Chapter 153 Li Huaizhong's Investigation Results
A quarter of an hour later.
".Young Master Wei."
Li Huaizhong stood up silently, the smile on his face no longer there as it was when he first arrived.
He took a deep breath, stared at Wei Changtian and said, "I hope you can keep your promise."
"Of course. I am a trustworthy person."
Wei Changtian stood up and added after a pause: "As long as the eunuch doesn't talk nonsense in front of the emperor, it will be fine."
"snort!"
Li Huaizhong snorted coldly, as if he was unwilling to say another word to Wei Changtian.
But after he took two steps towards the door, he suddenly turned back.
"Master Wei, I will ask you one last time. How did you know about my cultivation disease?"
"If you are willing to tell me, I will tell you the Liu family's conspiracy against the Wei family in return."
"Eunuch Li, I've already said it."
Wei Changtian shook his head: "The secret cannot be revealed, but..."
"But what?"
"But I have a way to help you make up for the shortcomings of Yin Yang Gong. At least it is more reliable than sitting on the dragon throne."
"Um?"
Li Huaizhong's eyes flashed: "What method?! If it really works, I can also tell you about the Liu family!"
"I'm afraid the father-in-law got it wrong."
Wei Changtian smiled and said, "The disease of Yin Yang Gong will not kill you for now, but the Liu family may kill me at any time."
"How about this, father-in-law, first tell me what conspiracy the Liu family has, and after I confirm it is true, I will tell you the method to make up for the Yin-Yang Power, how about this?"
"hehe."
Li Huaizhong sneered, "Master Wei, do you think I'm getting old and confused?"
"I don't know if my father-in-law is confused, but I'm not stupid anyway."
Wei Changtian did not give in at all: "Eunuch, why don't you go back and think about it carefully."
".Good! Young Master Wei is indeed very eloquent!"
Li Huaizhong was shaking with anger and finally decided not to argue with Wei Changtian here. He left the house after saying a few words.
"Sir, please stay. We will meet again later."
"Hahaha, father-in-law, then I won't see you off!"
Wei Changtian laughed twice and watched Li Huaizhong walk through the courtyard and out of the gate. Then he sat back in his chair and took a few deep breaths.
Sweat had already soaked my back, and a gust of wind blew, bringing a chill.
Although he appeared to be very calm and composed, his nerves were actually in a state of high tension.
We must both intimidate Li Huaizhong and prevent him from being completely enraged to the point where he would disregard the consequences.
He had to put forward his own conditions in a firm manner and repeatedly test Li Huaizhong's bottom line.
One wrong step could lead to disastrous consequences.
This feeling, which was like defusing a time bomb, suddenly reminded Wei Changtian of the negotiation expert in his previous life.
Compared with the negotiation experts, he has more bargaining chips, but the "robbers" he faces are also more dangerous.
Don't let this happen a second time.
Wei Changtian picked up the teapot and wanted to drink some tea to calm down, but then he realized that there was no tea left in the pot.
"Yuan'er, change the tea!"
After shouting outside the door, Yuan'er quickly came in carrying a large porcelain pot.
While she was remaking tea, she asked in a low voice, "Sir, was the man who just came a eunuch?"
"Yes, he is the current chief eunuch."
"Grand Chamberlain? Isn't this a very high-ranking official?"
Yuan'er poured a cup of fresh tea and placed it next to Wei Changtian, her face full of curiosity.
"No matter how high the official is, it doesn't matter. Slurp~"
Wei Changtian took a sip of tea and muttered in a "public revenge" manner: "He is still a eunuch."
Although Yuan'er was not as good at reading people's expressions as Qiuyun, she could see that Wei Changtian was depressed at this moment. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh: "What's wrong, young master? Did that eunuch make you unhappy?"
"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."
Wei Changtian rolled his eyes and lowered his voice to warn: "Remember not to tell anyone about Princess Rouan's affairs."
"I know, don't worry, sir."
Yuan'er nodded and wanted to clean up Li Huaizhong's teacup, but when she turned around, she found that the table was empty.
"Eh? Sir, where is the teacup of that eunuch?"
“.”
Wei Changtian recalled the scene where the cup and the water turned into nothingness in an instant, and sighed helplessly: "He thought this teacup was pretty, so I gave it to him."
"Ah? How can anyone like this kind of thing?"
Yuan'er shook her head in confusion, and finally walked out of the room carrying the kettle.
At this time, Wei Changtian was drinking the new tea and thinking about what to do next.
At present, he and Li Huaizhong are at most using each other, and their relationship is very unreliable.
Although Li Huaizhong doesn’t know that Ning Yuke is here with him right now, no one can predict what will happen in the future.
Wei Changtian didn't want to tie his life to a eunuch, but he couldn't think of any good solution for the time being.
Wait a minute. Why do I have to think about it myself? Isn't there Chu Xianping? ! Half an hour later.
In the underground dark room, Chu Xianping, as the fourth person who knew about the situation besides Zhang San and Yuan'er, met Ning Yuke, who had been scolded by the whole world, and also listened to Wei Changtian's selective explanation of the whole story.
It would be a lie to say that he was not surprised, but after being surprised, Chu Xianping only thought for a short time and immediately gave the first suggestion.
"Sir, the first thing we have to do right now is to give an explanation to the court and the emperor."
"Confess?"
Wei Changtian was stunned: "How do I explain this?"
"It's simple. If you really can't give them the princess, then it's fake."
"Fake?"
Wei Changtian was puzzled: "Isn't this too easy to be exposed?"
Chu Xianping remained calm and explained softly, "Sir, of course we can't hide it from a living person, but what about a dead person who can't speak?"
“.”
South of Shuzhou City.
Just as Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping were plotting how to deal with the aftermath, Li Huaizhong was sitting in the spacious study writing a letter.
He came to Shuzhou not just for Wei Changtian, so now is not the time to return to Beijing.
However, the report still needs to be reported.
The letter was not long, only about a hundred words in total, and it roughly stated the "investigation results" on Wei Changtian.
At the end of the letter, Li Huaizhong concluded: "Prince Wei did know that Prince Shun was planning a rebellion, but he had no intention of participating in the rebellion, nor did he know the whereabouts of Princess Rouan."
Put down the pen and put the letter into the special envelope.
Li Huaizhong stood up and walked to the window, his face showing an uncertain expression, as if he was hesitating about something.
He knew very well that once this letter was sent out, it would mean that he would no longer have the chance to change his words, at least regarding the matter of Ning Yuke.
After a while, a whistle suddenly sounded.
“Puff~”
The golden-winged eagle flapped its wings and landed on the windowsill, then soon flew away again, heading far to the north.
It was noon, the sun was dazzling and quite warm.
However, when Li Huaizhong watched the golden dot disappear into the sky, he suddenly shuddered for no reason.
"Master Wei, you hid it really well."
