Various remarks were made one after another, but the parties involved, Ba Qing, King Xiaoyao of Qin, and even King Xiang Chen of Chu, did not come out to refute the rumors or clarify the truth. As the wedding day approaches, the rumors become more and more outrageous, and the situation intensifies.
Finally, Xiaoyao Wang Jiangfan came forward to confirm that Ba Qing was indeed his retainer, but he was a Chu native after all. Now that he had entered the Qin Dynasty, conflicts between his family and the country were unavoidable, and he did not want to force others into trouble. I came here this time to ask about Yinglu's important people and Ba Qing's choice. If he agrees, King Xiaoyao is willing to let him go.
But if he was coerced by Yinglu, King Xiaoyao would ask for an explanation.
The people of Chu are all impressed by his willingness to openly confront this matter.
When he said this, he was very angry. Very reasonable. Many people couldn't help but give thumbs up to this Qin native.
On the other hand, Yinglu kept silent, which made Chu Ren, who already felt awkward about this matter, feel that he was more than one level behind King Xiaoyao.
What is even more difficult to explain is that Ba Qing has never been seen, and it seems that the rumors of being under house arrest have been confirmed.
Soon after, news came out from the Chu palace that the king knew about this matter, and what King Xiaoyao said was corroborated. However, Yinglu was a great hero of Chu, and the King of Chu was not in a position to interfere in private affairs, but he was willing to do justice to both parties.
As soon as King Xiang spoke, the matter was confirmed, but there was still a question about whether Ba Qing was under house arrest.
Immediately afterwards, Xiaoyao King Jiangfan made a request to Juluhou. Before the wedding, Ba Qing should be handed over to him in front of the Chu Palace for his own choice.
As a result, all eyes were focused on Juluhou Mansion.
If you are clean, can you show your attitude?
Little did they know that Yinglu, who had just returned, had already furiously chopped down three messengers.
He never imagined that Jiang Fan would do this. Not only did he not expect that Jiang Fan would openly expose this matter to the sun, but he also never expected that Xiang Chen would appear to be fair and just. What notary.
Where does the so-called investment certificate come from? He had no idea about this.
"Bring Ba Qing out for me!"
Yinglu's face was livid, his eyes were as gloomy as water, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
Not long after, Ba Qing came to the front hall and looked at Yinglu, who was full of evil spirits and holding a bloody sword, but her expression was very dull.
"Ba Qing——!"
Ying Lusen said coldly: "Give me an explanation!"
Ba Qing said calmly: "I don't know what explanation the Marquis wants."
Yinglu stared at her: "I have supported you for no less than ten years, helping you to cultivate the southern border, expand the five countries, and become the richest in the world. But you don't want to repay, and you secretly seek refuge with King Qin Wen. That's not all. , and now it is rumored that you are the retainer of that thief Jiang Fan, is there such a thing?"
Ba Qing said: "This is indeed the case."
Yinglu's long sword suddenly pointed at Ba Qing's throat and said in a sinister voice: "You immature bitch!"
Ba Qing looked sarcastic: "Why did the Marquis say this? Although the Marquis supported Ba Qing, Ba Qing never treated the Marquis badly. In these years, most of the expenses of the Hou Mansion came from the Qing. Speaking of which, my wife does not owe the Marquis anything. What the hell.
As for who to take refuge in, you also said that Ba Qing has taken refuge in more than one person. The Qing Dynasty was a businessman, doing business all over the world, what was wrong with that? Don’t forget, Lord Marquis, that you also instigated the Qing Dynasty to secretly seek refuge with Jiang Shu, the crown prince of the Xia Kingdom..."
Yinglu said angrily: "Shut up!"
He gritted his teeth and said: "Qiaoyanlingse, what is your cooperation with King Xiaoyao now? I know it clearly. When you took refuge with King Qin Wen, I already knew it well. I tolerated you because you were still cooperative. I didn’t expect that you would go so far as to take refuge in this person again, which is quite a calculation!”
Ba Qing chuckled softly: "What the Marquis said is wrong. Ba Qing is not the Marquis' personal subordinate. He is free to cooperate with and serve whomever he wants. Once again, Qing does not owe the Marquis. Besides, the Marquis supported Ba Qing in the first place. , why... I’m afraid I don’t need to explain it so clearly.”
"you--!"
Yinglu was furious, but had nothing to say.
Ba Qing looked at him and said, "Why is the Marquis so angry? What Qing said was the truth, but he didn't say that he would choose King Xiaoyao in the end..."
Yinglu's eyes flashed: "What did you say?"
Ba Qing took two steps forward: "Master Hou, am I not clear? Merchants can cooperate with anyone. Qing has cooperated with the Crown Prince of Xia, the King of Qin, and King Xiaoyao... But the final choice is not Are you in Qing's hands? Why are you so anxious?"
Yinglu's expression moved slightly: "What do you mean..."
Ba Qing smiled slightly: "The purpose of cooperating with King Qin is to earn Qin's money. Now that King Qin has lost power, is it not very reasonable for him to turn to King Xiaoyao? But I didn't expect that the Marquis was in a hurry. This move made Qing very embarrassed. . However, as a Chu native, Qing is basically in southern Xinjiang and cannot afford to lose. If the Marquis insists on doing this, Qing will have no choice but to reluctantly give up Qin’s huge profits and return to Chu.”
Yinglu smiled coldly: "That's a good argument. Do you think I will believe it?"
Ba Qing looked calm: "Believe it or not, but the so-called certificate of surrender in Jiang Fan's hand is just a piece of cooperation document, and the theory of retainers is even more nonsense. That's why the Xiaoyao King pretends to be generous, but the truth is , he cannot control this lady at all.
Does Mr. Hou know that Emperor Qin Yingpei lost to King Xiaoyao in a major event, so he was not allowed to transfer his cooperation with the Qing Dynasty to Jiang Fan. Naturally, he was unwilling to give in. He wrote a book to the Marquis out of frustration. Not only did he want to destroy Ba Qing, but he even wanted to cause Jiang Fan and the Marquis to become hostile. But he didn't know how the Marquis could be played with so easily because he was so wise. "
Yinglu's expression changed: "You mean... you won't choose that guy?"
Ba Qing said seriously: "I will not choose to marry the Marquis."
Yinglu frowned: "Ba Qing, you'd better speak clearly."
Ba Qing lowered his eyes and glanced at the sword in Yinglu's hand: "The Marquis is too murderous. Please make it clear, I'm afraid the Marquis will be unhappy."
Yinglu slowly put the long sword on the table: "Tell me, you should know who I am. If I can't get it, no one else can get it. You should understand..."
Ba Qing just chuckled and shook his head: "Master Hou, these are not words that a person like you should say. Ba Qing doesn't matter, the status and power of the Marquis is what you really care about. What will happen if you kill me?" Saying something unpleasant is just a breath of bad breath, and it will do no good to the Marquis, right?"
Yinglu's eyes were deep, and his thin lips were slightly raised: "The most important thing about my career is ruthlessness. In order to marry you, I dare to kill my wife, so you'd better remember it clearly. This is a threat. Don’t think you can see through me…”
Ba Qing didn't care: "Qing is alone. He has no worries about life or death. He only has yellow and white things that he doesn't know where they will end up. But for Qing, these things will not be taken with him in life or death. Don't think so, Lord Marquis. You can control this lady."
Yinglu snorted coldly, and the long sword flew up, pointing directly at Ba Qing's eyebrows, piercing the flesh, and a trace of blood slowly trickled down the bridge of her nose.
