Wei Zheng nodded: "Yes, it seems that the underground of this Yingzhou is not peaceful, Shen Liusheng can quietly dig out a basement in this city, plus the four major families are also tunneled, it will never be done by ordinary wealthy businessmen." ”

Shan Xiongxin nodded: "As soon as I saw Chen Ling enter the city gate today, I followed, and after this person went back to the General's Mansion with a few guards, he went directly to the Shen family's firm." I finally managed to get to the hut, and I almost lost the people, and the lights went out when they entered, and I thought that there must be some underground secret rooms or something inside, and it took a lot of effort to avoid surveillance and enter the house. ”

When Shan Xiongxin said this, he looked up at Wang Shichong, and said with three points of guilt in his tone: "It's a pity that after I went in, I couldn't find the secret door of the secret room where they talked, and I couldn't hear the content of their conversation. ”

Wang Shichong waved his hand: "Xiongxin, it's not easy for you, under such strict guard, you can still touch it, and you can find that they have a conversation room, it's not easy." Actually, it doesn't matter what they talk about, I basically know what they're saying. ”

Shan Xiongxin didn't know that everyone was talking about it in the afternoon, and he didn't know Shen Liusheng's situation, and when he heard this, he was slightly stunned, Wang Shichong suddenly realized that he didn't know much about this matter, so he made some explanations about the situation with Shan Xiongxin.

After listening, Shan Xiongxin lowered his head and pondered for a while. He raised his head again. "Xiongxin also agrees with Mr. Wei's opinion. I'm afraid that Shen Liusheng can't expel people from Yingzhou as previously planned. Now it seems that we don't have this ability, and if we force it, it will completely expose our intention to come to Yingzhou to the imperial court, and it will affect major events. ”

Wei Zheng smiled and said to Shan Xiongxin: "Then with the meaning of Shan Guard, what strategy should we adopt against Shen Liusheng?" ”

Shan Xiongxin said: "Now it seems. The confluence of Chen Ling and Shen Liusheng is already certain, we have already offered Chen Ling very generous conditions, which can't impress him, obviously Shen Liusheng's offer is higher! Next, I will sever the relationship with Chen Ling, and I can't raise him fatter, which in turn will form a trend that the tail will not fall. ”

Everyone's eyes looked at Wang Shichong, obviously Shan Xiongxin said everyone's thoughts, Wang Shichong was the first person to officially mention that Chen Ling might be against the water in the afternoon, and now in this case, only he is the most qualified to respond to this situation.

Wang Shichong's brows furrowed slightly. The elbow of the right hand rests against the thigh, while the hand supports the chin. Thinking intently, after a while, he raised his head, his gaze became resolute, and swept over the faces of Wei Zheng, Shan Xiongxin, and Wang Renze one by one.

Wei Zheng and Shan Xiongxin were overjoyed when they saw Wang Shichong like this, knowing that he had already made up his mind and had made up his mind, only Wang Ren had followed Wang Shichong for a short time, and he hadn't reacted for a while.

Wang Shichong's voice was slow, and his voice was not too high, but his words revealed a sense of resoluteness and wisdom: "Chen Ling's money there cannot be less, and cooperation must be carried out according to the agreement." Next, let's wait and see if Chen Ling or Shen Liusheng came to us first. ”

Wang Ren and Wei Zheng glanced at each other, with doubts written in their eyes, and Wang Ren said: "This Chen Ling has obviously turned back, why do you continue to cooperate with him?" Uncle, that's not the way to be a good person. ”

Wang Shichong shook his head, and said with a straight face: "Let's judge the shape first, just now Xiongxin said that Chen Ling had fallen to Shen Liusheng, just because we saw Chen Ling and Shen Liusheng discussing in the secret room, and then the two came out and called them brothers, and even Chen Ling took the initiative to lower his posture and call Shen Liusheng a brother and brother, so you judge that Shen Liusheng offered better conditions, so Chen Ling gave up on us and fell to Shen Liusheng, right?" ”

