Chapter Twenty

Lu Liang came out in disgrace and asked his servants to take all the banknotes back to his house.

When Mr. Lu saw that there were not many bills left, he knew that it was Wei Huai who refused to accept bribes. He became very angry. He reached out and grabbed the bills and tore them to the ground. However, he refused to give up.

So he asked someone to tell Lu Liang and ask him to consult the prince again to find out the magic method.

Lu Liang had no choice but to enter the palace again. When he arrived at the waiting room, he waited for Wan Heshun to come out and immediately knelt down in front of him.

"Oh, Mr. Lu, what are you doing...Did Wei Huai not agree to your promise?" Wan Heshun helped him up and asked.

"King Wanjun, my eyes have really been opened!" Lu Liang sighed in anguish, "There are such unreasonable people in this world! With him here, I'm afraid my brother will be pissed to death!"

"This Wei Jijiu is such a person, even I have a headache, let alone you..."

After hearing Wan Heshun's words, Lu Liang became even more angry and stamped his feet anxiously: "Is there really no way to cure him?! I don't believe there is such a thing in this world!"

"Why don't you just kill him?" Wan Heshunyun smiled lightly.

His true purpose was revealed here. The prince originally wanted to take this opportunity to cause trouble for Wei Huai and make the path for the three of them no longer so easy; but seeing that things had reached the point where they were now, he had no choice but to gently

It's just a vicious plan to use a borrowed knife to kill people.

But for the Lu family, this was a desperate move. Although Lu Liang did not want the Lu family to be the scapegoat for Wan Heshun's murder, he could not match the extreme hatred for Wei Huai in his heart, so he agreed:

"Your Majesty and I have come up with the same idea! This guy really deserves to die!"

Wan Heshun nodded happily: "Then I'll ask Brother Lu to invite the assassin."

"Of course, but..."

"If you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Guan Weihuai holds an important position, so he may not allow anyone to get close to him. Even if there is an assassin, where can he kill him?"

Wan Heshun shook his head and laughed: "If you can't even serve the Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine, then what do I, the prefect, do for a living?"

"You mean..."

"Tomorrow I will summon Wei Huai and other officials to the palace for discussion as usual. Your people will disguise themselves as officers and soldiers and lie down at the Meridian Gate. When they see Wei Huai's sedan arriving, they will step forward to assassinate him. Wouldn't they be captured easily?"

He smiled and knocked Lu Liang on the head:

"You have to be flexible when thinking about things!"

"Mr. Wei?"

Wei Huai opened the door and saw that it was someone sent by the royal palace, waiting outside the door.

"Do you want to come in?" Wei Huai asked.

"No, no, I'm here to tell Jijiu on the prince's order: After lunch today, all officials will come to the palace to discuss politics. We have important matters to discuss."

"I understand. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's hard work there... Since there's nothing to do with the wine ceremony, I'll take my leave."

"Farewell."

Wei Huai closed the door and looked back at Yang Huaisheng and Xia Yuanlong. Seeing Xia Yuanlong's uneasy expression, he leaned over and asked, "What do you think, dear brother?"

"I feel something is strange." Xia Yuanlong said.

"What's weird?" Yang Huaisheng was also surprised and suspicious.

"Recently, we have not made any move to reform the legal system. We only discuss affairs with the six ministries on weekdays. Why do we call people from the Imperial Academy again today? It must be bad."

"What the hell? The prince asked me to go, and I dare not refuse?" Wei Huai said worriedly.

"Yes...brother Renying..." Yang Huaisheng also looked at him worriedly.

Xia Yuanlong was dull for a while and then said: "I have my own idea about this matter, don't worry."

It was noon, Wei Huai ordered his servants to bring food, and invited Xia Yuanlong and Yang Huaisheng to eat together in the house. They also agreed to do it for the sake of convenience. However, Xia Yuanlong only took three or two bites, then put down his chopsticks and wiped the food.

He wiped his hands and said with a smile: "Brothers, please eat slowly. I have something to do when I go out." Wei Huaizheng wanted to ask him for some explanation, but Xia Yuanlong turned away from the screen early and went out.

"We can't let him pretend to be mysterious," Yang Huaisheng stopped eating, stood up immediately, and put on his official robe, "I want to ask him!" He quickly walked out of the house, took a path and ran straight to the door.

I saw Xia Yuanlong ordering his servants to carry out Wei Huai's official sedan with a blue curtain and a tin roof.

"Yes, carry it out, carry it out..." Xia Yuanlong shouted.

"Brother Xia Xian," Yang Huaisheng stepped forward and asked, "What exactly do you want?"

"Brother Zhong Fang, it's more important to go back to eat. Didn't I say it? Don't worry." Xia Yuanlong advised.

"Should we discuss this matter at least?" Yang Huaisheng said.

"Then..." Xia Yuanlong tugged on his sleeve, "Go and talk."

The two of them walked to a hidden place. When Xia Yuanlong saw no one around, he whispered:

"I estimate that Wan Heshun is planning to kill Brother Wei."

Yang Huaisheng looked at him in astonishment. "Is there any evidence?"

Xia Yuanlong smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "There is no real evidence...it's just speculation." After that, he added: "But be careful when sailing a ten thousand year ship."

"Then what do you want to do with the sedan?"

Xia Yuanlong's eyes moved hesitantly, and then he smiled: "Then please don't tell Ji Min, Brother Zhong Fang."

"I know this." Yang Huaisheng said.

"I want to come up with a plan to replace the old one. I am going to send this sedan to Siye and find an excuse to change the sedans on both sides. If something happens then, the person who will die will definitely be... someone else." Xia Yuanlong said slowly.

, secretly spying on Yang Huaisheng's face.

"Si Ye is also a Wan Heshun man. This guy likes to accept stolen money and usually bullies others. I think killing him can also give that old guy a long memory. Even if this kind of person is killed unjustly, I am afraid that even Minxian brother

There will be no objection."

"That's not what I meant. I just felt that I was not calm when dealing with important matters involving the people, and I was afraid of causing trouble, so I just talked to Zhong Fang."

"That's right. Then get busy!" Yang Huaisheng patted him and walked into the house. He turned around and saw Wei Huai. He concealed the matter and only said: "Xia Yuanlong also refuses to accuse anyone. Let him

Just go."

Although Xia Yuanlong moved the sedan out, he did not dare to sit in it for fear of violating the regulations. He taught two slaves to carry the empty sedan while he walked beside him, zigzagging for a few streets, and landed in the Imperial College.

The soldier guarding the gate knew that he was the brother of Master Jijiu and Master Dianbo, and did not want to offend him, so he turned a blind eye and allowed him to stride across the threshold.

Xia Yuanlong asked Si Ye where he lived and went straight through the corridor to find him, but bumped into him halfway.

The two bumped shoulders. Si Ye recognized Xia Yuanlong's appearance and stopped him flatly: "How dare you come here!"

Xia Yuanlong hurriedly bowed as a salute and said with a smile: "Master Jijiu has something to do, so he sent me here to tell you something important."

Si Ye was quite surprised. He quickly adjusted his appearance and said, "Please come into the office."

The two of them walked through the corridor, walked to a house, climbed the stone steps, blew the dust on the door, opened the two door panels, and stepped inside, then closed the door ajar.
