Chapter 56: Wisdom Provokes Mengtan
However, it was said that both sides had their own preparations, and Meng Tan went to the Naranved mansion to answer the appointment. When he arrived at his home, Xiongba personally brought his young son Nalan Weide out to greet him. Several people saluted, and then the hero welcomed Meng Tan into the living room.
Sitting down at a young time, Meng Tan couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"Since I have been in Motan City in Xiongzhou for many years, I have been taken care of by the old lord many times at the meeting. Although Meng Tan was the hall master of the Blue Dragon Hall, he had little contact with the old lord and his family. Today, the old lord is bothered, and Meng Tan is honored and frightened. ”
Dominating daxiao.
"In the same Motan City, I have heard of the prestige of the hall master. I only hate that everything at home is busy, so I haven't talked to the hall master about the wine. There is nothing to do today, so I think of the hall master and invite. ”
"I see. ”
Meng Tan nodded with a smile, and Xiongba immediately ordered the attendants in the palace to serve a full meal to Meng Tan. Meng Tan was also not polite, during which the two father and son of Fannalan received all the respects. After three rounds of drinking, Xiongba's face changed, and then he suddenly put his cup and cried. Meng Tan didn't know and immediately asked why. Xiongba sighed softly, and then told each other.
"I think my Nalan family has millions of dollars, but my friends are careless. In my early years, I had the best friendship with Mr. Xiao Yu, the right-hand envoy of the Honghuai Society, and now my old friend's whole family has died unjustly, and I can't help but feel sad when I think about it, so I cry. ”
When Meng Tan heard Xiongba mention Xiao Yu, he couldn't help but feel sour in his heart. Although the meeting had already been rumored by Huan Hao and accused the Xiao family of rebellion, Meng Tan never believed it. Faced with the true feelings of the male tyrant at this time, Meng Tan couldn't help but feel sad when he remembered Xiao Yu's kindness to him in the past.
"Alas~ I don't hide it from the lord and say, I, Meng Tan, can have today thanks to Mr. Xiao in the past. Meng Tan sighed lightly: "I think that in the past, the two of us had a great friendship, and Mr. Xiao Yu treated me like a brother." Although the two of us want to be easy, we only hate him for betraying the lord first, so there is this reward. My heart hurts, but I can't do anything about it. ”
Meng Tan's words were immediately spoken, and the tyrant immediately broke out.
"It is clear that Huan Hao is tyrannical first, how can the public say that it is Mr. Xiao's fault. Isn't this a joke?"
Xiongba asked, Meng Tan was startled at first, and then couldn't help but shoot the case angrily.
"Why did the Lord falsely accuse our Lord?"
"I framed him?" Xiongba couldn't help but sneer when he heard Meng Tan's words: "I think the public is still ignorant of the truth." ”
As he said this, he immediately reached out and took out Xiao Yu's dying handwriting from Xiao Chen from his arms and handed it to Meng Tan. Meng Tan was puzzled by the result, and couldn't help but be shocked when he saw it for a while.
"Where did you get this book?"
"A few days ago, Xiao Chen, an orphan of the Xiao family, was chased and killed, and he came to vote for me when his life was in danger. I accepted it because of my father's friendship, and I didn't want to ask a good doctor for healing but still had no way to return to heaven, so my son entrusted me with this great matter when he was in danger. I know that my father-in-law and I are both old friends of Mr. Shang, so I tell you the truth. Today's banquet is exactly what you mean, and I hope that the hall master will pity the Shang family and be loyal, and conspire to avenge the husband. ”
Xiongba is outspoken, and some of these lies are made up naturally from the wisdom of the sky.
"What, what?!?" Meng Tan was first shocked when he heard this: "Xiao Chen, is Xiao Chen also dead?"
"Counting Xiao Chen, the Xiao family has 109 members, and now there is no life left. ”
Xiongba said calmly, and the sky was still sitting steadily, always paying attention to Meng Tan's performance.
