Chapter 355 Meeting with Zhang Rang
When he left the palace, Liu Xin, Su Jia and Bi Lan sat in a carriage, after all, the carriage used to give gifts to Emperor Han Ling had been requisitioned and transferred by Emperor Han Ling, so Liu Xin only had one carriage left, and this wave was a bit of a loss. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info.
Having said that, Liu Xin couldn't help but sigh, and said with some meaning: "Hey, I'm still a little cowardly today, I didn't even tell that incident, I made a mistake." ”
Su Jia naturally understood what Liu Xin meant by this, so Su Jia just smiled and shook her head, and didn't say anything.
And Bi Lan looked at Liu Xin with a curious face, and said with some doubts: "Immortal Master Liu, no, it should be said that you have now implemented your royal identity, and the fief is also in Chengdu, Yizhou, which has been predetermined, so what else have you not been able to say?" ”
Liu Xin shook his head with a smile, and explained to Bi Lan: "Bi Changshi, have you forgotten, I am only the king of Chengdu and not the king of Yizhou, so after I return to Chengdu, I can only have the right to control Chengdu, but not completely control Yizhou, after all, the name is not right, so I still need an official position to give me a legitimate reason to control Yizhou, so I want to become the Yizhou assassin or Yizhou pastor, but unfortunately everything is going too smoothly today, I am afraid of being in a hurry, That's why I didn't mention it to Your Majesty. ”
Bi Lan nodded, indicating that she understood what Liu Xin meant.
Liu Xin glanced at the palace outside the carriage, and couldn't help but sigh again, it was a pity that such a magnificent palace was burned by Dong Zhuo, and he hoped that he could take Luoyang from Dong Zhuo's men before Luoyang was burned down by Dong Zhuo in the future.
Bi Lan saw Liu Xin sighing, and thought that Liu Xin was wrong, so she asked with some worry: "Lord Wang, what's wrong with you, why have you been unhappy all the time today." ”
Liu Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "Why am I unhappy, I just remembered something, by the way, Bi Changshi, you have behaved so well recently, presumably your status in the eyes of His Majesty should have risen a lot." ”
When Bi Lan heard Liu Xin say this, she couldn't help but nodded, and said with a smile: "Of course, now Your Majesty has been impressed with me, I estimate that now my status among the ten permanent servants is only below Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, otherwise it will not be me who will accompany Your Majesty to meet with the prince today, you must know that it is Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong who are usually responsible for serving Your Majesty, and if you let me bring that magical album back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely give me a good reward, of course, It's all thanks to you, Lord Wang. ”
Liu Xin smiled and nodded, although Bi Lan's words were complimenting himself, but he could also hear Bi Lan's gratitude to himself, after all, Bi Lan was originally just a person with a relatively low sense of existence and status among the ten permanent servants, but now he has been valued by Emperor Han Ling, which makes Bi Lan's status in the ten permanent servants rise, and he is close to Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong.
Thinking of this, Liu Xin couldn't help but smile and nodded, and said happily to Bi Lan: "No wonder I said why didn't I see Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong today, it turns out that this is the case, but Bi Changshi, don't be complacent, after all, this Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong are not small roles, Bi Changshou, it is still very difficult for you to surpass their status, so you have to continue to work hard, I will definitely give you enough support, you can't let me down." ”
Bi Lan immediately nodded, and said with a smile: "Of course, I know very well the gap between myself and Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, so I will work hard to surpass them, and I will not disappoint you, Lord Wang, please rest assured." ”
Liu Xin nodded, and said to Bi Lan thoughtfully: "This is very good, but Bi Changshi, you have to be careful Zhao Zhong, after all, the little eunuch who made trouble for me this morning is Zhao Zhong's subordinate, and the matter of helping me out of the siege today must have been known by Zhao Zhong, with Zhao Zhong's personality of a small belly, he will definitely try to find trouble for you, so Bi Lan, you have to be careful, as for that Zhang Rang, I'm afraid it's not a good thing, Zhang let him see Bi Changshi, you were promoted so quickly, It is very likely that he will also find an opportunity to suppress Bi Chang to serve you, so you have to be more careful. ”
After Liu Xin finished speaking, he couldn't help but pat Bi Lan's shoulder, looking like the organization was very optimistic about you.
Bi Lan nodded thoughtfully, Bi Lan has dealt with Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong for more than ten years, and he already knows the character of Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong well, so Bi Lan knows that what Liu Xin said is not nonsense, and Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong are really likely to come to find trouble for themselves.
