When these words came out, they immediately caught Shangguan's attention. He stepped back suddenly, subconsciously keeping a certain distance from Xiang Liang, and his vigilance was raised.
This was a provocation, Shangguan knew it, Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew also knew it, but Shangguan couldn't help his conditioned reaction and inner speculation.
"You wait."
He pointed at Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew, and there was doubt in his words.
Xiang Liang was stunned and didn't know why for a moment, but he quickly realized what he was doing and laughed quickly, "Shangguan misunderstood, Liang has no such intention, don't accept his instigation, Liang is wholeheartedly devoted to Duke Xiang."
After finishing speaking, he did not forget to glare at Li Zhao fiercely. Li Zhao didn't care at all, but he was determined in his heart. Such a reaction of the person called Shangguan proved that he was wary of the two of them. In other words, They are not of the same mind, which makes it much easier to handle.
He added: "It's not a misunderstanding, he just has two minds."
"If you don't believe it, why did he stop your sword just now?"
If anything else, Shangguan would be more wary, but this! All of a sudden, most of his vigilance was gone. Xiang Liang stopped his sword, of course he knew the reason.
"Shangguan, this man is cunning, don't listen to his slander."
Xiang Liang cannot let Li Zhao continue talking, otherwise it will cause them to have a grudge, which will be very detrimental to the current situation.
Li Zhao added: "It's not slander. Although they say they are with you, they are also used by me. Capturing me here today is an expedient measure. The purpose is to lure you out and catch you all."
At this moment, without knowing who the other party was, he could only make it up. Of course, he didn't expect it to be effective. He mainly wanted to find out who they were.
But they were surprised. They tied him here and didn't ask any questions. They simply put him aside and didn't kill him. This was completely different from ordinary kidnappings.
Kidnapping is nothing more than seeking money and profit, but they don't seem to be that way. Moreover, why they kidnapped him, it seems that he has no need to kidnap him.
For the money of Shanglinyuan? Nowadays, many wealthy businessmen are cooperating with Shanglinyuan. This is a win-win situation and has been responded to by many people. If they really want money, they can cooperate with Shanglinyuan. There is no need to resort to such means.
At present, he can only tentatively find out the purpose of these three people. Also, they just mentioned firearms and the like. It is not difficult to guess that these three people must be the backbone of the gangsters, and maybe they are the ones planning the rebellion in the capital of Guizhou.
Sometimes, the more you talk, the more loopholes you have. Perhaps, this is the case in Shangguan's mind. Li Zhao said so much, but it made Shangguan feel less wary.
Soon, he became calm and showed a smile. He walked towards Li Zhao with deep meaning and asked, "Do you know who we are? Why did we kidnap you?"
This was exactly what Li Zhao wanted to know. He couldn't help but have some reaction, but this reaction was quickly covered up, and what he got in exchange was an incomprehensible expression.
"Hehe!" Shangguan sneered and bent down, pointing a finger on Li Zhao's forehead, "Of course it's for you, you will know when the time comes."
When Li Zhao heard this, his heart suddenly shook. What did this mean? for him? Isn’t it for Shanglinyuan? This was obviously wrong. If this person really wanted to give up Shanglinyuan, he would definitely say something like giving up Shanglinyuan, but he did not, and he said he would know when the time came.
When will this be?
"Aren't you here to go to Linyuan?" This time, Li Zhao straightened up, without the previous teasing temptation.
"Shanglin Garden? Hehe! With you, how many places that Shanglin Garden does not have? Do you think so?" Shangguan said this inexplicably, but the meaning of his words made Li Zhao think deeply.
With you, how many Shanglin Gardens are there without?
This means that their goal is not to go to Shanglin Garden, but to something more important than Shanglin Garden. Suddenly, Li Zhao became a little clear. Their goal remains the same, it is His Majesty, but it is wrong. They just said it was for themselves.
It all started to get confusing again.
