Midnight introduced Deng Ai into a rather gorgeous house, which was not much better than Deng Ai's residence in Xiangyang.
"I'm going to make tea for the young master. The young master will rest for a while." After helping Deng Ai sit down, Midnight went out again.
After a while, she came in with a teapot, and Deng Ai, who was pretending to be drunk, saw someone hiding outside the window.
Picking up the tea and smelling it, Deng Ai smelled a sweet fragrance, "This tea?"
Ziye replied with some fear, "I added some honey to this tea. I'm afraid the young master may find the tea bitter, but it can also relieve hangovers."
Deng Ai chuckled and drank the cup of tea without saying another word.
Deng Ai was sober after drinking his morning tea, but he felt even more hot all over, "Damn it! This Wei Cheng is really useful for everything. Anyway, he planned to do it for real. I thought I wouldn't dare to sleep with you."
Anyone coming?"
Thinking about this, Deng Ai stood up and hugged Ziye, "Please serve me to bed."
"promise."
After a while, a faint sound came from the room, and the people guarding the window also left.
In the main hall of the Wei family, Wei Cheng, several family heads, Li Yi, and He Xin were sitting together. They were also drinking tea.
Li Yi frowned and looked at Wei Cheng, "Master Wei, is your move too risky? After all, they are people close to the king."
He Xin also said, "Yes, Master Wei, if they know that you have plotted against us, we will all die without a burial place."
"Bang!"

Wei Cheng put down the tea cup in his hand and smiled confidently, "Don't worry, you two. Isn't that what we did to deal with the former county magistrate?"
"I put medicine in the tea just to cook the rice. I need to establish a good relationship with these two first, serve them well, and then give them some benefits. Doesn't it have to be used by us?"
A family head under Wei Cheng said worriedly, "But these two are the adopted sons of the king after all, and their status is different from ordinary people."
Wei Cheng smiled coldly, "It is precisely because they are the adopted sons of the king that I am so confident!"
Amid everyone's confusion, Wei Cheng explained quite complacently, "Think about it, what do they rely on to be so arrogant? Isn't it because of their status as the adopted sons of the great king?"
"If we get them on our boat, will they dare to let us have trouble? Youdao is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. These two are more afraid of being punished than us!"
"They have been punished by the king, will they have a good ending? If their adopted son commits a crime, the king will punish him more harshly. By then, even their own mother may be implicated."
"So, as long as the matter is done, they will never dare to report us. On the contrary, they will have to help us cover it up!"
Everyone's eyes lit up and they all agreed, and Li Yi laughed easily, "Otherwise, you, Wei Cheng, could have been running rampant in Taojiang for many years. With this scheming, who in Taojiang can compare to you, the head of the Wei family?"
"Hahaha……"

"Director Li has commended you. I have already prepared your and Master He's shares. I will send someone to deliver them to your residence later."
He Xin sighed and said, "It's a pity that such a beauty has taken advantage of those two boys."
Wei Cheng said seriously, "Brother He, pay attention to your wording. Those two are not the brats you talk about. Besides, with the support of these two, do you want any women in the future?"
He Xin smiled awkwardly, "That's all I said. Don't worry, Brother Wei, it will never happen again in the future."
While several people were talking, the housekeeper walked in, raised his hands to Wei Cheng and said, "Master, the matter is half done."
Wei Cheng frowned and asked, "What do you mean by half?"
The housekeeper chuckled and said, "Master, Mr. Deng took Ziye away, but Mr. Sun, according to Zi Xi, he returned to his room and fell asleep."
Zixi is the name of the woman who accompanied Sun Shao.
Wei Cheng waved his hand, "You go down."
"promise."

After the housekeeper left, Wei Cheng looked around at everyone present, "I'm a little worried that Mr. Sun won't accept Zi Xi. What do you think?"
Police Commissioner Li Yi stroked his beard and said, "Brother Wei, don't think about how old Mr. Sun is. He is only thirteen years old. It is normal for him to be drunk. Even if Miss Zixi tries her best, Mr. Sun may not be able to.
That ability.”
"Hahaha……"
Li Yi's words made everyone present laugh happily.
Wei Cheng also relaxed, "Brother Li said that I thought too much and neglected that Mr. Sun is still young, so that's okay. Mr. Deng has accepted Ziye anyway. We can rest assured."
"Thanks to Brother Wei's clever plan."
"What about the king's adopted son? Isn't he being manipulated by Brother Wei?"
Everyone complimented him one after another, and Wei Cheng seemed to feel that he was successful, and chatted happily with everyone.
For several days, Deng Ai and Sun Shao had banquets and fun at Wei Cheng's house, and did not even deal with official business of the county government. Needless to say, Sun Shao still did not touch Zi Xi, while Deng Ai and Zi Ye were at Wei's house.
In the mansion, there was music and singing almost every night.
Wei Cheng became happier day by day. His eyes and ears were completely fixed on Deng Ai and Sun Shao.

On the seventh day, Zhou Yuan came over!
"Zhou Yuan asks to see Deng Ai. Please introduce him to him."
In front of the gate, Zhou Yuan handed the invitation to the servant of the Wei family's concierge in a calm and humble manner.
When the servant handed the invitation to Wei Cheng, Wei Cheng was asking people to melt all kinds of jewelry. There were both gold and silver, and the jewelry was not easy to carry. But after it was melted, it was made into gold bars and could be easily counted and stored.
.
Taking the greeting card from the servant, Wei Cheng smiled coldly and threw it into the fire.
"Master? Don't you see him?"
Wei Cheng shook his head and said, "I still want to see you, but let him wait a little longer."
"I understand, little one." The servant chuckled and ran out.
He was sent away by simply saying that the head of the family was having a drink with the magistrate and asked him to wait here. It was just after the New Year, and Changsha County was located in the south, so there was no bone-chilling chill. It was just such humiliation that made Zhou Yuan angry.
The servants of the Wei family even pointed at him, talking and laughing with pride in the Wei family's power and disdain for their own inability to do anything.
An hour later, Wei Cheng asked his servants to lead Zhou Yuan in.
In the main hall of Wei's house, Deng Ai and Sun Shao were sitting next to beauties, constantly pouring wine for them.
Wei Cheng and others were sitting below, and the whole hall was filled with the sound of chatting and laughing.
Seeing Zhou Yuan come in, Wei Cheng stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I have met Mr. Zhou. If you don't mind me, please take a seat with me."
Zhou Yuan glanced at him indifferently, and then walked straight to Deng Ai, "Shizai, the king appointed you as the magistrate of Taojiang County, so that you can manage Taojiang well. He did not ask you to come here to collude with these people, work together, and enjoy the wine.
A beauty’s!”
"Bang!"
Deng Ai threw the wine bottle to the ground angrily, "I have been studying hard in Xiangyang for several years, can't I enjoy it?"
Zhou Yuan said angrily, "Shizai, you are the king's adopted son. You should know how to be a good official. If you enjoy yourself here for one day, the people outside will suffer for one more day. You can't let the people suffer."
, let alone live up to the king’s expectations, Shizai!”
Deng Ai said disdainfully, "Since you know that I am the adopted son of the great king, why should I worry about anything else? Let me tell you, I, Deng Ai, will become a high official sooner or later!"
"You are just a pretender, Your Majesty. I will write to my father about this matter and ask him to report it to Your Majesty!"
