522 He could actually scheme into everything

Xiao Hanzheng didn’t hide the fact that he was well-informed, so that his scumbag father would be more afraid of him and he would be less mischievous.

He smiled. “Thank you for the compliment. Compared to you, I’m indeed more well-informed.”

Xiao Yuanshi was speechless. Would he feel bad if this little brat didn’t argue?

He took another deep breath. “If you don’t want to treat me, how about we work together?”

He was prepared that Xiao Hanzheng turned him down before he came.

Therefore, he was not in a hurry. What he needed to do now was to ease the relationship and caused him to be touched and treat him.

The reason why Xiao Hanzheng mentioned the map was that he had guessed the purpose of his father’s visit to Heyang County.

It was not as simple as treating his illness.

Other than being stupid when it came to Ge Chunru, his scumbag father was usually rational and smart.

He must have known that he would not be able to treat him because of their past grudges.

He shook the teacup. “How do we cooperate? ”

His scumbag father wanted to use him.

He was dreaming.

Since he had come to find trouble, he could only fulfill his wish.

Xiao Yuanshi didn’t beat around the bush, “Let’s search for the treasure together.”

He realized that his son was becoming more and more extraordinary, and was getting more and more well-informed.

Hence, he had originally only wanted to work with him to fight against Prince Jin, but now he had changed his mind.

In any case, his son already knew that the map had been stolen, so he had no more concerns.

Even his son knew about this, so how could the well-informed emperor not know?

He was really screwed over by that bitch Ge Chunru this time.

Therefore, he had to quickly find a way to make up for his mistake.

The only way was to find the treasure and present it to the emperor.

With the emperor’s personality, he would not pursue the matter of him copying the map and hiding it.

Xiao Hanzheng sneered. “You only thought of working with me after the map was stolen. What were you doing earlier?”

Xiao Yuanshi sighed without any guilt. “I was thinking of working with you after you were transferred to Northern City. Who knew that she’d steal the map? ”

Xiao Hanzheng looked at him with a half-smile. “You’re the only one who would believe that.”

He raised his eyebrows again. “Now that you don’t have the map, what do you have to cooperate with me? ”

His words were obvious.

If you want to cooperate, you have to at least come up with something that can move me.

Stop dreaming if you want to get something for nothing.

Xiao Yuanshi was embarrassed by his son.

Although he didn’t want to admit it, he knew that his son was no longer the same as before.

He was a capable and ruthless man.

It was impossible to play the so-called emotional card with Xiao Hanzheng.

This son’s blood was cold, at least to him, the father.

He thought for a while, took out a piece of paper and handed it to Xiao Hanzheng. “Look, this is my sincerity for cooperation.”

Xiao Hanzheng took the paper and looked at it.

He was a little surprised. “Sure enough, you’re still useful in other aspects except for Ge Chunru.”

It was a message written by someone close to the princess from the previous dynasty to his scumbag father.

His scumbag father had arranged for people to link up with the people from the previous dynasty.

Xiao Yuanshi was speechless. What was he saying? Who would say such things about their own father?

He also wanted his son to be a human and not learn everything from that bad daughter-in-law, Shi Qingluo.

“What do you think? Is surrendering for this cooperation okay?” He also knew that he couldn’t win against his son, so he could only sulk.

Xiao Hanzheng smiled. “You’re not sincere enough.”

“You go and do something. After you’ve done it, we’ll work together,” he said.

The connections that his scumbag father had planted in the forces of the previous dynasty could indeed be useful.

“What is it?” Xiao Yuanshi pulled the note back, then took out a match and burned it.

In the past, he would burn the letters he sent to that person.

This time, he kept it mainly because he wanted to gain his son’s trust.

“Ask your men to sow discord between them and Prince Jin, ” Xiao Hanzheng said bluntly. “Don’t let them work together so quickly to find the treasure. At least wait until I’m transferred to Northern City.”

Prince Yi also had people in the power of the previous dynasty, but he never took the initiative to contact them, for fear of being exposed.

Originally, they were prepared to mobilize their spy to do this, but now that his scumbag father had taken the initiative to come to their door, it was better to save their spy for the critical moment.

“Alright, I’ll make the arrangements,” Xiao Yuanshi said after some thought.

His son’s words made sense.

They were not fully prepared yet, so they could not let Prince Jin and those from the previous dynasty combine the maps to find the treasure.

If he really let them find the treasure first, his future would be over.

His son’s suggestion was exactly what he wanted.

His eyes darkened. “What about your sincerity in cooperating? ”

If his men were to do so, it would be easy for them to be accidentally exposed, and his losses would be greater.

Xiao Hanzheng chuckled. “Deputy Governor Xiao, you have to be clear about one thing. You’re the one begging me to work with you, not me.

“So what does sincerity have to do with me?

“If you’re that capable, you can deal with Prince Jin and the forces of the previous dynasty on your own.

“I won’t suffer any losses even if we don’t cooperate.”

He looked at his scumbag father with a faint smile.

“But you can’t. Once the other two forces find the treasure first, you may be beaten back to your original state and return to Xiaxi Village to farm.”

Xiao Yuanshi was speechless.

His son must have been transformed from a fox.

He could actually scheme against everything.

What did he mean by asking for cooperation?

However, he really couldn’t say that he didn’t cooperate unless he wanted to return to the village to farm.

“That’s impossible. We can’t work together, and I’ll be the one doing all the work, right?” he said with a frown.

“As long as you do what you just said, ” Xiao Hanzheng said, ” we’ll form a temporary alliance.

“Of course, I’ll also help.

“When I’m transferred to Northern City, I’ll take over the search for the treasure.

“By then, you’ll still be the one benefiting from it.

“After all, the emperor didn’t give me the important task of finding the treasure, but he gave it to you.”

After listening to his words, Xiao Yuanshi realized that he had been tricked again.

“Alright, I’ll see how you find the treasure,” he said through gritted teeth.

His son was very capable.

He didn’t want to admit it, but it was a fact, so he had no choice but to make use of it.

Xiao Hanzheng smiled. “I knew Deputy Governor Xiao would be just as tactful.”

Xiao Yuanshi didn’t want to talk to his son anymore.

It was too uncomfortable to be suppressed.

“If I succeed in this and we become partners, can you help me treat my illness?” he asked after some thought.

Xiao Hanzheng played with the teacup and looked at him with a smile, but he did not say anything.

He had an expression that said,”What do you think?”

Xiao Yuanshi looked at him and became angry.

“Are you going to treat me or not? just tell me.”

“We’ll talk about it when the time comes,” Xiao Hanzheng replied lazily.

Xiao Yuanshi choked on his perfunctory words.

The more he looked at his son, the more he felt that his son was like that annoying, bad daughter-in-law.

If they hadn’t broken off their relationship, he really wanted to pick up a stick and teach him a good lesson so that he would know how to be filial.

But now, he could only endure it. Who asked him to ask for a favor?

More importantly, this brat’s martial arts were above his. How infuriating!
