Chapter 217: Uncle and Nephew Turn Against Each Other
The human heart is unpredictable.
To be on the safe side, they had to get Tong Guowei to stand with them.
One is prosperous, and one is lost.
Even if it is for self-preservation, Tong Guowei will say good things for them where Emperor Kangxi is.
A day later.
The fourth master and others arrived in Zhili.
Long Keduo had been waiting here for a long time, and when he saw the fourth master and the others, Long Keduo was excited to meet him, but was stopped by two people who suddenly appeared.
"What do you want to do?"
"Lord Long, the two of us have no other intentions, Tong Zhongtang sent us to deliver a letter to you, and instructed you to do things according to the instructions on the letter after you see the letter!"
As he spoke, one of them took out the letter from his bosom and solemnly handed it to him.
At the moment of seeing the letter, Long Keduo hesitated, and took the letter with a frown.
"What did Uncle Sixth say besides telling you these words?"
Long Keduo trembled and unfolded the letter, glanced at the two of them, and saw that the two of them did not say a word, and the worry in his heart was a little more.
Originally, he was going to rush to Tianyuan Mansion, but after he arrived in Zhili, Tong Guowei suddenly sent someone to come and ordered him to wait in Zhili and not act rashly.
After waiting for a few days, now he finally waited for the fourth master, but Tong Guowei sent someone to interrupt his thoughts again.
As soon as he finished reading the contents of the letter, Long Keduo paused, and his face turned pale.
"Lord Long, Tong Zhongtang specially instructed that you have to do your part for the glory of the family no matter what, and the minions will assist you and complete the tasks assigned by Tong Zhongtang together."
Someone reminded again.
One word at a time, he was not allowed to resist.
Long Keduo silently put away the letter and sneered, "The sixth uncle has arranged it really well, let me do it here, kill someone, do I want my future in the future?" ”
"He's really my sixth uncle!"
Cold words, with his dissatisfaction.
has been hidden in the snow for so many years, and he has nothing else to think about.
Tong Guowei chose the eighth master, and let him be intimate with the fourth master, but at this time, the eighth master was in the upper hand, and the fourth master was at a disadvantage, once the eighth master ascended the throne, he would inevitably be regarded as the fourth master's doorman and be liquidated by the eighth master.
On the contrary, Tong Guowei will reap the benefits of the fisherman and will not be affected in any way.
This is the opportunity given to him by Uncle Qin.
Long Keduo glanced at the two of them indifferently, "Okay, I will do what the sixth uncle explained in the letter, the two of you go back to the inn to rest first, and when I go to the fourth master first, after understanding the situation, find an opportunity to kill the two of them, and then talk about it." ”
"Yes!"
The two of them spoke in unison and walked towards the inn in unison.
Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Long Keduo sneered, "Sixth uncle, sixth uncle, if you treat your nephew like this, aren't you afraid of five thunders?" ”
"Why should you take advantage of all the benefits and let your nephew take risks on his own?"
As he spoke, Long Keduo urinated solemnly, and walked quickly towards the fourth master's accommodation.
Meanwhile.
As soon as the four masters, Bai Luomei and others who had been bumpy all the way arrived at the inn to rest, someone brought tea and pastries.
Bai Luomei was so tired that her bones fell apart, and she leaned back in her chair, unable to recover for a long time.
"Master, why are we staying here?"
"Take advantage of the dawn and hurry up and go back to Beijing, isn't it?"
"Let's come all the way, the goal is so big, aren't you afraid that the eighth master and their dogs will jump off the wall in a hurry, and take advantage of the fact that there is no one around us, and send a group of killers to solve us all secretly?"
Bai Luomei's worries were not unreasonable, but the fourth master stopped all the way, and seemed to be eager for those people to come and do it.
Faced with the behavior of the fourth master, Bai Luomei was puzzled.
At present, they know very little about the situation in the capital, what the eighth master and others have done in the capital, what plans are being brewed, they have not yet fully known, once something happens, it will take a day to arrive in the capital from here.
When I returned to the capital, I was afraid that the daylily would be cold.
The fourth master smiled, "I'm not afraid that they will come, but I'm afraid that they won't come." ”
"What do you mean?"
Bai Luomei was curious about the baby, and asked in surprise.
"Bai Gege, what else can this mean, starling brothers, they must have known about the arrest of Cai Yongzhen and Cao Xirong, but this road is peaceful, we didn't encounter any ups and downs, and we arrived in Zhili, don't you think it's strange?"
"Starling, why are they so calm? Isn't he afraid that after Cai Yongzhen and Cao Xirong return to Beijing, they will confess to them, and Huang Ama will be angry and liquidate them? ”
The Thirteenth Master took a sip of tea comfortably, ate pastries, and was not in a hurry.
The attitude of the two brothers made Bai Luomei aware of it.
Together, they are casting a long line to catch a big fish.
And Cai Yongzhen and Cao Xirong are bait.
That's right.
The wind is coming, and Roncodo is coming.
"Look, I'll just say they can't hold their breath, no, people are coming."
The Thirteenth Master raised his eyebrows slightly, and snorted in front of Bai Luomei, "Call someone in, our Lord Long Keduolong is Tong Zhongtang's own nephew, and he suddenly appeared in Zhili, presumably it was Tong Zhongtang's arrangement." ”
As soon as Bai Luomei heard Long Keduo's name, her heart suddenly tightened.
The legendary and vicious Long Keduo still appeared in the end.
This man is not a good bird, he is just a wallgrass!
However, now he has not been promoted, he is still hovering in the lower echelons, and now he needs a chance, and the fourth master is the one who can provide him with a chance.
Not much.
Long Keduo entered, and as soon as he entered the door, Long Keduo couldn't wait to kneel down towards the two.
"Slave Long Keduo, please give peace to the fourth master and the thirteenth master, the two masters are auspicious!"
"Yo, uncle, what are you doing, why do you give us such a big gift? Hurry up, hurry up, aren't you breaking our life," the thirteenth master smiled and personally helped him up.
Long Keduo hurriedly said, "The status of the slave is lowly, and it is appropriate to salute the two masters, the slave has been waiting for the two masters here for a long time, and today I finally waited for the two masters." ”
One sentence suddenly made the two of them more vigilant.
Waiting a lot?
That's not easy!
They went to Tianyuan Mansion, it took two months before and after, and it took two days to determine the schedule of returning to Beijing, but he waited here for a long time.
"What, you've been waiting here for a long time? Tong Zhongtang asked you to wait here? ”
The fourth master's sword eyebrows were upside down, not angry and self-assured, and his body was bathed in a solemn aura.
Seeing this, Long Keduo hurriedly bowed and responded, "Back to the fourth master, the slave has been waiting in Zhili since the fourth master left the capital, and the original slave was thinking of going to Tianyuan Mansion with the fourth master to saddle the horse and horse for the fourth master." ”
"But the slave thought about it carefully, the fourth master went to Tianyuan Mansion to do big things, and the slave went to get in the way, the slave waited here, and when the fourth master came back, the slave escorted the fourth master back to Beijing, so as to fulfill a filial piety."
"What do you think, just now, the slave saw the fourth master enter the city and was about to escort him, but at this time, the sixth uncle of the slave sent someone to send a letter, and the slave was cold on his back, and his hairs stood up!"
