Liu Xu knew very well what Chen Jide meant at this time, which was to completely surrender to him and take the initiative to ask Ying to be his thug. Speaking of which, Liu Xu didn't really mind this on the surface. This time he killed the Qian brothers and ransacked Qian Er's home, which was obviously a slap in Xu Yi's face. Unless Liu Xu pays a large tribute and completely surrenders to Xu Yi, he will suffer his revenge sooner or later. And he was obviously Chen Jide's person from the beginning, so of course he would not turn to Xu Yi's side. Even if he went over to him, he would definitely not be valued and trusted by Xu Yi. Instead, he would attract Chen Jide's revenge. After Xu Yi got the benefits, he would also It may not be possible to protect him. What¡¯s more important is that Liu Xu is eyeing Xu Yi¡¯s position. If he wants to climb further, he must let Xu Yi or Huo Bingqi move. Now that Xu Yi is the strongest, joining forces with Chen Jide and Huo Bingqi to drive tigers and devour him is a strategy that is in line with Liu Xu's future interests. Facing Chen Jide's sudden anger, Liu Xu seemed very calm and said calmly: "General, calm down. I did say the wrong thing just now. Please don't take it to heart. I heard something about Deputy Ambassador Xu being disrespectful to you." Regarding the matter, I also heard that most of the Wuhous on our right street were promoted by Deputy Envoy Xu. This really undermines your majesty, General. My subordinates also feel very sorry for you, General. They are your people. , If Deputy Ambassador Xu really makes things difficult for his subordinates in the future, they are not easy to bully, and the worst is to fight him to the death. " Chen Jide looked a little ugly at first, after all, Liu Xu directly exposed his scars, but In the end, Liu Xu stated that he would not hesitate to fight Xu Yi to the death. This was exactly what he hoped in his heart, otherwise he would not have made it so obvious to Liu Xu just now. Chen Jide was in a good mood for a moment, and his expression immediately softened. He nodded slightly and said: "Deputy Ambassador Xu was indeed a little disrespectful to me before, but I will not argue with him. Of course, you are mine. , I can't watch you being bullied by him. If he deliberately embarrasses you in the future, I will make the decision for you. However, he is your boss now. If he really wants to find a reason to embarrass you, I won't be too embarrassed. If you are too partial to you, it mainly depends on whether you can strengthen your waist. As long as you are not afraid of him, I don't think he can get anything done. " I understand the meaning of Chen Jide's words. That was Chi Guoguo's instigation. I wanted to say directly, "Go and fight him. As long as you can beat him, I will make the decision for you." The problem is, I can beat him, why do I still need you to make the decision? Chen Jide is obviously planning to sit back and watch the fight between tigers and tigers. Liu Xu also knew that this incident had made Chen Jide jealous of him. Although this was what he wanted, he didn't expect that Chen Jide would value him so much now and directly compare him to Xu Yi. He would not be so stupid as to be the handle of the knife in Chen Jide's hand. He has some strength now, but if he were to confront Xu Yi head-on, he would definitely not be able to get away with it. However, his first priority right now is to take this opportunity to get what he wants. Therefore, Liu Xu followed suit and pretended to be impulsive and fierce: "Thank you, general, for making the decision for your subordinates. If Xu Yi really makes things difficult for his subordinates, his subordinates will definitely not let him have an easy time!" "Okay! You will serve as the military commander. The military position of Marshal Hou requires a sense of bravery and an indomitable spirit to admit defeat. I am sure you will apply for transfer to Pingkangfang. I hope you will serve me well in the future. I will never treat you badly. "The reason why Chen Jide was so happy was of course to further provoke the conflict between Liu Xu and Xu Yi. Pingkangfang, a large square near Dongshi City, had been controlled by Xu Yi's people. Chen Jide had just revealed that he wanted to replace Toutian, and Xu Yi firmly opposed it. Then the successor he had planned suddenly resigned due to illness. After that, no one had the courage to take over, and the situation was similar in several other Wuhou Pus. This made Chen Jide, a young man, feel aggrieved that he had nowhere to use his power and that his hands and feet were tied up. At this point, Liu Xu is obviously an anomaly in their Wuhou