Chapter XXIII Decisions
Shi Yuntian said again: "I don't know, it's just that I just succeeded to the throne, and the people are not convinced, and now I am in an eventful season, what do you say I should do now?"
Li Yanqing saw that he was treating him sincerely, so he replied seriously: "It has been more than half a month since the royal gate attacked the Ezhou rudder, and we must send people to Ezhou to search for the scattered brothers and appease the people, and we can't delay for a moment." It's just that the royal gate is now arrogant, and it must not be reckless to use force with it, and you can salute first and then soldier. It's just that Ye Hongchong can't go. My suggestion is to help the master stay at the helm, and Zhao Tong and I will go to Ezhou to deal with the Wang Gate, leaving Elder Wang and Ye Hongchong to deal with each other, and at the same time take care of several disciples of the Northern Water Fairy Gu. ”
When Shi Yuntian heard that he wanted to keep Ye Hongchong at the helm, he hurriedly said, "Why don't you send Ye Hongchong to Ezhou, but keep him here?"
Li Yanqing explained: "If he is sent to Ezhou, he has the military power in his hands, in case he privately befriended the Jingzhou rudder and Tanzhou rudder unite to rebel, then the situation will not be easy to clean up." ”
Shi Yuntian said: "What do you mean is that sending him out is like letting a tiger return to the mountain, and there will be endless trouble." ”
Li Yanqing nodded and said, "Exactly, if they unite together, my Aoki Gang will fall into division." ”
Shi Yuntian said: "Then wouldn't I have become a sinner of the Aoki Gang." ”
Li Yanqing said with a straight face: "Yes, so please think twice about helping the master." ”
Shi Yuntian looked troubled, not knowing how to decide.
This Li Yanqing said again: "Actually, Gang Leader Jia told me privately in the past that Ye Hong was ambitious for the wolf, and he must be guarded against. And the one who can deal with him is the artillery Wang Shipeng. ”
Shi Yuntian's face was full of shock, and he asked, "Why? Elder Wang is not Ye Hongchong's opponent in any way, how can he deal with Ye Hongchong, the old fox." ”
Li Yanqing also said: "Don't talk about you, even I don't believe it, and I haven't figured it out until now." But Jia Gang Master is a handsome person who knows how to make good use of people, and he must have his reasons. ”
After hearing this, Shi Yuntian also thought deeply.
Thinking that Jia Gang Leader recommended himself to succeed to the position of Gang Leader, wasn't it beyond everyone's expectations.
Thinking of this, he said to Li Yanqing: "Okay, then I will follow Elder Li's advice and send you and Zhao Tong to Ezhou to rescue, and Elder Wang and I will deal with Ye Hongchong, the old fox." ”
Li Yanqing looked at Shi Yuntian with relief, and remembered that the Jia Gang Master was located in him, perhaps because he found his broad mind that could listen to advice, and he couldn't help but sigh to himself.
At this moment, he admired Jia Shenyi's ability to recognize people, and his heart was much more stable.
In another room, Ye Hongchong was drinking and chatting with Wang Shipeng.
I only heard him say: "Elder Wang, I don't know how many days such a good day can live." ”
Wang Shipeng asked puzzledly: "Why do you say that?"
Ye Hongchong took a sip of wine and said, "Just now, didn't you see the attitude of the surnamed Shi, depending on the situation, he was going to send me to Ezhou." ”
That Wang Shipeng said: "Just go, what's the big deal." I still want to meet the Black Hades?"
Ye Hongchong said with a smile: "Elder Wang is upright and bold. But the one surnamed Shi didn't treat everyone equally. ”
Wang Shipeng also empathized and said: "This little Guan Yu is too, how do I see how he is not pleasing to the eye, I really don't know why Gang Leader Jia chose him as the gang leader in the first place." ”
Ye Hong said: "Who doesn't say that." ”
Wang Shipeng said again: "By the way, who do you think he will send to Ezhou this time?"
Ye Hongchong laughed out loud and said seriously: "You said that in addition to believing in Li Yanqing, how can there be several other elders in our hearts, of course, it is the three of us who are selected." However, I will definitely be sent by him. The latter sentence was actually deliberately added by him.
Wang Shipeng said: "You guess." ”
Ye Hongchong said: "Actually, he has long wanted to take me away, only in this way can he feel at ease." ”
Wang Shipeng asked, "Why don't you worry about you?"
Ye Hongchong looked at Wang Shipeng, smiled without saying a word, and then said softly to him: "Because he is afraid." ”
After Wang Shipeng heard this, he was still a monk of the second zhang, and he couldn't figure it out.
Ye Hongchong deliberately didn't explain, but just toasted to him: "Come, Elder Wang, let's drink, if my brother is in trouble at that time, I will have to rely on Elder Wang to save me." ”
After Wang Shipeng drank a few glasses of wine, he had already forgotten Ye Hongchong's previous deeds, and now he saw him blindly currying favor with himself, and he felt very useful. So he picked up the glass and touched it with him, and took a sip of it. Then he said: "Happy, you and I are brothers, don't say the kind words of those helpers." ”
Ye Hong hurriedly praised: "Brother Wang is really righteous, then I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman today, and I will definitely have a good drink with you." ”
Wang Shipeng said again: "Just drink well, don't dare to get drunk again." ”
Ye Hong said: "Okay, just listen to Brother Wang, drink well and don't get drunk." ”
The two of them raised their glasses again and drank them all.
