Chapter 73 Lord, this is a big pit(2/2)
Mr. Mengchang rolled up his sleeves, revealing his lean and jade-white wrists. He leaned forward slightly, took out a wooden ladle from the boiling iron pot, scooped out hot water, and said, "What do you want to say?"
?”
He could tell that she had something to talk to him about.
Chen Baiqi stared at his hands, and the dense heat blurred his long brows, and he took a step back involuntarily.
She could clearly see what had happened just now, so when she saw his actions, she wondered if he would just give her a ladle of boiling water if she annoyed him with her unpleasant words.
At this time, Meng Changjun happened to turn his head to look at her. Seeing her serious look and straight back, like a serious little old man, without any of the charming and tenderness of a woman alone with a man, he couldn't help but smile.
It's interesting to say that she was a sister-in-law, but she always used to talk to him like a man. She didn't feel awkward, but he... actually thought it was normal.
Chen Baiqi made sure he was standing in a safe position, so he reorganized his words and said, "You actually want this city, don't you?"
Mengchang Jun seemed to have never thought that she would ask such a question. He blinked in surprise, but the next second, he narrowed his eyes deeply.
"how you said that?"
Hearing his answer, Chen Baiqi still didn't understand why his vague guess was right.
"Are you willing to take what you want in such a way that is harmful to others?" Chen Baiqi's face looked a little ugly.
Because she suddenly had a very bold but creepy guess.
When Mengchang heard this, he was silent for a moment and then suddenly smiled.
"However, I want to develop a prosperous and flexible business in this city, but it is a pity that the King of Qi is stingy and only cares about the blessing of his children and grandchildren. It can only be held tightly in the hands of others, and only when it rots and is abandoned, will it become a new one.
The cost is fair.”
Chen Baiqi felt a chill in his heart and couldn't help but said: "So all the changes in this house are happening according to your wishes?"
What about thugs, cholera, and roads being blocked? Could it be that all the conspiracies were hatched by him alone?
In fact, there was no one else or any other force trying to assassinate him?
Mengchangjun raised his eyes and looked at her. He liked her eyes very much, especially at this moment, they were so dark and round, yet full of energy, so kind, serene, yet full of alertness.
There were some things he didn't tell anyone, but she was so smart that she slowly figured him out.
But he shook his head.
"Before I went to Pingyuan County, I had been waiting for an opportunity, but I didn't expect that the opportunity would eventually be given to me by someone else. But I didn't expect that when I was plotting against others, others were also secretly plotting against me.
My dear, the situation in the city is getting more and more complicated. There are one, two, and three... some that cannot be seen clearly, more and more forces are coming in, including the Qin State, the Chu State, and even the Zhao State.
.”
Chen Baiqi was stunned, truly surprised.
"You...you know everything?"
It turns out that they were the driving force behind the incident.
"Of course they have their handiwork in it." In fact, there are some things he didn't say. Now he is cooperating with Qin.
There were many parties in the Qin State, and those who cooperated with him only borrowed his hand. Naturally, those who got the news were that some people did not want him to live.
I just don’t know what role Chu State plays in it?
The State of Zhao also joined in because of the intervention of the State of Chu.
The current situation is like a pot of porridge, and everyone has their own goals in it.
Chen Baiqi now knew that the matter was far beyond her ability to solve.
"You must take this city?"
"Things that were originally planned have changed now. Maybe... I really need your ability." He dropped the ladle, stood up and walked closer, holding her cold little face, his eyes sparkling: "You are
I don’t have to ask who the person is, where they come from, or who sent them, but... little demon, don’t betray me, otherwise I will bite you like this..." He pulled off the cloth on her face.
, biting a piece of tender meat on her cheek: "Chew you into my belly."
Chen Baiqi trembled.
It's not for pain, but for cold.
She pushed him away quickly.
He spread his arms, smiled, and let go of her smoothly, his behavior surprisingly obedient.
Chen Baiqi secretly took a deep breath. Now that she knew all this, she could leave with peace of mind. Anyway, there was a case in the belly of this monster and he probably wouldn't be dead for a while.
"In this case, you need the help of disciple Yuelu even more."
"Of course, the purpose of cooperating with them is to successfully win over people's hearts and make it easier to communicate with others in the future. After all, I don't just want an empty city."
Moreover, using the relationship card in the hands of Chief Panan of Yuelu Academy will also be a big help for him in the future.
Although, he had actually secretly inserted many of his confidants into the city to make arrangements, step by step, to seize the business connections in this area.
"In this case, now they need the Lord's assistance, clothing, food, manpower, and even medicinal materials." She said directly.
Mengchang Jun smiled and said: "The things they need have been slowly transported from the village. Haha, I originally wanted those arrogant Yuelu teachers and students to come to Haosheng to ask for help from me, but it's a pity that I gave up.
They got such a good lobbyist."
Only then did Chen Baiqi realize that he had already made plans this morning and was just waiting for people to ask for help.
So, who is stupid in this world?
No one is stupid.
The people in Yuelu didn't want to bow their heads, so they simply let her do it.
Mengchangjun planned to take advantage of her and didn't want to offend her badly, so he also moved down her ladder.
I remembered what Mo Jing said just now when he approached her as a lobbyist.
Call her kind? Just?
Haha, Mo Jing, you are just a big-tailed wolf wearing the skin of a loyal dog!
