Chapter 132 I knew it was so, why bother?
"Yes."

After hearing Xu Liang'an's doubtful voice, Liu Nirong first glanced at him curiously, and then nodded slightly.

"By taking advantage of their father's status and power, they always ask my Fish and Dragon Gang for money."

Liu Nirong's face was full of exhaustion, mixed with a strong resentment.

"It's fine if it's like in the past. Although they are greedy, at least they know that there is a long way to go, so every time they come to ask for money, they won't go too far. But today, they asked for 1 taels of silver. Don't say it is My Fish and Dragon Gang was squeezed by them and there is not much left, even if I sell my Fish and Dragon Gang directly today, I am afraid it will not be able to sell at this price."

She was also extremely helpless.

In fact, the development of the Fish and Dragon Gang could be regarded as good, but since the dragon slaying technique began to spread in the world, especially when it was promoted throughout Beiliang, the Zhong family and their people The minions, as if they were hyenas who smelled something, began to increase their pressure on people like them in an all-round way.

In fact, Wang Dashi and her had also discussed this matter before. After all, the Zhong family must have their own reasons for doing such an outrageous thing at such a critical time.

The last two people came to the conclusion that the Zhong family and all the dignitaries attached to them were probably going to run away!

That's right!

Just run away!

If it is for this reason, then everything makes sense.The reason why they were being squeezed so much during this period was probably to get the last fortune, and then prepare to run away.

Everyone is not blind!
Who doesn't know what the Zhong family has done in Lingzhou for so many years?Ever since His Royal Highness proposed the dragon slaying technique, many people speculated that the Zhong family's good life was about to come to an end.

The fact is indeed the case, as the people from the Academy began to enter the territory of Lingzhou, the people from the Zhong family continued to have various conflicts with them, as if they did not obey the discipline of Liangzhou at all.

Even a fool can figure it out, how could that His Royal Highness of Beiliang allow someone to go against him like this?
This Zhong Hongwu wants to support himself?That is simply impossible!Who in the world doesn't know how powerful that His Royal Highness the Prince of Beiliang is?What's the difference between being self-respecting in front of him and courting death?
Therefore, Liu Nirong, who has always been smart, had already had a bold guess in her heart, that is, the Zhong family might run away!
but……

Thinking of His Royal Highness the Prince of Beiliang, Liu Nirong felt that she seemed to have missed something.Almost subconsciously, she put her gaze on Xu Liang'an. Although she didn't know who this handsome man in front of her was, it seemed that she was able to get so close to Feng Nian, and they were so similar in appearance...

A bold guess appeared in Liu Nirong's mind.

"Shouldn't it be..."

Seemingly understanding the questioning expression in her eyes, Xu Liang'an smiled and said to her, "Hello Miss Liu, I'm Fengnian's brother, Xu Liang'an."

"hiss……"

Almost subconsciously, Liu Nirong took a deep breath. Liu Nirong didn't expect that the handsome man in front of her was really His Highness the Prince of Beiliang.

"Grassman Liu..."

Liu Nirong, who was just about to salute Xu Liang'an, felt an extremely gentle energy support her body that was about to bow down.

"You don't need to be too polite. Fengnian's friends are my friends, and there is no need for friends to be like this."

Without waiting for Liu Nirong to say anything more, Xu Liang'an turned his head to Xu Fengnian and said, "Go and destroy all those Lao Shizi yamen and throw them out. If the second generation ancestor of the family is the second generation ancestor, let the head of the family come, otherwise it will not be done." let go."

This sentence is easy and freehand.

Xu Fengnian naturally didn't have any objections to his elder brother's approach, and grinned at Xu Liang'an, revealing two rows of extremely white teeth: "Don't worry, let them all feel the taste of lying down." ~"

After all, he nodded to Liu Nirong first, and then the two of them walked towards the back hall together.

But Xu Liang'an and the other five continued to stand in the front hall and wait.

Soon.

Xu Fengnian's figure reappeared in the field of vision of several people, but the difference was that besides Liu Nirong this time, besides him was a strong and strong man, Wang Dashi.

