"Wu Zhaode really said that?"
At some point, cold sweat broke out on the owner's face.
The muscles under the skin twitch uncontrollably.
After a long while, he breathed out intermittently, and groped for a few handles with his trembling right hand: "Wu Zhaode and that Shen Youli, are they really good enough to wear a pair of pants, or is he afraid of that neither male nor female monster?" ?”
"Wu Zhaode, coward!"
As he spoke, he grabbed the handle and broke it into pieces.
There is a cold light in his eyes like a poisonous snake.
As the crumbs fell from his fingertips, the doorman carefully tested the master's words: "Wu Zhaode obviously doesn't want to offend Shen Youli. Master, what should we do? Not to mention that we can't produce evidence, even if we do, Shen Youli will recognize it." ?Although she has not claimed the title of king, she has the power of a human king. She is only one step away from ascending the throne and establishing a country. This matter alone can be used to convict the Yi tribe of a major disrespect charge..."
The head of the house shouted reflexively: "She dares?"
These two words seemed to give him enough courage.
She stood up from the mat, and her heart skipped a beat: "Not to mention that she is not yet the head of the country, and has not yet ascended the throne to establish the country, so what if she is already the head of the country? She wants to run before she can stand still, and she is not afraid of falling to her death. ! Take my private seal and contact everyone to discuss!"
What to discuss?
Naturally, it’s not about how much money to donate.
He wanted to take advantage of Shen Tang's unsteady foothold to eradicate him! This idea is very bold, but it is not without a chance of success. At this time, Shen Tang had experienced several battles, and the elites she brought from Longwu County were greatly damaged. It has grown to its current size by receiving the legacies of allies and enemy prisoners of the Dragon Slaying Bureau. The size seems huge, but there is a hidden danger - the meat eaten in the mouth has not been fully digested! These allies' legacies and enemy prisoners have not yet been truly tamed by her and can be used to instigate rebellion!
The more the owner thought about it, the more excited he became.
My mind was spinning rapidly.
In addition to the above, Shen Tang also has a fatal hidden danger - her territory suddenly expanded too much and too fast, and she could only send her men out to take over. The weak troops left behind were at the time when the defense was at its weakest! What a God-given opportunity!
As long as he secretly contacts the dissatisfied aristocratic families who are threatened by Shen Tang, and together openly submits to Shen Tang, boosts her arrogance, lowers her guard, and secretly finds an opportunity to launch a sneak attack! Catch the enemy by surprise and attack them unprepared! Why not?
The diners listened to the master's plan.
Whispering softly: "Although this plan is good, there are rumors that she has been promoted to the sixteenth level. With such strong strength, even if our heavy troops attack and suppress her, she can still escape with all her strength. I am afraid that a disaster will be imminent by then. , please parents think twice.”
The head of the family was displeased: "I have made up my mind!"
Naturally, he has heard about Shen Tang's strength, but he is not afraid of the sixteenth-level master: "No matter whether Shen Youli is really promiscuous or not, her preference for beauty is always true..."
The doorman was stunned: "What do parents mean?"
The head of the family sneered: "Since ancient times, heroes have had trouble with beauty."
Beauty trap, how many powerful people have fallen into this trap?
The diners always think something is strange.
Beauty traps are all aimed at men, but Shen Youli is a woman, and I heard that her appearance is one of the few in the world.
In terms of beauty, she seems to be better than the famous former king Zheng Qiao. Shen Tang looks at such a face in the bronze mirror every day. Is there really a beauty in the world who can captivate her? The guest was skeptical about this. How could the head of the family not be able to read the doubt on his face?
The owner of the house laughed at the diners for not understanding the beauty trap.
The essence of the honey trap does not lie in "beauty", but in "people"! No matter how beautiful the skin is, there will be a day when the beauty fades and the love fades. The surprise brought by the appearance will not last long, once you get it, you will no longer cherish it. A true beauty trap gives the target not just beauty, but emotions, the soul resonance that the other party can't find, which is unique and precious in the world!
When any hero meets such a beauty, how can he not fall into despair? Even if he knows that the road ahead is full of dangers, he is still willing to go for it. Even if you die, your heart will be extremely satisfied, because your empty heart will be comforted and your soul will be complete.
The diners were dumbfounded.
Then, he asked a very fatal question.
"Where can I find such a beauty?"
The one who seduces Shen Youli must be a man at least, right?
The ambition on the parent's face must have paused for a moment, and then said: "Which of the men in each family is not from a well-known family? They have all been carefully raised since childhood. Shen Youli was born in a rough place, and the staff around him are either mud-legged commoners or from poor families. What insight can he have? "
Has she ever seen a noble son from a truly aristocratic family? He said this, but he didn't dare to hand over important tasks to just anyone. All conditions for the candidate must be met! Shen Youli will definitely be fascinated by their carefully woven love web!
