Wei Xuan was a little absent-minded at the moment, still thinking about the information he just read about the White Tiger Hall. Although Wei Xuan heard Mrs. Wei briefly talk about it before, he was still deeply shocked after reading it carefully. The power of the White Tiger Hall can be said to be all over the world.

Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou and other counties all have branches. Needless to say, in Hedong, there are Fentang in each county. Relying on the Wei family members in various places, they are responsible for the daily life of local officials, down to the lowest level.

People's lives are well understood.

Baihutang also monitored the court officials very closely. Wei Xuan only read part of it, mainly the bribery records of Shi Chang, who were close to the emperor. The amount and time were clearly recorded in it. I think the Wei family had a lot of control over Shi Chang.

Shi Ye has been paying attention to it for a long time.

The first thing Wei Xuan thought of was the Jinyiwei. Although the White Tiger Hall of the Wei family was still far behind the Jinyiwei in terms of scale, and its combat power was obviously insufficient. In addition, he only paid attention to being attacked but forgot about the guards at the base camp. He didn't expect Wang Yue to do so.

Come and kill!

Wei Xuan was so dazed that he didn't even notice that Tong Yuan, whom he had been invited to invite, arrived. Wei Xuan did not deliberately neglect Tong Yuan, but his mind was entirely focused on today's meeting with the leader of the White Tiger Hall.

It was crucial to successfully control the White Tiger Hall. He didn't expect to make them surrender today, but at least he had to leave a good impression. After thinking about it, Wei Xuan decided to ask the great god Tong Yuan to help him.

In the town hall, although Wei Su and Tong Yuan did not admit in their hearts that Wei Xuan was Tong Yuan's disciple, Wei Xuan had been studying with Tong Yuan for some time, and many people in the Wei family knew that it was Tong Yuan who blocked Wang Yue and others that day.

.

The two walked out of the Chu Mansion, and a carriage was waiting outside the door. Seeing the two people coming out, the coachman waiting beside them knocked on the door gently, and a thin old man got out of the car. Wei Xuan walked up the first two steps:

"My grandson will visit his grandfather and follow him."

Tong Yuan couldn't help but look solemn when he heard Wei Xuan call the old man his grandfather. He thought that Wei Su was already an elder, but he didn't expect that the second-oldest man was actually Wei Su's elder, presumably the former head of the White Tiger Hall.

The old man exchanged pleasantries with Wei Xuan, then clasped his fists at Tong Yuan and said with a smile: "Old Wei Cheng, this must be Mr. Tong."

Tong Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his words were very accommodating. He stepped forward and saluted, "This junior is Tong Yuan. He has met Mr. Wei Si."

When the old man saw him claiming to be a junior, he was slightly startled. After thinking about it, he suddenly understood and said, "Our Wei family has a deep connection with Yehan Palace. Mr. Tong, there is no need to be polite. If you need help from Baihu Hall in the future, just tell Xuan'er."

It's time." He turned back to Wei Xuan and said, "Xuan'er, it's getting late, let's get in the car."

The carriage drove through Anyi City for less than half an hour. Tong Yuan could no longer remember how many turns he had made when he suddenly heard a whistle and the carriage slowed down. Wei Cheng said to the two of them, "Let's get out of the car." He opened the door.

The car curtain jumped down, and he did not look like an old man over seventy years old at all. Tong Yuan and Wei Xuan also hurriedly got out of the car.

Tong Yuan looked around and saw that several people were in an alley, which seemed strange to him. Although he had been there for several days, he had never been to such a place before.

Wei Cheng led the two of them to an ordinary house, opened the door and walked in.

The courtyard of this house is not big, and the few items placed around it are quite old. It is obviously an ordinary home. An old man is sweeping the fallen leaves in the courtyard with a broom, and the old lady is muttering to someone who looks like her son.

The young man was complaining about something, and next to him there was a young woman playing with a babbling toddler in the courtyard. Wei Cheng and the other three walked past them, but these people actually turned a blind eye.

Wei Xuan secretly admired that the White Tiger Hall was indeed well-organized and lived up to its reputation. If he could fully control it, it would be a great help to him.

The three of them came to the kitchen in the back room. Wei Cheng skillfully tapped several places on the wall, opened the pile of firewood, and a secret passage appeared in front of the three of them.

Wei Cheng led Wei Xuan and Tong Yuan into the secret passage. After walking for a while, they turned a corner and entered a hall. Wei Xuan looked at it and saw that a dozen people had arrived in the hall first, scattered in twos and threes, talking softly in several places.

Wei Cheng stood at the door and coughed lightly. Everyone was shocked and stood in awe.

Wei Cheng asked Wei Xuan to sit down at the main seat. Wei Xuan knew that this was the seat of the leader of the White Tiger Hall, so he pretended to be humble and sat down. He knew that Wei Cheng had a high prestige in the White Tiger Hall, so he naturally had to be polite. Wei Xuan

Looking at the audience, he saw that most people were looking at him curiously, and some of them had slightly slanted corners of their mouths, obviously disdainful of him sitting in the main seat.

However, Tong Yuan saw a familiar person. It was Chen Zhong who showed up at the scene of Wang Yue's assassination for the first time that day and fought with the assassins in black. Chen Zhong smiled and saluted Tong Yuan, then turned to

Wei Xuan also bowed slightly, and he had no intention of looking down upon this young man sitting in a high position.

