It was cloudy, the red sun was not visible, the sky was gray and blue, and a few dim clouds floated between the sea and the sky. A pointed-nosed dinghy sailed unquickly and slowly on the calm waters, and occasionally a seagull flew curiously close to the dinghy, and soon flew away.

Lei Peng told Cheng Haofeng about Kuaisenxiong's repeated incidents, Cheng Haofeng asked him not to have a head-on conflict with Kuaisen Xiong for the time being, and only needed to send more ships to patrol to ensure that they did not come to seize the territory, after all, now the "Xiongwang" is a force to support and contain pirates and contain Dongying.

On the first day of September, one of the small boats was patrolling as usual, and the soldiers standing on the bow of the boat and observing the surroundings vaguely saw a large ship approaching.

The big ship gradually approached the small boat, and the water waves shook violently, like surging wind and waves, and he could see clearly that it was the iron armored giant ship of the male king!

The ironclad giant ships with sturdy hulls and fast sailing speed are usually the warships of the regular army, and in the personal power on the eastern seas, only Kuaimori has ironclad warships.

The soldiers waved flags and warned the giant ship not to come any closer. The flag is embroidered with a golden "law" word, and the golden Dapeng pattern is embroidered around the word, and all the ships in this sea area are clear, which represents the defense line under the rule of General Lei Peng of the French Dynasty, and civilian ships and foreign ships are not allowed to break in.

The flags fluttered, and the soldiers changed several gestures, and the warning meaning represented became more and more severe each time, but the ironclad giant ship still ignored it and went on a rampage.

The flag-bearer stopped warning and told his companions in the dinghy to take out their bows and arrows and aim them at the men on the deck of the giant ship.

The rain of arrows whizzed out, and the people on the giant ship had already prepared shields to resist, and the huge ship stopped advancing.

When the soldiers on the dinghy thought that the people on the giant ship would retreat in the face of difficulties, the huge ship suddenly accelerated, and the two sides of the boat set off white waves that shot like water cannons, and the stern of the ship was like a dragon swinging its tail, and the bow of the ship suddenly turned towards the sky!

The ironclad ship slammed into the dinghy with unstoppable force, and in an instant pieces of wood flew in all directions, and the monstrous waves drowned out the screams.

In just a few blinks of an eye, the ironclad giant ship sailed away from the sea, and the sea water bubbled red, and then it was decomposed by the blue sea, leaving only the broken wooden planks drifting.

Blatantly provoking the imperial army, after Lei Peng received the report, he raised his eyebrows, strode out of the house and went to the naval office, ready to order all the warships and generals, and encircle and suppress Kuai Morixiong.

The deputy general rushed to dissuade him, and asked people to contact Cheng Haofeng quickly, and Lei Peng agreed to wait for a while and make a decision after discussion.

After Cheng Haofeng arrived, he said straight to the point: "I have a better way than to encircle and suppress Kuai Senxiong, but you are in anger at the moment and will not listen to me." Let's listen to the reason why you can't attack Kuaimori head-on? ”

Lei Peng is not a reckless person, and he respects Cheng Haofeng very much, he took off his armor and sent his cronies to the hall to discuss matters carefully.

The patrol boat was smashed and his comrades were killed in the sea, and all the generals were indignant.

Looking around at them, Cheng Haofeng said calmly and majestically: "Generals, why did Kuai Mori Xiong develop and grow? In order to collect and surrender the pirates scattered everywhere for evil to protect the peace of the sea, and also to deter Dongying, we attacked Kuai Mori Xiong with great fanfare, and both sides were defeated, who was happy? "

No one answered, it was obvious that Dongying and the pirates would be happy, their expressions were no longer so angry, and they listened to Cheng Haofeng continue.

Seeing that they were calm, Cheng Haofeng said loudly again: "We can't spend manpower and material resources to encircle and suppress, and we can't let Kuai Senxiong act recklessly, we must find other forces to teach him a lesson for us, and second, we must cultivate forces that can be restrained to replace him!" ”

The generals agreed, and next, Lei Peng made specific arrangements. After he returned home, he had a secret conversation with Cheng Haofeng again.

