has been a long time since Mr. Liu took action in person. After all, he is already old. It is probably not an easy matter for Mr. Liu to make a special trip to Kyoto this time.

Mr. Liu looked at Chief Cao, then at everyone, and said with a smile: "Xiao Cao understands me. I have several important things to do here this time. First, I want to come to Kyoto again when I can move around.

Look, after all, this is the place where I shed my blood. At that time, Xiao Cao’s father and I fought tooth and nail to capture Kyoto.”

When Chief Cao heard what Mr. Liu said, he quickly agreed.

The people next to me also nodded.

Now Liu Lao has retreated behind the scenes for a long time, but he is the founding general after all, and everyone still respects him.

"I have one more thing that I would like to ask you for help with," Mr. Liu said.

Everyone saw that Mr. Liu was very serious and even said "please help me", so they knew that this matter was not simple.

Chief Cao quickly said: "Uncle Liu, you don't need to be so polite. You don't need to say "please" to us juniors. As long as you ask, we will do whatever we can."

Everyone nearby quickly echoed, "You're welcome, Mr. Liu, it's our honor to be able to help."

Mr. Liu said: "I would like to ask for your help to release He Pingchuan."

Everyone became nervous when they heard the three words "He Pingchuan". These three words sounded like a taboo word to these people and they were not allowed to mention it.

Now Mr. Liu not only said these three words, but also asked them to find a way to rescue He Pingchuan.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to answer.

Chief Cao looked at everyone's expressions, thought for a moment and said: "Mr. Liu, you also know He Pingchuan's situation. If you are talking about other things today, as long as we can do it, we will definitely be obliged to do so. But you said that He Pingchuan should be released.

Pingchuan, maybe we really can’t do this.”

Mr. Liu saw that everyone was in trouble and said: "I also know that this matter is not easy, but please think about it, He Pingchuan is a hero and has fought for the country through life and death. Now he has been 'protected' there for half his life.

, he should have fully atoned for the 'sin' he committed, right?"

In fact, everyone knows the ins and outs of this matter, but this matter really makes them embarrassed.

Because He Pingchuan was "protected" this time, it was not only the decision of the tribunal at that time, but also a decision of a higher authority.

Although the people present are all high-level officials now, compared to "the superiors", they are minor players. Without orders, how could they dare to rescue He Pingchuan.

None of them dared to speak.

Mr. Liu saw that everyone's eyes were dodging and no one spoke. He tapped the table and said sternly: "The main purpose of my coming this time is to take He Pingchuan away. I will give you three days to help me take He Pingchuan away."

If I haven't seen He Pingchuan in three days, don't blame me for finding another way to save him."

After saying that, Mr. Liu stood up from his seat and left directly.

Chief Cao and others were all sitting in their seats, thinking about how to solve this matter. Mr. Liu got up and left, and they didn't even realize that they should go see him off.

Now they were the only ones left. Chief Cao looked at the people present and said, "How do you think this matter should be resolved? Mr. Liu didn't speak easily. Now that he has spoken, we can't ignore it."

Someone among them immediately said: "Old Cao, we also want to help Mr. Liu. Everything else is easy to talk about, but this matter..."

"And when Mr. Liu says this now, he obviously wants to force us to agree..." The person who said this used to be Lao Jiang, and Lao Jiang was the deputy director who was crippled by He Pingchuan.

When someone said this, Lao Cao was very angry.

At this time, someone next to him said: "Old Cao, to be honest, Mr. Liu is using his status to oppress us...and he is no longer in office now..."

When Chief Cao heard this, he became even more angry. He slapped the table and shouted: "Shut up, all of you. Mr. Liu is a great hero of the country. Even if what he says is not excessive, you are not qualified to speak against him."

The person who just spoke saw that Lao Cao was angry, so he had no choice but to shut up.

Seeing the scene, everyone was very embarrassed and quickly came to the rescue: "Let's discuss first how to solve the problem of rescuing He Pingchuan."

After that, everyone started a heated discussion, everyone expressed their opinions, but after a long time, there was no answer.

Lao Cao thought for a while and said: "There is only one way now. Let me talk to the 'superior' about this and see what happens."

After hearing what Lao Cao said, everyone seemed to have no other choice.

Lao Jiang's men had just been rebuked by Lao Cao, and now they were aggrieved. When he heard that Lao Cao wanted to report this matter to "the superiors", he thought to himself: I have to tell Chief Chiang quickly later, and I can't let He Pingchuan do this.

Comes out easily.

Several of these people were familiar with the He family, and they thought they would inform the He family about this matter as soon as possible.

Chief Cao is of course on Mr. Liu's side, but his status is not enough to agree to this matter, so after thinking about it, maybe reporting it directly to the 'superior' is the best way.
