Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

After leaving the Fang Mansion, General Cai's disdainful expression gradually faded away, and turned serious.

"They make hundreds of thousands of silver every year in the trading market, not to mention that they have other businesses, and there is no shortage of silver at all. Why are they still staring at you?"

General Cai hadn't noticed it before, but after careful consideration, he noticed some abnormalities.

Before Xie Yan could speak, he said to himself: "Could it be that Fang Chenghai... did something he shouldn't have done?"

As he spoke, he winked at Xie Yan for a while.

"You already knew?"

"It's just a little speculation." Xie Yan's tone did not fluctuate, but he replied lightly, "No matter how much the Jiang family squanders, they will definitely not spend millions of taels of silver, not to mention that Jiang Taifu is very strict with the Jiang family. There is but one reason for the cost of silver."

"They raised an army!"

General Cai clapped his hands and replied heavily.

As he spoke, he racked his brains and thought: "If this matter is exposed, wouldn't we..."

"With the temperament of the current emperor, he can suspect Jiang's family and Chu Yunyi without us having to expose this matter." Xie Yan's voice seemed to be covered with ice, which made people shudder.

Seeing his expression, General Cai rubbed his hands, hesitating a bit: "Then let's just let them continue to grow? But that army is a threat to us after all."

"Even if a shady army disappears for no reason, they won't be able to pursue it." Xie Yan said in a cold and low voice, and said a word lightly.

After hearing this, General Cai's eyes lit up.

"You mean..."

"If the general thinks my words are reasonable, why not take advantage of this good opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop." Xie Yan's eyes were ignorant, his brows and eyes were cold, "I will never come again when this opportunity is too late."

General Cai nodded again and again, immediately understood what he meant, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will leave this matter to me."

……

Ten days later, the last batch of tea was sent outside the customs.

At the same time, Rong Zhi also quietly returned to his mansion.

As soon as he got home, he took a large number of things to Fangfu.

Seeing Rong Zhi, Fang Chenghai's eyebrows twitched suddenly, and he said angrily: "Why are you here again? Do you think the previous incident was not big enough?"

Rong Zhi smiled and said: "General, why are you doing this? Who doesn't know that I went in to disturb the sight? Besides, Mr. Mei has agreed to cooperate with you now, what else do we need to worry about?"

"Ridiculous!" Fang Chenghai has been cautious for most of his life, and he will definitely not let down his vigilance just because of Rong Zhi's few words.

He turned cold and waved Rong Zhi's hand away: "Just say what you have to say, if you still behave like this in the future, you will go back to the capital!"

Hearing this, Rong Zhi straightened his expression immediately, and said anxiously: "I'm doing this for you too! You have reached a cooperation with Mr. Mei and General Cai, so you have to hold a banquet no matter what, invite them to the mansion."

"Think about it, this matter is very risky. If General Cai and Mr. Mei are not allowed to show their faces in front of other people, we will not be able to win people's trust!"

Rong Zhi pointed out something, making Fang Chenghai's expression gradually dignified.

"You're right." Fang Chenghai thought thoughtfully, "We can't let them hide behind us."

After finishing speaking, he nodded: "In that case, I will leave this matter to you."

Rong Zhi smiled like a flower, and the wrinkles on his face stretched out: "General, don't worry, there is news from the capital, as long as the one from the capital..."

"Shut up!" Fang Chenghai snapped, "Is it something you and I can talk about in the capital?"

Rong Zhi lowered his head resentfully, scratched his head and said, "The news has already reached us, and there are already rumors out there, so it doesn't matter if we say a few words."

Seeing that Fang Chenghai's face gradually softened, Rong Zhi knew that he had reached a critical point. When he thought of the prosperity and wealth in the future, his eyes lit up like two lanterns: "General, it's time for those people we raised Woke up."

"Once the emperor is gone, those princes are useless. Isn't it a good opportunity for our third prince to take the throne? General, is this our meritorious service?"

Fang Chenghai glanced at him and suddenly laughed.

"Hurry up and put away your little thoughts, the situation in Beijing is unclear, we can't act rashly now." Although Fang Chenghai said with a smile on his face, he still warned, "It would be good if that person is really gone, but if he is left In one breath..."

"I understand, I understand!" Rong Zhi said quickly, "We are waiting for the time to come!"

As he spoke, he laughed again.

Seeing this, Fang Chenghai waved his hands angrily: "Go and arrange your banquet, be sure to invite them over."

"Otherwise, you should invite me." Rong Zhi said, "If they don't give me face..."

"Then there's no need for them to stay." Fang Chenghai sneered, "I was a little skeptical at first, if they still push back and refuse to associate with us, it will only prove that they are spies sent by others!"

Only then did Rong Zhi feel relieved, nodded and bowed his head, and said, "I'm relieved by your words!"

