Yu Rujing's explanation barely made sense at first glance, but combined with the fact that he tried to press the treasure before, and the actual kidnapping of Peng Qiang and the others, there were many mistakes and omissions.
Peng Qiang snorted coldly in his nostrils, regained his official prestige, and shook his brocade robes. He didn't mention the embarrassment just now, and he didn't want to openly make things worse. The girl is our guest, and we were careful to protect her when she was hunted down before. Chief Yu, since it was a misunderstanding, can we leave now?"
Yu Rujing said with a nonchalant smile: "Of course, of course, you can leave now. You don't know each other. If you offend me today, please bear with me. If you need anything in the future, go to the nearest pier Find someone from our Long Whale Gang."
Peng Qiang said perfunctorily, "You're welcome."
Yu Rujing took the coolies under his command and walked away swaggeringly.
After the members of the Long Whale Gang left, Lin Wu suddenly held her stomach and cried: "Master Peng, Liu Shaoxia, save me, the members of the Long Whale Gang may have poisoned me, my stomach hurts..."
When Lin Wu made a fuss, Peng Qiang also felt a dull pain in his lower abdomen, recalling what little trick Yu Rujing had done before letting them go.He hurriedly checked his skills and found that he was poisoned.The Long Whale Gang, which is well-known in the righteous way, has never heard of them using poison in such a dirty way.It's really careless.
Peng Qiang's subordinates checked themselves one after another, but fortunately they were not uncomfortable.It seems that the person who poisoned him should be Yu Rujing or the martial arts expert next to him.Recalling the words Yu Rujing said when he left, it is really worth thinking about.
"Where is the nearest branch of the Long Whale Gang?" Peng Qiang asked. It was captured because they poisoned us, probably for the old makeup box. The thing is for the royal family, and they are playing tricks because they can’t grab it. Don’t you Wulin League restrain the people in the Jianghu and let them do evil? Is it?"
If Peng Qiang is asking for good words, Liu Guanqing may be able to take advantage of the situation to help, and use his father's face to negotiate with the leader of the Changjing Gang.But Peng Qiang didn't care about the people in the Jianghu, and the high-ranking people said that they were obviously begging for help, and they also reprimanded and complained.
Liu Guanqing is not a clay figurine, so she naturally heard the anger in her heart, and said perfunctorily, "Master Peng is right, but it may not be because of the poisoning of the gang leader, right? As far as I know, the Long Whale Gang has a good reputation along the river. Will you Did you provoke other people in the county before?"
Peng Qiang's complexion was even uglier, the discomfort caused by the poisonous hair is certainly there, and it is even more resentful to be elbowed by the gangsters one after another.He could tell that Liu Guanqing was not a quack boy who didn't know anything and could only wield swords.He is not as good as Enwei and Shi Xiaoyi, and then throws out a sweetie: "I'm afraid Liu Shaoxia doesn't know who the master behind the Long Whale Gang is?"
"They have developed rapidly in recent years, and there are indeed people who support them. But what does this have to do with us Jianghu people?" Liu Guanqing pretended to be stupid.
"Behind them is Prince Rui. Prince Rui is the youngest brother of the Holy Majesty, and his mother's family is Heluo Feng's family that is not weaker than Peng's." Peng Qiang was afraid that Liu Guanqing would not understand, so he patiently explained the relationship in a simple way. Then he said, "The Holy Majesty is fair. Although the descendants are not as high-profile as before, they are still the head of the relatives. You escorted me back to Beijing safely. Not only will the Peng family be grateful, but the Holy Majesty will also be commended. But if something happens It's not right, it will inevitably hurt the reputation of Leader Liu."
Liu Guanqing said in her heart that he didn't originally want to help Peng Qiang, but just to fulfill his promise to take care of Lin Wu.Now he was dragged onto the boat of the descendants by Peng Qiang, this "heavy responsibility" he couldn't bear.But if the face is torn apart on the spot, wouldn't all the previous forbearance and relationship maintenance be in vain?Could it be that he really agreed to Peng Qiang and negotiated with the members of the Long Whale Gang?
