The Emperor's Phoenix: The Divine Doctor and the Abandoned Concubine 597 Cooperation, three parties move together
Lan Jiuqing saw Xiling Tianlei's angry look and did not agree with him. Xiling Tianlei was a very suspicious person and some of the things he said were too absolute, so he did not believe them.
Lan Jiuqing said calmly: "I am not sure if it is Xuanxiao Palace, but this matter is definitely related to Xuanxiao Palace. A year ago, a mysterious person came to me and took out 100,000 taels of gold and the map in your hands, Prince Lei, and asked me to snatch the map. After the matter is completed, I will give me another 100,000 taels of gold.
Jiuqing is a man of the world, so of course he has to follow the rules of the world. After getting 100,000 taels of gold, he has been following Prince Lei, looking for an opportunity to snatch the map. After getting the map, Jiuqing gave it to the mysterious man as promised, but the other party intended to kill me to silence me.
After I escaped by chance, I secretly checked the news of the mysterious man. Not long ago, I learned that the master of Xuanxiao Palace had a treasure map of the previous dynasty. Jiuqing didn't know whether this treasure map was in the hands of Prince Lei, but there were not many people in the world who could kill Jiuqing. "There is truth in the lies, and the truth is not important. What is important is that Xuanxiao Palace has the map of Jiuzhou. Lan Jiuqing believes that Xiling Tianlei will be willing to cooperate with him just based on this point.
"Based on this little information, you think it was done by Xuanxiao Palace and you seek revenge on Xuanxiao Palace?" Xiling Tianlei did not completely believe Lan Jiuqing's words, but he had to say that he was moved. No one knew better than him what the treasure map of the previous dynasty represented. After losing the treasure map, he even wanted to kill Lan Jiuqing.
“That’s why I said I’m not sure, but Xuanxiao Palace is the biggest suspect. If they dare to do something bad to me, I, Lan Jiuqing, would rather kill them by mistake than let them go. Besides, there is such a good opportunity in front of me, of course I can’t let it go.” Lan Jiuqing once again showed his domineering and arrogance, making Xiling Tianlei believe that no one can order a man like him around except for huge benefits and things that interest him.
He must dispel Xiling Tianlei's suspicion. Once Xiling Tianlei thinks that he is related to the Ninth Prince, Xiling Tianlei will not cooperate with him even if there are huge benefits. Not only that, he will also cause trouble.
However, Lan Jiuqing believed that Xiling Tianlei would agree. If he was really the Ninth Emperor's uncle, why would he seek cooperation with Xiling Tianlei? Xiling Tianyu was more suitable than him.
"After all, this is all a personal grudge between you and Xuanxiao Palace. It has nothing to do with me." Xiling Tianlei was shaken. What attracted him was of course the map of Xuanxiao Palace, but he would not give in now. He still had to verify the news about Lan Jiuqing.
If the news is true, what if he takes a risk? As Lan Jiuqing said, he does not need to spend too much manpower and material resources to take action at this time. He just needs to let the Ninth Prince stand in front.
Lan Jiuqing took out a cup and placed it in front of Xiling Tianlei with a thud: "The Xuanxiao Palace is located closest to Xiling. If this piece of land is added to Xiling, wouldn't it be a great achievement for Prince Lei?"
This is the last straw that breaks the camel's back. Even if it means taking more risks, Xiling Tianlei will take a chance. The risk is no smaller than that on the map.
Even if Xiling Tianlei did not show any interest, Lan Jiuqing was 90% sure that Xiling Tianlei would be tempted. With the addition of the land where Xuanxiao Palace was located, Xiling would have an extra barrier. Xiling Tianlei was an ambitious man, it was impossible for him not to be tempted.
Xiling Tianlei's breathing became heavier, his eyes fixed on the cup, as if the cup was the location of Xuanxiao Palace. He was indeed tempted, but he did not intend to let Lan Jiuqing know. Xiling Tianlei retracted his gaze and said reservedly: "The risk is too great."
“If the risk is not big, how can its value be reflected? If we don’t take action when Xuanxiao Palace is fully focused on dealing with the Ninth Prince of Dongling, the risk will be greater. If Prince Lei thinks it is too risky, he can find someone to share the burden. Jiuqing loves money and gets it in a proper way. After breaking through Xuanxiao Palace, Jiuqing only wants 100,000 taels of gold and the head of that mysterious man.” This made Xiling Tianlei believe even more that Lan Jiuqing was venting his anger.
