Chapter 159: Let's talk about cooperation
In the early morning of the next day, Hong En sent a message and asked them to meet at the Xianglou at noon.
"It seems that Zhang Yitu has agreed to see us. Wu Xing showed a relaxed look.
At noon, when the two went to the appointment, they were a little surprised to see the person sitting in the room.
The man was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe trimmed with gold thread, with a handsome face, and a smile on the corner of his lips, "Don't come unharmed." ”
Zhang Yitu stood behind him with his head bowed.
It turned out to be home, that Li Erlang.
"Don't be inhibited, just sit down. ”
It just so happened that the two of them didn't want to salute him at all, so they immediately sat down.
There are not so many red tape and rules in the rivers and lakes, the three of them sat at the same table, and Li Erlang poured a cup of tea and blew it gently.
"I know more than him, and it's the same with me. He smiled.
There were some wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and he also grew a beard in the middle of the person, and he looked a lot more mature, but he still felt so out of tune, Wu Xing couldn't help but complain in his heart, is it because there are not enough twists and turns? Why does the family look so idle? This kind of thing has to be taken care of personally?
The complaint in his heart was just a flash, and in a moment, Wu Xing had already figured out how to answer.
"My Holy Sect and Wulin Mei conflicted, I think Zun Jia also knows, a few days ago, I got the news that several sects of the Wulin League have the power of the imperial court behind them to be secretly manipulated, so I wanted to ask Lord Zhang, I don't know which royal court official is surnamed Wang?" Wu Xing replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Oh?" Li Erlang's eyes showed a hint of interest, "The king is the surname in the palace, and there are many people with the surname Wang among the attendants, as for the court officials of the palace, I really don't have any impression." ”
Hearing this, Wu Xing and Peng Xueyi showed disappointed expressions, but saw Li Erlang's words change, "But I do remember, my brother's court official is like a man surnamed Wang, Zhang Yitu, do you remember?"
Zhang Yitu said in a low voice, "Yes, the court official of King Cheng's Mansion is indeed surnamed Wang." ”
It's a pity that King Cheng and his children are dead, and only a few vassals who are related to him are left to be assigned to the border pass.
"I don't know where this court official of King Cheng's Mansion went after King Cheng was beheaded?"
Li Erlang sneered, "Where else can I go? Dead, he is a close confidant of King Cheng, and it is useless for me to ask him." ”
At that time, just in case, he still sent Zhang Yitu to do it himself.
I have to do it, the Cheng Wangfu is really hidden, and the court official surnamed Wang actually knows the martial arts cheats in the palace, which makes him a little surprised.
He's dead?
Peng Xueao frowned, feeling that this matter was not so simple, "Isn't Gongzi Li worried?"
"What are you worried about?" Li Erlang raised his eyebrows.
Peng Xueyi said word by word, "The family and the country are uneasy, and they don't bless their children." ”
I didn't expect Peng Xuelong to say such a rebellious thing, before Li Erlang could do anything, Zhang Yitu couldn't sit still first, and a trace of anger flashed on his face, "You!"
"Hey. Li Erlang raised his hand to stop Zhang Yitu's unspoken words, his eyes showed interest, he wanted to control the rivers and lakes through the Yin Moon Sect five years ago, Changyang Bo has only had some deterrent power in Changyang for many years, and it is really too useless.
The Yin Moon Sect is quite powerful, and everyone in the rivers and lakes is afraid of it, but its reputation is a little worse, but it doesn't matter, as long as the Yin Moon Sect is willing to surrender to him, and the two parties cooperate for a win-win situation, reputation is not a big deal, after all, public opinion is not something that cannot be controlled.
It's a pity that five years ago, Li Erlang saw their reluctant intentions, so he didn't force it, and didn't mention the rest of the matter.
Now it seems that the newly emerging young sect leader of the Yin Moon Sect has a long-term vision than all of them, so it is not out of luck to bring up the old matter
Li Erlang chuckled, changed his words, and looked at Wu Xing, "Ah Wudu has grown so big, I don't know if you still remember Er Jiaxu, he also mentioned you to me recently." ”
Wu Xing was puzzled, and he was a little puzzled about why the topic suddenly turned here, and he didn't answer easily.
Li Erlang didn't care, and continued, "In two years, Jiaxu will be crowned and married, but I don't have a suitable candidate yet, it just so happens that you saved the prince's life before, and there was no reward for protecting the prince, so if you were given the position of a side concubine, it would be the best of both worlds." ”
Peng Xueao looked at him fixedly for a long time, and then pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed, "Ah Wu is my right-hand man, I can't do without her, if Li Gongzi marries the daughter of the family to me as a side room, it is also the method of double perfection." ”
Li Erlang's words were forcefully rejected by him, he wanted Wu Xing to be a side concubine for Prince Nalaoshzi, so he asked Li Erlang's princess to be his concubine!
He has the idea of cooperating with the royal family, but this does not mean that he is willing to be subservient
The princess of a dignified country gave a reckless concubine to the rivers and lakes, and it was a shame that he could say this! Zhang Yitu suddenly slapped the table and shouted angrily, "Presumptuous! Do you know who you are talking to now!?"
Peng Xueyi was not affected at all, but asked back with a puzzled look, I know, don't you know?
Zhang Yi was speechless in vain, but Li Erlang laughed, "It's a good thing that friends are a little sharp, don't be like some old people, cowering, and be content with it." ”
Peng Xueao's proud chin accepted his praise, and Li Erlang took a sip of tea helplessly, but felt that this young man was somewhat familiar, and found relevant fragments from his memory.
He took a fresh look at this beautiful and overly young man, far from the really lively child in his memory, maybe a place like the Yin Moon Sect could make anyone who was originally ignorant of the world grow up.
Li Erlang straightened up, and finally put Peng Xueao on an equal footing to talk, he meant something, "I remember that I promised you before, the next time we meet, I will invite you to eat delicious food, why don't you just do it today." ”
"I can't ask for it. Peng Xueyi replied with a smile.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and drank a cup of tea instead of wine, indicating that the two had reached a preliminary consensus.
Wu Xing didn't know why, but he still went out with him and left the space in the room for Peng Xueao and the others.
After closing the door, Zhang Yitu casually beckoned the guys in the store and asked them to serve some good wine and food, and the guys agreed and ran downstairs.
Zhang Yitu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly, "Your young sect leader is really bold, I'm still worried that my family will be angry, and it will be difficult for you to get out of Yang'an City." ”
"No, it won't. Wu Xing said lightly.
"What?" Zhang Yitu was a little surprised, feeling as if he hadn't heard clearly.
"It's not going to be hard, with me, he's going anywhere. Seeing this, Wu Xing patiently explained.
Hearing this, Zhang Yitu stared at her with a strange expression, and only said after a while, "It turns out that your arrogance is all in the same line, is this the Yin Moon Sect tradition?"
