He's Bad (Part 2)

The 50,000-tael mission to kill the corrupt official was issued through the Dark Building and was supposed to be top secret.

The one who killed the Gray Lion was Song Tianxing, the second best killer of the Black Heaven Gate, as well as the number one assassin on the Heavenly List.

In the conversation with Lu Gaosheng, Li Xing also noticed something wrong.

Li Xing asked, "Does Sir mean that Minister Song..."

Lu Gaosheng raised his hand and said, "I still can't confirm it now. My father-in-law has always been cautious in doing things. There are doubts but no evidence. But at least through this matter, we can infer that whether it's the Black Heaven Gate or the Dark Building, it's possible that they are related to that old fox Song YanShi."

Li Xing sighed and said, "After so many years, Sir has spent so much effort and borrowed the Bai Family's relationship, but in the end he could only confirm that the JinWan Pavilion and Minister Song have no connection."

Lu Gaosheng said, "It's not easy to achieve this much. With the help of the Baijun Marquis, this is why I have to cooperate with the JinWan Pavilion."

Li Xing hesitated and said, "But Sir, there is one thing I don't know if I should say..."

Lu Gaosheng glanced at him and said, "I know what you want to say, but the maritime smuggling and trading with those island countries, although they have made some money, they have outlets. Especially the Bai Lu Army spends a lot, so for the JinWan Pavilion, we still have to rely on their financial strength for the time being."

Li Xing said, "Sir... is plotting against the tiger after all."

Lu Gaosheng casually said, "The JinWan Pavilion has wanted to get involved in the Tian Ge Prefecture for more than a day or two. Their territory in the north is closest to the Tian Ge Prefecture. Opening up the Tian Ge Prefecture is the key for them to expand south! I can bring them benefits, they will help me, interests are an unstoppable knife, and the best bridge to build trust."

Li Xing nodded.

Lu Gaosheng sighed, "Those fools in the Dawu Country's court have indulged the Jianghu for too long..."

Lu Gaosheng clearly understood that the current influence of the so-called "Jianghu Grassland" on the situation in Dawu Country is fundamentally different from 20 years ago.

Although in terms of army, the troops and horses and overall strength in the hands of the prefects of each prefecture are absolutely superior to those of the various gang forces.

But if you just talk about martial arts masters, just look at Tian Ruo Mansion. As the prefect, he only has more than 20 ground-level martial artists under him, while the Green Sword Sect and the Black Dragon Hall both have the same number of martial artists, which shows that in terms of martial arts masters, the Jianghu has surpassed the government.

As for the top-notch celestial-level martial arts masters, there are only two people, the General Who Guards the North and the General Who Guards the South, in the entire Dawu Country's military department who have reached the celestial level. While in the Jianghu, the rough estimate of martial arts masters has reached nearly six.

That is to say, if you only talk about celestial masters, the Jianghu exceeds the court by three times!

There is also financial strength. Especially the three major gangs of Black Heaven Gate, Dark Building and JinWan Pavilion, their financial strength is comparable to that of several major aristocratic families in the south.

However, all this is related to the indulgence of the temple.

So in Lu Gaosheng's eyes, the court of Dawu Country is just a group of stupid pigs.

It’s okay to use the Jianghu people to make money, but because of excessive indulgence, they have raised them so fat that even the Black Heaven Gate has set its sights on the 30,000 elite cavalry of the Tian Ge Prefecture!

Lu Gaosheng looked down at his palm.

On his right hand, the exquisite white jade cloud-patterned ring was still so delicate.

I, Lu Gaosheng, won’t be as stupid as them.

Plot against the tiger?

Whether it’s Song YanShi or JinWan Pavilion.

We still have to see who is the real tiger!

At this moment, a servant outside the garden was slowly walking over with an exquisite box, stopping at the entrance of the garden, bowed and said, "Sir, the gift box is ready."

Lu Gaosheng said indifferently, "Put it outside, you can withdraw."

"Yes." The servant respectfully withdrew.

Li Xing asked, "Is Sir going out?"

Lu Gaosheng said, "I will be very busy later, so I'm going to do something while I have free time."

......

......

In the evening on a small street in the south of Tian Ruo City, Wang Xiaoer walked to the entrance of the tofu shop, looked around, but didn't dare to go in for a while.

Although he had done a preliminary investigation beforehand and this shop should be run by Bai Xiaoyu’s mother, Wang Xiaoer was still a little nervous about meeting his future mother-in-law.

But men still have to face this hurdle!

So after much deliberation, Wang Xiaoer still stepped into the small shop.

"We're closed..." The woman in white was bending over to tidy up. Hearing the footsteps, she looked up and said.

But this glance made both the woman in white and Wang Xiaoer stunned for a moment...

The woman in white thought: a little boy in black holding two big sticks of candied haws? It was a child she had never seen before.

If Zhang San was here, he would be able to recognize that this woman was the woman he had seen in the execution ground in the city before.

Wang Xiaoer thought: What a beautiful aunt, and... he didn't know why, although she didn't look like his own mother, the feeling she gave him was similar to his mother!

His mother always looked tired.

The woman in white also gave Wang Xiaoer the feeling that she was tired from doing physical work.

"You are..." The woman in white wondered.

Wang Xiaoer solemnly nodded at the woman holding two sticks of candied haws and said, "Hello Auntie, my name is Wang Xiaoer. I'm a child with normal values, sensitive feelings. Although I don't have a monthly salary at the moment, I have a very bright future, and... I'm a good person!"

The woman was really stunned now.

It was understandable that a child gave such a structured self-introduction. But in the words... it seemed that there was something strange despite seemingly nothing wrong.

Wang Xiaoer added, "I am Xiaoyu's friend and I came to play with her. Auntie, is Xiaoyu home?"

The woman in white called back, "Xiaoyu, come here for a second."

Then Bai Xiaoyu came jogging out into the hall.

Wang Xiaoer smiled happily and said, "Xiaoyu, do you still remember me?"

Bai Xiaoyu was slightly surprised: "Wang Xiaoer? You came again?"

The woman in white looked sideways at Bai Xiaoyu and asked incomprehensibly, "Came again?"

Wang Xiaoer immediately held up two large sticks of candied haws behind the woman.

Bai Xiaoyu immediately understood and explained to her mother, "Yes, mother, when you went out to buy beans yesterday, Xiaoer came to play with me, and Wang Xiaoer has never jumped over the fence in the backyard, and I have never eaten his candied haws."

Wang Xiaoer almost fell to the ground in exasperation.

The first half of the sentence was still good, but the second half was simply outrageous!

Although Bai Xiaoyu's silly look explaining was still so cute, Wang Xiaoer still couldn't help but wonder why children these days don't seem to be very smart, not even half as smart as him, Wang Xiaoer!

The woman in white turned around...

Wang Xiaoer was sweating profusely on his forehead.

From the woman's eyes, Wang Xiaoer had a premature taste of the kind of pressure that only adult men would feel!

At that moment, a handsome man in black brocade robe came to the front of the tofu shop in the evening.

The woman in white instinctively stood in front of Bai Xiaoyu and whispered, "Go to the backyard."

Seeing the man outside, Bai Xiaoyu hurriedly pulled Wang Xiaoer to the backyard.

Wang Xiaoer's wrist was grabbed by Bai Xiaoyu's soft palm. Although the first "skin-to-skin contact" made Wang Xiaoer feel light and fluttering inside, he still couldn't help asking, "What's wrong? You and your mother look like..."

Bai Xiaoyu pulled Wang Xiaoer to run to the backyard and whispered, "I don't know, anyway, my mother said he is a bad person."
