Chapter 97: Li Gang repeatedly
Great Song Dynasty, Qiongxing, Qiongzhou Thorn History.
Li Gang had just gotten off the government at noon and was preparing to have lunch at home, when the housekeeper in the house greeted him and said in a low voice: "Master, the shopkeeper of Tongji Trading House is here, and I will arrange him to wait in the master's study." ”
"Oh!" Li Gang's originally plain expression suddenly froze, and he nodded with a slightly solemn face, and went directly to his study.
Pushing the door in, I saw the shopkeeper sitting on the Taishi chair behind his desk, nodded to him with a faint smile, and said, "Li Tingshi is finally back, hehe, the little one has been waiting here for half an hour." ”
Although he claimed to be small, the expression on his face was not at all humble, and he sat in the master's place with a big thorn, and he did not get up.
Li Gang's face was slightly gloomy, but he seemed to have been trying to suppress the anger in his heart, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper Tong has been waiting for a long time, I don't know what is the so-called matter of coming this time?"
Seeing that Li Gang wanted to be angry but didn't dare to be angry, the shopkeeper Tong seemed to be very happy, and said with a smile: "Li Tingshi is really a noble person who forgets things, didn't he say it last time, about Lord Thorn Shi and the evil king Yu Zhao Di The small things have already been known." The lord deliberately let go of the sinner Zhao Di, causing him to go to the Great Shang to collude with the king of Shang in an attempt to subvert my Great Song Dynasty. However, the master of my family is not from the official family of the Great Song Dynasty, so he doesn't care about this kind of thing, he only hopes that Lord Assassin Shi can find a way to trap Zhao Di and bring him to the court for execution. ”
Li Gang naturally refused to admit the other party's remarks, after all, the other party did not come up with any strong evidence to prove that there was collusion between himself and Zhao Di, so he snorted coldly: "The matter of Zhao Di absconding in fear of the crime of the evil king will be pursued by the Ming Sheng, all of this is just a moment of negligence by the official, so that the other party absconded with Confucius, don't bite indiscriminately." ”
"Haha, haha, who believes this when it comes out! But forget it, my master has also explained, we don't want to care about the assassination of Lord Shi and the remnant Zhao Di, but the pursuit of Zhao Di must be carried out immediately. This time, the little one came to inform Lord Assassin Shi that the remnants of the evil king had already left to return to Qiongxing, and it is estimated that he should be able to arrive today, so what should I do next, I don't need to remind the adults of the little one, right?"
"Huh?"
Li Gang's eyes flashed, obviously he didn't expect the other party to be so well-informed, you must know that he had just received a summons from Zhao Di not long ago, saying that he had returned to Qiongxing today, and he had just received the news here, but the other party had received accurate information a few hours ago, and came to his house in advance to wait.
What does this mean?
Obviously, the other party has already monitored Zhao Di's every move, and this is a targeted preparation to deal with Zhao Di.
Li Gang was a little shocked in his heart, he didn't know why the other party wanted to target Zhao Di like this, but he had to make a choice.
The other party was obviously only targeting Zhao Di alone, and did not count himself, otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to find him, and use the relationship between himself and Zhao Di as a threat to force himself to capture Zhao Di.
After all, he and Zhao Di are in the same group, if you want to implicate yourself, just find someone from Bianjing to do it, why bother to alarm yourself!
At the same time, the other party revealed Zhao Di's whereabouts, probably telling himself not to have any luck.
From the fact that the other party was able to monitor Zhao Di throughout the whole process and infiltrated both countries, it can be seen that the other party is strong.
Such a powerful force is so aimed at Zhao Di, is it necessary for him to offend the other party for Zhao Di?
Can you afford to offend yourself?
To tell the truth, Li Gang was fooled by Zhao Di before on the road of self-respect, mainly because he had a bad breath in his chest, and felt that he was thrown by Emperor Song in the barren frontier of Qiongxing Domain, regardless of more than ten years, he was completely abandoned by Emperor Song, and the jealousy in his chest was burning, so he followed Zhao Di to do this murderous business.
After a long time, when he came back to his senses, he had been unsteady in his heart, after all, he was not really a hero with that kind of ambition, at most he was a little greedy and insufficient, so after a long time, the fear in his heart gradually took over, and his mind naturally calmed down.
It's a pity that once this one is taken, it will be difficult to turn back, and Li Gang can only take one step at a time with trepidation.
However, now the appearance of the shopkeeper Tong seems to have given him a turning point, maybe it is not a good choice to eradicate the hidden danger of Zhao Di with the help of the mysterious power of the shopkeeper Tong.
You must know that you are trapped in the Qiongxing Star Domain because you have to guard Zhao Di, the henchman of Emperor Song, once Zhao Di is eradicated, then his mission will be completed, maybe Emperor Song will be able to return to Bianjing step by step in the sake of his dedication to him for so many years!
As for what Zhao Di said about the depth of Bianjing and his shallow foundation, these are all considered later, at least Li Gang does not think that his political skills are so bad, as long as he can be transferred back to Bianjing, he will definitely be able to mix well.
Therefore, Zhao Di must be eliminated, and now that he is cooperating with the force behind the shopkeeper Tong, I believe that Zhao Di must be in a catastrophe.
After Li Gang had a plan in his heart, his attitude naturally changed, and he said: "What the shopkeeper Tong said is true?
Looking at the surprised expression on Li Gang's face, Shopkeeper Tong gave him a look of deep disdain, and said, "It's a pity that Lord Assassin Shi doesn't go to act, will you not know the whereabouts of this thief?"
Although he was sarcastically ridiculed by the other party, Li Gang looked calm, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all, and he wouldn't admit any collusion between himself and Zhao Di when he was killed.
Obviously, Shopkeeper Tong also knew Li Gang's caution, and after a sarcastic sentence, he no longer cared, and continued: "Anyway, this thief will definitely return to Qiongxing today, and my master said that if Lord Assassin Shi doesn't do it this time, then he will do it to you, Lord Li." The little one has already brought the words, how to choose depends on you, Lord Thorn Shi, farewell!"
After saying this, the shopkeeper Tong got up directly and arched his hand slightly to Li Gang, and then threw his sleeves away.
Li Gang stared at the other party pushing the door out, looking at the back of the other party leaving, his face changed for a while, and finally exhaled slightly, walked to the desk with a calm face and sat down, and shouted: "Someone!"
The head of the Li Mansion immediately came out of nowhere, came to the door of the study and said, "Master!"
Li Gang said in a deep voice: "Go and invite General Shangguan to come, just say that I have something important to discuss with him." ”
