Chapter 73 Reaction
"Transfer this matter to the Qin family secretly, remember, don't let the Qin family suspect that it was someone else who deliberately revealed it." Xiao Ming said.
Wang Xuan was calm as usual, "Your Highness, when this happened, I was sent to Dengzhou to collect the accounts. Wang An went to the banquet, and I also went to the banquet. At the banquet, he was drunk and told the matter. There were also places where the 72 people's corpses were buried. This time, I needed to dig out the corpse and build momentum in Dengzhou. The Qin family would naturally send people to investigate, and then I quietly left evidence."
Xiao Ming nodded. Wang Xuan was indeed very motivated. The people who survived hard days had different spirits.
"Very good, you are the most familiar with the Wang family. I hope you can arrange your eyeliner as soon as possible." Xiao Ming also reminded Wang Xuan as he reminded Li San.
"Go back to Your Highness, I have already put my eyeliner in the Wang family." Wang Xuan was still as calm as usual.
Xiao Ming was surprised, "Yes, it's only less than a year old, you've done it, it's much faster than Li San."
Wang Xuan said: "Your Highness, the subordinates are just a coincidence. There is a family named Wangcheng in the Wang family. When I was in the Wang family, I broke through him and Wang Chengchou's concubine. This time I just took advantage of this matter."
"Oh..." Xiao Ming stretched out his voice. Wang Chengchou, an old man, had no twenty years of concubines at home, and was still thirty years old. He definitely couldn't handle so many things. It was normal for one or two people to steal fish.
Xiao Ming was naturally overjoyed when the Wang family had a suspicion. What he feared the most was the local wealthy family. If he could not always grasp what they were doing and what they had, it would be hard to sleep or eat.
Although he has given these wealthy families a lot of benefits now, these are only used to confuse them temporarily, and he must be prepared for both.
If they reported that this was just a delaying strategy and that their real purpose was to eradicate them, his fiefdom would inevitably go through a baptism of fire and blood.
However, Xiao Ming did not want to end in such a way, because this would seriously lag the development of the fief. He only hoped to boil frogs in warm water to allow local rich people to slowly withdraw from the stage of history in peace.
Qin family.
At this time, Qin Chuanyun jumped into the trap. Chai Lingwu was his second daughter's son-in-law, and Wei Tong's husband's family was also Wei Hong's third son.
Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong were killed overnight, and his two daughters suddenly became widows. Wei Hong found him in anger and asked him to summon troops to kill Lu Fei and avenge his son.
But calmed down and he knew that the culprit of this incident was not King Qi.
"Brother Qin, why are you still hesitating? Lu Fei is too bullying. Although the King of Qi wants to punish Wei Tong, he has not ordered to be killed directly. I have been dissatisfied with Lu Fei. I just need you and me to see Your Highness and ask Lu Fei to pay his life!" Wei Hong said in a panic.
Qin Chuanyun gritted his teeth with hatred, but he said: "Lu Fei was wrong in this matter, but the Wang family was the driving force behind it. It was them who killed Wei Tong and Chai Lingwu. Lu Fei has always been reckless. At that time, the Qin family's troops arrived again. With Lu Fei's character, it was impossible not to fail to execute the order of Your Highness to kill. Even if we go to find Your Highness, Your Highness will protect Lu Fei. Moreover, if Your Highness pursues the Qin family's crime of resettling troops in the Cangzhou defenders, you and my family will definitely suffer."
"Wang Chengchou, you are too cruel!" Wei Hong smashed the table hard, and the tea on the table spilled all over the floor, "Then can you bear this tone?"
"I can't bear it. It was Lu Fei who killed people, but the culprit was the Wang family. He caused our two families to suffer heavy losses. We must fight back." Qin Chuanyun said.
In an impulse, Wei Hong pointed his resentment at Xiao Ming, and after thinking about it carefully, he gradually came back to his senses, "Oh, Brother Qin is still thinking about it. Now he is most afraid that the Wang family and His Highness will attack our two families, and then he will be doomed."
"You finally understand that Your Highness now has silver and a new army in his hand, and has gained the trust of the emperor again. The King of Wei in the south always has to give the emperor some face to take care of the King of Qi. The King of Qi is no longer the King of Qi in the past. This matter is a death sentence after all. In Your Highness's opinion, this is absolutely unwilling tolerate. When we go to make trouble at this time, how will Your Highness view our two families? Will you rebel?"
When Wei Hong heard this, he suddenly burst into a cold sweat on his forehead. Now he really realized that it was amazing. "I was reckless, but Wei Tong is my son, I am really unwilling to accept it."
"A gentleman takes revenge for ten years. The Wang family is not too late to fight for the interests of the chamber of commerce. The most important thing now is silver. As long as we have silver, we can buy more land and strengthen our troops. So now we are dealing with the Wang family, not the King of Qi." Qin Chuanyun said, "For this matter, we should not only not force Your Highness to kill Lu Fei, but also go and apologize."
Wei Hong nodded, "Forget it, I will go to the Qi Palace with Brother Qin."
After saying that, the two stood up and went to the Qi Palace.
Li San arranged for the people who were staring at the Qin family and quickly brought the news to Xiao Ming.
When he learned about this, he was still worried that it would cause a rebound from the Qin family. A stone fell to the ground in his heart. He was not afraid of the scheming Qin Chuanyun, but also the somewhat naughty Wei Hong.
Because the young man only looks at the surface, he will inevitably tear his face for this matter, and Qin Chuanyun is very smart and can see something deeper.
In this way, he can lead the conflict to the Wang family and let the two families fight each other, instead of letting him bear pressure.
Although he has recruited new recruits now, these new recruits are both military farming and training. The most fatal thing is that they have no weapons to show off. They are also a group of cannon fodder when they are pulled out. If everyone wants to tear each other apart, they will kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of them.
However, once he waits until the plate armor and other equipment is equipped with the Qingzhou Army and trains for a few more months, he will no longer be afraid of the armed forces of the local wealthy clans.
Qin Chuanyun and Wei Hong soon arrived at the Qi Prince's Mansion. Qin Chuanyun naturally blamed himself. In addition, he scolded Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong, and then he also made clear that this was not the instructor of the Qin and Wei families, but their own behavior.
"Please ask for help. Since it has nothing to do with the Qin and Wei families, and the lights are gone, I will no longer pursue this matter. I hope you two can be divided into their true meanings." Xiao Ming said with a warning.
Qin Chuanyun and Wei Hong said in unison: "Abide by Your Highness's teachings."
"You guys go back." Xiao Ming breathed a sigh of relief. The first step was finally completed smoothly. It was time for Wang Xuan to take action below.
The two responded and left the Qi Palace together.
Looking at the two of them leaving, Xiao Ming frowned. The Qin family's arrangement of troops in the Cangzhou army made him feel a little uneasy, because he always felt that this matter was far from the simple personal actions of Chai Lingwu and Wei Tong.
Thinking of this, he asked Aster to prepare horses. This hydraulic forging hammer had just been made and the craftsman was adapting to this hydraulic machinery. He needed to go to the steel workshop to personally supervise the production of plate armor as soon as possible to realize the production of assembly line.
