Seeing Yang Zhen throwing something over, Li Heng subconsciously reached out to catch it, only to feel that the tentacles were warm, it should be a jade thing. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info when he took it to his eyes, a face that was still calm and calm suddenly changed color.

This is indeed a wrench carved from a whole piece of jade, the shape is very simple, and it has a lot of weight. But these are not important, the important thing is that one of the wrenches is actually a seal on one side, and when you look closely, you will find that it is carved with the word "Hao", and on the edge of the word, there are still traces of red ink that have accumulated over the years.

This wrench is naturally very familiar to Li Heng, and it is the belongings of their Li family's henchman Jiang Hao. As the chief steward in charge of business, Jiang Hao of course inevitably had to sign and pledge, and in order to prevent his seal from being stolen and causing trouble, Jiang Hao ingeniously made such a wrench and wore it on his hand, so that it was impossible to be stolen by people with ulterior motives.

Li Heng remembered very clearly that Jiang Hao would never take this wrench off his hand at any time. And now, the wrench finger has been thrown from Yang Zhen's hand, which can only explain one truth - Jiang Hao has fallen into his hands.

What I was most afraid of happened finally became a fact, which made Li Heng's heart suddenly rise, and his expression was not as calm as before, and he even dared not make eye contact with Yang Zhen.

With a full view of his expression, Yang Zhen was even more sure in his heart, it seemed that this wrench taken off from Jiang Hao's hand was indeed his personal token, and the people of the Li family knew what was going on as long as they looked at it, but they lacked their own tongue. So the smile on his face became a little bigger: "What, now Brother Li, you should believe that what I said is definitely not a lie?" ”

"Yang Qianhu is really a good method, it's really admirable!" Li Heng gritted his teeth slightly, and said with a reluctant smile: "You do have a lot of things and evidence about my Li family, and I also believe that you are sure to ...... my Li family" The latter words, he is really difficult to say.

Yang Zhen smiled for a long time, just laughing at the other party really praising him: "Brother Li doesn't have to worry so much, as long as your Li family is not my enemy, even if I have more evidence in this regard, it doesn't matter to you." ”

Is this possible? As long as he thought that this person had such evidence, Li Heng had a feeling that he was on his back, with a sharp sword hanging over his head and that it might fall at any time. But even if he secretly hated it in his heart, he didn't dare to show it at this time, so he had to smile bitterly: "Since Yang Qianhu said so, our Li family naturally hopes to make you a friend." I just don't know...... How can we be your friends? ”

Seeing that he finally relented, Yang Zhen smiled even more heartily: "This is very good, since you are friends, you should help each other." I can help you hide all these things, but at the same time, your Li family also has to do something for me. ”

"But what?" Although he knew that the other party's request would not be simple, in such a situation, Li Heng could only say so.

Yang Zhen was not busy saying his request, but first took a sip of wine, took a few chopsticks and slowly chewed and swallowed, feeling that he had put a certain amount of pressure on the other party, and then said: "I think you should know why I came to Datong, right?" ”

"Isn't it just for counterinsurgency? However, we Li family are afraid that we can't help this point, and even the officials and soldiers of Datong have no way to take the rebels who hid in the Taihang Mountains, so it is naturally impossible for us to exterminate them. After all, our Li family is still just a family, not an official government......" Li Heng immediately shook his head and said.

"I've never said anything about letting you go to quell the rebellion, the government has come forward in this matter, and you don't need it."

"And what do you mean?" Although Li Heng was asking, his heart had quickly turned to a certain thought, which made his expression even more ugly.

Yang Zhen, who had been paying attention to him, naturally discovered this, and smiled: "Actually, I value the cause of the mutiny more than quelling the chaos, and as far as I know, all this is because there are too many greedy people in the government." It's a pity that with the little evidence I have now, I can't get rid of all of them, but I think with the Li family's power in Shanxi and the relationship with these people in the government, these people should have a lot of handles, so ......"

"No!" Li Heng didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and shook his head categorically: "It's impossible for our Li family to commit such a suicidal act!" ”

What he said is not an exaggeration, and now all the forces in Shanxi are intricately entangled, and it can almost be regarded as both prosperity and loss. If Li Jiazhen helped Yang Zhen come up with evidence against local officials, I am afraid that they themselves will not be able to escape responsibility.

Seeing that he rejected his proposal, Yang Zhen's smile suddenly turned cold: "Is this such an attitude?" Then there will be nothing to talk about between us, farewell! So saying, he simply stood up and wanted to leave.

