"It's about trust." Lian Ming pursed his lips, "You should know that it is not easy for me to trust a person, so Zhao Wuwu came to me, and he asked me to trust her." After that, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly, slowly got up and stood with his hands in his hands, and finally let out a long sigh, "I have thought about this for a long time, but I have never been able to convince myself to believe in such a cunning person. ”

"Yao'er, Zhao Wuwu is too smart, if he knows too much, if one day he abandons the car and betrays you and me, then we will die without a place to bury. You must know that he is the son of Zhao Song, and he is as cunning as a fox, so you must guard against it. ”

Mu Yao thought for a while, "I also felt that I was too gullible earlier, but then I realized something. ”

Lian Ming was puzzled, "What did you find?" ”

"Zhao Wuwu has a very strange code of conduct, that is, how much trust you give him, he will return how much trust you have. If you doubt him, he will doubt you as well. Mu Yao smiled very well, "That is, if you trust him, he will trust you in turn." Of course, the premise is that trust you in matters concerning you. ”

"He has so many secrets on him that it's impossible to tell us and everything, but for what he promised, he will really do it. Even if he was far away, just by passing on the news in a few words, he was able to believe in me, and I understood that he was not a simple person, but a trustworthy ally. ”

Lian Ming's eyes narrowed, "You made me trust him?" ”

"You have a second rule, that is, to leave the capital and go back to Shucheng." Mu Yao smiled, "The choice is in your own hands, and the righteous brother can choose to retreat in the face of difficulties, and you don't have to help me." ”

Lian Ming sneered, "If you know the difficulties and retreat, why do you want to come here, and you have spent such a dark time in the Qiyou Palace." ”

Mu Yao blinked, "So, since the righteous brothers are here, why can't they give it a go." I'm sworn to my uncle. If I can't get an answer, I don't have the face to go back to Shucheng, and I don't have the face to see the ancestors of my Mu family. ”

"Good!" Lian Ming took a breath, "I don't believe Zhao Wuwu, I should believe you." ”

"At least my secret is in the palm of your hand, and if something happens to you, I won't be able to escape." Mu Yao smiled, "So brother Yi doesn't have to worry, my secret is also in Zhao Wuwu's palm, if he really wants to deal with me, he doesn't have to hide it." ”

"Now the relationship between the Zhao family and the Qi Yu Palace, you have seen it, as long as Zhao Wuwu said a word, we would have disappeared from the world a long time ago, how can we still sit here and talk in a good manner?"

Lian Ming nodded, "I know what to do." ”

"In Zhao Wuwu, all secrets will not be secrets." Mu Yao sighed lightly, "I'm nothing, I just want to know what happened back then, and I just want to give my uncle justice." ”

"My heart is the same as yours." Lian Ming's eyes were slightly gloomy, "I also want to know what happened back then." ”

Mu Yao was stunned, "You? Is there something my brother is hiding from me? ”

"I can hide it from you, but I can't hide it from Zhao Wuwu, you are as cunning as a fox, and you really deserve it." Lian Ming turned around and left, "That's it, after all, I will stick out my head and stab it, and it is also a knife to shrink my head, it is better to die happily." After all, the people in this world have to fight for their lives. ”

Mu Yao didn't understand, but Lian Ming had already left in stride.

In fact, Mu Yao also had doubts about the identity of this righteous brother, but what she lacked at that time was manpower, so as long as it was beneficial to herself, there was no need to insist too much. But now it seems that Zhao Wuwu seems to have some handle on Lian Ming, so that Lian Ming is so anxious and uneasy, and once doubted Zhao Wuwu's intentions.

"County Lord?" Huo Huo was puzzled, "What do you say is wrong with this eldest son?" ”

"He's competing with himself, and he's clearly mixed in, and he wants to get out of it. How can there be such a cheap thing in this world? What's more, in Zhao Wuwu's territory, if you want to have a fair trade, I'm afraid it's difficult. Mu Yao frowned slightly, and then looked at the ice ballast who was busy in the pavilion with great joy.

This time, she has to repair the ice bumps in the East Factory, and this account will not be counted on her head at that time anyway. It's good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree, and that's true.

There is Qi Yu Wangfu and Shangshu Mansion, how can Dongchang Nai her?

Hearing Xi Mo's report, saying that Lian Gongzi was coming, the ink pen in Zhao Wuwu's hand paused slightly, lifted his eyelids, and said, "Let him come in!" Serve tea! ”

Xi Mo bowed and retreated, and Lian Ming slowly walked in the door.

"Do you know that ordinary people are not allowed to step into this listening wind building?" Zhao Wuwu took the lead, but he didn't look at him squarely, and looked at the official documents from the desk.

Lian Ming stood at the door and was stunned, "Then I ......"

"It's all here, isn't it too late to quit now?" Zhao Wuwu said again.

Lian Ming frowned, "Lord Zhao's words are quite meaningful. ”

"Oh, really?" Zhao Wuwu raised his head and smiled, his eyebrows clear, "I don't think much about it, I just feel that I have something to say in front of me, so as not to get angry when I get it, and I have to tell the truth." ”

Lian Ming stepped forward and saluted, "See your Excellency." ”

"Isn't that good?" Zhao Wuwu smiled, "It's clear that he is a well-informed son, so he has to be one of those indiscriminate people to see, and he is not afraid that he should panic?" ”

Lian Ming's face was slightly pale, "Lord Zhao ......"

