After Yang Zhen came back, Liu Yingji changed his previous leisurely mentality, and always unconsciously wondered what this person would do when he came back. For this reason, he sent someone to secretly follow Yang Zhen and them, but because the other party was really difficult, it was not until a few days later that he really focused on the sentry, and there was a news that made him even more uneasy, but full of doubts - Yang Zhen was in constant contact with Li Chang.
"What the hell are they going to think?" After listening to his words, Guo Rong looked puzzled, and couldn't help but ask out loud at this time.
Liu Yingji glanced at him angrily: "If I could guess their thoughts, I wouldn't have asked you to come to see them together." I always feel that after Yang Zhen came back this time, it was more unpredictable than before, and he didn't look for me, but made me feel more uneasy. ”
"In that case, why don't you start first and give him ...... directly" Guo Rong put his hand on his throat and gestured lightly.
"If he was so easy to deal with, we would have gotten rid of him before, so why are we so troubled now. Moreover, now that he is still a Qincha, if something really happens in my Datong City, will you not pursue it? Liu Yingji glanced at his subordinate angrily.
"It's the subordinates who are not thoughtful, what do you mean?" Guo Rong hurriedly admitted his mistake.
"This person is really difficult, but fortunately, Li Chang is not a difficult master, and the official intends to start with him. However, the identity of the official is too ostentatious, so it is not a delay to find him, so I want you to make this trip. Only then did Liu Yingji tell his true intention of looking for Guo Rong to come.
"Xia Guan understands, I'll go to him to ask for an understanding, and see what he and Yang Zhen said in private." Guo Rong hurriedly nodded in agreement.
"Go ahead, pay attention to your attitude, although Li Chang is just a salt merchant, after all, there is the support of the huge Li family behind him, so it is better not to offend or not to offend."
"Yes!" As soon as Guo Rong gave up his hand, he left in stride. After he left, Liu Yingji's complexion did not improve much, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense, what he was most afraid of now was what agreement was reached between Yang Zhenzhen and the Li family, which would be too unfavorable to himself: "I hope everything is just my imagination, there are deep prejudices and contradictions between them, and they should still be opposed." ”
Guo Rong was an impatient, and this was an errand ordered by the governor, so he naturally did not delay much, and after leaving the governor's yamen, he came straight to Li Chang's mansion.
When he came to the tall building that he was quite familiar with, he saw the carriage of the Li Mansion parked there steadily, and then saw Li Chang walking out of the gate, seeing that he was about to go out.
Looking up at the somewhat gloomy sky, and estimating the time when it was almost dusk, Guo Rong's behavior was very strange, so he urged him to step forward, and before Li Chang got into the carriage, he went up one step ahead and said, "Where is Li Yuanwai going?" ”
Hearing someone greeting him from behind, Li Chang naturally looked back, and when he saw that it was Guo Rong, his body couldn't help but tremble, and a trace of panic flashed on his face. But soon, he covered up the past again, and just smiled reluctantly: "It turned out to be Mr. Guo, the villain was invited by a friend to go to a dinner, it's not early, so I have to go." ”
"Really? But which friend invited Li Yuanwai? Does this official deny it? The change in his expression naturally couldn't escape Guo Rong's eyes, and he had doubts in his heart, and the tone of this question was not so kind.
In this way, Li Chang's expression became even more nervous, and he hesitated for a moment before he said: "It's just a business friend, not a local in Datong, and the adults must not recognize it." ”
"Oh? This official is very interested in meeting your friend, I wonder if Li Yuanwai is willing to introduce him? Guo Rong asked again.
At this time, Li Chang's face became even more ugly, and he was a little speechless after a long time. When Guo Rong saw him like this, he didn't understand that if he was really a friend in the business field, the other party would be eager to invite him, which would inevitably impress others. And now, since he is so embarrassed, it is obvious that he is going to meet some special people.
After guessing this, Guo Rong smiled: "The official is just joking, Li Yuanwai doesn't have to be so nervous." I have other things to do, so leave it at that. As he spoke, he led the people and walked slowly in front of the Li Mansion.
It wasn't until he saw the pedestrian walk around the corner in front of him that Li Chang's expression relaxed slightly, and he got into the car and said, "Go ahead." ”
The coachman on the wheel of the carriage said yes, and with a flick of his whip, the carriage began to move slowly.
However, they didn't realize that after turning the corner, Guo Rong had stopped, and after seeing Li Chang set off, he gave a look to the two capable subordinates beside him: "Keep an eye on his whereabouts and find out who he is going to meet." ”
"Yes!" The two men hurriedly clenched their fists, and then pulled their legs and followed.