However, Bi Lan is not a fool, so Bi Lan has already prepared countermeasures and is confident to deal with Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong.
Liu Xin and Bi Lan were chatting in the carriage, and Su Jia was silently a listener on the side, until the carriage came to the gate of the palace, Bi Lan suddenly saw a person standing outside the carriage - Zhang Rang!
Bi Lan frowned, he didn't expect Zhang Rang to be at the gate of the palace, but looking at Zhang Rang's posture, Liu should have come to find Liu Xin.
Bi Lan whispered to Liu Xin: "Lord Wang, Zhang asked him to be outside, it seems that he is coming for you." ”
Liu Xin raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect Zhang Rang to still want to come and meet him, so he said with a smile: "Oh, then let's get out of the car and meet Zhang Rang, I really want to talk to Zhang Rang." ”
Liu Xin had long planned to meet with Zhang Rang, after all, there were many things Liu Xin wanted to have a good chat with Zhang Rang, such as Zhang Jiao of Taiping Road, and Tang Zhou, an undercover agent placed by Zhang Rang in Taiping Road...
So as soon as Liu Xin finished speaking, he took the lead and got out of the carriage and saw Zhang Rang.
Zhang Rang looked like he was about forty years old, wearing a standard costume of a regular attendant, standing next to a carriage, looking at Liu Xin with a smile, and sure enough, he was looking for Liu Xin.
Liu Xin also smiled at Zhang Rang, and then said, "This is Zhang Changshi?" ”
Zhang Rang nodded with a smile and said politely: "It's Zhang Rang down there, Zhang Rang has seen Liu Xianshi, or should he be called the King of Chengdu." ”
Liu Xin nodded, this one made the eyes and ears in the palace seem to be quite a lot, so soon he knew that he had implemented the royal identity and was named the king of Chengdu by Emperor Han Ling, and he deliberately waited for himself at the palace gate in advance.
Liu Xin smiled and said indifferently: "Hehe, Zhang Changshou should be waiting for me at the gate of this palace, may I ask Zhang Changshou what is the matter with me?" ”
Zhang Rang also smiled and said to Liu Xin: "There is nothing important in the next that wants to bother Immortal Master Liu, but I want to congratulate Immortal Master Liu, but there is still something I want to ask Immortal Master Liu, what should we do about the thing we said before?" ”
Liu Xin smiled and shook his head, this one made him worry about breaking the contract.
When Liu Xin first arrived in Luoyang City, Zhang Rang made an agreement with Liu Xin through Bi Lan's mouth, hoping that Liu Xin could break into the internal forces of his relatives, that is, go to He Jin's subordinates to be undercover, and Liu Xin agreed at that time.
Now Liu Xin has implemented his royal identity, although Zhang Rang also has a certain degree of help, but Zhang Rang also cheated Liu Xin to a certain extent, so Zhang Rang is now afraid that Liu Xin will harden his wings and want to break the contract, so Zhang Rang will come to Liu Xin today, hoping that Liu Xin can continue to recognize this agreement.
Therefore, Zhang Rang chose to wait at the gate of this palace, waiting for Liu Xin's arrival, and in order to "remind" Liu Xin, Zhang Rang deliberately called Liu Xin "Liu Xianshi", instead of a more formal "prince".
Of course, Liu Xin did not intend to break the contract, or did not plan to break the contract now, because Liu Xin has not yet obtained the official position of Yizhou Assassin Shi Sure Yizhou Mu, Liu Xin is worried that if he breaks the contract in advance, it will also make Zhang Rang angry and angry, and when the time comes, he will unite Zhao Zhong to deal with himself together, and then he will say goodbye to the Yizhou Assassin Shi or the position of Yizhou Pastor that he wants.
Therefore, Liu Xin decided to appease Zhang Rang for the time being, so that Zhang Rang would not worry that he would break the contract, after all, Liu Xin felt that it was necessary for him to maintain the current cooperative relationship with Zhang Rang.
Liu Xin has now figured out Zhang Rang's careful thinking, so he said indifferently: "Oh, what Zhang Changshi said is that incident, of course this king has not forgotten, Zhang Changshi, you can rest assured, this king promised to live a good thing, and he will never regret it, after all, this king is full of promises." ”
Zhang Rang naturally heard Liu Xin's dissatisfaction from Liu Xin's words, and also knew that Liu Xin was emphasizing his identity.
