Chapter 251 Waiting for his explanation
In order to promote King Xing to the throne, Wang Qiong has paid so much and made so many efforts to get to this point. No more accidents are allowed.
Although Pei Xuanjing's affairs are beyond his control, the covenant between the two parties is still there, and the other party also needs to promote a new king to the throne as soon as possible to achieve its goal.
It can be said that they still have common interests. Even if there is any problem, Wang Qiong and the others can only suppress it temporarily and leave it to be discussed in the future.
"Hmph, maybe Pei Xuanjing dared to act like this today because I was sure that I would not dare to fall out with him due to the situation." Wang Qiong snorted coldly and said.
Gu Ji and Wang Boan looked at each other and didn't answer, because they had already guessed this in their hearts.
Wang Qiong glanced at the two people, changed the subject, and asked Wang Bo'an: "You just said that you would wait for Pei Xuanjing to explain to us next. What do you think?"
Although He had an idea in his mind, but he would not express his position easily. Instead, he would wait for Wang Boan to speak.
Wang Boan said calmly: "If the other party has an explanation for us, then it will first indicate an attitude. The other party is still interested in cooperating. We can make some demands to make up for the loss, and we can even discuss with them about this. There are many controversial points; but if there is no explanation, it means that the other party Everything they said before is just deception. In the final analysis, they are just trying to take advantage of us."
Although Wang Boan has not finished speaking, his attitude is already very clear. If Pei Xuanjing really does not cooperate sincerely, he is just taking advantage of us. , then the positions of both of them will change from friends to enemies.
The three of them were silent, and they all understood that the decision of whether they were enemies or friends was actually in the hands of Pei Xuanjing.
Gu Ji prayed to God for blessing in his heart, and said secretly: Brother Pei, don’t let Mr. Gu down!
Wang Qiong has been an official for decades. He has been in a high position all his life and has become indifferent to glory, wealth, life and death. For him, his biggest wish for the rest of his life is to complete the plan that he has spent more than ten years working on.
Not to mention Wang Bo'an, who not only wrote books on martial arts and had countless disciples, but also entered the first-level realm in martial arts, with unfathomable strength and a long life.
If the world really revives one day, with his talent, if he wants to step into the spiritual realm, he will be able to do so easily, without any difficulty at all.
On the other hand, Gu Ji, although he now claims to have a high official position and holds great power, as he grows older, his body has already aged, and death is almost visible and tangible to him.
So, among the three of them, he is the one who desires immortality the most.
Perhaps Gu Ji's prayer was answered. At this moment, a voice came from outside the study.
"Who dares to break into the residence of the Minister of War at night without authorization!"
"The poor Taoist Shenxiao sect Yu Zhenzi was entrusted by the sect master to deliver a message to the Minister."
The three of them exchanged glances with each other, and the expressions on their faces softened a lot.
Wang Qiong said: "Let this Taoist priest come in!"
"Yes, the head of the family!"
A moment later, Yu Zhenzi, wearing a Taoist robe, walked into the study. , presenting the letter with both hands.
"Yu Zhenzi came to deliver the message on the order of the sect leader."
"Thank you!" Wang Qiong took the letter with both hands.
Although he was secretly extremely annoyed with Pei Xuanjing's actions, he would not be rude in front of Yu Zhenzi. This is a common problem among those who have been in power for a long time. They are not willing to show their joy and anger in their faces.
People who are unwilling to show their emotions and anger are civil servants like Wang Qiong who are scholars, but warriors like that who are from the guards are not so well-educated.
Jiang Bin sat in the main seat, still wearing the same Feiyu suit he had worn during the day, with a cold face and said nothing. Because of his cold attitude, the air in the entire hall seemed to have dropped a bit.
Pei Xuanjing's actions today made Jiang Bin feel hugely humiliated. Since he became the late emperor's confidant, who else in the world would dare to humiliate him like this except the late emperor.
Even though the late emperor has passed away now, as the commander of the Jinyi Guards, he has countless masters under his command, many party members, and is very powerful in the court. Both Wang Qiong, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, and Yang Tinghe, the former chief assistant, want to win over him and show their support. good. What kind of thing is he, Pei Xuanjing!
He’s just a guy who got so lucky that he dares to humiliate himself like this!
You must know that when he was in Tiandu, he was very attracted to Pei Xuanjing. Even if he hadn't been merciful at the beginning, the other party would have died in Xuan Mansion.
Now that he, Pei Xuanjing, once gained power, he did not want to repay his kindness and dared to humiliate himself. This is simply unreasonable!
Snap!
The more Jiang Bin thought about it, the angrier he became. He angrily smashed the teacup in his hand on the ground, causing the tea to splash and pieces to fly.
"Sir, please calm down!"
The guards in royal robes around them quickly knelt on the ground.
“Pei Xuanjing!”
His eyes flashed coldly, and he repeated Pei Xuanjing's name through gritted teeth.
"Sir!"
At this moment, Xu Tai and Li Cong, the two commanders of Jinyiwei, walked into the hall and saluted Jiang Bin respectfully.
"You guys go down first." Jiang Bin suppressed the anger in his heart, waved the guards away, and then said in a deep voice: "Is the matter done?"
The two nodded, Xu Tai said: "Please rest assured, my brothers will handle everything from beginning to end personally, and there will never be any clues left."
"Okay!" A smile appeared on Jiang Bin's face, and he felt relieved.
At the same time, I secretly regretted that I was also obsessed with Yang Tinghe at the beginning. I boarded the other party's pirate ship and agreed to support the other party in recommending the grandson of King Anshan to succeed him.
It’s just that no one expected that the chief assistant, who had been in the court for decades longer than him, turned out to be a blood demon of the demon sect. It was simply unimaginable.
After Yang Tinghe's identity was revealed by Pei Xuanjing at the Great Court meeting today, Jiang Bin felt like he was falling into an ice cave, but he still held on to some hope. If Yang Tinghe could escape smoothly, then he would still have some opportunities to turn around. room.
But no one expected that such a waste as Yang Tinghe would be captured by Pei Xuanjing, without any room for backhand.
That's why he later took great risks to stand up and wanted to capture Yang Tinghe, which would be beneficial whether he killed or released him. Unexpectedly, not only did he not succeed, he was also insulted by Pei Xuanjing.
Li Cong hesitated to speak: "It's just."
"Just what?" Jiang Bin's eyelids twitched and he asked with a bad premonition.
Li Cong whispered: "It's just that Lin Qianshi seemed to be very concerned about this matter and sent people to investigate, but he was almost discovered. Based on his understanding of Jin Yiwei, if he really investigates in detail, I'm afraid Many of our concealments have no effect."
"Well" Jiang Bin pondered for a while, and then said after a long time: "I can only make arrangements regarding Lin Qian's matter."
In recent years, Lin Qingyi had gained considerable limelight in front of the late emperor due to his considerable contributions. Although he didn't say it on the surface, he had been suppressing the other party secretly, intentionally or unintentionally, and was unwilling to let the other party get promoted too quickly.
Now that he heard Lin Qingyi’s actions again, Jiang Bin couldn’t help but feel disgusted. Decided to find a reason to send the other party away first, and wait for the situation to calm down before considering how to deal with it.
After the two of them left, Jiang Bin sat alone in the hall, his eyes flashing.
The next step will be to see how King Xing will treat himself this way after he succeeds to the throne. He may need to plan a way out.
