Chapter 136: Poisoner Zhou Tianming
Ding Jinchong sat in the main seat, his eyes always stayed on Zhao Guiting, and a layer of sweat beads appeared on his back.
After all, among the six valves, the strength of the Zhao valve is the strongest, and at this moment, the intentions of the Ding family and the Luan family to surrender to Cheng are about to come out.
Although the Ding family and the Luan family have their own goals and calculations for taking refuge in the Zhao family, it is undeniable that once these three doors join forces, I am afraid that if you look at Yunzhou, you will not be able to find an enemy.
Be quiet.
The room was surprisingly quiet, everyone was tense, and even the sound of breathing was well controlled, for fear that they would disturb Zhao Guiting's thoughts.
"That's it. ”
After a while, Zhao Guiting, who was the focus of everyone, finally spoke: "Although my Zhao family and the Fang family are in-laws, they are not of the same clan after all, so the affairs of the Fang family, I don't care too deeply, as for the death of my wife, I want to correct the head of the Ding family, Haoyue She died of a recurrence of the old disease, as for my son Shangqing's injury, it is just a small fight among young people, a trivial matter, there is no need to talk so highly, therefore, please don't spread rumors!"
As soon as the words came out, everyone frowned, and waves set off in their hearts.
These words deceived outsiders, but who in the audience didn't know that Fang Haoyue was killed by Ji Haotian.
And Zhao Guiting also admitted that Zhao Shangqing's injury was related to Ji Haotian, and he actually said that children fight, let me ask whose children fight, will directly cut off other people's arms?
What's more, Zhao Shangqing is not only a person from Zhao Valve, but also a relative, the son of the master of the door, and now that he has suffered such a big humiliation, Zhao Guiting actually passed without mentioning it in black and white?
But no matter what, Zhao Guiting's answer has already expressed his attitude very clearly, he doesn't want to investigate the cause of Fang Haoyue's death, let alone make enemies with the Li family and Ji Haotian.
"Master Zhao, what are you talking about?!"
Luan Qiuhan was full of confidence, thinking that with the Ding family and the Luan family, the Zhao family would definitely agree to his and Ding Jinchong's request and work together to fight the thief, but he didn't expect that Zhao Guiting actually chose to retreat.
You must know that this crusade against Ji Haotian, in addition to allowing Sanmen to avenge the blood sea of deep revenge, there is also a Li family.
The Li family already has strong assets, and now they have eaten the Fang family, as long as the three points can successfully crusade against Ji Haotian, the Li family will naturally not be spared, and when the time comes, this large amount of assets should also be divided by the three clans, and the Zhao family must be the biggest vested interest.
Therefore, Luan Qiuhan racked his brains and couldn't understand why Zhao Guiting would give up this big fortune that could be won as long as he stretched out his hand.
"The two heads of the family, first of all, thank you for taking me as a bad old man, but after all, I am old, my physical and mental strength are not as good as before, my body is deteriorating, and I don't have the heart of my youth, so I really have no interest in this matter. ”
Zhao Guiting said apologetically to Ding Jinchong and Luan Qiuhan, paused, and continued: "As the saying goes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, although our six valves have reached the top in Yunzhou, and have also controlled Yunzhou for so many years, and have never met opponents, but Ji Haotian has already made it clear that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and has repeatedly provoked authority, to put it bluntly, he still has too little experience, but it is undeniable that this person is indeed at the top of his life, so the two heads of the family also listened to the advice of the old man, and if they can bear it, they should bear it." ”
After speaking, Zhao Guiting sighed and leaned back in his chair.
His words sounded full of concern from the seniors for the juniors, but if he tasted it carefully, he had already lifted the six valves to the sky, and for Ji Haotian's strength, he only blamed him for his young edge, without mentioning his strength at all, which created an illusion for people, as if as long as the six valves were willing to fight head-on, it would be easy to get rid of Ji Haotian.
Zhao Guiting said this, also with his own careful thoughts, because he knew that the Li family had no fear because of the support of Ji Haotian behind him, and Ji Haotian was the support of Kyushu Pavilion.
Facing an opponent who was so strong enough to sweep Kyushu, how could Zhao Guiting dare to make a mistake?
