060 Black Hand
The arrested people were all imprisoned in the dungeon in the Taishou Mansion, Gao Shilian didn't go to see it, but just asked Wei Zheng and Li Kun to interrogate, and it is estimated that there is no important information to be examined. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info carefree I really want to go and see, but with her uncle here to check the gate, she is also a lot relieved, she suddenly felt tired, and she has already fallen asleep after a while when she goes back.
Not to mention the surprise interrogation of those who spread rumors in the Taishou Mansion, but Wei Zheng publicly announced at the door today that Li Xiang was not in Luoyang, which attracted the attention of those who had a heart in Luoyang.
In a mansion near Xuanren Gate in the eastern city of Luoyang City, three old men with white beards and seven or eight men in their forties and fifties were discussing things together.
This mansion is already a little dilapidated from the outside, and it is the official residence of a great Sima of the previous dynasty. Now there is a Sui Dynasty Yushi Lang Liu who has lived here.
But there are so many people sitting in the room, but none of them are surnamed Liu, I don't know what the reason is, anyway, the three old men in the main seat are obviously the heads of these people.
One of the old men on the left was the first to ask, "Is this true?" Did that Wei Zheng really come out to explain? ”
A man in a black brocade robe below replied cautiously at the moment: "Boss, I did come out to explain, and said that Li Xiang went out to run errands and was not kidnapped." However, the few ruffians we sent to find didn't seem to come in handy. ”
When he said this, the man in the brocade robe was obviously a little lacking in confidence, and his voice was much lower.
"Yes!" The old man didn't look at him, turned his head to look at the purple-robed old man in the middle and said, "Old Cui, how do you think we deal with it now?" ”
Cui Lao shook his head and said, "We have done everything we have done to the fullest, as for the matter between Li Xiang and that person, we will not participate in it for the time being." ”
"What? Third grandfather, we've done everything, and we're going to stop all of a sudden. The youngest man below suddenly asked in surprise, and then hurriedly said nervously: "Third grandfather, grandson is also anxious, and please forgive grandson for being reckless." ”
It seems that the third grandfather of the Cui family is very strict with his children on weekdays, and even if he says something wrong, he has to admit his mistake immediately.
However, the smiling old man on Cui Sanye's right hand stroked his white beard with his hand and said: "What Xinggong said is not wrong, since you have already done it, how can there be any reason to stop halfway." Even if he Li Xiang has some ability, so what? My Cui family has never been afraid of anyone! ”
The voice that spoke was loud and full of confidence, not at all like the spirit that an old man in his seventies and eighties could have.
The old man's words immediately aroused the extreme excitement of the few people sitting below, especially Cui Xinggong.
"Fourth grandfather, grandson thinks the same way." Cui Xinggong got up and saluted the fourth grandfather and said, "Actually, Li Xiang can be regarded as his own fault for such a thing to happen today. Not to mention that he has been arrogant and domineering since he was born, just because he dared to kill Duan Da's brother-in-law in front of Luoyang officials in front of Luoyang for the first time, this is clearly not taking Luoyang's officials in his eyes. It's ridiculous that he later dared to insult the children of those families on Baihualou, which has made him the target of public criticism. ”
Cui Xinggong seemed to have a great grudge against Li Xiang, not only was he a little excited to talk about it, but he also gritted his teeth.
"This time, Li Xiang actually came to Luoyang to take charge, so he should be unlucky. No matter what our Cui family says, it is also the head of the five surnames and seven families, Li Xiang came to Luoyang and didn't come to see the three grandfathers, he should have an accident. ”
Then this guy suddenly smiled again: "Everyone is waiting to see his good show, but I didn't expect this guy to have a swaggering cousin to take refuge in first, and then he actually arrested His Royal Highness King Teng with great fanfare." This is the old birthday star who eats arsenic and thinks it will be long. We just pushed the boat and told those people what he had secretly happened. ”
Cui Xinggong obviously felt that this time the matter was more relieved, and he actually danced with his hands, and turned his head to look at the elders present and said: "No, those people are like jackals who smell blood, and they will attack him immediately." ”
He was talking there, and the three old men on it had their own expressions. The third grandfather in the middle kept his eyes closed, and he didn't say anything to stop him when he didn't approve of it. The old man on the left frowned slightly, and did not speak. The one on the right nodded and stroked his beard, and smiled brightly.
"Now that Li Xiang is not in Luoyang at this time, and he has fallen into the hands of those people, he will definitely not survive, we should take action as soon as possible to recover all the family business he has built up over the past year, otherwise when the other people do it, we will make wedding clothes for others in vain."
Cui Xinggong actually put forward his idea in the end, to annex all of Li Xiang's family business, I have to say that this guy is ruthless enough, but I also have to say that he is still young.
