Before the conversation between the guests and the host began, the atmosphere was already very warm.

The room was full of smoke and dust, and the guests and hosts choked each other, coughing for a long time until the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and the two eased up.

Gu En, who was coughing and flushed, pointed to Li Qinzai's clothes and stopped talking.

Li Qinzai didn't see it, and he didn't mean to change his clothes at all.

Everyone is not too familiar, and he doesn't know Gu En's intention to come to the door, if the other party is here to ask the teacher, I will change into a new clothes to accept his questioning? Cheap is not cheap.

"Haha, Brother Gu, forgive me, I am in a very good mood today, and I rolled in the mud on a whim to express my chest, so it is rude." Li Qinzai looked up to the sky and said with a haha.

Gu En's face was ugly, and he tried to pull the corners of his mouth, saying Li Jungong, you are really funny, do you Li family roll in the mud to vent when they are in a good mood?

It doesn't matter, trifles, don't care.

The purpose of Gu En's visit today was to ask Li Qinzai about his attitude towards the Shangguan family, which was the most important thing.

The Assassins outside the city returned with a feather and reported to Gu Enyu that the Li family's troops had intercepted them halfway and forced the Assassins to retreat.

Li Qinzai suddenly came down and protected Shangguan's father and son, of course, it was not good news for the eight major clans in Jiangnan, and the principals of the major clans in Chang'an immediately gathered together to discuss and judge for a long time, but there was still no result.

The only thing that can be heard is that Shangguan Tingzhi's son Shangguan Kun'er is Li Qinzai's disciple, and Li Qinzai's action to protect Shangguan's father and son is mostly related to Shangguan Kun'er.

But what is incredible to the heads of the Wang clan is that knowing that this matter is so dangerous, even the Son of Heaven chose to punish the Shangguan family to show his compromise with the Jiangnan Wang family.

The Son of Heaven can't afford to provoke an existence, how bold does Li Qinzai have to dare to wade into this troubled water?

The relationship between teachers and students is as close as father and son, but in the face of the powerful power of the Jiangnan Wang clan, this teacher-student relationship is too fragile, in the face of life and death threats, close relatives can also be thrown away, for the sake of a disciple, Li Qinzai dares to go against the eight major Wang clans in Jiangnan?

Therefore, Gu En came to the door in person today in order to test Li Qinzai's attitude.

If Li Qinzai could realize the strength of the major noble clans in Jiangnan and choose to go back and no longer protect Shangguan's father and son, then the matter would be over, after all, there had been no actual conflict between the two sides.

If Li Qinzai is determined to protect Shangguan's father and son, then he will have a feud.

In today's world, the Son of Heaven and the gate valve elite rule the world together.

What about the British Duke and the Liaodong County Prince? Behind Gu En is the entire Jiangnan Huainan family, without them, the Tang Dynasty will lose control of Jiangnan Huainan.

That's right, the eight major Wang clans in Jiangnan are so awesome, which is why Li Zhi had to choose to punish Shangguan's father and son in order to appease the Jiangnan Wang clan, because he really can't afford to provoke him.

After greeting for a long time, Gu En gradually got to the point.

"Yesterday, Shangguan Tingzhi sparsely participated in the impeachment of the Jiangnan Wang clan, framed several crimes, and tried to use this as a step to the top, fortunately, the Son of Heaven saw through the ambition of Shangguan and the thief, and exiled Shangguan's father and son for thousands of miles, has Li Jungong ever heard of this?" Gu En asked with a smile.

Li Qinzai also smiled: "I heard that the eight major families in Jiangnan are so powerful!" ”

Gu En's expression froze, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether Li Qinzai's words were mocking or genuinely complimenting.

Just listen to it as a good word.

