I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 598 Goodbye Old Friends
After half an hour.

The city preparation army around the south city gate has been withdrawn, civil and military officials have returned to their homes, and Ning Wenjun has also driven back to the palace.

They came this time to welcome Wei Changtian, and as for discussing the matter of resisting the enemy, they must find another time, so after the mission was completed, they each went home.

And Wei Changtian was also sitting in the carriage, preparing to go back to the Wei Mansion to stay first, and then start to deal with the things to be done in the capital.

"My lord, it's only been two years, I never imagined that the capital has become like this."

In the sedan chair, Yang Liushi looked at the scene outside the car window with a slightly sad tone.

Wei Changtian was in the same mood right now.

They walked all the way, although there were many people on the street, most of them looked dejected.

One by one, they either hurriedly walked with their heads bowed, or they were just wandering around with nothing to do.

The originally bustling capital city became lifeless, and it was completely different from the state when Wei Changtian left.

But it's normal to think about it.

Wei Xianzhi rebelled and elected Ning Wenjun as the new emperor. He must have killed many people at that time.

Including after Ning Yongnian's death, there will inevitably be another wave of "cleaning up".

With the two "big cleansings" and the "grain market chaos" that lasted for nearly a year, everyone in the capital must have been in danger and all industries were in decline.

Even though Ning Wenjun is firmly seated on the throne and the political situation is stable, the past damages cannot be undone so easily.

I don't know how long it will take for the capital to restore its former prosperity
"Alas, prosperity is suffering for the people, and death is also suffering for the people."

Shaking his head, Wei Changtian sighed softly.

Yang Liushi was immediately stunned by this sentence that everyone in the previous world had to memorize.

She pursed her lips lightly and lowered her eyelids, as if she was pondering the deep meaning of the words.

Wei Changtian glanced at her, then shifted his gaze to Li Zimu.

The latter has been silent since getting into the car, and has been looking out of the car, probably because he was shocked by the battle just now.

After all, from a poor woman who was almost tortured to death by bandits to a guest of the Wei family who could see the emperor of a country with her own eyes, such a change in status and vision cannot be achieved in just two days.

"Miss Li, you have seen what happened just now."

Suddenly, Wei Changtian asked without warning: "Do you think Ning Wenjun is the kind of person who is willing to be a puppet of my Wei family for the rest of his life?"

"what?"

Li Zimu was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly turned his head, his eyes happened to meet Wei Changtian's.

She obviously didn't expect that the latter would suddenly test herself, but she soon came back to her senses, and after thinking for a while, she slowly answered:

"Young master, he is not."

"why?"

Wei Changtian had already obtained the answer through the conversation with Ning Wenjun just now, so he knew that Li Zimu's analysis was right again this time.

But he still wanted to hear how the latter reasoned.

"If Ning Wenjun dares to disobey the Wei family, he will only end up dead. He knows this very well."

"So why do you think he is willing to risk his life to find a chance to get rid of my Wei family's control?"

"My lord, since the emperor welcomes you today with such pomp and circumstance, of course he will not put himself in danger."

Li Zimu corrected seriously: "So I just said that he is unwilling, but I didn't say that he would do it."

"Ok?"

Wei Changtian had a calm expression: "What do you mean?"

"Well, not being reconciled is always thinking about it, if you have the opportunity, do it, if you don't have the opportunity, don't do it."

Li Zimu looked at Wei Changtian, with his hands resting on his knees: "The emperor must be secretly accumulating power. If the young master is always strong in the future, he will always hold back and never fight against the young master."

"But if the young master's power declines one day, then he may make trouble."

"Is it."

Taking a deep look at Li Zimu, Wei Changtian had already received the best answer he expected.

This should indeed be Ning Wenjun's idea.

It's just that I cheated from the latter's mouth, but Li Zimu was
From this point of view, her "mind reading skills" are really not luck.

"Well said."

After a pause, Wei Changtian praised for the first time.

Li Zimu bowed his head in embarrassment, just about to say something.

However, the carriage stopped slowly at this moment, and Zhang San's slightly relaxed voice came from outside the carriage.

"Sir, it's here."

The familiar vermilion gate, the bluestone road in front of the gate, and the old trees beside the road
After walking for more than two years, I finally returned to the "first stop" after crossing.

Standing in front of the door, Wei Changtian looked up at the word "Wei Mansion" on the plaque, and couldn't help feeling a burst of emotion in his heart.

He originally thought that his return should be after the "three-year period", but he didn't expect it to be a few months earlier.

From leaving as a "phase murderer" to returning as being greeted by the emperor in person, if he had been miserable when he left, this would undoubtedly be a "I used to be ignored by you, but now you don't care about me". I, You Can't Climb Higher", the classic bridge section.

Put it in a classic web article in the previous life, no matter what, I have to add a sentence——

Thirty years of Hedong, thirty years of Hexi, don't bully the poor!

But it's a pity that Wei Changtian was not "poor" when he left, but now he is at most "richer" than before.

So besides being a little bit emotional about the passage of time, he doesn't have the slightest feeling of "returning home and elated".

"Son!!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came first, followed by a muscular figure.

Seeing Wang Er who came from the courtyard, a smile appeared on Wei Changtian's face.

"Hahaha, Wang Er!"

"Son!"

"Wang Er!"

"male"

"Okay! Stop it!"

"Yes"

When a pair of evil masters and servants met again, Wei Changtian immediately recalled a lot of past events.

Strictly speaking, Wang Er was the first "person of his own" he had won over. Not only did he do a lot of things for him, but he also managed the Freemasonry in an orderly manner during the two years since he left Beijing.

It didn't live up to my expectations.

"Son."

A gust of breeze stirred the clothes corners of the two masters and servants who once worked hand in hand and did bad things all over the place.

After looking Wei Changtian up and down, the sturdy Wang Er contemplated for a while, and quietly choked out a sentence——

"You seem to have lost weight"

"???"

Seeing Wang Er's somewhat distressed expression, Wei Changtian's face was darkened.

"If you don't know how to talk, just talk less!"

"Yes, yes, the villain just feels a little bit sorry for the young master's body"

Sensing that Wei Changtian's face was getting darker and darker, Wang Er stopped talking in time, and immediately pointed to the side as if asking for credit.

"Young master! Who do you think this is?!"

"."

Good guy, I haven't seen you for two years, Wang Er hasn't changed anything else, but his skill at selling Guanzi has improved a lot.

Wei Changtian rolled his eyes, and his gaze shifted to the white and clean man beside him.

Wearing a shawl on the head, wearing a white scholar's robe, with one hand behind his back, the other hand is holding an unfolded folding fan and shaking slightly.

If it hadn't been for Da Dong fan making him look stupid, otherwise at first glance he would look a bit suave and suave.

only.
"Uh, this brother, I don't know if you are"

Looking at the young master who was smiling at him, Wei Changtian was at a loss as to who this person was.

As soon as he said this, the smile on Young Master Brother's face froze immediately, and then he wailed mournfully:

"Brother Wei!! It's me!! Li Yang!!!"

"What? Brother Li??!"

Wei Changtian turned pale with shock, and quickly looked at it repeatedly, only then did he find some similarities with Li Yang from the face of this white-faced boy.

"Brother Li, have you had plastic surgery???"
