Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 489 The King of Chu Has Arrived
Hearing what he said, Shen Liben really didn't care about the previous problems...

When there were no other people in the hall, Shen Liben said in a deep voice, "Let's talk."

"Among the three people captured by Zeng Tai, one of them was the eyeliner that the lower officials placed next to Liu Lian, and he also dragged Liu Lian's long-term follower named Liu Kong into the water." Xiong Qitai was confused first. , which contradicts itself before:

"It was the two of them who killed Liu Lian together."

"Didn't you say that you arranged for a killer to come in and run away without anyone noticing it?!" Shen Liben was so angry that he kicked him and said, "Do you have any fucking truth?"

"Really, did I say that?" Xiong Qitai changed the subject while dodging, "That's not the point. My lord, the point is that Liu Kong reported—the king of Chu is here!"

"What king of chefs is here?" Shen Liben was stunned and said, "Where did you hire a famous chef? How dare a mere chef be king?"

"It's the King of Chu! Not the King of Kitchen, the sixth son of the current emperor, the only twin princes of Ming Dynasty, the King of Chu and His Royal Highness the King of Hai, Zhu Zhen!" Xiong Qitai's voice changed.

With so many people coming at once, can he not be afraid?

"You fart, the King of Chu is fighting against the Marquis of Nan'an on Chongming Island! He is a double prince, and he doesn't know how to avatar!" Shen Liben's first reaction was disbelief.

"It's true, Liu Kong reported that he also appeared at Liu Canzheng's home on the second day after your lord went to pay his condolences, and brought Liu Canzheng's daughter to mourn for his father." Xiong Qitai clucked his teeth involuntarily. :

"It sounds unbelievable, but King Chu is a student of Liu Bowen. The next day he went to his house for class. Liu Kong didn't know how many times he had seen him. How could he admit his mistake? And Liu Jing was also there. Do you know King Chu?"

"You still know that he is Liu Bowen's student, so why do you still want to attack Liu Lian?!" Shen Liben overturned the table and roared with red eyes: "That's it, let's attract that murderous god!" Now, just wait for the whole family to die!"

"Xiaguan originally thought that he could do everything seamlessly. He confirmed Liu Lian's conclusion that he fell into a well after drinking and died accidentally. He never expected that His Royal Highness the King of Chu would be recruited." Xiong Qitai said with tears in his voice, "My lord, what are you talking about?" It's too late, what should we do?"

"It's not us, it's you!" Shen Liben chose very realistically, and drew a clear line with this guy: "You did the whole thing, it has nothing to do with the old man, and it has nothing to do with Hu Xiang! The old man has never let you harm me." Liu Lian's life, Hu Xiang did not!"

As he said that, he threatened again in a clichéd way: "If you don't drag us into the water, we can still try to keep your family. Otherwise, we will be dismissed from office at most, but your whole family will die!"

"My lord, Shen Butang, you have a good idea." Xiong Qitai smiled wryly, no longer bowed his knees, straightened his waist and said: "We are grasshoppers on a rope, and it is impossible for you to stay out of it until now. "

"Are you threatening me?" Shen Liben pulled his face and said viciously.

"No, I'm just stating a fact." Xiong Qitai's tone became more flat, but his words became more thrilling: "Didn't you keep asking me why you wanted to kill Liu Lian? I do have other secrets... "

"I knew it." Shen Liben said bitterly: "You are not the kind of person who can die for your boss, you can only do it for yourself!"

"That's right, although I have always had conflicts with Liu Lian before, it was just a disagreement on official business, and I never thought of taking his life." Xiong Qitai said slowly:
"Besides, Jiangxi Province is my people, both black and white. I have a lot of ways to make him suffer. There is no need to use such extreme tricks... In fact, this kind of family background is noble. When Jane is an official in the heart of the emperor, it is just plating. A gold one. Even if I can't make friends with him, I don't want to offend him to death, let alone let him die."

"Then why do you still do that?!" Shen Liben growled in a low voice, "Get to the point!"

"Because there are many things, one of my filing and prosecution clerks, I don't know where his sense of justice came from, but he still wanted to climb higher. Seeing that he was being beaten by my subordinates, he secretly gave him that terrible book." Xiong Qitai whispered.

"Which one is "Regardless of the Account Book"?" Shen Liben felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was ready immediately.

"What else can it be?" Xiong Qitai nodded dejectedly.

"How can you let someone steal such a deadly thing?!" Shen Liben grabbed Xiong Qitai's collar and roared like he was about to eat people: "What did you say when I handed it to you? It's bigger than yours. Life is more important! Even if you die, you have to destroy it before you die!"

"The lower officials have been kept in the secret room all the time, but they have to be used every year, right? In order to prevent leaks, I always check the accounts with the most trusted people, and I personally guard them, and never let them take a piece of paper and ink out. Xiong Qitai lamented:

"Who would have thought that someone would have a photographic memory, secretly write down the entire account book in a few years... Sigh, I never expected it."

"Why didn't you say such a big thing earlier?!" Shen Liben asked sharply.

"Dare I say it?" Xiong Qitai said with a wry smile, "Once I tell my lord, as a lord, I will definitely be blamed, force me to commit suicide, and put all the responsibility on me."

"You..." Shen Li said in his heart that he was quite accurate in judging people.He looked at Xiong Qitai with flickering eyes, and said to himself that it's not too late to throw the blame away.

"My lord, just give up on that." Xiong Qitai smiled wryly, "I still have a secret that I haven't told you."

"Fuck..." Shen Liben didn't even have the energy to scold his mother, he really convinced Xiong Qitai, is there any truth?
"I sent the Ganjiang Gang to intercept and kill the two guards of the King of Chu. In fact, only one died. The other was injured and fell into the water with that thing. Because it was dark at that time, he was not found. But in the following month, I mobilized all my forces and searched all the lower reaches of the Ganjiang River, but I didn't find his body." Xiong Qitai said with a bit of a posture that there were too many lice and didn't bite:
"Moreover, someone found blood and footprints by the river...so there is a high possibility that he will be rescued."

"Okay, very good, very good..." Shen Liben slumped back to his chair, and gave Xiong Qitai a thumbs up: "I admire you, it's really a miracle that you can live so long."

"Your Excellency is absurd." Xiong Qitai said awkwardly.

"..." Shen Liben stared at him for a while, then suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself violently.

"My lord, don't do this, my lord." Xiong Qitai hurriedly stopped him.

"You don't need to persuade me, it would be easy for me to slap myself to death if I choose someone like you to succeed me!" Shen Liben slapped and slapped half of his face black.

Xiong Qitai secretly heaved a sigh of relief, he knew that this was a sign that Shen Liben had accepted the reality.
