"Hahahaha," putting aside the doubts in his heart for the time being, Old Man Liao burst into laughter and said to Wan He: "Since the Marquis is willing to sit down and reason calmly, that's the best thing. The Marquis will sue Qi I have also heard a little bit about General Kudi Zhongqi, the chief of guards of the royal palace. At that time, General Kudi Zhongqi was ordered to hunt down the assassins, but to perform his duties. As for the idea of attacking Wanfu, I am afraid it was only General Kudi Zhongqi. It may be a misunderstanding with the Marquis,"
This old man Liao actually wanted to push this matter away with a misunderstanding. How could Wan He be willing? He narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Mr. Liao's statement is really interesting, but Mr. Liao was not there at the time." Many situations at the scene are still unclear. At that time, Ku Di Zhongqi led so many people to attack Wanfu. And if I remember correctly, I had already revealed my identity at that time, and Ku Di Zhongqi actually wanted to attack me. I’m afraid this is not a misunderstanding,”
Old Man Liao was naturally at the scene at the time, but he was sneaky and shady, so Wan He blocked the escape route first. Old Man Liao was also blocked for a while and was speechless. Although in terms of resourcefulness, Wan He is not as good as Old Man Liao, but when it comes to eloquence, Old Man Liao is not as eloquent as Wan He. However, Old Man Liao has been prepared for a long time. When Wan He said this, Old Man Liao did not comment or disagree. Frowning slightly, he said: "This is very different from what I heard before. If it is really as what the Marquis said, this will be difficult to handle. You don't know something, Marquis. This General Kudi Zhongqi is Qi Even if His Highness the King's favorite general makes a mistake, His Highness the King of Qi will forget about it, let alone hand him over to the Luoyang Prefecture's Yamen."
Old Man Liao's words sounded like he was being subdued, but Wan He understood clearly that there was no substance in these words at all. Old Man Liao said this, just to test Wan He by retreating. Wan He's true intention, the corner of Wan He's mouth curled up, but immediately turned into a sad expression, turned around and shouted to Su Kui who had just taken his seat: "Master Su, three days ago, my Wan Mansion was burned by a raging fire all night long. , that house was built with many years of hard work by my Wan family. What's more, my poor third uncle was also buried in a sea of fire. Now that my cousin has gone to Chang'an to take up a post, what face do you want me to see? Cousin, this prince has broken the law and is guilty of the same crime as the common people. The person who is committing the crime now is just a captain of the guard under His Royal Highness King Qi. Can’t Mr. Su also enforce the law impartially?"
Wan He's words kicked the ball to Su Kui's feet again. Looking at Wan He's actions, Old Man Liao frowned. Hearing his tone, he seemed to want to make trouble about this matter. Damn it, maybe Wan He is already confident enough and wants to have a fight with King Qi. Old Man Liao was planning in his heart, but he said to Wan He with a smile on his face: "Ah, Lord Marquis, Lord Marquis, don't be anxious, Don't be impatient. Well, I and His Highness the King of Qi are deeply sorry that the Wan family has suffered such a misfortune. I also ask for your condolences. Of course, His Highness the King of Qi does not mean to cover up General Kudi Zhongqi. It's just that , I hope to clarify the matter first, and then see if there is a solution,"
Check, how to check, both Wan He and Old Man Liao know the real cause of this matter, but neither Wan He nor King Qi wants this matter to come to the surface. Old Man Liao What he meant by saying this was that he naturally wanted to delay the matter further, but he was just planning on getting his own way, but Wan He didn't buy it anymore. Wan He immediately stood up and said two words Eyebrow shouted: "Solution, how to solve it, that's my uncle. Now everyone is dead. If we can't catch the murderer, how can we comfort my third uncle's spirit in heaven?"
Hearing what Wan He said, Old Man Liao sneered in his heart. The truth of the matter was actually as early as two days ago, before Wan He left for Chang'an, Old Man Liao had found out who really killed Master Wan San. , it was Wan Zha, and it happened before the fire broke out in Wan Mansion, and it had nothing to do with Ku Di Zhongqi, but Old Man Liao couldn't say this, and then Old Man Liao said with an apologetic smile: "That , Lord Marquis, please calm down, calm down, the deceased is dead, why not, Lord Marquis propose a proposal, and we will discuss it and see if we can come up with a solution that is good for everyone," Old Man Liao finally saw it. , Wan He pulled so much just because he wanted benefits, so old man Liao also pierced this layer of paper to see what Wan He asked for.
And just after Old Man Liao said this, Wan He, who had been standing there with a look of sorrow and anger, sat down again, crossed his legs, and said with a smile: "Well, it's not that it can't be discussed. , but this is not just a matter of a house, but a life of my Wan family. I just don’t know what kind of proposal Mr. Liao is willing to put forward to heal the Wan family’s losses."
