Chapter 282: If the heart is there, the dream is there
Although Feng Jingyao didn't get Du Yuesheng's answer when he left, he knew very well in his heart that with Du Yuesheng's character, Du Yuesheng would not ignore this matter, and there was not much time left for Xu Wenqiang, and there was not much time left for him for Du Yuesheng.
As long as the letter is sent out and the prince replies, Xu Wenqiang will go to see the prince, and after meeting the prince, he should make an expression.
Therefore, Feng Jingyao is not worried about Xu Wenqiang and Du Yuesheng at all, both of them are very eager to be officials and people who want to glorify the lintel, and Feng Jingyao is very clear about such people.
When Feng Jingyao left Du Yuesheng's mansion, Xu Wenqiang received the news, but he only smiled coldly.
Feng Jingyao went to visit Du Yuesheng for the first time, Xu Wenqiang knew what it was for, wasn't it just for Ding Li? If you want to say who can get rid of Ding Li in the Green Gang, Xu Wenqiang can only be sure that only Du Yuesheng is in charge, because Du Yuesheng is in charge of the intelligence department of the Green Gang, and he has a group of assassins in his hands who are very good, even Xu Wenqiang is also very jealous.
Because at the moment, everyone is thinking about their own interests, which is understandable.
Besides, Feng Jingyao did this to help himself instead of betraying himself, so he didn't need to be angry with Feng Jingyao for this.
Moreover, it is not worth it for him to be angry with Feng Jingyao for this matter, with Feng Jingyao's talent, as long as he and Du Yuesheng are voted under the prince, they will definitely be reused, and he may not be able to obtain the height of Feng Jingyao and Du Yuesheng in the future, so it will be beneficial for him to have a relationship with Du Yuesheng and Feng Jingyao now.
Xu Wenqiang has been in Luoyang City, and after a long time, he also understands a little truth, that is, no matter what he does, interpersonal relationships are very important.
Du Yuesheng returned to the study and began to deploy his own plan, ignoring the content of Xu Wenqiang's letter, now they are all taking care of their own interests, who will consider other people's ideas?
The housekeeper was an old man who followed Du Yuesheng, and when he saw that Du Yuesheng ignored Xu Wenqiang's order, he asked a little worriedly, "Elder, what are you going to do about what the helper said in the letter?" ”
"Leave him alone." Du Yuesheng said in a low voice.
"That's a bit wrong, isn't it?" The butler said cautiously.
"Nothing bad." Du Yuesheng said coldly, "This matter should have been solved by him, shouldn't it?" ”。
"This..." The housekeeper wanted to dissuade Du Yuesheng, and seeing Du Yuesheng's impatient look, he hurriedly left the study. has followed Du Yuesheng for many years, and he knows Du Yuesheng's character too well, this is a strong and confident man. For such a man, if you don't have enough power and strength, you can't order him to do anything, let alone influence his thoughts.
Du Yuesheng saw the housekeeper leaving, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, what was he going to do, how could it be guessed by others?
……
Besides, Ding Li, when he returned to his house, he hurried to the bedroom and hurriedly said to his maidservant, "Quick, prepare a blessing and ointment for the gang leader, you want to kill me." ”
"Yes." When the maidservant received the order, she put a smoking gun and an oil lamp on the table on the couch, took out a fingernail-sized piece of Fushou ointment, put it in a tobacco pot with tobacco leaves, and handed it to Ding Li, who was already lying on the couch.
Ding Li raised the cigarette gun, put the cigarette pot on the oil lamp, and took a deep breath.
"Whew-"
The sound of tobacco leaves burning in the smoke pot is heard.
"Cool—"
Ding Li took a puff of cigarette and spit it out again, letting out such a sigh from the bottom of his heart, with a look of intoxication.
The poison in Xu Wenqiang and Du Yuesheng's mouths has become a blessing ointment in Ding Li's place, an elixir that can make him want to die, and it is his preciousness. Ding Li knew very well the harm of this kind of thing, his body was not as good as before, but he enjoyed the kind of stimulation brought to him by the Fushou Ointment, which made him unable to extricate himself.
Comfortably smoking a pot of cigarettes, Ding Li's face showed a satisfied look.
"Someone, let Wang Quan come to see me." Ding Li said.
Wang Quan is Ding Li's housekeeper and one of Ding Li's most important confidants.
The maidservant received the order and hurried away.
In the middle of the ring, Wang Quan walked into the room and said to Ding Li, "Helper, are you looking for me?" ”
"Wang Quan, how much stock of our Fushou Paste do we have?" Ding Li asked.
