When Elder Baihu heard the voice, his body trembled, and he lost his voice and said, "Little... Little Marquis?" Behind him was Qi Ning.
Qi Ning saw Bai Hu and Lu Shanghe working together outside the window. They were both insidious and despicable people. He knew that Xiang Baiying fell into the hands of these two people today. If he didn't rescue him, there would be no way he would be spared.
But he also understood that Lu Shanghe was well-known, Elder Baihu also had a very high status in the Beggar Clan, and the skills of these two people were not weak. In addition, this was the headquarters of Kuimulang Branch. Since Elder Baihu dared to If he attacks Baiying so unscrupulously, then this place is naturally completely under his control.
Either he doesn't take action, but once he takes action, he must hit it with one blow, otherwise he will be in a desperate situation.
What Lu Shanghe and Elder Baihu planned was a shameful thing. Once he fell into the hands of these two people, even if he had the identity of Jin Yihou, he would not be able to survive.
Before he took action, he knew that even if he succeeded in a sudden attack, he could only control one person at most.
Among the two people, he could only choose one as his target. After thinking about it in his mind, he finally decided to target Elder Baihu. He was now very powerful and could reach the rooftop without making a sound.
Although Lu Shanghe and Elder Baihu were both vigilant people, they naturally relaxed their vigilance so late at night and in Kuimulang's lair. Moreover, they plotted against Xiang Baiying, and their treacherous plan succeeded. It was a success. Although there was His attention was all on Xiang Baiying, so he never expected that someone would suddenly attack him.
Elder Baihu was stared at the back of the head by the cold blade, and the cold air from the cold blade seemed to soak into his skin.
"Little Marquis, what are you doing?" Lu Shanghe had already stood beside Xiang Baiying at this time, with the five fingers of his right hand clasped on Xiang Baiying's head, like an eagle's claws, with a faint smile on his face: "You Didn’t you go to Chengdu? Why bother to come back and wade through this muddy water?"
The moment Qi Ning fell from the sky, Lu Shanghe didn't care who it was, he immediately wanted to control Xiang Baiying.
He knew very well that someone came in at this time just for the sake of Xiang Baiying. As long as he had Xiang Baiying firmly under his control, he could handle whatever tricks the other party wanted to play.
Qi Ning said calmly: "Master Lu, I never knew what it meant to shamelessly repay kindness with hatred. Today, when I see you, I understand that you are the best answer to this sentence."
"You're rewarded, little Marquis!" Lu Shanghe smiled faintly, "But I can't figure it out. You've obviously gone to Chengdu Mansion, why did you go and come back?"
"I have to ask this elder Baihu." Qining sneered: "I was indeed ready to go to Chengdu, but before leaving, Elder Baihu said something that made me feel a little weird."
Elder Baihu was startled and asked, "What?"
"When you were leaving, you swore that the Beggar Gang would not let go of the people you wanted to help even if they fled to the ends of the earth." Qining said, "I didn't react at first, but halfway through, But it suddenly occurred to me that Gang Leader Xiang and I had not mentioned anything about the situation when we were assassinated, so how did you know that we encountered a group of assassins?"
Elder Baihu was startled, and Qining said slowly: "How did you know that it wasn't an extremely powerful opponent fighting against Gang Leader Xiang alone? Why was it so sure that it would be a group of assassins?"
Lu Shanghe sighed: "Elder Baihu, our young prince is much smarter than you think. You just said one more word in front of him, but he saw your flaw."
"If it's just one sentence, I may not be so sure." Qining said: "But Elder Baihu claimed that hundreds of Beggar Clan disciples were added to Xinping Town overnight, but I couldn't detect the slightest clue, and the town The Beggar Clan disciples here are not on strict alert at all, which makes people suspicious."
Lu Shanghe said with a smile: "You have wronged Elder Baihu. In fact, before you arrived at Xinping Town, Elder Baihu did mobilize some close disciples to come to Xinping Town, but the number was not as large as you thought."
Qi Ning said: "So you expected that the leader of the Directional Gang would definitely rush to Xinping Town, and you had laid a trap here beforehand."
"Little Marquis, to be honest, Mr. Lu and Elder Baihu have never thought of becoming your enemy." Lu Shanghe sighed: "You are from the imperial court, and we are from the Jianghu. We should be in harmony with each other. . The changing situation in the world is not something that you, the young Marquis, can understand. I would like to give you some good advice from Mr. Lu, it would be better for you not to interfere in this matter."
"oh?"
"Little Marquis, in fact, what happened in the court is enough for your Jinyi Qi family to drink a pot." Lu Shanghe stared at Qi Ning with a calm expression: "But you want to make enemies with Jianghu, which is really not good for the Jinyi Qi family. ." He glanced down at Xiang Baiying who was sitting on the ground, and said with a smile: "Do you think Xiang Baiying really values love and righteousness? Back then, he could even give up his favorite woman to others, and it seemed that he valued brotherhood. Righteous, but if you think about it carefully, how could it be that you are unkind and unjust?"
