Chapter 141 Assassination

"What? You actually want to assassinate Mr. Dee?"

"What? Can't you do that?"

The viper next to him also looked at Jin Mulan, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Zhang Yang said angrily: "Of course not, Jin Mulan, let me tell you. Since you want to be the second Wu Zetian, you need the help of these veterans, otherwise you will die without knowing how."

After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he asked them to leave.

Jin Mulan sat down and said, "Don't worry, I have a way to make Di Renjie fall into my trap."

"Stop talking about it, is it just your brain?" Zhang Yang said disdainfully: "Can your political ability and level compare to Duke Di who has been with you like a tiger in the court for decades?"

"Don't be ridiculous. A person like you who sells out his own country's interests still wants to be the second Wu Zetian. You are shameless and extremely ridiculous."

Viper drew his sword and put it against Zhang Yang's throat and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, you will die."

Zhang Yang said: "You want to kill me? You are not qualified."

Jin Mulan looked at Viper and said, "Put it down."

"How can you help me?"

"I won't help you. You, me, and Prince Li Xian are fighting just to show off your ambitions. That chair is stained with too much blood. I hope you can take care of yourself." Zhang Yang pointed to the door: "Let's go. Well, the next time we meet will be when you and I are hostile."

Just like that, Jin Mulan left.

Zhang Yang sat at the table and looked at the jade pendant left by Jin Mulan. Zhang Yang knew that she could no longer look back, so why bother. So many lives were sacrificed for a dragon chair.

Evilai walked in at this time and said, "Master, this is the medical skill you want."

"let it go."

Skills: Taoist Guidance Technique (Perfection), Thirteen Qingfeng Swords (Proficient), Stepping on the Snow without Traces (Dacheng), Ice Muscle and Jade Bone (Perfection), Medical Skills (Not Beginner) +]

Zhang Yang clicked the plus sign, and in an instant the six vitality disappeared without a trace, but the medical skill became [Medical Skill (Dacheng)]

Feeling the medical skills in my mind, I shouted to the door: "Evil is coming."

"Master, what are your orders?"

Zhang Yang handed him a piece of paper and said, "Buy me all the medicinal materials on it."

"Yes, Master."

After Xilai left, Xingtian walked in and said, "Master, I'm here."

Zhang Yang looked at the dancing candlelight and said, "Can I believe you?"

"This...why did the young master say this?"

"I need to vote for a certificate."

Xing Tian knelt down and said, "Young Master, I am born as Young Master's person, and when I die, I am Young Master's ghost."

"Get up, I believe in you and Xi Lai, not others." Zhang Yang said, "Go ahead, I will invite all my colleagues in Youzhou City to dinner tomorrow."

"Master, I understand."

"You are a smart man. Only you know this. The people under you also need this." Zhang Yang said.

"Master, I understand."

Zhang Yang didn't speak for a long time, then suddenly said: "Don't blame me."

Xing Tian said with a smile: "We are the heirs of the surname Li. During this period of time, our subordinates can see the ambition of the young master, and they will do nothing for the young master without hesitation."

"go Go."

Zhang Yang looked at his hands and knew that embarking on this road was the point of no return.

……

The next day, Fang Qian and Wu Yizhi came to Wuyuan to check out the situation in the name of paying their respects to the imperial envoy. Hu Jinghui introduced them into the main hall.

Fang Qian said: "General Tiger, Mr. Di has been working too hard these past two days. You should persuade him to rest more."

Hu Jinghui said: "Oh, really? I think you have been in good spirits these past two days. Last night, I drank and chatted with a county magistrate. We talked all night long and laughed from time to time."

The muscles on Fang Qian and Wu Yizhi's faces immediately tensed up, and they looked at each other. Hu Jinghui said: "But what Mr. Fang said makes sense. Mr. Di is over 70 years old after all. Thank you for reminding me, I will definitely give him some advice."

Fang Qian pretended to be careless and said in circles: "Yes. Ah, I don't know where the county magistrate is, but he can chat with the imperial envoy all night long. I'm afraid he is an old friend of Duke Di, right?"

Hu Jinghui said carelessly: "Who knows. I can't remember people's names. I vaguely heard someone mention it, probably his surname is Zhao."

Fang Qian's footsteps suddenly stopped, and Wu Yizhi quickly touched him. Fang Qian finally came to his senses and followed Hu Jinghui forward. The three of them were walking and chatting, and before they knew it, they had arrived in front of the main hall.

