Chapter Five Hundred and Forty-Three [Story] (Part 1)
Yang Yuanqing was so humiliated by him that his face was black and blue and he was very embarrassed.
Yan Tianlu laughed loudly and said: "But I like it. What I admire most in my life is a despicable villain like you."
Yang Yuanqing said sarcastically: "Island owner, Yang is also entrusted by others to be loyal. I also ask the island owner to fulfill his promise."
Yan Tianlu nodded and said: "Of course I will help you do what I promised you, but there are a few people on the island who disagree with the killing of Hu Xiaotian."
Yang Yuanqing secretly thought to himself, you are the master of an island, who would dare to object to you? Could there be a change in this matter? Did Yan Tianlu regret it? Yang Yuanqing smiled and said: "I don't know who objects?"
Yan Tianlu coughed and said, "Come out."
Several people walked out from behind the curtain, and the leader was Chang Fanqi. Next to him were Hu Zhongyang and several Dakang navy generals. Yang Yuanqing was frightened when he saw the scene in front of him. He immediately understood what had happened.
, turned around and ran away.
Chang Fanqi had already taken great strides to chase after him. He punched the guy in the back, sending Yang Yuanqing flying and falling heavily to the ground. Yang Yuanqing's nose was bruised and his face was swollen. Before he could get up, Hu Zhongyang also caught up.
He stepped on his chest and said angrily: "How dare you frame Mr. Hu by eating food from inside and outside?"
Yang Yuanqing screamed: "Yan Tianlu, you went back on your word and broke your promise... You are worthy of being the master of an island... How can you win the trust of others with such treachery?"
Yan Tianlu chuckled and said: "I am not the one who betrayed my trust. When did I reach an agreement with you? I have always reached a tacit agreement with Hu Xiaotian. He helped rescue my son. I never owe you anything."
Chang Fanqi and Hu Zhongyang picked up Yang Yuanqing like a chicken and tied him up. Yang Yuanqing shouted: "Kill if you want. If I frown, I am not a good man."
Yan Tianlu sneered and said: "You are worthy of being called a hero when you sell things for glory, General Chang. I will leave the life to you. How you deal with it is your business."
Chang Fanqi cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, the island owner, for your kindness."
Yan Tianlu said: "The water level in the lagoon has risen. General Chang will return soon. I will also have people deliver the fresh water supplies needed for the return trip."
After Chang Fanqi thanked him, he escorted Yang Yuanqing away.
Hu Zhongyang smiled in relief and said, "Island Master, it's so hard for you to hide this from me."
Yan Tianlu looked at him with a smile and said: "What? Do you think I will be harmful to Hu Xiaotian?"
Hu Zhongyang smiled and said: "The island owner is not that kind of person."
"Maybe, in order to keep my son, I will do anything."
Hu Zhongyang asked: "Why is the island owner not afraid of Yang Yuanqing's threat?"
Yan Tianlu said: "I have lived for most of my life, and I have never seen any storms. I can still tell who is trustworthy and who is not trustworthy. Emperor Dakang wished that I killed Hu Xiaotian. If I killed Hu Xiaotian, he would also
I will not let my son go."
Hu Zhongyang said: "Hu Xiaotian is also an extraordinary person. It is not so easy for the island owner to kill him."
Yan Tianlu glared at him: "You are good at speaking up for others. What benefits did Hu Xiaotian give you, and is it worthy of your dedicated efforts for him?"
Hu Zhongyang smiled and said: "It's just that we have common interests at the moment."
Yan Tianlu sighed: "Common interests are actually the most reliable relationship in the world."
Hu Zhongyang said: "Will the young island master come to Mangjiao Island?"
Yan Tianlu shook his head: "He will not return by sea. Hu Xiaotian promised me to help him arrange a safe escape route."
Hu Zhongyang said deliberately: "Does the island owner believe him so much?"
Yan Tianlu patted Hu Zhongyang on the shoulder and said: "Common interests. Hu Xiaotian urgently needs a partner like me. At least for now, we have unlimited cooperation possibilities."
Hu Zhongyang said: "Island Master, Zhongyang has an unkind request."
Yan Tianlu raised his palm to indicate that he didn't need to say more: "I will return all your merchant ships and goods to you. I will send you to Bohai Country in two days."
Hu Zhongyang was overjoyed: "Thank you very much, island owner."
At this time, an angry voice of a girl came from outside: "Go away and let me in."
Yan Tianlu immediately heard that it was his niece Yan Nujiao who came outside. He winked at Hu Zhongyang, and Hu Zhongyang immediately chose to avoid it. At this time, Yan Nujiao broke through the guards and walked in. She was obviously haggard for many days.
, not only worried about her second brother, but also anxious about Hu Xiaotian's disappearance. She didn't know what happened on the island. Yan Tianlu sent someone to put her under house arrest, and she was closely guarded and was not allowed to step out of the hospital. She was just released today.
When she went out, Yan Nujiao found her uncle immediately. She wanted to find out what happened.
Yan Tianlu smiled and said: "Nujiao, who made you angry?"
Yan Nujiao's eyes were red, barely able to shed tears. She bit her lips and said, "Uncle, where is Hu Xiaotian?"
Yan Tianlu secretly sighed in his heart. Girls were out. He thought Yan Nujiao wanted to ask about his brother first, but he didn't expect that the first thing she cared about was the whereabouts of Hu Xiaotian. Yan Tianlu didn't expect that Yan Nujiao was already quite fond of his uncle.
