Chapter Seventy-Eight: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
The pavilions and pavilions of Jinghonglou are intertwined with red shadows, and its scenery is wonderful, which is a famous elegance of Zengcheng's luxury nightlife, and it is also the industry of the Meng family.
In the luxuriously furnished private room, four or five men in brocade clothes gathered together, Shen Jinian's eyebrows were furrowed tightly, and he shouted impatiently: "What does Meng Chongguang mean by calling us here?" It's been an hour, and no one is there, so can't I get sick? ”
"Didn't you ask us to discuss the matter of auditing the accounts? A little wind and grass will mess up, just with the little woman of the Ye family, what can she find out? I'm too nervous! "A middle-aged man with a slender figure and an elegant appearance on the side, he is Jiang Yeyang, the new head of the Jiang family who took over the Jiang family's industry.
Shen Jinian thought of Bai Shengxin, and his heart was on fire, the Bai family was just an ordinary merchant family more than ten years ago, since Bai Shengxin, a business wizard, a few treacherous and cunning people are not as good as a little doll, and they are compared to the old people.
slapped the table and said angrily, "Then let him check, I don't believe that the Bai family is clean, there are contacts with different governments, and his Bai family has been able to save such a big family business for more than ten years." ”
"Yes, since he wants to check our accounts, we should also check his Bai family's accounts, I don't believe that we can't pull him Bai Shengxin down." Jiang Yeyang echoed.
There has been no sound on the side, about fifty years, dark brown dark pattern dress, Nangong Fu, the head of the Nangong family, but his brows are deeply locked, he has always been calm and calm, and he will not comment arbitrarily.
At this time, there was a sound at the door, and everyone looked towards the source of the sound, but saw a pair of young men and women walking in from inside the door, and the father and son of the Meng family followed closely behind.
The man was dressed in black, not handsome, with resolute lines on his face, a tall posture, and a strong masculine atmosphere.
A young woman, dressed in a purple shirt tightly wrapped in a graceful figure, her eyes are like ghosts with points and bewitching ~ charming. Under the white veil, the naked ~ exposed skin is as smooth and delicate as jade.
Shengsheng grabbed ~ Jiang Yeyang's eyes. Even if you are used to seeing Jiangnan people, such a graceful and bewitching ~ beautiful woman is also eye-catching.
Hurriedly stood up, looked up and down, and said to Meng Chongguang behind him: "I don't know who the two are?" ”
Meng Chongguang was not sick at all, looking at the lewd light in Jiang Yeyang's eyes, he knew for a while that this was a poisonous poppy that could not be touched.
"These two are envoys sent by your capital. This is the order of the crown prince, and the Chamber of Commerce is responsible for supervision. ”
They cooperated with the Wei family to help the officials of the DPRK and China to write off their accounts and launder money, the collusion between officials and businessmen is against the law of the country, and they have a tacit understanding with each other, the Wei family will never intervene, the interests of the imperial court are there, and the supervision of Jiangnan is blind to one eye.
Shen Jinian was already very displeased, and when he heard Meng Chongguang's words, he could be furious and said, "What does this mean? Our four major families have cooperated with the Wei family for decades, don't you believe us now? It is also necessary to send someone to supervise it. ”
Meng Chongguang was speechless, and looked at Pei Zhen, who looked at the three so-called family heads in front of him, "The prince is in charge of the country, and he has issued a decree to set up a business yamen in Jiangnan, and I will manage everyone in the future." ”
"Since ancient times, officials have not spoken of business, and the prince is so clear that he is coming for our business association."
"So what? Whoever made you unable to keep the position of the leader of the alliance, now give you two ways, one is that the imperial court will send someone to the chamber of commerce to be fully responsible for supervision, and the other is that the three of you will join forces to put the Meng family in the position of the leader of the alliance. ”
The strength of the Meng family is equal to that of the three of them, Shen Jinian is naturally displeased, and they have a great hope of winning the alliance leader this year, "Why should we let it!" ”
Suddenly, the cold light white blade was sent from Qiu Tong's fingertips, slashing the wrist between the neck and the forehead and submerging into the body.
The three of them all felt that something had entered their bodies, and at this time, even Jiang Yeyang began to be afraid, and his eyebrows were slightly swollen.
"You witch, what are you going to put into us?"
Qiu Tong raised his eyebrows coldly, with disdain, disdain for ignorance, "You have fallen into the Gu, if you are not obedient, you will taste the taste of devouring your heart and rotting bones." ”
Shen Jinian couldn't care about the pain in his neck, and wanted to choke Qiu Tong's neck, "Come back the antidote!" "I was injured by Qiu Tong's palm and fell to the ground.
"I don't know if I'm alive or dead!"
Take out the Gu flute from the sleeve, like gurgling ~ gurgling water, soft ~ soft notes floating in the hall, Shen Jinian curled up and rolled on the ground tormentedly, wailing in his mouth, "I'm obedient, I'm obedient!" ”
Qiu Tong took the Gu flute, don't torture to death when you are old, "Do you choose the Meng family as the leader of the alliance, or the government will sit in the formation and choose!" ”
Regardless of which of the five is the leader of the alliance, the right is still in the Chamber of Commerce, and the four are profitable, if the government accesses, most of the rights will be lost, and it is not conducive to the development of Jiangnan.
Pei Zhen is unwilling to sit in Jiangnan for a long time, his wife and children are still in the capital, and the best way is to find an obedient stand-in to calm the prince's heart. As long as the Meng family can take the position of alliance leader, he will complete the task.