……

When the Rong Mansion hosted a banquet, it was natural that the guests came like a cloud.

Everyone knows that Rong Zhi has a very good relationship with General Fang, who is in charge of the Beidu Protectorate. Even though he was imprisoned for smuggling charges, he was released from the prison in only a dozen days, and he was able to set up a banquet with great fanfare. guests.

However, there are many people who want to go to the banquet, but not everyone can enter.

The banquet is about to begin, and almost everyone is here.

What everyone was talking about was not the luxury of the banquet, but the two people sitting in the middle.

"General Cai is also here, as well as the new Mr. Mei. I didn't expect Boss Rong to have such a relationship."

"You don't know that the world of our Beidu Protectorate has changed. General Cai and General Fang, who used to be incompatible, have now become the same raccoon."

One pouted his mouth at the people in the middle, very yin and yang.

In the busiest and central banquet hall, General Cai's compliments to Rong Zhi were very receptive, his face was almost frozen with laughter, and he kept nodding.

"That's natural. If it weren't for this general, how could the Northern Capital Protectorate have been peaceful for so many years?" General Cai put down his wine glass, very contemptuously, "It can't be because of Fang Chenghai, right? People from aristocratic families are always afraid of this and that, lest it will affect them official career."

Fang Chenghai on the side secretly squeezed his wine glass tightly, his face still pretending to be calm, as if he didn't hear General Cai's words.

General Cai glanced at him, and said again: "How can those of us who come from poor families compare to those from aristocratic families? Naturally, we should pay more attention to things on weekdays."

Fang Chenghai on the side could hardly maintain the expression on his face: "So what about the family background? We also do our best to serve the emperor."

"These things that General Fang did were all agreed by the emperor?" General Cai pointed out something, which made Fang Chenghai's face even more ugly.

People around were paying attention to the movement here, so Fang Chenghai could only lower his voice, and warned: "Cai Zhuo, you and I are both grasshoppers on the same rope now, so you have to be more careful when you speak! You are so quick to speak! How? Once it reaches the emperor, neither you nor I can escape."

He fixed his eyes on General Cai, and he could vaguely see the red bloodshot inside.

General Cai smiled inexplicably: "Okay, it's just a few jokes, why should you take it seriously? Everyone here is from your own family, who would go out and talk nonsense?"

"Or...you have other thoughts?"

Fang Chenghai met his meaningful eyes and suddenly felt a tremor in his heart.

"Cai Zhuo!" Fang Chenghai gritted his teeth and warned, "Be careful what you say!"

But General Cai didn't seem to see his ugly face, and he still said to himself: "General Fang, the profit you make from the trading market is no less than one million a year. Logically speaking, this money is completely enough. Staring at the tea leaves?"

"Could it be that... there are still a group of people to support?"

As soon as these words came out, Fang Chenghai's face became stiff instantly.

He endured and endured, and then he didn't show any clues on his face: "Why did General Cai say that? The cooperation between you and me is beneficial to both parties. Don't you want to go back on your word?"

When he was speaking, his eyes were always fixed on General Cai's direction. Although his face was calm, the string in his mind was stretched to the tightest.

Why did Cai Zhuo say this?What did he know?

For a moment, General Cai showed a meaningful smile: "Does General Fang really think that no one knows what he is doing? There is nothing perfect in this world!"

"Come here!" Fang Chenghai immediately stood up, staring at General Cai with sharp eyes.

However, he spoke all his words for half a quarter of an hour, and there was no movement in the woods that should have hidden his hands.

At this time, Fang Chenghai felt a chill rising from his back, reaching to his Tianling Gai.

Opposite him, General Cai stood up slowly, clapped his hands, the voice was very crisp, causing the people around him to cast their eyes inexplicably.

The next moment, a large number of soldiers in armor and holding bows and arrows appeared on the walls around the courtyard where singing and dancing were supposed to take place. Their eyes were firm, and their sharp arrows pointed straight at the people in the courtyard.

"This is a trap!"

"There is an ambush!"

The people who were able to be there were all smart people. Seeing this situation, they immediately realized that the situation they were in was not good.

They looked at Fang Chenghai in disbelief, and Fang Chenghai's face was livid, and he said word by word: "Cai Zhuo! How dare you plot against me!"

"And you!" Fang Chenghai pointed at Xie Yan, gritted his teeth and said, "You deliberately lured me with tea leaves!"

It has come to this point, what else does Fang Chenghai not understand!This is clearly a trap deliberately set for him!

Xie Yan's expression remained the same as before, he was tall and tall, sitting at the table, his gestures were dignified: "If General Fang hadn't been in a hurry, this matter would not have gone so smoothly."

"Your official respects General Fang." Xie Yanyun lightly raised his hand and took a sip of the wine.

"You are not the Mei family!" Fang Chenghai gritted his teeth and said, "Who are you!"