Shan Xiongxin nodded: "Yes, can't this be proven?" When Chen Ling left the lord in the afternoon, he should not have been so happy. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Yes, when Chen Ling left us, he was in a hurry to go to Shen Liusheng to ask for a shop, but judging from his admission that he had a heart of self-reliance, told Empress Xiao and his secret agreement, exposed the transaction with Xiao Mo last night, and even took the initiative to mention Shen Liusheng later, he has basically told us everything he knows, and he can say that he has no reservations about us." ”

"The reason why he didn't make love with Shen Liusheng when he left at the end was just because he was in a hurry to find Shen Liusheng to ask for a store."

"Let's take a look at the conditions we gave Chen Ling, a thousand war horses, five million money, and willing to share those shops with him in this Yingzhou City, can Shen Liusheng offer better conditions than us? If Shen Liusheng is willing to give most of the shops in this city to Chen Ling, then is it necessary for him to turn his face with me for these shops? Therefore, Shen Liusheng's conditions will not be higher than mine. ”

Wei Zheng and Wang Ren nodded again and again when they heard this, and Wei Zheng raised his hand and said, "My lord, there is another point, that is, Shen Liusheng still has a lot of business in this Jingxiang land, just like giving the four major families the properties and shops in the four states, it can also give Chen Ling benefits in other states and counties." ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "Chen Ling is both greedy and short-sighted, his goal is only limited to this Yingzhou, he just wants to run his own piece of the world, and he is not very interested in the industries of other places." You see that in order to gain a foothold in this Yingzhou, he did not hesitate to give up the manor of his hometown in Lujiang, so if Shen Liusheng takes other local industries as a condition, I am afraid that he will probably not look down on it, besides, we can also open this condition. ”

Wei Zheng smiled and nodded: "What the lord said is extremely true. ”

Wang Shichong's expression became a little lighter: "So according to my estimate, the situation is not so strict, and there is another detail that you don't know if you have paid attention to, that is, it is Shen Liusheng himself who is talking to Chen Lingmi, not the master behind him." Chen Ling is not smart. should also know that there is someone behind Shen Liusheng. One of his subordinates rewarded him with some shops in Yingzhou. Just let him give up cooperating with us, he shouldn't be stupid like this. ”

Wei Zheng also smiled slightly: "The lord means that Chen Ling just had a pleasant conversation with that Shen Liusheng, and he got a lot of substantial benefits from him, but this benefit will not make him give up his cooperation with us and turn to Shen Liusheng, right?" ”

Wang Shichong sighed and said, "Chen Ling seems to be smarter than we imagined, I may have underestimated him a little before." Although this man is greedy and selfish, he is not stupid, and he is very good at betting on both sides to achieve his best interests. ”

"Now this Yingzhou city can be said to be a three-legged powerhouse, his power is obviously weaker than ours and Shen Liusheng's side, if it completely falls to the side, after that side completely expells the other side, his good days will come to an end."

"So now his attitude is to choose a sleek neutrality, and not to choose a side between us and Shen Liusheng! Sooner or later, we will have to leave Yingzhou, but Shen Liusheng will have to operate here for a long time. Chen Ling still wants to monopolize this Yingzhou in the end, so he wants to see it the most. Before we left Yingzhou, we completely squeezed Shen Liusheng away, and finally entrusted the property in hand to his surname Chen. ”

When Wang Shichong said this, he stood up with Shan Xiongxin and Wang Renze looking at him with admiration, and said resolutely: "When Chen Ling comes to us tomorrow, he will come out of nowhere!" ”

Wang Renze had been listening to it and nodding his head again and again, but when he heard this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and blurted out: "Uncle, why are you so sure that Chen Ling will come tomorrow?" Today, I let Shen Liusheng say that he would come to the state to see you, and it is said that Shen Liusheng will come to see you. ”

Wang Shichong smiled and shook his head: "Shen Liusheng, a treacherous and ghost-like human spirit, I'm afraid that he cut a lot of meat for Chen Ling today, and he must have asked Chen Ling to help him speak in front of me." He will definitely not go to the door directly by himself, unless Chen Ling convinces us here and is willing to retract the hostile declaration that drove him out of Yingzhou, otherwise he will not take the initiative to come to the door. ”

"If Shen Liusheng and us are friends rather than enemies, and then negotiate with us under this premise, then the benefits that will be shared to us in the end will be much less."

