Between the river, in the southeast outside the county Lezhi city, there is a tall dock fort, the water flows from outside the fort, forming a moat outside the dock fort, in front of the tall fort gate, four Zhuang Ding guards with swords, the flag fluttering above the fort gate is embroidered with a big king character. Everyone knows that Lezhi or Hejian, the real owner of the Wang family's dock fort.

It was the beginning of summer, the castle was full of green trees, wafting with the fragrance of lilacs, in the garden, the green waves were rippling, the red carp was swaying in the clear water, the willow branches were reflected in the water, and a white-haired old man sat in a small pavilion, with a long fishing rod stretched out on the water.

A sturdy man walked slowly, the man's footsteps were steady, and he didn't look fast, but after a few steps, he arrived outside the small pavilion. Bow in front of the cloth-clothed old man outside the small pavilion, and then hand over the news brought by Du Niao to the old man, and then step aside. The old man looked at it, frowned slightly, and looked up at the old man who was fishing.

Taking a silent breath, the old man in cloth walked up slowly, and saluted the back of the old man and said, "Ancestor, the third master has sent a letter again." ”

The old man did not move, as if he had not heard, and the old man did not speak, but quietly stepped aside and stood with his head down.

The fishing line gently reverberated on the water surface, the float moved slightly, and then moved a few times, the old man lifted the fishing rod, it was empty, but if you looked closely, the hook was actually straight, the old man seemed to be very disappointed, sighed slightly, and put bait on the hook, and threw it into the water again.

After waiting quietly for a while, the old ancestor spoke: "What is he urging?"

He met Liu Han again, Liu Han was still on that condition, he didn't dare to decide, please ask the ancestor to decide. The old man said.

The old ancestor, the ancestor of the Wang family, is also the ancestor of Lezhi City, the ancestor of Hejian County.

The Wang family, for more than a thousand years, the Wang family has been deeply rooted in Lezhi, step by step, expanding to Hejian and Jizhou, hundreds of years, the Wang family has produced several queens, more than 10 Chinese book orders, dozens of Shangshu Assassin History, but in the past ten years, the Wang family has shrunk in the river, and the children of the Wang family have not held the position above the history of the assassination.

Shilin was quietly discussing, and the Wang family was in decline.

But the old man standing on the side didn't think so at all, the Wang family has not declined, and it will not decline, the reason why it is the decision of the ancestors to lie down for ten years is the decision of the ancestors, and the ancestors will not be wrong.

The old man has an almost blind worship of the old ancestor, and for dozens of miles, the old ancestor's decision-making has never been wrong.

Let him continue the conversation and tell Liu Han that the ships of the shipping company cannot cross the Yellow River. The old ancestor said calmly.

"Yes. The old man answered, and turned to look at the young man, who bowed down and took the order, and turned to leave.

"Is there any news from the prince?"

The young man turned and stepped forward, bowed and replied, "Still not." ”

The old ancestor looked at the water surface silently, the float was very quiet, a red carp swam by the side, his brows frowned slightly, and after a while, he said: "Urge, tell the Guo family, to strengthen the will of the prince." ”

The young man left, but the old man still stood behind the old ancestor, and after a while, the old ancestor lifted the fishing rod, and the bait was gone, and the old ancestor put on the bait again and threw it in again.

"Where is the seventh?"

The old man hurriedly replied respectfully: "The day before yesterday, there was news that the Seventh Master had arrived in Jiangling, and it was going well. ”

It's going well, which means it doesn't go unnoticed.

The old ancestor didn't say anything more, still staring at the water.

After a while, the old man asked tentatively: "Old ancestor, the third master has been frozen, this Liu Han is very tough, if it goes on like this, is it okay?"

The ancestor was silent for a while, stood up, sat down at the table, poured a glass of water, and looked up at the bright sky.

"It's really hot this year," the old ancestor sighed, the old man was slightly stunned, looked up, nodded and said, "Yes, do you want to let the kitchen boil mung bean soup." ”

"Hehe, you!" the old ancestor smiled, he was very old, but he looked very well, his face was full of red light, and he did not see any aging.

"Imperial capital, let's do it first," the old ancestor said in a deep voice, which was actually an admission that he had made a mistake in his judgment of the imperial capital: "This Liu Han, hehe, the old man actually looked away, or let him be proud for the time being." ”

The old man frowned slightly, the old ancestor seemed to notice, he didn't ask, smiled calmly, and then said: "Let the third child continue to talk with Liu Han, and in addition, contact the imperial historians of the Imperial History Observatory to find an opportunity to impeach Chen Xuan and the King of Yanping County." ”

"Yes. The old man agreed.

Impeachment of Chen Xuan, this is easy to understand, but the impeachment of the king of Yanping County, why is this?

The old ancestor didn't explain, and he didn't dare to ask, this must be the result of the old ancestor's overall consideration.

The old man didn't dare to sit down and write in front of the old ancestor, so he took two steps back and went out, the old ancestor drank two sips of tea, and then sat on the edge of the pond, looking at the fishing line hanging on the water, and showed a meaningful smile.

Wang Fen received news from Hejian, and he also didn't understand, Gong Xiu took the book and looked at it over and over, as if he wanted to see something from it.

Wang Fen was in a bitter mood, Liu Han's words were like a poisonous snake, and he couldn't stop biting his heart during this time, sure enough, the old ancestor still asked him to continue to negotiate, but how can this be discussed? Liu Han's attitude is already very clear, and the palace will not agree to make concessions, Liu Han can only talk.

