Chapter 992: The Liar Who Manipulates People's Hearts
Yi Xiaotian...can be a liar sometimes.
Even if not a word he said was a lie - deliberately concealing the truth and revealing only part of the truth is still a form of deception.
Deception is also an act of manipulating people's hearts...the methods of provocation, alienation schemes, etc. are all born from deception.
Not much deception in the world is completely altruistic...most of them contain a hint of selfishness.
Including what Yi Xiaotian is saying now.
Yi Xiaotian had already had the purpose of taking away Xiao Qiao, but it was just because of the actual situation - for example, Zhou Yu treated Xiao Qiao so indifferently... Such behavior gave Yi Xiaotian a legitimate reason for his actions.
But out of considerations of precedence... Yi Xiaotian's behavior of dragging the big and small Qiao into the plan is still selfish.
Yes, he is such a person.
He never hides his selfish desires, is fair and aboveboard, and shows his selfish desires to everyone.
There may be some cover-up at first, but Yi Xiaotian can always guarantee that he will tell all the truth to the person he deceived.
Whether this is good or bad for the parties concerned, or whether they accept it or not, all depends on the other party.
Fortunately, at least for now, these people who gathered around her more or less because of Yi Xiaotian's design finally accepted his kindness and chose to satisfy his selfish desires.
Win-win - this has always been the principle that Yi Xiaotian emphasizes.
As long as...the other party is not an enemy.
——
Hearing Yi Xiaotian's question that reached deep into his soul, Xiao Qiao probably hesitated for a while.
This time she didn't cry cowardly and helplessly like before - even though it was just the first time she saw Yi Xiaotian in front of her, the ashes in Xiao Qiao's heart were secretly rekindled.
It is this wonderful feeling that gives Xiao Qiao unlimited space for imagination:
If I followed them...maybe...maybe there would be a different ending?
Even if the outcome is still unknown...how does it compare to now?
Sister? Sister, what did she do? She actually put herself in danger... No, I have to save her... I... can I do it?
And...Shangxiang...
Countless thoughts exploded in Xiao Qiao's mind in an instant.
The final result of this was Xiao Qiao's extremely firm promise:
"No...Mr. Zhan...take me with you, sister...and Shangxiang...what are they doing, please tell me!"
"As long as it is something I can do, I will definitely do it!"
"I...I want to know everything!"
Even though he suffered so many blows during the day, and even though he saw the ugly side of the person he admired at night that had not shown up for many years, the blows one after another did not make Xiao Qiao unable to recover.
The reason why some people go to high places and some go to low places is that under such heavy pressure, they choose completely opposite paths.
Turning pressure and grief into strength, no matter what his abilities are, Xiao Qiao is at least willing to work hard.
In this case--
Yi Xiaotian smiled slightly and said:
"I can't promise anything to the girl, but...since the girl has chosen to be on our side..."
"Well, I will definitely go all out!"
With that said, Yi Xiaotian took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Xiao Qiao, who was still sitting on the stone bench.
"All the plans are written on it. Please don't make any noise after Miss Xiao Qiao returns to the house, just wait for the opportunity quietly."
Xiao Qiao solemnly took the letter and held it tightly in his hands, nodding towards Yi Xiaotian.
so…
Yi Xiaotian's plan, which had been planned for a long time and involved almost all major interest groups in Jiangdong, as well as many women whose fates were uncertain, finally ushered in the last piece of the puzzle.
Success or failure, it all happens in an instant.
——
Yi Xiaotian said goodbye to Xiao Qiao and watched with his own eyes as Xiao Qiao quietly entered the Zhou Mansion from the back door. Then he turned around and walked away from the Zhou Mansion.
The night is still extremely peaceful.
Yi Xiaotian strolled through Wuxian County, as if the entire city was under his control.
He hummed a tune with brisk steps and walked without any scruples until he reached the East City Gate.
Here, it is not far from the prefect's mansion. Zhu Ran chose the prefect's mansion so close to the city gate to facilitate him to check the situation at the city gate at any time. From this point of view, Zhu Ran is a very competent prefect.
.
It's a pity that he met Yi Xiaotian and a group of powerful family members including Zhang Zhao who were instigated by Yi Xiaotian.
In the face of such a powerful force, even if Zhu Ran's intuition is extraordinary, as long as Yi Xiaotian does not want Zhu Ran to get close to the truth, he will have no chance to move forward.
Just like this moment——
"Everyone, come out, it's time to hit the road!"
Standing on the empty street, Yi Xiaotian shouted towards the dark alley for no reason.
Yi Xiaotian, who is not afraid of attracting the attention of the officers and soldiers, certainly has his own confidence.
after all…
Crash--the sound of wheels crushing the ground sounded.
The sounds of footsteps, breathing, and the sound of various people's clothing rubbing against each other are also endless.
The originally empty area was somehow filled with all kinds of people, as well as all kinds of carriages and horses at this moment.
"Haha, looking at Xiaoyou Zhan's expression, it seems that things just went very smoothly?"
"Do you still need to say this? As long as my benefactor takes action, how can there be any difficulties in the world?"
"Well, I'm just trying to be strict and confirm again. It's not like you... just being confident, but you will suffer big losses."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Ge, Mr. Gu, don't quarrel anymore. The east gate is about to open. If you have any quarrel, it's not too late to say it on the way!"
Lu Ji wiped the sweat from his forehead... Looking at the tense situation, although everyone was gathered together at the moment, the estrangement between the families still existed.
Now that Lu Xun had left first with the important people, Lu Ji could only stay behind to deal with the rest of the Lu family's belongings.
But...looking at it, this job is not easy.
Yi Xiaotian smiled and looked at this group of various people. Who would have thought that a month ago, he was forced into the mountains and had to fight to the death with thousands of officers and soldiers with the strength of the mountain people. Now, he
There was actually a power gathered around him that could subvert the entire Jiangdong.
It's just that Yi Xiaotian doesn't have much interest in subverting Jiangdong. It's naturally best if he doesn't fight and kill.
Therefore, he gathered so much power, in a small way, it was actually just for a few women; but in a big way, the impact on Jiangdong was no less than allowing Sun Quan to enjoy the tragic defeat of Hefei again.
As for the news that Zhu Ran sent people to collect everywhere before he fell into trouble - the news that Zhang Zhao, Gu Shao and others who participated in the banquet had returned home, it was naturally just a small cover-up.
From the very beginning, these people knew exactly what they wanted.
Therefore, a mere drink will never be a reason for them to fall for themselves - it has nothing to do with their stance and ambitions, but only the strong character they must have as people who leave their names in history.
Yi Xiaotian clapped his hands gently, and with the clear clapping sound, the city gate in the distance slowly opened a path on this inappropriate night.
Yi Xiaotian glanced around without saying anything else. Their eyes said everything.
He waved his hand gently and spat out the last words:
