Every aristocratic family had its own forces, which were organizations that operated in the dark. The Wang Clan's Scarlet Wolf was an assassin organization under the Wang Clan, a group of fearless killers.
This group of people was extremely powerful.
Li Jiancheng had also heard of the Wang Clan's Scarlet Wolf. With a bright smile on his face, he said in a deep voice, "The Wang Clan's Scarlet Wolf wants to enter Chang 'an to deal with Du Qi. I'll take care of all the arrangements. "
He felt that this was a pleasant surprise.
If the Wang Clan's Scarlet Wolf dealt with Du Qi, and both the Wang Clan and Du Qi suffered heavy losses, Li Jiancheng felt that it was good.
If the Wang Clan was defeated, on one hand, the Wang Clan would be weakened. On the other hand, the aristocratic families would most likely act against Du Qi. After all, the aristocratic families were one. Du Qi was equivalent to poking a hornet's nest, which was also what Li Jiancheng was looking forward to.
And if the Wang Clan won and Du Qi was killed by Scarlet Wolf, Li Jiancheng would be happy to see it happen.
No matter what, it was worth it.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Wang Zongzhou didn't care about Li Jiancheng's thoughts. After thanking him, he said, "Goodbye."
Li Jiancheng said, "Xuan Cheng, see the Wang Clan Head off."
Wei Zheng acknowledged and personally saw Wang Zongzhou off. After seeing Wang Zongzhou off, Wei Zheng returned to the study and said, "Your Highness, it seems that the hatred between Du Qi and the Wang Clan is irreconcilable."
"There's no possibility of reconciliation!"
"The Wang Clan has used Scarlet Wolf. I can see how strong Scarlet Wolf is."
"Everyone knows that the Wang Clan has Scarlet Wolf, but in reality, no one knows how strong Scarlet Wolf is. After all, not many people have seen Scarlet Wolf in action in the hundreds of years of the Wang Clan's history. "
"They only know that once Scarlet Wolf appears, there will be blood."
Wei Zheng's face was filled with anticipation.
Li Jiancheng said, "Xuan Cheng, what do you think are the chances of Du Qi escaping with the Wang Clan's Scarlet Wolf?"
Wei Zheng said, "I think it's less than thirty percent. After all, some rumors say that Scarlet Wolf's people are killing machines, unafraid of pain and death. If the Wang Family's Scarlet Wolf wanted to deal with Du Qi, Du Qi's chances of winning were low. It doesn't matter if Du Qi is hiding in the Du Family or if Du Qi is outside. They are both in danger. "
Li Jiancheng said, "If that's the case, let's wait and see."
He was looking forward to the Wang Clan making a move.
While Wei Zheng and Li Jiancheng were chatting, Wang Zongzhou left the Crown Prince's Mansion and returned to his residence in a carriage. But Wang Zongzhou sat in the carriage with a gloomy expression. He had received some information from the Eastern Palace about Du Qi's methods.
He had asked for help from the Eastern Palace, but the Eastern Palace had refused. Moreover, they had repeatedly suffered at the hands of Du Qi.
Wang Zongzhou thought that this was an excuse.
Wang Zongzhou was furious, but the problem was that if the Eastern Palace did not do anything, there was nothing he could do. Therefore, Wang Zongzhou chose to dispatch Scarlet Wolf. He wanted to kill Du Qi and make Du Qi regret.
When Wang Zongzhou returned to his residence, Wang Yue and Liu Zhengxi were already waiting for him.
Wang Yue's face was full of anticipation. He asked impatiently, "Father, how was it?"
Wang Zongzhou said in a low voice, "The Eastern Palace has already told us the details of Du Qi's actions. Du Qi has Du Chuke on the surface and Zhang Jingping in the dark. They worked together to remove all of our Wang Family's people in Chang 'an. "
After a pause, Wang Zongzhou continued, "The only problem is that Du Qi knows all about the Wang Family. This shows that Du Qi's intelligence network is extremely powerful. Du Qi must have people under his command who specialize in gathering information. It's precisely because of this that Du Qi was able to find out. "
Wang Yue said, "What should we do?"
Wang Zongzhou said, "I've already told Li Jiancheng to dispatch Scarlet Wolf to Chang 'an to deal with Du Qi."
Wang Yue was overjoyed. "Father is wise!"