"Sit!" Zhao Wuwu closed the official document in his hand, and then picked up the official document on one side and continued to read it, "Gongzi Lian came to visit, I don't know what happened?" ”

Lian Ming said, "Lord Zhao has a lot of opportunities, it must be that I came at the wrong time." ”

"It's not a big deal, it's just a blind job." Zhao Wuwu is plausible, "Some things are done too much, and it has become a habit, and if you don't do it for a day, you feel panicked, and you always feel that something is missing." ”

She paused, and looked at Lian Ming with a smile, "Is there something wrong with Lian Gongzi?" ”

This time Lian Ming was a little at a loss, but fortunately, he was also an extremely forbearant person, even though his heart was pounding, he still had to show the initial unruliness on his face, "It's nothing, I just want to come over and say a few words to Lord Zhao." ”

Zhao Wuwu asked knowingly, "Oh, then you can say it!" Listen! ”

From beginning to end, she has always referred to herself as an official, which shows the seriousness between this humility and her words. This is the birth, which means that she will only give Lian Ming this chance.

Lian Ming is not a fool, he thought about it for a long time before he said, "I'm here to tell Lord Zhao that I figured it out." ”

"Figured out what?" Zhao Wuwu was focused on official business, and he didn't seem to have the heart to play sloppy with Lian Ming at all. What's more, it was Zhao Wuwu who gave Lian Ming time to think about it earlier, but now he doesn't care.

Lian Ming thought in his heart, isn't this Zhao Wuwu getting some news, so he doesn't care much about the news he gave? If a person has no use value, I am afraid it will be difficult to gain a foothold here in Zhao Wuwu.

Indeed, Zhao Wuwu is not the kind of person who has too much leisure and elegance.

Seeing that Lian Ming didn't speak, Zhao Wuwu paused, "What's wrong?" If Gongzi Lian is fine, please go back first! The official still has important things to do, and he really doesn't have time to gossip with Lian Gongzi. Or else! When the official finishes dealing with the matter at hand, he is looking for a good drink with Mr. Lian, and it is no problem to talk at night. ”

Lian Ming frowned, got up and saluted, "I came today to cooperate with Lord Zhao." ”

Zhao Wuwu's face was lacking in interest, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he seemed to be smiling, "Cooperation? Lian Gongzi now has no long things, how can he cooperate with this official? Do you know that this official never makes a loss-making transaction? As a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, a member of the imperial court, what do you want? There is no need to cooperate with a nameless person like Lian Gongzi! Are you—understand? ”

"I understand!" Lian Ming nodded, "So what Lord Zhao means is that if I can't meet your expectations, it's likely that I won't even have the possibility of becoming a pawn?" ”

Zhao Wuwu smiled, "What do you think?" How many people in this world want to cooperate with this official, but often the end is miserable. Because if you don't meet the expectations of the official, you're a waste. Wasting time with waste is not wasting your own life? There are too many official matters, and there is not much time to waste. ”

Lian Ming took a deep breath, "I naturally know Lord Zhao's expectations, so I came here today and was prepared." He sighed lightly, "Ever since you showed me that gold-inlaid jade, I knew that Lord Zhao was a great person. Outsiders all say that Lord Zhao is a sick man, but they don't know that this blunt knife kills people, and it is the most ruthless existence. ”

"I can't tell you about Spiegel and my own identity, but I can give you one thing. Presumably, Lord Zhao is so powerful, he should also know that he is looking for something in the palace of Qi Yu now. King Qi turned the world upside down, dispatched a secret guard but did not dare to alarm the court, it is conceivable that this thing should not be known to outsiders. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Wuwu put down the official document in his hand and stared at Lian Ming in front of him with a slightly gloomy face.

Looking at each other, Lian Ming smiled slightly coldly.

Zhao Wuwu clearly saw the ruthlessness of a man. That's right, a murderous aura. The murderous aura that he tried his best to endure revealed a hint of sadness, accompanied by a slight narrowing of his eyes.

"That thing, in my hand." Lian Ming whispered.

Zhao Wuwu heard it clearly, word by word.

What does that mean that thing is in the hands of Lian Ming? Does it mean that Lian Ming knows the layout of Qi Yu Palace? Know where King Qiyu's most precious thing is hidden? More importantly, wasn't Lian Ming imprisoned? But he can still move freely in the Qiyu Royal Mansion and steal such a thing?

Thinking of this, Zhao Wuwu looked Lian Ming up and down, "You mean that you can move freely in the Qiyou Palace?" ”

Lian Ming smiled coldly, "Lord Zhao's focus seems to be different from everyone else. I thought the first thing you were going to ask was what that thing was, but I didn't expect you to ask about this? ”

Zhao Wuwu also smiled coldly, "Since that thing is in your hands, why should I be in a hurry?" What King Qi Yu wants to get must not be an ordinary thing, so it must be of little use if you get it. I'm not so interested in that thing, but I'm interested in you. ”
