"What... do you mean?" He Nan frowned.
Cai Meng laughed loudly. After laughing for a moment, he regained his composure: "Isn't this obvious?"
During the period when the two were wrestling, Cai Meng had been puzzled by one thing - He Nan was a woman, so what?
The woman Bu Hongqiang was like a lead between He Nan and the Cai family, but as the situation heated up, she disappeared from the Cai family's sight like an outsider and stayed away from the center of the whirlpool.
In Cai Meng's mind, the answer that is most likely to be close to the truth is "lover". Only when the relationship between the two goes beyond ordinary friends will He Nan be in constant trouble with him. Ever since, Cai Meng followed this idea and deployed an "outsider" move, that is, using "fire" as bait to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Cai Meng was dubbed a "ruthless man" by various people in various descriptions, and he definitely lived up to his name. He was betting his wealth and life against He Nan - the bet was that they would both perish together.
The only one who was not arrested tonight was Cai Ziyan, who was Cai Meng's trump card. His purpose was very simple, which was to kill Bu Hongqiang and make He Nan pay the price.
Mr. Cai's martial arts may not be considered brilliant, but it is more than enough to deal with Baicai Xishi, a girl who has no strength to restrain a chicken.
"...Cai Ziyan...went to see Sister Hongqiang?" He Nan's eyes were as wide as bells.
"Congratulations! You will pay the price for your arrogance, stupidity and overestimation of your capabilities!" Cai Meng's mood suddenly became excited, and he laughed wildly, as if crazy.
After staring at the crazy Cai Meng for a few breaths, He Nan also laughed as if he was going crazy. He lit the tobacco slowly and nodded: "Since you said so...then I'm relieved. "
…………
At the same time, in a village on the outskirts of Fuyang County.
"Now... have you seen it?" Bai Wugeng wiped the blood on his hand with a piece of white silk.
Cai Ziyan, who was face to face with him and kept a distance, could be considered a "white-faced young boy", but he was dwarfed by Bai Wugeng.
About a quarter of an hour ago, Cai Ziyan led his men to Bu Hongqiang's home, knocked Bu Hongqiang's mother and two younger brothers unconscious, and forced Bu Hongqiang into a desperate situation.
But now, Cai Ziyan is the only one who can breathe.
"He Nan and I are different. He is a much softer person than he looks." Bai Wugeng slowly approached Young Master Cai and picked up one of his arms: "I can do what he can't do. "
"Wait!" At this critical moment, Mr. Cai suddenly stopped: "How much money He Nan gave you, I will pay double! No, three times! Ten times! You help me kill him!"
Cai Ziyan is not stupid. Although Bai Wugeng entered Bu Hongqiang's house and started killing without saying a word, killing the Cai family's slaves one by one, Cai Ziyan also knew very well that those who could appear here and now , only the people sent by He Nan.
But of course this vulgar begging speech couldn't save him - he was the fifth prince of the Sheng Kingdom, so why did he care about mere money?
Perhaps because he was in a good mood, Bai Wugeng unexpectedly responded with a rare response: "Ah... Do you think I look like someone who is short of money?"
After that, Bai Wugeng broke one of Cai Ziyan's arms lightly.
It's not "cut off" or "break off", but "break off". Cai Ziyan's arm was broken off from the elbow in a "recurved" posture, leaving only a small piece of skin and flesh connected, and half of the white bones were directly exposed. into the air.
The fifth prince was someone who had personally been on the battlefield, but at this moment he heard a miserable howl that he had never heard on the battlefield.
…………
A few days later.
"Young Master Bai's life-saving grace will be unforgettable." Bu Hongqiang bowed towards Bai Wugeng who was sitting in the second seat, and then said an extremely subtle line: "The little girl has nothing to repay, so she can only promise her with her body..."
"It's better to avoid making promises or anything like that." The fifth prince waved his hand and suppressed what Baicai Xishi was about to say, "You should also know that I saved you to make He Nan's plan more thorough. to continue, not for any other reason."
Bu Hongqiang also studied in the school, and was very good at it. Of course, she knew etiquette and justice, so she turned around and thanked He Nan who was sitting at the head.
In fact, the memory of the two of them studying in the same class is a bit vague, but after all, they are not as different as two complete strangers. In addition, in recent days, He Nan has made many arrangements for Bu Hongqiang's family. , so Bu Hongqiang's tone towards He Nan was a bit more affectionate than that towards the fifth prince, but it was just the specific content she said - anyway, what she said to Qi Dan was "I can only agree with you personally", and when she came to He Nan, she was with " "I will be a cow or a horse in the next life" is pretty much what it means.
"We are all human beings, why is there such a huge gap..." He Nan couldn't help but think to himself. In fact, he didn't necessarily care how Bu Hongqiang wanted to thank him - after all, no matter whether he had conflicts with Cai Ziyan at the beginning, Whether the entanglement with the Cai family is getting deeper and deeper, it is all based on his mentality of "drawing a sword to help when the road is rough", rather than specifically for Bu Hongqiang.
Even if he were a stranger, He Nan should have acted like this - but it was precisely this that caused Cai Meng to misjudge, causing all his plans to fail. That was an unexpected surprise.
"If there is a gap... then it is obviously your problem, not mine." The fifth prince smiled, "Didn't martial arts novels teach you that heroes save beauties?"
"Hmph...it's just some third-rate storytelling that writes about the love between men and women." He Nansui said with a stiff mouth, pretending to be indignant: "The destiny of a man is to control the world."
The fifth prince shrugged: "Then you go write a book about fighting for the world. I will make sure that all the booksellers and paper dealers in the capital will vigorously promote your book."