Hu Jinghui said, "Wait a moment, you two. I'll go in and report." After saying that, he opened the door and walked in.

The moment they opened the door, Fang Qian and Wu Yizhi saw a man wearing a seventh-grade official uniform walking quickly towards the back room, and the door was immediately closed behind him. Fang Qian asked Wu Yizhi in a low voice: "Did you see it?" Wu Yizhi nodded slightly: "It is indeed Zhao Chuanchen! Mr. Fang, the situation is not good. I think we should leave as soon as possible."

Before Fang Qian could answer, Duke Di's stern voice came from the main hall: "Why didn't you inform us in advance?"

Fang Qian was surprised. Hu Jinghui's voice was heard defending: "I think the two adults are acquaintances, so I led them directly to the main hall."

Judge Di snorted heavily: "You really made your own decision. Okay, invite them in!" Fang Qian and Wu Yizhi exchanged glances.

Hu Jinghui came out: "Two adults, please come inside." The two nodded and walked into the main hall.

Duke Di stood up, and Fang Qian and Wu Yizhi quickly bowed and saluted: "I have seen you in this humble position."

Duke Dee smiled and said, "You two don't have to be polite, please sit down."

Di Gong's friendly attitude made Fang and Wu, who had evil intentions, suddenly feel like they were in a fog.

After the three people sat down, Di Gong said: "Yesterday in the court, I was worried about civil affairs and spoke too much. I want Mr. Fang to forgive me."

Fang Qian couldn't help being surprised, and said quickly: "I don't dare, I don't dare. Your Excellency is concerned about the country and the people, and you are righteous and strict in your speech. Fang Qian admires him very much. I hope you will forgive me for forcing you to contradict him in the hall yesterday."

Judge Dee smiled and waved his hand: "Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Are you two here for something?"

Fang Qian said: "The two of us are here to see if there is anything else you need."

Judge Di said: "The arrangement is very thoughtful, I made you two worry about it."

Servants serve fragrant tea. Judge Di said: "You two, please have some tea. This is the best tea I brought from Jiangxi."

Fang and Wu took a sip from the tea cup and praised in unison: "It is indeed a good tea!" Judge Di smiled and said: "Master Fang, are there any scenic spots or elegant places near Youzhou that I would like to pay homage to?" Ichiban.”

Fang Qian was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately realized: "Ah, yes, yes. I will humbly accompany you the other day."

Judge Dee said: "Okay, that's settled."

Fang Qian returned to the subject: "Sir, after I returned home yesterday, I thought about the consolation payment carefully..."

Unexpectedly, Di Gong waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Hey, we are only talking about friendship today, not official matters. Mr. Fang, I heard that there is a Lion House in Youzhou City, which specializes in famous dishes from outside the Great Wall. Will it attract me someday? Go and taste it."

Fang Qian had not yet woken up and was speechless: "Ah, this..." Wu Yizhi quickly took over the conversation and said: "Your Excellency is so knowledgeable that he even knows about places like the Lion Tower. Yes, yes, the hands of the Lion Tower Braised mutton, the blood from the intestines and the tendons is a specialty in Youzhou."

Fang Qian smiled, and his smile was extremely embarrassing: "If you are so interested, sir, I am willing to accompany you at any time."

Judge Dee laughed and said, "Okay, you lead the way, and I'll treat you." After saying this, several people laughed.

Fang Qian stood up and said, "Your Excellency has just settled down. There must be many things waiting to be dealt with urgently. I will take my leave now and enjoy myself with you another day."

Judge Dee was stunned: "Why, are you leaving now? At least we had lunch!"

Fang Qian said: "I won't disturb you, sir."

Judge Di said: "Okay, then I won't keep you two. Jinghui, see off the guests for me."

Fang and Wu saluted and walked out. Judge Dee said to the inner room: "Come out."

As soon as the door curtain was lifted, Di Chun came out with a smile in his seventh-grade official uniform: "How about it, sir, do I look good as a county magistrate?"

Di Gong smiled and said: "Well, the difference is similar. After changing clothes, he ordered Qian Niuwei to send Zhao Chuanchen back to Sanhe County." Di Chun agreed and left.

