Tuoba step-ancestor waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's just a trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning!"

He smiled bitterly in his heart, not because he didn't want to talk about his troubles. Instead, he knew that the person in front of him was highly skilled and calculating. If I ask him to help, it will definitely be a trivial matter. But when the other party wants to reciprocate, he will be overwhelmed.

Murong Ao seemed to understand everything, and an unfathomable smile appeared on his face. In the past two days, the capital has been in an uproar, and Tuoba Jizu and Kou Jie gambled with an unknown boy in Joy Villa, and lost miserably. How can this kind of news be hidden from him?

Tuoba step-ancestor didn't want to say it, and Murong Ao naturally wouldn't reveal people's scars.

The two of them entered the room and sat down separately, and Tuoba step-ancestor said: "How long do you plan to stay in Beijing this time? If you stay for a long time, I can just do my landlord's friendship and take my brother around to play!"

He said it politely, but in his heart, he didn't want Murong Ao to stay in the capital for a long time.

Murong Ao smiled and said, "Brother, my deal this time is a bit big, I'm afraid I'll have to stay in the capital for a little longer!"

Hearing this, Tuoba Jizu's face changed, his mouth was bitter, and he smiled dryly: "Yes, I don't know what kind of business it is this time? I guess I can make a lot of money again, right?"

Murong Ao smiled indifferently and said, "The business on the surface is just a small profit. But my brother can make a lot of money by carrying some things into the cargo ship of Caoyun!"

Hearing him openly say these illegal things, Tuoba Step-Ancestor's face was a little ugly. But smuggling is not a big case, and if Tuoba step-ancestor is angry about this matter, he will seem a little timid. So he could only laugh: "Oh? I don't know what kind of treasure it is?"

Murong Ao smiled: "It's nothing, it's just some blades and firearms!"

Tuoba Step-Ancestor's face turned pale, I really wish I hadn't heard what I had just said. He was so frightened that he didn't say a word, and sat dumbfounded.

Murong Ao laughed lightly, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his laughter. He got up and sat down next to Tuoba step-ancestor, and whispered: "Brother Tuoba, brother's ambition is great, but he has nothing to hide from Brother Tuoba." This time, my brother is well prepared, and he is going to give it a go!"

"Ah......" Step-Ancestor's face became paler and paler, "You...... Why are you telling me?"

Murong said proudly: "Brother Tuoba, although we have different surnames, our ancestors are of the same clan. If you don't tell your brother about such an important thing, who else can you tell it? Shouldn't this wealth be enjoyed by our brothers?"

Tuoba step-ancestor snorted and said, "You don't talk about your ancestors." The ancestors of our two families used to fight each other, and it is not a brotherhood!"

Murong Ao smiled and said: "Calling back and forth, aren't they all brothers? Now that the Central Plains is dominated by Han people, and we are all foreigners, shouldn't we be more connected with each other, life and death?"

Tuoba step-ancestor snorted and didn't say anything. It turned out that neither he nor Murong Ao were Han. The Tuoba clan is a member of the party, and Murong Ao is a Xianbei person. These two ethnic groups had a stir in the Central Plains during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. The two ethnic groups live in close proximity, and they are both neighbors and enemies.

Since the unification of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and as for today's Great Song Dynasty, the party has declined. Tuoba Jizu is the most partial branch of the Eight Clans of the Dangxiang Tuoba Clan, and he moved to Guannai very early and became a martial arts family.

Seeing that Tuoba step-ancestor did not speak, Murong Ao said again: "The Han people have a saying that they are not of my race, and their hearts will be different. This is what they say about us foreigners, but for us, aren't they the same as the Han people? Brother Tuoba, you are enjoying such wealth now, do you already feel that you have been recognized by the Great Song Dynasty? Hmph, Brother Tuoba, don't forget, the Li clan of Xiazhou is the Tuoba clan of the party. Now that they are against the Great Song Dynasty, do you think the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is really so relieved of you?"

Tuoba Jizu's face changed, his lips trembled twice, and he couldn't say a word.

