Chapter 514: Alliance
The faces of the people at this table are calm, and they are afraid that they are calculating quickly, lest they fall into the other party's trap or be used as a knife.
This is also the first time that Mingyi has recognized the real Shentu brothers. Without the gangsterism on their faces, without the impulsiveness and murderous aura that filled their surroundings, these two were indeed the choice of leaders, calm, cautious, thoughtful and courageous and decisive.
Her palms were sweaty and her body was hot, as if she had to activate her whole self to compete with the two people in front of her.
Xia Huanfeng never let her down, and gently patted the back of her hand, not in a hurry, conveying a strong message: It's okay, there is me.
She glanced at Xia Huanfeng gratefully, but saw that sweat was oozing slightly from the bridge of his nose.
The corners of Shen Tu's mouth curled up again, and his smile was a little chilling: "Gang Master Feng's good plan really made me listen to it. But I'm a rough person, I understand that private salt can make money, and I understand that doing workshops can make money, but I can't figure out how much money it is. The most important thing is that although it is good to make money, you can't just look at money as a gang, right? ”
Shen Tuyi also opened his mouth: "It seems that the Feng Gang Master is worthy of being a businessman, and he is really good at making money." We are not refusing to do business together, but the Feng Gang Master proposed the matter of the three families before, it seems that he not only wants to do business with us, but also wants the Shentu family to escort the Shangguan gang, or cooperate with each other. This matter involves the safety of the middle and upper brothers in my gang, I have to consider it carefully, and I also ask the Feng gang leader to forgive me. ”
Ming Yi closed her eyes, and now, she has to get out of the way, the bigger the cowhide, the better!
"The two gang leaders are right, I, Feng Mingyi, am a businessman, and I can't get rid of the nature of a businessman in my bones. And the Shentu family is mostly good men with different minds. That's why it's seamless. I take profit, and you take the world. I have lived in Chang'an for more than 20 years, and I can use ten years to bury Wu Qianping's line, and naturally there are other lines. I don't dare to say it, as long as the Shentu family is willing to support my Shangguan gang, I have my own way to let our two factions get a new and stronger help in the imperial court, and let the Tianyi gang be trapped in Hangzhou forever and unable to turn over. Ming Yi's words were scorching, and he didn't show any weakness in his heart.
Brother Shentu was silent for a while, and Shentu opened his mouth: "When does the Feng Gang Master need us to send people to Yangzhou, and when to enter Chang'an?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Ming Yi was determined, and silently let out a long breath: "The sooner the matter of entering Yangzhou, the better, my Xiaohan is going to get married, and the brothers in Yangzhou will take this opportunity to enter Chang'an to celebrate." It will be about ten days before I will set off, and I will trouble the helper to send someone over with my letter and give it to the prince. She arranged the guards, and the private salt business was also arranged by her. ”
Shen Tu was surprised again: "Big wedding? Do you want to marry Master Wu as a flat wife? ”
Ming Yi shook his head: "At the beginning of the time when I was helping people, it was just to avoid people's eyes and ears and make it easier to act." ”
When these words were spoken, Mingyi's heart twitched hard, it was painful and stuffy, and he was about to lose his breath.
Shen Tuyi was finally willing to give the truth: "My two deputy gangs are currently lurking in Chang'an, I will pass the book and arrange for the two of them to visit the Feng gang leader." At that time, what do you need them to do, and how to arrange for me to help the people enter Chang'an, just talk to him and the two. ”
At this point, there is no need to say more. Zuo is just another big meal, singing and dancing. Although the Shentu brothers repeatedly invited the two to stay for a few more days and enjoy the autumn colors in Luoyang, Mingyi was already exhausted and would rather run around on the way than deal with these two people more.
At the last moment of the send-off wine, a person from the hall hurriedly came to report that there was something urgent.
When Shen Tu saw that the two of them were present, he said that he wanted to cooperate seamlessly, so he naturally had to have some gestures, and said: "There are no outsiders, if there is something, I will say it." ”
The man replied: "Something happened in Xingyang, Mrs. Lu clamored to go to Chang'an to find her husband, but no one could stop her, so she had to lock her in the house, she climbed the window in the middle of the night to escape, fell in the garden, the child in her womb was not saved, and Mrs. Lu was also crazy." ”
Xia Huanfeng's face turned pale, he naturally knew that Mrs. Lu was Zheng Hao's sweetheart, and the blood in her abdomen was the blood of the Zheng family. But what if it's already here? He glanced at Shen Tu again, and tears fell: "How can I explain to Brother Zheng!" ”
Shen Tu knew that his own family was not taking good care of him, and sighed: "Phantom Feng, I have failed your entrustment for my brother, but how to deal with this." ”
Xia Huanfeng looked helpless, and pressed his heart: "You let them take a good look at Mrs. Lu, and don't have anything happening." I found an opportunity to talk to Brother Zheng, and said that Mrs. Lu was sick and didn't save the child. ”
Seeing this, Ming Yi said: "I can still talk a few words with the eldest princess, but she is infatuated with the horse. I am looking for an opportunity to bring harmony between the princess and the concubine, and if the princess can conceive a child, the concubine should not be too concerned about the Lu family's affairs. ”
Mingyi clenched his hands into fists, his nails clasped into his palms. She did say this on purpose, to show that her connections in Chang'an had reached the level of friendship with the eldest princess. And if the eldest princess is in harmony with Zheng Haoqinse, it will really be beneficial to her, and she doesn't want to affect the relationship between Zheng Hao and Xia Huanfeng because of the Lu family's affairs.
can say coldly that Zheng Hao will not care about the children of the Lu family because of the princess's children, this kind of words are natural in the ears of the Shentu brothers. Mingyi himself knows that Zheng Hao really loves the Lu family, and no one can replace him and the Lu family. But he wants to belittle the relationship between the two of them so much, but so what? She can even take out the relationship between herself and Shi Chuchu, and say it lightly, avoiding people's eyes.
She really admires and hates her current self.
Leaving Luoyang, Mingyi had an urge to go straight to Yangzhou.
She didn't want to go back to Chang'an so soon, and she didn't want to go to the place that made her nervous everywhere. She wanted to go back to Yangzhou and then to Changzhou. went to the side of the bridge at the beginning of the day, waiting for the figure she thought about day and night to appear. Go to the canal, watch the thousands of sails pass by, the water ripples, sit all day, and think about nothing.
Perhaps, when I got there, I found Ling Hulun at the beginning of the time. She will suddenly let go of all her obsessions and ambitions in the small town south of the Yangtze River in the first snow, no longer worry about the situation in ten years, live one day at a time, hold the hand of the beginning of the time, live in a small hut by the stone bridge, and be the most ordinary couple.
Maybe forever is just maybe, and imagination will only be imagined at last. She still went all the way to Chang'an, saw the withered people's livelihood, the beggars along the street, the skinny old man, and the unclothed woman, all romantic imagination dispersed without a trace. She must win, never worry about a cup of tea or a meal, and never be afraid of the force of any feudal warlord.