Meng Tan was speechless, and couldn't help but frown deeply and ponder silently. Seeing that he was just silent and completely silent about the question he raised, Xiongba couldn't help but feel a little impatient after waiting for a long time. He exhaled lightly, and then repeated his question to Meng Tan again. Unexpectedly, Meng Tan would be furious, and he immediately slapped Xiao Yu's dying blood book on the table with a "snap". This move came suddenly, and it couldn't help but startle Nalan and his son.
"Mr. Xiao Yu's kindness, Meng Tan will never dare to forget in this life. Meng Tan's eyes were tearful, but full of anger stared at the father and son at the same table: "But if you let me rebel against the Lord with you, it is delusional." ”
Meng Tan said nothing, and Xiongba couldn't help but be furious. He picked up the wine glass, and for a moment he wanted to follow the original Jihua smashing the glass on the ground, and everyone in the mansion outside the door rushed up to kill Meng Tan. Seeing this, the sky hurriedly reached out and grabbed his wrist. Xiongba frowned, and then couldn't help but look at his son beside him. The firmament didn't speak, just looked at him with a straight gaze and shook his head slightly. Realizing something, he immediately calmed down the anger in his heart and sat back in his seat.
Meng Tan was silent, but the sky stepped forward to salute Meng Tan.
"The children of the Nalan family in Guizhou have heard the name of the hall master's loyalty for a long time, and now they don't want to tell each other in a few words. ”
Meng Tan still refused to speak, but his eyes were focused on the firmament. Seeing that there was an opportunity, the sky immediately spoke again to persuade him.
"The hall master thinks that the old lord of the past wants to repay the lord of today, but the lord of today is mediocre and killing, does not cultivate virtue and politics, and should know how to be public in his character. Mr. Xiao Yu was originally the master of the old department, and he has been loyal for many years, how can he go against each other if there is no reason? As for the things in the book, it is difficult to know whether they are true or false. However, the general and Mr. Xiao have been friends for many years, and there is no need for outsiders to say much about how he knows how to do it. If the general is foolish and insists on reporting to the Lord, do you really think about the Lord's inheritance?"
"Hmph, I don't understand what you're talking about. Meng Tan took his eyes off the firmament ruthlessly: "I, Meng Tan, am a rough man, not like Gongzi who understands so many big truths. I only know that I am a member of the Honghuai Society, and the Lord treated me poorly in the past, and I cannot be ungrateful. ”
"Clear and strong words. Xiongba shouted: "In the past, if there was no Mr. Xiao to recommend and protect you, you still don't know where to turn your muscles!"
Meng Tan was silent again, and the hesitation between his eyebrows was even more severe at this time.
"Since the hall master doesn't understand the truth, then you won't and don't understand things related to your own interests, right?"
The sky asked, Meng Tan frowned, and then turned his gaze to him.
"Huan Hao is brutal, and now there are more treacherous and rebellious people around him. Although the public has great courage, but now the Lord is suspicious, I think you will not be able to achieve a great cause, and sooner or later you will have to follow in the footsteps of Mr. Xiao?"
As soon as the firmament spoke, Meng Tan's color immediately changed. He knows Huan Hao's character, and he undoubtedly knows best what kind of person Fan Ke is. I am now in a crisis, and sooner or later I will be counted by Fanke, which is also a fact. Meng Tan couldn't help but feel apprehensive when he thought of this, and then the corners of his mouth couldn't help but tremble.
The sky saw that his words had worked, and it was inconvenient to say more about what happened afterward. He let out a long sigh of relief, and then the smile on his face became even bigger and he couldn't help but speak again.
"In the meantime, I weigh the pros and cons, and I hope that the public will consider it. Today, my father and son have said all their words for you, and I can think about it as much as I can when I go back, and my father and son are waiting at home for your decision. ”
After Cangqiong finished speaking, he called the family in the house to send Meng Tan away. Meng Tan lowered his head and remained speechless, he muttered that he didn't even remember how he got out of the Nalan family's mansion.
