Gan Tonglin was taken aback and hurriedly explained, "Why do you say that? Master Gong, I really don't mean anything else. I just hope that I can be a good host. "
He sounded sincere, but Lin Mengya wasn't so easily fooled.
"Mr. Gan, I'll just tell you the truth."
She became more open.
"The reason why we're here is because of the unfair treatment that the Li Clan has suffered. Although this is an internal affair of the aboriginals, as friends, the Temple Master and I will not stand by and do nothing. "
She clearly told the other party that they were here for the Li family and that they were on the same boat from a long time ago.
These words not only embarrassed Gan Tonglin, but also made Li Ao, who had been guarding outside, slightly change his expression.
His original worries had gradually dissipated.
Undeniably, he was indeed worried that Master Gong would choose to cooperate with the Gan Clan.
After all, the Li Clan was only an empty shell now. Even if it could help her, it would be very limited.
Indeed, he had taken the opportunity to make things difficult for the Gan Clan just now for his own selfish reasons.
But now, he wasn't worried at all.
A person like Master Gong would never be as heartless as Song Jian.
Gan Tonglin was speechless for a moment, and his expression gradually became more cautious.
He rubbed his hands together, but his eyes flashed with some shrewdness.
Come to think of it, how could someone who was chosen by the Gan Clan as a lobbyist be so stupid and cowardly?
"I understand."
Gan Tonglin nodded, obviously calming down a lot.
After a moment of silence, he raised his head, but there was still a faint smile on his face.
"But there's still one thing I don't understand. Can I trouble Master Gong and Your Highness to clear it up for me?"
Lin Mengya glanced at him.
"Please go ahead."
Gan Tonglin narrowed his eyes. Although he still looked kind and honest, he showed his experience as a member of the Gan Clan.
"I admire Master Gong's loyalty and loyalty. But I'm afraid you're not fully aware of the Li Clan's situation in the aboriginals, right? "
He smiled, and unhurriedly explained the current predicament that the Li Clan was facing.
"Putting aside the fact that the Li Family has long been ostracized by the other families of the ancient race, just the fact that the Li Family dared to defy the orders of the elders is enough to get this family expelled from the ancient race. The best outcome would be to be chased out of the Ancient race completely. A clan that has completely lost its value will only become a burden to the two of you. "
Lin Mengya realized that this man was not simple.
He didn't mention that the Gan Clan had a favor to ask of them. Instead, he tried to sow discord between the Gan Clan and the Li Clan.
She wasn't the only one who might be moved by these words. If the Li Family heard this, they would probably think more about it too.
However, she wasn't worried now.
She chuckled, her expression relaxed and natural.
"So what? Coincidentally, I feel that the territory of the Gong family is vast and sparsely populated. I can still afford to support these people. "
Lin Mengya almost pasted the words "rich and overbearing" on her forehead.
Gan Tonglin wanted to mock him, but he recalled the rumors he had heard about the Gong Family's Patriarch.
It was said that the Gong Family was as rich as a country.
Even the roof of the mansion she lived in was made of pure gold. It glistened under the sun and looked like a fairyland.
Moreover, the rumors said that the Gong Family's Patriarch was a spendthrift.
Even the fish in her courtyard ate gold and silver scraps.
When negotiating with such a person, money was obviously the most useless condition.
Suddenly, Gan Tonglin couldn't help but feel that things were getting tricky.
Therefore, he fell silent.
Lin Mengya, on the other hand, kept glancing at him.
If she knew about these rumors, she would definitely turn her nose up at them.
Did he have any common sense?
It was one thing for the roof to be made of gold, but how could the fish eat gold and silver? Wouldn't they die a long time ago?
Gan Tonglin, who was under a lot of pressure, changed his strategy after a while.
"It's my fault. The Gong Family's principles are as high as the clouds. She is indeed a heroine. Sigh, actually, we were forced to do this. Otherwise, who would want to be a bad person? "
Since she couldn't entice him with benefits, she was now trying to act pitiful?
In this regard, Lin Mengya, who had always been amenable to coaxing but not coercion, didn't have such a strong attitude.
Seeing that this path was feasible, Gan Tonglin immediately frowned and portrayed himself and the Gan Family as a tragic little white lotus.
"I'm sorry to let you two laugh at me. Actually, although the Gan Family has occasional conflicts with the Li Family. But as the saying goes, a close neighbor is better than a distant relative. After all, we've been neighbors for so many years. No matter how fierce the conflicts are, it's our own business. How can we not know that if the Li Family falls, the Gan Family will be next? "
His words had a hint of sympathy for the death of the rabbit.
He was always on the move, so he naturally looked at things from a more objective perspective than the other people in the family.
The aboriginals were too closed.
