When Li Ye came to his mother's room, Pei Sanniang pointed to the table and said, "Sit down first!"
Li Ye sat down, and Pei Sanniang sighed: "I also agree to move. I actually want you to go to school, but that old bastard in Yonghefang can't teach."
"Mom, I have signed a one-year agreement with the King Ning Polo Team to play for him for a year."
Pei Sanniang's eyes lit up, Ning Wang Polo Team! She immediately forgot about her son's study, "How much does he give you a month?"
"Not on a monthly basis, but on a per-game basis. Regardless of whether I win or lose, I will be given 500 yuan for each game. I will play ten games for him in total."
Pei Sanniang was a little stunned. Five hundred guan per game and ten games, wouldn't that be 5,000 guan?
She swallowed, tapped the table with her fingers and said: "You can't talk about it verbally, you have to write it down in black and white, and you can't settle the accounts at the end of the year. You have to pay every game. These powerful people can't be trusted!"
"Mom, there is a written agreement!"
Li Ye took out the agreement from his arms and handed it to his mother. Pei Sanniang quickly took it and looked at it carefully. Finally, she curled her lips and said, "The word "伱" is so smelly that it crawls like an earthworm. Who is this Leng Yue?"
"He is Prince Ning's chief aide. He can fully represent Prince Ning."
"This agreement is okay, there is nothing deceptive about it, but did he really promise to give 500 guan per game? You heard that right! Isn't it a total of 500 guan?"
"mother--"
Pei Sanniang waved her hand and said, "I understand. He won 20,000 guan today. He doesn't care about the 5,000 guan. In that case, we will move to a place closer to where you play."
"Mom, I want to move outside the west city. My uncle said it's best for me to practice martial arts in Fengshui River."
Pei Sanniang sighed and said: "You can move anywhere, but I still want you to study. It's best to study and play ball at the same time. When you were a child, I didn't let you study hard. Mom delayed you!"
……….
In Prince Ning's Mansion, Leng Yue reported to Li Lin the status of today's negotiations with Li Ye.
"He finally agreed!"
Li Lin struck with her fist and laughed happily.
"He almost agreed straight away. He felt like he was under his position. He also wanted to use the prince's protection to avoid the Yang family's threat to him."
Li Lin nodded, "This child is very mature. He has a mind that is more than fourteen years old. He looks like an adult."
"I also feel like this when I am in a humble position. Every word he speaks is carefully thought out. Unfortunately, he is from a poor family. If he is from a noble family, his future is limitless."
Li Lin read the contract, put it away carefully, and asked, "What other demands did he make?"
"He made two requests, both of which were related to the Yang family. First, he asked a humble official to help him get a horse. He made a bet with Yang Hui on whether he could show up. He won Yang Hui's horse. There was a bet written in black and white.
, but it’s a small matter.”
"Then what?"
"Then he was worried that the Yang family would retaliate against him. He was worried that his family would be implicated, and he hoped that we could provide protection!"
Li Lin shook her head, "He is overly worried. The Yang family is not a bully in Chang'an. They are also respectable people. The loss of reputation caused by revenge against a poor boy like him will not be worth the loss."
"But that Yang Hui poisoned his horse to death last night. I also feel that there is a possibility that a scoundrel like Yang Hui will not let it go."
"Then what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to ask Wang Xuanhai to take action, teach Yang Hui a lesson, and warn him not to mess around!"
Li Lin thought for a moment and said: "Enough is enough and don't go too far. After all, he is a member of the Yang family. Li Linfu hopes that the conflict between me and the Yang family will escalate. I don't want to get involved in the struggle between him and Yang Zhongguo."
"I understand the humble position!"
Li Lin took a few steps with her hands behind her hands, and then said, "If I go to visit Yang Guozhong and hint at my neutral attitude, sir, do you think it's feasible?"
Leng Yue shook her head, "If Li Linfu finds out that the prince went to visit Yang Guozhong, he will definitely cause trouble. I suggest that it is better to be cautious. The Yang family will not understand Li Linfu's intentions."
"Sir, you are right, sometimes a word without saying a word is worth a thousand words!"
……….
Although Yang Hui was very reluctant to give up his horse, he had no choice. The other party was from Prince Si Ning's Palace. He might not be afraid of Li Ye, but he couldn't afford to offend the people from Prince Si Ning's Palace. He only dared to curse Prince Si Ning.
, if he really made King Si Ning angry, his father would not be able to protect him.
