Chapter 735: Hope Fulfilled
He Yunxuan had already had the idea of asking the Emperor for help, and now that the Qiankun Empire is powerful, as long as the Emperor wants to protect the He family, no one can do anything. It's a big deal that the overseas slave ~ subordinate business will not be done in the future.
However, Nanjiang Hou had never mentioned it before, and he didn't dare to ask. Today, the father and son opened their minds, and he said the idea.
But Nanjiang Hou's answer was unexpected, it was even more unlucky to find the Emperor He family, how could this be.
Nanjiang Hou glanced at his son with a puzzled face and asked, "If we are usually cheated, of course it is no problem to ask the emperor for help." But this time is different, don't forget who you're contacting, Xiongba, he is no longer an orc alliance that was friendly with the empire in the past, and is now a mortal enemy of the empire...... How do you explain your previous behavior to the Emperor?"
Yun Xuan was stunned, he really didn't expect this. Yes, how can you explain to the emperor, as a person of the empire, but entangled with a mortal enemy, if you turn against the water in the future!
After being silent for a long time, He Yunxuan said: "But I was also deceived by Xiong Ba, the emperor should not be ......"
Nanjiang Hou waved his hand to interrupt him and said, "Of course the Emperor knows that we have been deceived, the key is your previous behavior! Now you are contacting the enemy in order to make money, what about the future...... What's more critical is the high-level leaders in the DPRK and China, none of these people are good at stubble. Although we belong to the centrists, we have been wandering, and the Nanjiang Collar is relatively wealthy, and I don't know how many people will take the opportunity to fall into the well, not only will they not help us, but they will also try their best to beat our family to death!"
He Yunxuan was a little stupid when he heard it, he sometimes went to the capital, and those high-level people seemed very peaceful. Grinning, how can this be.
"Do you know how many nobles now occupy titles and have no territory, and do you know how many nobles have no official positions? Once this matter is poked out, those people will definitely be able to divide up our Nanjiang Territory, once they unite, I am afraid that the emperor will not be able to suppress it...... Hey, this is also to blame my character, if I hadn't always been wise to protect myself, I would be a wall grass that is windy and falling. It won't be like this......"
Nanjiang Hou sighed again and shook his head a little decadently: "Therefore, this matter must not be found by the Great Emperor." ”
"You can't find the Emperor. Is it okay to find Jiang Xingchen, what if he spreads this matter?" He Yunxuan really didn't expect this layer before, but now listening to Nanjiang Houyi's explanation, he suddenly felt that all the plants and trees were soldiers.
"Jiang Xingchen won't. He's a bit detached. Nan Jiangling's bad luck didn't do him any good, he shouldn't have any extraneous branches!" Nan Jianghou said.
"But there is still a Tang Tian by his side, if it reaches the imperial capital, we won't even have a chance to fight hard!" He Yunxuan did not relax at all, but became even more anxious.
So I only said in the letter that I borrowed the horse, but did not say the specific reason, just to wait for them to come to the interview...... Xingchen is short of people, we can cooperate with Jiang Xingchen. If Nan Jiang changes his master, will he still cooperate with him so happily?" Nan Jiang Hou said confidently.
"Oh!" He Yunxuan listened. Only then did I fully understand that my heart was slowly relaxed.
Through this conversation, He Yunxuan was clear about his gap, if it weren't for his father's explanation, he wouldn't have seen that there were so many things in it.
After being silent for a while, He Yunxuan reiterated his old words: "But father, what does Jiang Xingchen mean, he only said that he wanted to choose a slave ~ Li, and he didn't mention the black electricity at all, did he refuse to lend it to us?"
"This ......" Nan Jianghou also hesitated, he didn't know that Jiang Xingchen only received his letter after sending the letter.
It is said that he accepted the congratulatory gift I sent, even if he released his previous suspicions, but Jiang Xingchen's letter only said about the selection of slaves~, which really made him a little confused.
"There will be no problem, Jiang Xingchen may be more vague, he personally came to us to choose a slave~ Li, it should be to show his consent!" When Nan Jianghou said this, he didn't know the bottom of his heart.
"Father, what if Jiang Xingchen didn't mean that?" He Yunxuan swallowed his saliva and asked nervously.
Nan Jianghou gritted his teeth: "Whether Jiang Xingchen agrees or not, we must also be prepared, you wait for the people from the surrounding territories to come, and then take them to the island of the competition!
"That's the only way it can be!" He Yunxuan took a deep breath and nodded.
"You remember, don't tell the people in the surrounding territories that you were deceived by Xiongba, just take them to bet on horses!" Nan Jianghou said uneasily.
He Yunxuan left, and Nan Jianghou once again picked up pen and paper to write a letter to Jiang Xingchen. Now Jiang Xingchen is his only savior, if people really don't care, the He family and Nan Jiangling will really be finished.
When the letter was sent, Nan Jianghou began to circle around the room again, anxiously waiting......
At the city gate of Lanyu City, He Yunxuan stood with three young people. These three young people are fashionably dressed and are all new products launched by Dafulai.
"He Yunxuan, are you really sure you can win?" asked one of the round-faced youths.
"Wang Teng, is it necessary for me to lie to you, if it weren't for my own lack of funds, do you think I would give you such a good opportunity to make money?" He Yunxuan forced himself to calm down and said loudly.
