Chapter 233 It’s a banquet at Hongmen, and it’s also time to invite you into the jar!

Indeed, Liu Yu had never drank the wine served by Yuan Shao.

The cup of fragrant green plum wine only passed through Liu Yu's mouth once, and then he spit it on the silk handkerchief that was wiping his mouth.

In order to confuse Yuan Shao, Liu Yu specially practiced many times, how to spit out the wine, how to... do it in a calm and gentle manner without anyone noticing.

And the reason for doing this...

It was because of the night a day ago.

The moon reaches my brow, and the night is as dark as a rock...

In the secret room under the Yulin Temple, Liu Yu and the saint of Tianshi Dao, his wife Zhang Yulan, were sitting on the main seat.

A group of ghost soldiers in front of them are standing and waiting, while the person in front of them is reporting back.

"This afternoon, He Guiren and Wang Meiren in the palace met in Jiaofang Palace. Half a day later, the minister He Jin made a special trip to the palace to meet his sister He Guiren. They met twice... and they talked for a long time!"

The ghost soldier reported and placed a scroll on the table. On it were respectively depicted the scene of He Jin persuading He Guiren and... He Guiren arrogantly giving orders to Wang Meiren.

The second ghost soldier reported back: "It has been found out that Wang Meiren is two months pregnant. Before He Guiren came, she was always terrified. But after he came, she seemed to be much safer, but she seemed to be even more frightened."

After that, Princess Wang specially summoned Princess Wannian and kept her in Jiaofang Hall for one night."

The handkerchief unfolds…

This picture scroll is more delicate.

It even depicts the look between Wang Meiren and He Guiren when they met and after they met.

There is also a scene of Princess Wannian and Beauty Wang chatting happily. These two women, one has lost her mother, and the other has not yet been born, so they naturally have endless things to say. The picture... is full of warmth!

The third ghost soldier reported back: "He Jin and Yuan Shao have been meeting frequently recently... Tonight, the two of them took a few guards to a Yuan family's own wine shop, but it didn't feel like drinking, but more like observing and making arrangements."

The handkerchief unfolds…

It was a scene where He Jin and Yuan Shao appeared outside the restaurant. This restaurant... Liu Yu was very familiar with it. It was the place where "good brother" Yuan Shao would meet him for a drink tomorrow.

It was also the place where the two of them often drank in the past.

What the ghost soldiers behind reported was some information from outside Luoyang...it had nothing to do with the overall situation.

And as Liu Yu waved his hand...

These ghost soldiers retreated one after another, leaving only Liu Yu and Zhang Yulan.

"Madam is so powerful, she has actually been able to insert Tianshi Dao's eyes into the palace... Both the information and the scroll are so delicate!"

Liu Yu sighed with emotion.

Because of the reminder from Xun Yu's wife Tang, Liu Yu realized that the palace... might take action against him.

Therefore, Liu Yu mentioned to Zhang Yulan that he wanted to put some eyes in the palace.

This is just a mention...

Who would have thought that Zhang Yulan actually placed her spy inside the palace!

At this time, Zhang Yulan heard her husband's compliment and immediately smiled, "Are you complimenting me?"

After finishing the sentence, Zhang Yulan's tone became solemn, "Didn't you say it? The bustle in the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit. Money can make the world go round... As long as you pursue profit, you will be more important.

There must be a brave man under the reward... I can get any information."

"hehe…"

Liu Yu smiled...

Exchanging money for information is the most reliable and practical method. He understands the essence of it, but Zhang Yulan also learns it very quickly.

It just so happens that the most indispensable thing in Yulin Temple today is money.

"What do you think of these things, husband?" Zhang Yulan was a little concerned about Liu Yu, "Yuan Benchu ​​will invite you for a drink tomorrow... It seems that it will not be simple with these events."

"Without good wine, there is no good banquet..." Liu Yu sighed with emotion.

"So... it's really the Hongmen Banquet?" Zhang Yulan gritted her teeth. She was worried about Liu Yu's safety.

Liu Yu waved his hand, "After all, I am also an official of the imperial court. Even if Yuan Benzhu hates me, he will not openly assassinate me. This will make him... plunge the entire Runan Yuan family into a whirlpool of public opinion."