Wang Quan smiled, "There are still two months' supply." ”
"Not enough, not enough!" Ding Li said a little dissatisfied.
"Helper, in another month, we will be able to deliver a new Fortune Paste, why is it not enough?" Wang Quan asked, and suddenly exclaimed, "Could it be that something big has happened?" ”
"Hey!" Ding Li sighed and said, "It's hard to say!" ”
"What does the gang leader mean, something big has happened to the Green Gang?" Wang Quan asked in surprise.
"Nope." Ding Li got up, walked to the window, looked at the scenery in the courtyard and whispered. Immediately, he informed Wang Quan of the content of the discussion with Xu Wenqiang and Du Yuesheng in the pavilion, and believed in Wang Quan Ding Li very much and did not hide anything from him.
After hearing this, Wang Quan did not speak immediately, but was silent for a moment before asking, "Then what does the helper mean?" ”
"I don't know." Ding Li sighed, "I can't betray the boss, but I don't want the boss to serve the prince, I'm very entangled now." ”
Wang Quan was silent, he knew that Ding Li didn't know what to do, he didn't dare to do it, or he didn't want to do it, in fact, he had already thought about what to do in his heart.
"No matter what the helper does, Wang Quan will carry it out for you." Wang Quan said that he said this to give Ding Li a little confidence and encouragement.
"Wang Quan, do you think I can do this well?" Ding Li asked.
"Helper, you're doing this to help the boss, not harm him, what's wrong?" Wang Quan encouraged.
"But the boss, he really doesn't want to go with that person." Ding Li knew Xu Wenqiang's thoughts very well, Xu Wenqiang hated that person very much, otherwise he wouldn't have rejected that person so much, "Otherwise, the Green Gang would not be the current Green Gang for a long time." ”
"The current situation is that if you don't do this, we won't have a chance, do you want to watch the boss fall into it step by step and can't extricate yourself?". Wang Quan encouraged Ding Li and said, "The prince is surrounded by powerful children from wealthy families, can the eldest be reused when he goes to him?" ”。
"yes!" Ding Li sighed, "Why can't the boss listen to me? ”
"Therefore, the helper has to take extraordinary measures." Wang Quan continued to agitate.
"Really, that's all there is to it?" Ding Li was still hesitating. Wang Quan said resolutely, "That's the only way." ”
"Okay, I'll write to that person, you send it to him, and we'll see what that person means." Ding Li said.
Wang Quan was overjoyed and hurriedly handed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone to Ding Li. Ding Li wrote on rice paper, wrote a letter in a few clicks, and handed the letter to Wang Quan. He was originally illiterate, but under Xu Wenqiang's compulsion, he learned to read and write.
Wang Quan hurriedly left with Ding Li's letter.
In fact, Wang Quan's identity is not just Ding Li's housekeeper, he is also an undercover agent arranged by that person next to Ding Li, to put it bluntly, he is here to spy on Ding Li. Now that he has made achievements by Ding Li's side, Wang Quan is naturally very happy that he has made such a big gain this time.
After Wang Quan left, Ding Li lay on the couch again and smoked Fushou ointment.
This time, he was no longer in a hurry like last time, but tasted it slowly, and after a cup of tea, he finished smoking a pot and closed his eyes deeply.
In his sleep, Ding Li found himself wearing a python robe, sitting on a high seat, overlooking the people kneeling in front of him below, looking up to the sky and laughing, and the person kneeling in front of him was none other than Xu Wenqiang.
"Ahh
Suddenly, Ding Li was awakened by this dream.
He was frightened into a cold sweat, he could not have imagined that he would have such a dream, so he hurriedly got up and let the maid bathe and change his clothes. After washing, he carried a good-looking maid to bed......
In fact, Ding Li himself didn't know, deep in his heart, he had never liked to be suppressed by Xu Wenqiang to have dreams like today.
In real life, he took Xu Wenqiang as the leader, no matter what Xu Wenqiang said, he never refuted it, and then obeyed Xu Wenqiang's order, saying that it was better to hear that he was the deputy leader of the Green Gang, and to say that it was difficult to say that he was Xu Wenqiang's little brother in the Green Gang.
Therefore, Ding Li himself didn't know, he actually hated this feeling in his heart, and he hated Xu Wenqiang very much.
