"If grandfather is still worried, I can send someone to secretly hire some people in the marketplace and have them provide false information about Xinglang to the magistrate. I guarantee that the people in the Provincial Governor's Office will be so busy that they won't have time to care about anything else!"
In the wing room in the backyard of the second branch of the Wang family, Wang Xinyuan saw that Wang Kui was still worried, so he suggested.
When Wang Kui heard this, he shook his head and refused without thinking, "No! At this time, we can't cause any more trouble! The more we do, the more likely it is that we will be discovered by the magistrate. You'd better behave yourself. Without my permission, you're not allowed to act on your own! "
Wang Kui was actually very afraid that Wang Xinyuan would do something like he did in the afternoon and cause trouble without saying a word. This would put him in a very passive position. Unlike Wang Xinyuan's radicalism, Wang Kui was quite cautious and conservative. Before he had absolute confidence, he would not expose himself in front of others.
Before Wang Xinyuan came, Wang Li had already been here. Furthermore, he had been severely reprimanded by Wang Yu. He had also warned Wang Li not to cooperate with Wang Xinyuan's unauthorized actions. In this way, he had also taken away Wang Xinyuan's "military power" in disguise!
"Yes! Grandson will follow grandfather's instructions! "
Wang Xinyuan knew that it was not the right time to fall out with Wang Kui, so he pretended to be obedient and cupped his hands.
"But grandfather, please take care of Xinglang's family and ensure that his family won't report to the magistrate!"
Suddenly, Wang Xinyuan's eyes flashed. He stood up and looked at Wang Kui.
"Hmph! I have my own plans. You don't have to worry about this matter! You can go back first! "
Wang Kui frowned and waved his hand.
"… Grandson will take his leave!"
Wang Xinyuan seemed to want to say something, but he hesitated for a moment and did not say anything. He cupped his hands and left.
Wang Kui, who was in the room, looked at Wang Xinyuan's back as he left. He was both angry and helpless. Now, seeing that the government was about to investigate him step by step, he really began to regret listening to Wang Xinyuan's bewitchment. Wasn't it good to be the second elder of the Wang family who lived in luxury every day and didn't have to worry about food and drink? Why did he have to take the risk of risking his life?
It's all because of human greed!
Wang Kui sighed in his heart for a while before shouting outside, "Wang Li!"
Creak ~!
As soon as Wang Kui finished speaking, the door was pushed open from the outside. Wang Li walked in and cupped his fists. "Your subordinate is here!"
Wang Kai's face was cold as he said in a deep voice, "After dark, you go to the Triumph House and quietly get rid of that old man. Do it cleanly. This old man doesn't want anyone to notice! Do you understand? "
Wang Li's body trembled as a trace of surprise flashed across his face. However, he quickly returned to normal and cupped his fists. "I understand!"
Then, seeing that Wang Kui had no other instructions, he cupped his hands and left.
The room was silent for a long time before Wang Kui muttered to himself, "Star Wolf, don't blame me. It's not that I'm heartless, but only the dead can keep secrets!"
…
"Master, are you looking for me?"
Wang Chengwu knocked on the door of the study in the backyard of the Wang Family's main house. He pushed the door open and entered. He bowed and cupped his fists towards Wang Yu, who was sitting behind the desk.
"Yes!"
Wang Yu put down the reward notice in his hand, looked up at Wang Chengwu, and asked,
"Chengwu, is there any movement from the second branch?"
Previously, when he suspected that Wang Li and Wang Kui were likely to be related to the fire in the south of the city at noon, Wang Yu sent Wang Chengwu to keep a close eye on the second branch and monitor their every move. Now that the portrait of Star Wolf and the reward notice were all in the hands of the Wang Family's servants, Wang Yu guessed that Wang Kui would definitely take action after seeing the reward notice, so he called Wang Chengwu over to ask about it.
Hearing this, Wang Chengwu thought for a moment, then cupped his fists and said, "Reporting to the Patriarch, according to the informant I placed in the second branch, the Second Elder didn't do anything after seeing the reward notice, but he asked Wang Xinyuan to go to the side room in the backyard. After a while, Wang Xinyuan left again. As for what the two of them said in the side room, because there were guards outside the room, our people didn't dare to get too close, so we didn't hear clearly!"
Wang Yu's eyes flashed, and after a moment of thought, he said, "Continue to monitor the Second Elder, Wang Xinyuan, and Wang Li closely. If there are any abnormal movements, immediately report to me! If they leave the residence, you must send someone to follow them closely, but be careful not to be discovered by them! "
Wang Chengwu bowed and said, "This subordinate understands! Master, don't worry. If necessary, this subordinate will personally follow them! "
Speaking of which, no matter what, Wang Li was still a Zongshi realm expert. If he wanted to follow him silently, the person following him would have to be at least stronger than him. Among all the secret guards of the Wang family, only Wang Chengwu was qualified to do so!
Wang Yu nodded slightly and said, "Yes! You may go! "
Wang Chengwu replied, cupped his fists, and left.
Not long after Wang Chengwu left, the door of the study was pushed open from the outside again. Wang Yu looked up and saw that it was Wang Bing, and behind Wang Bing was Princess Tong 'an!
"Father! Madam! Why are you here ~? "
Wang Yu hurriedly stood up when he saw the person who had arrived and greeted him.
After the two entered, Princess Tong 'an turned and closed the door. At this moment, Wang Bing took out a piece of paper from his bosom. It was the bounty notice that everyone in the Wang Family had passed around. He looked at Wang Yu and asked solemnly, "Yu' er, who is this person? Why are you mobilizing everyone in the Wang Family to find him? Did something happen in Taiyuan City again ~? "
In truth, Wang Yu had not mentioned to Wang Bing or Princess Tong 'an that an assassin had attacked an Imperial Army convoy and been captured alive at noon today. The main reason was that he had rashly spied on Wang Kui without any evidence. This matter did not conform to the Wang Family's rules, and Wang Bing might not agree to it. Thus, Wang Yu had decided to' act first and report later '!
But unexpectedly, Wang Bing's political sense was far sharper than Wang Yu had imagined. With just a single bounty notice, he had sensed that something was wrong. It had to be said that the older the ginger, the spicier it was!
