Chapter 195: responsibility
Chapter 195 Liability
This City Lord Zhang is said to have suppressed Yin Shiyan with just a few tricks, and when he came, that head was still hanging on the city gate," Wei Ming reprimanded, looking at Wei Shu.
"That's just a rumor. It's not clear what kind of strength this Zhang Jing is. Otherwise, why did he hide under Chen Jinhai for so long before," Wei Shu argued.
He was still a little unconvinced about what Wei Ming said.
"Hmph, is it possible that you want me to try the quality of this Zhang Chengzhu?" Wei Ming had a gloomy face.
"I..." Wei Shu lowered his head.
"If I die at the hands of this Lord Zhang, the Wei family will be destroyed tomorrow. Do you want to see this result?" Wei Ming looked at him questioningly.
"Outsiders don't know the reality of my Wei family, don't you know? If it weren't for "Li Zheng", we wouldn't have the strength to destroy the Wei family.
Even, if it is not good, it will be wiped out by the Wei family,
Now, people from the outside world are inquiring about how my Wei family has the strength to destroy the Wei family.
If we let them understand the reality, maybe my Wei family will..."
Wei Ming stood with his hands behind his back and let out a cold snort.
"Now it's just annihilation of a mere Wei family, and you are complacent and overjoyed, but you know that my Wei family is walking on thin ice now, and if I am not careful, I will fall into the abyss."
"Brother, I..." Hearing these words, Wei Shu lowered his head.
"Why is this Heishui City just sent someone to pass a word, and then I came. Do you think I'm really here for business?" Wei Ming seemed to have a lot to teach Wei Shu.
As one of Wei's real power figures, what Wei Shu is doing now really disappoints him.
"I was looking for a helper who could help me, Wei Shi. That "Li Zheng" just showed up and then disappeared. I, Wei Shi, can't count on him at all.
This City Lord Zhang is different, he has just established in Heishui City not long ago, and there are no other forces involved, if we can get his help, the Wei family will be fine in a short time," Wei Ming said softly.
"Brother, I, I was wrong," Wei Shu glanced at Wei Ming in shame, and then lowered his head.
He didn't expect his eldest brother to carry so many things.
The helm of a family has more than power,
and also,
responsibility!
The burden of hundreds of members of the Wei family fell on Wei Ming alone.
"You are right. What is wrong is that our Wei family has no strength. If my Wei family is famous in all countries, no matter how arrogant you are, you will not dare to disrespect my Wei family," Wei Ming sighed softly.
In this world where the jungle preys on the weak, being weak is the original sin,
Why did he think so?
Zhang Jing and him are both top-notch. He took the initiative to visit and lowered his posture, but he was left alone for several days.
He could endure all these, he put Wei Shi first, and his honor and disgrace second.
He and his father brought Wei's small declining family back to the top, pouring countless efforts into it.
I really don't want Wei Shi to repeat the mistakes of decades ago.
Wei Jia can get up once, but not necessarily the second time.
Because, the hidden enemy behind him will not give him any more chances.
"Go down, you and I will meet this "City Lord Zhang" tonight," Wei Ming said softly.
"Yes."
"Heishui City, Zhang Jing," Wei Ming squinted his eyes and stood upstairs looking at the river below, whispering softly.
Wei Ming also did some research on Zhang Jing's origin.
Before, he was the head of a small village under the jurisdiction of Heishui City. Later, Chen Jinhai admired him and invited him to join Heishui City as the patrol leader.
After that, he replaced Chen Jinhai as the next Lord of Blackwater City.
And the time this has gone through is only a few months, and what was exposed during the Blackwater City was not the first-rate state but the second-rate state.
Going forward, Wei Ming couldn't be found, as if Zhang Jing appeared out of thin air.
So, Wei Ming now guesses that Zhang Jing should have planned for Heishui City long ago.
Maybe Chen Jinhai's death was planned by him, after all, he was the one who benefited in the end.
Such scheming and strength are really terrifying.
I don't know whether it is a good choice for Wei Shi to cooperate with such a person.
Now, Wei Ming even suspects that Zhang Jing's strength may still be hidden.
However, this possibility is not great, it is just a sudden idea of Wei Ming.
If Zhang Jing is really that powerful, there is no need to count Chen Jinhai.
Wei Ming frowned slightly, the more he thought about it, the more mysterious this Zhang Jing became.
As the sky gradually darkened, Wei Ming brought Wei Shu to the City Lord's Mansion again.
The last time they came, they were rejected,
But this time is different, this time Zhang Jing took the initiative to invite him.
"Is it Patriarch Wei?" The city guard of the City Lord's Mansion asked politely when he saw the visitor.
The higher-ups have already ordered that distinguished guests will be invited tonight, so they naturally dare not be unreasonable.
"It's right here," Wei Ming also bowed his hands politely.
"Patriarch Wei, please follow me, the city lord is waiting in the hall right now," the city guard gestured with his hand.
"Okay, thank you very much," Wei Ming smiled.
Wei Shu also cupped his hands. Obviously, he had heard what he said today, and knew what the purpose of his elder brother's visit to Zhang Jing was.
He is not a fool either, after a little thought, he figured out Wei Shi's current situation.
After thinking about it, he was frightened into a cold sweat,
He did not expect that the Wei family is now in danger,
If Wei Ming didn't mention him, he still thinks that Wei Shi is now at ease.
Along the way, Cheng Wei introduced to Wei Ming the things in the City Lord's Mansion in detail, and Wei Ming kept nodding his head.
But actually he didn't listen to anything,
At this moment, his heart is on Zhang Jing.
"Patriarch Wei," Zhang Jing waited for Wei Ming at the door,
Seeing him appear, he cupped his hands and said softly.
"Wei Ming has met City Lord Zhang." After seeing Zhang Jing, Wei Ming slightly lowered his body.
The same goes for Wei Shu next to him.
"Patriarch Wei, the reception was a little poor in retreat a few days ago, please forgive me," Zhang Jing said with a hint of apology on his face.
"Hey, it's important to retreat, Lord Zhang don't want to do this, I'm taking the liberty," Wei Ming cupped his hands again.
The two raised their heads, looked at each other, and smiled.
"Haha, Patriarch Wei, please," Zhang Jing stretched out his hand to signal.
"City Master Zhang please first," Wei Ming said very politely.
"Haha, good." Seeing Wei Ming's appearance, Zhang Jing chuckled, turned around and walked towards the hall.
Looking at Zhang Jing's figure, Wei Ming squinted his eyes. He didn't expect that this "City Master Zhang" would actually,
So young.
This really surprised him a bit. He thought that Zhang Jing had the current strength, at least he was over forty years old.