In addition to being the son of the Taiwei, this man also blocked Wang Yue for Wei Su in a critical moment, which also saved Baihutang a bit of face. Of course, more importantly, Tong Yuan, who came with Wei Xuan, blocked Wang Yue alone.

The five or six men in black inside launched a frenzied attack, which also bought time for the Wei family to provide follow-up reinforcements.

Wei Cheng and Tong Yuan sat down at the left and right seats respectively. Wei Cheng glanced at the audience and said: "Basically all the deacons from Baihu Hall are here today, including the deacons from Hanoi, Jingzhaoyin, and Jinyang branches.

It can be said to be a rare grand event for our White Tiger Hall in the past ten years."

Wei Xuan was slightly surprised. He originally thought that only a few deacons from Baihu Hall in Hedong were here, but he did not expect that all the leaders near Baihu Hall were here.

Wei Chengdao: "I think you all know the reason for inviting everyone here today. I should have retired more than ten years ago. Apart from such a big thing, Baihutang didn't know anything about it beforehand."

, the enemy could not be stopped during the matter, and no more information has been provided to the family until now. I was really ashamed of the Wei family. So I resigned as the head of the hall on the same day.

But the head of the family insisted on persuading me to stay and assist the old man's grandson Xuan'er in charge of the White Tiger Hall. The old man had been the master of the White Tiger Hall for ten years. Everyone sitting here is familiar with the old man. He knows the temperament of this rotten old man like me. Let the old man say something.

Previously, when I returned to Baihu Hall this time, I didn't come to take charge of the family, but to assist Xuan'er.

White Tiger Hall was founded by the Wei family, and all previous hall masters were appointed by the Wei family patriarch. Everyone here is an old man in the hall, so they should all know it. Xuan'er is still young and not very familiar with the specific affairs of Baihu Hall, so the patriarch

Cai ordered Lao Chen to assist, but Xuan'er is exercising the power of the hall master. Lao Cai hopes that everyone can also regard Xuan'er as the master of the hall, and there must be no neglect. Otherwise, you will know the rules in this hall less than Lao Chen, right?

.”

An old man with a red face stood up and said with cupped hands: "Please rest assured, Mr. Fourth, the White Tiger Hall has always followed the leader of the Wei family. Since the Taiwei has already taken over as the head of the clan and appointed the young master to take charge of the White Tiger Hall, it is obviously his utmost respect for the White Tiger Hall.

We attach great importance to you. Although Young Master is not yet the Hall Master of the White Tiger Hall, with the help of Mr. Fourth, it will only be a matter of time before he becomes the Hall Master. Naturally, we respect you and will obey your orders."

Wei Xuan smiled slightly after hearing this. The red-faced old man spoke very loudly, and looked at Wei Xuan's face from time to time. He was obviously showing his loyalty. He seemed to be a man who could make the most of the situation. Several people around him looked at this red-faced man.

The old man smiled half-heartedly, obviously quite disdainful of him.

Wei Cheng nodded and said: "Deacon Tang is an elder in the hall. It is really rare to have such an intention. I am deeply gratified."

Then a few more people stood up and expressed their opinions. What they said was not as impassioned as that of Deacon Tang. They just said a few words lightly, and some of them were purely perfunctory.

Wei Xuan didn't take it seriously. It's good to have such an effect on today's trip. At least there are people like Deacon Tang in the hall who can adapt to the situation. Although such people are not very useful, they will at least be helpful to him.

Understand the situation inside Baihutang.

Wei Cheng waited for everyone to finish speaking, and glanced at Wei Xuan. Wei Xuan knew that it was his turn to speak, so that in future generations it would be the policy agenda for the new official to take office. He looked at the crowd and said, "Today it is me and the deacons.

First time we met. Thanks to the great love of the sect master, I was allowed to go to Baihu Hall to manage the affairs of the hall. Xuan is still young, so I am a little scared to take on the important responsibility for the first time. Everyone here has been in Baihu Hall for many years, and many of them are my elders.

If I do anything wrong in the future, please give me a heads up."

Wei Cheng was a little disappointed when he saw that Wei Xuan's words were restrained and plain. Just as he was about to respond, Wei Xuan unexpectedly changed the topic and said: "But I guess there are a lot of people here who are dissatisfied with a young guy taking charge of the White Tiger Hall."

exist."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room suddenly had strange expressions on their faces, with all sorts of expressions on their faces.

Seeing the anxious look on Wei Cheng's face, Wei Xuan secretly waved his hand at him and said with a smile: "I think this is normal. If I were standing below and saw an eighteen or nineteen-year-old sitting on the main seat,

Young man, if he still manages me from now on, I will naturally not accept it."

I don't know who laughed, and everyone's expressions softened. Seeing the young man speaking frankly, they couldn't help but feel a little good in their hearts.

"There are also some deacons who are afraid that I will be too young to do anything. The big White Tiger Hall has to deal with hundreds of large and small things every day, and they are afraid that I can't handle it. But please don't worry, in Xuan's opinion, my grandfather and everyone have overestimated it.

The role of the White Tiger Hall to the Wei family. For example, when Wang Yue came this time, if my master had not arrived in time, the old house of the Wei family would have been filled with blood, and the core members of the Wei family would have been slaughtered! May I ask who was proud at that time?

Where is the White Tiger Hall? Has it been some time since Wang Yue came to Anyi when he came from Luoyang and found the Taiwei's study as soon as possible? Did someone in our Wei family send him a tip? Does the White Tiger Hall have any files on this? "

As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became weird.
