Chapter 375: Leave
Lord Duan looked at a group of several cultivators, with more than half of his net worth, swaggering away and entering the darkness in the distance.
The butler who followed a few people looked at him helplessly as he walked. What can he do? The thing was given, and he also counted the big ship of the Heavenly Soul Sect, and the other party promised not to let him see the prefect, but he didn't want to go to the door, and suddenly offered to let his housekeeper lead the way!
Lord Duan sighed softly, not only did he not say anything to the housekeeper's request for help, but he didn't even give a hint, and still saw off a few people with a respectful face!
Listening to the footsteps in front of him getting farther and farther, the housekeeper had no idea, and rushed into the darkness without looking back!
For a long time, until he could no longer hear a single sound, Master Duan slowly put away the hypocritical smirk on his face, and his body was half-bowed, looking at the darkness in front of him with blank eyes.
"Master!" came a whisper of embarrassment and distress behind him.
Lord Duan came back to his senses and turned his head to see his wife standing behind him, and by the light at the door, he could still see his wife's pale face and slightly trembling figure!
Master Duan's voice was a little dry, but he rarely relaxed his tone a lot, and said, "Don't be afraid, madam, they're gone, it's okay!"
Madame stepped forward, held Lord Duan's hand tightly, and said with a little choked up: "Master! These people are too deceitful! How can you say that you are also an official of the imperial court, since you promised to help them, you don't need them to be grateful, but you can't think so much about the Fa to harm you!"
How much money does her own family have, the lady knows in her heart, although she feels uncomfortable when she gives the silver to outsiders, but after all, it is related to the life of the whole family, and it is not the time for her to feel sorry for the silver! But since these people have received the silver, why do they want the housekeeper to follow them to see the prefect, isn't this selling their own house?
Once the prefect has a conflict with these people, the housekeeper who led the way is afraid that he will be hated by the prefect at the first time, even if the prefect and the lord are not in harmony, but the apparent peace still has to be maintained, this has to tear their faces because of them, how will the lord who is a subordinate official live under the prefect in the future?
Lord Duan was more open than his wife, he half-helped his wife and slowly walked back, while sorting out his mood, and whispered, "It's okay!"
Since he has taken the first step, he is tied to the Heavenly Soul Sect, what about the prefect? Looking at the style of these people today, I am afraid that there will be no less conflicts between the government and them in the future, and once these people are full-fledged, will they continue to endure it? How can their power be matched by a small prefect?
But the lady was still chattering: "But we used so much silver to buy their compromise, how did they change their minds in a blink of an eye?
Master Duan had a smile on his face, and whispered to comfort his wife, but his heart kept turning.
As for the matter of building a branch altar in the future, he is not afraid that they will ask for it, but he is afraid that they will not squeak, and as long as he has closer ties with them, is it still difficult to borrow their strength?
If you have this kind of power in your hands, let alone the prefect, is it still difficult to let the senior officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee die suddenly? I am afraid that my official career will only become wider and wider in the future, and what is it? What is that?
The husband didn't know that the master had thought so much, but he still looked at his master with a nervous face, and asked in a low voice: "Will the prefect know through these people that we are the mastermind behind those things?"
Lord Duan nodded slowly, he was not afraid that the prefect would know that the person who kidnapped his son was himself, anyway, he had no evidence, the two were not originally a faction, and there were many open and secret fights, not much more than this one.
However, what worries him is those people from the Heavenly Soul Sect, since they can win over themselves, will they go to win over the prefect again? Once the prefect defects to the Heavenly Soul Sect like himself, then he will have no advantage in the future!
If you want to deal with the prefect through the Heavenly Soul Sect, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult! And your own surrender will also lose its meaning, not only will the silver not be spent, but I am afraid that it will cause a lot of trouble for yourself!
But even if he knew that this was the case, he had to do it, if he didn't take this step, who knew what the prefect would do? At that time, the consequences would only be worse than now! Since those people from the Heavenly Soul Sect appeared, the initiative was not in his hands! Whether it was him or the prefect, they were just fish on the chopping block!
Because of the methods of the people of the Heavenly Soul Sect, Lord Duan and his wife can be said to be physically and mentally exhausted! Although those people left, the two who relaxed felt even more weak, so the two of them walked very slowly along the way.
But they didn't know that among the maids who had been forgotten by them on the ground, two of them slowly got up after they left!
One of them, a taller girl, looked around, and from time to time gently kicked the other girls with his feet to see if any of them had woken up, but he whispered to another girl:
"Mu Yao! I really made you right, the people of the Heavenly Soul Sect really found this Tongzhi master! But these people are too ruthless, they are just a few little girls, is it necessary to use such a heavy drug? Not afraid of killing people?"
Li Muyao, who pretended to be a little girl, didn't care about the life or death of those girls, but instead checked the study and casually praised Erya: "You're still amazing! If you hadn't come up with the idea of asking Mrs. Duan to make supper for Master Duan, would we be able to catch up with this good show?"
Li Muyao was also quite lucky, they wanted to get in before, but they just wanted to take the opportunity to inquire about some news, but they didn't expect to bump into the people of the Heavenly Soul Sect by mistake tonight.
She and Erya just used the disguise technique to blend into the little girl ring who had just entered the mansion, taking advantage of the fact that they were newcomers and were not familiar with the people in the house, they wanted to fish in troubled waters, but they didn't expect to meet people from the Heavenly Soul Sect to find Master Duan, but fortunately, the people from the Heavenly Soul Sect didn't take a few little girl rings to heart.
If these people are really ruthless and kill people when they see them, then it is really difficult for them and Erya to pass this level, and it is not good to kill these people! I don't want to be exposed, let alone really hurt!
It seems that he is still too reckless this time, and he still has few means to face the cultivators himself!
Er Ya was not idle, she released the two little girl rings out of the space, these two people were the original owners that she and Li Muyao pretended to be! Originally, the two of them were also in a coma, and it was just right to put them in the middle of a group of unconscious girl rings, saving themselves a lot of means!
After carefully checking it and finding nothing missing, Li Muyao beckoned and walked out of the door with Erya, Erya looked at the room full of good things, and looked back with some nostalgia, it was a pity, it couldn't be ransacked!
