"I finally looked forward to two good opportunities to gain great achievements, namely the rebellion of Songde Tianshu of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the rebellion of Li Zhengyan, but they all came to nothing.

"Without the cauldron sword of the sixth brother, even if the Great Zhou Songde Tianshu was built, it would be greatly reduced if presented to His Majesty. There is nothing more symbolic than the cauldron sword... His Majesty has long been tired of seeing some ordinary auspiciousness.

"

Wang Lengran did not dare to say a word and lowered his head to listen silently.

Wei Shaoqi narrowed his eyes and said in a hateful tone:

"The thing about the General Manager of Jiangzhou Road Marching Army is that my father was implicated by Zhu Lingxu and his son. Not only did it leave a bad impression on His Majesty as someone who doesn't know people, but he actually lost a huge amount of military exploits and benefited the Qin family in vain.

"Hey, if that wasn't the case, why would I come here to serve this fat lady with such humility?

"Tell me, how come we, the Wei family, have been giving dowries to others in the past two years? What went wrong? Is there someone secretly working against me to ruin my Wei family's luck?"

Hearing Wei Shaoqi's complaints and names, Wang Lengran pretended not to hear and lowered his head even more.

"Now my father can only find a way to compromise. Let me bring Qiniang to Xunyang City to try to get married with the Qin family first, and then assist Rong Zhen and Lin Cheng to investigate the case and clarify the misunderstanding between Zhu Lingxu and his son...

…”

Wei Shaoqi turned his head, stared at Wang Lengran, and said word by word:

"So, this time, my father has given me the full authority to order my son to come to Jiangzhou for these three things!

"Reversal of the case and marriage... are the top priority of this trip. Any manpower and material resources needed can be reported and mobilized... But if it fails, not only will it be difficult for me to do business, Wang Lengran, you will also be unable to live without it."

"Yes, Third Young Master, I understand your humble position."

Wang Lengran nodded vigorously. After a while, he reacted, frowned, lowered his head, and raised two fingers.

"Wait a minute, Third Young Master, are you talking about three things? Aren't they two things? Your marriage to the Qin family, and the reversal of the case of urging Zhu Lingxu and his son to rebel. Aren't these two things? Isn't it because of the humble position?

What?"

he asked curiously.

Wei Shaoqi twitched the corners of his mouth and looked away.

Seeing that the third young master Wei in front of him had no intention of speaking, Wang Lengran didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Immediately, he remembered something again and asked in a low voice:

"Third Young Master, regarding the matter of overturning the case, Rong Zhen seems to have a good relationship with Ouyang Lianghan. Last time we discussed the matter, we brought him here unnecessarily. Isn't it unsafe to place the heavy responsibility of overturning the case on her? By the way,

And that Lin Cheng..."

Wei Shaoqi glanced at Wang Lengran:

"In the past, I might have been worried, but now...

"It can be seen that Rong Zhen now hates the owner of Die Lianhua who pretended to be the sixth brother, and also caused Si Tianjian to lose his troops. Oh, both public and private, Rong Zhen and Lin Cheng may want to catch him more than us.

This thief.

"Don't worry. Besides, I know Rong Zhen's temperament better than you. We don't need to worry about the investigation. They will definitely do their best.

"Besides..."

Wei Shaoqi glanced at Wang Lengran, and his tone was somewhat meaningful:

"This time my father presided over the construction of the Sifang Buddha. The one in Guizhou has been stranded, so let's not count it. Now, there are only three places and three peaches left in Jiangzhou, Yangzhou and Taiyuan.

"Wang Lengran, do you think that with Rong Zhen's arrogant temper, she was specially sent to Jiangzhou, stationed there, and able to be responsible for supervising the construction of the Donglin Giant Buddha...she could unquestionably pick three of the peaches?

A share of..."

"I don't know my humble... humble position. Please tell me clearly, Third Young Master."

Wei Shaoqi's tone was somewhat emotional: "Did you know that even Lin Cheng, who is Xia Guan Lingtai Lang, is envious of such a good opportunity and good job to come to Jiangzhou to monitor the Giant Buddha...

"Your Majesty is right to favor Rong Zhen. He sent her to Jiangzhou early, but Miaozhen came earlier than her. Now, shouldn't Miaozhen just get out of the way and go to the front line to supervise the battle? Give up his position.

Left to Rong Zhen.

"This is not luck. Without the nod from her father, who is the governor-general of Tianshu, Rong Zhen would not be able to stay in Jiangzhou for a long time and guard this good opportunity of Donglin Giant Buddha. After all, among the Qi practitioners inside and outside the palace,

, I don’t know how many people are staring at these three giant Buddhas that are about to be completed... Once the giant Buddhas are completed, the Yin-Yang family Qi practitioners who will be responsible for supervising the construction... ha."