Wang Zongzhou continued, "My original plan was to have Du Qi apologize and lower his head to my Wang Clan. But now, there's no room for negotiation. The Wang Family will not rest until Du Qi is dead. The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, Li Jiancheng, has agreed to coordinate with the Wang Family. As long as Scarlet Wolf arrives, the Eastern Palace will cover its tracks and Scarlet Wolf will be able to sneak in silently. At that time, killing Du Qi will be as easy as flipping one's hand. "
Liu Zhengxi thought for a moment and asked, "Family Head, it's not a problem to dispatch Scarlet Wolf to kill Du Qi. The key is, once Du Qi is killed, how will we face the Emperor's wrath? "
Wang Zongzhou said, "The Five Surnames and Seven Hopes are one. I don't believe that the other aristocratic families will watch as the Wang Family is targeted by the Emperor. There's no need to worry about this. The Emperor won't dare to do anything to the Wang Family in his rage. "
Liu Zhengxi nodded and said no more.
At this moment, Wang Yue was also incomparably excited. Because with Scarlet Wolf dispatched, they would definitely win and Du Qi would die.
Wang Yue continued, "Father, other than Du Qi, there's also everyone in the Du Family. This time, everyone in the Du Family must be killed. After killing Du Qi, we'll seize all of Du Qi's properties. "
Wang Zongzhou shook his head and said, "There's no need to kill Du Qi's entire family. If things get out of hand, even if Li Yuan wants to settle things peacefully, it won't be easy. So, the Du Family won't interfere for the time being. Of course, we'll seize all of the Du Family's properties. Otherwise, where will the Wang Family's face go? "
Wang Yue was somewhat unwilling and said, "Father, the Emperor is nothing. Even if the Emperor is dissatisfied, he still has to be respectful to the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes. If we kill the Du Family's people, what will the Emperor think? At that time, the entire Tang dynasty will be in turmoil. "
Wang Zongzhou frowned as he heard this.
Originally, Wang Zongzhou doted on Wang Yue a lot. After all, he only had this one son. But Wang Yue's response and the wisdom Wang Yue displayed made Wang Zongzhou very disappointed.
He didn't see the big picture.
He lacked breadth of mind.
Wang Zongzhou originally had a bellyful of anger, but now, he heard that his son was so worrisome. Plus, this matter was originally caused by Wang Yue. His anger began to surge. He beckoned and said, "Yue 'er, come here!"
Wang Yue went up and came in front of Wang Zongzhou.
Wang Zongzhou said, "Bend down and lower your head!"
Wang Yue did as he was told. But just as his head reached the top of Wang Zongzhou's head, Wang Zongzhou's palm swung out and slapped Wang Yue's face.
Wang Yue was caught off guard. He staggered and fell to the ground. He covered his burning cheek with an incredulous expression and asked, "Father, what did your son do wrong? Why did you hit me like this?"
Wang Zongzhou snorted and said, "This old man hit you because I hope you can sober up a bit. Our Wang Family is not afraid of Du Qi and dares to go to war with Du Qi. But even if such a battle causes an impact, it's still controllable. "
"Killing one or two people is nothing."
"But massacring the entire family, after the news spreads, where will Li Yuan put his face?"
"At that time, even if Li Yuan wants to smooth things over, public sentiment will surge and officials will be furious. Under the pressure of public opinion, it's also impossible for Li Yuan to settle the matter peacefully. Such a big brain like yours, you can't even think clearly about such a small matter. Can't you think it through? "
Wang Zongzhou berated, "This brain of yours really disappoints this old man."
Wang Yue immediately frowned.
He sensibly did not speak anymore. Because if he continued to speak, he would probably be beaten. After all, Wang Yue was Wang Zongzhou's son at any rate. He was clear about Wang Zongzhou's nature.
To speak while Wang Zongzhou was angry, that was courting death.
Wang Yue said, "Father, please understand. This son will definitely read more and increase my knowledge. This son knows his mistake. "
Wang Zongzhou said, "It's good that you know. Withdraw and reflect on yourself well."
"Yes!"
Wang Yue withdrew in a panic.
Liu Zhengxi also sensibly withdrew. Only Wang Zongzhou was left in the study. At this moment, Wang Zongzhou's expression was solemn. His eyes were filled with killing intent. He was determined to kill Du Qi.
Especially this time, Wang Zongzhou's plan was to use the Eastern Palace to deal with Du Qi.
However, the Eastern Palace stayed out of it.
This time, the Eastern Palace could not be involved in dealing with Du Qi. However, after the assassination of Du Qi, even if the Eastern Palace did not send anyone, the Eastern Palace would provide convenience. This matter could be coerced into the Eastern Palace.
This was also Wang Zongzhou's intention.
The Eastern Palace wanted to make use of Wang Zongzhou's strength. Wang Zongzhou was not stupid. He had already set a trap for the Crown Prince to fall into the trap so that Li Jiancheng could help the Wang Family.