There are criticisms, and they even think that he does not care about the safety of his second brother. In Yan Nujiao's heart, the only one who can be trusted at the moment is Hu Xiaotian, but Hu Xiaotian has lost his whereabouts these days.
Yan Tianlu said: "He has returned to Dongliang County."
Yan Nujiao looked at her uncle with doubts.
Yan Tianlu knew the confusion in her heart and sighed: "Nu Jiao, don't worry, I am trying my best to find Bo Guang's whereabouts. Something happened to him on Mangjiao Island. I will save him even if I give up my own life.
Otherwise, how can I have the dignity to meet your father and my eldest brother?"
Yan Nujiao said: "But how can we find his whereabouts in such a huge sea of people?"
Yan Tianlu said: "Lu Qingyuan's purpose of taking him away is to use him to blackmail me, so Boguang will not be in any danger in the short term."
Yan Nujiao said with tears in her eyes: "My second brother has always been spoiled and pampered. He can't bear the hardship."
Yan Tianlu said: "It would be nice if he was half as sensible as you."
Yan Nujiao asked about Hu Xiaotian's whereabouts again, and Yan Tianlu only said that something urgent happened in Dongliang County, and Hu Xiaotian hurried back.
While the uncle and nephew were talking, the law enforcement elder Yang Zongtong came in. He originally had something urgent to report to Yan Tianlu, but when he saw Yan Nujiao present, he immediately stopped talking. Yan Tianlu advised Yan Nujiao to go back and rest until she left.
After that, Yang Zongtong said: "Island Master, something serious has happened."
Yan Tianlu said: "Why are you so alarmed?"
Yang Zongtong said: "Something happened in the Bohai Kingdom. The second master was arrested by Yan Dongsheng. They should have received the news. At present, the whole Wanghai City has become turbulent. The Prime Minister Yuan Tianzhao has also been dismissed from his post and imprisoned. His residence has been raided. Those who are involved with him
More than thirty officials have also been put under investigation, and many businessmen implicated in Yuan Tianzhao's case have also been imprisoned." He lowered his voice and said, "I heard that even the Jubaozhai of Xue Shengjing, king of Yongyan, in Bohai Kingdom, was affected.
."
Yan Tianlu took a breath of air: "Yan Dongsheng dares to attack Xue Shengjing's property? This matter is unusual."
Yang Zongtong said: "It is still unclear what his purpose is in arresting the second master, but it is said that the second master was arrested in Yuan Tianzhao's house. It is not clear whether the second master's identity has been exposed."
Yan Tianlu clenched his fists and paced back and forth uneasily.
Yang Zongtong said: "Island Master, I think Bohai Kingdom is well prepared this time."
Yan Tianlu asked: "Is there any news about Bo Guang?"
Yang Zongtong shook his head and said: "We have inquired in many ways, but there is still no news."
Yan Tianlu said: "Follow closely the movements in Wanghai City and we must find out the whereabouts of the second child as soon as possible."
"yes"
In Prince Yan's Mansion in Yongdu, King Xue Shengjing of Yan was quietly playing with the Kowloon white jade bottle in his hand, his small eyes showing greedy and fanatical light. He had a hobby for treasures that surpassed that of beautiful women. Suddenly, there were rapid footsteps outside.
Xue Shengjing put the cup in his hand back into the wooden box, closed the wooden box, and there was a soft knock on the door. Without asking, he already knew that Ma Qingyun was here. No one would come to his Buddha Xiao Tower except him.
, let alone anyone coming to disturb him while he is admiring the treasures.
Xue Shengjing hummed, and the representative agreed that Ma Qingyun could come in.
Ma Qingyun opened the door and walked into the room. His usually calm face showed an unprecedented panic: "Your Majesty, something bad has happened."
Xue Shengjing glanced at him with some dissatisfaction and said: "Why are you so panicked? Is the sky falling?"
Ma Qingyun said: "I just received news that Bohai State has sealed off all the accounts of Jubaozhai there."
Xue Shengjing was startled when he heard this, and immediately his big fat face turned red, his little eyes bulged out, and he said angrily: "Who is Yan Dongsheng so bold? Don't you know whose property Jubaozhai belongs to? He actually got on my head.
superior?"
Ma Qingyun said: "Your Majesty, this matter is unusual. The Bohai State acted very quickly. Almost overnight, they sealed off all branches of Jubaozhai in the Bohai State, and also arrested the persons in charge of all branches. It seems that they should
It’s not a misunderstanding, it’s directly aimed at the prince.”
Xue Shengjing said angrily: "A small country like Bohai is openly opposing this king." He quickly calmed down, rolled his eyes and said: "Since he clearly knows that it is my property, he still dares to do this. How dare he do this?
…”
Ma Qingyun said: "Bohai State Prime Minister Yuan Tianzhao was arrested. I heard it was treason."
Xue Shengjing said: "Where is Yanxi Hall?"
Ma Qingyun said: "Nothing has happened against Yan Xitang yet. It's just that all the backbones of Jubaozhai have been wiped out. I'm afraid that this matter will be traced to Yan Xitang soon."
Xue Shengjing pursed his lips, his little eyes gleaming: "Yan Dongsheng doesn't have that much courage, there must be someone behind him to support him."
Ma Qingyun said: "The prince is saying..."
Xue Shengjing said coldly: "It must be someone who knows the inside story. Someone is unhappy with my Jubaozhai and is thinking about my family business."