That…

Zhang Yulan gritted her teeth. "He will...what will he do?"

"I don't know either." Liu Yu spread his hands and said. At this moment... He Jin, He Guiren, Wang Meiren, Yuan Shao, Princess Wannian... everyone who appeared in the intelligence flashed through his mind.

What can these people do when they are arranged together? What will they do?

"How about I accompany you tomorrow...to protect you." Zhang Yulan suggested, "Yuan Shao's kung fu is not very strong. I am sure I can catch him within five moves. With me here, at least he won't dare to play any tricks!"

"Then it's just a warning..." Liu Yu's words went beyond Zhang Yulan's expectation...

He doesn't care about his own safety...but cares about "alerting the enemy"!

So...who is the grass? Who is the snake?

Liu Yu's next words surprised Zhang Yulan even more, "I have never regarded Yuan Shao as my eldest brother. He is the son of the Yuan family in Runan, and he will always represent the position of the Yuan family in Runan. I used to drink with him and get close to him.

, to explore the movements of the Yuan family in Runan, and to overthrow this powerful family that is hindering the development of the Taoist sect!"

"Now, Grand Tutor Yuan Wei resigned and returned home, and Sikong Yuan Feng's body is missing. Next... the one who needs to be dealt with must be Yuan Shao, the eldest son of the Yuan family in Runan, and he also treats me in the same way... Therefore, we cannot alert the snake,

Take advantage of this opportunity!"

Speaking of which…

Liu Yu bit his lip slightly with his teeth, thinking carefully.

And this thought lasted for a full hour.

The long meditation allowed him to completely connect the whole story.

Yuan Shao asked He Jin to visit He Guiren;

Since the noble man went to Jiaofang Palace to see the beautiful lady Wang;

Now the beautiful lady Wang invites Princess Wannian to Jiaofang Palace;

Could it be that... Yuan Shao plans to use his status as Princess Wannian to do something?

If so...how will he use Princess Wannian? How to do it?

etc…

When Liu Yu thought of this, it suddenly became clear. He found that he had fallen into a misunderstanding. He didn't need to understand the whole story at all.

As long as Yuan Shao takes action, then he...will definitely lose!

because…

The appearance of Wang Yue in the last Ma Yuanyi incident made Liu Yu realize that the emperor had been arranging people to protect him...

Or to be precise, they are monitoring him, and this monitoring... is enough to completely collapse all of Yuan Shao's plans, and even... lead him into a situation that is beyond redemption.

And all Liu Yu needs is evidence...

As for this evidence, it is too simple. If Yuan Shao plans to use the identity of Princess Wannian tomorrow, then Princess Wannian will definitely leave the palace. And the princess leaving the palace is by no means a small event. Leaving the palace secretly... People who need to be taken care of need to be taken care of.

There will be more places…

Every link...is evidence!

"Tomorrow we will arrange for all our spies to keep an eye on all the doors of the palace...everyone who comes out of the palace, including sedan chairs...all must be watched!"

Liu Yu began to give instructions, "Also, if you find something strange...or find a sedan or a vehicle hiding Princess Wannian, don't make it public...when she comes back, find a way...to expose it! This is something Yuan Benchu ​​can never do

Clear evidence of guilt!"

this…

Zhang Yulan looked at Liu Yu, and her delicate face, that cold, arrogant and stubborn expression, and those intense eyes that were like burning blazing flames all made her heart tremble.

Husband…

Have you already planned everything in such a short time?

He transformed himself, a chess piece, into a chessboard overnight... to lure Yuan Shao into the game.

"Is this dangerous?" Zhang Yulan gritted her teeth...

Liu Yu took a deep breath and shook his head.

After a long time, he sighed with emotion: "I'm afraid it's Yuan Gongli who is in danger! I wish all this was just my overthinking, but it's a pity... After all, Yuan Shao and I have different camps, and we can never be true brothers!"

"Gudong..."

Zhang Yulan swallowed her saliva and wanted to say something more.

But when the words came to his lips... he swallowed them all.

For a moment, he felt how scary Yuan Shao was, but Yuan Shao was scary... wasn't her husband Liu Yu scary?

Machiavellianism...is a battlefield without smoke!
