Chapter 18: Night Talk

Out of the Xianlai Inn, Gu Hao and Gu Quan were full of anger and unwillingness. Even the steps on the road are venting their dissatisfaction. If it hadn't been for Chen Rufeng being the leader of the Tianfeng Gang, they would have turned around and beat people. Usually, they call for wind and rain in Chang'an City. Who dares to obstruct it on the rampage road? However, today, Chen Rufeng forced him to be like two undignified street mice, which is really furious!

Both of them clenched the joints of their fists at the same time, making a terrible sound, and their eyes were even more murderous. Jiang Shengtian, who followed them, looked at their every move quietly with deep thinking. He could almost feel the fury released from them, but it was difficult to attack.

Gu Hao stood up and looked back at the Xianlai Inn. Gu Quan also followed his head and looked back. I only heard Gu Hao say, "Chen Rufeng, I will definitely make you unable to stand it!" I want you to know that this is Chang'an City, not the Tianfeng Gang!"

When Jiang Shengtian heard his angry words, he couldn't help but feel funny in his heart. Do these two people really think that they are the supreme people in Chang'an? Do they really ignore the existence of the emperor?

Although he thinks so, his face still maintains a consistent respectful smile. These two people are not what he can offend now.

The two snorted and looked back to the endless sea of people on the street. It seemed that everything they saw disgusted them, especially those ordinary people in coarse linen clothes, who looked like eye-catching insects and ants at this moment. Some passers-by saw the ferocious light flashing in Gu Hao and Gu Quan's eyes, and hurriedly accelerated their pace and quickly left their sight.

Jiang Shengtian bent down and approached the two of them and said, "I hope the two brothers can carefully consider our cooperation. Jiang Shengtian will always wait for the good information of the two of you."

At this moment, both of them are on fire, and how can they pay attention to Jiang Shengtian's words? Gu Quan glanced at him coldly, as if he remembered something, and sneered, "I heard that Mr. Jiang is also the leader of the Tianfeng Gang. I don't know why he will fall into the prime minister's mansion?"

Jiang Shengtian's face changed slightly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and a fire rushed straight to his throat, but he still held himself well and did not let it attack, but his smile faded a lot and said slowly, "Brother Gu's words are heavy. This is really nothing to say what a decline. On the contrary, I feel that it is much better to be in the prime minister's mansion than in the Tianfeng Gang.

When he said this, Jiang Shengtian consciously glanced at the Xianlai Inn where Chen Rufeng was located.

"If you still insist on five or five points of accounts, there is absolutely nothing to talk about, you can go back and talk to the Prime Minister like this." Gu Hao waved his sleeves impatiently and disappeared into Jiang Shengtian's vision with Gu Quan's back to Jiang Shengtian.

When the two completely disappeared in their eyes, Jiang Shengtian raised his head. The smile was more like being quickly covered by a piece of cloth, disappearing and replaced by incomparable disgust.

As soon as he took a few steps, he couldn't help turning his head and looked at the Xianlai Inn. He remembered the puzzled faces of Chen Rufeng and Hu Jiuwei just now, and a strange feeling suddenly surged in his heart.

"They are already people who have nothing to do with you. Don't pay much attention to them." Jiang Shengtian muttered in his heart, and finally closed his eyes and integrated into the crowd, but his bright brocade clothes were particularly eye-catching, which made people unable to pay attention to him.

returned to the prime minister's house.

In the study, Li Linfu stroked the teacup in one hand and read the scroll in the other hand. There was always a gloomy smile at the corners of his mouth, as if he could constantly think of cunning ideas in his mind.

When the door opened, Jiang Shengtian left the sunshine outside the house and walked in. There was no smile on his face, as cold as frost.

"Are you back?"

"Hmm."

Li Linfu put down the scroll in his hand, narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "How's Brother Gu?" Is there any response?"

