Chapter 37: Zhen Lian's thoughts

Liang Hui's eyes were scarlet, his eardrums were bulging, and in a trance, he seemed to see a white storm ape with a fierce eye on the chair staring at him coldly.

The moment the four eyes met, it was as if a red-hot iron rod had punctured the tight balloon, Liang Hui's brain exploded, he snorted, and his back and arms swelled uncontrollably.

Light cyan scales grew on Liang Hui's face, arms, and thighs, and the well-tailored Western-style dress was quickly torn, and under the candlelight, the shadow on the floor stretched out to the old high......

I don't know how long it took for Liang Hui to wake up.

He was lying on the bed, the towel on his forehead was still warm, so that he was surprised that it was Zhen Lian, a woman who was sitting on the edge of the bed and taking care of him.

Liang Hui sat up, removed the wet towel that was half on his head, and asked in a deep voice, "What about Your Majesty?" ”

"The gentleman is gone, and he says you've got your fair share."

Zhen Lian smiled gently.

Liang Hui lifted the futon and got out of bed, walked to the window with his shoes on, and took a deep breath in the face of the moonlight. Only then did he turn around: "Do you have anything to say to me?" Zhen Xiangu? ”

"He's leaving the city."

Liang Hui couldn't help but be moved when he heard it: "Who? Your Majesty? Why?! ”

As soon as the words fell, he realized his gaffe. immediately restrained his violent tone and waited for Zhen Lian's next words.

"Why are you so nervous?" Zhen Lian narrowed his eyes, "Do you care about a living blue-clothed emperor, or a devil who can give you endless wealth and longevity?" ”

Before she finished her words, Liang Hui's face suddenly approached in front of her, and Zhen Lian hurriedly retreated to the corner in fright.

"Watch your words, fairy girl......"

Liang Hui lowered his eyelids, he slowly retracted his face, and threw the towel in his hand into the copper basin on the table.

Zhen Lian didn't give up, but instead accentuated his tone inwardly: "Come on, Liang, I know him better than you." He doesn't care if you're loyal or not! Everything you and I have no meaning to him! If you have the kung fu to fiddle with your little bit of caution, you might as well please the guy surnamed Cha, who is much easier to fool than our blue-clothed emperor! ”

Liang Hui stared at Zhen Lian for a long time before he sneered: "Fairy Gu is drunk, I didn't hear what I said just now, nothing else, I'll go first." ”

After speaking, Liang Hui was about to leave, and seeing that he had walked to the door, Zhen Lian stopped him: "You just left?" ”

Liang Hui didn't look back: "Is there anything else, Immortal Gu?" ”

Zhen Lian walked towards Liang Hui with cat steps and whispered: "The cold devil is about to leave, but the name of the blue-clothed emperor will not disappear." ”

She shook the glass bottle in her hand in front of Liang Hui's eyes. "With these medicines, how long do you think I'll be able to grow the Red Lantern Society?" ”

“……”

Liang Hui's eyes moved with the medicine bottle in Zhen Lian's hand, he slowly turned around, and his tone softened a little: "What are you going to say to me?" ”

"We had some misunderstandings in the past. But there is no misunderstanding that cannot be solved. ”

Zhen Lian stared at Liang Hui: "The Red Lantern Society and Hesheng can cooperate for a long time." ”

"The premise is that I give you the power of the bloodline."

Liang Hui continued the next sentence.

The Ortonk family can share the power of the bloodline with people outside the family, but that person's descendants will only be ordinary ordinary people, and they cannot inherit this power forever like Ortonk.

Zhen Lian shrugged his shoulders, meaning you were right.

"Yes, but you also give me half of the medicine."

Liang Hui's face does not change color.

"Don't pretend to be garlic with me, old fellow." Zhen Lian sneered again and again: "Now the people from Pinkerton Detective Company are investigating you across the state, and you are throwing a lot of money out to whitewash yourself, but because of the promulgation of the new law, the effect is almost zero." If Pinkerton's detectives find evidence of your crimes, I'm afraid you'll spend the rest of your life in a prison cell. Or are you going to use your newfound bloodline power to break through the nets with the city's steam guard? ”

Pinkerton Detective Company, is the world's earliest detective company, it has long been active in the Civil War, for the country to collect military intelligence of the Southern separatist forces, after the war, it has been transformed into a vanguard force in the fight against western crime, now it can be said that Pinkerton Detective Company was the most prosperous era since its establishment, with more than 5,000 detectives trained by steam soldiers, can be called the world's most powerful private law enforcement agency.

Liang Hui listened, and pondered for a long time before saying: "I have always felt that women can't do anything, it's my fault, you are a very powerful woman, Zhen Lian." ”

"Thank you."

"I promise you. Share the power of the bloodline with you. Liang Hui promised: "But you have to prove to me first that you have enough strength to use these drugs to settle the Pinkerton Company's pursuit of me." ”

"It's tracking us down."

Zhen Lianwan smiled.

Suddenly, she remembered something, "By the way, I heard that you organized a massive strike against the factories of San Francisco?" ”

"Originally, I had to stand on my feet, and the new law didn't give me a way to live. Of course I have to find a way, but if His Majesty is going to leave us......"

Liang Hui bowed his head and was silent.

"You should do that, Your Majesty will support you."

Zhen Lian persuaded him: "You should also call on the people of Chinatown to buy weapons for self-defense; Monuments were carved for the victims of atrocities, and a grand memorial ceremony was held to unite the Chinese merchants and workers in the city; Win over those mild-mannered whites, hire lawyers to sue the police for inaction, and claim compensation from the perpetrators. holding massive strikes and speeches to put pressure on the town hall; Demand equal pay for equal work among Chinese people. Even the right to vote. ”

Liang Hui frowned and asked, "Why do you think Your Majesty will support me?" Is it just his appearance? ”

"The relationship between Mr. Cha and our Majesty is very close, I can't be sure of His Majesty's likes and dislikes, but Mr. Cha, uh, he is a very straightforward person......"

After a pause, Zhen Liancai said: "For example, you paid out of your own pocket to fight lawsuits against your fellow villagers, paid them relief money and funeral expenses, and spent a lot of money to reward the murderer who killed the Chinese, I heard Mr. Cha praise you, saying that although you are not a good thing, you have finally done a few good things for the Chinese." ”

Liang Hui disagreed: "Most of the dead workers have visited the door of Hesheng, and it is also appropriate to help orphans and widows." ”

"It's all good. Importantly, if Mr. Cha thinks of you like this, then His Majesty will not hate it. You should work harder. ”

Liang Hui listened and weighed it for a long time before finally nodding.

"That's it?"

In the night, Cha Xiaodao and Li Yan walked side by side beside the railroad tracks.

"It's not close, but it's not too much." Li Yan took off the bowler hat on his head and fanned himself.

"I always feel that you are very cold to Zhen Lian and Liang Hui, why?"

Zha Xiaodao asked.

"Because it's not a problem that can be solved with a little more passion and a little romance. The mercenary person is simple and complex. I hate being used as a gunman, and I hate not being a human inside or out. I can't solve Liang Hui and Zhen Lian's troubles, and I'm not interested in solving them. Didn't we say we were going to take a breath? I'll bet on that. ”

"Bet with whom?"

Li Yan threw his hat high.

"Chang Yu."
