"Well, if this plan is successful, Meng Tan will inevitably turn against Honghuai, and it will cause losses within Honghuai. In this case, Huan Hao will inevitably be wary of those who may rebel within him, and ignore the actions of my Nalan family. Xiongba frowned slightly, and couldn't help but analyze to himself: "If Meng Tan refuses to cooperate, then we will kill him and give his head to Huan Hao will also enhance the relationship with Huan Hao, which will also reduce his suspicion of our Nalan family." ”

And no matter whether it succeeds or fails, Meng Tan, Huan Hao's important arm, will be cut off because of this. Cangqiong said with a smile: "Meng Tan's martial arts are not as idle as they are, and they may not be inferior to Zhu Bin in the Honghuai Society." Now Huan Hao doubts him, it is undoubtedly an opportunity given by God to our Nalan family. If my father doesn't take this opportunity to get rid of him, when will he wait?"

"Well, my son has a point. Xiongba nodded, and then a happy smile appeared on his face: "This strategy is not a loss for our Nalan family no matter what, and Er's strategy is really very comparable." ”

Xiongba smiled, and at the same time his brow couldn't help frowning slightly.

"But why do you have to carry your brother behind their backs?"

"It's not that I can't trust my brother, it's just that this plan is a little vicious. Cangqiong smiled indifferently: "Although my brother can accept it, but my father thinks that with the character of Xuanyuan Lan and Xiao Chen, they can accept it? Now the time is not long, and his character still needs to be savored. is also his heroic temperament, and Meng Tan is his father's former friend. If he had known about this scheme, he might not have leaked it. ”

"Well, and that's all it takes. ”

Xiongba nodded, and only then did he fully understand the good intentions of the sky.

"Since my father doesn't have any doubts now, let's talk about the specific details now!" Cangqiong said: "It's best for my father not to tell anyone else except you and me and my brother about this matter, as for Xiao Chen, we still need his father's dying blood book." The other is the arrangement when he feasts Meng Tan, although his martial arts are different from ordinary people, but he is not expected to be his father's opponent. But in order to prevent him from escaping halfway, it is still necessary to arrange a knife and axe hand outside the gate just in case. ”

"Well, that's exactly what I said. ”

Xiongba nodded, and then arranged everything according to the words of the sky the next day. After everything was ready, Xiongba sent someone to send an invitation to Meng Tan and invited him to his mansion.

said that since Meng Tan let go of the Xiao brothers, Huan Hao has cut off all the power in his hands. Although he is still the honorary master of the Qinglong Hall in the Honghuai Society, he has actually become an idle person.

When he received the invitation from Xiongba, Meng Tan was sitting and drinking with his nephew Wei Yu at home. The servant from the house reported to Meng Tan that someone from the Nalan family had sent an invitation, and Meng Tan couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the news.

"Although we have been in Xiongzhou for many years, I have no contact with the Nalan family. What's more, what does he ask me to do?"

Meng Tan frowned suspiciously, and at the same time, he couldn't help but look at his nephew Wei Yin, who was sitting firmly at the table. Wei Yin also felt confused, but he thought about it but seemed to understand something.

"Uncle, don't be suspicious, since you have nothing to do with it, then my nephew expects that there will be something wrong with Nalan Xiongba's invitation this time. ”

"Oh, tell me about it!"

Meng Tan nodded, and then asked.

"Although the Naranved family is obviously helping the meeting, they have always been ambitious. Recently, my nephew heard rumors in the city that the orphan of the Xiao family, whom the lord had painstakingly captured, was now hiding in the Nalan family's mansion. Moreover, since the uncle misplaced the two sons of the Xiao family, he was suspected by the lord, so I think there must be only one reason for the Nalan family to invite each other this time. ”

"Well, what's the reason?"

"Woo my uncle, that's all. ”

"Hehe~ Joke!" Meng Tan sneered: "What is the Nalan family? Since I am a courtier of the Honghuai Society, the Lord suspects me, and I will not turn my back on the meeting and go to them." If this is the case, then I will not go back to this invitation directly. ”

As he said this, he tore up the invitation. Wei Yan hurriedly stopped him, and Meng Tan was puzzled and immediately asked why.

"This is where the opportunity for reconciliation between my uncle and the Lord lies, so why did my uncle miss it?"

Wei Yan said a word, and Meng Tan didn't understand it even more.

"What do you mean by that?"

He asked, his eyes staring at his nephew with doubt.

"He wants to woo me, and I just wait and see what happens. As long as we have the evidence that they are trying to woo us, we can report it to the Lord, and we have a chance for ourselves. ”

"What's the chance?"

The more Meng Tan listened, the more he didn't understand.

"Uncle is really confused. As the saying goes, good birds choose trees to perch, and loyal ministers choose their masters. Wei Yu explained: "Since the Nalan family wants to win over their uncle, they will naturally put forward strong conditions for us. Although they have not yet gained power and the dominance of Motan City is still in the hands of the Honghuai Society, Shili is gradually increasing. We can't afford to offend such a family, and the Lord doesn't trust my uncle now, if we are loyal, we will naturally be loyal to the meeting, but if we can't protect ourselves, why don't we leave a way for ourselves?"

"What do you mean......"

"Whether it is loyalty or rebellion, it depends on my uncle. Now that he has two offenses and a chance to retreat for himself, why should my uncle give up?"

"This ......" Meng Tan was silent, thought about it and couldn't help but exhale lightly: "Okay, this time it is indeed what you say is reasonable." Since there is no harm to us, and it is okay to do it now anyway, it is better to go to his Nalan house and be deceived into having a meal of wine and food. ”

"Hehehehe~"

Wei invited daxiao, and Meng Tan couldn't help but laugh.

"Even so, do you want to come with me?"

"It doesn't have to be. Wei Yan shook his head: "The Nalan family has always been cautious, if someone accompanies them, I am afraid that they will have reservations about their uncle in their words." Now my uncle went alone, and he was less wary. The second can release the uncle's sincerity, why should the uncle who is cold in this move have to let the little nephew follow?"

"Well, that's true. ”

Meng Tan said this, and couldn't help but stand up. Wei Yin smiled, then reached out and took a sword from the saber stand and handed it to Meng Tan.

"Although there is nothing, my uncle still has to be just in case. Wei Yu comforted: "Although there is no risk in this trip, the little nephew will also contact his uncle's friends in the meeting to secretly ambush and spy on the place at the entrance of the Nalan family's mansion. If there is a change, we will definitely report that our uncle is safe if we act early. ”

"Hehe~ That's fine. ”

Meng Tan took the sword with a smile, and then strode out to the appointment.
