Chapter 53 It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge
After weighing the pros and cons, Xie Wenxuan said: "Reporting to the prince, the man's name is Zhang Ye. He is from the same village as ours. I only just found out about this matter. If I had known earlier, I would not have sent my cousin here."

In desperation, he casually made up a name. This person named Zhang Ye was also his former enemy, because this person often said in front of outsiders that he was a soft-boiled person and had high status in the prince's palace. In short, he was quite looked down upon.

When Dugu Shu heard this, there was a look of contempt in his eyes, "He is your cousin's old lover?"

Xie Wenxuan objected: "No, he raped my cousin!"

"In that case, Mr. Xie, why didn't you take any action?"

Dugu Shu glanced at him coldly and continued to speak sarcastically.

In his opinion, Xie Wenxuan's behavior really seemed cowardly.

If anyone dared to touch his cousin like this, I am afraid that this person's life would not be spared until tomorrow.

Xie Wenxuan was very worried. After all, he had lied to begin with. Facing the regent's questions one by one, he felt flustered, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to lie: "Your Majesty, this matter was not a big deal at that time." I haven’t passed the exam, not to mention that if something happens at that time, it will have an impact on my career.”

I have to say, his words are indeed quite perfect.

"So you put up with it?"

"It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years."

"Haha...it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge after ten years! Sir Xie, you can take revenge now because you already have the ability."

Dugu Shu smiled charmingly, as if he was tempting people to commit crimes.

How could Xie Wenxuan not understand what he meant? He couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

Dugu Shu looked at his hesitant look, and the contempt in his eyes became even more intense. He suddenly ordered: "Kill him, and I will see his head on his neck tomorrow!"

Xie Wenxuan, who was a civil servant, was also startled by his words. He raised his eyes and looked at him with wide eyes. Was the regent forcing him to kill someone?

At this time, he was speaking a little less fluently, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I'm afraid this isn't appropriate?"

When he said this, his legs and feet felt weak again, because this was just a cover he made up. Unexpectedly, the regent actually believed that he wanted him to kill people. How could he do it?
Dugu Shu sneered, "What's wrong, Mr. Xie, if you can't even kill this person, then what will happen next in the court, including overt and covert fighting, are you sure you can handle it?" Xie Wenxuan's pupils narrowed when he heard this, Suddenly I felt that what he said made sense. Since I wanted to climb higher, I had to accept this rule.

In this place where killing is done without blood, killing is just the first step.

And the fact that the regent could tell him this showed that he had completely gained the regent's trust.

No matter how much he resisted and resisted, he had no choice but to do it. He lowered his head and said helplessly: "Wei Chen knows."

"Then I will wait for the good news from Mr. Xie!"

……

When Li Yue'er came to find Dugu Shu, she happened to pass by Xie Wenxuan.

However, when Li Yue'er saw Xie Wenxuan, she didn't have a good look in her eyes, because she really looked down on men like Xie Wenxuan who were freeloaders, and she had always had a bad impression of this man in her heart.

Xie Wenxuan was sensitive to the ambiguity in her eyes, but he didn't say anything because he knew Li Yuer's life experience and it was not something he could afford to offend now. He pretended not to see it, but he remembered it fiercely in his heart. Come down, and one day when he becomes famous, he will definitely look good to this woman.

But when Li Yue'er saw him ducking past her, a glint flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly called out to him, "Master Zhuangyuan, please stay!"

Seeing her calling him by name, Xie Wenxuan paused, looked at her and asked, "Miss Li, what's the matter with you?"

"It's nothing wrong, I'm just curious, how did you come out of here?"

Li Yue'er was naturally very suspicious. She really didn't know when this person got so close to the regent.

Shouldn't they be incompatible with each other?
"The prince has summoned his subordinates to discuss some matters in the court."

Li Yue'er's beautiful eyes rolled around, "Oh, really? Does Sister Qin know?"

After all, she knew that Qin Baolan and the Regent had always been at odds with each other, but now Qin Baolan's husband was having contact with the Regent, wasn't she suspicious?
