Shi Tengshan looked at the appearance of Master Xue and Cishi in front of him. He bowed his head and leaned against Cao Chengzai, who was sitting next to him, and whispered, "Master Cao, look..."
Shi Tengshan had just spoken, but Cao Chengzai’s old eyes flicked slightly with a cold air, which was completely different from the sickly body before, and a low voice came from Cao Chengzai’s throat. Popped out: "Don't worry, we just need to wait and see the changes."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Chengzai's eyes closed again, and in a blink of an eye he changed back to the old-fashioned appearance. If it hadn't been for Shi Tengshan who had just heard it really, he would really not believe the change in his talents. At this time, Shi Tengshan suddenly reacted. If he probed closely, isn't the situation now caused by the seemingly incoherent remarks made by Cao Chengzai just now
Somewhat surprised he glanced at Cao Chengzai, but soon Shi Tengshan came back, turned his head quickly, and looked down at the low table in front of him. Although he doesn't know what Cao Chengzai's intentions are, he can't reveal Cao Chengzai's intentions. It's just that Shi Tengshan's eyes were also shining with cold light, and he said inwardly: "Chairman. And it will make you proud. One day, I will let you know how good I am."
Just when the officials of the Guiyang Army had their own thoughts, the Linjiang Army was carrying out another ulterior conspiracy.
As some aristocratic families of the Linjiang Army, they gathered in the chamber of the Zhang family. Of course, this kind of gathering can only be held in secret. Otherwise, the new Linjiang Army defender Pang Zheng in the Linjiang Army Chief’s Mansion , Then I won't take a break with them.
Although it was broad daylight, the doors of the hall were tightly closed, and there were only five people sitting in the huge hall. The middle-aged man sitting at the top was Zhang Wenhua, Ling Kang and Zhang Cheng, the sons of the leader of Ling Shan. These people are the young masters of the local official family. Although they are not very old, they have been reused in the family and will definitely become the powers of the major families in the future. From this we can see how sincere you are to this meeting.
However, in the hall, these few people who can be regarded as pivotal in the local area are silent. The whole hall is silent and the atmosphere is depressing.
After a long time, Ling Kang, who represented the leader of Lingshan, sighed and said to everyone: "Everyone, since Cui Hu and Pang Zheng took charge of Linjiang Army City and the surrounding areas of Linjiang Army, the forces of our four great families are One day is not as good as one day. If these two reckless men are allowed to continue their mischief, I am afraid that all the tens of thousands of lives in our four great families will be killed by the sword."
When Ling Kang opened this head, Zhang Cheng also sighed, and said: "What the brothers said is extremely true, especially in the Linjiang Army. The Pangzheng Barbarian has no reason at all. Since he has served as a general in the Linjiang Army, Since then, my family’s 18 shops in the Linjiang Army have been sealed up for no reason, as well as nearly two thousand acres of fertile land outside the city. Originally, we wanted to use people in officialdom to argue with him, but all those who spoke were He was arrested unreasonably. It was really a talented person who met soldiers, and it was unreasonable. Especially this Pang Zheng was also ruthless. A cousin of mine, who is also a dignified Linjiang army commander, is just outrageous. His methods were very ruthless, and he scolded him a few words. The next day, Pang Zheng said that my cousin had colluded with the Shanyue barbarians and put all my cousins and family in prison and confiscated all his family wealth." Zhang Chengkou Lieutenant General Napang Being called a barbarian, it can be seen how much he resents Pang Zheng.
And Zhang Wenhua, who was very calm and wise in front of Zhang Ling, was crying with a face at this moment, and began to complain: "The Pang Zheng you are waiting for is arrogant, but he has no brains. It's good to be fooled. Zhao Yan arranged for it. The leader of Linjiang Military City, Cui Hu, was very cunning. Just less than half a month after he took office, he pulled out all the dark nails that my governor Zhang Ling and Ling Shan had placed in the chief mansion. As a result, Cui Hu every day. We don’t know exactly what we are doing. And that Cui Hu made a surprise attack every three to five. We have few dozens of shops and tens of thousands of acres of fertile land in Linjiang Military City. Relying on the income from other places to support daily expenses, but this will not be supported for long."
Regarding Zhang Wenhua's words, Ling Kang, who is also in Linjiang Military City, also nodded again and again. He looked very sad in my heart, and it seemed that the leader of Ling Shan was not much better. At this time, the three of them seemed to have heard the news suddenly, you and I began to talk about the misery of your family one after another.