And behind them.

Two young men with broken hands and feet, wearing brocade gowns, were dragged out by members of the Yulong Gang like dead dogs. There were also several people in government uniforms who also had their hands and feet broken.

"Brother Wang, these are my brother and my sister-in-law. This is Laojiu. The other two little guys are the daughter and apprentice of a friend of my brother's."

As soon as he came in front of the five people, Xu Fengnian enthusiastically introduced Xu Liang'an and the others to Wang Dashi.

After hearing his words, Wang Dashi's face immediately showed reverence, and Liu Nirong's expression was as expected.

"Grassman..."

Just as Wang Dashi was about to worship, Xu Liang'an held him up.

There was a helpless expression on his face at first, and then Xu Liang'an slowly said: "Why do you all like to do this? Since you are Fengnian's friends, then I am just Fengnian's brother, so there is no need to be polite."

Wang Dashi was originally a person with a very bold personality, otherwise he would not have been inseparable with Xu Fengnian. At this time, after hearing Xu Liang'an's words, he also said with a smile: "Then be bold!"

Xu Liangan nodded slightly.

He had a very good impression of Wang Dashi and Liu Nirong, plus their relationship with Fengnian, so it's best to be friends of the same generation!
"Come on, let's go in and talk!"

Wang Dashi made a gesture of invitation, and led Xu Liang'an and five people to walk towards the inner hall. As for the people who were dragged on the ground by Xu Fengnian, who had already been made unconscious by Xu Fengnian, he didn't even look at them much. glance.

He, Wang Dashi, was able to lead the Yulong Gang to this day. Although there is nothing worth mentioning in terms of power, he is naturally impossible to be a fool!

Now that His Royal Highness has come to Longqing County, it probably means that Zhong Hongwu's family may not have a good life!And when he came out just now, Xu Fengnian specifically reminded him that the fundamental reason why he came to Lingzhou this time was to solve Zhong Hongwu, so Wang Dashi naturally didn't know how to deal with these yamen and yamen servants who had long wanted to kill them. show mercy.

"Remember, it's not the oldest person in their family who comes, and no one can take them away."

Before Xu Liang'an took a step, he said to the two strong men of the Ichthyosaur Gang who were dragging the two yamen, a hesitant look appeared on the latter's face, but then he was slapped on the head by Wang Dashi, and laughed and scolded: " You bastard! Mr. Xu's words are no better than mine, so hurry up and do it!"

"Hey!"

The strong man responded, then with a grin, he dragged the two young men out.

……

"It's getting worse recently?"

After hearing what Wang Dashi told about the recent events in Longqing County and the Yulong Gang, a sneer could not help appearing on the corner of his mouth: "It seems that Zhong Hongwu's greed is much greater than imagined. I still can't forget to search for my last interests."

Xu Fengnian also understood that the reason why Zhong Hongwu asked the people below to do this was simply to take advantage of the fact that he was still the person in charge of Lingzhou at this time, and wanted to make a fortune in the end to get more benefits.Although he knew that Zhong Hongwu was a greedy person when he heard what his elder brother said before, but he really didn't expect that the other party had reached such a point!

He subconsciously turned his gaze to Xu Liang'an, who was just listening silently, and the latter immediately smiled and said: "It is very simple for me to deal with a scum like Zhong Hongwu, even for Lao Jiu, because his death is not serious. It will have any worse impact on Lingzhou. But I still brought you here, do you know why?"

"Because you're lazy!"

Xu Fengnian almost blurted out this sentence, but he chose to shut up very rationally.

Although Xu Liang'an looks very kind now, Xu Fengnian said that he will never forget the fear of being dominated by his brother when he was a child.Because his mother left early, the eldest sister married far away, and the second sister went to the school, Xu Xiao didn't care about him at all, so the heavy responsibility of educating him fell on Xu Liang'an, the eldest brother.

Ruler, whip...

He basically experienced all kinds of teaching aids that teachers use to punish students when he was young, so now he has no thoughts of dying at all.

After thinking about it for a while, he said half-jokingly: "It can't be for me to take over, right?"

"Snapped!"