If the Long Whale Gang were just a group of rabble with mediocre martial arts, Liu Guanqing would not be afraid, as long as they can't use fists to speak logically.However, the martial arts of the few people headed by Yu Rujing just now are not weak, and Liu Guanqing herself does not have much chance of winning.
Moreover, they have no basis to accuse the members of the Long Whale Gang of poisoning. As long as they insist on not admitting to the poisoning, it will not be easy for the Wulin League to bring it out.To put it bluntly, the leader of the martial arts is an honorary title. When there is a dispute between the Jianghu gangs, he will come forward to be a peacemaker. If he can raise his arms and call everyone to obey and follow, the emperor on the throne will have changed long ago.
Xie Wuyao saw Liu Guanqing's embarrassment, and took the initiative to express his opinion: "Brother Liu, I happen to have something that the leader of the Changjing Sect asked for, or I can negotiate with them. There is a way."
"I'm sorry, you two young heroes. Do you need help?" Peng Qiang still had doubts about Xie Wuyao's origin from the bottom of his heart. His tone subconsciously softened.Of course, the implied meaning of the words will not be ambiguous by sending people to follow and monitor.
Liu Guanqing shook her head and thanked Peng Qiang for his "kindness", people definitely wouldn't take it.He guessed that Xie Wuyao must have other methods, and the two tacitly pretended to chase in the direction Yu Rujing and the others left. In fact, after running far away, they threw off Peng Qiang's men who were trailing behind. Discuss future plans.
"No medicine, what can you do? Are we really going to find someone from the Long Whale Gang? Just now Peng Qiang said that Prince Rui is behind the Long Whale Gang. So, is it Prince Rui who is looking for trouble for the descendant Peng? ?” Liu Guanqing had vaguely grasped the crux of the matter.
Xie Wuyao felt that since Liu Guanqing had already realized this level, if he followed the trend to guide him, with Liu Guanqing's intelligence, he might be able to guess it.It is easier to believe what you deduce yourself than what others force you to instill.
So he said sternly: "Prince Rui's fiefdom is rich and prosperous, and the current sage is quite lenient to this only surviving young brother. In Prince Rui's fiefdom, there is its own small imperial court, which has more power than ordinary state capitals or frontier guards. It is big, and the taxes are not forced to be handed over to the treasury. Even so, Prince Rui is still not satisfied."
"Could it be that Prince Rui wants...but the Holy One has a son." Liu Guanqing instantly found the point of contradiction, her complexion changed slightly, and her voice was lowered, "That's why Prince Rui is staring at the Peng family. Could it be that they suspect what the Empress is saying?" The born prince...isn't the royal family Zhengshuo?"
"There was a county head of Jing County in the Peng family. It is said that he was born in the palace on the same year, month, and day as the prince. The murdered Peng Li was the mother of the county head of Jing County. The old makeup box showed that Peng Li came from the palace. I got a reward, but there is a piece of yellow silk with some words written on it, isn't it suspicious?" Xie Wuyao enlightened.
"Oh my god, a few years ago, a folk storyteller had a new storybook about the civet cat being exchanged for the crown prince. I thought it was just a rumor, but now I have to be more skeptical."
"The appearance of the storybook is to allow this story to spread among the people for a longer time and to be more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Those stories were first spread along the river, and the members of the Long Whale Gang talked about it the most." Xie Wuyao said in a solemn tone. .
Liu Guanqing suddenly came to her senses: "Could it be that Prince Rui deliberately let people spread this script? This is all to attack the identity of the first prince. It seems that they are targeting the descendant Peng family, but they are actually aiming at the supreme position? No. Ah, even if the first prince was dropped, the Holy Majesty has other biological sons. So many princes can't be all fake."
"I don't want to argue about the authenticity of the first prince. But the late emperor had many heirs, who are considered older today, and the rest of the younger brothers have died after taking the throne today. Only Prince Rui, because of the protection of Feng's mother clan, I went to the fief early in the morning to grow up safely." Xie Wuyao no longer concealed, and said in a deep voice, "The royal family has no family. Brothers and sisters, when they get in the way, they must be dealt with as usual."
"Wuyao, what do you think the truth is? Don't you know how to count it? Why don't you count it and tell them whether the first prince is true or not?" Liu Guanqing asked this sentence, then shook her head dejectedly, "I'm sure there is nothing wrong with this matter." It’s so simple to think. Even if you know the truth, it’s not easy for others to believe it.”