The danger of consuming like this is not Liu Han, since Liu Han has hinted that he can play with him, but the problem is that there is another person on the other end of the negotiation table who has never shown up, this person is called Gongli.

If the palace loses patience and forces Liu Han to do it, even if Liu Han is unwilling, he can only do it, and he Wang Fen will become the next victim.

"What does the old ancestor think!" Gong Xiu finally put down the book and asked with a frown.

Wang Fen shook his head, with his knowledge of his father, he would not tell anyone until the matter was mature.

"Next, what should we do?" Gong Xiu asked again, Wang Fen looked at the magnolia blooming in the yard in silence, his heart was a little desolate, Gong Xiu didn't know what he was thinking, and asked again.

"What else can I do?" Wang Fen smiled bitterly and sighed: "If only Uncle Seventh was here, throw this stall to him, and let's go back to the river." ”

Gong Xiu was also a little frustrated, from the current point of view, they didn't have any chips in their hands, Liu Han's attitude was extremely tough, and he didn't give in half a step, how can this go on!

Such an aimless stalemate frustrated everyone.

When the two of them were unable to do so, the next person sent a handbook that had just arrived, and Wang Fen took it and looked at it, his face even more gloomy.

"Let Huang Shen go to Guanggu in Qingzhou?!" Gong Xiu couldn't help but call out, Wang Fen was resentful in his heart, and Liu Han's predictions were being fulfilled one by one.

Yellow ginseng!

"Invite Senior Brother Huang here. Wang Fen didn't say anything, Gong Xiu frowned, and hurriedly stopped: "Don't be busy first, Brother Wang, let's talk to the ancestor first, Huang Shen will leave again, and our strength in the imperial capital will be even weaker." The strength that Liu Han is showing now is no longer something we can resist, and if Huang Shen leaves again, our strength will be even weaker. ”

Wang Fen let out a long sigh and waved his hand outside, and then said in a low voice: "Since the old ancestor has decided, is it useful to talk about it! Brother Gong, the old ancestor must have a plan, so let him go." ”

Huang Shen came over quickly, Wang Fen got up, and handed him the book he had just received, and Huang Shen was quite puzzled after reading it: "Brother Wang, why is this?

Wang Fen smiled bitterly: "Senior brother, it is estimated that Guanggu has something important, and I invite Brother Huang to go." ”

"I'm leaving, what should I do with this imperial capital?" Huang Shen's brows furrowed even tighter, and there was a little reluctance in his expression: "What should you do?"

"Don't I still have a great-brother?" Wang Fen smiled reluctantly: "Senior brother, go and go back quickly." ”

Huang Shen was very hesitant, his brows were twisted, he was not a member of the Wang family, but a guest of the Wang family, and he was invited by Wang Fen to be a guest of the family, in the Wang family, he belonged to the series of the third master, although the ancestor of the Wang family could give orders, he could not listen.

But there are consequences for not listening, maybe the consequences are not borne by him, but Wang Fen will definitely not be able to run.

"Okay. Huang Shen nodded: "I'll leave tomorrow." ”

Wang Fen smiled and walked out with him, and said as he walked: "When I arrived in Guanggu, the old ancestor may have sent someone to wait there, senior brother, although rest assured, there is still a great brother here, besides, I also have a cultivation, although I can't catch up with the senior brother, I can barely protect myself, besides, this is the imperial capital, and it is not so easy for Liu Han to deal with me." ”

Huang Shen nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll try to go back as soon as possible." ”

The two of them talked and arrived at the door, Wang Fen stopped, Huang Shen hugged his fist at him, and then turned around and left, Wang Fen stood under the eaves, looked at his back, and couldn't help sneering.

"Send a post to Liu Han, tomorrow, I will invite him to drink in Baiyi Garden. Wang Fen said.

Gong Xiu sighed, turned around and went out.

Now that Kawama has replied, it is time to meet, and the negotiations must continue.

The next day, it was still in the small building of Sanniang in Baiyi Garden, where the latest negotiations were located.

Sanniang served tea to the two of them and then retreated, leaving the three of them upstairs.

Liu Han didn't speak, drinking tea silently, Wang Fen didn't know how to speak, after talking about it a few times, he knew Liu Han's toughness, a word was wrong, this person got up and left, and didn't give him any face at all.

Gong Xiu smiled bitterly in her heart, and could only speak first: "Mr. Liu, this time we came, it was the last time, please let Mr. let me go." ”

Liu Han looked at him, and then at Wang Fen, Wang Fen's smile was more ugly than crying, Liu Han shook his head slightly: "Why, the letter from your ancestor is back, and it still maintains the original intention." ”

"Brother Liu," Gong Xiu's posture was lowered: "The waterway of the Yellow River is very wide, you have to swallow it in one bite, and you are not afraid of eating, everyone can go." ”

"Whether you can eat or not, that's my business, so I won't bother Brother Gong," Liu Han said lightly: "Although the Yellow River waterway is big, it can't accommodate many boats, Brother Gong, this boat can't run around, it's wrong, and something will happen." ”

Speaking of this, Liu Han lowered his face: "Brother Wang, I think it's better for the two of us to talk." ”

Gong Xiu's face turned red, staring at Liu Han, Wang Fen sighed: "Brother Gong, you go downstairs to drink tea first, and I'll talk to Mr. Liu." ”

Gong Xiu stood up hatefully, hugged her fists at Liu Han, turned around and left.

After Gong embroidered down, Wang Fencai sighed, and Liu Han looked at him silently.
