Chapter 17
Birds of a feather flock together.
People with different paths will never conspire against each other.
Those who share the same interests are those who share the same ideals.
Some people work together for their ideals, some work hard for their careers, some support each other life and death out of loyalty, and even more people stick to their lives for true love.
Fate brings us together unexpectedly; faith brings many people together.
People are group animals and always like to travel together. However, not all those who travel together are sincere. More people just go together to achieve a common goal. Regardless of money, beauty, power and reputation, as long as there is
Desires are pursued by people. Many people cannot get what they want on their own, so they must come together for the common benefit.
People are always divided into good and evil. Good people mostly stay together for faith, while evil people mostly stay together for profit.
Although the fifth line does not like to act with women, the robbery of the official bank is related to the life and death of many victims, and the fifth line's sense of justice will never allow him to refuse. If it is other things, once the fifth line learns that a woman is involved, he will
He will resign immediately and leave.
He is an upright swordsman. For this important case, he had to force himself to go with Wu Zhizhi. However, he was still unwilling to accept it and always left the princess far behind. Of course, he did not really want to get rid of the princess.
Because he still has to give face to Prince Xiao.
Every time Wu Zhizhi loses the trace of the fifth line, he will always find some clues. Naturally, these clues are deliberately left by the fifth line. With his skills, even if Hua'er, Heye and Qingcao follow them with all their strength, he can still
Get rid of them easily.
In this way, the Fifth Line reluctantly accepted Wu Zhizhi's identity, and what brought them together was the shocking robbery.
But this shocking robbery not only brought the two of them together, but also brought many other related people together. For example, Xue Qianhe and Sheng Zhiqiang, and Sheng Lingren and the eunuch, the Chief of Ceremonies, were also involved.
Shi Zhong, the official of Jiandong Changchang.
In the final analysis, Xue Qianhe and Sheng Zhiqiang are just small characters, but the real big shots are Sheng Lingren and Shi Zhong.
In Dongchang, Sheng Lingren secretly asked to see Shi Zhong.
The two of them are not only related because of this robbery. They have colluded with each other for money and power a long time ago. They both have what the other wants, Shi Zhong has Sheng Ling
People want the overwhelming power, but Sheng Ling people have the gold and silver piles that Shi Zhong longs for.
In order to maximize their respective interests, they had already secretly colluded together long ago, before the current emperor even boarded the plane, and did many shameful things. Even the emperor and Prince Xiao knew some things well, but
On the one hand, there is not enough evidence, and on the other hand, their foundation and strength are not solid, and there is nothing they can do for a while.
Sheng Lingren's adopted son Sheng Moming is not only attentive, but also extremely smart. He just met Xiao Wang and Wu Xing by chance in Cuiyun Tower and saw the mystery. His guess was right, Xiao Wang and Wu Xing were indeed
They came towards their temple. Although they haven't found anything yet, Sheng Lingren had to be on guard. He came to Eunuch Shi today for this very reason.
Shi Zhong asked: "Master Sheng, what do you want from our family?"
Sheng Lingren said: "Eunuch Shi, I heard that King Xiao has sent the fifth party to investigate the robbery of the official bank."
Shi Zhong wrote lightly: "The prodigal son of the Jianghu, a young young man, has achieved great things? Is it possible that the Lord Sheng is afraid of him?"
Sheng Lingren was neither humble nor arrogant and said: "As the saying goes: You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have people who can guard against others. Besides, Quan Zi Zhiqiang is not perfect in this matter, so I hope my father-in-law can help him."
It didn't matter that Sheng Lingren didn't mention this matter. When Shi Zhong was mentioned, he was a little angry. He asked: "Is it just 'not perfect'? From our family's point of view, it is simply a failure. The death of a few people is nothing, but why?"
There are still more than one alive left. The escorting general and the policeman have seen your person, and one of your people was captured by them. How do you want me to take action? Is it possible for us to kill it for you?
Them? It doesn’t matter if you die, but Qiancheng, don’t be afraid of dragging this old man into trouble."
Sheng Ling looked a bit ugly, so he could only say: "Those living people don't need to worry about my father-in-law. I only need to find a way to control the actions of the fifth line and King Xiao. I can leave other things to you."
After saying that, the four people at the door came in carrying two large boxes. Sheng Lingren opened them one by one. One box was full of bright silver, and the other box was full of pearls, agate and other exotic treasures.
"It's a trivial matter, but it's not disrespectful." Sheng Lingren said again.
When Eunuch Shi saw the property, his tone suddenly softened a lot: "To be honest, our family is also very embarrassed about this matter. But for Lord Sheng's sake, I naturally have to help. On the fifth trip, I will go to Sichuan.
Prince Xiao will first let him go to Tangmen in Phoenix Mountain. Our family will also send people to Tangmen to investigate, and will also spread the true purpose of Wu Xing’s trip. Once the news gets out, Wu Xing will become a thorn in Tangmen’s side, and his actions
It will definitely not go smoothly. The Lord must handle the matter properly before the fifth line finds those three survivors. If the fifth line finds any clues from them, then our family can't help you. In fact, the success or failure of this matter
The key is not here in our house, but whether Master Sheng can move quickly enough."
Sheng Lingren said happily: "My father-in-law said this, Sheng is extremely grateful. Sheng will definitely kill the fifth line before he finds them. If necessary, he will also take care of the fifth line..."
Shi Zhong immediately stopped and said: "Wait a minute. The Lord of the Fifth Line can't move yet?"
Sheng Lingren asked: "Why?"
Shi Zhong replied: "The fifth line is now considered a member of Prince Xiao. Prince Xiao has always been at odds with our family. If the fifth line dies, Prince Xiao will first suspect you and me. Looking at the world now, except for you and me,
, no one really dares to make trouble on Prince Xiao’s head.”
Sheng Lingren suddenly realized: "Thank you, father-in-law, for reminding me, otherwise Sheng might have caused a big disaster."
Shi Zhong said: "Whether it's a big disaster or not, our family doesn't know. We hope that the Lord will take care of himself."
Sheng Lingren said: "Okay, Sheng will leave now."
Shi Zhong replied: "Master Sheng, since we are inconvenient, we won't send it away."
After Sheng Ling left, Shi Zhong immediately summoned his deacon and eunuch Fan Yun: "You set off immediately, rush to Tangmen in Central Sichuan, and act according to our previous arrangements. Remember not to act rashly. As long as no clues are found in the fifth line, you
Just don't get too involved in this matter. As long as it has nothing to do with our family, we don't want to get involved in the disputes between the rivers and lakes.
