After Wang Can said a word, he said again: "Li Gong, if you think that I am self-righteous, then I am self-righteous. In short, I can't cooperate with the Li family, and I don't bother to rely on the strength of the Li family to enter the center of the imperial court. As for you saying that you have offended the Li family in Longxi
, there is nothing we can do about it, I have offended many people, including you and two."
Li Xiong's face suddenly turned dark.
Wang Can is really arrogant and arrogant, and he is arrogant and arrogant. Even the Li family doesn't take him seriously.
Li Xiong opened his mouth to speak, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly swallowed them back. Because he suddenly thought of something, whether it was the Cui family or the Shandong big family who threatened Wang Can, they would all come back in vain.
All ended in failure.
Although the Li family in Longxi is strong, it may not be much stronger than the Kong family in Shandong.
Not to mention the big families in Shandong.
Therefore, Li Xiong originally wanted to say harsh words, but suddenly he changed his previous attitude and stopped being aggressive. However, Li Xiong did not give Wang Can a good look, bowed his hands and bowed, and left.
When Wang Can saw this, the corners of his mouth raised, showing a mocking look.
The Li family in Longxi is nothing more than that.
Wang Can could roughly guess Li Xiong's next plan, but Wang Can didn't care.
Li Xiong returned to the inn where he lived, his breathing still a little short. He originally thought that it would be easy to convince Wang Can when he went north to Liucheng County, Liaoxi County, and since Wang Can married Li Xiuning.
But now, it has been shut down.
His head was bruised and bloody.
Li Xiong thought in his heart. After a while, he made a plan in his mind. He called the attendants who were accompanying him and said, "Go to the governor's house immediately and ask Li Xiuning to come to the inn."
"yes!"
The attendant received the order and immediately went to deliver the message.
Li Xiong is still sitting in the house, thinking about dealing with Wang Can. Things have reached the current point, even if Li Xiong wants to ease the relationship with Wang Can, it is impossible.
Under this premise, Li Xiong has no intention of touching Wang Can's brow anymore.
While Li Xiong was thinking, half an hour passed by in a blink of an eye.
"Tap! Tread!"
The sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.
Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door from outside the room, but it was the attendant who said: "Mr. Li, the third lady is here."
Li Xiuning ranked third under Li Yuan, so she was called the third lady.
But now Li Xiuning is a married woman for the first time.
She is already Wang Can's person.
Especially after seeing Wang Can's strength and knowing how powerful Wang Can was, Li Xiuning was not worried about Wang Can. Because Wang Can was strong enough, even those who criticized Wang Can could not have any effect.
When Li Xiong heard what the attendant said, he immediately became excited and said: "Please!"
Crunch!
The door was pushed open, but Li Xiuning stepped in.
Although Li Xiuning today's appearance is not particularly outstanding, neither voluptuous nor charming, as soon as Li Xiuning stands there, she has an extraordinary demeanor that attracts people. Especially now that Li Xiuning has become Wang Can's woman and is a wife for the first time.
His temperament is more mature, and even though his appearance is not very stunning, it is impossible to ignore.
After Li Xiuning entered, he bowed and saluted Li Xiong and said: Xiuning has met my great-uncle."
Li Xiong said: "Sit down!"
Li Xiuning lifted up her robe and sat down, smiling and said: "I don't know that my great-uncle arrived in Liucheng, but I didn't meet you from afar, so I ask my uncle's forgiveness. Alas, why didn't you notify me when you came to Liucheng? If my uncle had informed you in advance,
It would be better for us to greet you in advance."
Li Xiong flicked his sleeves and said, "You don't have to be so polite."
After a pause, Li Xiong said: "Xiuning, I arrived in Liucheng today. Moreover, I had already entered the governor's mansion and met Wang Can in person. However, I parted ways with Wang Can on bad terms."
A flash of light flashed across Li Xiuning's eyes.
She knew Li Xiong's intentions.
She understood better the reason for the unhappy separation.
She and Wang Can had discussed this matter a long time ago, so they were no strangers to it.
Li Xiuning didn't say anything, with a faint smile on his face and said: "Uncle, my husband married me, which means he is a member of the Li family. You and your husband have something to do, why don't you talk it over? We are all a family, sit down
Come down and talk about it. As long as we talk about it, it won't be a problem."
This is a way to make peace.
She knew that Li Xiong was definitely trying to win over Wang Can, but he would definitely fail.
Li Xiong sighed and said: "Xiuning, our Li family has no intention of dealing with Wang Can, nor does it have any intention of targeting Wang Can. I came to see Wang Can this time, in fact, because
Hello Wang Can."
"Our Li family is willing to help Wang Can enter the center of the imperial court, provided that Wang Can serves our Longxi Li family."
"In fact, Wang Can married you, and you are a member of my Li family in Longxi."
"It is also equivalent to serving the Li family in Longxi."
"This time I came here purely to give Wang Can a favor, but he didn't appreciate it. Our Longxi Li family is willing to strongly support him. This is his opportunity and his luck."
