Chapter 172: Clever Calculation
The sky was dark, and Zhang Ping returned to Zhang's manor.
dragged his tired body into the living room of the main building, and saw a person sitting on the sofa.
Looking up, Zhang Ping couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Uncle Li, why are you here?"
Seeing Zhang Ping, Li Tie stood up and said respectfully: "Little master, I'm waiting for you." ”
"Wait for me?" Zhang Ping asked suspiciously.
Li Tie nodded and said, "I see that you haven't come back, so I'm a little worried." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Ping's heart crossed a warm current.
He smiled knowingly and said gently, "Hard work, Uncle Li." ”
"Looks like you must have known what happened last night, right?"
Li Tie nodded, and said with a straight face: "Such a big thing happened in the underworld, I naturally heard about it. ”
"What do you think about this?" asked Zhang Ping humbly.
How to say that Li Tie is also the chief housekeeper of the Zhang family, as Zhang Shixiong's right-hand man, he is naturally capable.
Maybe he has something original.
Li Tie naturally saw Zhang Ping's thoughts.
He smiled slightly and said, "Little Master, I don't think this matter is so simple. ”
Zhang Ping nodded sympathetically and motioned for him to continue.
"I know something about Huang Guojun. When he was in the underworld before, his power was not as good as Liu Laoqi. It's just that later he got the help of nobles, successfully washed his white, and began to transfer to the business on the white road, and now except for some gray accidents, it stands to reason that he should have nothing to do with the underworld. ”
After listening to Li Tie's words, Zhang Ping keenly captured a word.
Elegant!
Hearing this word several times, Zhang Ping couldn't help but have a strong curiosity about this noble person in the mouths of everyone.
"Uncle Li, who is this so-called nobleman?" asked Zhang Ping.
I saw Li Tie slowly shook his head and said, "I'm afraid only Huang Guojun knows about this." ”
Zhang Ping frowned, and said in surprise: "Even our Zhang family can't find out?"
Li Tie glanced at Zhang Ping meaningfully and nodded.
Zhang Ping was shocked in his heart, and his face was uncertain.
Even the Zhang family can't be found, so there are only two possibilities.
One is that this so-called noble man is meticulous and does not leave the slightest clue.
The second is that this noble man is powerful and not under the Zhang family.
Obviously, this first scenario is extremely unlikely. Even the most meticulous person can't fail to find a clue. The second option is very likely.
If there is any family in this Kyoto city that can be compared with the Zhang family, I am afraid that there is only ......
Thinking of this, Zhang Ping's face changed, and he suddenly looked up at Li Tie.
I saw Li Tiezheng looking at him with a smile.
"Why are they doing this?"
The words of doubt blurted out, and Zhang Ping's heart sank.
Seeing that Zhang Ping thought of the key point so quickly, Li Tie was also very satisfied in his heart.
He sighed and said slowly: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the world is shouting for profit." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Ping's brows tightened.
"Little master, our Zhang family has been at the top of the hundred schools in Kyoto for many years, so naturally some people are red and want to replace them. Li Tie said earnestly.
Thinking of the truth behind this, Zhang Ping's heart was heavy.
"Of course, this is just the speculation of the old slave, and the little master should not take it too seriously. ”
Seeing that Zhang Ping's face was a little ugly, Li Tie couldn't help but feel relieved.
Zhang Ping nodded with a calm face and didn't say anything more.
Let's hope so!
At this time, he thought of something again, and asked: "Uncle Li, this Huang Guojun has finally been whitewashed, and then mixed with the underworld, won't it be a repeat of the past?"
"Little master, everything is not black and white. There's also a gray area in between. Huang Guojun is whitewashed, but that doesn't mean he can't find someone to take his place in the underworld. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Ping's heart moved, and he said hesitantly: "You mean, he will support a puppet and take care of the underworld for him?"
Li Tie nodded with a smile and praised: "The little young master is smart. ”
After receiving the reply, Zhang Ping couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
It seems that this Huang Guojun is indeed planning a lot!
However, this matter is not something he should think about, and someone has a headache.
Immediately, he shook his brain and threw these thoughts out of his head, and Zhang Ping only felt exhausted.
The events of this night were really exhausting to him.
"Okay, Uncle Li, I'm back in the room, you can rest early. Zhang Ping smiled tiredly.
Li Tie nodded and watched Zhang Ping leave.
Bidding farewell to Li Tie, Zhang Ping returned to his room.
Lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Could it really be that he is behind all this?
Thinking of that gentle smiling face, Zhang Ping frowned.
Before he knew it, he fell asleep groggily.
While he was sleeping, Kyoto was still bustling.
An open and secret battle is going on in an orderly manner......
By the time Zhang Ping woke up, it was already evening.
Looking at the dusk through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he came to his senses.
He got up and stretched and shook his head, but he still felt groggy.
Sure enough, staying up late is still too hurtful.
After a day's sleep, his chest was already hungry and pressed against his back.
Touching his stomach, he walked towards the restaurant.
At this time, several servants were waiting there early.
Seeing Zhang Ping's figure, they hurriedly bent down and greeted, "Little master." ”
Zhang Ping bowed slightly, and then urged: "Hurry up and make me something to eat, I'm dying of hunger." ”
I saw that the servant at the head smiled and replied, "Little master, I have already prepared it for you, you can wait a minute." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Ping couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Ready for a long time?
"How do you know I'm coming for dinner?" he asked, confused.
"An hour ago, Steward Li came to order, he asked us to prepare food, and said that you will wake up in a while, young master. The servant at the head replied respectfully.
Hearing this, Zhang Ping's heart couldn't help but secretly admire.
Sure enough, he is worthy of being the big housekeeper of the Zhang family, and he is comprehensive in everything!
Before the table, the meal is served.
Smelling the tempting aroma, Zhang Ping couldn't help but move his index finger.
He picked up his chopsticks and devoured them.
The maid ran to the kitchen and brought out a steaming bowl of chicken soup.
"Little master, this is chicken soup stewed with several precious medicinal herbs to replenish your body. ”
After taking a bite of rice into his mouth, Zhang Ping asked vaguely, "This is also what Steward Li ordered?"
"Yes. ”
At this time, Zhang Ping even felt that it was not enough to describe Li Tie.
It should be said that it ...... Clever calculation!
Even this can be thought of, what else can it be if it is not a miracle calculation?
