Chapter 56 What I want is not a rebellion!

"Master!"

In that unknown house back then, it was still the same study room. The mysterious Mr. Shang was holding a book in his hand and thinking about it carefully. Even when his shadow guard appeared behind him and called him, he didn't do anything.

Pay attention.

It wasn't until I finished reading the page I turned to and carefully wrote down my thoughts and annotations with a brush that I closed the book.

"Here we come."

He gently put the brush back on the pen holder and spoke in a calm tone.

"yes."

The shadow guard was the same as before, standing behind him and listening to his orders since he appeared.

"The time has come. Tonight, you accompany me to meet two people."

While he was talking, he rubbed his temples with his hands. He probably felt tired after reading for a long time.

"Yes, I wonder who the two people the master is planning to meet are?"

The shadow guard behind him asked cautiously.

"Hua Xueji of the Hehuan Sect and Liu Huikou of the Weixin Sect."

After hearing what Mr. Shang said, the shadow guard nodded after thinking for a while, but then he looked a little hesitant to speak.

"Hua Xueji is best sent away. It is enough to grant her the official title of a famous family conferred by the imperial court. The worst is to compensate her with some silver and land for the purpose of establishing the clan. But what about Liu Huikou? He has always been greedy for money and power, so he only needs to give them

A hereditary and irreplaceable prince title plus a salary for the leader of the Weixin Sect is enough. At present, these two people are the only ones who are sure to win!"

Mr. Shang saw the shadow guard hesitate to speak, but he didn't pay attention to it, but focused on his own analysis.

"Head of the family, this title of an authentic sect is easy to say and has no practical significance. But canonizing the prince and adding a salary is not a trivial matter. Moreover, the prince can choose to fief the land. When the time comes, if... Isn't the price too high?

…!”

Logically speaking, as a guard, he shouldn't say these words, but considering the changes in the situation in the future, he had to say this.

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Mr. Shang carefully, fearing that he would be angered by these words that were beyond the rules. He didn't know what kind of ecstasy soup Mr. Shang poured into him to make him so worried and scared.

Fortunately, instead of blaming Mr. Shang, he explained to him.

"If he can really help us achieve great things, why not give him a prince in name only. Besides, although the promise is a hereditary and irreplaceable throne, can't we find a way to get it back in ten or twenty years? Then?

At that time, the idealism sect was only qualified to be our lackey. If he dared to disobey us, we would kill him with a flip of our hands!".

"It's better for the head of the family to think long-term."

After listening to Mr. Shang's explanation, the shadow guard looked convinced. He only saw the second level of the matter, and Mr. Shang had already reached the fifth level.

"It's still early, go down and wait for me!"

"yes."

After the shadow guard finished speaking, he disappeared into the room, while Mr. Shang chose to close his eyes and take a nap. Soon, slight snoring could be heard.

When the manpower was exhausted, Mr. Shang felt physically and mentally exhausted from the days of hard thinking since the major sects entered the capital.



At night, business in Huimenglou is still booming. The most indispensable thing in the capital is beauties with beautiful faces and figures, as well as rich men with large sums of money in their pockets who have nothing to spend.

And Mu Xian'er, the oiran who is known as the best in both sex and art in the whole capital, is in the Dream Tower, so there are countless people who come to the Dream Tower to spend a lot of money.

Tonight, two masked men offered a lot of money to win Miss Xian'er's favor. They offered a high price of five thousand taels. Someone raised the price and immediately raised the price to ten thousand taels!

At this scene, even the other wealthy businessmen and gentry who were drinking and having fun in Huimenglou had to express their generosity together!

After entering the room, Mu Xianer had just set up the guqin and was about to play when she was stopped by one of the two masked men.

"I've heard for a long time that Miss Xian'er has outstanding piano skills. I should appreciate it carefully tonight, but there are some important matters that I have to discuss with your master. I would like to trouble Miss Xian'er to ask the master of your sect to come out and see her."

It was the one who took advantage of the darkness to come to Hui Meng Tower

Mr. Shang and his shadow guard, he deliberately chose this way to meet each other.

The first is to avoid arousing suspicion. It is not only businessmen in Beijing who like this girl Xian'er's piano skills, but also high-ranking officials and nobles, such as Prince Chu Wushuang.

However, if those high-ranking officials and nobles dare to openly enter the brothel, they will be impeached and disgraced by the self-proclaimed censors the next day.

Therefore, they all have the habit of masking themselves when they come, which makes their masking less obtrusive.

Another option is to throw a small sum of ten thousand taels to explore the road, which can be regarded as a meeting gift.

"Do you know that the sect master is my master?"

You know, in this capital, no one knew that she was Hua Xueji's apprentice. Even if some people guessed it, they couldn't provide evidence, but this person revealed her origins at once, which made her

I felt very surprised.

"Hahaha! If Shang Mou had some doubts before, but now, hasn't Miss Xian'er admitted it herself?"

Mr. Shang didn't want to dwell on this for too long. It would be difficult if she noticed something, so he just made an excuse and pretended that it was his guess.

"Why did you come to see my master?"

Mu Xianer also knew that some issues should not be explored in depth, but some issues must be known, such as the purpose of his coming here.

"I want to see Master Hua, mainly because I have a business to discuss, which will be beneficial to both of you and me. But for the specific things, I have to trouble the girl to invite your master out."

Mu Xian'er looked at him with confusion for a while, but Mr. Shang didn't explain anything and just let her look at him.

Then, she looked at the other masked man behind him and spoke after confirming that he was serious.

"Please wait a moment, distinguished guest, while I go ask my master to come out."

"It's time to work."