Cheng Haofeng asked Blood No Hatred and Lei Peng to go to the small courtyard rented by Bud on the outskirts of the capital to meet Kuai Lier, and to make Kuai Lier's chess piece alive, it is not possible to do it without sincerity and strength.

The arrangement was set, Cheng Haofeng returned to Ruixianju, and Bloody Hatred and Lei Peng secretly went to the outskirts of the capital, and after seeing Bao Bao, he asked him to incite Kuai Lier's ambition to be in charge, and looked for an opportunity for Kuai Lier to meet and discuss.

Before this, Bao Bao was trusted by Kuai Lier and knew a lot of hidden secrets about the Kuai family's affairs, and exaggerated the "escort fee" of the Kuai family's merchant ships at sea and some small disputes with the "male king", and instigated Kuai Lier to go to Kuai Diancong to solve it together.

This can also be regarded as paving the way for Cheng Haofeng's current arrangement, but Kuai Lier does not seem to have the ambition to compete for the position of the Kuai family in charge of this matter.

After being in charge, Kuai Diancong often practiced indoors, and did not ask much about business matters, Kuai Lier held most of the real power, but when it came to major events, Kuai Diancong had to suppress the senior elders, and the uncle and nephew had been harmonious, and there was no sign of contention.

Kuai Diancong was very indifferent to these things, and Kuai Lier also knew that King Xiong was her grandfather Kuai Senxiong, so she didn't care about it anymore.

A few days later, Bao Bao fed back the situation to Lei Peng and Blood Wuqiu, and they were also a little anxious, and it seemed that it was difficult to provoke the Kuai family's infighting to weaken or even get rid of Kuai Morixiong's plan.

Blood has no revenge, so he had to send a spirit talisman to Cheng Haofeng to ask what to do next.

Cheng Haofeng replied, and asked Bao Bao to take Kuai Li'er to the Yunqing Courtyard, and Lei Peng and Blood Wuqi went to ask for a meeting, and there was a turnaround.

In the Yunqing courtyard, a lot of important things happened to the Kuai family, and after the reconstruction, the scenery was better, and Kuai Lier was full of emotion.

Listening to the servant's confession, Lei Peng and Blood Wuqi came to ask for a meeting, Kuai Lier thought for a moment and agreed to meet in the flower hall.

If it was just Lei Peng coming, she didn't want to see it, the affairs of the sea had no direct stake in her, but the blood was innocent, and her reason couldn't overcome her heart.

Most people in the world say that they don't care about power, but they must not have felt the pleasure of holding power, and it is difficult to let go of it.

In addition to the natural advantage of the daughter of the Kuai family, what else is there to be proud of? Zhuo Wuao and Blood Wuqi were not interested in her, and now she also felt that she was boring at that time.

At this time, it doesn't matter if she is still interested in Blood Innocence, the important thing is that she does not put attracting Blood Hatred in the first place in her life.

She was still moved by the blood without hatred, but she only longed to see him, and she would not give up her own interests because of him.

Of course, Cheng Haofeng did not make this arrangement to let Blood Wuxuan confuse her, as long as he could meet her smoothly and make her not resist the negotiation, I believe that Lei Peng has the ability to persuade her.

Lei Peng said a lot about the defense of the sea frontier, and said that Kuai Morixiong only tried to expand his power, regardless of the safety of the French Dynasty, and also destroyed the normal passage of sea lanes.

Listening with a smile, he didn't show his attitude, and when Lei Peng said that his mouth was dry, Kuai Lier asked with a smile: "The emperor's wanted warrant is like a joke for Cheng Haofeng, and now he is no longer a national teacher, but he is still in power." However, what benefits can I get from being used? ”

didn't expect her to ask so bluntly, Lei Peng was stunned, this delicate woman is worthy of being the granddaughter of Kuaimori Xiong, she can figure out what she is doing, she is not hypocritical or entangled.