Of course, all three families chose to support the Meng family in competing for the position of alliance leader, which was also expected by Pei Zhen.
Early the next morning, Xuanyuan had already learned everything that had happened in the Jinghong Mansion last night, and the prince's people finally made a move. Next, he may attack the people of the Bai family, which requires Li Ge to take action, only a witch doctor can detoxify Gu poison, Li Ge is a medicine doctor, but he is a bloodthirsty Gu worm that can cure a hundred Gu.
After Mu Bangshang left Li Ge last night, he had been thinking about revenge, and he had already thought of countermeasures, sorted out the account books overnight, hurriedly had breakfast, and took the account books to the study.
I didn't expect to meet Li Ge at the door, my eyes were happy, but I still remembered my identity, they were now in the Bai family's mansion.
The two of them just bowed their heads, Li Ge pushed open the door, and the two entered side by side.
Xuanyuan saw that the two of them came together, as if they had made an appointment, and frowned slightly.
Mu Bangshang stepped forward and said, "I've seen the prince, I just met him at the door." ”
Li Ge didn't feel the need to explain, pulled her sleeve and pulled her behind him, "I don't know what happened to the prince?" ”
"The prince's people have already made a move, they want to push the Meng family to the position of the leader of the alliance, and maybe they will pay attention to the Bai family."
"Whether or not Ge will take action to detoxify those people, without the help of those three families, it is in vain for the Meng family to take the position of alliance leader."
Xuanyuan had already made a plan and was ready to use Bai Shengxin to lure them in.
Mu Bangshang couldn't hold back a little, "Lord Wang, do you want to use Bai Shengxin to lure the prince into the game?" Aren't you afraid that your subordinates will be cold? It's better to change to a little girl! I know both Qiu Tong and Pei Zhen, and you will only suffer a little bit of flesh and skin. ”
Xuanyuan and Li Ge's eyebrows became condensed, and they spoke at the same time, "No." ”
Xuanyuan knew that Mu Bangshang wanted to take revenge, "This king has already laid out the situation, if you want to take revenge, I know that this revenge king will give you revenge, and it will definitely make Pei Zhen die without a place to be buried." ”
"No, I can't do anything about the Xilin family's hatred, I can't shake the prince. But Pei Zhen's revenge for killing his younger brother must be avenged with his own hands. With resoluteness in his eyes, he hated Pei Zhen for a long time.
Mu Wanshang lifted her skirt and knelt directly on the ground, "Lord Wang, listen to the little girl, the little girl will definitely not destroy the prince's plan, otherwise you won't be able to kneel for a long time." ”
Mu Bangshang has the same stubborn temper as his father, if he doesn't agree, I'm afraid he will act without permission.
"Okay, get up quickly, this king promises you, let's think about it in the long run."
Li Ge knew that Xuanyuan had always been the same, and the decisions he made would never change, and he actually changed his plan for Mu Bangshang.
Li Ge stepped forward to help Mu Wanshang up, and then looked at King Yu with solemn eyes, "This matter is to be re-planned, and we can't put her in danger." ”
Xuanyuan decided not to rush to make a move first, this time in addition to keeping Bai Shengxin's position as the leader of the alliance, he also had to get the confessions of the four people.
"There are about ten days left before the day of electing the leader of the alliance, let's not rush to do it, let's wait and see what happens."
Glancing at Mu Bangsheng again, "The accounts I ordered you to write down earlier, you should be able to judge the accounts of those things and launder money, and sort out an account book for me." ”
In addition to discussing the plan of revenge, Mu Bangshang came to deliver the account book, presumably King Yu's share was also ready, and went to the account book from his arms and handed it over, "The number of people involved in it is 712 people, and the amount is billions of dollars, ranging from the big officials in the court to the local officials." There are also palace attendants, countless treasures flowed out in front of the emperor, and the Shen family's antique shops, pawnshops and jewelry marketing accounts were not only as simple as an empty treasury in the long run. ”
Xuanyuan didn't expect that Mu Bangshang had already prepared the account books, but what she said was so, her father was weak and incompetent, allowing the Wei family to mess with the government, conniving at the collusion between officials and businessmen, and profiting from it. The momentum of the wild Hu and the western tiger and wolf has coveted Dayin for a long time, and Dayin will be destroyed sooner or later in the hands of this mother and son.
Xuanyuan took the account book, not worrying about her, "Today you can go out for a walk, learn about the layout of Zeng Cheng's store, and let Yan Jiu accompany you." ”
"But he's my uncle now, I'm afraid it's not good!"
"Aren't you going to lure the snake out of its hole? I'm too busy as an older brother, so naturally I have to bother my brother to accompany you around. ”
"And the guards!" Mu Bangshang looked at Li Ge from the corner of his eyes and argued.
Xuanyuan frowned with great displeasure, "Today, I made an appointment with the four families to discuss the matter of checking the accounts, and the guards naturally stayed to protect the safety of the master." ”
Li Ge was on the side, without words, he knew Mu Bangsheng's intentions. You can't have a day or night, and the night market in Zengcheng is very beautiful.
Outside the door, Ye Zheng said, "Master, the people of the four major families have already headed towards the Bai Mansion, so you should prepare." ”
Today's discussion doesn't need her to come forward, she is a woman and her surname is difficult to convince the public, so let Yan Jiu accompany her well.
"Go, let's go! Go meet these old guys. ”
Li Ge followed behind Xuanyuan and looked at Mu Bangshang's beauty, "Shang, you can also go to Granny Qinshui!" ”