The three old men did not respond to what he said, but the two men in their fifties below stood up one after another and said, "This matter must be thought twice, it is not as simple as Xinggong said." ”
The other also said: "Fourth uncle, you can't impulsively go down and really fight with Li Xiang because you have some personal grudges with Li Xiang, then Li Xiang is not the weakness we see at all, and you need to think about it in the long run." ”
Probably this is the only person who dares to be directly one of the old men, and he immediately attracted the attention of the third grandfather in the middle, opened his eyes and said, "Are you the eldest in the second room?" ”
"Back to the third uncle, I am Cui Ji, the third in the second room." Cui Ji stood there after respectfully saluting the third uncle.
"Well, yes, I can see a lot of things, I have to work hard in the future, maybe I can add another prime minister's archway to our Cui family." The third grandfather was in a good mood at this time, and he also said a witty word. Everyone laughed, and then looked at Cui Ji with envy.
Cui Ji himself is also very happy, and he can be praised by the third grandfather, which means that he has a chance to take the position in the big family of the Cui family. What makes him even happier is that the third grandfather can say such a thing, which means that if he really works hard to enter the court in the future, the Cui family will give him more support, whether it is money or connections, this is a priceless treasure.
The smiling tiger Cui Siye is a little out of action, he advocates directly killing Li Xiang, and if he doesn't die, he will suffer from it, this is Cui Siye's logic.
Since he has already made a move on Li Xiang, he can't be merciful, otherwise one day people will come back alive, and it will be troublesome to settle accounts with them, or in this embryonic state, it is better to kill Li Xiang directly.
In fact, the third grandfather didn't make up his mind, he just wanted to hear what everyone had to say, so that he could judge how to deal with this matter.
The old man on the left spoke again.
"Third brother, what do you say?"
"Well, let's wait and see, it's not appropriate to stop now, but it's not appropriate to take a further action against Li Xiang, just let it go first, and ask your subordinates to keep an eye on the Taishou Mansion, Li Xiang doesn't have to worry about it, with those people here, Li Xiang will never survive." After the third grandfather finished speaking slowly, it seemed that Li Xiang's fate had been decided in his mouth.
"Okay, listen to the third brother, what do you say, the fourth?" This time, I asked the smiling tiger.
"The third brother has said it, then let's do it, anyway, it doesn't matter if it's sooner or later, Li Xiang's things will be my Cui's sooner or later." The fourth grandfather's self-confidence is a little inexplicable.
"Okay, since it's decided, just do what the third brother tells you to do." The old man on the left waved his hand and commanded.
"Remember, don't make your own decisions, what about the Cui family and us old guys, if something bad happens to you, don't blame us for kicking you out of the door, remember?"
"Keep it in mind!" Everyone got up and saluted the three old men, and then stepped back, not to the backyard, but to the back door in batches.
The three old men looked at each other at this time, and the fourth said, "Third brother, are you really going to leave it alone?" At that time, Li Xiang's things will be divided among those families. I know that Li Xiang's inventions alone are a lot of money! ”
The fourth child is obviously salivating over Li Xiang's family property.
"Fourth brother, what you said sounds good, if Li Xiang is so easy to deal with, do we still have to wait until now?" The old man on the left hand complained for a while, and then said: "Although our Cui family is a top wealthy family, but now the world is in chaos, we can't just think about finding benefits everywhere, but we should take a good look at which side can be the master of this world in the future." ”
Saying that, he looked at the third brother and said: "The eldest brother has said in his hometown that Li Xiang's son is definitely not a thing in the pool, and he will achieve something in the future." Let us all look at it well, and don't provoke or contact it for the time being. Now it's okay, the third brother is a little disobedient to Li Xiang because of the kid who is doing his work, so he pushed Li Xiang behind his back, if Li Xiang really comes back alive and finds out what is going on, isn't it just a big enemy for our Cui family? ”
After talking bitterly for a long time, the fourth said directly: "Fifth brother, I see that your courage is getting smaller and smaller, with Li Xiang's current situation, even if he has the ability to reach the sky, I know that he will definitely not come back." ”
As he spoke, he also looked at the third brother and said: "Third brother, you know how powerful those people are, although our Cui family is not afraid of them, but ordinary people, even if they are powerful princes like Li Xiang, they will definitely not be able to please those people, and Li Xiang will definitely die!" ”
"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if!" The fifth brother still wanted to go on, but was interrupted by the third brother stretching out his hand and said: "Okay, don't say anything, this matter will end here, pay close attention to the movements of the Taishou Mansion, as for Li Xiang's side, there is still no need to stare at it, even if he can survive, there must be no threat, it is better to think about when to do it." ”
Saying that, he got up to go out, and stopped again: "Fourth, it's best to watch the little cubs under your hands, don't make a mistake at this juncture, be careful that the old man can't spare them." After speaking, he coughed a few times, and slowly walked through the back door.
The fourth and fifth stared at each other for a moment, and then flicked their sleeves and left through the back door. At this point, no one entered or left the house, and an old man who guarded the door went out of the house, tied the door with an iron chain from the outside, and entered a small alley next to him.
It turns out that this house doesn't live at all!
