Just when Shen Gui sighed, regretting that his dream of 'inheriting the inheritance' was shattered, the door of the wing room was opened by the door, and outside the door was Li Deng with Li Fu and Shan Qingquan with a wooden stick, and the three of them walked in together.

As soon as Li Fu entered the door, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to lift Shen Gui's quilt, wanting to take a closer look at what kind of wound Shen Gui had suffered. Before he thought that his hand had not touched the edge of the bed, Liu Banxian, who was sitting in front of the bed, stretched out an index finger and gently pressed it on the back of his hand......

What followed was a force that Li Fu couldn't resist at all, and even half of his body was suppressed by the huge force coming from the back of his hand, and before the whole person could figure out what was going on, he was already squatting at Liu Banxian's feet.

"Hey, hey, I said, what's going on? Why did you come up and dig out people's quilts? Is this the rule in your prime minister's house? ”

Li Fu lifted a breath of true qi, and originally wanted to use his inner breath to collapse the mountain-like index finger on the back of his hand, but he didn't expect that the true qi had just come out of the dantian and suddenly turned into invisible......

As soon as Li Deng saw that the two of them were just about to speak, Liu Banxian had already raised his finger, and then pointed at Shan Qingquan:

"You know who I am, right?"

Shan Qingquan didn't say a word, and his head was like a chicken pecking rice.

"Then you should also talk about it, the old man of the province is troublesome!"

Shan Qingquan obediently threw away the crutches, sat on the ground, dragged a stump leg to Li Fu's ear, and whispered a few words, the old man and the crippled hurriedly saluted, supported each other and ran away.

Li Deng frowned as he looked at the two distant figures, and he was a little more wary of this old man dressed as a gentleman in his heart.

"Li Fu knew that you were in the study, and he was also injured, so he didn't show up...... And Qingquan was surrounded by them and stabbed him in the thigh and couldn't move, but fortunately, the other party's target was the old man and me, so he didn't kill him in a hurry. Shen Gui...... How are your injuries? ”

Shen Gui immediately lifted the corner of the quilt, then lifted his middle coat again, and said with bared teeth:

"See for yourself, fortunately, the knife face is a little wet, and only the iron projectile wiped off a piece of flesh, otherwise my little life would really be in suspense!"

Although Shen Gui's 'gunshot wound' was cleaned up by Sun Baizhi in time, it was still a little charred, and the skin and flesh at the wound were still a little turned out, although it was not life-threatening, but he knew that he must be enduring the torment at this time.

Li Deng frowned after only one glance, and personally sat on the edge of Shen Gui's bed and closed the quilt for him.

"You are here to recuperate in a down-to-earth manner, the two-day gambling house, the old man will go through it himself."

"This move is not appropriate, you have such a noble status, there are definitely not a few eyeliners and piles inside and outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, in the open and in the dark, you will go to the Shuangtian Dart Bureau in person, not to mention that it is very likely to be assassinated again; Besides, I'm afraid that your front foot has just stepped out of the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the pigeons on the back foot have already flown to the backyard of the Double Sky Casino. ”

When Li Deng heard this, he also looked helpless. He rubbed his hands together and said to Shen Gui with shame:

"I just heard Qingquan say that when you went to the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion for the third time, you asked where Shi'an was, presumably because you didn't trust him anymore; And over the years, in order to avoid suspicion, the old man has put on the surface that he can do things, and there is only one person who can do things; And if it is for the sake of this thing on the bright side, it is a pity to use a dark line...... Hehe, it's ridiculous that the old man has been cautious all his life, originally to avoid suspicion, but now at this critical juncture, there is not even a person under his hands who can do things. ”

When Shen Gui heard Li Deng's emotion, he said disappreciatively:

"There's nothing wrong with you doing this, otherwise their Yan family father and son wouldn't sit idly by and watch you be in a position and hold financial power for many years; After all, in their eyes, the silver bag in your hand is much more important than the gun in my grandfather's hand; And then again, if there are many heads, when will they be human and when will they become ghosts, who can say well? ”

Li Deng only thought that Shen Gui was comforting himself, and he didn't dwell too much on this issue, but asked about Wan Changning:

"Then why do you doubt Shi'an? He has treated me like a master and a father for more than 20 years, and he has grown up under my teaching since he was a child, and I have been friends with my father for a long time. In this prime minister's house, except for Li Fu, the old man's most trusted person is him......

Shen Guiyi waved his hand, pointed at Liu Banxian and said:

"Since I left, there have been more than 100 assassins of all sizes in the Shen Mansion, and thanks to my master, I have been able to ensure the integrity of the people in the Mansion. On the eve of my return to Beijing, Liu Zhi, the young supervisor of the Imperial Horse Prison, personally came to my house at night, intending to assassinate Yan Qinghong, the second prince who was recuperating in the cold house. According to his confession, the prince should have instigated the incident behind his back...... Don't you have any ideas when you hear this? ”

Li Deng didn't look surprised when he heard this, but just reached out and stroked the long hair under his chin, and said in a calm tone:

"Taking advantage of the chaos inside and outside the Youbei Third Road, to get rid of the biggest stumbling block on his road to inheriting the throne, this approach is also reasonable, and from the perspective of the method, it is also my nephew's style of acting; And the reason why you suspect Shi'an, according to the old man's guess, you should think that the heavenly fire in Beilan Palace should also be the work of the Imperial Horse Prison: do you think that they killed Concubine Lan Niangniang first, because they believed that only Concubine Lan could change the attitude of the Mobei people, and could give Yan Qinghong a great credit in the court, and the hearts and popularity of the people gained were even more immeasurable...... And the reason why Shi'an is in it...... The old man understood, do you think it was Shi'an who leaked the truth to Yan Day, which caused Yan Yan to burn Beilan Palace first, and then sent Liu Zhi to take care of Yan Qinghong's 'tail'. However, before making a conclusion, the old man would like to ask you: Do you have any conclusive evidence in your hands now? ”

When Li Deng said this, he also felt a little speechless. However, he didn't explain again, but after he finished speaking, he sighed and shook his head.