Xiling Tianlei thought he knew Lan Jiuqing quite well. This man clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment, had a strong sense of the underworld, was loyal, and believed in handling underworld matters according to the underworld. After hearing Lan Jiuqing's proposal, Xiling Tianlei did have a good candidate in mind.
Nanling Jinfan, the third prince of Nanling, has been very short of money recently. He gave all the wealth of Xuanxiao Palace to Nanling Jinfan. Nanling Jinfan should be very happy to send troops. After all, the wealth accumulated by Xuanxiao Palace for generations is definitely not less than that of the imperial palace. Even if the 100,000 taels of gold given to Lan Jiuqing is deducted, it is enough to support Nanling Jinfan to fight two more battles.
Xiling Tianlei silently calculated the pros and cons of this battle in his mind. It must be said that the pros outweighed the disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage of destroying Xuanxiao Palace was that it solved a problem for the Ninth Prince. However, without the Ninth Prince's main force rushing to the front, the losses they would suffer would be great.
I'm not willing to accept this!
Xiling Tianlei was really unwilling to help the Ninth Uncle solve an opponent just like that, but if he missed this opportunity, he was afraid that he would never find such a good opportunity in the future.
Xiling Tianlei gritted his teeth and had already made a decision in his heart, but he still spoke reservedly: "I need to think about this matter again." He couldn't just believe Lan Jiuqing's one-sided words.
"Okay, three days. Jiuqing will wait for Prince Lei for three days. If Prince Lei does not give Jiuqing a reply after three days, Jiuqing will find someone else to cooperate with. Jiuqing believes that many people will be tempted." Lan Jiuqing smiled mysteriously, stood up gracefully, jumped up, and jumped out of the window...
The guard heard the noise and wanted to take action, but was stopped by Xiling Tianlei: "Let him go!"
This is Xiling Tianlei's intention, and this cooperation is likely to be successful.
Lan Jiuqing sneered in the dark, took a deep look at the direction where Xiling Tianlei was, then turned and ran in another direction.
Less than five seconds after Lan Jiuqing left, Xiling Tianlei also followed out. Unfortunately, he didn't even see the shadow of Lan Jiuqing. He could only curse Lan Jiuqing for being cunning, then returned to his room and summoned his staff to discuss the matters of Xuanxiao Palace.
After Lan Jiuqing came out from Xiling Tianlei, he walked around the city a few times, making sure that he was not being followed by anyone before heading towards the Su Mansion.
In the secret room of the Su Mansion, Su Wenqing was sorting out secret reports. Although it was very cold, his forehead was covered with sweat. He didn't even notice Lan Jiuqing walking in.
"Ahem..." Lan Jiuqing reminded him. Su Wenqing looked up, confused and bewildered. After seeing who was coming, he quickly jumped up from his chair: "Jiuqing, why are you here?"
Su Wenqing stood up too quickly, and coupled with days of non-stop work, he found himself in front of the black screen as soon as he stood up. He fell headfirst and hit the table with a thud.
Lan Jiuqing didn't take it seriously at first. It was normal to feel dizzy when standing up suddenly after working hard for a long time. He often felt dizzy. But after waiting for a long time and Su Wenqing didn't get up, Lan Jiuqing realized that something was wrong. He went forward to take a look and saw that Su Wenqing's face was covered in blood and he had fainted...
At the same time, in the mansion of the Duke of Zhenguo, a man in black sneaked into the bedroom of the Duke of Zhenguo. The Duke of Zhenguo was sleeping soundly in bed. The man in black stepped forward and hit the Duke of Zhenguo's hidden spot several times.
Uh… The Duke of Zhenguo suddenly jumped up, his eyes widened as big as a bull's, and he opened his mouth, but no words came out. With a thud, he fell back to the ground. Except for his chest no longer rising and falling, the Duke of Zhenguo was no different from before…
A word to readers: I mixed up the words "Zhenguogong" and "Anguogong", and I wrote "Guogongfu" directly in the latter part! I'm so stupid, I should have changed the latter part to "Anguogong", but I changed the former part to "Zhenguogongfu", wuwuwu...
