Chapter 489: Hiding Deep Enough

In fact, Wang Zizhan reacted so much before the war more because of Sima De's anger at sending people to the mansion of the eldest prince, after all, although Wang Caijuan had to marry the eldest prince Lin Xuan for the sake of the Wang family, but from the bottom of his heart, Wang Zizhan still hopes that his daughter can have a good home, so it is unacceptable for Sima De's almost insulting request, which is Wang Zizhan's bottom line as a father.

However, according to Sima De's explanation now, Wang Zizhan suddenly found that he seemed to be able to accept this statement? Although it was a bit strange to set the location in the mansion of the eldest prince, and even Wang Zizhan had some faint bad guesses, but at this time, Wang Zizhan no longer wanted to dwell on this matter.

A few days ago, the sharp shrinkage of the Xue family's industry gave the Wang family a great opportunity to expand, but because of the identity of the Xue family, so the entire imperial capital has no power to dare to attack those industries that belong to the Xue family but have been abandoned, such as the Tianyuan gambling house that has closed its doors.

For these industries that were abandoned by the Xue family, the Wang family naturally wanted to start, after all, half a year ago, Yang Ghost checked the imperial capital, and many of the industries lost by the Wang family finally fell into the hands of the Xue family without explanation.

Now that the Xue family is in such a situation, it is the best opportunity for the Wang family to expand their power, which is why Wang Zizhan did not step out of the threshold in the end, since it was for the interests of the family that he decided to marry his daughter to the eldest prince Lin Xuan, then now it is also for the interests of the family, why can't he agree to Sima De's request again? Wang Zizhan persuaded himself like this.

Of course, it is naturally impossible for Wang Zizhan to take the initiative to mention the Xue family's industry in exchange, whether it is Wang Zizhan or Taishi Sima De, they are very clear about this point, since the eldest prince has put forward a request, then the initiative of the price must be in the hands of the Wang family, otherwise the matter will not be discussed.

So Sima De, who felt the change in Wang Zizhan's attitude, smiled meaningfully for the first time: "Speaking of which, a few days ago, Xue Li, the head of the Xue family, found the old man, saying that the Xue family's current branches and leaves are a little too lush, and he plans to prune them well, so he abandoned a number of peripheral industries, hoping that the old man can help him find someone who can and is willing to take over the Xue family." ”

"This Xue family master also said that the current atmosphere in the imperial capital is not good, although these industries are only the peripheral industries of the Xue family, but they are also of great value, I don't know why no one in the imperial capital is willing to take over, so I can only find the old man here, I don't know if the Wang family master is interested in these peripheral industries of the Xue family?"

The atmosphere of going to his uncle is not good, your Xue family's things The Xue family doesn't speak, who in the imperial capital dares to make a mess? Who doesn't know that behind the Xue family is His Royal Highness the Great Prince! What other peripheral industry, the Tianyuan gambling house, which brings the Xue family at least 1,000 top-grade spirit crystal pure income a year, has actually become a peripheral industry, what the hell!

It is said that the Xue family has refused to see visitors for several days, and now the major forces in the entire imperial capital are inquiring about the news of the Xue family, trying to find out what is going on.

Wang Zizhan knew that something must have happened within the Xue family, and it was very likely that it involved the key to determining the rise and fall of the entire family, splitting the industry and blocking the news, so it seems that the next step should be to secretly send the younger generation away, right?

Although the Xue family is not a native family in the imperial capital, the Xue family has had a smooth ride in the past few years when they want to take root in the imperial capital, and Xue Li, the head of the Xue family, is a brave and unscrupulous person with a hot temper, so he should not consider the back road at this time!

Although Sima De's words are almost nonsense, one thing is certain, the Xue family's industry should be the real condition given by the eldest prince this time, as for the heavenly treasures, divine weapons, martial arts and combat skills mentioned before, they are just a cover to test themselves.

"The Wang family and the Xue family are the three major families in the imperial capital, naturally they are in the same spirit, now that the Xue family has encountered something, they already need to sell the family industry to tide over the difficulties, the Wang family will naturally not sit idly by, these peripheral industries of the Xue family, the Wang family is willing to take over, but until now the Wang family still doesn't know what happened to the Xue family, I don't know if the old lady knows some inside information?"

Wang Zizhan's words are very beautiful, since Sima De said that the key industries of the Xue family are peripheral industries, then the Wang family will naturally not bite back, and the vested interests of accepting the industry have nothing to do with Sima De, and the cost of the Wang family is of course the lower the better, and it is the basis for the two parties to reach a consensus by biting the literal article to death.