Elder Baihu also said: "Little Marquis, what Villa Master Lu said is absolutely true. We don't want to be your enemy. You are in Yinghe Villa. In order to avoid the storm for you, Villa Master Lu kindly planned to let you leave. Now that you have arrived, Xinping Town, I also send you off respectfully, we have no grudges, there is really no need for you to embarrass us."
Qi Ning sighed: "Maybe you don't understand my temperament. I am used to doing whatever I want, and I like to get involved in things that I don't like. Compared to you, I appreciate the temperament of the leader Xiang more, so this time, I Since we are involved, we can only deal with it to the end."
Lu Shanghe smiled and said, "How are you going to take care of it, little Marquis?"
"Master Lu, you are right. We have no direct enmity, so there is no need to fight to the death." Qining said with a smile: "I went and came back, I just wanted to take him to the gang leader, and now I have something in my hand. Elder Baihu, I won’t let you suffer, how about we trade people for people?”
Lu Shanghe shook his head and said: "Little Marquis, you know this is absolutely impossible. If Xiang Baiying leaves today, and if he makes a comeback, do you think Lu will still be alive? Your conditions may cost Lu's life." He said earnestly: "Little Marquis, I know your martial arts are very good, but there are many of our masters just outside. You have to admit that if we don't want you to go, you won't survive."
Qi Ning nodded and said: "You planned carefully, I believe this."
Lu Shanghe said with a smile: "So Lu thinks that the price you negotiate is not high, so the asking price should not be too high. Xiang Baiying will definitely not be able to leave, but the young marquis can leave safely. As long as the young marquis agrees, tonight You have never heard of what happened, and you have never seen it. Lu immediately sent the young marquis away respectfully, and also offered generous gifts."
"A generous gift?"
"Lu has accumulated some wealth over the years." Lu Shanghe said with a smile: "Although it is not as good as the Donghai Jiang family, he does have some gold and silver treasures in his hands. As long as the young marquis agrees, Lu can give away a gift worth five hundred thousand taels. I wonder what the young marquis thinks of the gold and silver property?"
Qi Ning smiled and said: "Zhuang Master Lu is really generous in his actions."
"Little Marquis, although Lu lives in Xichuan, he is not ignorant of things in the capital." Lu Shanghe said with a smile: "The four hereditary marquises of Chu are the Zhongyi Marquis, the Jindao Marquis, the Jinyi Marquis and the Wuxiang Marquis. , the one with the most financial constraints among them is your Jinyi Marquis Mansion." He raised his other hand, touched his beard, and said with a smile: "Jinyi Marquis Mansion has always advertised itself as clean and honest, and its income is less than that of other marquises. It's a lot, but the expenses are quite a lot. It is said that something happened in the Jinyihou Mansion a while ago, and the money on hand is stretched thin. Young Master, five hundred thousand taels of silver is equivalent to the income of your Jinyihou Mansion for many years, and Lu I can also guarantee that from now on, Lu will be able to offer generous gifts to the Jinyihou Mansion every year, ensuring that your Jinyihou Mansion will not be short of money. All I ask for is that the young Marquis can treat Lu as a friend."
Qi Ning laughed and said, "Zhuang Master Lu's conditions seem very tempting."
"Xiang Baiying is just a useless person now." Elder Baihu lost no time in saying: "Why should the young marquis lose such favorable conditions for a useless person? Little Marquis, once Xiang Baiying dies, I can lead the Beggar Clan. You promise that from now on, the Beggar Gang will do its best to help the Jinyihou Mansion, and whatever the Jinyi Houfu orders, the Beggar Gang will do its best."
"Master Lu has a lot of gold and silver. Once Elder Baihu really becomes the leader of the gang, he will have hundreds of thousands of gang members under his command." Qining sighed: "If I can become friends with the two of them, compared to the Jinyi Hou Mansion, it will be With added power, his position in the government will become more important."
Elder Baihu only thought that Qining agreed and said with a smile: "Young Master is wise!"
"But if I agree to your conditions, will I become the same person?" Qi Ning said: "Shameless, sinister and despicable, unscrupulous, no different from a pig or a dog?"
Lu Shanghe and Elder Baihu originally thought that the young man might not agree to such a generous offer, but when they heard this, their expressions changed.
Lu Shanghe lowered his face slightly and sneered: "It seems that the young marquis doesn't want to be friends with us anymore?"
"Master Lu, you just said that the price I negotiated is too low. I disagree." Qining smiled and said: "I have Elder Baihu in my hands, and this Xinping Town is the territory of the Beggar Clan. You said that the price in my hands is too low." The price is too low, is it because you don’t care about Elder Baihu’s life at all, or is it because Elder Baihu can’t control the people under him?”
Lu Shanghe frowned, and Elder Baihu also frowned.
"Elder Baihu, I will not negotiate with Master Lu next." Qining said: "Your life is in my hands. Whether you live or die, it is up to you to decide." The dagger was slightly straightened forward. The blade cut iron like mud and pierced the flesh, and blood spilled out, "Come, ask Master Lu, does he want Gang Leader Xiang's life or your life? You are friends, we can discuss anything. Don’t start a fight.”