Faced with this imminent sarcasm, He Nan couldn't help but pretend to be angry: "Do you believe that I will write you down first in my book?"
The two bickered for a long time, and finally drove away Bu Hongqiang, who was sitting there bored but unable to say anything. After Bu Hongqiang left, the two of them quickly returned to normal.
"Your matter has been settled. Now...it's time to do my matter." Qi Dan tapped the table with two fingers.
He Nan stood up and walked to the window, closed the window quietly, and then responded: "Of course it has to be done, but it will take time."
Time is an eternal topic. Qi Dan is not short of time, but obviously not too much.
If we rely on time to win, then Qi Danda can survive his brothers one after another. After all, there is a big age difference between him and those brothers! But let alone the prince's eldest son who is already the age of the prince, even the heirs of the third prince Qi Jun can speak.
After thinking about it, Qi Dan gave He Nan a very suggestive ultimatum: "I have more time than my brothers, but not necessarily as much as my nephews, and... I don't have a son now."
Sure enough, after hearing these words, He Nan suddenly changed his tone: "You have to know that you are the one who directly controls the situation. I am only responsible for cutting off their wings for you. This kind of thing does not mean that the faster it is. The better, the pursuit is 'synchronization'."
After thinking for a moment, He Nan spit out a mouthful of mist, with a strange expression: "For you and me, the current situation, even if it is not great, is still a 'little good' - your third brother's enemy is overt and we are hidden, so there is plenty of time to find out. What is the deal between him and those foreigners? If he is really the driving force behind the Chamber of Commerce, then you will have more excuses to kick him off the ring in an upright manner; your second brother is a straight man, and he is a commoner like you, and in the end The important thing is that he can't deal with both brothers at the same time. It's much easier to use him than your third brother who is more cunning than a fox; as for your eldest brother..." At this point, He Nan suddenly stopped.
"Huh?" Qi Dan gave him a confused look.
After hesitating for a long time, He Nan finally said with difficulty: "His biggest supporter... is my master."
Of course Qi Dan knew that Li Zhanchun had been the prince's tutor for decades and an important minister in two dynasties. He was a loyal supporter of the princelings both emotionally and logically.
But by saying this, He Nan undoubtedly made his position clear to Qi Dan - he could help Qi Dan wield the sword against the King of Chu and King Qin, but he would never point the sword at the prince, because that would be equivalent to He Nan's Turn your back on your master.
"I will help you pave a way to the decisive battle, but as for whether you can win the decisive battle...that has nothing to do with me." He Nan clenched his fists fiercely and looked at Qi Dan's His eyes penetrated the layers of smoke, but were unusually firm: "Even if you threaten me with Zhao'er by then, I won't do anything unnecessary."
"Haha..." The fifth prince also stood up, parting the heavy atmosphere in the room, and stood next to He Nan: "I don't need to worry about it... I am naturally cultivating my power - but you are just like that Are you confident that you can help me reach the 'final battle'?"
"That has nothing to do with my confidence." He Nan's eyes changed suddenly and he quickly changed the subject. "It's better to talk about the power you cultivated yourself..."
Perhaps in order to arouse He Nan's desire to win, although Qi Dan concealed the Shunfeng Escort Bureau, he was full of praise for the new counselors he recruited, but He Nan gave a different evaluation: "Listen, You seem to be very capable...but you seem to be lacking a figure who can sit firmly in the military camp."
The person currently serving as the number one counselor under Qi Dan is naturally Ji Jushan. But obviously this person's weakness is as pointed out by the mad genius Shi Luo. Compared with his intelligence, he is not as quick as Shi Luo. Compared with his character, he lacks Lu Chongya's step-by-step attitude. And when it comes to management, The overall situation seems to be insufficient and stretched, and it is not as comfortable as Zhang Wenwen.
In general, he is a person who is good at everything but falls short of everything. If a person has eight or nine points of ability in each item, then he can be said to be "comprehensive", but if he has only six or nine points of ability, he is "comprehensive". To put it in perspective, that would be “mediocre”.
"Listen to your tone...Are you ready to boast again?" Qi Dan teased.
Unexpectedly, He Nan's reaction was beyond Qi Dan's expectations: "No...I'm not the type who can sit on one side and be the mainstay, but if you need it, I can recommend one to you."
"Who?" Qi Dan was immediately interested. It was rare for a guy like He Nan to give such a high evaluation.
"It's not that he's a famous person...a friend who took me in for a night on the way to escape." He Nan smiled, "Then the old rules...guess the riddle - the geese fall to the northwest, and the Confucian scholars abandon their cars and sail. , it’s not that easy water is easy to cross, it’s really a dilemma.”
"How do you want me to guess... The answer to the mystery in the past was closely related to both of us, but now you have created a mystery that only you know the answer to..." Qi Dan said helplessly.
"Then let me give you another hint...it contains his address, identity and name." He Nan said happily: "If you can't guess...it means you have no fate with him!"
…………
The fifth prince had bigger things to do, so he would not stay in this remote county for too long. He brought a question to He Nan when he came, and took away a mystery when he left.
It's time for He Nan to use his "inexplicable self-confidence" to catch up on the progress.
The source of He Nan's "confidence" is, of course, his status as a "double agent."
Don't forget, the decisive battle he described for Qi Dan was the decisive battle between Qi Dan and the prince. This party must be Qi Dan, and the other party must also be the prince.
The heavy responsibility of being a teacher is naturally closely related to this matter; and the future he designs is certainly the same.
He Nan, and the behemoth behind him, were not paving the way for one person, but were paving the way for two brothers who were enemies of each other.
Qi Dan... Do you know now? Who is planning to use your knife to kill those who deserve to be killed?
