In the hall, the atmosphere was a little tense.
After Wang Renbiao finished speaking, he stared at Li Zexuan, hoping that he would agree.
Wang Yu was silent for a moment and said, "Our Wang family was in the wrong in the kidnapping of Xuefeng Stockade. We are willing to pay some price in exchange for forgiveness. If Mr. Li has any requests, you can tell me. I just hope that you can save my son's life."
Wang Yu paused and said with a sad expression, "No matter what, Ren Yi is my child. I'm almost fifty years old. To be honest, I've already become indifferent to fame and fortune. I only hope that Ren Yi and Ren Yi can be safe and sound. I hope that Li Xiannan can understand me from a father's point of view. If Mr. Li can be merciful this time, our whole Wang family will remember this kindness in the future. "
Li Zexuan was speechless. Although Wang Yu had been in a high position for many years, at this moment, he was just like an old father. Only, Li Zexuan didn't understand. With such an irresolute and indecisive personality, how had he managed to get to the position of Patriarch? In the novels in his previous life, the heads of the big families should be indifferent and ruthless. Everything should be based on the interests of the family.
"Provincial Governor Wang, since you said so, and cousin Renyi did provide me with a lot of help in the kidnapping that day, then let's forget about this matter. But I don't want Wang Renyi to jump out and harm my relatives in the future. Otherwise, I will definitely kill him at all costs.
At that time, even if the Cui and Wang families attack me together, I will not be afraid. The seven big families have been high and mighty for thousands of years. Others are afraid of them, but I am not. At worst, I will pierce a hole in the sky. "
Li Zexuan thought about it. This time, he really could not kill Wang Renyi. Putting aside the friendship between Wang Yu and Wang Renbiao and the pressure from the Cui and Wang families, Li Er had protected Wang Renyi before. Moreover, after the incident that day, Wang Renyi, a villain, had escaped in advance. Now, except for Wang Yu and Wang Renbiao, no one knew where Wang Renyi was. Fortunately, he gave up and did Wang Renbiao a favor.
However, he still had to take precautions. If there was a next time, even if Li Zexuan had to chase him to the ends of the earth, he would still kill Wang Renyi with his sword.
Wang Yu was delighted at first, but when he heard Li Zexuan's murderous words, he was shocked. This young man was only fourteen or fifteen years old, but he had such a strong murderous aura.
"Don't worry, County Magistrate Li. That unfilial son has already been imprisoned by the clan's Punishment Hall. He won't come out to do evil again. For this matter, our Wang Family owes you a favor. If Li Xiannan needs any help in the future, feel free to let Ren Biao know. Once this old man receives the news, I will definitely do my best to help! "
Li Zexuan nodded his head silently, but his heart was in turmoil. He did not expect the Wang Family to have a Law Enforcement Hall. This plaything sounded similar to the cultivation sects in some cultivation novels. There were Law Enforcement Hall, Elder Hall, Law Enforcement Hall, Law Enforcement Hall, Law Enforcement Hall, Elder Hall, Law Enforcement Hall, and so on. It seemed that none of these traditional aristocratic families were simple!
"In order to express my sincerity, this old man has specially prepared some humble gifts. I hope County Magistrate Li can accept them."
After saying this, Wang Yu took a red sandalwood box from Wang Renbiao's hands and handed it to Li Zexuan.
Li Zexuan was really 'overwhelmed by the favor'. The matter had already been discussed and the misunderstanding had been cleared up. Wang Yu, as the Provincial Governor of a province, actually still wanted to give a small fifth-rank official like him a gift. What was he trying to do? Was this old man really the Wang Family's Patriarch? Why was he so low-key?
"No need, no need. Provincial Governor Wang is too polite!"
Li Zexuan hurriedly waved his hand to refuse. After all, one's mouth was too soft for others!
"There are only some worthless things inside. County Magistrate Li's refusal, could it be that you are still unwilling to reconcile with the Wang Family?"
Wang Yu pushed the box in front of Li Zexuan again.
After a few more times, Li Zexuan finally accepted. In any case, Wang Yu said that the things inside were worthless. Since he had accepted them, then so be it.
… … …
After chatting for a while, Wang Yu and his son tactfully took their leave. During this time, the two sides naturally reached many agreements. For example, the cooperation that Li Zexuan and Wang Renbiao had previously discussed. After the kidnapping incident, Li Zexuan had unilaterally stopped the supply of wine to the Strange Interest Pavilion and the winery. At that time, Wang Renbiao felt that the Wang Family was in the wrong, so he did not raise any objections. Now that the relationship between the two sides had been mended, the cooperation was restarted.
After returning to his room in the West Courtyard, Li Zexuan was no longer sleepy. His eyes inadvertently glanced at the dark red sandalwood box beside his hand. His heart skipped a beat, and he picked it up and weighed it in his hand. Hey, it's quite heavy. I wonder what's inside it.
Li Zexuan carefully opened the wooden box, and was immediately blinded by the light. The wooden box was divided into two rows and four rows, and there were eight small compartments. In each compartment, there was a fist-sized luminous pearl lying quietly.
Inside the luminous pearl, the fluorescent light flowed like liquid. If there was only one, it might not be so dazzling, but when all eight of them were placed together, it was really dazzling.
"Oh my God! That old geezer Wang Yu actually said that these were just some worthless playthings. If they weren't valuable, then what was valuable about them? The Wang Family seems to be richer than me! "
Li Zexuan had only seen these genuine luminous pearls in some documentaries in his previous life. Although the principle of the luminous pearl was very simple, and there were many artificial luminous pearls that cost six yuan on certain treasures, these natural luminous pearls in front of him were really priceless! At least, he had not seen anyone selling luminous pearls of this size on the market since he transmigrated here. He did not know where that old man Wang found so many luminous pearls. He really put in a lot of money!
… … …
"Father, are you going to give those eight luminous pearls to Li Zexuan just like that?"
Wang Renbiao asked Wang Yu in a vermilion carriage on the street.
Wang Yu had been resting with his eyes closed. At this moment, he said without opening his eyes, "They are just some inanimate objects that emit light. If we keep them in the family's treasury, they will only gather dust. It's better to use them to ease the relationship between the two families!"
"Father, is the situation of the aristocratic families really so bad?"
Wang Renbiao was also very surprised by his father's humble attitude today. But after thinking for a while, he guessed why Wang Yu was like this, but he still did not quite believe it.
Wang Yu finally opened his eyes. He looked at Wang Renbiao and said in a deep voice, "Today, I have an audience with His Majesty. His Majesty has also indirectly warned me to restrain the children of the family. And according to His Majesty's intention, I'm afraid that it won't be long before he makes a move on the aristocratic families. Renbiao, remember, His Majesty is a man of great talent and bold vision. He will definitely not allow the aristocratic families to surpass the imperial court. And I believe that even if all the aristocratic families were to join forces, they would not be a match for His Majesty. The other aristocratic families cannot see the situation clearly and are futilely trying to stop the chariot with their arms. But our Wang Family must see the situation clearly and learn to protect ourselves. Otherwise, no matter how strong the imperial favor is, the Wang Family will be destroyed in an instant! "
Wang Renbiao nodded with a solemn expression.
"Yes, father, I will remember!"
Wang Yu looked at the endless stream of people outside the carriage. After a moment of silence, he sighed with a tired face, "Sigh, the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind will not stop!"
