Chapter 381: Checks and Balances
As if seeing Ling Heng's displeasure, Wu Zheng smiled and put down the wine glass in his hand.
"Mr. Ling, don't be so nervous, I'm just talking casually," Wu Zheng said, looking at Nangong Jiuxiang again, "Okay, Nangong Family Master, I remember that I didn't invite you today, this is an uninvited thing, but it's a bit embarrassing for the Beichen Super Family, let's leave quickly." ”
Seeing that the other two didn't speak, Wu Zheng took the opportunity to pull the person on the chair up.
He was about to push this guy out of the door, but was stopped by Ling Heng reaching out.
"I'm really embarrassed, Second Prince, the head of the Nangong family still has to talk to us. ”
"What else is there to talk about, what he knows is nothing more than some skins, this, I don't think I need to say more, you should be able to think about it, right?" Wu Zheng didn't explain anything, but it seemed that everything was clear.
Looking at this tense atmosphere, Nangong Jiuxiang's whole body was soaked with sweat.
"It's nothing, it's just that Bai Yifan, the commander of Beichen, has committed some things in Tiandu, and we want to ask the head of the Nangong family to assist in the investigation. Ling Heng was very straightforward.
Since he, Wu Zheng, likes to engage in mystery, then he will do the opposite, and simply give out what they want to do to see how the other party can parry.
Really.
After hearing what Ling Heng said, the smile on Wu Zheng's face also retracted.
"As far as I know, Bai Zhanshuai doesn't seem to be on the list of visits, could it be that the two of you made a mistake, or is someone pretending to be Bai Zhanshuai?" Wu Zheng frowned slightly, helping Bai Yifan to refute.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Jiuxiang on the side seemed to see something very surprised, and stared at the second prince beside him in disbelief.
Ling Heng even found that although Wu Zheng said so, his eyes did not change at all.
"If that's the case, we will naturally investigate it and give Bai Zhanshuai a clean slate. The Führer also did not take the matter.
Looking at Ling Heng and Wu Zheng confronting each other, Nangong Jiuxiang's face was full of fear at this time.
You must know that he has already understood Ling Heng's strength, if he really wants to do it now, I am afraid that the second prince is not an opponent at all.
"Since that's the case, then according to what the Führer said, I'll wait for your news," Wu Zheng said and looked at Nangong Jiuxiang, "However, since I am asking the head of the Nangong family, I think I am here, there should be no problem, right?"
Hearing this, the Führer did not answer in a hurry, but looked at Ling Heng beside him, wanting to see his reaction.
"I look at the head of the Nangong family, and I don't seem to know any too critical news, since the second prince came to look for it, he took it away. Ling Heng gave him face.
Even so, Wu Zheng thanked him first. Wu Zheng was also unambiguous, and immediately thanked the two of them.
Who knows, just as he was about to take Nangong Jiuxiang away, Ling Heng stretched out his hand again in front of the door, blocking the way of the two of them.
"Mr. Ling, is there anything else?" Wu Zheng asked with a frown.
Ling Heng stared at him, his face slightly gloomy: "It's nothing, I just want to make a promise to the second prince." ”
"What promise?"
"If I have evidence of Bai Yifan's crime in Dahua, will you Beichen cover it up?"
If you don't get this kind of thing done at such a time, I am afraid that it will immediately turn into a contradiction between the two countries, or even if the contradiction rises and turn into a war.
Nangong Jiuxiang, whose face had just softened a little, became nervous again after hearing this.
Staring at Wu Zheng beside him, he understood that if the second prince couldn't give a full answer, the two of them might be here today.
This time, the Beichen royal family sent him out because he was not favored, and if he could really die here, it would become an excuse to be able to go to war.
Remembering that the news that his time was running out had already been known, Ling Heng even wondered if Beichen had deliberately sent Wu Zheng over to make excuses for the war in the future.
Wu Zheng looked at Ling Heng, and for some reason, a trace of depression and joy flashed in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I can't promise this. ”
Seeing that the other party said that, the corners of Ling Heng's mouth rose slightly, as if he saw this guy's current situation.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Zheng gave other answers: "However, since I, Beichen, did not send Bai Zhanshuai over, I think the person you saw should be fake, if so, when the time comes, we Beichen will naturally not pursue it." ”
Wu Zheng said this very cleverly.
He didn't say it all, and he didn't say no.
Anyone who is a little smarter can hear the meaning.
'Bai Yifan, he must be here, but we don't admit it, he is dead, it has nothing to do with us, and similarly, what he did here has nothing to do with us. ’
"If there is a second prince, then I will be relieved. Ling Heng smiled and nodded, then slowly turned around and made way for the two of them.
Seeing this, Wu Zheng hugged his fists at the two people in front of him, and then took Nangong Jiuxiang and walked out.
The two of them went out at this time, and Nangong Jiuxiang sighed: "I want to thank the second prince this time." ”
Listening to his words, Wu Zheng's eyes became gloomy: "I took the risk to save you, naturally you are still useful, as for the future, I think you should know what to do, right?"
"Second prince rest assured, from today onwards, the only second prince of my Nangong family is the first to look forward, and he will do his best to assist, if necessary, even if it is a catastrophe, my Nangong Jiuxiang is also duty-bound!"
Nangong Jiuxiang said these words are indeed true, just by rescuing him from the hands of the two just now, this great favor will be difficult to repay.
"By the way, have you seen this Ling Heng?"
"Well, I have some friendship with the Fang family, and I have lived in their house during this time, and Ling Heng is Fang Ran's husband," Facing the inquiry, Nangong Jiuxiang also explained in 1510, and then said in surprise: "What, does the second prince have concerns about him?"
Listening to this answer, Wu Zheng looked up at the starry sky, and his thoughts also returned to a few years ago.
At that time, that guy really made him admire.
At that time, I let him go back, but I was only impressed by the spirit of that guy.
Since then, the two of them have been in very different situations.
Within a few days, Dahua had an additional four-star commander.
And he ...... Because he let people go at that time, he was spurned by the royal family from then on, and the others gradually left him, so that now he is sent to this kind of visiting errand.
"The head of the Nangong family. ”
"Second prince, please speak. ”
"This Dahua commander seems to be a little mysterious, I am being stared at, and my hands and feet are inconvenient, so I ......"
"Don't worry, I will spare no effort to find out who this Dahua commander is!"
Nangong Jiuxiang immediately responded.
In his opinion, the second prince may have only wanted to find out the Dahua commander because Ling Heng threatened to kill Bai Yifan, so he wanted to find out the Dahua commander in order to check and balance.
But how could he have thought that Wu Zheng's current situation could only ask for help from outsiders.
And the person he let go at the beginning is the person he wants to see the most now.
Ling Heng's face suddenly flashed in his mind, but he only shook his head.
It shouldn't be him, although it's very similar, but the difference in their strength is too big. ’