Xie Wuyao nodded gratified, Liu Guanqing really knows a little bit, and she can put herself in the place and think a little longer.He couldn't help continuing: "Yes, sometimes the truth is not important, the key is what the Sacred Heart thinks, and it is a bigger plan to have a son. As far as I know, the Holy One is a person who makes great decisions and should be abandoned. Sometimes even husband and wife, brothers or sons can be merciless. Don't look at the natal families behind the Empress Peng, Empress Dowager Peng, and Concubine Feng fighting in secret, these women are still peaceful in the harem, look Obediently acting in the eyes of the Holy Majesty, not daring to make mistakes and ruin his future. The Holy Majesty is in his prime, and he wants to have more children, more women, and even replace the queen, it is not impossible."
"So, it's not a coincidence that you accompanied me to secretly protect the Peng family's treasure to enter the capital smoothly?" Liu Guanqing asked suddenly, with some kind of grievance suppressed in her eyes.
Xie Wuyao smiled, and explained his thoughts truthfully: "Brother Liu, don't think too much, I really came to you to make a living. My last mission has been completed, and I should return to Beijing as soon as possible. The poisonous injury occurred I wasted a lot of time. When I return to Beijing this time, the master will definitely punish me severely. So since I have encountered this matter and Brother Liu is here, I may be able to make up for it if I do well. If I can't do it well, I have to coax Big Brother Liu to accompany me back to the Xie Mansion, for your sake, the master may be able to spare me."
"Don't be joking. You are so capable, it's too late for Mr. Xie to hurt you, how can you be willing to punish you?" Although Liu Guanqing said this, she couldn't help but recall those hideous torture injuries on Xie Wuyao's body.Those injuries were not caused in a short period of time, but more like being beaten and tortured for years.But when it comes to the secrets of the Xie Mansion, Liu Guanqing is too embarrassed to ask more.Since Xie Wuyao said this time that he would take him to Xie's mansion, there are some things that he doesn't need to ask, he will understand with his eyes.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's go to the sub-helm of the Long Whale Gang first. If they don't admit to the poisoning, I can also make some antidote and give it to Peng Qiang and the others." Xie Wuyao said It was very relaxed, "I don't want them to know my secret, Brother Liu and I will go to the Long Whale Gang, it's easy for a fox to pretend to be a tiger."
Needless to say, Liu Guanqing already knew about Xie Wuyao's plan.Xie Wuyao's blood can detoxify all kinds of poisons, and he directly cut the blood to make medicines. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, who knows what those people will miss in the future.That's why Xie Wuyao lied that he could negotiate with the Long Whale Gang. No matter what the talk was, if he went around and brought the antidote back, he would have an excuse to cover up.
In the eyes of others, the Long Whale Gang would definitely not admit to poisoning, but they gave the medicine in private. It is normal for others to ask the Long Whale Gang not to admit anything or even deliberately distort the truth.So Xie Wuyao took out the antidote and asked the Long Whale Gang to cover it up. This set of methods can be said to be quite thorough in thinking about people's hearts.
Liu Guanqing had an expression of admiration, obviously they were about the same age, even Xie Wuyao looked younger, but both martial arts and intelligence were obviously much higher, and she became more and more determined to get along with Xie Wuyao more and learn more .
Peng Qiang snorted coldly in his nostrils, regained his official prestige, and shook his brocade robes. He didn't mention the embarrassment just now, and he didn't want to openly make things worse. The girl is our guest, and we were careful to protect her when she was hunted down before. Chief Yu, since it was a misunderstanding, can we leave now?"
Yu Rujing said with a nonchalant smile: "Of course, of course, you can leave now. You don't know each other. If you offend me today, please bear with me. If you need anything in the future, go to the nearest pier Find someone from our Long Whale Gang."
Peng Qiang said perfunctorily, "You're welcome."
Yu Rujing took the coolies under his command and walked away swaggeringly.
After the members of the Long Whale Gang left, Lin Wu suddenly held her stomach and cried: "Master Peng, Liu Shaoxia, save me, the members of the Long Whale Gang may have poisoned me, my stomach hurts..."