"Yang Qianhu is slow!" Seeing this, Li Heng hurriedly shouted. He had never seen such a negotiation as Yang Zhen, he couldn't talk about a word, and he was about to leave without any more bargaining, which really made him feel very difficult to deal with.

"Why, Brother Li changed his mind so quickly?" Of course, Yang Zhen didn't really want to leave, just to put more pressure on the other party, and as soon as he heard that he was staying, he stopped his steps and looked at the other party again.

"Yang Qianhu, your request is really too difficult for a strong man, if our Li family really helps you with this, I am afraid that not only will it be difficult to gain a foothold in Shanxi in the future, but also the current difficulties will not be able to pass. You know, it's not just us who hold the handle of those officials, but those officials who also hold our vital points. If we really do this, do you think they will let my Li family go? Li Heng had to be patient and explain carefully.

Yang Zhen glanced at the other party coldly: "With the foundation of the Li family's thousands of years of business in Shanxi, will there be no means to check and balance these officials?" Brother Li, are you looking down on yourself, or are you looking down on me? ”

"I ......" Li Heng didn't expect Yang Zhen to understand this, and he suddenly didn't know what to say. After a long while, he sighed: "This matter is too important, I can't be the master, I have to go back and discuss with the head of the family before I can give you a clear answer." "Now I can only use this procrastination.

Yang Zhen didn't have too much of an opinion on this, so he nodded and said, "I also know that you don't have to say anything about it, so I'll give you some time to discuss and think about it." ”

Seeing that he was finally not as aggressive as before, Li Heng breathed a sigh of relief, but then said with some uneasiness: "Then ...... the people of our Li family?"

"As long as you don't deliberately delay for too long, I don't think Jiang Hao will appear in front of people." Yang Zhen's assurance made Li Heng feel more at ease. It's just that his heart has just been put down, and he heard Yang Zhen raise another finger: "That's the first request, I have a second request here." ”

"Huh?" Li Heng's brows suddenly tightened again, he didn't expect this guy to be so insatiable, and after asking the Li family to help him deal with the Datong official, he wanted to make other requests. But people had to bow their heads under the low eaves, and at this time Yang Zhen held the initiative, even if he was dissatisfied, he could only listen: "Yang Qianhu, please speak." ”

Yang Zhen was not polite, and said directly: "I have always had a question, I found out some clues about Liu Yingji and them causing this mutiny, which is an extremely confidential matter, except for my brothers, and Lord Zhong knows." I believe that it is impossible for them to leak such an important matter, so how did Liu Yingji know about this, and therefore set up a plan to kill people with a knife? This is indeed a problem that has been bothering Yang Zhen, he doesn't believe that all this is a coincidence, as soon as he found clues on his side, Liu Yingji and they wanted to get rid of them. He decided that Liu Yingji didn't have the courage, unless he had to, he couldn't take the risk of killing a Qin cha like Zhong Yu, because then he would also have to bear a heavy responsibility.

"This ......" Li Heng was a little hesitant, and wanted to say that he didn't know anything about it, but in the end he gave up this ridiculous excuse and decided to tell the truth, after all, it was not a loss for them, and there would even be some benefits: "Don't hide it, this is someone who told Governor Liu to tell the truth." ”

"Who's the snitch?" Yang Zhen's heart tightened, and he stared at him for a moment.

"It's from Dongchang, what's that called...... Song what a bridge. ”

"Song Xueqiao ......" After Yang Zhen said this name, he regretted it in his heart, it turned out to be him! It turned out that all the disasters that happened before appeared because of his obstruction, and it was because of him that such a brother died tragically under the Tartar knife! I actually ignored this person before, and since I arrived in Datong, I left him behind, thinking that he was no longer available, what waves could he make?

But now that I think about it, I did look down on this guy a little before. Song Xueqiao is a thousand households in Dongchang, even if the people he brought out before were solved by him, he could still find someone to help him. Presumably, it was precisely because of this that he found out that he had found a clue and told Liu Yingji the secret, so as to achieve the purpose of killing people with a knife.

And what made Yang Zhen blame himself even more was that all this could have been completely avoided. As long as he was eradicated in Xin County that day, it would be impossible for everything that happened afterward. But his own momentary support led to such consequences......

The more he thought about it, the more remorse Yang Zhen felt in his heart, he hated that he couldn't find Song Xueqiao now and kill him to vent the hatred in his heart!

Li Heng saw him gritting his teeth, but he was secretly happy in his heart: "Boy, finally there is something that makes you feel a headache!" ”