Wei Zheng nodded: "Yes, the so-called take from it, get it; Take it from it, get it from it! If we talk to him according to the precondition of driving him out of Yingzhou, then it is good that he can stay after losing half of the shop pù in the end, but if we talk to him according to the premise of peaceful coexistence, then he can change hands at most and form an alliance with us, and the price is completely different. ”

Wei Zheng also smiled slightly: "The lord means that Shen Liusheng will let Chen Ling come to the front station first and intercede for him, right?" ”

Wang Shichong's expression suddenly became stern: "If Chen Ling comes, it means that he doesn't want to choose a side between us and Shen Liusheng, but wants to take advantage of it, but if Chen Ling doesn't come, it will be troublesome, which means that he and Shen Liusheng really join forces and want to squeeze us out of Yingzhou in turn." ”

The smile on Wei Zheng's face froze suddenly, and a shadow suddenly flashed in his heart: "Chen Ling really dares to do this?" My lord, why do you make such a judgment? ”

Wang Shichong said in a deep voice: "When making predictions, we must take into account the worst possibility, even if the possibility is small, but it is better than being caught off guard at that time." ”

"We are indeed too strong in front of Chen Ling, when he came to us this afternoon because he had no choice but to cooperate with us, but now Shen Liusheng is obviously very generous, and compared to our coercive posture, Shen Liusheng put his figure very low. This will make Chen Ling feel safer to cooperate with Shen Liusheng, people always like others to flatter themselves and greet them with a smile. ”

Wei Zheng's expression also became very solemn: "Lord, are you worried that Chen Ling will attack you through Empress Xiao?" ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "It shouldn't be, Queen Xiao is a smart person, and it is not Queen Xiao's pillow wind that determines my Wang Shichong's life and death, but Yang Guang's suspicion, and it will only backfire to slander at this time." But he might be able to knock me out of Yingzhou and transfer me out of Yingzhou, which can be done. ”

Wang Renze's eyes widened, and he shook his head in disbelief: "Lord, you just transferred you out of this Yingzhou?" Why? ”

Wang Shichong sighed: "Yang Guang wants to remove a state assassin history, and he doesn't need any reason, just like this time I took office in Yingzhou ahead of schedule." directly asked Han Shige to resign ahead of schedule. Why is that? ”

Wei Zheng nodded: "Not bad." This move is really ruthless, if Empress Xiao can give Xiao Mo an official, there is also a way for us to lose this official, and then we only need to say that the lord brought a lot of henchmen when you took office, especially to treat me Wei Zheng as a staff member, this alone is enough to make Yang Guang jealous, and go to remove the lord from the official. ”

Wang Shichong suddenly laughed again: "But this is only the worst result. Chen Ling should be like Wei Zheng said, not so stupid, we are just in case. If Chen Ling doesn't come tomorrow, it means that he is really trying to find a way to get Empress Xiao to let me leave Yingzhou, and when the time comes, I can't say anything, so I have to start and abolish Chen Ling first. ”

Wei Zheng's eyes lit up: "Does the lord mean to report Chen Ling's plot in advance?" ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Yes, when the time comes, send someone to the Chen family manor in Lujiang to protect Xiao Xuan's tomb there, that is the most important and direct evidence!" In addition, through Guò Hu Sizheng, Chen Ling has been paid empty for more than a year. The evidence of summoning the villagers of Lujiang to settle in Yingzhou and incorporating all of them into their own personal guards has also been preserved. Relying on these two ironclad evidences. Force Chen Ling to listen to us, otherwise he will hand over these two things to Yang Guang. ”

