Seeing Lei Zhan's confused smile, cold sweat started to flow from Zhao Hu's forehead.
Having been with Lei Zhan for many years, the person Lei Zhan admires the most is Lin Zhan.
However, Lin Zhan was the most unconvinced. There seemed to be some contradiction between the two, but in fact it was because Lei Zhan had a hurdle in his heart that he had not overcome.
In the past, Lei Zhan and Lin Zhan were in the Southern Territory and the other in the Western Territory. They couldn't fight each other with eight poles. Lei Zhan was just competing. Now that Lin Zhan has come to the Western Territory, a duel is probably inevitable.
"Lei Shuai, Lin Shuai said that he has something to do with him right now, but he must come to visit you and have some tea before leaving the Western Region."
Lei Zhan raised his eyes and glanced at Zhao Hu.
"There is no need for him to say this. When he comes to the Western Territory, I will definitely do my best to support him as a landlord."
Zhao Hu looked at Lei Zhan smiling like a fox, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart: It's a lie to invite Lin Shuai to drink, but I'm afraid it's true that he wants to compete with others.
Thinking of this possibility, Zhao Hu couldn't help but worry, what would happen if these two people fought.
Lei Zhan returned to his desk.
"Zhao Hu, please investigate secretly what exactly Lin Shuai is doing in the Western Region."
Lei Zhan believed that strange events occurred frequently in Qilin Mountain some time ago, and he once sent people to Qilin Mountain to investigate.
Who would have imagined that all the people sent out never returned, no one was alive or dead, no bodies were found, and they disappeared inexplicably.
Therefore, Lei Zhan sent a message to Lin Zhan, asking for Lin Zhan's help, and Lin Zhan agreed.
Now that Lin Zhan appears in the Western Region, Lei Zhan wants to know if he has investigated anything about Qilin Mountain.
"yes!"
Zhao Hu agreed, turned around and went out. When he returned to his residence, Zhao Hu changed into casual clothes. Since he was going to investigate Lin Zhan's visit to the West, it would be too conspicuous to wear a military uniform.
Zhao Hu wore casual clothes and took two of his cronies with him, and went directly to the hotel where Qin Rou was staying - Junrui Hotel.
At this time, Lin Zhan was drinking with Qin Rou and Liang Qiqi at the bar in the lobby.
The night before, Zhao Hu brought people to arrest Lin Zhan. Qin Rou was not present, so Qin Rou didn't know Zhao Hu. However, she also saw that Zhao Hu's identity was not ordinary.
"Lin Zhan, who is this person? Is he here to cause trouble again?"
A few days after arriving in Xicheng, accidents happened one after another, and Qin Rou felt a shadow in her heart. When she saw someone coming to see Lin Zhan, she subconsciously thought they were looking for trouble for Lin Zhan.
"Don't worry. He is my friend's subordinate. He doesn't have any ill intentions. Maybe he would like to invite me to drink some tea."
Zhao Hu stood in front of Lin Zhan respectfully.
"Mr. Lin, my general was so happy that he couldn't sleep at night after he found out that you had come to the Western Region. He couldn't wait to meet you, so he specially invited sir. He has already prepared a banquet and invites you to come over to the banquet."
After hearing this, Lin Zhan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
He had guessed Lei Zhan's quick temper a long time ago. If he knew he was coming, he would definitely not wait for him to find him when he had free time. He really guessed it right.
"Zhao Hu, your guy won't dig a hole for me and wait for me to jump into it, right?"
Lin Zhan's words were actually a joke, but Zhao Hu didn't know it. He was so frightened that cold sweat poured down his forehead and his face turned pale.
"Sir... you are really good at joking. You are the general's distinguished guest. How could you get in trouble? You are worrying too much."
Lin Zhan nodded with a smile.
"Go back and tell Lei Zhan that I will go to the appointment on time and let him prepare the wine."
Zhao Hu quickly agreed. The goal had been achieved. Zhao Hu didn't want to stay any longer and returned to the Western Region Headquarters with his confidants.
"General, I have found out the reason why Marshal Lin came to the West. Mrs. Lin's grandfather died unexpectedly in Xicheng a few days ago. The local government judged that the death was accidental. In fact, it was Leng Xiangyang from the Sihai Association. He has a heavy responsibility.
Ze and the others peeked at the secret recipe of the Nine-turn Golden Elixir in Liang Guodong's pharmaceutical factory. They tried to buy it at a low price but failed, so they killed and silenced them. Lin Shuai came to the West just now to investigate."
After hearing this, Lei Zhan's face showed anger.
"It's unreasonable. Leng Xiangyang dared to go against Lin Zhan because he had the heart of a bear and a leopard. This is not seeking death!"
Zhao Hu quickly comforted Lei Zhan.
"Lei Shuai, don't be angry. Leng Xiangyang and the others must not know Lin Shuai's identity. The reason why Lin Shuai doesn't come to you is because he doesn't want to cause you any trouble. His subordinates think that Lin Shuai alone can take care of him."
You cannot interfere with those who are trying to smooth things over for the Four Seas Association."
Others don't know, but Zhao Hu knows that Lei Zhan's nephew Leiton is a member of the Four Seas Association, and he has an extraordinary relationship with Leng Xiangyang.
Lei Zhan is upright and fair. If he comes forward, he will definitely help others and not his relatives. Once he finds out about Leiton and the old man of the Lei family finds out, it will inevitably cause an uproar.
At this moment, the guard shouted "Report!" outside the door.
Lei Zhan calmed down the anger in his heart and spoke coldly.
"Come in!"
The guard opened the door and came in.
"Reporting to the general, Master Lei and Leng Xiangyang, the responsibility is heavy. He Ze, outside the headquarters, the master said that he has something important to see you."
Lei Zhan raised his eyebrows and sneered, saying that Cao Cao is here.
"Lei Shuai, Master Lei and Leng Xiangyang are here. It must be about Lin Shuai's affairs. Don't get angry first and see what they say."
Zhao Hu spoke hurriedly at the side. He was really worried that Lei Zhan would get angry and pull him out and kill him before he could finish his words.
Lei Zhan can really do this kind of thing.
Lei Zhan glared at Zhao Hu: "I don't need you to worry about what I'm doing."
Leng Xiangyang wanted to use his own hands to get rid of Lin Zhan, but he really thought that he, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, was a fool!
"Let him in!"
The guard agreed and turned around to go out. Not long after, Leighton, who had dyed yellow hair and was dressed in fancy clothes, walked in with Leng Xiangyang and three other people.
"Second uncle, why don't you come home? Grandpa misses you."
As soon as Layton came in, he shouted at Lei Zhan, then sat down on the sofa next to him, picked up the cigarette on the table and put it into his mouth.
"Leng Xiangyang!"
"He Ze!"
"It's a big responsibility!"
"Meet Lei Shuai!"
Leiton was Lei Zhan's nephew, and he could treat Lei Zhan's headquarters as his own home, but they didn't have the guts to do so, so they bowed respectfully.
For his nephew, Lei Zhan hated iron. He had no expression on his face and looked at Leiton indifferently.
"Leyton, why don't you stay at home and come to my place?"
He also brought outsiders in, and Lei Zhan gave Leng Xiangyang and the others a cold look.
"Second uncle, they are not outsiders. They are all my friends and are well-known in Xicheng."
Lei Zhan looked at Leng Xiangyang and the others.
"Of course I know about the three giants of Xicheng Sihai Association."
When Leng Xiangyang heard this, he immediately became elated. The commander-in-chief of the Western Region knew about them, so there must be no problem with what happened today.
