Chapter 140: The Spirit Snake Reappears
A simple and elegant tavern, the boss saw that it was the county magistrate who came here, and he was overjoyed to welcome him, and hurriedly ordered Xiao Er to prepare the best wine.
After entering the private room with Enron, he instructed the boss not to let anyone disturb him.
Soon, there were three or five side dishes in the private room, a jar of aged old wine, the wine was mellow and rich, which was the greatest enjoyment for people like Li Changsheng.
After being seated, Li Changsheng poured a full amount of wine for An Ran, but heard An Ran say: "I don't drink." ”
"This official knows that the wine of our Wu County is not more precious than the famous wine of your Tusi family, but you don't need to say such an excuse to prevaricate me, right?"
"That's not what I meant."
"This official knows what you mean, you are a woman, you are alone, if you are drunk, it is good to say that you are not drunk, if you are drunk. Wrongfully delighted or tarnished his innocence, but he lost his wife and his soldiers, right? ”
An Ran didn't speak, she looked at Li Changsheng with a serious face, although it was a little unpleasant, but it was a fact.
Li Changsheng picked up the wine bowl by himself. took a drink and said, "Don't worry, this official is not a decent man, but he is not a greedy and lustful snake and mouse villain, if you refuse to drink, then it is casual." ”
Enron smiled. In her stunning face, the corners of her mouth pursed a charming arc, as if she was stimulated by him, picked up the wine bowl, drank it all, and said, "I finally know why the people of Wu County take such a fancy to Master Li so much." ”
"Why?"
"Isn't it true that you do the opposite, that you do what others dare not do, and that you do what others fear?" An Ran asked rhetorically.
There is some truth in this, no one in Wu County dared to offend the Zha family and the Yang family, but Li Changsheng did so, and he lost the support of the two families, but he won the hearts of the people.
Li Changsheng waved his hand, signaling that the matter would stop, and he didn't want to listen to it anymore, how he did it, he didn't need to be evaluated by others, and said, "An Tusi, tell me about your intentions?" ”
"My purpose? Master Li should have already guessed, so why bother asking? An Ran smiled and said that she was a smart person, and smart people have their own way of speaking.
Li Changsheng smiled knowingly and said, "You want Wu County to be incorporated into your An family, so as to form an internal and external attack on the Zha family, so that they can't take care of it before and after, and take the opportunity to devour them, yes or no?" ”
"Yes, that's exactly what I had in mind."
"Originally?"
An Ran nodded and said, "Before I met Master Li, I had the confidence to persuade you to join our family, but after seeing me, my self-confidence was shaken, I knew that you were a monster who did not yield to anyone, even if I had a bad tongue, it would be difficult to persuade you, so I changed my mind." ”
"Tell me about it?" Interested, Li Changsheng asked affectionately.
"I have decided not to include you in my command anymore, even if I have the ability to persuade you, but I dare not guarantee that you are in control, you are an unstable factor, rather than being accommodated, it is safer to coexist."
Through a short understanding, An Ran knew that Li Changsheng was definitely not an ordinary person, he was a person with a big heart, great wisdom, and great talent, and the ghost knew if he would rebel against the An family. Finally became his retainer?!
"Coexistence? Does An Tusi think too highly of this official, right? Li Changsheng asked rhetorically.
"It's not that you look high, but adults definitely have such skills." An Ran said so firmly, without a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
"The people of my Wu County add up to only more than 8,000 people, and the brave people of Wu County are less than 1,000 people, compared to the people in your Tusi Village, I am afraid that it is less than ten and one, if you join forces, I am afraid that the first to be destroyed is not you, but Wu County, An Tusi's calculation is really exquisite."
An Ran didn't think so, she picked up the wine, poured it for Li Changsheng, pointed her fingers at something on the table, and said: "Our family is in the Wuzhong area, which is not a hero, not as strong as the wealthy families in Chang'an City, but in Chang'an, we also have our own connections." ”
"According to the news from Chang'an, a few months ago, the son of the Tang King suddenly left Chang'an and disappeared, and the imperial court blocked his whereabouts.
An Ran spoke cautiously, and his eyes secretly observed the change in Li Changsheng's expression.
Li Changsheng calmly entered. didn't cause any waves, and said very flatly: "What do you want to say?" You won't guess that I'm the son of King Tang, right? ”
"Isn't it?"
"If this official is the prince, how can he come to this remote Wu County to be an official? At least you have to be a assassin or something, and if this matter is true, this official will definitely send troops to destroy the Zha family and the Yang family, how can it be so troublesome. Self-inflicted? Li Changsheng said.
