Lu Dingyong frowned, and said in a deep voice: "This matter involves a wide range of issues, and this official can't decide privately, everything has to wait for news from Tianjing." ”

After Wan Rongde heard this, a slight look of disappointment appeared on his face. However, he also knew in his heart that the one who could raze the helm of Wantong Qianzhuang at the feet of the Son of Heaven overnight was definitely an extremely terrifying force, and such an enemy was not something that Wantong Qianzhuang could provoke.

Xu Lao has already appeared, how many people in his mansion can be trusted? Wan Rongde looked around, looking at familiar faces, but he was not sure in his heart.

"Mr. Wan, I wonder if Wantong Qianzhuang is operating normally in Tianjing now?" Shui Xie pondered for a while and asked.

"Since we and Tianjing have carrier pigeons delivering news every day, we have learned about some recent situations. Wan Rongde muttered: "The general helm of Wantong has been re-established, and the masters have been re-assigned to guard day and night, and the turnover of all silver coins is very normal, and nothing has happened for the time being." ”

"Is everything really normal?" asked Shuixie again, an unpredictable glint in his eyes.

"Everything is really normal, and with the help of my eldest brother, all business is back on track. Wan Rongde's tone was very affirmative and confident.

"What about the southwestern side that you preside over, and is there anything new that has arisen?"

Hearing Shuixie say this, Wan Rongde's old face flushed slightly, and he smiled reluctantly, and said: "I was plotted by someone and was bedridden for many days, during my serious illness, all the business in the southwest was originally presided over by the little girl Junyao, but later it was taken over by the eldest brother, so that Junyao could concentrate on taking care of me." As for the business in the southwest, it is still normal, and there is no abnormal situation in the operation of money and grain. ”

"Oh, it turns out that Wantong Money is safe. Shui Xie blew lightly, stared at the tea leaves hovering up and down in the teacup, and said with a faint smile: "Mr. Wan, does this mean that your eldest brother Wan Rongkun has already compromised with the other party?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall gasped and looked incredulous.

"This can't be!" Wan Rongde stood up suddenly, looking very excited: "What kind of person the eldest brother is, no one knows better than me!"

Lu Dingyong also stood up, patted Wan Rongde's shoulder gently, and said, "Mr. Wan, don't be impatient, just listen to what Shui Xie has to say." ”

"If Mr. Wan Rongkun is not a person who knows how to stretch and bend, how can he develop Wantong Qianzhuang to this point today? If you want to keep this foundation that is full of pure martial arts and rich in the world, Mr. Wan, empathize, if you were asked to choose, what would you do? If the other party threatened your family's life again, would you choose to compromise?" Shui Xie's question made everyone in the hall fall into deep thought.

Wan Rongde's back was slightly dripping with cold sweat, thinking of the fact that he was secretly ill, could it be that the eldest brother really compromised?

"Wantong Money Village is controlled by the head of Tianjing, and it is said that everything is normal at this time, but who can know about the turbulent undercurrent underground? Similarly, Mr. Wan Rongkun may be concerned about his brother's life and the century-old foundation of Wantong Bank, so he has to make a compromise decision and hide it from you. ”

"Alas!" Wan Rongde sat down heavily, looking to believe a little bit in the water pavilion's inference.

"Who is sneaking around outside the window?" Shui Xie suddenly shouted as his ears moved, and his figure flashed out of the hall like lightning!

Everyone was taken aback by this sudden turn of events, and they all looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. With their humble martial arts cultivation, they can't detect anyone eavesdropping outside the window no matter what.

Only Wang Weidong's reaction was quite fast, and with a wave of his long sword, he also rose up and chased out.

When the water pavilion came out of the hall, he saw a figure running quickly, it seemed that he was very good at light body kung fu, the route he took was tortuous and weird, like a long snake swimming, and he was quite familiar with the terrain of Wanfu, avoided all obstacles, and ran out of the backyard of Wanfu in just a few steps.

"Good skills! What kind of light skill is this?" Seeing that this person's light skills are really good, Shui Xie's eyes froze, and his legs kicked slightly, and he had already jumped out like a leopard. Under the full force of Yang Long's activation, ordinary people were far behind the water pavilion in terms of speed.

However, this man relied on his familiarity with the terrain, and every time he flickered and moved, he led the water pavilion to some obstacles, so that it could not always exert its true speed.

