Murong Kuan secretly felt bad when he caught a glimpse of Master Long's gaze.
The head of the Long family looked at the people around Ning Caichen so many times, so he certainly didn't leave a good impression on Ning Caichen.
"Master Long, you are so polite. We are all friends."
Murong Kuan immediately started talking.
When he said this, he immediately attracted the attention of the head of the Long family.
The head of the Long family looked at Murong Kuan, continued to smile and opened his hands, then looked at Jiang Ming and motioned for Murong Kuan and Jiang Ming to come in.
"Sir Ning Caichen, Prince Liang, please come in quickly, I'm still tired standing outside."
The head of the Long family was overflowing with enthusiasm and had thoughts in his heart.
The people around Ning Caichen are all talented people.
If he forms an alliance with Ning Caichen, then everything he encounters will be solved with ease.
Jiang Ming felt like someone was staring at him, and he secretly looked for the viewer out of the corner of his eye.
After searching like this, he couldn't help but look at the head of the Long family.
The head of the Long family did not avoid this gaze. Instead, he looked at Jiang Ming and urged him, "Lord Ning Caichen, start quickly."
"Yeah, let's go inside."
Jiang Ming nodded and led the people around him to the house with Murong Kuan and the head of the Long family.
The head of the Long family arranged Murong Kuan and Jiang Ming to sit on the left and right, and he took the main seat.
Murong Kuan and Jiang Ming's people sat along the lines of those who followed them, and sat next to whomever they followed.
The servants brought tea and snacks.
"Did Prince Liang and Lord Ning Caichen come together?"
The head of the Long family had some objections and asked curiously.
"no."
Jiang Ming was the first to reply.
"It's a coincidence that Lord Ning Caichen and I met together and made a temporary friend."
Murong Kuan looked at Jiang Ming with a half-smile but not a smile, those tricks were clear to him.
The people around Jiang Ming are so attractive to Patriarch Long that he has to find another way to let Patriarch Long choose him.
"It's indeed a coincidence. The moment I saw the carriage, I thought it was Prince Liang, but I didn't expect it was Prince Liang's brother."
Jiang Ming said casually, waiting for Prince Liang to tell him about Long Qijian so that he could win over the head of the Long family.
However, Prince Liang also wanted Jiang Ming to bring it up first, so he kept silent and continued to talk, "Master Ning Caichen can't tell the difference between my carriage and Prince Liang's. This is the first time I've seen him."
This sentence is obviously insulting Jiang Ming's IQ.
Jiang Ming grinned.
Even if such trivial matters are used to belittle him, this Prince Liang is really not a good person.
When he was about to say something, the head of the Long family looked at Jiang Ming and said, "Sometimes I can't tell the difference. This is normal."
How can this speak for itself?
Jiang Ming was stunned and looked at the head of the Long family, and they happened to meet his eyes again.
He didn't know why, but he always felt that the head of the Long family looked at him with an old man's kindness.
After hearing such words, Murong Kuan was also stunned.
The head of the Long family is a sensible person in this world, and it is said that he will never defend anyone.
Even his own grandchildren are extremely harsh.
This was the first time they met and he spoke for Ning Caichen. The matter of Long Qiejian would be solved later, so it would be better to delay it until the head of the Long family was willing to meet with him alone.
Murong Kuan sighed inwardly.
If he had known it earlier, he should have been ahead of time. He really suffered a lot. Ning Caichen was really the biggest stumbling block.
"Master Long is saying, is this tea grown in a special place?"
Murong Kuan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and began to change the topic.
The fragrance of tea overflows.
He is also a little obsessed with this tea.
Jiang Ming originally thought that he and Murong Kuan would be having tit-for-tat remarks, but now that Murong Kuan has not revealed his true purpose, he can't understand.
Why are you delaying like this? At worst, the two of them will face off.
Forget it, let him bring it up.
"Yes," the head of the Long family flashed a hint of appreciation in his eyes, "it was given to me by an immortal. It is said that it is tea grown on the cliff, which is very rare."
It seems that I have found the right one.
Seeing the flash of look in Master Long's eyes, Murong Kuan was pleasantly surprised and immediately became excited.
If he continues to be good at tempting, the scale in the head of the Long family may tilt towards him, and the Long Qijian matter will go more smoothly.
Murong Kuan became more and more happy with his thoughts and raised the tea cup again, planning to take a few more sips.
This tea is really good.
"Tea is good tea. Let's get down to business first. Head of the Long family, I came here today to discuss the alliance with you."
Jiang Ming looked at the head of the Long family and immediately dropped the topic of tea.
This passage directly brought Murong Kuan's original thoughts back to reality.
"Cough cough cough."
He almost spit out a mouthful of tea, coughed repeatedly, and felt regretful in his heart.
How could he forget about Ning Caichen's change of heart?
This Ning Caichen really didn't play by the rules. He said it for no reason at all, without giving him any chance to prepare.
"Prince Liang, are you okay?"
This cough made Patriarch Long frightened.
I heard that Prince Liang was mentally ill. If this person died here, he would be held responsible.
He didn't want to be accused in vain.
Zhu Asi looked at Murong Kuan in front of him, whose face was blue and purple due to coughing, and felt funny in his heart.
Murong Kuan was already like this after just a few coughs. No wonder he was rarely seen in activities related to the Liang Kingdom.
Seeing Murong Kuan's posture, Jiang Ming frowned.
This is obviously caused by a bad heart, which can't bear the fluctuations in the amplitude of movements.
If this condition is not treated properly for a long time, sooner or later, it will lead to premature death.
He immediately rejected his own thoughts.
Bah, bah, bah, how can you curse someone to death?
"No...ahem...it's okay."
Murong Kuan tried his best to calm down and waved at the two of them, but the purple color on his face was obviously not optimistic.
"Here, call the doctor over."
The head of the Long family saw that Murong Kuan was not recovered yet, so he hurriedly called to his servants.
"Ahem..."
Murong Kuan coughed again. This time, he almost fainted.
The head of the Long family was horrified and anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
He had no medical skills, so he could only watch Murong Kuan suffer so much.
Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi looked at each other with a wry smile in each other's eyes.
Who would have thought that what was originally a good negotiation scene would directly turn into a treatment scene for Prince Liang.
It's okay now. We have to wait until Prince Liang gets better before we can continue the negotiation.
Fortunately, Prince Liang has not yet said that he wants to form an alliance with the head of the Long family.
Prince Liang feels uncomfortable and may not bring up the alliance for the time being. They have a high chance of success.
Murong Kuan's eyes were dim now, and the head of the Long family he looked at was a double image.
He originally thought of doing one last thing for Beiyan Murong and leaving to recuperate, but he didn't expect that his illness suddenly came.