Wei Zheng laughed: "Lord, this is not quite like your style, haven't you always disagreed with grabbing people like Yang Su and forcing people to comply, but saying that you must treat people with your heart." ”

Wang Shichong shook his head, and said: "Xuancheng, treating people with heart also depends on the object, if it is a gentleman, he should naturally be happy and treat it with sincerity; But for a master like Chen Ling, who has milk and is a mother, he can't help but be afraid of his heart in this way. The villain is afraid of strength but not virtuous, you are polite to him, but he is weak and deceitful, and grasping his handle in his hand is the most effective means of control. ”

When Wang Shichong said this, he stopped and sighed: "Actually, this is not my original intention, I know that Xuancheng wants to ask me, how can this gentleman and villain be divided, loyalty, treachery, good and evil will not be written on his face." ”

"A person like Chen Ling can see through loyalty and treachery at a glance, but it is difficult to say if someone else is replaced, maybe it is someone you trust who betrays you and betrays you in the end."

When Wang Shichong sighed for a while, everyone in the room didn't say a word, and listened silently, until he finished speaking, Wei Zheng smiled: "As a king, thunder, rain and dew are all heavenly graces, as a lord, it is also necessary for you to give grace and power, just like you can spare the evidence of their crimes to the officials in Yingzhou, isn't this also a good strategy to win people's hearts?" I don't think Chen Ling is necessarily so ignorant, he shouldn't be our enemy. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "We have to plan for the worst, but the biggest possibility is that Chen Ling chooses to be neutral between us and Shen Liusheng." So if he comes tomorrow, then we can continue to cooperate, but if he pretends to be deaf and dumb, then he will join forces with Shen Liusheng and prepare to play tricks against us, and then we will have to get rid of Chen Ling first, and then start a war with Shen Liusheng. ”

When Wang Shichong said this, his speed of speech was not fast, and his voice was not high, but a trace of murderous intent flashed in the cold green light in his eyes, which made people shudder.

Outside the closed gate, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, and Wang Shichong said in a deep voice: "Brother Chai, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Jincheng's voice sounded low: "Lord, Chen Ling is here." ”

A moment later, Chen Ling, who was still wearing the armor of the day, was sitting in the living room of the small courtyard of the Yingzhou Thorn History Mansion with a smile, while Wang Shichong changed into the civilian clothes he wore at home and sat on the main seat, Wei Zheng smiled and stood behind Wang Shichong, looking like a standard relationship between staff and officials.

Zhang Jin said that he was still standing far away from the hall with his guards, while Wang Renze and Shan Xiongxin left the meeting room through the back door when they heard the news of Chen Ling's visit.

Chen Ling smiled at Wang Shichong and said, "Brother Wang, after breaking up with you during the day, I went straight to Shen Liusheng. You see, I haven't changed my armor yet, so I'm coming straight to you! ”

Wang Shichong smiled faintly, "oh", and said in a calm tone: "Brother Chen is really hard, looking at your appearance, it should be a lot of gains from Shen Liusheng." ”

A hint of smugness flashed on Chen Ling's face: "I originally thought that Shen Liusheng was not easy to speak, but after I came to the door, this guy was extremely humble to me, and without waiting for me to open his mouth to mention the conditions, he took the initiative to say that he was willing to give me half of the shop." He also asked me to tell Brother Wang that he had no intention of offending you in this Yingzhou City, and was willing to live peacefully with us. Oh. That's right. Shen Liusheng also said that he would come to visit Brother Wang in the next two days. ”

Wang Shichong has been carefully observing Chen Ling. I saw that he was foaming at the mouth, and his face was full of excitement that could not be concealed, and it was definitely not a fake to see that expression, because with Chen Ling's Zhi Mall Mansion, he could not be happy and angry, which can be fully proved from his appearance by the south stream of the city during the day.