Li Xiong stroked his beard under his chin and said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect that Wang Can would be so ungrateful. Xiuning, I tell you, if Wang Can doesn't serve the Li family and waits for his results, he will only be suppressed.
You are from the Li family in Longxi, so you should know the meaning of my words. No resistance is allowed in Longxi Hall."
Li Xiuning frowned.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiong's attitude was so tough.
However, Li Xiuning was also disappointed in her heart. She had been in contact with Wang Can, so she understood Wang Can's character. She especially knew Wang Can's talent and ability, so Li Xiuning knew better that Li Xiong's attitude would eventually lead to failure.
This is certain.
Before Li Xiuning could speak, Li Xiong said again: "Xiuning, originally the family married you to Wang Can so that you could influence Wang Can. Now, Wang Can is unwilling to cooperate with the family, so he needs you to blow the pillow.
Let Wang Can work for us."
Li Xiuning said: "Uncle, I will do my best."
Li Xiong flicked his sleeves and said decisively: "It's not about trying your best, but about going all out. In this matter, we can only succeed and not fail. We must persuade Wang Can and let Wang Can work for us."
Li Xiuning said: "I will persuade you."
A cold light flashed across Li Xiong's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Xiu Ning, you should know that those who do not cooperate with the family will not end up well in the end. If Wang Can insists on not cooperating and not serving the family. Such a person
, can never be left behind. So when you persuade, you must do your best."
"yes!"
Li Xiuning nodded in agreement.
But there was a hint of coldness in Li Xiuning's eyes when she looked at Li Xiong.
She looked down on an old man like Li Xiong, who showed off his power in front of her like he was a senior member of the Li family. If she hadn't wanted to compromise and temporarily stabilize Li Xiong, she would have just fought back.
Nowadays, Li Xiuning just doesn't fight back.
Li Xiong waved his hand and said: "Go ahead, I'll wait for your news. You must give me news tonight at the latest."
"knew."
Li Xiuning didn't waste any time, got up and left.
She is now Wang Can's person.
Although Li Xiuning promised Li Xiong, in fact, Li Xiuning was just showing up. After she left the residence, she went straight back to the county governor's house.
Li Xiuning went to the study room. After seeing Wang Can, she said straight to the point: "Husband, Li Xiong from the Li family in Longxi just now is my great-uncle. She asked me to come back to persuade you. I hope you will serve the Li family in Longxi."
"At that time, I was just persuading someone to persuade me."
"The next step is to reject him."
"After this rejection, Mrs. Li from Longxi will definitely become angry and even want to deal with her husband."
Li Xiuning said: "Husband, do you have any countermeasures for this?"
Wang Can smiled softly and said calmly: "The Li family in Longxi is nothing to mention. If the Li family doesn't come to provoke me, then that's it. If the Li family in Longxi just gives up, then I won't care.
.”
Li Xiuning said: "What your husband said is true."
Now, she is on Wang Can's side and considers Wang Can wholeheartedly. Therefore, if the Longxi Li family wants to deal with Wang Can, it means they have to deal with her, Li Xiuning, which Li Xiuning doesn't like.
Wang Can patted Li Xiuning's shoulder and said, "I'm sorry, madam."
"I am not wronged!"
Li Xiuning shook his head and answered.
She is an extremely decisive person. Once she has made a decision, there will be no hesitation. So even if Li Xiuning is caught in the middle, there is nothing to worry about.
This is Li Xiuning's consideration and position. When Wang Can heard this, a smile appeared on his face. With Li Xiuning's words, Wang Can was confident.
He believes in Li Xiuning.
The two talked, and after a while, Li Xiuning left and returned to his yard. Near evening, Li Xiuning got up and left the house again, and began to go to the place where Li Xiong lived.
Arriving at Li Xiong's residence, Li Xiuning saw Li Xiong and said sternly: "Uncle, I have told you everything about my husband. It's just that this time, my uncle was disappointed."
Li Xiong said: "Why, he doesn't agree."
"yes!"
Li Xiuning nodded and said solemnly: "My husband said that he will not serve the Li family in Longxi, he will only serve the imperial court. So my persuasion has failed. It is impossible for my husband to be used by the Li family."
"Asshole!"
When Li Xiong heard this, he yelled.
There was anger in his voice.
The dignified Li family in Longxi, a world-famous family, was specifically willing to give Wang Can a step forward, and was even willing to fully support Wang Can and help Wang Can rise to power. However, Wang Can was so shameless and uncooperative at all, which is really disappointing.
anger.
Li Xiuning stood below, looking calm.
For Li Xiuning, this is not a big deal, because she has seen bigger battles. Especially if an old guy like Li Xiong died long ago, Longxi Hall would be better.
A cold look flashed across Li Xiong's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Xiuning, since Wang Can is so disrespectful and refuses to drink wine as a penalty, then our Li family will not keep Wang Can. You are
His wife, he is not prepared for you. This time, the family has ordered that you kill Wang Can to avoid future troubles."
