Hu Hai thought for a while and suddenly asked: "Then how should we show kindness to these commanders of the Imperial Guard?"
Lin Ze smiled and replied: "Master, don't be anxious. We will wait until we return to the camp to discuss this matter. We have more important things to do right now."
Hu Hai asked in confusion: "Where else is there anything important?"
Lin Ze smiled coldly at the Wei family: "Since the Wei family dares to detain the young master, let's use the entire Wei family to make amends."
Hu Hai said with an unnatural expression: "Lin Ze, didn't we all agree to let the Wei family go? It wouldn't be appropriate to retaliate afterwards."
Lin Ze coughed lightly and said, "Young master, you have misunderstood. I am not talking about revenge on the Wei family, but on conquering the Wei family. Young master, please come in with me."
Hu Hai thought for a while and said: "Then I will go with you." Lin Ze has always been more reassuring in his work, although I was tricked by him just once.
Lin Ze and others walked to the lobby and saw the Wei family building a mourning hall.
Although Emperor Qin had issued a special order for Feng Chang to arrange Wei Yang's funeral, how could the Wei family fully accept it? However, his arms could not twist his thighs, so they could only use Wei Yang's clothes during his lifetime to replace him and prepare for the funeral.
Seeing Lin Ze and his party coming over, someone from the Wei family immediately said with an angry look on their face: "What are you murderers doing here?"
Lin Ze said calmly: "Of course there are important things to discuss. Can you make the decision? If not, go and call the person who can make the decision."
The man's expression froze, but he didn't dare to get angry, so he left in a hurry to find someone.
Not long after, Wei Li, the current head of the Wei family, came to Lin Ze with several clan elders and said indifferently: "We have received the imperial edict, and we have released Mr. Hu Hai. What else do you want to discuss?"
Lin Ze said in a deep voice: "Of course we are talking about the life and death of the Wei family."
When Wei Li heard this, his indifferent expression turned into an angry look: "My father negotiated good terms with you before he was alive. Once my father leaves, will you regret it and take revenge?"
Lin Ze sneered: "What terms have been negotiated?" Then he showed a ferocious look and said angrily: "Your Majesty took it upon himself to use force and kidnapped Mr. Hu Hai and imprisoned him in the Wei Mansion. This was not the condition that everyone agreed on. You Wei family can just say it lightly.
Do you want to expose this matter?"
Wei Li's expression was a bit unnatural. Wei Yang actually did not agree to do this at the beginning. It was he who took the lead among the rest of the Wei family and strongly demanded that there must be a backup plan to prevent Hu Hai from going back on his word.
However, now that Wei Yang has surrendered, the Wei family has successfully been pardoned. This act that almost humiliated Hu Hai brought invisible disasters to the Wei family.
But Wei Li didn't expect that Hu Hai would not even tolerate it for a moment as soon as he was let go, and immediately brought people over to look for trouble.
When things came to this, Wei Li, as the head of the Wei family, naturally had no way to escape, so he asked: "What conditions do you have?"
Lin Ze looked at Hu Hai, then nodded, which made Hu Hai confused. What was Lin Ze trying to express?
Wei Li, who was standing next to him, saw that Hu Hai was indeed resentful.
Just listen to Lin Ze say: "It is easy to resolve this matter. I will give the Wei family two choices. The head of the Wei family can consider one or two on his own."
"First, hand over the people who proposed and seconded this matter to my young master, and the matter will be revealed. However, the head of the Wei family should not think about throwing a few people to fool us, so that Lord Shang can ignore his face and
Bullying the younger ones is not something ordinary Wei family members can do."
When Wei Li heard this, his face became extremely gloomy. He wanted to sacrifice the lives of his direct clan members to make amends. He couldn't help but said, "What about the second option?"
Lin Ze smiled slightly and said: "Second, it is even simpler. The Wei family has announced that the entire family has surrendered to Young Master Hu Hai. Since the Wei family is the Young Master's sect, the Young Master will naturally not pursue the matter further."
Wei Li refused: "This is impossible. Our Wei family will never succumb to others."
A smile appeared on Lin Ze's face: "Master Wei, please don't continue to refuse. Let me analyze it with you first."
"First of all, when Sir Shang Jun was still alive, I had a serious discussion with him about this matter. Sir Shang Jun recognized that Mr. Hu Hai would protect the Wei family. This is the condition we negotiated before."
"Secondly, Lord Shang left on the charge of treason. Although His Majesty specially pardoned the Wei family, the Wei family was deprived of all their food and title, thus losing the protection of the Qin government.
As the top dignitary in the Qin Dynasty, the Wei family has countless private properties and controls countless martial arts resources. Even if the Wei family still has some strength, is the head of the Wei family absolutely sure that he can maintain this family fortune?"