After pondering for a moment, Gu En continued: "Today, Shangguan's father and son left Beijing and were exiled, and I heard that the Li family's subordinates were escorted all the way, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

Li Qinzai said calmly: "Yes, I sent it, and the Li family will send Shangguan and his son all the way to Qiongzhou, and they will also be stationed in Qiongzhou until the father and son get the amnesty of the Son of Heaven and return to Beijing." ”

Gu En's eyes suddenly darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "As far as I know, Li Jungong has a general relationship with the Shangguan family, and somehow he has to protect this father and son?" ”

The smile on Li Qinzai's face gradually disappeared, and his brows furrowed: "Brother Gu, is this asking for guilt?" ”

Gu En hurriedly said: "I don't dare, it's just that the Shangguan thieves maliciously framed my Jiangnan Wang clan and ruined the reputation of my eight major families. ”

Li Qinzai said lightly: "What about the eight wang clans in and out of your words, in fact, you just want to use the power of the wang clan to suppress me, right?" ”

Gu En smiled: "Li Jungong is too worried, he has no intention of doing so, and he came to the door today not for himself, but for the joint promotion of my eight major families in the south of the Yangtze River, in order to ask Li Jungong for a promise." ”

"What promise?"

Gu En was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Please Li Jungong agree, no longer get involved in the grievances between the Jiangnan Wang clan and Shangguan's father and son, and withdraw the part that escorted Shangguan's father and son." ”

"If the Duke of Li County should be inherited, my Eight Noble Clans are willing to give generous gifts to thank them, and also remember the favor of the Duke of Li County, in the future in the court or in the place, my Eight Noble Clans are willing to watch and help each other with the Duke of Li County."

Li Qinzai smiled: "It is worthy of the Jiangnan family, it is really domineering, it scares me so much that I can't wait to bow my head and worship ......"

Then Li Qinzai said with a smile: "I am a teacher and a student with the dogs of the Shangguan family, and the relationship is somewhat related, but I have no contact with your eight major families, why should I listen to your words, obediently retreat to the side, and let you kill Shangguan's father and son?" ”

Gu En held back his breath and said, "This is the common request of the eight great clans in Jiangnan!" ”

Li Qinzai nodded: "I heard it, I said it was a request, but in fact, I still used power to suppress me, the Jiangnan Wang clan is powerful in the local area, even the Son of Heaven must give you a few thin noodles, and the Son of Heaven will give face, and I, the county prince, naturally have to give face, otherwise I don't know how to lift." ”

Gu En heard the sarcasm in Li Qinzai's words, and at this moment he gradually realized that Li Qinzai was afraid that he would not compromise today, so his face became more and more gloomy.

Li Qinzai looked at him and suddenly smiled: "Before Brother Gu came to the door, I don't know if you asked about my personality?" ”

Gu En was stunned for a moment, and groaned.

Li Qinzai then smiled and said: "I'm a person, I'm actually very talkative, if you tell me well, be polite, be sincere, don't use power to force me at every turn, maybe I will agree to you as soon as I close my eyes and stomp my feet......"

Then Li Qinzai sighed and said, "And you open your mouth to be how the Eight Great Clans are, how I must be, and my heart is getting hotter and hotter when I hear it......"

Immediately, Li Qinzai's face sank, and he suddenly said angrily: "Am I a house slave raised by your family?" What do you say, I must do it? The power of the Wang clan is so great, why did you rebel and enter Chang'an! ”

Gu En was startled, got up and was about to speak, but was stopped by Li Qinzai waving his hand.

"The face of the eight major clans in Jiangnan, I won't give it today! I will guarantee the lives of Shangguan's father and son, whoever dares to stretch out his hand to them on the road, I will chop off his claws! ”

Gu En's face was pale, his eyelids jumped, his nostrils were wide open and he was panting, and after a long time, Gu En suddenly looked up to the sky and smiled.

"Okay, Li Jungong is so bold and courageous, and he has been taught below."

"The gentleman broke off his friendship and didn't speak ill of him, since he couldn't get along, he said goodbye."

After speaking, Gu En got up, still bowed to Li Qinzai without losing his manners, then turned around and brushed his sleeves and left.