Not only did this give them a sense of protection, but it also gave them a sense of arrogance and narrow-mindedness.
In particular, the chain reaction brought about by the rise of the Gong Family as the representative of the reformists made him secretly apprehensive.
Therefore, when he learned that the Gong Family and the Temple Master were in the Li Family, he urged the elders to let him go first.
He had a premonition.
These two people would bring earth-shaking changes to the aboriginals.
If the Gan Family did not want to be destroyed in this wave, they must not offend these two people too much.
However, his words carried little weight. This time, he came to the Li Family to invite them under great pressure.
After seeing them, he was shocked.
These two people were more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
He had no choice but to take the initiative to show weakness.
He was a sensible man. Lin Mengya nodded to herself.
But on the surface, she still pretended to be ignorant.
"Why do you say this, Sir? As far as I know, the Gan Family has a close relationship with the elders. They don't act independently like the Li Family. How can they make you sigh like this? "
Her eyes were full of innocence, but it made Gan Tonglin feel suffocated.
"Gong Family, why, why do you ask when you already know the answer?"
"I don't understand what you mean."
She continued to pretend to be ignorant and turned to look at Long Tianhao.
"Your Highness, do you understand?"
Long Tianhao shook his head without any pressure.
Gan Tonglin gritted his teeth, but he could only lower his voice.
"Your Highness, the thing you told Gan Tongze that the old Palace Master asked you to bring, is it really useful for our master's flame poison?"
Asking Gan Tonglin to admit that they urgently needed that thing was equivalent to giving up the opportunity to take the initiative.
Now, they could only passively accept the other party's conditions.
Long Tianhao's expression was as cold as ever, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
"Oh, so it's this matter."
Then, he said in a casual tone, "I don't know either. After all, it was prepared by Master. Maybe it's useless for the Gan Family now?"
The longer the flame poison was delayed, the more damage it would cause to the body of the Gan Family's old master.
It was very serious.
In the end, even if they had the antidote for the flame poison, the body would be too damaged, and there was no way to save it.
That was why the Gan Family was so anxious to find them.
"This … whether it's useful or not, we have to try it to know. Your Highness, please save our Patriarch! "
At this moment, Gan Tonglin could no longer pretend.
Perhaps he was using a different method to plead, but in the end, it was more effective than using a threatening and tempting tone.
Long Tianhao pondered for a moment.
But he gently scratched Madam's palm with one hand, and she glared at him coquettishly.
"All right."
He pretended to be very embarrassed.
"Of course, it's also for the sake of my master. I can't not give him an explanation."
Gan Tonglin immediately thanked him profusely, and almost cried while hugging his thigh.
He was also a clear person.
He didn't force Long Tianhao to fix the date, nor did he delay here.
Instead, he ordered people to leave a lot of valuable gifts, and left hurriedly with his people.
"Are you really going to the Gan Family?"
After he left, Lin Mengya stopped pretending, but she couldn't help but worry.
After all, there might be people from the Elders' Council in the Gan Family.
The Sixth Young Master and Bi Nu were both dead, and the Li Family had completely fallen out with them.
It was hard to guarantee that they wouldn't deal with them because of this.
"Why? Are you worried that I can't escape? "
He took her hand and put it on his chest.
"You doubt me like this, and it makes me feel like a useless thing, alas …"
"Stop it!"
Lin Mengya suddenly withdrew her hand, and not only that, but also rolled her eyes at him.
"Even if you can't move, I'm afraid that they can't stop you. Tell me, what are you going to do? "
She stared at him, and her tone was fierce and threatening.
"I'm telling you, I won't allow you to take risks by yourself!"
Long Tianhao smiled and looked at her with a gentle expression.
"How can I leave you alone? But if we act together, we will be too big a target. "
"So …"
Soon, her doubts were answered.
Looking at the men's clothes that Baisu brought over, she just glanced at Long Tianhao, and then drove him out.
Although she had never seen this set of clothes, the size was very suitable for her figure.
Sitting in front of the mirror angrily, Lin Mengya only felt that this guy was getting more and more treacherous.
This was obviously prepared for a long time!
It turned out that this guy had already calculated everything.
She was already familiar with disguising herself, but she still tried on the makeup herself, and after making sure that it was perfect, she went out to settle the score.
Outside the courtyard, Long Tianhao and Li Ao came in together.
She couldn't help but stop, and there was a faint doubt in her heart.
Although Long Tianhao said that he and Li Ao knew each other before.
But according to him, the two of them were more like spiritual friends, and should not be very familiar.
But just now, she felt that the two of them seemed to be a little too familiar with each other.
She didn't know about Li Ao, but her man was not a guy who could be easily trusted by others.
But Long Tianhao was too natural.
Naturally, it was like this was his own territory.
