I'm the villain in the book

"what?!!"

He stood up with a "bass", his eyes widened.

When the man in black told Gongsun Yanzhi the news of Lu Yuansong's death, the latter was visibly shocked to the extreme.

Yes, he did not deal with Lu Yuansong, and he even longed for the latter to die soon.

But Gongsun Yan never expected that Lu Yuansong would die so without warning.

"Who did it?!"

Turning his head suddenly to look at the man in black, he hurriedly asked: "Eldest prince? Or third prince?"

"I don't know yet."

The man in black immediately replied truthfully: "At present, we only know that an assassin has infiltrated the Changding Hall, and killed everyone in the hall including the second prince within a quarter of an hour."

"And the assassin also killed Huang Tianshi who went to save people."

"."

There are many witnesses to what happened in Changding Hall, and it is not a secret.

The man in black probably had a high status in the palace, so he quickly told Gongsun Yan the whole incident.

The latter didn't ask any more questions after listening, just sat back on the chair in a daze, and remained silent for a long time.

The candlelight was flickering, the study room was quiet, and the faint fragrance of ink floated in the tense air.

Seeing that Gongsunyan was silent, the man in black just stood there quietly. It was not until some time later that he heard a murmur that seemed to be talking to himself.

"He killed it."

"."

His pupils shrank subconsciously, and the man in black suddenly turned his head to look at Gongsunyan with a surprised expression.

Because there are two meanings implied in this sentence.

First, Gongsun Yan has already guessed the real murderer who assassinated Lu Yuansong.

Second, Gongsun Yan recognized this person.

"Master, this man."

After hesitating for a moment, the man in black was about to ask something, but was interrupted by Gongsun Yan before he finished speaking:
"You go out first."

".Yes."

His eyes froze, the man in black cupped his hands, and quickly bowed his head and exited the study.

Gongsunyan was the only one left in the room again, but the news brought by the man in black made the former's mentality completely different from before.

Undoubtedly, Gongsun Yan had guessed that Wei Changtian had killed Lu Yuansong.

As for why Lu Yuansong was killed instead of others, it is not difficult to deduce the truth based on what happened in Ma Xing this morning.

Help yourself to kill the enemy of life and death, and help yourself to sit on the dragon chair.
Gongsun Yan is a businessman, so he naturally understands the principle of "equal value exchange".

He thinks he has nothing that the latter can look up to.

Then, there is only one reason why Wei Changtian did this——

Because his surname is not Lu.

"Ugh"

Sighing lightly, Gongsun Yan didn't know how he should be feeling now.

Things that are dreamed of by others are extremely entangled here.

After all, Gongsun Yan not only understands "equivalent exchange", but also understands that the greater the benefit, the greater the risk in doing business.

So, should you take the risk?
Gongsunyan knew that if he didn't agree, Wei Changtian would definitely turn around and find someone else.

And at that time, his own fate will definitely not be so optimistic.
His brows were furrowed tightly, and his mind was like a mess, the pros and cons of gains and losses were mixed together and it was difficult to distinguish.

Gongsun Yan struggled and thought for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth at a certain moment and shouted:
"Come on!"

"."

"master."

The door was pushed open again, and the man in black just now appeared in front of Gongsun Yan without leaving.

The latter did not hesitate this time, and immediately ordered in a deep voice:

"There is an inn in the south of the city, named Zhuwu, you immediately take people to ambush around."

"If there are people in the yamen who want to interrogate the guests staying in the hotel, they will be sent away with some money."

"But remember, you must not disturb the people in the store!"

"Do you understand?"

".Yes, the villain understands."

The man in black answered a little slower, as he didn't understand what Gongsun Yan was trying to do.

After he answered, he was ready to go out to deal with the matter, but at this moment, Gongsun Yan behind him suddenly added another sentence.

"Go and inform the county offices that all the masters above the third rank and above, all set off to Beijing immediately!"

Make people go to Zhuwu to "step on the spot", and order all the masters under his command to come to Yongding City immediately.

Obviously, Gongsun Yan was still unwilling to miss this opportunity after all, and decided to take a gamble.

So far, with the last gust of east wind gradually rising, the downfall of the Dahui has entered the countdown.

And half an hour later, when Zhang San told Wei Changtian about the extra pairs of "eyes" outside the inn, the latter also understood all this.

"Okay, I finally didn't waste all my efforts in vain."

"Sleep, see you tomorrow."

Soon, all the candles in the small courtyard were extinguished, and there was silence in the bamboo forest.

Wei Changtian didn't care about the people sent by Gongsunyan at all, and he didn't care about the sound of horseshoes in the city, so he went to bed after washing up.

He was in a relaxed mood, practicing the Luoqiong sword vigorously in the dream path.

But one of the few people guarding outside the inn felt completely opposite to him.

"call"

Staring at the bamboo dock not far away that melted into the night, Chu An took a deep breath.

He was ordered to come here with the man in black.

Since he was just an ordinary customer, Chu An had no idea what he and the others were doing here.

It was also because he didn't know that he was so disturbed.

After all, no matter what Gongsun Yan wanted to do, since he made such a big move, it must be a big deal.

And once they are involved in this kind of thing, the life and death of ordinary people can no longer be controlled by themselves.

"Brother Zhang."

Quietly walking to the man in black, Chu An said softly, "Take a step to talk."

"Ok?"

The man in black surnamed Zhang was taken aback for a moment, and after hesitating for a while, he followed Chu An to the side.

"What's wrong? Tell me!"

"Brother Zhang."

Chu An lowered his voice and asked, "What is your lord ordering us to come here for?"

"Why are you asking this?"

The man in black frowned, staring at Chu An with a strange expression, his eyes full of suspicion.

Chu An struggled for a moment, and answered truthfully with some difficulty:
"Brother Zhang, to be honest, the shopkeeper of this Zhuwu is actually me, a lady who has never been married."

"what?"

His eyes widened slightly, the man in black obviously didn't expect Chu An to say such a sentence.

However, he quickly came back to his senses, squinting and asked:

"Are you afraid that what we are going to do will affect her?"

"Yes"

Chu An lowered his head and asked sincerely: "Brother Zhang, although I don't know what the prince is going to do, she is just a commoner girl, so she must have nothing to do with this matter."

"I don't know if you can allow me to pick her up and go somewhere else for a while?"

"It won't work."

Without any hesitation, the man in black shook his head and refused, "You have been working under the prince for more than a year, and you should understand the rules."

"But you needn't be so worried."

"This time the prince ordered us to protect the people in the inn, so there will be no conflicts."

"Yes. I understand."

Lowering his eyes, Chu An didn't say anything after all.

He just turned his head and glanced at the bamboo groves across the street, and there was a ghost-faced red flood in his dantian.

"Shan Hai Jing Da Huang Jing": Beyond the Northwest Sea, north of Chishui, there is Zhangwei Mountain.There is a god, with a human face and a snake body, but red, with straight eyes and straight eyes, whose eyes are dark, and whose eyes are bright.Don't eat, don't sleep, don't rest, the wind and rain are the same.It is Zhu Jiuyin, which is called Candle Dragon.

Candle Dragon, the way of destruction.
