Body 847 Saleh's ambitions
"What about your people?"
"My people are my henchmen, and they know everything about me." Li Hong shrugged his shoulders and said lightly in the face of Saleh's dissatisfaction with Wei Tuqi.
When Saleh was on the boat, he was annoyed by Wei Tu Qi for a night, and now he wants to put Wei Tu Qi together when he seizes the opportunity, but every time he can easily resolve it by Li Hong, which makes Saleh can only glared at Captain Tu Qi a few times helplessly, as if to say, you wait for me, sooner or later one day to clean you up.
On the contrary, Yu Tuqi ignored him, only when his eyes occasionally intersected, he glanced at Saleh who warned him with his eyes, and then looked away lightly, as if he had forgotten everything about the festival between the two.
"What the hell is going on, and it's so mysterious, can you say it now?" Saleh no longer cares about Yu Tu Qi, Hua Meng and Cheetah, of course he knows, and the Black Iron Tower are Li Hong's absolute henchmen.
"Pay attention to your attitude, I don't want to say anything about your attitude. And...... I've lost a lot of money for you! Don't you think you should compensate me for such a large gold chest, which is full of all kinds of treasures, but because of you, I cruelly refused? "Old God Li Hong is playing with Saleh by himself, and he doesn't look anxious at all.
"The other nobles I have eaten a lot in the past few days, you have seen all over the world, not to mention how much gold and silver treasures you have received, it is this beautiful woman, you have not received a hundred or eighty, right? You are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, can you not be so greedy! Be careful, you can't bring this wealth out of my big food, and it will end up in vain! Saleh glanced at Li Hong disdainfully and warned: "Also, Yeyue already knows that you have collected a lot of beauties from my big food!" ”
"So what? After all, if Yeyue wants to live in Datang in the future, there must be a few maids from her hometown around you, so that you won't feel alone abroad, causing homesickness. Li Hong didn't care if Yeyue knew it or not.
Even if Yeyue knew, with Yeyue's character, she wouldn't think that she would fall in love with those women, after all, Yeyue was extremely conceited about her appearance, and believed that no one in Dashi could take Li Hong's heart from her side.
"This is 10,000 dinars of gold, which is converted into the silver of your great food, although it is not enough for 100,000 taels, but it is not too much. If the news you tell me is useful, and I don't know the news, I don't mind giving you another 90,000 dinars, even if it's the dowry of the night moon. Saleh lightly took out the bill of exchange that had only been circulated among the nobles and learned from the Tang Dynasty and put it on the table between the two of them and said.
"Good intentions, but it's a pity you're going to be disappointed." Li Hong gave Saleh a thumbs up, and then handed the bill of exchange to Hua Meng, and said lightly: "Go and see if it's true or not, you can redeem it, and then use these gold coins to pave the floor, and I will also be a local tyrant." ”
Saleh's face was full of black lines, this was the gold coin of his palace, which he had saved with great difficulty, and it was just taken away by someone and paved into the floor under his feet.
"You'll have to tell me I don't know before I'll give you this money." Saleh is not stupid, or rather, he has no intention of giving this money to Li Hong at all.
And Li Hong also saw through him, so he gave him a thumbs up and praised him for his good intentions.
Because, no matter what Li Hong said for a while, Saleh could pretend that he already knew about it, and then take back his gold coins.
So the gold coin placed on the table, for Li Hong, is an invisible opener that can be seen and eaten.
"It was your father who sent someone to assassinate Ali of Hawariji, and this is a secret that all nobles know, right?"
"So what? But apparently Ali died in the revolt of the army under his own control, and had nothing to do with my father. Saleh's eyes tightened, and his hand on the gold coin unconsciously loosened.
"Of course, you can deny that other nobles who are on the side of your royal family can also help you tell the ignorant people that Ali died in the rebellion of his own army, which is understandable, but ...... Would the Hawariji family think so? A sneer appeared on the corner of Li Hong's mouth, and then he continued: "There are two main people in your direct rivals in Dashi, one is the Sultan of the Hashemite family, and the other is the Hawariji family, after Ali's death, he quickly took charge of Ali's eldest son of the family: Hassan. ”
"What do you want to say? Did they meet you? What exactly did you talk about? Saleh's hand tightened, but he had to let go of his hand weakly, watching the 10,000 gold coins being taken away by Li Hong.