Ding Jinchong and Luan Qiuhan have hatred in their hearts, but Zhao Guiting's hatred for Ji Haotian will definitely not be less than them, or even surpass.
It is precisely because of this that Zhao Guiting is still arching the fire while withdrawing, but he does not mention Ji Haotian's true identity.
Luan Qiuhan and Ding Jinchong wanted the Zhao family to join the gang and deal with the Li family, this matter was extremely risky for Zhao Guiting, but if he took a step back and urged Ding and Luan to join forces to deal with Ji Haotian, the benefits could be doubled.
First of all, if Luan Qiuhan and Ding Jinchong really get rid of Ji Haotian and the Li family by luck, and their own troubles are removed, it will naturally be regarded as a big revenge, and when the time comes, with the power of the Zhao family, even if they forcibly annex the remaining properties of the Li family, I am afraid that others will dare not speak out.
And once the two of them fail, they will not be retaliated against by Ji Haotian, and when the time comes, they can also let Zhao Valve plant some puppets in the world to annex the business and assets of these two families.
Such a plan that kills two birds with one stone without spending a single soldier, but can maximize the benefits, among the six valves, I am afraid that only an old fox like Zhao Guiting can think of it.
"The head of the Zhao family, all kinds of changes, the six valves complement each other, it is because everyone is united with each other, so that all the other forces that want to covet Yunzhou can be kept out, so as to become bigger and bigger, and now Ji Haotian is our current crisis, do you really want to stay out of the matter and sit on the well?"
Ding Jinchong saw that Zhao Guiting did not agree to join the gang, and immediately became impatient, and began to persuade him with emotion and reason, after all, among the six valves, the Zhao family is the most powerful, if the Zhao family does not participate, then their alliance will be at least half of the strength.
"Yes, Old Zhao, do you want to think about it carefully, now this thief surnamed Ji has already ridden on top of several of our heads to, is it bearable, which is unbearable?!"
Although Luan Qiuhan was impulsive and irritable, he also understood the strength of the Zhao family, and naturally looked forward to Zhao Guiting being able to join the gang.
"Forget it, I have made up my mind about this matter, don't persuade the two family heads anymore!"
Zhao Guiting waved his hand slightly, and then got up: "I am old, my energy is limited, I sit with a few family heads, my body is already tired, since I have joined forces to fight for thieves, I Zhao Valve has decided not to participate in it, and it is not beneficial to bother too much, so the old man will take a step forward first! Please also ask a few people to stay, and the old man can do it himself!"
Zhao Guiting was polite, but his actions were resolute, and after deciding to leave, he didn't give anyone else a chance to greet him at all, and left the banquet hall with his personal guards without looking back.
"Whew!"
When Ding Jinchong saw Zhao Guiting leaving, he suddenly raised his head, drank a glass of spirits, and then gasped.
He originally thought that Ji Haotian had angered the Zhao family several times before, and had killed Luan Qiuhan's younger brother before, as long as the three gate valves who hated the same enemy joined forces, the Li family and Ji Haotian would inevitably be in trouble, and at that time, the Zhou family could only participate in it in order not to be isolated, so the formation of the four-valve thief alliance today should have been easy, but he didn't expect it to be so unpleasant.
"Huh. ”
Zhou Tianming couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw Ding Jinchong's angry appearance.
"What are you laughing at!"
Ding Jinchong felt the endless ridicule in Zhou Tianming's laughter, and immediately questioned sharply.
Zhou Tianming's posture relaxed: "Of course I laughed at you for not being able to measure yourself, and actually wanted to trick Zhao Guiting, an old fox, to stand in the same boat with you, let me ask, since he can lead the Zhao family to sit firmly in the position of the head of the six valves, how can he be played by you, the down-and-out family master who almost wiped out the clan." ”
"Bang!"
Ding Jinchong slapped the table, and immediately glared angrily: "Zhou Tianming, don't deceive people too much!"
"Huh. ”
Zhou Tianming smiled but did not speak.
Luan Qiuhan looked sideways and saw Zhou Tianming's calm face, and he was not angry, but his eyes immediately lit up: "The head of the Zhou family has said so much, I'm afraid it's not groundless, could it be that you have any good plans?"