After the first shift, a news named Liu Yingji who was even more disturbed was brought back by Guo Rong: "You mean that Li Chang secretly went to see Yang Zhen again today?" ”
"Exactly." Guo Rong said with a straight face: "And he still refuses to say it directly, obviously there is a big problem with this meeting." My lord, do we need to do something about it? ”
"Well, I'm not in a hurry for now, I'm going to see what tricks they have to play."
"But adults ......"
"Yang Zhen is not easy to deal with, and Li Chang is also average. Even if the Li family is the governor of me, I may not be able to afford to offend easily, so let's take a look at what I'm talking about first. Liu Yingji waved his hand.
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Guo Rong didn't dare to persuade him again, so he had to say yes. Liu Yingji saw that he was a little unwilling, so he smiled and said: "General Guo, we are not on the battlefield, in fact, we are just ordinary battles, and we can't be angry for a while, right?" Steady and steady can defeat the enemy, and it is certainly pleasant to take risks, but there will be troubles in the end. ”
"The lesson of the adults is that the lower officials are too anxious." Guo Rong hurriedly crossed his hands and saluted.
"It's okay, you're also out of concern for your own officials. By the way, although we can't move them for the time being, we can send someone to monitor them, and once they take action again, it's better to be prepared, and this matter is still left to you to deal with, you don't want to disappoint me. As he spoke, Liu Yingji patted Guo Rong's shoulder as if comforting and encouraging.
Guo Rong hurriedly agreed: "The lower officials must do things well." ”
At the same time, in the inn room where Yang Zhen was, several brothers were looking at him with some uneasiness. After a while, Xia Kai frowned and said, "My lord, could this be a trap plot on their part, pretending to let you go to see Lord Zhong, but in fact, it is going to be unfavorable to you?" ”
"Yes, I also think it's very possible, otherwise Lord Zhong has been under house arrest before, and he can't see anyone, why are they kind now?" Cai Yingyang also agreed.
Seeing that the two of them cared so much about their safety, Yang Zhen was still very moved in his heart, but he couldn't agree with their thoughts: "You guys are too worried, and they won't take such a risk." And if they really want to attack me, they don't have to be so troublesome, they just need to send someone here to kill me, why trick me into going to the Qincha Xingyuan? ”
"This ......" As soon as the two of them heard his analysis, they also felt reasonable, and it was really difficult to stop them for a while.
"Moreover, don't forget, we still have the most fatal evidence, they don't have the courage to kill me, otherwise I'm afraid that the entire Li family will have to bury me, and they won't be able to make up their minds." Yang Zhen sneered.
"My lord, what do you think they mean? Do you really want to reconcile with adults, so you become a good person again? Xia Kai asked a little puzzled.
"That's not very likely. I guess they have other plans, and the idea should be to hit Lord Zhong. ”
"What do you mean?" Xia Kai had already faintly thought of something.
Yang Zhen glanced at him, and nodded and said, "It should be like this, they want to use Lord Zhong's mouth to persuade me to stop, this is also the biggest chip in their hand." ”
"What will the adults do?" When Xia Kai heard that it would be like this, he felt a little uneasy in his heart. They have gone through too many hardships to grasp the initiative now, and it would be disappointing if Yang Zhen changed his mind because of Zhong Yu's persuasion.
However, Yang Zhen's subsequent answer put him at ease: "When will our Jinyi Wei be controlled by outsiders?" Although he Zhong Yu is a Qincha, but now he is only a prisoner, why should I buy his account? Those people in the family also underestimated me Yang Zhen too much. ”
Xia Kai couldn't help but nod and said: "What the Lord said is that the situation in Shanxi now only depends on you, and Lord Zhong himself is difficult to protect, so naturally he can't say anything else." ”
"In that case, since you have made up your mind, why do you still want to see him? Isn't it done? Is this less risky? Cai Yingyang asked with some confusion.
"Of course, I went to see him with my own intentions, and I didn't go there not only to see Lord Zhong, but also to meet the other brothers. Don't you think we have too few people available now? If we can get out of the other brothers who have been placed under house arrest, our chances will be even greater. Yang Zhen said.
Only then did the two of them understand and nodded, feeling that their own adults had thought it through. In fact, they didn't know that Yang Zhen had another purpose that he hadn't said, and he wanted to hear with his own ears what Zhong Yu's attitude was. He hadn't been able to act according to the original plan before, and Yang Zhen felt that he could bear it again. But if he really spoke for those people this time, Yang Zhen would also include him in the list of opponents. To be honest, Yang Zhen didn't want this to come true!
