You don't want to damage your reputation, and you don't want to tire yourself out, so why do you want to take advantage of everything? When did you ever say the word "faking illness"? Faking illness means being a coward. Do you have the courage to be a coward?
I thought Huang Yanjiong was a wise leader, but now it seems that he is just so-so. Right now, it is because they are still in Chenliu City and cannot make any big noise, nor can they settle the score completely, so Huang Yanjiong only verbally insulted him. But it is hard to say when they return to Jianning. Huang Yanjiong trusts him because he has never made a mistake in his calculations. Now that it has happened, his position in Huang Yanjiong's heart must be far less than before.
Zhou Liang is a petty person. He cannot tolerate the person he is loyal to listening to other people, and he also does not like someone putting pressure on him. Although he can make some adjustments to make Huang Yanjiong trust him again, he still feels very displeased when looking at Huang Yanjiong at this moment.
It's just a tall person among short people.
Zhou Liang began to think about changing the person to pledge allegiance to. His first reaction was to think of Qu Yunmie. However, when he thought of Qu Yunmie, he would think of Xiao Rong.
Working with this annoying person is not a problem. Zhou Liang considers himself a flexible person, but he doesn't like the fact that Qu Yunmie listens to Xiao Rong so much, to the point of blindly following his every word.
At the same time, Zhou Liang vaguely realized that this kind of relationship was not something he could change. Even if he spoke eloquently, Qu Yunmie would never kick Xiao Rong out and replace him with the person he trusted the most. ... So no, he should think of someone else.
Huang Yanjiong naturally couldn't guess what Zhou Liang was thinking. Since it was a foregone conclusion, Huang Yanjiong could only accept his fate and attend the Hongmen Banquet tomorrow first, and deal with the future later.
Huang Yanjiong began to ask Zhou Liang what to do tomorrow, and Zhou Liang answered all of them one by one without any impatience. When Huang Yanjiong asked what to do with Huang Keji, Zhou Liang wanted to say that he must not let him out of his sight, because today's events were too strange, and there was a smart man under the King of Zhenbei, who might have become suspicious and would contact Huang Keji.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, his mind moved, and his words changed direction: "Today, the real purpose has been revealed. Young Master Huang must have realized the governor's intention. The governor had better not see him again. This matter cannot be explained, and it only adds to your worries. You can make a decision after you leave the city."
This was a rather obscure statement, but everyone could understand it. It meant to kill him after leaving the city.
When Huang Yanjiong decided to sacrifice Huang Keji, he had already forgotten the family affection between them. Now that Huang Keji had discovered his true nature, Huang Yanjiong was afraid that he would spread the news everywhere after returning. He nodded and agreed that Huang Keji must not be allowed to return to Jianning alive.
But he still had a question: "If I want to blame this incident on Qu Yunmie, do you think it is feasible?"
Zhou Liang smiled: "Of course it is feasible."
Huang Yanjiong was a little happier now. He waved his hand and asked Zhou Liang to leave. Zhou Liang stood up, saluted, then turned and left.
Huang Yanjiong lives in this house, and Huang Keji lives diagonally opposite him. Looking at the light still coming through the doors and windows over there, Zhou Liang smiled coldly.
Regardless of whether the King of Zhenbei contacts Huang Keji and brings trouble to Huang Yanjiong, or Huang Yanjiong kills Huang Keji and leaves himself with a handle, this matter will backfire on Huang Yanjiong anyway, and that is enough.
Xiao Rong slept too late yesterday and didn’t get up until noon the next day.
The main reason was that no one came to call him. Xiao Yi was a little worried, afraid that he would delay things and the King of Zhenbei would blame him. But Prime Minister Gao from the next door courtyard came and smiled and told him not to worry. He also said that Xiao Rong had suffered a lot during their march, and it was not easy for him to sleep comfortably, so naturally he had to get enough sleep.
Xiao Yi: “…”
Gao Xunzhi's residence was slightly smaller than Xiao Rong's, mainly because there was no clear division between men and women. Everything else was similar. Not only Gao Xunzhi lived in that courtyard, but also the two brothers of the Yu family.
Qu Yunmie told Gao Xunzhi what happened yesterday early this morning. Gao Xunzhi was extremely shocked. He then told Yu Shaoxie, who was very angry.
"To kill your own brother's only bloodline is worse than a beast!"
Gao Xunzhi used to stay in Nanyong with Qu Yunmie. At that time, he just thought that Huang Yanjiong was not a person worth making close friends with, but he never expected that he would become like this now.
He sighed: "You can only know a person's face but not his heart."
After sighing, he became a little worried about Huang Keji's situation: "Back then, we received the kindness of Huang Keji's father, and later we had no choice but to abandon him. It is reasonable for us to protect the descendants of our benefactor."
Yu Shaoxie also thought this was true and nodded.
This is what scholars think. Scholars believe that gratitude is greater than heaven. They would fight to the death for just one meal, not to mention that Qu Yunmie didn't even know how many meals he owed.
However, a gentleman dying for his friend is only a beautiful vision. Most people cannot really do that. No one will really give their life to others just because they owe someone a meal, as people did in ancient times.
It is right to repay a favor, but one must pay attention to the method and approach, as well as the timing and people. After all, whether the favor can be repaid depends on what Qu Yunmie thinks. If he is unwilling, no one else can do anything.
Yu Shaoxie and Gao Xunzhi looked at each other, then stood up and walked out at the same time.
But they did not go to persuade Qu Yunmie to die, but turned and went into the yard next door. …
Xiao Rong indeed hadn't slept so well in a long time. When he felt the light shining on his face, he couldn't help but curl his lips and stretched lazily on the bed with his eyes closed.
After his muscles and bones were stretched, Xiao Rong opened his eyes and was almost frightened to death.
He sat up quickly and pulled up the quilt to cover himself reflexively before he uttered a frightened voice: "What are you doing! Why are you looking at me like that?!"
Yu Shaoxie took a step forward, solemnly grasped Xiao Rong's hand, and said, "Brother Xiao, there is something I can only ask of you now!"
Xiao Rong: “…………”
You bastard, let go!