The diners use the private seal of the family owner to contact each family.
The voices within these aristocratic families are roughly divided into two factions.
One group wants to take advantage of the opportunity to kill Shen Tang and avoid the shame of her blackmail; the other group does not want to cause trouble, spend money to eliminate disasters, and work hard to achieve success. The former is from a wealthy family and has great arrogance; the latter is smaller and dare not gamble with his ancestral foundation and does not want to take risks.
The voices of the two factions are not yet unified.
"Have you heard clearly? How much does the Zhang family want to pay?" The head of the "Bang Bang Faction" family, who was preparing to spend money to eliminate the disaster, was pacing back and forth in the main hall. When he heard the leader's footsteps, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly grabbed the person's arm. Knowing himself and his enemy, he can fight a hundred battles without danger, and he doesn't want to waste money.
Even if they knew that Shen Tang was extorting money, they could only admit it with their noses pinched! If we can figure out the amounts of other families, and if our own family is 10% richer on this basis, we can get through the difficulties at the minimum cost! Each family is afraid of being the bottom, and they are tight on their budgets. There is no upper limit on the amount of donation, and families with less established backgrounds cannot compete with those established aristocratic families.
When the mouth of the aristocratic family should be loose, it is looser than the waist rope of an old man and old lady, but when it should be tight, it is really watertight.
If we can't find the specific number, we can only save the country through curves.
Determine the approximate number based on recent industry news from each company.
The principal whispered to the family leader, and the latter's face became visibly serious. The clan elder on the side also felt sorry for the money. The more money is paid out of the family's public account, the less money is distributed to the clan members. Except for the main branch of each family, the branches are not well off.
The clan elder said: "Do you have to get this money?"
The head of the family was worried and said impatiently: "Of course she can't come out, but Shen Youli is not a good person, how can she not bear grudges? She knows the rumors circulating within each family! The clay figurine is still very angry, let alone Shen Youli? What kind of good man and woman can she be who can be killed out of the grass? She is just afraid that if she doesn’t pay the money, she will be resented, and if she turns around she will lead others to attack our three tribes!"
The clan elders also know this truth.
He just cares about money.
Not all aristocratic families are short of money. Previously, the Allied Forces of the Dragon Slaying Bureau and Zheng Qiao were fighting in Qianzhou, Yanzhou. You came and I went back and forth. If the local aristocratic families did not want to take sides, they had to pay for protection. After searching layer by layer, less than 40% of the granary was left. Due to bad weather conditions in the family fields, this year’s autumn harvest was not ideal. There is a lot of savings in the warehouse, but you can't bear to take it out, as if you have cut out his flesh.
But, compared with life, money is not important.
The clan elder said with a sad face: "It would be better if the loss of money can eliminate the disaster, but I am afraid that if the money is spent, a disaster will come. Shen Youli wants evidence, can't he send Tao Yan's old subordinates? We are also raped. People are deceived, and those who don’t know are not guilty!”
The head of the family: "..."
Why doesn't he know this?
But Tao Yan's old men ran away as soon as they heard something was wrong. They all ran away faster than rabbits, and they didn't even catch the ghost.
The clan elder suddenly said: "Why don't you show your loyalty to Mr. Shen?"
This proposal was flatly rejected by the head of the family.
"No, this can't happen!"
He knows what it means for clan elders to be loyal.
Showing loyalty requires a petition. What could be more valuable at the moment than various factions plotting to overthrow Shen Tang? However, no one from each family dared to do this, and would rather spend money and lose money. Because the consequences of offending a noble family are more serious than offending Shen Tang!
Shen Youli was only the king of the land under his feet for a short time.
Are there still few kings who have founded a country on this land?
Most of them died in the second generation, and some disappeared in the first lifetime. Those who can be passed down to the third generation are rare, and Shen Youli is no exception. In less than ten or twenty years, her country will follow suit. But the aristocratic family is different and has tenacious vitality!
Once you break the rules——
It is feared that not only the Yi tribe will be liquidated in the future.
He couldn't afford this consequence.
After saying that, the head of the family endured his headache and prepared the money to donate.
In the next half month, both the ranking group and the beauty group were in full swing to promote progress. After the former went through a lot of intrigues and various schemes, he was finally ready. The latter is also preparing money on the surface, and the honey trap is well prepared.
It's still late at night, the moon is dark and the wind is high.
The well-organized family mansion is still brightly lit with candles.
There is a secret room hidden under a certain study room in the house.
Although it is said to be a secret room, the area actually occupied is not small at all.
Its layout is exactly the same as that of the main hall. A middle-aged man with a goatee sits at the head of the table, and a young and elegant young man kneels below. He is said to be a young man, but there is still a bit of childishness between his eyebrows and his eyes are clear. It looks like he has just been crowned.