"Finally, the head of the Wei family, please don't forget that the Wei family has offended Mr. Hu Hai and is in danger of destroying the family. What's more, the 100,000 imperial guards outside the city have not made any achievements and are about to return without success. How can we defend?
Are you sure you want to refuse, head of the family?"
Wei Li's face was extremely ugly. Lin Ze was still analyzing the first two points carefully. In the last sentence, he obviously put a sword on his neck and asked him if he agreed.
I couldn't help but feel endless sadness in my heart. Once my father left, would the Wei family be at the mercy of others?
If Lin Ze could hear these words in Wei Li's heart, he would definitely reply: This is a world where the weak eat the strong. Without strength, of course it can only be meat on the chopping board.
The fate of the Wei family was definitely not as good as that of the Lu family. In the final analysis, it was because Wei Yang was convicted of treason. Once this label was slapped on him, it meant that it would be more difficult to stand up.
Wei Li said with difficulty: "Is there no third way?" After speaking, he looked at Lin Ze with a hint of pleading on his face.
Lin Ze sighed and replied: "Master Wei, think about it, besides Mr. Hu Hai, is there anyone who is willing to protect the Wei family? Or is there anyone who dares to protect the Wei family? If no one protects the Wei family, the Wei family will be surrounded by wolves.
Separation and disintegration are not far away.”
After Wei Li heard this, he couldn't help but stop talking.
Lin Ze smiled brightly: "I know the head of the Wei family wants to say that there is still Mr. Fusu, but if the head of the Wei family thinks about it carefully, when the Lu family and the Confucian family were in crisis, did he protect Fusu?"
Wei Li remained silent, the Lu family collapsed, the Confucian family moved into Chang'an and was almost completely wiped out, and Fusu was indeed not necessarily reliable.
Lin Ze continued: "To be honest, if Mr. Hu Hai really only wants to conquer the Wei family, he can wait until the Wei family is in crisis before taking action. In this way, he can still gain the gratitude of the Wei family. But at that point, the Wei family will
We don’t know how many people will be killed or injured.”
"Now I want to take your Wei family into my family as early as possible, just because I promised Lord Shang to try my best to protect the Wei family. The head of the Wei family has also seen that my young master is favored by your majesty and leads the imperial guards to go to war. The Wei family is not interested in him.
Are words really that important?"
After a long time, Wei Li finally managed to say: "I want to discuss this matter with my tribe."
Lin Ze nodded slightly: "Master Wei, please take care of yourself. I and the young master are waiting here for the good news about Master Wei."
Wei Li bowed his hands to Hu Hai and then left with everyone in the Wei family.
As soon as Wei Li left, Lin Ze's smile disappeared immediately, and he said seriously to Hu Hai: "Please give the master an order to mobilize 20,000 imperial guards immediately. The Wei family is a little undecided, and we must help them make the right decision.
"
Hu Hai...are you sure you are helping others by saying this?
Hu Hai is not a fool. Lin Ze presses forward step by step and sincerely wants to take the Wei family under his command. In this way, his power will definitely increase greatly and he will have the capital to fight against Fusu.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Yingyang and another commander came over and saluted Hu Hai, indicating that the troops were in place and asking for instructions from the commander-in-chief.
Hu Hai couldn't help but look at Lin Ze, who said calmly: "The cold wind is biting, and it's not easy for the brothers. Let them go into the Wei Mansion to take shelter from the wind."
Hu Hai... is indeed the familiar Lin Ze, sinister and shameless.
Hu Hai said to Yingyang and the others: "You heard it, just do as you are told."
Soon, the Imperial Guards detached themselves into the Guards Mansion and gradually approached the main residence.
At this time, Wei Li came out of the house and said to Hu Hai: "Master Hu Hai, I have negotiated with the clan members and the Wei family does not want to be involved in the dispute anymore. Please take care of your late father and let the Wei family go."
Come on, the Wei family is willing to give up all those things outside of them, just to preserve the family."
At this time, suddenly a group of Imperial Guards came over from outside. Wei Li was stunned and couldn't help but ask: "This is..."
Lin Ze said with a smile: "Master Wei, don't worry about them. The brothers of the Imperial Guard are here to protect Young Master Hu Hai. By the way, what Master Wei just said, I and Young Master didn't hear clearly. Please say it again."
Wei Li's face turned red from suppressing his emotions, and he felt endless humiliation and grievance in his heart. Finally, he said with a dejected face: "My Wei family is willing to join Mr. Hu Hai, please take him under his wing."
Lin Ze said with a smile on his face: "That's right. Congratulations to the head of the Wei family for making a wise move. We will all be a family from now on."