Just as Xu Fengnian's voice fell, there was an incomparably clear voice in the air. When everyone was extremely puzzled, they saw Xu Fengnian squatting on the ground with his head covered.

"I think you are drifting away."

Xu Liang'an still had that light look in his eyes.

"Although your strength has been greatly improved after traveling with Old Li Sword God, you can't afford anything with your heart."

Xu Liang'an didn't shy away from the fact that outsiders were present here.

Without seeing any movement from him, the steaming teacup on the table automatically floated in front of him, he stretched out his hand to gently hold the teacup, and took a sip.

"I've told you many times before, never just look at the surface of things."

"Let me ask you, what is Zhong Hongwu's biggest reliance?"

"The biggest reliance?"

At this time, Xu Fengnian had already returned to his seat and sat down. Hearing another question from Xu Liang'an, he finally began to think seriously.

If it is understood according to the normal situation, then Zhong Hongwu's biggest reliance must be the Beiliang cavalry in his hands. After all, Lingzhou is located in the southernmost part of the entire Beiliang, only adjacent to the Western Regions and Liyang, so the deployment of cavalry has always been strong. .

But I don't know if it's because of being educated just now, Xu Fengnian always feels that the answer to this question is not so simple.

Then suddenly he felt a flash of inspiration.

"Relationship! Relationship network!"

"For so many years, Dad has basically kept Lingzhou in a free-range state, and has never intervened in the specific management of Lingzhou, so if we say that Zhong Hongwu's greatest reliance is the relationship network he has freely operated for many years! "

After hearing his answer, Xu Liang'an nodded in satisfaction.

"Right or wrong, it's actually not that appropriate to say that the relationship network is actually his network of influence. Relationships, there are ups and downs, and equals, but in the power network, Zhong Hongwu is the absolute core, the absolute apex, there is no Anyone can compare to him."

"This is the most important thing for Zhong Hongwu. Do you think he will give up these things so easily?"

"of course not."

"good."

Xu Liang'an slowly stood up from the chair, and said under the watchful eyes of Wang Dashi, Liu Nirong and others: "Although Zhong Hongwu is indeed greedy and lawless by nature, he was killed from the dead after all. , so you won’t be greedy for this benefit in the end.”

After saying this, everyone, including Xu Fengnian, looked puzzled.After all, if it is according to what Xu Liang'an said, why did Ya Nei and others suddenly start trying to squeeze the Fish and Dragon Gang?
Xu Liang'an naturally knew the doubts in their hearts, so he chuckled and said, "It's nothing more than wanting to continue to sit in the current position by using the method that he thinks is justified."

Having said all that, if other people still don't understand what Xu Liang'an means, they would be too stupid.

"You mean they want to use the money to interfere with people's votes?"

Jiang Ni looked curious and couldn't help but speak.

But Xu Liang'an curled his lips noncommittally: "Otherwise, the only option left for him is to completely rebel from Beiliang, and then everything he has now will be completely lost."

Xu Liang'an didn't believe that Zhong Hongwu didn't know that he or other people on Qingliang Mountain would come to Lingzhou just for him.

But since the other party has not escaped until now, it shows that there are nothing but two plans in his heart.

Slaughter by the neck, or use a method similar to "threatening the emperor to make the princes".

You Xu Xiao want to kill me?Or are you, Xu Liang'an, trying to kill me?Then I will let the common people vote me to be the controller of this Lingzhou. Didn't you say that the name is justified?Then I'll see how you kill me justifiably.

It is naturally impossible for Zhong Hongwu to do anything that would cause his neck to be slaughtered, so the only thing left is the second choice!

Xu Liang'an had long expected that he would make such a choice. When he heard the news about the spies on Qingliang Mountain, he probably guessed that Zhong Hongwu was deliberately delaying the time. Get his own vote.

After hearing what Wang Dashi said here, he became more certain of his previous guess.

Thinking of this, Xu Liang'an sneered in his heart, he was still old after all, it seemed that this Zhong Hongwu still hoped to spend his old age in peace and stability.

but……

If I had known this, why did I have to?