The crane's bones are loose and the mountains are standing in the distance.
No beautiful word can be out of place when applied to a young man. That face was simply carved with great care by Empress Nuwa. It's just that the middle-aged man didn't know what he said. The young man suppressed the influx of humiliation, closed his eyes, and nodded imperceptibly: "Father, don't worry, I will fulfill my mission."
The middle-aged man stroked his beard with satisfaction.
The son in front of him was not his favorite, but he was definitely the most beautiful, smartest, and most lovable of all his sons. Because his biological mother was a famous dancer, countless rich and wealthy children were jealous just to have sex with her, but in the end he came out on top. The dancing girl admired his talents and family background, and after an unexpected pregnancy, she was taken home by a man.
Her dance was only for him to see.
However, no matter how good the dance is, it is boring to watch too much.
The dancing girl gave birth to a son successfully, and he was a handsome boy from the moment he was born, perfectly inheriting his mother's qualities. It's a pity that he didn't inherit it from a man. He has no cultivation base and is just an ordinary person. In order to survive in the big house, he learned to observe people's emotions from an early age, learned everything quickly, was always the best in ethnic studies, and was proficient in the six arts of a gentleman. Apart from not being able to practice, he is perfect in every aspect.
Is there any more suitable candidate for the beauty trap than him?
"I have wronged my son. After the matter is completed——"
He was about to say a few tender words, but was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door. The father and son looked at each other, and they both saw solemn looks in each other's eyes - could it be that the plan was exposed?
Unexpectedly, the figure of his confidant walked out of the shadows.
The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and yelled angrily.
"Didn't I tell you that no one is allowed in?"
When the confidant completely walked into the candlelight, the young man realized that something was wrong. The confidant's expression was stiff and his body muscles were tense. He was obviously being forced by others! He drew his sword and stood in front of the middle-aged man. A contemptuous joke filled the air: "Heh, he's quite sharp."
The young man shouted: "Who?"
A blindfolded warrior with pigtails and exotic attire walked out of the darkness. At first glance, this warrior appears to be in his mid-twenties, but the young man knows that the age of a brave warrior cannot be judged by his appearance. The person's breath is almost non-existent, and his steps are silent. None of the brave warriors the young man has come into contact with can do this. The person here is very strong!
The middle-aged man was frightened: "How did you get in?"
The door to the secret room is open.
The father and son could not hear any movement outside.
The blindfolded young man tilted his head: "Ah, they walked in. Do you want to ask the people outside? They are not dead, but they won't wake up for a while. You father and son are very interesting. You stay up in the middle of the night and plot here. what?"
When the middle-aged man heard this, his heart beat rapidly.
"Are you—sent by Shen Youli?"
"Please respectfully call Mama Shen Jun. Not everyone can call her name." Who else could the blindfolded young man be if he wasn't Gong Xiqiu? He crossed his arms and leaned against the wooden pillar, touched in his arms, took out a scroll and threw it directly at the man's face, "However, those who don't know are not guilty, so I will forgive you this time. By the way, you have my question. You haven’t answered yet, what are you discussing in the middle of the night?”
The middle-aged man untied the string with trembling fingers.
The letter was unfolded in his hand.
Two lines with bloody red characters burst into view - [The inner treasury was burned to beautiful ashes, and the public minister's bones were trampled in the street. 】
The color of the father and son instantly faded.
Gong Xiqiu yawned: "It's the same question, I don't want to repeat it a third time. I'm also very busy. I walked out of a county, and Mama pulled me back to deal with the aftermath."
Alas, at this rate, when will he see his nephew?
After saying that, he released the power of the sixteenth-level great master for a moment. The middle-aged man vomited blood and his son fainted and fell to the ground.
"me--"
Gong Xiqiu regained his power in an instant, but the suffocating feeling of the mountains still remained on his skin, and his clothes were wet with cold sweat. He was wet all over, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
The middle-aged man changed his mind with difficulty.
"We, father and son, are discussing... about donating money... Lord Shen will rule with mercy. As subjects, we should follow suit!"
Gong Xiqiu smiled slightly: "Has the discussion been reached?"
The middle-aged man nodded: "We've discussed it!"
Gongxi Qiumo rubbed his chin: "When I came here, I did see a lot of boxes. You guys are quite generous. However, it's just this little. Doesn't it rank too high?"
The middle-aged man smiled uglier than crying.
"Those are just some of them..."
What box?
It was all nonsense made by the warrior in front of him, but he could only respond.
Gong Xiqiu said: "I see, then you father and son will continue to discuss, and I will rush to other houses to urge them."
Leave the secret room and jump to the roof.
He vaguely noticed something and turned to face that place.
Under the moonlight, there seemed to be a vine-like shadow lying on the roof and wall of the house, crawling, twisting, and clawing. Gong Xiqiu touched his arm with goosebumps and avoided it.