So Zhang Rang immediately lowered his posture and said to Liu Xin with a smile: "Lord Wang, you are right, I admire a person like Lord Wang." ”
Liu Xin nodded, pretended to be arrogant, and said with satisfaction: "That's right, Zhang Changshi, you can rest assured, this king also looks down on an upstart like He Jin, and relies on his sister to take the throne." ”
The reason why Liu Xin pretended to be like this was to make Zhang Rang paralyzed and careless, in fact, Liu Xin did this and succeeded, although Zhang Rang is now respectful to Liu Xin, but in his heart he has begun to slander Liu Xin, thinking that Liu Xin is no different from that He Jin, and he is not just an upstart.
Therefore, Zhang Rang saw that the purpose of his trip had been achieved, so he didn't have anything to say to Liu Xin, so Zhang Rang said goodbye to Liu Xin: "Prince, you can say that, you can rest assured that you will not disturb the prince out of the palace, but unfortunately you can't leave the palace at will, so you can only send off the prince at the gate of this palace." ”
Liu Xin shook his head, Zhang let you achieve your purpose, but I still have some things I want to talk to Zhang about it.
So, Liu Xin's face changed, and he suddenly said to Zhang Rang with a serious face: "Oh, Zhang Changshi, have you forgotten something and want to tell me." ”
Zhang Rang was stunned, he didn't expect Liu Xin to suddenly change his face, and he also said such a headless and tailless word, which made Zhang Rang a little confused.
However, Zhang Rang quickly figured out why Liu Xin said this to himself, and he also knew that Liu Xin was talking about that incident, that is, Zhang Rang sent someone to rebel against Liu Xin's team members, and turned these team members into his own undercover agents.
But how can I admit these things directly, so Zhang Rang pretended that I didn't know anything, and then said to Liu Xin puzzled: "What do you mean, I have already finished everything I want to say to you." ”
Liu Xin naturally knew that Zhang Rang was pretending to be stupid, so he sneered, and then said meaningfully: "Zhang Changshou, as partners, we should trust each other, if you can't even do the most basic trust, then our cooperation will not have to continue, after all, no one wants to be pointed at by their partners from behind, what do you think, Zhang Changshou?" ”
Zhang Rang first stared at Liu Xin, then shook his head, and said helplessly: "Lord Wang, you are right, no one wants to be plotted by others, I admit that this is my mistake, but this is also because this is the decision I made before you came to Luoyang, let people rebel against the team members accompanying you, let these team members be undercover agents for me, this is my fault, I will order these undercover agents to leave the compound, and will also provide you with a list of other undercover agents, you know, Lord Wang, I'm not the only one who is interested in the prince. ”
Liu Xin didn't expect Zhang Rang to admit what he had done so bluntly, but Zhang Rang's appearance also allowed Liu Xin to spend less tongue.
So, Liu Xin put on a smiling face again, and said to Zhang Rang: "Oh, I see, it seems that I blamed Zhang Changshi, but in fact, I don't need Zhang Changshou to tell me the rest of the undercover list, I already know that my team members have all betrayed me a long time ago, but I don't want to cause more trouble, so I didn't arrest them one by one to solve them, anyway, they don't have any threat to me, of course, this doesn't mean that I, Liu Xin, am a soft persimmon and can be manipulated by others, So Zhang Changshi, you still have to take away all your subordinates as soon as possible, I have prepared a plan to deal with these guys, because I don't want to hurt the innocent and destroy the cooperative relationship between me and Zhang Changshi. ”
Zhang Rang nodded, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being a prince, and he has already seen everything, but the relationship between you and Miss Ying'er should be unusual." ”
Liu Xin's face changed slightly, he didn't expect Zhang Rang to know the relationship between him and Lai Ying'er?!
But think about it, I went to the Chunyi Building alone that day to watch Lai Ying'er's performance, and there must have been a lot of stalkers behind me, and I stayed in the Chunyi Building for so long, it will definitely attract the attention of some people.
But Liu Xin is not in a hurry, after all, Liu Xin is also planning to talk to Zhang Rang about one thing, because there are many Taiping Dao believers in Luoyang City who are trying to attack Ying'er, Liu Xin wants to use Zhang Rang's power in Taiping Dao, that is, the hand of Tang Zhou who is now in Luoyang City, to solve this trouble, so that those Taiping Dao believers can roll as far as they can, and don't bother Ying'er again.
PS: I wish you all a happy Lantern Festival, and I should also go cook glutinous rice balls.