"No." Jiang Shengtian replied faintly. Li Linfu's face suddenly emptied with a smile, but did not show any anger, which surprised Jiang Shengtian a little. He thought that Li Linfu would be furious when he learned that the Gu brothers refused to agree to their cooperation plan, but his reaction was so surprisingly calm.

Li Linfu picked up the teacup, tasted it leisurely, closed the lid again, sighed gently, and said to Jiang Shengtian, "If they agreed so easily, how can they have today's power and status to become a rich man?"

Jiang Shengtian was stunned for a moment, and then lowered his head and said, "They said that the five-point account is not acceptable to them. If there can be a change in this sub-account..."

Li Linfu waved his hand to interrupt him before he finished speaking, looked at the watery teacup noodles, and leaned against the back of the chair as usual. "There is absolutely no room for negotiation. This is absolutely determined, and it can't be changed under any case."

In the study, I suddenly fell into silence. The most difficult thing is Jiang Shengtian. He is in the middle, but neither side will make concessions, which is what should he do.

After a while, Li Linfu adjusted his sitting posture. His whole center of gravity leaned on the desk, crossed his hands and supported his cheeks. He looked at Jiang Shengtian meaningfully. His tone was a little cunning and said, "Shentian, I know you have always been smart, and you must be able to come up with a way to solve this matter, right?"

The eyes that seemed to be full of expectations were actually the eyes of the tiger using other beasts to forage, making Jiang Shengtian's hair stand up all over.

But after all, Jiang Shengtian has seen many waves, and the expression on his face has been invulnerable. He has maintained a compliment face, making it impossible to catch his mood change. Li Linfu's words are also vicious. The implication is that if you can't do this matter properly, don't blame him for your inability to deal with it.

"I can't lose to anyone, especially Chen Rufeng. I want them to know that I have the strength. Jiang Shengtian secretly told himself in his heart.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Shengtian punched Li Linfu, and his eyes showed bursts of confidence and firmness: " Prime Minister, since everyone refuses to make concessions on the five-point account, we can only use the most direct method."

Li Linfu smiled happily and raised his hand and said, "Come on!"

"I have thought of a strategy to uproot the power of the Gu brothers deeply planted in Chang'an, and then take their territory and business into our hands with the power of our prime minister. In this way, you don't have to worry about the division of accounts!"

Li Linfu heard this, first his face changed, and then a trace of proud ferociousness flashed, looking up to the sky and laughing, "Okay! It's worthy of Jiang Shengtian! This method is really fierce and direct! However, the power of the Gu brothers in Chang'an is so deep that it is difficult to eradicate them. Do you also plan to do this?

Jiang Shengtian smiled with a gloomy smile and said, "Exactly, listen to me one by one."

In the study, there were bursts of whispers, and from time to time there were extremely arrogant voices and praises.

Xianlai Inn, the window has long been full of stars and the moon is hanging high. However, the lights in the room were still not out, and the two shadows were talking in a low voice in the light of the fire. Chen Rufeng also explained the reason for his quarrel with Jiang Shengtian and Hu Jiu.

"In this way," Hu Jiuwei sighed, "Does Jiang really want to leave our Tianfeng Gang and never come back?"

Faced with Hu Jiuwei's question, Chen Rufeng really didn't know where to answer it. He really wanted to say no to him, but he couldn't even deceive himself at all, and could only leave a trace of hope.

"Anyway, I will keep his position as the master." Chen Rufeng looked out of the window and said firmly, not disturbed by Ling Xiaoyu, who had been sleeping and snoring so early. He firmly believed that Jiang Shengtian would one day turn back, leave the prime minister's mansion, and return to the Tianfeng Gang to fight with him.

Hu Jiuwei was speechless for a moment and froze and watched Chen Rufeng's face darken point by point. He had to pat him on the shoulder and comfort him, "I don't think Master Jiang is those traitors and evil people, and he will never stay in the prime minister's mansion to help him abuse. He will eventually see clearly that the prime minister is not suitable for him, and then come back.

