Chapter 284

"I'm not talking nonsense with you, I'm talking about business." The old man took a deep breath and tried to calm down, "You let me get what I want, and the family will be happy and peaceful. The contacts I have accumulated over the years will be handed over slowly. In your hands, for your use. If you don't let me do what I want, even if I don't force you, someone will disturb you so that you won't be quiet. Why bother? Why can't you do what is good for you? "

"I will never let you get what you want, there is no doubt about it." Xi Lang knocked on the table, "After talking to me for a long time, there must be something in my hand to persecute me, show it."

"It's not I who want to force you, but the Jiang family." The old man took out a thick cowhide envelope from the desk drawer, "Two years ago, the victory in Ningxia was the most beautiful battle you fought and captured the most prisoners. That was the beginning of your fame. It is also something that many people have always wanted to impeach you." He threw the envelope down to Xilang, "Now the Jiang family is going to bring up the old matter again, and impeach you to replace the captives with good people. Zuodu Yushi and Jiang The family is a family friend, once this matter arises, the officials will jump out to join in the fun, not to mention the officials who are jealous of your current status."

Xi Lang picked up the envelope, and casually took out a thick stack of paper inside.

"At the beginning, after your great victory, you moved to other places. You didn't even have time to go to Beijing to offer prisoners. You can only vaguely hear what happened in the court. I tried my best to suppress this matter. And This kind of thing is mentioned ten years later, and it will still make the court turmoil—the military exploits are easy to obtain, and this is the reason why so many famous generals end up miserable after the glory..."

Victory is easy to gain but not easy to defend.Why does Xi Lang think this sentence is so harsh?

"The Jiang family has been thinking about this for a long time. I'm afraid it has been planned for a long time. Therefore, you can only deal with the Jiang family for a period of time in the future. For the time being, promise them some things they want you to do, and secretly show them The evidence destroys or overturns..."

Xi Lang raised his eyes to look at the old man, and said with a smile: "Actually, you also doubt it in your heart. You suspect that I was greedy for merit and did such a thing when I was young. Right?"

"Then have you ever done it?" The old man looked at him with a flash of panic in his eyes.

A smile spread across Xilang's lips, but his eyes suddenly became bleak.

A rhetorical question made him really chill.

He stood up, "I have heard and remembered these things. Next, I have something to ask you: If I have made up my mind to let Xijia go up and down with my fate, I am determined to let my third son go up and down with me. If you spend your life doing nothing, what would you do?"

"What do you mean by that? What does it mean that your family follows your fate?" The old man was full of anger for this sentence, "I have worked hard for decades, and you want me to come and watch you destroy the family?! "

"You and the third child, as well as some outsiders, have not been idle for a while, and I know it all." Xi Lang asked, "What are you going to do or what do you already know? Have a taste of the unspeakable suffering of being coerced by others?"