The younger brothers of the governor Zhang Ling and Ling Shan are not simple figures. They only talk about their own sufferings, but in fact they want others to be the best. Saying that your family is no longer good means that your family can no longer be the first bird, and whoever is strong will pick the head!
"Master!" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the door, but it was the servant of the Zhang family who shouted outside the closed door.
As soon as he heard this voice, Zhang Cheng could finally find a chance to speak, and hurriedly shouted: "What's the matter? Haven't I explained it? We are here to discuss business matters, and no one is allowed to disturb."
The servant was frightened by Wei Teng's drink like this, and hurriedly replied: "Master, it is not the petty who disobeyed the order, but someone outside the door, saying that he must meet you in person. The youngest came here. Report to the master."
"Naughty." Zhang Cheng seized the opportunity to vent all the depression in his heart, and shouted loudly: "If you come here, you dare to disturb our discussion? Are you impatient with your life? Why don't you take that bastard? If you blast me out, how can I wait for someone to say that I can see it."
The servant outside the door was almost crying. He knew very well in his heart that if he couldn’t give the Young Patriarch a satisfactory explanation, even if he ran out now to cut the visitor off, he would eventually It is also inevitable.
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, the servant hurriedly took out something from his arms and said to the closed door: "Yes, master. The man handed it to the small thing, saying that he was giving this thing. Show it to you and some of your distinguished guests, you will definitely see him."
At this time, Zhang Cheng saw that the servant had a jade pendant on his hand. The words "Pingxiang Shanzhai Liu Guang" were written on the jade pendant.
When Zhang Cheng and everyone looked at it, they immediately knew that Liu Guang had sent someone to unite with them. After a few people discussed it, they invited someone in.
What came in was a handsome, white-faced young man with a uniform body, but after the young man came in, he did not see everyone's eyes, with a smile on his face, and bowed his hand to Zhang Cheng who was sitting on the top. Said: "Xiao pays homage to Master Zhang."
This young man is so ignorant of etiquette, Zhang Cheng’s first impression of him is almost to the extreme. If it weren’t for the fact that the young man’s master is the leader of Liu Guang, I’m afraid Zhang Cheng would have let him be blown away. out. Holding back his anger, he hummed: "Are you an envoy sent by Chief Liu?"
Leader Liu Guang has already occupied a part of the world. Zhang Cheng and others are aware of this news. That's why Zhang Cheng respects Liu Guang's men so much. And the young man also smiled and nodded and said: "Xiao did come to visit the adults on the order of my adult. Originally, Xiao would also go to meet other seniors, but since the representatives of the major families are here, It saves Xiao’s troubles.” After speaking, the young man glanced at Zhang Wenhua and others sitting on both sides, as if he had recognized their identities.
What the young man said, Zhang Cheng and the others were not very surprised. After all, the other party was the brave Liu Guang. If he didn't even have this ability, he wouldn't have made Liu Guang so uneasy at the beginning. Immediately Zhang Cheng nodded and said, "I wonder if Chief Liu Guang sent your Excellency here? Isn't it afraid that the Linjiang Army leader will hold Your Excellency General Hua?"
"Haha." The young man laughed a few times, and said with a strange face: "Master Zhang's words made Xiao some not understand. Liu Guangnai is a general of the same Great Chu country, and so is the Linjiang army. It belongs to the territory of the Great Chu Kingdom. Xiao Mou was entrusted by the leader of Liu Guang to come to Lin Jiang Army. It is reasonable and reasonable. Why should I be afraid of Pangzheng?"
"Uh." The other party's words not only left Zhang Cheng and others speechless, but also caused some embarrassment in everyone's hearts. Liu Guang is indeed subordinate to Chu State, but for so many years, Liu Guang has long been out of Chu State's control. Now that the other party said so, this made everyone react. The Linjiang Army was also under the control of the Chu State, and the leader of the Linjiang Army was naturally returned to the Chu State.
Seeing the embarrassment of the people, the young man still smiled and said to Zhang Cheng: "I can't think of the first family of Liu Guang, who doesn't even have the courtesy of hospitality. Xiao does not expect to be able to drink a cup of tea. , Xiao Mou came from a long way, these legs are really lacking, but if I ask for a seat, I wonder if Master Zhang can allow Xiao Mou's request?"