"I hope so." Chen Rufeng said slightly discouragedly.

At this moment, the door knocked gently. The people outside seemed to see that the lights were still bright inside, so they opened a door crack. It turned out to be the second child of the Xianlai Inn. He passed through the crack of the door and said to the room, "Mr. Guest, there is a prince outside who wants to see you."

Hu Jiu and Chen Rufeng were surprised. Who would come to them so late?

The second child continued, "That young man is one of the people who came to our inn today."

Chen Rufeng came over and had already guessed who came to him. He glanced at Hu Jiuwei, and Hu Jiuwei also nodded to him, knowing who came.

Follow Xiao Er downstairs. It was already late at night. There were no noisy people in the Xianlai Inn. On the contrary, it was terrible silence. Except for a few lights, Chen Rufeng's own footsteps were left.

"The prince is waiting for you outside the inn." Xiao Er said respectfully. After thanking him, Chen Rufeng opened the door of the inn, and a cold wind blew on his face, with a piercing chill and whistling sound, which hindered his eyes for a moment. He vaguely saw a shadow in front of him under the moon shadow starlight, waiting quietly with his back to him.

"Is it coming?" Jiang Shengtian turned his face with a faint smile. His smile was completely different from the sincere and unrestrained smile in Chen Rufeng's memory, but with a deep plotting color and a knife hidden in his smile.

Chen Rufeng stepped on the black stone slab, and the faint firelight in the inn was not enough to illuminate the outside. He could only use the little light of the moon star to illuminate it. However, when it was already winter and snowing, Chen Rufeng was a man in the inner family, and he couldn't stand the coolness of cutting bones. Looking at Jiang Shengtian in front of him, he was already dressed in thick clothes, and the thin Chen Rufeng looked a little shabby than him.

"What's the important thing about visiting late at night?" Chen Rufeng approached him and stopped, secretly feeling that Jiang Shengtian's arrival must have been a plot.

Jiang Shengtian smiled, looked at the Xianlai Inn behind Chen Rufeng with some vigilance and said, "Come with me."

Chen Rufeng frowned and watched Jiang Shengtian walk to a big tree in the distance that fell into the darkness of the night. The idea of whether there would be an ambush around him flashed in his mind. But the idea was also fleeting, and he still took a step forward and followed him.

"Didn't you ask me today what do you think about the relocation?" Jiang Shengtian kept smiling.

Chen Rufeng's face was stiff and nodded, "Exactly. The elder and the two guardians are against each other, and Mr. Bhubai and I agree. Now we owe your opinion. At this moment, Chen Rufeng really wants to shout out. I have never given up being the leader of the Tianfeng Gang and never left.

But Jiang Shengtian didn't know whether he couldn't see the change of Chen Rufeng's face because the sky was too dark, or he didn't pay attention to him at all. He just continued to laugh and said, "It seems that my opinion is very important, right? Moreover, the relocation of the Gang also has a far-reaching impact on the establishment of future hegemony by Tianfeng Gang, right? But it's a pity that the elders and protectors can't see the key points, or they are too obeditive, and you are very persistent to move and get rid of the influence of Qianjianmen on Cuihua Mountain. Am I guessing right?

Chen Rufeng was secretly shocked when he heard it. Although Jiang Shengtian did not attend the debate on that day, he could actually guess a *. It can be seen that he was really much more powerful when he left Tianfeng Gang during this period of time. Maybe he was so powerful before, but Chen Rufeng didn't notice it.

"So, my sentence determines whether you can implement your relocation plan." Jiang Shengtian smiled and made it gloomy in the dark night.

The wind passed by with a whir. They could only see each other's hair raised, but they could not see each other's expressions clearly. Chen Rufeng frowned deeper, as if he realized the uneasiness behind Jiang Shengtian's words, but he didn't know what he was calculating.

"Exact." Chen Rufeng replied faintly.