"The rest of the 90,000 gold coins can be owed first, but once Yeyue leaves for Datang, you must give these gold coins to her immediately."
"Okay, I promise you. But what exactly did you talk about with Hassan? Saleh doesn't care about 100,000 gold coins at all now, he cares more about what his direct competitor has talked about with Li Hong than about gold coins.
After all, if he can inherit the Great Food Monarch and only 100,000 gold coins, don't you want as many as you want? If you really can't, you can also send an army to continue the crusade to plunder the huge wealth of the Tang Dynasty that makes you blush and makes people go crazy.
Even if he can't plunder the new wealth of Taiyi City in the Tang Dynasty, as long as he can bring back their silk, embroidery, tea, papermaking, porcelain and other crafts back to Dashi, it will be a huge wealth for him.
Now these things of Datang are in Da Shi, and the Da Tang people are completely in the hands of the people of Da Tang to buy and sell the finished products, and the huge business opportunities and profits are all Da Tang's, and there is no way to let the merchants of Da Shi get even a small cup of soup.
Li Hong looked at Saleh, who looked a little impatient, and said in a low voice: "They plan to return Jiling City to my Datang, he told me that their army is now stuck in Jiling City, as long as I don't cooperate with the royal family to jointly suppress them, and other things don't need our help, their family is enough to make the royal family pay a terrible price." ”
"Did they say they wanted to do anything?"
"I don't know, I didn't say. Because I didn't see Hassan, I met his brother Hussein, and I can get some useful information from his words, which is that they are going to retaliate against you, you know, their family is very powerful. By the way, I'm a little angry at you when I say this, their family is very powerful, but the Hashemite family and the Kordo family are not decorations, aren't they afraid of competing with the royal family, so that the two families can benefit? Li Hong looked at Saleh, who looked at Saleh with a cloudy expression, and asked curiously.
And Li Hong's words are also half-truths, which not only contain the conditions for Hussey to negotiate with him, but also pave the way for the next Fang Zhan and Hengqiao, who will be blamed on the Havaliji family.
In short, mixing the truth of all things, true and false, Li Hong believes that Saleh estimates that in this life, unless he can communicate clearly with Hussein face-to-face, otherwise he will not want to figure out the truth or falsehood of today's words in his life.
And he believes that since Hussein's brother Hassan can become Saleh's heir opponent, even more calm and strong than the Sultan, he must definitely not be a simple person.
Even when the head of the other family personally appeared and talked to him, he did not appear and remained hidden in the shadows.
This shows that they must have secrets and powerful forces in their hands that they don't know, and they are definitely not like what Hou Sai said, their family is like a harmless gentle sheep, and they have no power to fight back in the face of the persecution of the Great Food Royal Family, but they want Datang as their shelter behind them.
"Even if you don't tell a lie, if you dare to say that you have met Hassan, then I will not believe even a word of what you just said. Hassan is not as simple as you think, this man is arrogant, noble, always thinks that he is the real heir, even a little more withdrawn than his father Ali, but this man is extremely quiet, even quiet and terrifying! So he rarely appears in front of people. But everyone knows that after Ali lost the throne of the Great Food Monarch, he also lost the actual control of Havalij's family, and the power basically fell into the hands of Hassan. Saleh's eyes became a little distant, as if he was looking at the invisible Hassan, and as if he was recalling his impression of Hassan.
"I don't know if you're praising me or hurting me." Li Hong smiled, for this Hassan, on the basis of curiosity, he couldn't help but draw a dangerous symbol.
"I'm envious of you, whether it's you or Hassan, compared to the power in your hands, the power in the hands of my Royal Highness the Prince, is pitiful...... Forget it, let's talk about the Havaliji family, Hussein can tell you that their family is strong, and he can be honest. After all, in Hassan's eyes, the only thing that can make him feel as a threat is the royal family, and as for the Hashemite family and the Kordo family, the two together may be Hassan's eyes on them. ”
"So powerful, huh? Wouldn't I ......? Li Hong was keenly aware of the burning ambition and unwillingness to power in Saleh's heart, and maybe in the near future, Saleh would also challenge his father Aviye for the position of the Great Monarch.
"You can try to cooperate with him, although you are very smart, but Hassan is more sophisticated, you cooperate with him, I am afraid that when the time comes, you will just work for him."
"Is he your biggest threat?" Li Hong quietly asked for advice.