Wang Shichong quickly sorted out his thoughts in his heart and smiled: "Brother Chen is really good, he can snatch half of the shop from Shen Liusheng before he opens his mouth." Wang is not as good as that. ”

After hearing this, Chen Ling first laughed, and was about to open his mouth to say a few more words, when he suddenly felt that something was wrong, put away his smile, and said, "Brother Wang, I listen to the meaning of your words, it seems that you are hurting me." ”

Wang Shichong put away his smile and said coldly: "Brother Chen, I didn't say you, I didn't know it when I used that Shen Liusheng as a gunman. If Wang is replaced by Xiao Miao, I am afraid that he will start to turn his face with Brother Chen now. ”

Chen Ling was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand the relationship, and instinctively asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Wang Shichong sighed and said, "Brother Chen, let me ask you a question, then Shen Liusheng gave you half of the shop, of course you are very happy, but may I ask if he has ever mentioned a word, saying how many shops are he willing to give me Wang Shichong?" ”

Chen Ling was speechless all of a sudden, he was completely immersed in the joy of getting half of Xiao Miao's store out of thin air tonight, plus he got a promise of five million from Wang Shichong during the day, and after coming out of Shen's shop, he pinched himself several times to make sure that he was not dreaming, this time he heard Wang Shichong's words all of a sudden, and immediately his IQ came back a little, and Shen Liusheng's smiling face also became hateful in his mind.

Wang Shichong continued: "Brother Chen must have heard the story of the two Taos of the monarch of Qi in the Spring and Autumn Period, throwing out some of his own interests, letting his enemies fight for me, and finally fighting, this is a trick to kill people without seeing blood, and Shen Liusheng is obviously using this trick to provoke the relationship between you and me. ”

"If Wang Shichong is a cautious person, and now I want to share with you Brother Chen according to the kind of distribution method that I agreed in the afternoon, will you be happy?"

Chen Ling shook his head: "This is what I asked for from Shen Liusheng, and we also said in the afternoon that we would go our separate ways, and I went to find the shop that Shen Liusheng wanted to come to, all of which belonged to me." ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "But when I sent someone to find the four major families to ask for a store in the afternoon, I happened to bump into Shen Liusheng who was going through the procedures for receiving the cuts with them. ”

When Chen Ling heard this, he hurriedly said: "I also heard about this from Shen Liusheng, he said that Brother Wang sent a subordinate to talk to them about this matter in the afternoon, and his tone was very loud, Shen Liusheng also said that he was a little unhappy, and he wanted to make money in business, how could he take away people's property as soon as he exported." ”

Wang Shichong said coldly: "Brother Chen, you are wearing such a military uniform today and leading soldiers to the door, did you have a good attitude towards Shen Liusheng at the beginning?" ”

Chen Ling smiled: "Of course not, I went to the door like this today, I originally wanted to scare Shen Liusheng into giving in to me!" The purpose of leading the troops is to tell this kid, don't fight with the officials, even if he has a background, in this Yingzhou City, it is still me, General Chen, who commands the army, has the final say. But as soon as we met today, he was very respectful, as the saying goes, don't hit the smiling face when you reach out, and he makes me think that I can't be fierce. ”

Wang Shichong smiled "hehe": "This is Shen Liusheng's power, for my Wang Shichong, whose power is temporarily stronger than Brother Chen, he will come to a cold face and not give an inch of land; As for Brother Chen, you are generous and take the initiative to make friends, if Wang Shichong is a suspicious person, then what I am thinking about now is not how many stores you Brother Chen has taken from him, but I will suspect that Brother Chen and Shen Liusheng have reached a secret agreement to deal with me together. ”

When Wang Shichong said the last two sentences, his tone raised slightly, and his eyes were fixed on Chen Leng, his gaze was as sharp as a sword.

Chen Ling hurriedly stood up, pointed to the sky, and said with a sincere face: "Brother Wang, the conscience of heaven and earth, I have no intention of betraying you, otherwise I would not have come to see you overnight."