Wan He's change made everyone unable to react for a while. Just now, he had a face full of grief and anger, shouting about blood debt, but now his face is full of philistine, almost like a treacherous businessman, businessman, yes, a businessman, Everyone suddenly remembered that Wan He was born into a family of merchants. It seemed that Wan He had learned the old trade of the Wan family well, and he was even able to trade his own uncle's life.
In fact, we can’t blame Wan He for being cold-blooded. After all, Wan He is not really the Wan He of this era. For Wan Sanye, Wan He simply doesn’t have that kind of blood relationship. What’s more, since Wan He arrived at this era, he was the first to come into contact with him. It was Wan Sanye and his son who framed him, so Wan He didn't care about Wan Sanye's life at all. This time he was just using this matter as an excuse.
It's just these reasons that others don't know. Seeing Wan He changing so quickly, Old Man Liao became wary secretly after he reacted. In his opinion, Wan He is indeed a difficult person to deal with because he has such a cold and decisive temperament. The opponent took a deep breath to keep himself calm, and then Old Man Liao asked: "Of course, it is more appropriate for the Marquis to propose this. As long as what the Marquis proposes is within the scope acceptable to His Highness Prince Qi, I believe King Qi will definitely agree,"
Old Man Liao also left a way out for himself. What if Wan He suddenly made a request for King Qi to withdraw from the struggle for the throne? Moreover, Old Man Liao set up another foreshadowing in the last sentence, and there was no To put it bluntly, according to the meaning of his words, Old Man Liao only "believed" that Yang Jian would agree. As for whether Yang Jian would agree to it, there are two opinions.
But just after Old Man Liao finished speaking, Wan He's eyes suddenly emitted a green light like a wolf staring at its prey. Even Old Man Liao couldn't help being startled, and then, Then Wan He laughed and said: "Hey, you said this, so I brought it up. Actually, thanks to the great blessings from the Holy One, with the current status of my Wan family, There is really nothing missing, but the house of our Wan family was burned down because of His Highness King Qi’s chief of bodyguards. If His Highness King Qi doesn’t have an explanation, then how can our Wan family gain a foothold in Dongdu in the future? ,"
Wan He Luoli said a lot, but he didn't say much in fact. This actually made old man Liao feel more uneasy. What if Wan He's request was simply unacceptable? For example, let's The King of Qi gave up part of his power in the court, for example, helping Wan He get promoted. These things were simply unacceptable to the King of Qi. If Wan He really made such a request, then Old Man Liao would have to fight for it. If you have to break up with Wan He, you won't agree.
Su Kui, who was sitting above him, was staring nervously at Wan He, expecting the request from Wan He. Now Su Kui was extremely conflicted in his heart. After this incident, the relationship between him and King Qi The relationship between them was already very bad. If King Qi ascended the throne in the future, Su Kui would naturally be unlucky as well. Therefore, Su Kui hoped that Wan He could make some meaningful requests, which would further weaken King Qi's power. To expand the strength of the King of Yue, Su Kui also did not want the Luoyang government office under his jurisdiction to become a battlefield between the two parties. In that case, no matter who wins or loses, Su Kui will not get the good fruit, so Su Kui is eager to Wan He can calm down the matter, so that both parties can resolve the matter peacefully, and he does not need to get into trouble.
In this way, everyone's eyes were focused on Wan He. They listened to Wan He talking a lot of nonsense. Then Wan He paused again, glanced around everyone present, and raised his mouth. Qiao smiled and said: "Actually, I have admired His Highness King Qi for a long time. If this incident had not happened, I would not have had any unpleasantness with His Highness King Qi. But as Mr. Liao said, since it happened, then It should be resolved properly, Xiaowu,"
Halfway through the words, Wan He suddenly stopped and waved his hand behind him. Zhu Muwu immediately took out an exquisite scroll from his arms and went straight forward to deliver it to Old Man Liao. Old Man Liao looked puzzled. He glanced at Wan He, took the scroll, and opened it directly. He saw a large series of numbers written on the scroll, so densely packed that Old Man Liao's eyes were a little dazzled. At the same time, Wan He's voice It was also passed on: "Everything is as listed in the scroll. There are a total of twenty-one large and small courtyards in Wanfu Mansion. Among them are various exotic flowers and rare plants, precious furniture, plus the death compensation of my third uncle, a total of ten Ten thousand taels of gold, I just don’t know whether His Highness King Qi plans to pay it all in one lump sum, or pay it in installments, but I need to make it clear first. The installment payment depends on the down payment and the installment amount, and the interest will vary. Please ask His Highness King Qi. It’s better to make it clear first,”