Murong Ao sneered and said, "Brother Tuoba, if you keep interrupting, you will suffer from it." Why didn't Brother Tuoba make a decision earlier? Tonight, I held a banquet at the Joy Villa and invited Brother Cao Houye, Brother Nangong, and Brother Kou Jie. Brother Tuoba, if you don't know what to do, why don't you see what your brothers think?"

Tuoba step-ancestor was stunned for a moment, and said blankly: "Could it be ...... A few of them have already ...... you."

Murong Ao didn't answer, pulled Tutuo's step-ancestor's hand, and said with a smile: "It's not early, let's go to Joy Mountain Villa slowly, the time is just right." Let's go!"

Tuoba step-ancestor was dragged out of the door by him without saying anything, and the two of them rode out of the city in the same carriage.

When I arrived at Joy Hills, it was just as dinner was about to begin. Nangong Jun and Kou Jie's frames arrived one after another, and several people were no strangers, laughing and talking, and entered Baiwei Building. Murong Ao had already booked the most secluded private room, and after a short time, all kinds of delicacies, good wines and delicacies were served one after another.

Murong Ao looked at the sky and said with a smile: "It seems that Marquis Cao is busy with everything, and he can't take care of our party!"

Kou Jie couldn't help but pouted and said: "People are dignified Hou Ye, so naturally they also want to make friends with Hou Ye, where can we afford to be like us?"

The four people in the audience all knew that the Hou Ye he was talking about was the newly crowned Guiyi Hou Chen Ao. This matter has been made public today, and everyone knows about it, and for a time the capital was in an uproar. Coupled with the gambling game two days ago, Chen Ao suddenly became famous in the capital. Many people want to meet this legendary figure, and many girls in the boudoir heard that Chen Ao, who dared to gamble with Kou Jie and others, was ranked as a marquis at a young age, and was still the leader of the martial arts alliance, and was even more in love.

Kou Jie's words were quite sour, but they also spoke the heart of Tuoba Jizu Nangong Jun.

Murong Ao was naturally clear, and pretended to be surprised: "That one named Chen Ao, I have also heard that the salt gang in the Jiangnan area has made a lot of noise. But I heard that his name as the leader of the martial arts alliance is just a joke, and it is impossible for anyone to take it seriously, let alone any gang that will listen to him. ”

Nangong Jun sighed: "That's what I said, but how many foolish men and fools are there in this world? Although no one on the rivers and lakes will take it seriously, there are already many people in this capital who believe it to be true! What is even more hateful is that the official family actually believes it is true, and even made him a righteous marquis. ”

Murong Ao said with a little deep meaning: "Oh, how can this scene be a little familiar?"

Nangong Jun asked, "What do you mean?"

Murong Ao said with a smile: "This was just more than ten years ago, and it is a close relationship with you, how can you forget? In order to eliminate Su Zhuo's influence on the rivers and lakes, Emperor Taizong promoted your fathers exceptionally, and all of them were awarded rich titles. Thinking about it now, isn't it a little similar to today's events?"

The faces of several people in the audience changed. Nangong Jue and Tuoba Jizu both understood the stakes and didn't dare to speak for a while. Kou Jie was so bold that he couldn't help but say, "Brother Murong is saying that the official family wants to deal with the four of us?"

Murong Ao said with a smile: "It's impossible to deal with it, but presumably the official family is also afraid that your family tail will not be big, and they want to support Chen Ao to come out and check and balance!"

Tuoba Jizu said: "Since this matter is the idea of the official family, it is no wonder that Brother Cao did that." In this way, we really shouldn't provoke Chen Ao anymore......"

Nangong Jun's face was gloomy, and he said gloomily: "Wealth is earned by yourself, can a little Chen Ao climb on our heads?"

Kou Jie suddenly felt reasonable, and also agreed. Murong Ao smiled when he saw the opportunity: "Junior brother now has a clever plan, which can not only help you teach Chen Ao a lesson and eliminate disasters forever, but also help you stay rich forever!"

"Oh, I want to hear about it!"

Murong Ao approached and whispered his thoughts. Several people in the audience were speechless in shock, and after a long time, Nangong Jun came back to his senses, slapped the table, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, just do it!"