Hearing this, Liu Banxian stood up, shook his waist, and said impatiently:

"I said Li Deng, Li Deng, aren't you annoyed? How can you say that you are also the prime minister of the dynasty and the head of the Dongyou Li family, is there any evidence that these chicken and dog fragments are so important to you? ”

As soon as Fang saw that Li Fu had suffered a loss, Li Deng understood how much weight this talker's subordinates had. Hearing his slightly disrespectful accusation, he only sighed:

"Hi...... I, the prime minister, sound like a rich errand under one man and above ten thousand; But in fact, it is far from being as easy as the world thinks. When the old man was young, he already had some talents in the world, whether it was Nankang or Beiyan, he had promised the old man to be a high-ranking official, and even invited him to the prince of the prince; But I finally gave up all of that and returned to this bitter cold place as an official; And what is the purpose of seeking the near and far in this way? is all because the old man wants to change the land of Youbei with his own hands, so that all the people can live a stable and prosperous life; Let the people of the entire Youbei Three Roads, from the king to the people, have orders to follow and laws to follow, and become a real paradise; Shen Gui, when I was young, I was much sharper than you are now! I even want to make Youbei Sanlu more rich and enlightened than Nankang...... Today, dozens of years have been flicking a finger...... Hey, after half a lifetime, Youbei Third Road is still tossing and turning in the quagmire, and I haven't made an inch......"

After confessing his thoughts to Shen Gui, Li Deng looked at Liu Banxian again and said:

"If, as you just said, I am now in the position of prime minister, I can ignore the rules and act according to my heart, this is not a lie. Today's Lee Deng must have such ability; But if even I, the prime minister, do not act according to the law, then the laws and regulations that I have formulated with my own hands will naturally become a joke. Hey, but now it seems that from top to bottom of this Youbei Third Road, it seems that except for the old man, there is no second fool who will take those things written on the 'waste paper' as a thing...... Half of your life's work has turned to dust! But even so, the old man can't set this precedent, you should think of me, an old and dumb man, guarding the soul of my broken dreams! ”

Shen Gui never thought that Li Deng, the prime minister who was regarded by everyone as the biggest conspirator in the Three Roads of Youbei, still had a pure heart at this time! And the dream in Li Deng's heart is full of classicist romantic feelings: he actually wants to create a utopian ideal country with his own hands in such a feudal period!

Under such complex emotions, Shen Gui was speechless for a while. He exhausted all his efforts, but he could not find the angle and words that could comfort Li Deng, and finally his annoyance turned into a sigh.

After Shen Gui let out a long sigh, he lifted the quilt and middle coat on his body:

"Looks like I'm going to have to do this bad guy! But if it weren't for the protection of you old characters, I'm afraid that my portrait of Shen Gui and the official document of sea fishing would have already been pasted on the gates of the large and small cities in the northern part of the country! Second Sun, you come and help me wrap the wound tighter, and I'll go to the prince's shop in person! ”

Before Li Deng could speak, Liu Banxian first laughed:

"Good boy, good temper! You don't have to be nervous, this trip to the treasure game, the half-immortal will personally accompany him on a journey! The old man also wants to see how big a goblin is hidden in the muddy water of Youbei Third Road! ”

Half an hour later, Liu Banxian carried the hexagram banner and stood side by side with Shen Gui at the door of the Shuangtian Gambling House.

"Young Master Shen, let's meet again! Hey, this fate is fate, last time you left in a hurry, Lao He and I didn't stop you! You know why? It's all because at this moment, there is only one place to have fun and pastime in Fengjing City! Where else can you go if you don't come here to play? What's wrong? What are you going to play this time around? Why don't we have some fun on the first floor? Or do you want to play something fresh on the second floor? ”

This middle-aged man full of kind words is the 'old man' Lao He who Shen Gui didn't think of last time! Now seeing Shen return and return, he is even more enthusiastic! Of course, this self-proclaimed Lao He has never dealt with Shen Gui; The reason why it is so familiar is completely because of the rules in this gambling house: whoever attracts customers can draw a large amount of commission mercury in the other party's 'gambling and consumption'.

And his rhetoric and style are naturally all business words and rivers and lakes.

Seeing him so enthusiastic, Shen Gui also smiled very politely, and then used his right hand to make a six-character comparison, put his thumb on his lips, and raised his little finger high into the sky......

This old He looked at Shen Gui's gesture, and also smiled ambiguously:

"I didn't expect you, Young Master Shen, to like this too, that's really the right place! If someone else is looking for it, I don't even ask about the small one, and I will just bang it! But you, Young Master Shen, are a rare person who understands, and he is a first-class high-roller, so he can't hide it from anyone! This is the best A Furong in the whole Youbei and even in the whole Huayu, but it is in the private room on the third floor of our Double Heaven Casino! Let's go inside, and the little one will lead the way in front of you! ”

Lao He said polite words, and stretched out his hand to let go of the richly dressed Shen Gui. After that, he immediately sank his face, and blocked Liu Banxian, who was carrying a hexagram banner behind him:

"Go, go, what kind of thing are you, don't you have a point in your heart? Straight eyebrows just rushed in...... We're a gambling house! No one counts! ”
