Xu Ziling sighed and said, “Too bad we practically are unable to find this opportunity His Bu Si Huan, you have seen it yourself! It makes people want to attack but cannot attack, want to defend but cannot defend”

“How’s the situation on Meiren’er Changzhu?” Kou Zhong asked
Xu Ziling gave him a quick summary, and then spoke dejectedly, “Shall we pass on what Meiren’er Changzhu said to ErGe?”
Kou Zhong laughed and said, “It’s not worth you are frustrating over it, the rant heart is ulti’s! If you could help du, I have the confidence that Li shi+ his brows, Xu Ziling said, “You, this kid, are like this for a time, and like that another time Previously I said I would help you, you did not see, but now you are afraid that I won’t help”
Kou Zhong s hard just now Hureedy for life, afraid of death! How can I, Kou Zhong, be an exception? Only with you, Ling Shao and Fenghan willing to fight side by side with ht, whether we can kill shi+ Zhixuan or not, you and I will proceed separately Xiaodi will i, to train my Shao Shuai Army in the battle tactics that I learned outside the Great Wall And then, when you co the Xiao to Bashu, ill idu With the addition of Yang Gongqing and Old Ba, we can squeeze Li Zitong’s eggs out Ha! Suddenly I a spirit and confidence My dominance will reach the vast, boundless ocean If I could seize the opportunity by having Hainan under my banner, the coastal area will have to take order only frohed and said, “You, this kid, finally recover your confidence!”
Kou Zhong said, “Currently Li Yuan’s power is greatly increasing, while Li Yuanji has the de has a close relationshi+p with the Tujue Although Li shi+min considers himself unexcelled on the battlefield in the world, but returning to Chang’an, his share will only be to wait to be slaughtered Now it becoive thought to the co about this point, hence I a spirit This is also the reason why Ling Shao is willing to be drawn into the great vortex of the contention for hege was about to respond when they heard footsteps Hastily, being a quick-witted, he spoke in rough voice, “His granny’s! I don’t knohat bird trick that casino dealer was using, it was clearly s, and thus I had to lose a hundred taels of silver”
Chi Shengchun’s laughter caa,” he said
With Lei Jiuzhi showing the way, Chi Shengchun strode into the hall Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, while cursing inwardly, stood up to greet hichun the opportunity to talk, he said, “I still have soentlemen please take care of Chi Laoban on , he left the inner hall
The three men moved to the table in thelike an old friend, Chi Shengchun lowered his voice and spoke conspiratorially, “With two gentleht, hence I have no scruple Hearing that you owe so if you could let Xiaodi spend a little effort in this regard?”
Pretending to be grateful, Kou Zhong said, “Chi Laoban is indeed a true friend, but …”
Chi Shengchun tactfully cut hi of wealth Cooing to take it away” While saying that, he took out a purse froold, and put it on the table
The two boys’ four eyes ichun smiled and said, “Just a small token of appreciation, not a tribute, furtherchun, aentlemen must not try to payback even ’an and ask what kind of person a, he rose up to his full height, acting like he was leaving

Chi Shengchun laughed and said, “We are both friends and brothers, what’s a old between us? Polite words are not needed, if you say it, it would appear that there is no friendly relation between us”
And then he sighed and said, “It’s a pity that you guys are leaving today, otherwise I would surely invite you to the Six-Happiness to ga was amused inwardly, but outwardly he spoke respectfully, “We are only going away te Money business”
Beating the snake following the stick, Chi Shengchun said with a frown, “Didn’t Da Laoban co like this, won’t he be afraid of the threat to his life?”
As early as when Chi Shengchun stepped into the hall, Xu Ziling already thought about what to say, because even though ‘Situ Furong’ did not need to tell the reason, they could not go with the tide by not telling it
Lowering his voice, he said, “We only tell Chi Ye, one person This ti in a hurry is precisely to see so Clan’s power is so great, if ant to expand our business in the south, we have no choice but to look up at Song Que’s face Fortunately Da Laoban asked a ift, this o smoothly This is a secret, Chi Laobanand I won’t be able to guarantee our rice bowl, Longtou [boss/chief] chun revealed a relieved expression Kou Zhong cried, ‘Wonderful!’ inwardly, because that was really the best reason to leave Chang’an ier’s neck must untie it [idiom]

Kou Zhong spoke in delight, “It is indeed the ‘Han Lin Qing Yuan Tu’ How did Li Yuan explain his action in stealing it?”
Song shi+dao laughed and said, “Fancy that he could co has always been in his collection It was not until Chi Shengchun had his painting stolen that he knew there are reproductions circulating outside, whichYuan Tu’ in his hands is the genuine or the fake, hence the reason he looked for me to verify its authenticity Due to this s, he ordered , of course, our Furong Ye”
“Pouring out lies,” Kou Zhong spoke disdainfully, “No wonder he could promise to set up Li shi+min as the crown prince, but turn his head and overthrow his pro was in Chi Shengchun’s hand, how could he sent Liu Wenjing over to force Chi Shengchun to present the painting?”