It turned out that Di Gong had expected that Ding Fang and Wu would come to inquire after hearing that the county magistrate had been summoned, so he ordered Di Chun to put on his seventh-rank official uniform and deliberately let Fang and Wu see him from a distance. This is called the stratagem of doubting soldiers and the tactics of attacking people's hearts.

After Fang Qian and Wu Yizhi returned to the Governor's Mansion, they were restless and fearful. Fang Qian wrung his hands and kept pacing. Wu Yizhi whispered: "Sir, that's not right!"

Fang Qian turned around and said, "The person named Di must know something!"

Wu Yizhi nodded: "Yesterday his attitude was so fierce, but today he is so harmonious and never mentioned the consolation money, which makes people suspicious. I think this Zhao Chuanchen may be a little unreliable."

Fang Qian thought quietly for a long time, and finally said: "I personally promoted Zhao Chuanchen. I don't believe that he would betray me so quickly. Could it be..."

There were hurried footsteps outside the door, followed by a knock on the door. Wu Yizhi called out "come in", and a wretched-looking government servant walked in and reported: "Not long after the two adults left, Zhao Chuanchen came out and said he was going back." Sanhe County is escorted by Qianniu Guards."

Fang Qian was startled again and exchanged glances with Wu Yizhi. After the government officials withdrew, Wu Yizhi said: "Sir, we can say with certainty that Zhao Chuanchen has betrayed us! Otherwise, Di Renjie will never let him out of the house, let alone send Qianniu Guards to escort him."

Fang Qian gritted his teeth and said, "Zhao Chuanchen! This ungrateful thing!"

Wu Yizhi said: "I finally understand that the reason why Di Renjie put on a pleasant face today is to confuse us and make us not be wary so that he can act secretly. In fact, he has already figured it out."

Fang Qian cursed: "This cunning old fox!"

Wu Yizhi said: "If it's just the hundreds of thousands of taels of consolation silver, I'm afraid the Tianbao bank account will be found out, and then everything will be over."

Fang Qian swallowed nervously: "What do you think we should do?"

Wu Yizhi gritted his teeth and said: "No poison, no husband!"

Fang Qian was shocked: "Kill and silence?"

Wu Yizhi nodded: "Pretend to commit suicide out of fear of crime."

Fang Qian shook his head: "The person named Di is not a fool. Once Zhao Chuanchen died, he must have known that it was us."

Wu Yizhi said: "So what? This is called death without evidence. He just has huge suspicions. How can he touch a dignified governor like you without evidence?"

Fang Qian slammed the table: "Okay, let's do it!"

……

into the night.

Zhang Yang was followed by Xing Tian Erai and two others, who came to the restaurant with two jars of wine in their hands.

They booked the restaurant tonight. Zhang Yang walked over and said, "I'm going to treat you all to a nice meal and drink tonight. I've also brought the 20-year-old Zhuangyuanhong from Jiangxi. Let's have a drink together."

Everyone: "Thank you, Master."

Watching everyone drink the wine, Zhang Yang smiled and nodded, but there was a trace of determination in his smile.

When I came to a private room, there were all bad guys sitting inside, and the leader was Wang Zhi.

"My subordinate Wang Zhi has met the young master."

"Get up." Zhang Yang said, "I had a drink downstairs. I don't know if you will give me this face when I come up."

E Lai and Xing Tian filled everyone's cups with wine and said, "Young Master invited you to drink."

Wang Zhi already sensed that something was wrong, but he had to shoot as the arrow was on the string.

Said: "Master, this wine..."

Zhang Yang said: "There is no problem with this wine, but I need to see your sincerity."

Wang Zhi said: "Drink, my subordinates."

Zhang Yang said: "Come, let's all drink from this cup together." He didn't raise the cup after he finished speaking.

After watching everyone drink it, Zhang Yang said: "This is called Zhuangyuan Red. I have a thing called Zhuangyuan Red. The combination of the two is very clever. You can also see that there is poison in this wine. This poison is my exclusive secret recipe. It’s unknowable to outsiders.”

"You believe me, and I will believe you, but you must be wary of others. I need your certificate of surrender, and this wine is your certificate of surrender."

"Now I can trust you 100%."

Everyone: "Thank you, Master."

"You're welcome, Wang Zhi, I want you to check Tianbao's bank account for me, and I will help you."

"Yes, Master."

"Xingtian, you continue to recruit servants and adopt children under ten years old, both men and women."

"Yes, Master."

"Let us fight for Li Tang and the world."

"Long live!!!"