……
Wang Quan was very comfortable staying by Ding Li's side, and he was not suspicious of Ding Li, so his vigilance was not high. Therefore, as soon as he left Ding Li's mansion, he was targeted by three groups of people, but he himself didn't know that he was still quietly in his dream of making great achievements and receiving rewards from the leader.
Wang Quan is from a bad background, he has an almost greedy obsession with money, so for money, he can do all the disgraceful actions, the reason why he got Ding Li's trust is that he dedicated his sister to Ding Li, and gave advice to Ding Li, and did a lot of things to rob the people's daughters before he could get Ding Li's attention...
Wang Quan walked on the street, his steps brisk, and his face was full of smiles.
However, he did not know that as long as he was out of the city, his death would not be far off. Because among the three groups of people who followed him, there was March. Ma Qi was ordered by Xu Wenqiang to stare at Ding Li, now that he finds out that Wang Quan has misdeeds, he will naturally not let Wang Quan go, as long as Wang Quan is out of the city, he will kill Wang Quan, he knows what it means to go out of the city, which means that Ding Li is going to send a letter to that person, and he must slaughter this dog thing before Wang Quan sends the letter out...
In addition to March, there are two groups of people who are completely followed, they are also very athletic, and they are veterans of this industry at first glance, and they also did not think of letting Wang Quan go, because they wanted to know the secrets of Wang's whole body... They also want to deal with Wang Quan outside the city.
……
Outside Luoyang City, in a mountain forest, there were thirty black-clothed people resting cross-legged.
After a while, a man in black walked into the woods and said to Zero, "Twenty-six, Wang Quan has left Ding Li's mansion and is rushing out of the city, but there are three groups of people following him behind him, what should we do now?" ”
"Follow the plan to protect Wang Quan and kill the people who are following him." A man in black whispered.
"Yes."
……
When Xu Wenqiang's letter was delivered to the hands of the county magistrate, the county magistrate and the county lieutenant of Luoyang County, the three of them were very excited, which means that Xu Wenqiang is willing to pay four hundred taels of silver to bribe His Royal Highness the prince for them, and their official positions may be kept, as for Xu Wenqiang's proposal that he will personally deliver the money to the prince's mansion, the three of them have no objection, they are still worried about who should send the money, and now Xu Wenqiang takes the initiative to undertake this task, they are very happy, because the person who sends the money needs to have enough mental preparation, this is to send money to the prince, If the prince is angered by giving money, the prince really wants to make an example of the monkey, and the person who sends the money will bear the brunt of beheading.
With Xu Wenqiang's reply, the three county officials took immediate action, and the three of them discussed that they would jointly visit His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in order to probe the Prince's tone.
The three of them made a decision, and they went out of the county office to meet the prince.
Li Hong was chatting with Yao Chong and Yao Di in the garden when he saw Chen Gong hurriedly walk in.
"Chen Gong, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't shy away from anyone." Li Hong saw that Chen Gong was about to speak and stopped, so he spoke. Chen Gong received the order and said, "Your Highness, the county commander of Luoyang County, the county magistrate, and the county lieutenant have come to see you, will we see it or not?" ”
"Did the three of them come together?". Li Hong asked.
"Yes." Chen Gong replied.
"A group of dog officers, don't you see them!" Yao Di scolded viciously.
"Little sister, don't talk too much." Yao Chong immediately yelled at Yao Di, this is a major matter of national politics, how can it be that his brothers and sisters can participate, "Your Highness, you have something important, our brother will leave first." ”
"Hmm." Li Hong nodded slightly, and said to Chen Gong, "Let them come to the study to see Lonely!" ”
Chen Gong received the order and left in a hurry. Yao Chong and Yao Di also bid farewell to Li Hong.
When Li Hong came to the study, the county commander, the county magistrate and the county lieutenant of Luoyang County had been waiting for him for a long time, and when they saw Li Hong, the three of them hurriedly got up and saluted, "See His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
"Sit down!" Li Hong waved his hand.
The three of them sat down respectfully, a little apprehensive, not daring to be Li Hong.
Li Hong asked, "You came to see Gu, do you have something to say?" ”
"Your Highness, if someone wants to see you, they asked us to ask for your opinion?"
"Someone wants to see us?" Li Hong was surprised, "Who is it?" ”
"It's the person behind us, he wants to meet His Highness, he wants to talk to His Highness." The county magistrate said worriedly. They knew that if they directly said that they wanted to give gifts to the prince, it was estimated that the prince would immediately turn his face and beat them out, so they could only answer Li Hong in this way.