More importantly, credibility is very important when living in Chang'an. If the news of his cheating spreads, it will be difficult for him to survive in Chang'an in the future.
He had no choice but to take the horse out and hand it over to Leng Yue.
Leng Yue took a few of his men and led the horses away.
The more Yang Hui thought about it, the more angry and worried he became. Today the Yang family lost to King Si Ning, and he couldn't explain it to the Yang family!
At this time, he saw an ox cart parked on the side of the road and quickly got into the driveway: "Go to Xuanyangfang!"
He had to go to his uncle Yang Guozhong to explain that he had tried his best, but that young man exceeded everyone's expectations.
As soon as he got on the bullock cart, a cloth bag suddenly covered his head, and before he could react, he was punched and knocked unconscious.
When Yang Hui woke up, he found that he was tied to a wooden stake behind his back, with eight extremely sturdy men standing on both sides. There was a middle-aged man with cold eyes sitting on the chair in front of him.
"Ah! Wang Xuanhai."
Yang Hui immediately recognized this middle-aged man and trembled with fright.
This Wang Xuanhai is the cousin of Wang Yuanbao, the richest man in the Tang Dynasty. He is a famous ruthless man in Chang'an City. If there was a gang in the Tang Dynasty, then this Wang Xuanhai would be the boss of the gang in Chang'an.
All the rogues and rogues in Chang'an are afraid of him, but no one knows how much he hates him.
In the third year of Tianbao, Wang Jian, the owner of the largest martial arts gym in Chang'an, ridiculed Wang Yuanbao for being a nouveau riche. That night, Wang Xuanhai visited Wang Jian. The next day, Wang Jian closed the martial arts gym and fled with his family.
Out of Chang'an City.
This incident caused a sensation. Many people were speculating about what Wang Xuanhai said to Wang Jian to scare him like that. When friends asked, Wang Xuanhai always smiled and did not answer.
Often the fear of the unknown is the real fear. It is precisely because they cannot see through Wang Xuanhai's methods that everyone is afraid of him.
Wang Xuanhai stepped forward and said slowly: "You have two sons. The eldest son, Yang Shuan, is nine years old this year. He has a big black scar on his buttocks. He studies at Chang'an Kaiming School. He leaves for the school at chen o'clock every morning and picks him up in the afternoon.
Your second son is called Yang Ji. He is seven years old and broke his leg two years ago. As a result, one of his legs is longer and the other is shorter. He plans to study this summer, also in Kaiming Academy. If your two sons suddenly disappear, but I
If you refuse to admit that I did it, what should you do?"
Yang Hui was so frightened that he was sweating profusely. His biggest weakness was his two sons. He begged: "Third Master, where did I offend you? Please tell me clearly. I will definitely apologize to you."
"You didn't offend me, but you poisoned a horse to death last night. I like horses very much and hate people hurting horses the most. So, I want to use one of your sons to kill the horse. You said Yang Shuan
Is it suitable, or is Yang Ji suitable?"
Yang Hui immediately understood that this was Wang Xuanhai standing up for Li Ye. Of course it couldn't be Li Ye, it must be King Si Ning.
He was so frightened that he begged: "Third Master, I made a mistake, I promise not to do it again!"
“What happens if we do it again?”
"This villain would never dare to risk his son's life!"
"I accept this guarantee. If you do it again, prepare coffins for your two sons!"
Wang Xuanhai waved his hand, and a cloth bag was placed over his head. Then, Yang Hui was knocked unconscious with another punch.
"Wherever you come from, you will be sent back to where you came from!"
Why did Wang Xuanhai dare to deal with Yang Hui? First of all, the Wang family was the richest man in the Tang Dynasty and the biggest local gangster in Chang'an.
Even the emperor Li Longji wanted to give face to the Wang family.
Secondly, the Ning Wang faction supported the Wang family from behind.
On the other hand, Yang Hui himself was relatively weak. He had no official position. As a concubine, he was not valued by his father. If he were valued, he would have been given an official position long ago.
Finally, another important reason is the mismatch between benefits and costs.
Even if the Yang family relied on their power to destroy the Wang family, they would still have to pay a heavy price. The Wang family would kill the descendants of the Yang family.
Just like you trample a large group of ants to death, but you break a leg for it, it is definitely not worth it.
Therefore, Yang Hui, who was born as a gangster, understood this truth. Even if the Yang family supported him in killing Wang Xuanhai, but his son was gone, he knew very well what was more serious or less serious.
