The Record of Righteousness

Laifu Inn.

This place has become the secret handover place of the Royal Horse Supervisor.

Zhou Cuntian sat in the front seat, and the flickering candlelight reflected his gloomy and uncertain face:

"Do you really mean what you two said?"

The two men knelt on one knee, lowered their heads and said in a deep voice:

"Sir, I don't dare to talk nonsense. That guy was indeed shot to death by Beizi with a crossbow. When the two of us were about to take his head, we unexpectedly saw the Qi family approaching in the distance.

The two of us didn't have time to cut off his head, so we just pushed him off the cliff in order to destroy the body and eliminate all traces. Even if he had steel and iron bones, he wouldn't survive! "

After hearing this, Zhou Cuntian felt relieved:

"After you return to Beijing, you two will go to the Reserve Mansion of the Royal Horse Supervisor to receive one hundred taels of gold and be promoted to the third level."

The two were overjoyed when they heard this, and looked at each other seemingly casually:

"Thank you, Lord Zhou! The young ones have resigned."

"Go down."

Looking at the two retreating figures, Zhou Cuntian held his chin, his eyes flickering, wondering what he was thinking.

"Lord Zhou, we need to rush back to the capital as soon as possible and hand over the thing to Eunuch Wu before we can feel at ease. It will be a matter of time for the people in Dongchang to find this place. If they stay here for a long time, things will change sooner or later." Duan Chengwu suddenly spoke. road.

"What Mr. Duan said makes sense. Let the brothers rest for the night and set off at Yinshi tomorrow."

Zhou Cuntian nodded, and seduced Duan Chengwu:

"As long as this thing is returned to the capital safely, and thanks to Eunuch Wu's relationship, Master Duan's status in the Imperial Guard will surely skyrocket."

Duan Chengwu was very excited: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, I will do my best."

Kaijia.

Snap! ! !

A teacup was smashed to the ground, and tea splashed everywhere.

The butler standing aside was trembling and sweating profusely. From time to time, he wiped off the fine sweat with his sleeves. He lowered his head and could only hear the master's roar.

"You traitor! You traitor! Didn't I warn you not to associate with Dongchang? It's so good now!"

Qi Gong pointed at the only son's nose and cursed loudly. He was so angry that he stamped his feet and even his beard was trembling slightly.

"Father, I didn't expect that the thieves would be so arrogant. They would directly attack our company's most secret port. Maybe they can do it carefully!"

Qi Shufeng looked quite embarrassed when he was scolded in front of others.

"Alas."

"Now that the disaster has come, not to mention the servants and warriors who died, just the things we lost amounted to millions of taels of silver!"

When he thought of this, Qi Gong felt extremely heavy and his anger remained unabated.

"Alas!"? Qi Gong sighed heavily, sitting in the front seat as if he had aged a few years.

After a period of suffocating silence, Qi Shufeng sighed and had no choice but to break the deadlock:

"Father, now that the matter has come to this, I think we should go to Eunuch Li from Dongchang to recover those things."

When Qigong heard that it was Dongchang again, he shouted:

"How to recover it? We are a business, not a sect! No matter how many people are sent there, it will only lead to death."

The butler said cautiously:

"Master, Master, those thieves did not snatch away the weapons, and those things have not been touched at all."

"Oh?" The father and son couldn't help but wonder.

Qi Shufeng frowned:

"Father, since those bandits did not rob ordnance, I am afraid that this matter was done by the Royal Horse Guards, and they are the only ones who can have such force.

The boy guessed that the news about our company's cooperation with Dongchang reached them, and they were dissatisfied and came up with this dirty trick. "

Qi Gong said dissatisfied:

"Then we can't send people to snatch it back. After all, they are members of the imperial court."

"The imperial court? Humph, can the imperial court do evil things like this?" Qi Shufeng snorted coldly, feeling very dissatisfied with his father's compromise.

"You! Treason! How dare you say such treacherous words!"

Qi Gong's eyes were blazing with fire. He couldn't believe that his son dared to say such things. After all, he was old. He raised the luxurious sandalwood crutch in his hand and was about to smash it.

Qi Shufeng suddenly stood up, caught the crutch hitting his head, and said with a cold face:

"Father, you are getting old and have lost your enterprising spirit, so our Qi family will continue to decline. My child is now over forty, do you still think of me as a child?"

After saying that, Qi Shufeng let go of the crutches again, Qi Gong's face flushed with anger, and he sat back down.

Qi Shufeng originally thought that his old father would be furious after he finished speaking, but unexpectedly, when he saw that his old father had stopped talking, his heart softened again.

He waved his hand to ask the butler to step back. The butler breathed a sigh of relief and ran out quickly.

Qi Shufeng went to the angry old father and bowed deeply, poured a cup of tea and handed it over respectfully:

"Father, this cooperation with Dongchang is not just a child's sudden enthusiasm. Please listen to me carefully."

Qi Gong took the tea and took a sip, his expression softened slightly.

Qi Shufeng continued:

"Both Dongchang and Yumajian are the arms of the imperial court, but they both intend to win over each other.

If we don't stand in line in time, when the people behind them take over the world in the future, they will definitely retaliate against our company. If we don't stand in line in time, we will definitely die.

Father, you must know the reason why the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop. "

Qigong sighed and said:

"As a father, why don't you know that? What you said is reasonable, but I am afraid of it. Nowadays, the situation in the court is changing and unpredictable. It may lead to death. This is why my father does not allow you to be an official. policy.”

Then he waved his hand and said:

"Forget it, since you want to cooperate with the East Factory, then cooperate. You are not young anymore, you must be very careful when dealing with the government. A small mistake can cost someone's life."