Wang Lengran's eyes widened slightly:

"I see. So, this female historian actually owes the prince a favor..."

Wei Shaoqi's eyes were full of meaning and he asked:

"Ow? Haha, with her temperament, she definitely doesn't appreciate it... But... there are some things in this world that you can't control. Just like my father, knowing that she doesn't appreciate it, he has to nod.

"

Having said this, Wei Shaoqi shook his head and said no more.

Wang Lengran looked curious, but it was inconvenient to ask again.

Wei Shaoqi lowered his head and looked at his palm, which was still covered with blood after being bandaged, and his expression calmed down.

Wang Lengran was silent for a while and asked again in a low voice:

"Third Young Master, despite your humble position, you are still curious. When Li Li took people to Dagushan, what happened on the mountain that night? No one came back?"

Wei Shaoqi lowered his eyes;

"Actually, it doesn't mean that none of them came back, only one came back."

"Is there anyone alive? Who is it?"

"It was the monk who was born in the Xuankong Temple. Our people only discovered it after the fact, but there is no difference between him and his death. Now he is a prisoner in the Xuankong Temple, practicing some bullshit Buddhism, and has become mute and deaf.

"Our royal palace came out to find someone, but Xuankong Temple refused to let him go. He said that he was any monk who practiced closed-mouth meditation. The ancestor hall protected him from being disturbed throughout his life. My father's client came to the temple to see him, but the bald donkey didn't know anything about it.

…These bald donkeys really deserve to die!”

Wang Lengran was surprised: "Why is this? What has he experienced?"

Wei Shaoqi shook his head, and then said with a serious face:

"The owner of Dielianhua is definitely not simple. Not only does he have the tripod sword and the Taoist lineage of the person holding the sword, but he may also have some other means to confuse people and make people stunned..."

Wang Lengran nodded slowly, digested it for a while, then frowned and asked:

"Third Young Master, when we returned to Yunshui Pavilion last time, Prince Xunyang's incident of troubling Princess Anhui was just over and done with? Let's not teach him a lesson..."

"Shut up, don't mention it again!" Wei Shaoqi scolded.

"Yes Yes!"

Wei Shaoqi was silent for a while and said unhappily;

"My father promised Wang Shuliang that he would leave Prince Xunyang's palace alone and discuss it later, so let's not touch them for the time being and let them survive for a while."

"Sir, why does His Highness Prince Liang want to speak to Prince Xunyang's Mansion?"

Wang Lengran shut up immediately when he was halfway through speaking.

Shaoqing asked cautiously:

"Third Young Master, is the rumor true? His Highness King Wei and His Highness Prince Liang have differences..."

Wei Shaoqi's eyes were stern: "This is not your business, just do what you should do."

Wang Lengran lowered his head and said yes.

It is rumored that because of the Liwei dispute, His Highness the King of Wei and His Highness the King of Liang seem to have had a disagreement recently. Now the Wei family is vaguely divided into two factions. Although the differences are not serious, it still makes many Wei family centrists wait and see...

Wei Shaoqi warned again:

"Don't worry about Prince Xunyang's palace for now. If it's a dead end like the last time, don't worry about it for the time being."

"Yes, sir."

Wang Lengran responded.

Wei Shaoqi took another look at Wang Lengran, who was honest and didn't ask any questions.

He frowned slightly.

Unexpectedly, one day, he, the Wei family, would show mercy to King Xunyang's lineage and protect them.

This is actually what His Royal Highness Wang Shuliang meant.

At present, the opinions within the Wei family are not unified enough. My father wants to be the emperor's heir. His Royal Highness, Prince Liang, may understand His Majesty's thoughts better.

Moreover, in the Liwei dispute, the Wei family won, which must have been because the elder brother, King Wei, became the crown prince of the Zhou Dynasty.

Therefore, King Liang is more conservative and will calculate in advance the options in case of failure...

Thinking of this, Wei Shaoqi clenched his fists, and the cloth covering the wound on his palm began to ooze out a larger area of ​​blood.

He felt a little irritable for no reason.

It's all to blame for the loss of Wei Shaoxuan and the tripod sword, as well as the unjust case of Zhu Lingxu and his son! Not only did the plan of the Wei Palace fail, but it also hit the father's prestige. It was a bit difficult to suppress the people below. King Wang Shuliang also became somewhat conservative.

thought.

After a while, Wei Shaoqi raised his head and said:
To be continued...