system. This time Liu Xu suddenly killed Qian Eryong, the Wuhou Shuai of Pingkangfang, which was very in line with Chen Jide's wishes, and it can be said that it made him feel bad. Therefore, Chen Jide was very happy about the appointment this time. He got up and went to the copywriting side, found a blank letter of appointment to write the appointment, and then stamped it with his right street envoy's seal. As for Wu Houshuai¡¯s bronze waistband, it comes with everyone. It has a number on it, which is Liu Xu¡¯s identity certificate. It has been recorded in the book. On the surface, he is in the same position this time, so he does not need to change his waistband. Of course Liu Xu knew Chen Jide's intentions in his heart, but after all, he had obtained the position he wanted. He quickly stepped forward and half-knelt on the ground to receive the letter of appointment, and expressed his gratitude and said: "Thank you, General, I will definitely not hesitate to give it to you." I will obey the general's trust and serve you well from now on." "Well, get up. This general is very optimistic about you.?, don't let me down. "Chen Jide said with some meaning. Liu Xu also heard the meaning of his words, stood up, cupped his hands and said: "General, don't worry, my subordinates will definitely not let you down. " "very good. "Chen Jide nodded appreciatively, and then said casually, "As for Qian Eryong's dirty silver, it's a little unsafe to put it here. I will ask my young man to go out with you and let him lead the way. You will have to transport it to my house for safekeeping first. Liu Xu felt contempt in his heart, and quickly agreed with a calm face: "Yes." The subordinates will transport it to your residence later. " One thousand five hundred taels of silver is not a small amount. Of course, Chen Jide wanted to get this money as soon as possible. Therefore, he issued an order to expel the guest: "If there is nothing else, you can go down first. " When Liu Xu saw this, he quickly said respectfully: "General, now I am transferred to Pingkangfang, but Qinglongfang needs someone to take over. I suggest someone to take over. This man's name is Jiang Maocai, and he is one of my subordinates. Today he was walking with his subordinates. To protect his subordinates, he was stabbed and seriously injured by the thugs. Fortunately, his life is not serious. He will be fine in a few days. Therefore, His subordinates must clearly distinguish rewards and punishments, so that he can succeed Wu Houshuai of Qinglongfang. " If you don't take the opportunity to ask for some benefits now, you may not have the opportunity next time. Therefore, Liu Xu made this request without any psychological burden at all. As for why he chose Jiang Maocai as his successor, of course it was to continue to effectively strengthen him after he left. The control of Qinglongfang. Jiang Maocai is a bit timid in character, but he is very good at dealing with people. While controlling Liu Xu, he can also handle the relationship with other Wuhou. In addition, if someone else succeeds, then after he leaves, no one in Qinglongfang will be convinced by anyone, and there will be constant overt and covert fights. Healthy competition and mutual balance are what Liu Xu wants to see, but internal fighting and exacerbating internal strife are not what Liu Xu wants to see. I hope. Jiang Maocai was always laughed at and bullied by most other Wuhou in Wuhou Pu. He has excellent psychological quality. After becoming Wuhou Shuai, other Wuhou will definitely dissatisfy him, and Jiang Maocai will definitely not have the courage to follow other Wuhou. Marquis Wu put on airs and fought head-on, thus avoiding internal strife and the possibility of Jiang Maocai taking power alone. If Jiang Maocai did not want to be bullied by other Marquis Wu and secure his position as Commander-in-Chief of Wu Marquis, he could only follow Liu closely. Xu, let Liu Xu support him, this is what Liu Xu hopes. Chen Jide certainly understands Liu Xu's intention of making this request. He obviously wants to continue to control Wuhoupu in Qinglongfang, which makes him feel a little uncomfortable. He originally wanted to send one of his own people down, but thinking that Liu Xu would face the wolf Xu Yi, it would be too bad if Liu Xu was too weak and got eaten in one bite. "Well, tomorrow. You ask him to come and report to me. "After hesitating for a while, Chen Jide nodded happily and agreed. "Thank you, general. The subordinate took his leave first. " Chen Jide nodded, and then loudly called his servant to come in. After giving him instructions in a low voice for a while, he asked him to follow Liu Xu out.