"Hahaha-" Li Hong laughed, "You guys are still very interesting!" ”
"We don't dare to hide it from Your Highness, so we can only admit our mistakes." The county said in a low voice.
Li Hong snorted coldly and said, "What you have committed is not a mistake, it is a crime, and it is a big crime, do you understand?" ”。
"Plop-" The three of them were frightened by Li Hong's words, and hurriedly got up and knelt in front of Li Hong, begging, "Your Highness, we know that we are wrong, please forgive us once!" ”
Li Hong said impatiently, "Get up, wait until you see the person behind you." ”
"Yes." When the three of them saw that the prince agreed, they hurriedly responded happily. They were afraid that the prince would not agree to see Xu Wenqiang, because who was the prince and met Xu Wenqiang, so their plan would be in vain, and now that the prince agreed to meet Xu Wenqiang, their plan would be half successful, and now the rest depends on the gifts prepared by Xu Wenqiang. The three of them knew very well that if Xu Wenqiang did not come forward, even if the Qing Gang agreed to their request, it was estimated that they would only give them four million yuan, and now Xu Wenqiang personally came forward to see the prince, the gift he prepared would definitely not be ordinary, and the value would naturally not be a mere four million yuan, so as long as the prince agreed to see Xu Wenqiang, they believed that their black yarn hat would definitely be able to keep it.
"Tomorrow afternoon, Lone has a little time, I'm going to go to Luoyang City for a walk, and when the time comes, let him make an appointment, and you can just inform Lone." Li Hong said.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness the Prince, we will go and prepare for this matter as soon as we go back." The three of them were overjoyed and nodded in agreement. Now that the prince had determined the specific time, they were even more relieved.
With Li Hong's reply, the mood of the three of them was much brighter, and they didn't speak as trembling as before, and they were a little more calm.
Immediately, Li Hong said a few words of reprimand to the three of them, and the three of them nodded and took the order, and then said goodbye to Li Hong and left in a hurry.
"Your Highness, isn't it too dangerous to go out shopping tomorrow and meet with the people of the Green Gang?" After the three of them left, Chen Gong walked into the study and said to Li Hong very worriedly.
"Chen Gong, when will Cheng Dazhi arrive in Luoyang?" Li Hong opened his mouth to ask, but did not answer Chen Gong's words.
"Probably, I will go to Luoyang the night after tomorrow at the earliest." Chen Gong pondered it and replied.
"You see, since he hasn't arrived in Luoyang yet, let's go to meet this leader of the Green Gang first, and see what ability he has to control the three straw bales of Luoyang County." Li Hong smiled, "No matter how dangerous Luoyang City is, is it as dangerous as when we were chased and killed by Lu Dongzan?" ”。
"Uh-" Chen Gong didn't know how to refute, couldn't these two dangers be compared at all?
"Or, the last general will prepare again tomorrow..."Chen Gong was about to say more, but he stopped Li Hong, "Don't prepare, you bring twenty guards enough, accompanied by three people from Luoyang County, we won't encounter any danger." Besides, isn't there still the queen's secret guard? With her there, they will watch Lone in distress? ”
"No!" Since the prince had decided so, Chen Gong didn't want to persuade the prince anymore, so he took the order and left.
"Xu Wenqiang-" In the study, Li Hong spit out the name softly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "I really want to meet you, is it really Xu Wenqiang from Shanghai?" ”
"And Ding Li, Feng Jingyao and Du Yuesheng-" Li Hong muttered, "This group of people is really cute!" ”
It is said that Wei Chi Xunyan has worked hard to operate in Luoyang and spent a lot of money, Luoyang has long been covered with Wei Chi Xunyan's eyeliner, and it is not too difficult for Li Hong to know anything.
Of course, there are a lot of confidential things involved, and it will take a lot of effort for Li Hong to know it, after all, Wei Chi Xunyan has just settled in Luoyang, but he has just gained a firm foothold, and he has not penetrated various industries in Luoyang, and it is impossible to know everything.
However, in just two months, Wei Chi Xunyan has done what he is now, which really surprised Li Hong, and also made Li Hong very satisfied with Wei Chi Xunyan's current ability.
This kind of Wei Chi Xunyan is what he wants, there is a lack of such people around him, Wei Chi Xunyan is indeed a treasure he dug up...
Thinking of this, Li Hong smiled, and he smiled very happily.
Because he knows that he was born in Datang, and Datang will have more talents buried in history because of him, and these people will shine in history because of him, and they will be famous...