Mr. Shang's tone remained calm.



"Master, there is a person who wants to see you and says he has a business to discuss. What kind of business it is specifically? He said he would tell you only after meeting you."

In Hua Xueji's private secret room, in the battle between good and evil, she exerted a lot of effort, but was also injured. At this moment, she was still doing her exercises and regulating her breathing, but was interrupted by Mu Xian'er who came in.

"Want to do business with me? Do you know who he is? I won't do it if the business is small."

As before, the charm in Hua Xueji's words has not diminished at all.

"Back to Master, the man is wearing a mask. We don't know his specific identity, but the guard who accompanied him is very special."

What Mu Xianer said made Hua Xueji interested in this so-called business.

"So, I'm looking forward to it! Let's go meet him then!"



"You two distinguished guests came to visit our Hehuan Sect, but you were not welcomed from afar. Please make atonement for your sins!"

Hua Xueji hasn't stepped into the room yet, but the conversation has already begun.

"Hahaha, Sect Master Hua has everything to do all day long, but idlers like us have nothing to do all day long!"

"I heard that your guest wants to cooperate with me on business. Now that I have arrived, why don't you come and listen?"

Faced with Mr. Shang's compliments, Hua Xueji did not continue to go around, but chose to go straight to the topic.

"I'm ashamed to say that I can't explain the specific layout plan to Sect Master Hua, but Sect Master Hua just needs to know that we want to borrow your sect's force."

When the real master came, even Mr. Shang did not dare to be as casual as he was when facing Mu Xianer. No matter the tone or way of speaking, he became serious.

"What you are saying is meaningless. Even if you are doing ordinary business, I have to inspect the goods first. If you do this, you will appear to be insincere."

Hua Xueji poured herself a cup of tea, picked it up with her hands, but did not drink it in a hurry.

"Hahaha! What Sect Master Hua said is true, but the sincerity does not necessarily have to be inspected. Sect Master Hua just needs to know that we can give you what you want most."

At this time, Mr. Shang completely transformed into a businessman and was haggling with Hua Xueji one by one.

"Then tell me, what do I want most?"

This time, Hua Xueji took a sip of tea and looked relaxed.

"Actually, the main thing of the Hua Sect is very simple. Get rid of the name Hehuan Sect Demon Sect, and then, like other righteous sects, govern a city and have a mountain gate of its own."

After listening to Mr. Shang's words, Hua Xueji's hand holding the tea cup suddenly tightened, and she almost crushed the cup.

"Why should I trust you to give me these things?"

She tried to stay calm and then spoke.

"Master Hua can not believe in Shang, but he cannot not believe in 'us'!"

"You! There is someone behind you! Moreover, you are from the imperial court!"

"Hehehe!"

Mr. Shang did not speak, but smiled slightly. He neither admitted nor denied what Hua Xueji said.

"who are you!?"

Hua Xueji's eyes flashed with a sharp look.

"It is not convenient for me to tell Sect Leader Hua my identity now. When the time comes, I will tell you frankly. Whether this business can be successful or not is entirely in the hands of Sect Master Hua. The opportunity is rare, and it depends on whether your sect is willing to fight for it.

Done."

This time, Mr. Nashang calmed down, took a cup, poured himself a cup of tea and tasted it.

However, Hua Xueji fell into thinking. For the next time, one of them drank tea quietly, and the other pondered.

At this point, what needs to be said has been said, so there is no need to waste any more words.

"Since Sect Leader Hua can't make up his mind at the moment, he should think about it slowly and then send the news to Tailong Cloth Shop in the west of the city."

After Mr. Shang finished three cups of tea, Hua Xueji's face was still uncertain, so she had no choice but to leave first.

If he waits any longer, Hua Xueji will see through his need for help, and even if she agrees in the end, she will ask for more.

The time to leave now is just right, which not only shows that I am patient enough, but also shows that I am not in desperate need of her as a helper.

"I will consider carefully what Mr. Shang said. Once I have made up my mind, I will pass the news on. This matter still needs to be discussed with some elders of our sect, so I will not send Mr. Shang away."

"It's okay, Shang Mou takes his leave."

After saying that, he left with the shadow guard without showing any signs of strangeness.

Hua Xueji kept looking at his back until he went downstairs and disappeared, then sat back on the chair and continued thinking.



"Master, what are the chances that Hua Xueji will agree to us?"

After returning to Menglou, the shadow guard had a chance to speak, and Mr. Shang smiled confidently in front of the question raised by the shadow guard.

"Ten percent!"

Before Shadow Guard could speak, he continued.

"Human greed is the most terrifying thing. After I told Hua Xueji about the benefits, she would think more and more about the benefits when she thought about the problem, and the risks of doing things would be overshadowed by her.

Unconsciously, she will have to refuse from the beginning, or she will have to agree to us!"

After listening to Mr. Shang's words, the hesitation that Ying Wei had had before appeared on his face again.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't hide it."

This time, Mr. Shang no longer pretended to turn a blind eye.

"Master, actually I think the best partner to cooperate with is the Demon Sect!"

Suddenly, Mr. Shang stopped and turned to stare at the shadow guard for a long time. Unexpectedly, he raised his hand and slapped the shadow guard.

The slap was very heavy, and the shadow guard did not dare to hide. Fortunately, his face was covered, otherwise, there would definitely be a red palm mark on the shadow guard's face.

"Remember, what I want is just to find a way out for my family and leave stability for my descendants, not to rebel!"

"Yes, head of the family! I know my mistake!"

The shadow guard buried his head very low, but Mr. Shang stopped where he was, with memories flashing in his eyes.

"How many old brothers died before we conquered this country!"