"Yun Xuan, don't be angry! It's just that this time the amount is too big, and it makes sense for Wang Teng to be worried!" The person who spoke was the oldest of the three.
"I'm not moving, you should know what I'm Nanjiang Ling...... In this way, if you don't want to, forget it, I'll return the funds to you!" He Yunxuan laughed coldly.
"He Shao, I have something to say, and I didn't say I don't trust you......" Wang Teng hurriedly smiled.
He Yunxuan's face was a little better, and he said, "Then let's go, the horse race location is a small island overseas, and it will take a lot of time to arrive!"
"Overseas, is it safe?" asked the young man, who had not spoken.
"Don't worry, I'm okay, it's less than ten miles from the coast, within the range of Dali!" He Yunxuan replied.
"What about our horses?" the oldest man looked left and right.
"Already on the way, with a special escort...... Okay, let's go!" He Yunxuan was afraid that they would ask again, so he turned around and got into the carriage while speaking, and the group went straight to the Great Departure Kingdom......
Two days passed quickly, and in the Marquis's Mansion in Lanyu City, Marquis Nanjiang was still pacing back and forth. For such a long time, not only did he not move, but he didn't even sleep, and he waited for Jiang Xingchen's reply. The circles under my eyes are dark at the moment.
"Hey!" With a long sigh, Nan Jianghou stopped and sat weakly in his chair. With the speed of the speed eagle's message, it took less than a day to receive it from Nanjiang to Xingchen Ling, and now two days and two nights have passed, and it is said that there should have been a reply a long time ago, but now......
"It's over, Jiang Xingchen doesn't seem to be ready to stretch out his hand......" Nan Jianghou lowered his head weakly.
At this time, the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door quickly stopped at the door: "Master Hou, Lord Xingchen has arrived outside the door!"
"What?" Nanjiang stood up suddenly. Then his face was ecstatic, and his hands were shaking with excitement.
In the last letter, Jiang Xingchen did not say when it would arrive, only that he would come to select slaves ~ subordinates in the near future. He thought that Jiang Xingchen hadn't set off yet. Later, when I received my letter, there was no news, obviously because I didn't want to borrow a horse. But who knew that it would have arrived by now, indicating that it had already left, and the letter sent by himself should not have been received.
This also shows that Jiang Xingchen didn't want to help, but he just didn't receive the letter.
Hope was rekindled, of course Nanjiang Hou was excited, and he took two steps to the door, opened the door and ran out, and the people at the door were stunned, they had never seen Hou Ye like this.
At the gate of the Hou Mansion, the voice of Nanjiang Hou had already come out before he arrived: "Brother, I finally looked forward to you!"
Jiang Xingchen looked at Nanjiang Hou who ran over in a hurry, and was also stunned, this Nima is still the Hou Ye, how can it be the same as smoking a big cigarette. The whole person lost a lot of weight, not to mention, his face was blue, two dark circles under his eyes, and the bags under his eyes were about to fall to his mouth. Her hair was a mess and her clothes were a little messy.
"Old boy, have you paid too much public grain in the past two days!" The old man's mouth was even darker, and Nanjiang Hou almost spurted blood when he said a word.
"What, isn't this in a hurry......" Before Nan Jianghou's words fell, his eyes suddenly straightened, and he saw the black electricity behind Jiang Xingchen.
"Brother, you...... Why, bring it too!" Nanjiang Hou was dumbfounded, and his words were all stumbled.
"Didn't you say you wanted to borrow a horse?" Jiang Xingchen and the old man asked suspiciously at the same time.
"Yes, I mean borrowing a horse, but...... What ......" Nan Jianghou felt that his mind was a little messy, he thought that his letter would be delivered after Jiang Xingchen set off, but ......
"Damn, I don't want to!" Nan Jianghou laughed, originally just a hope was rekindled, but now a hope came to fruition, he was almost crazy with joy, and he was still wondering what the letter was for.
"I say, are you really paying too much money!" the old man asked again.
Nanjiang Hou returned to normal at this time, waved his hand and said: "No, no, I have been waiting for you for the past two days...... Hurry up, please ...... inside. Come to people, take care of the black electricity, and get the best feed...... By the way, brother, ask a question, it's not ...... to drink black electricity."
The old man and Jiang Xingchen looked at each other, what a big deal did it make a Hou Ye become incoherent.
It wasn't until he entered the house and sat down that the people sent clouds and mist water, and Nanjiang Hou's love was stabilized.
"Old boy, what the hell is going on, in such a hurry to borrow black electricity, someone has swept the racecourse of Nanjiang Ling?" the old man asked while taking a sip of water, and then pouted and put it down, never drinking again.
Nanjiang Hou thought for a while and said: "This matter is a long story, let's start with the year before last! Brother, do you remember that auction, it was the time when you auctioned off a thousand overseas slaves~!"
"Of course I remember!" Jiang Xingchen nodded, it was that time that Nanjiang Hou was forced to make the decision that Xingchen had the right to give priority to the selection of slaves~.
However, he was indeed strange that Nanjianghou's behavior at that time was too abnormal. Although more than one million is a lot, there is no need to go to auction.
"Actually, I was forced to do it at that time!" Nanjiang Hou smiled bitterly and told the truth about the year. (To be continued......)
