When I thought of this, I became more and more awe-struck: "I'm a lower official... I'm a lower official... I won't thank you for your kindness."
No matter what purpose Mr. Jiang has, this can indeed clear his suspicion.
As for the rest, Young Master Jiang can do as he pleases. Anyway, he already has all the leverage in his hands. Fortunately, he believed that Mr. Jiang would still use him and would not dig a hole to bury him.
If Poppy knew what he was thinking, he would definitely sneer at her. Not to mention Poppy, even Tian Mol felt that the county guard was deceived by Jiang Fan.
"Young master, this is another hidden secret. You are really good at playing chess and taking advantage of every step. No wonder Zhang Yi, an old fox, has to drink your footbath."
Tian Mole is getting more and more excited. It is not very interesting to work with such a master. He has many connections and plans. You can even never see where he starts writing, but every time he comes, it is unexpected and reasonable.
"Okay, stop flattering, Zhang Yi is not that simple. I always feel that there is something he is not revealing this time."
"No matter what, you won this round." Although Tian Wan also understood that Zhang Yi was difficult to deal with, winning was always a happy thing.
Jiang Fan smiled and said: "You have also made great achievements. Not only did you tell the truth, but you also performed well in the water prison."
Mole said: "I hope I didn't reveal my fault. That poppy is also a ghost."
Jiang Fan said: "It's okay. Even if she is suspicious, she has no reason. After all, you did follow Zhang Yi's instructions and went to assassinate me, and you didn't hold back. Speaking of which...you are quite vicious. Do you really want to kill me?"
Jiang Fan was a little suspicious of this.
Tian Mole trembled all over and quickly explained: "You said, it's okay, just let me do what I want. Don't settle the scores now."
Jiang Fan chuckled: "Okay, don't pretend to be anything, your acting skills deserve a statuette."
"Oh?" Tian Mole licked his scarlet lips: "I heard that in the past, there was a young man from an aristocratic family in Baihua Building in Paradise City. In order to redeem the life of a beautiful lady, he built a golden man according to her weight and appearance as a ransom. It was a good talk. Could it be that Young Master..."
Jiang Fan glared at her: "You are very well-informed about this kind of gossip. Don't talk about these nonsense, Zhang Yi will be back soon, you should do what you need to do."
Lap Mole stopped teasing: "He didn't let me participate in the planning of this incident, so I just pretended not to know anything. There is no need to be deliberate."
"You don't understand..." Jiang Fan pondered for a moment: "I'm a little worried because he didn't let you participate. It's been you who have been contacting Sima Jing all this time, but you have been excluded from this matter, which is not normal."
"Master, are you saying that Zhang Yi is doubting me?"
Jiang Fan said uncertainly: "I'm not sure, but Poppy is indeed doubting you. She was clearly testing you in the water prison. It may not be Zhang Yi who asked her to do this. Or, Zhang Yi's last move was not intended to kill me at all, but was aimed at... you."
Tian Mole frowned slightly: "Zhang Yi is cunning and cunning, how should I deal with it?"
Jiang Fan narrowed his eyes: "It's not difficult. It's impossible for someone like him to completely reassure him. It's better to just do the opposite."
Tian Mole was stunned: "What do you mean, Master?"
Jiang Fan said: "You and him have a cooperative relationship. If this fails, you can ridicule him as much as you want and make him feel your anger for not participating in this matter. You can even propose to terminate the cooperation. You can also..."
Jiang Fan smiled and said: "Tell him clearly that you think it would be good to cooperate with me."
The mole was shocked: "Master, if you want to kill me, just say so, okay?"
Jiang Fan blinked: "What do you think?"
Tian Nao is not a fool. How could he not understand what Jiang Fan meant? Obviously, since you suspect me of being evil, I will tell you clearly. If you can't do it, I really have other ideas. Why, we are cooperating anyway. .
"Young master is very calculating. Zhang Yi has lost to you twice. I am a witness. If I really say this, he will not think too much."
"This trick won't work on others, but it should work on Zhang Yi. If Zhang Yi is willing to let you go, then you leave immediately, which means that he is really murderous. If he doesn't let you go, you take the opportunity to kill him. Don’t be afraid of conditions that are of practical benefit to the farmer. If the lion opens his mouth, he may not agree, but he will definitely give you some benefits.”
"I understand. Young Master wants him to think he understands my thoughts."
"Yes, but once again, if he simply agrees to terminate the cooperation, he must run away immediately. He will really kill you."
Lap Mole nodded cautiously.
Jiang Fan looked at her: "Actually, you can jump out of the whirlpool, and you will have a lot of use in the Qin State."
Tian Nao suddenly smiled: "Master, are you worried about me? No need. Tian Nao is determined to revive the farm family. How can he be so timid and fearful? On the contrary, he is a little excited. He can fight against a person like Zhang Yi and gain a lot of experience. Today's peasant family does not need it. A leader who is uncontested.”
"You have to think carefully. If you are not careful, it can easily lead to disaster." Jiang Fan warned.
Tian Nao rarely showed a serious expression: "Don't think about this matter. As the young master said to Yan Dazhi, my greatest value is Zhang Yi at the moment. Wealth and honor can be found in danger. I, Tian Nao, want to give it a try."
Jiang Fan sighed: "Wealth and honor are sought in danger, and what follows is that wealth and honor are sought in danger, and lost in danger. One tenth of the time you seek it, and nine tenths of the time you lose it..."
Tian Yanran smiled and said: "Then try not to lose it. Master... In fact, if my subordinates say that besides being a farmer, I, Tian Mol, seem to be this kind of person. What do you think?"
Jiang Fan was slightly stunned, and finally shook his head: "Okay, it's up to you, stay alone in Longtan, I can't help you with anything, but remember my words, remember it clearly - if you encounter extreme danger, you can find bliss."
Tian Mole was startled, and then his beautiful eyes showed an unbelievable light.
Seeing that she was about to speak, Jiang Fan just shook his head.
Seeing this, Lap Mole took a deep breath and swallowed the words that came to his lips.
He just said softly: "Fortunately, Tian Mole is not with the wrong person."
Jiang Fan waved his hand: "Anyway, please pay more attention. If something goes wrong, back off. Go ahead. It's time to get ready to welcome Zhang Yi."
The mole stood up to leave and turned around, but his eyes were full of depth.
——
On the bank of Longjiang River, the wind and rain have begun to subside.
The dark clouds slowly dispersed, and a ray of skylight fell from the gap in the dark clouds, reflecting a faint rainbow on the river.
Zhang Yi, who had been sitting quietly for a long time, finally dropped the chess piece in his hand.
"My father is a master of extraordinary skills, and I am willing to be inferior to him."
Zhang Zhiling said calmly: "The chess game is not over yet."
Zhang Yi looked into the distance: "The wind and rain have only stopped temporarily."
Zhang Zhiling smiled softly and put the chess pieces back into the box: "In any case, the storm has stopped for now, and we can go on our way."
The old woman stood near Zhang Yi at some point, her lips moving as if she said something.