After thinking for a moment, Lei Peng said: "It's not you who is really being used, but Kuai Diancong." As for the interests, Kuai Mori Xiong is really dead, Kuai Diancong has collapsed, who will have the final say? Your uncles, aunts, and siblings who haven't been through the storm are clearly no match for you. ”

"Oh, the interests are the position of the head of the Kuai family and the position of the leader of the Shadow Alliance? I'm not that rare! Now that my eighth uncle is facing some difficult things, I just have to reap the benefits behind my back, which is worry-free and affordable, and I have a very nourishing life. If you jump out and officially take over the Kuai family and the Shadow Alliance, it will become the target of public criticism, and for me as a woman, then it is too tiring to live. ”

Kuailier's expression was calm, and she didn't prevaricate and make clumsy excuses, everything in the Kuai family was originally dominated by her, and there was no need to pay too much for it.

Lei Peng had a headache, rubbed his temples and looked at the blood without hatred. Blood Wuqi shook his head, he didn't have a good way to persuade Ku Li'er.

"If I didn't want to benefit from this matter, you wouldn't be able to convince me." Clarier smiled coquettishly, "I'll tell you what I want!" First, help me find a panacea for a youthful complexion; Second, give me the ability and privilege to come and go as I go in and out of your place called 'Black Ball', and third, if I encounter people who can't be suppressed in the Kuai family in the future, you have no hatred and you have to come to help me in person. ”

After listening to her, Blood Wuqi frowned, the first two are not difficult, they can be solved more easily by Cheng Haofeng, and the third one does not seem to be difficult, but it is actually the most difficult. is a community of interests, and it is natural for Kuai Lier to come to help support her when she encounters difficulties, but I am afraid that she will use this as an excuse to use trivial things in three days to annoy blood without hatred.

Lei Peng didn't notice that the first two of the three conditions did not mention who would implement them, as long as someone on their side could do it, but the third article specified that he would personally solve it without hatred, and he didn't think much about it, he readily agreed, and it was too late to oppose it.

After setting up the matter, they left Beijing, and Kuai Lier carried out the plan step by step.

was busy, Cao Beidao sent someone to ask her to enjoy chrysanthemums, and Kuai Lier smiled contemptuously at the little Taoist boy who came: "Cao Zhenren invited me to appreciate chrysanthemums?" If you want to go, you can, let Cao Zhenren choose a clean and undisturbed place, prepare the tea and pastries first, and I will tell you when the sky comes, so that he doesn't have to come three or five times. ”

She was bitterly infatuated with Zhuo Wuao and Blood Wufang, but Cao Beidao tried every means to please her, which only made her feel that Cao Beidao was entangled and annoying.

Kuai Lier instructed her cronies to spread some rumors to Kuai Diancong's ears, so that Kuai Diancong knew that Kuai Sen Xiong was not dead, and he was already the "male king" across the sea.

Kuai Diancong didn't seem to care about this, but one day he suddenly asked his subordinates to grab Bao Bao to meet in the secret room.

Intuition A lot of things were noticed by Kuai Diancong, Bao Bao didn't struggle, he didn't quibble, waiting for him to take the initiative to interrogate.

Waving his hand to send the left and right people, Kuai Diancong said: "Wealth is like a floating cloud to me, I don't want to be pretentious, I really see through!" Cheng Haofeng took advantage of Kuai Morixiong, and Kuai Morixiong relied on his connections and experience in maritime commerce and trade, plus the old forces of Lu Huanbang and Dongying, to grow rapidly. A wolf who is unwilling to be used fights with a tiger that does not allow chess pieces to run around, and the tiger wants to fight the wolf with a jackal. You want me to be a jackal, don't you? "

In the past, there were common interests, but now there is a conflict of interest, Cheng Haofeng really wants to use Kuai Diancong to get rid of Kuai Senxiong. Bao Bao was shocked into a cold sweat, irrefutable.