Although it had been expected, Wang Zizhan's words still made Sima De admire for a while, worthy of being in charge of the Wang family for decades, although in Sima De's opinion, some places are still insufficient, but in terms of conversation alone, Wang Zizhan is definitely a qualified head of the family.

"The internal affairs of the Xue family don't care about the head of the Wang family, right?" Sima De said casually, in fact, even he didn't know what happened to the Xue family, he only knew that the Xue family was willing to hand over this batch of properties to himself, and the chips that were sent over for nothing would not be Sima De without him.

The words are almost over, and the deal that should be reached is almost reached, and after saying a few words casually, Sima De sent Wang Zizhan out of the door, looking at Wang Zizhan who left satisfied, Sima De frowned slightly, and turned around to call the housekeeper Uncle Xu over.

"Sir, are you looking for me?"

Xu Bo stood respectfully in front of Sima De and asked, although his appearance was even much older than Sima De, only Sima De knew that Xu Bo was actually ten years younger than himself.

"You go and find out, what happened to the Xue family!"

Sima De frowned and ordered: "A large number of family industries have been sold, and many of them are still the pillar industries of the Xue family, Xue Li's actions this time made the old man a little incomprehensible, he is planning to run away with the Xue family? ”

"Sir, what is your hunch......?"

Uncle Xu had never seen Sima De show such a puzzled expression, not so much puzzled as incredulous, which made Uncle Xu, who had followed Sima De for decades, ask this question carefully.

"I don't really want to admit ...... though"

Sima De looked at Uncle Xu solemnly, and said with great bitterness: "That Xue Li, who is brave and unscrupulous, is as fierce as fire, it is very likely that it is just an illusion, and he may even have seen through our plan this time. ”

"What?

Xu Bo exclaimed, others don't know how sophisticated and complex the plan made by Sima De is, and they may not even know that Sima De has a plan in his hand, but Xu Bo knows very well that the production of this plan is completely accidental, and many of the links that make up the plan began to spread like a net in the hands of all forces in the imperial capital decades ago, Xu Bo believes that even Lin Hong, the Qintian Supervisor, may not be able to see through this plan.

"No, he saw through it, or he wouldn't have put it in my hands. ”

Sima De said word by word, if this judgment was just a trace of Sima De's speculation before, then for the current Sima De, the only explanation that can explain Xue Li and the Xue family's behavior is this judgment.

"But even if those properties are not handed over to you, they will fall into the hands of the Wang family sooner or later, how can he see through your plan?" Xu Bo still didn't understand, he couldn't figure out how a guy who was almost despised by the wise people of the entire imperial capital could see through his master's plan.

Seeing Uncle Xu's reaction, Sima De's face couldn't help but show a wry smile, Xue Li, this guy is really hiding too deeply, using a disguised character of courage and inconsistency like fire, coupled with the Xue family's domineering style of doing things, he has deceived all the forces in the imperial capital for decades, this kind of patience is really terrifying.

Many conclusions are often drawn from some trivial actions or results, Sima De does not have any evidence to prove that the Xue family and Xue Li are indeed pretending, but the result of deducing from the currently known information is only this one possibility.

Sima De didn't explain to Uncle Xu, the more this kind of thing is explained, the more troublesome it becomes, not to mention that Xue Li handed over the disposal of this batch of Xue family's properties to Sima De this time, which has already sent a signal, the Xue family is not interested in your Sima De's plan, and you Sima De don't come to disturb the Xue family, the two forces have nothing to do with each other, and the well water does not interfere with the river water.

Sima De understood that this was a kind of compromise, if it was a threat, Xue Li would not put all these properties in his own hands and dispose of them on his behalf, this person was able to deceive the people of the entire imperial capital, it was indeed not to be underestimated.

Seeing that Sima De didn't explain to himself, Xu Bo was also a little panicked, after following Sima De for so many years, Xu Bo knew very well that Sima De's lack of explanation meant that even Sima De was a little at a loss for what to do about this matter.

"Okay, don't think nonsense, Xue Li is not interested in our plan, so don't worry about the Xue family, the arrangement in ten days is the most important. ”

Sima De's words brought Xu Bo back to his senses, and he asked a little blankly: "Master, then the Xue family's side is really left to be left like this? If necessary, we still have some hands here that can be inserted." ”

"Insert people? The current Xue family, I'm afraid it's already like an iron bucket, right?"

Sima De muttered to himself, did not agree with Uncle Xu's suggestion, just waved his hand to let him retreat, and then said to himself with a wry smile: "If you don't take it in your eyes for decades, once you wake up, where is it too late, let's let it be!"
