Chapter 599: Chapter 367, Bloodshed Incident! _2
“Uncle Two, you can’t talk like that… How have we not stood up for Jian Yi?” Qin Zhong Yu said with a displeased look on his face. “Jian Yi was taken away, and we’re more anxious than anyone else.”
The words of Qin Wangshu made them feel very uncomfortable; he praised the Personal Guard while dismissing them as useless.
Hadn’t they been running around busily for Jian Yi’s sake? Why did they painstakingly pull strings and call in favors if not for that?
Could they act like these brainless mbers of the Personal Guard who just start brawls at the drop of a hat?
In the end, who would take responsibility? Who would clean up the ss?
Just like now…
The Personal Guard and the Monitoring Bureau were fighting, so who would handle the aftermath?
It would still be them doing the work.
“That’s right, I would indeed like to fight them full out… but after the fight, would Jian Yi just be safely released?”
“At this ti, causing such a scene… doesn’t that just play into Jian Yi’s hands? It was already said his situation was bad, isn’t this just loading bullets in soone else’s gun?”
“What’s up? Has everyone lost their minds?” Qin Wangshu, seeing the younger generation contradicting him, said irritably, “Can’t you even take a few words of criticism?”
“If you’re really as spirited, then fight like the Personal Guard… just win and I’ll clean up after you.”
“They say there’s no way out once you enter the Monitoring Bureau… I won’t accept that… I want to go in and see, is it really like Yama Palace or a battlefield?”
“Why are you getting upset with a bunch of kids?” Qin Wangyue sighed softly and said to Qin Wangshu, “We’re all family, and naturally we should all pull together. Now that the situation has arisen, we need to think about what to do next.”
“The Personal Guard stord into the Monitoring Bureau, causing a bloody conflict. This is a political incident, and soone needs to step up and take responsibility,” Qin Wangyuan, though the youngest among the three brothers but mature and composed, analyzed, “A slip here could spell disaster.”
Qin Wangyue looked over and asked aloud, “Little Brother, what do you think?”
“Whose Personal Guard is it?” Qin Wangyuan asked.
“Uncle Three, is that even a question? It’s obviously Jian Yi’s Personal Guard…” a younger family mber answered.
“Then whose Qin Jian Yi is he?”
…
No one answered that question.
But so people looked thoughtful, and it was unclear what they were contemplating.
“Yes, Qin Jian Yi belongs to the Qin Family and is also the leader of the Dragonblood chanical Battalion of the Fla-Bathed Legion. Once he joined the military, he beca the Qin Jian Yi of the military, the Qin Jian Yi of the Empire.”
“Country cos before family. We must be careful never to confuse our loyalties…”
Qin Wangyue nodded and said, “I share the sa thoughts as Wangyuan. Jian Yi is first and foremost the Qin Jian Yi of the Fla-Bathed Legion, and only then the Qin Jian Yi of the Qin Family. He was taken away on official business, and those Personal Guards are not our private soldiers, but soldiers of the Fla-Bathed Legion…”
“If we take the initiative to shoulder this, will… the upper echelons question, which position is Qin Jian Yi really filling? Whose family are the Personal Guards loyal to?”
“If the higher-ups start thinking along these lines, Jian Yi will be in even greater danger… and so will the Qin Family.”
“What now?” Qin Wangshu asked with a cold sneer, “Just for the safety of the Qin Family, are those kids just to be abandoned?”
“I’ll call Tang Shengyan, asking him to pay close attention to this matter,” Qin Wangyue said.
Tang Shengyan, as the commander of the Fla-Bathed Legion, has the moral authority to intervene.
“What if he doesn’t want to?” Qin Wangyuan inquired, “He isn’t one of our people.”
“Though he may not be ours, he only needs to consider himself part of the Fla-Bathed Legion… then he must take action,” Qin Wangyue said confidently, “He has always been known for his love and care for his soldiers. Now that it’s nearing an outco and such an incident has occurred… if he disregards it, wouldn’t that tarnish his own reputation?”
“That’s why, never create a persona, it’s easy to be exploited,” Qin Wangshu said jovially.
Hearing that Qin Wangyue had already organized a contingency, the others no longer argued.

Luojia Mountain. Bamboo Sea Courtyard.
Like any other day, Shen Boyu lay on the bamboo chair in the courtyard, listening to tunes.
A woman dressed in a dark cheongsam sang in a high-pitched opera tone on the stage, while Shen Boyu’s eyes were half-closed, rhythmically tapping his fingers on the armrest.
Just then, the old butler, Chang Biao, walked in, crouched down beside him, and whispered, “Second Master, sothing happened outside, may I report it to you?”
“Let’s hear it, since I’m free anyway,” Shen Boyu murmured with his eyes squinting.
“So days ago, wasn’t Tang Fei capturing Qin Yuyang and his brother Qin Jian Yi? Today, Qin Jian Yi’s Personal Guard surrounded the Monitoring Bureau… conflict broke out, and in his rage, Tang Fei even beheaded a deputy team leader…”
Shen Boyu finally opened his eyes, looked up at the sky, deep in thought, then said, “This doesn’t make sense, what act are they putting on?”
“Second Master thinks they are putting on an act?”
“I’m wondering whose interests this serves,” Shen Boyu stated, “Without soone’s instigation, would the Personal Guard dare to commit such a heinous act?”
“Indeed,” Uncle Biao agreed, “I also feel sothing is amiss here.”
“But who would instigate them to do such a thing?” Shen Boyu questioned, “Qin Jian Yi? That would be cutting off his own escape. The Qin Family? Even less likely, as Qin Wangyue is as timid as a mouse and cunning as a fox…”
