Chapter 54: Liu Yuan's Choice
A small house outside the city at this time.
Behind the small house is a bamboo forest, full of greenery, like a woman's long dress in the blue waves.
Qin Linglong stopped here, looking at the cordyceps around her in a daze, she seemed to have returned to the woman who was still in the Yellow Crane Tower, her face was sad and joyless.
It seems that everything in this world has nothing to do with her, and a pair of indifferent Danfeng eyes are full of stories.
"Boom!"
The bamboo forest is swaying, there is a ghost shadow jumping, setting off a lot of deciduous flying flowers, one of which is a nine-section green bamboo, there is a figure stopping.
"Do you know where Xu Ping'an came from?"
He Wushuang's voice sounded, and a pair of eyes swept over Qin Linglong, intentionally or unintentionally looking at whether she was still a girl.
Qin Linglong's pretty face was still unwavering, and she only shook her head when she looked at the moon in the sky.
"I heard that he had a conflict with Gao Xianzhi today?" He Wushuang's figure stepped out of the darkness and approached her.
"Yes. Qin Linglong said.
"Huh!"
There was a flash of silver light in He Wushuang's hand, and a three-foot soft sword was placed on Qin Linglong's neck.
His gaze swept over her like a poisonous snake: "Senior sister, you are becoming more and more strange now, you had better know what your identity is, and don't kill yourself!"
Qin Linglong only glanced at him coldly, not even willing to say a word.
He Wushuang squinted his eyes, a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes, and then he said slowly: "Once the big thing is done, you and I can regain our freedom, don't make mistakes!"
"Do what the adults have told you, this is your only chance. β
Qin Linglong took a deep breath of air, freedom?
These two words began to appear in Qin Linglong's mind at some point, and too many indescribable emotions flashed in her eyes.
Finally, he lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes and said, "My lord, what does he want me to do?"
"Just stay here and report his whereabouts, and you don't have to worry about the rest. He Wushuang put away his sword with a satisfied smile on his face.
"That's it?" Qin Linglong asked.
He Wushuang's robe shook, and his figure flickered in this bamboo forest, leaving a sentence floating here.
"There is no shortage of blood on your hands, what's wrong now? Do you want to be that incomparable Qin Linglong, ridiculous, ridiculous, I advise you not to have emotions that you shouldn't have. β
The green bamboo is swaying, quiet and true.
She stood here for a long time, unable to return to her senses, and finally turned around, her face slowly climbed back into color, like a peony revived, extremely moving.
.........
Liu Yuan seemed to have figured it out, his face finally returned to the appearance of the ancient well without waves, and after communicating well with the two of them, he waved his hand to signal the singer to stop dancing and withdrew from this place.
Xu Ping'an blinked, stared at him with a smile, and waited for the following.
"Name your chips and make me believe in you. Liu Yuan said in a deep voice.
"If you don't have enough chips to bring down the people behind Huo Wuguan, then even if the Yangzhou incident happens one day, I, Liu Yuan, would prefer to live a few more days. β
Xu Ping'an blurted out: "I am the absolute bargaining chip, and you don't have a choice." β
Liu Yuan's eyes stared at him tightly, and after looking at him for a long time, the air pressure in this place was extremely low.
Finally, he sent his hands clenched: "I really don't have a choice, and I'm tired of wearing my head on my belt like this." β
"Tell me, what do you want to know?"
Hearing this, Pu Xuan and the two did not speak, although they were of high seniority, the family business of the three brothers was all laid down by Liu Yuan's brain, so they almost believed it unconditionally.
Xu Ping'an was not surprised at all, and said, "Besides Huo Wuguan, who is the other leader of Yangzhou City?"
Liu Yuan looked at him in surprise, wondering how much he knew?
After hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yangzhou Governor Shi, Sima Jing." β
"Tell me how you usually meet. Xu Ping'an took a sip of tea.
"Huo Wuguan is in charge of the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and Sima Jing is in charge of the affairs of Yangzhou City, which rarely appear at the same time. Once they find us, there will be a lot of news, such as the giant merchant crossing the Grand Canal, where there is gold to mine, they will leave it to us. β
"The benefits obtained are almost sky-high, and nine of them have to be handed over, and we can take the rest. β
"This is what Liu Yuan is usually responsible for, such as Tian Baichuan, who is constantly recruiting green forest rogues, roaring mountains and forests, and collecting money on his own. β
"Of course, the most important thing is to make trouble, to make the affairs of Yangzhou City bigger, so that the imperial court has to distribute silver to help the people, and has to distribute silver to suppress bandits. β
"When the money arrives, Tian Baichuan and these people come forward again, let the Liukou be quiet for a while, and after a while, they come out again, and the cycle repeats. β
Xu Ping'an sneered, these guys really interpreted the words collusion between officials and bandits vividly and exquisitely.
"I remember, you have a lot of official salt hidden in this house, right?" said a little teasingly.
Liu Yuan was shocked again, and his eyes were methodical: "You, how do you know?"
Li Ji smiled, he was the one who sneaked in at the beginning, and couldn't help but say: "If Childe wants to know, no one in the world can stop him!"
Liu Yuan was difficult to calm down, it was the first time he had encountered such a terrifying young man after walking the rivers and lakes for many years, which was even more tricky than those characters on the Spring and Autumn List.
My heart was also slightly relieved, perhaps, I really made the right choice.
"Yes, the official salt is Sima Jing's handwriting, he used his way to get the official salt, or to give the Liukou route, go directly to Ming to rob it, and then hand it over to me to smuggle out of Jinlong Road. β
Xu Ping'an frowned, he had a conclusion in his heart, Yu Xuansheng said that these people wanted to change the world, and he still didn't believe it, but now he believes it.
In ancient times, the world has changed, except for the coup d'Γ©tat in Gongyu, almost all of them need huge financial resources as support, otherwise everything is empty talk.
This is also the reason why so many founding emperors kept pulling those big families as their teams before the incident.
The wealth that can be gathered in this part of Yangzhou City is enough to rival the country.
"Do you know how many such officials there are in Yangzhou City, and how much evidence of guilt?" Xu Ping'an asked.
Liu Yuan was very embarrassed, and finally said: "I only know a small part, maybe there are secrets." β
"As for the incriminating evidence," he said, looking very embarrassed, "I can only find my own." β
Xu Ping'an was almost amused by him, and after looking at it for two seconds, he felt that Liu Yuan should be lying, so he didn't ask again.
"Yes, how much do you know about the people behind Huo Wuguan?" he asked again.
Liu Yuan shook his head directly, very determined, and finally his eyes lit up, and he said uncertainly: "It may be related to the Buddha, I once vaguely heard Situ Jing say it in an action." β
"Buddha?"
"Could it be a monk?"
Xu Ping'an's mind quickly flashed over those martial arts families, in fact, there seemed to be no place related to Buddha except Lingshan.
But Lingshan can never be the black hand of Yangzhou City, Lingshan gathers the essence of heaven and earth, all the monks on the mountain almost rarely go down the mountain, and even the "Gusu" family respects Lingshan very much.