"Who the hell are you?" Shui Xie was very familiar with the back of the fleeing man, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.

"How can I let you escape from me!" Suddenly a harrier turned over, and the figure of the water pavilion rose from the ground, like a leaf in the sky, swept through the corridors, and floated straight forward!

"Can you still walk?" Shui Xue's body was still in the air, his fingers flicked continuously, and several imperceptible sharp qi shot into the calves of the fleeing man!

"Ahh

The water pavilion flipped a few times in succession, and fell steadily from the air, standing in front of the fleeing man, with a solemn look in his eyes.

"It turned out to be you. Shui Xie's eyes were like electricity, and his tone was cold.

......

Above the hall in the backyard, Wan Rongde looked at the kneeling people below and was heartbroken.

"Wan Ming, Wan Ming, I asked myself if I was good for you, I have cultivated you for so many years, but I didn't expect you to do such a thing of selling out for glory!"

The one who eavesdropped outside the hall before was Wan Ming, the official in the front yard of Wanfu. He would never have thought that he had secretly cultivated light skills for many years, and his mastery of footsteps was so wonderful that he would never make the slightest sound, and he would be discovered by this water pavilion.

If Wan Ming understood what the similar realm of heaven and earth was, I am afraid that he would be annoyed and want to die of his carelessness.

This time the failure indicates that years of lurking have been wasted, Wan Ming knows that he must not live long, and sits on the ground weakly, drooping his head, and the whole person looks extremely depressed.

At this time, Wan Rongde was completely like a sad old man. He didn't understand why the person who had been with him for so many years turned out to be someone else's undercover agent!

"Wan Ming, give me a reason!" Wan Rongde roared, his face flushed, and the green tendons on his neck burst out. He couldn't suppress his anger anymore, and there was no way, and whoever found out that his family was actually a traitor wouldn't be too comfortable! Who was the person he could trust in this huge Wanfu compound? After one blow after another, Wan Rongde was already a little suspicious, and he was completely on the verge of collapse.

"Hmph," Wan Ming snorted coldly: "I'm not a person from Wanfu in the first place, and I don't want to be a good person at this time!"

"Father, don't be angry with this kind of person, you are still too weak, don't hurt your body again. Wan Junyao gently beat her father's back and said distressedly.

"Mr. Wan, don't be excited, calm down first, just leave the matter here to this official. Lu Dingyong said slowly.

Wan Rongde's face was cloudy, with a sickly flush, nodded, and said apologetically, "Today's family ugliness in Wanfu has made Lord Taishou and all the distinguished guests see the joke." After that, Wan Rongde directly closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, unwilling to look at Wan Ming again.

"Wan Ming, this official asks you," Lu Dingyong asked, "Could it be that you are also an undercover agent sent by the Xu family to investigate the news?"

Wan Ming's eyes showed a cold look, nodded heavily, as if he had made a lot of determination, and said word by word: "You guessed right, I am General Zhenwei's subordinate, specially lurking in the Wanfu compound to monitor Wan Rongde's every move!"

Hearing this, Wan Rongde's body trembled again, and the muscles on his face couldn't help but begin to twitch.

Wan Ming's answer seemed to be expected by Lu Dingyong: "In that case, how did you get in touch with your Xu family's upline?"

"Lord Lu, slow down. Shui Xie interrupted Lu Dingyong's questioning, once again showed a meaningful smile, bowed slightly, stared at Wan Ming's eyes, and said, "Are you really from the Xu family?"

Being stared at by the bottomless pupils of the water pavilion, Wan Ming's heart was a little hairy, but he still replied: "That's natural, I'm in this situation, can I still lie?"

Seeing this, Lu Dingyong nodded slightly, although he was very sure that Wan Ming was a member of the Xu family, but he did not speak at this time, waiting for the next step of the Water Pavilion. For this young man, he has always had an inexplicable confidence in his heart.

Shui Xie stood up, walked around Wan Ming a few times, and muttered: "Wan Ming, I was chasing you outside just now, and I saw that your light skills were first-class, I don't know which sect you came from?"

Wan Ming sneered again and again: "Why, even the light skills I have learned have to be reported to Your Excellency?

Shui Xie spat lightly: "Your exercises are not the same as Xu Zilong, but it seems to be a strange light skill in the Grassland Holy Mountain-Snake Battlefield!"