In the afternoon of this day, Shi Yuntian once again convened the four elders to deliberate. After everyone arrived, he sat on the throne and said to everyone: "After a period of careful consideration and comparison, I now announce the candidates to go to Ezhou. ”
Seeing that everyone was holding their breath and looking at him quietly, he said loudly: "The first is Elder Li Yanqing, who is the commander of this trip to Ezhou."
Li Yanqing responded and hurriedly stood up to receive the order.
The other three all looked at Li Yanqing in surprise, and no one was speechless.
Shi Yuntian said again: "The second is Elder Zhao Tong Zhao, and you are the deputy marshal. ”
Zhao Tong hesitated for a while, then stood up reluctantly and replied, "Yes." ”
Shi Yuntian continued: "I order the two of you to take the brothers of the chief helm to set off early tomorrow morning, and hurry to Ezhou to avenge the brothers, and you must take back the hall that the royal gate robbed." ”
The two of them said loudly: "Yes, the subordinates must live up to their mission." ”
Shi Yuntian said again: "To Elder Yu Wang and Elder Ye, you will stay at the helm for backup. ”
Wang Shipeng and Ye Hongchong glanced at each other before coming out to receive the order.
Shi Yuntian said again: "Okay, you all go down and pack up, tonight I will prepare a wine Yan for the two elders to see off, and the four of them will come by then." Meeting. And he hurried away.
The four elders also left one after another, each with their own concerns.
In the evening, after Li Xinyi and her party were arranged in the room, Qin Lianfeng hurriedly found Meiyin and told her not to reveal Wang Min's identity, and also warned her of the serious consequences after leaking. Then he took Wang Min to see his senior sister Li Xinyi.
At this point, there were only three people in the room. Li Xinyi sat in the main seat in the room, and Qin Lianfeng and Wang Min stood in front of her.
I only heard Li Xinyi ask Qin Lianfeng: "Tell me, what is your relationship and how did you meet?"
Wang Min stood aside, not daring to make a sound.
Qin Lianfeng said with some hesitation: "Senior sister, she, she, she is actually the daughter of Wang Zhixing, the master of the Wang Gate, and her name is Wang Min." ”
Li Xinyi was taken aback when she heard this, looked at Wang Min with a frightened face, and asked her, "Are you the daughter of Wang Zhixing, the king of Black Hell?"
Wang Min nodded cautiously.
Li Xinyi turned her eyes to Qin Lianfeng again, and said to him fiercely in a reproachful tone: "You know someone who is not good, you have to have something to do with the young lady of the royal family, you know that if it is discovered by the Aoki Gang, not only will her life be in danger, but it may also affect us, and the master's grievances will become darker and darker, do you know, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
Qin Lianfeng lowered his head, not daring to answer immediately, and let his senior sister count him.
After a long time, he said cautiously: "It's too late to say anything now, now it's better to hide her identity and not let the people of the Aoki Gang find out." ”
Li Xinyi said: "This is natural, by the way, Meiyin is from Ezhou with you, does she know about it?"
Qin Lianfeng nodded uneasily, and said resignedly: "Not only does she know, but this eldest lady is also an accomplice in killing her grandfather, and Meiyin hates her to the core." ”
Li Xinyi's face became extremely ugly, and she said in surprise: "What, they are still enemies? You are really a master who can cause trouble." "My heart suddenly became nervous.
I only heard Qin Lianfeng hurriedly say: "Senior sister, please rest assured, I have already told Meiyin to keep this secret and never let her identity be exposed." ”
Li Xinyi was a little relieved and said, "It's good that you know." But she didn't seem to be satisfied with this, and said a little worriedly: "You have to watch her well, don't let her run around and say nothing." ”
Qin Lianfeng hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Li Xinyi said to Wang Min again: "And you, stay in the room if you're okay and don't come out." ”
Wang Min replied softly, "I know." ”
After the two came out of Li Xinyi's room, Wang Min followed behind Qin Lianfeng and said happily, "Thank you for saving me." ”
Qin Lianfeng turned around and whispered to her: "You'd better talk less in the future, stay in the house and don't run around, be careful that the wall has ears." ”
Wang Min nodded very obediently, as well-behaved as a gentle kitten.
She said to Qin Lianfeng affectionately: "Brother Qin, don't leave me alone." ”
Qin Lianfeng had already sensed a different flavor in her tone, but at this time, he couldn't directly say hard words to reject her, so as not to cause trouble, so he comforted her: "Don't worry, I will definitely take you out of the Aoki Gang safely, you go back to the room quickly, remember not to run around." ”
Wang Min said with a happy face: "I believe in your promise just now. She reluctantly walked to her room.
Qin Lianfeng came to Meiyin's room again, and saw that she was in a daze in the room alone, so he called out softly: "Miss Meiyin, what are you doing alone in a daze." ”
Seeing that Qin Lianfeng was coming, Meiyin hurriedly got up to sit down, and wiped the tears that had just flowed with her sleeves.
Qin Lianfeng asked, "Why are you crying?"
Meiyin said: "It's nothing, it's just that my eyes are uncomfortable." ”
Qin Lianfeng said with concern: "Then do you want me to help you see if it has entered the sand." ”