The news of Li Changsheng's official status as an official to the outside world has already ordered the courtiers to remain silent, and anyone who dares to reveal the whereabouts of King Changping will be a big crime of killing his head.
Therefore, except for the courtiers and a few well-known relatives, the outside world knew nothing about Li Changsheng's traces.
"That makes sense."
Enron admitted. But there are still suspicions, according to the information she received, it is not only that, she also learned that the champion of this martial arts test is called 'Li Changsheng', and the name of the current King of Changping is also 'Li Changsheng', and he is still called 'Li Changsheng'. Is it all too much of a coincidence?
"Since Master Li is not the king of Changping, then I am also a lot more relieved, after all, the big man from Chang'an City, how dare we little toasts offend." An Ran said with a little deep meaning.
"That kind of high-ranking big man is not something we can discuss, this official is just a small official with sesame mung beans. Don't talk about the prince, even if you haven't met in the history of assassination, how can you be the king of Changping, haha!! Li Changsheng said, "This topic will stop here, let's talk about how to deal with the Zha family, right?" ”
Li Changsheng didn't want to say any more. An Ran also knew how to grasp the proportions, and changed his words and said: "Presumably, the adults have already understood the beginning of the eight toasts in Wuzhong? ”
"I know a little bit about it, except for the Zha family, the other seven toasts are separated and independent from the Zha family."
"Yes, exactly." An Ran said, "Although the Zha family is in the middle of the road. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, although the Zha family is not as good as before, its family background is already incomparable to the seven toasts of our family. ”
"And we settled down quickly and did not agree with the Zha family, both of them wanted to devour each other, and they fought for so many years, but to no avail. But a few years ago, something happened in the Zha family, which completely panicked our family. ”
"What's the matter?"
Li Changsheng knew that An Ran was a strange woman, but judging her expression, he was unconsciously moved, thinking that this matter must not be simple.
"I don't know where the Za family got a terrible big man. With his help, the Zha family gradually recovered and became the strongest family among the eight toasts. An Ran said, "Over the years, if Zack hadn't been a can't afford Adou, otherwise, my An family would have been the meat of his mouth." ”
"Listen to you like this, what kind of big man is he who has such ability. Can you pick up a vulgar guy like Zach? ”
Zack's mediocrity, after several rounds of testing, can be regarded as a deep experience, at first, he was still doubting how this kind of person could become a Zajia toast, it turned out that behind it was the guidance of a master.
"Zach is mediocre. But Zaber is very smart, of course, the most important thing is that he has the guidance of a big man behind him. Enron said, "No one has seen his true face in this big man, not even Zack, according to the news from other Tusi families." This man always wears a ghost-headed mask. ”
"Ghost Head Mask!!"
Li Changsheng's body was stunned suddenly, like a lightning strike, he heard the terrible news, and the three words that came to his mind "ghost-faced man", the person who had captured Long'er.
Since the Great Martial Arts Test, this person has disappeared. The murder of the Goguryeo prince is likely to be committed by the 'Spirit Snake' organization, but there is no sufficient evidence to prove it.
"My lord, do you know him?"
An Ran understood something from his performance, and looking at the change in his expression, it should be acquaintance.
Li Changsheng shook his head and said, "The official is not sure if you and I are talking about the same person, but the official knows him and does have this ability." ”
The ghost-faced man is far better than Li Changsheng in terms of cultivation and resourcefulness, and supporting people like Zack can be regarded as a trivial matter for him, and it can't be simpler.
"It seems that the adult has a grudge against this person?" An Ran said with a smile.
"How so?"
"I just mentioned the image of this person, and the adult was stunned suddenly, and between his eyebrows and eyes, there was a murderous aura, if it wasn't for the enemy. How so? An Ran said.
"Yes, I do have a great enmity with this man, and he has captured the love of my life, so I must find him no matter what."
An Ran looked at Li Changsheng and said, "I didn't expect that Master Li was actually an infatuated man?" ”
Say whatever she wants. Li Changsheng doesn't make any arguments, whether he is an infatuated man or a negative man, as long as he can, he will come out of the dragon, even if it is at the cost of his life.
"This official agrees to join forces with the An family, but I have one condition."
"On what terms?"
"I don't care what kind of despicable means you used before, but after that, as long as it doesn't touch the bottom line of my goodness, I can give you some help, if you disobey, don't blame me for turning my face and denying people."
"No problem." Enron readily agreed.
Bang!!
At this moment, a loud noise came from a distance, which alarmed the entire Wu County.
Li Changsheng and An Ran hurriedly ran out and asked, "What happened?" ”
"Back to my lord, it's the mountain in front of you that has collapsed!!"
