Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Qiao Sanniang frowned and said, "If that's the case, Mr. Wenshan is in danger."
Wang Xuance, Liu Muzhi and others were also silent.
Wang Xuance sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do about this. Who knew he would do something like this?"
"Can't Han Zhuowu be saved?"
Liu Muzhi asked.
"cannot."
Wang Xuance smiled bitterly and said, "Han Zhuowu is willing to serve us, largely because he is dissatisfied with Liu Zhi."
"Do they have a grudge?"
"If I had to say, there is a little bit."
Wang Xuance smiled strangely and said, "Do you remember the Shaoqing who was used by Cui Wenhao and was eventually abandoned by the Cui family?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they remembered that there was a young official who was used by Cui Wenhao to be the first to take action, but was abandoned on the spot by Cui Cen with just one sentence.
"What is the relationship between that person and Han Zhuowu?"
Liu Muzhi asked.
"friend."
Wang Xuance thought for a moment, nodded, and repeated, "We should be considered friends."
Wang Xuance laughed as he spoke...Han Zhuowu always called others lunatics, but in fact he himself was the lunatic.
He is arrogant and unruly.
Such a person would certainly not be very sociable, and the unfortunate Shaoqing could be considered as a "friend" of his with whom the relationship could be considered just barely acceptable.
"How is that Shaoqing now?"
Kou Zhunren asked.
"Dead."
“Eh…?”
This answer surprised everyone.
"He committed suicide."
Wang Xuance added calmly.
"This... suicide?"
Kou Zhunren frowned slightly and looked at Wang Xuance suspiciously, but he could not see anything. However, he still felt as if something was wrong.
"cough!"
Liu Muzhi coughed lightly and changed the subject, asking, "But, this has nothing to do with Liu Zhi, right?"
“Originally, there was no connection, but the Shaoqing was unwilling to accept being abandoned. Before committing suicide, he asked people everywhere to intercede with Cui Cen, hoping that Cui Cen would help him.
Among them was Liu Zhi, but for some unknown reason, Liu Zhi seemed to be in a bad mood at that time.
Not only did he not help, he also scolded the man.
And not long after, that Shaoqing..."
Wang Xuance made a gesture of hanging himself.
Everyone couldn't help but smile bitterly at this.
"And what about the others?"
Qiao Sanniang asked with a frown.
"I'm afraid it's too late."
This time it was Liu Muzhi who answered.
Compared with Kou Zhunren and Qiao Sanniang herself, he and Wang Xuance behaved similarly. Although they were slightly regretful, they were very calm.
He simply explained calmly, "By the time this message reached us, if he had been able to see Cui Cen, he would have seen it too. The outcome after that was no longer under our control. Even if we were willing to expose our people in the Prime Minister's Mansion, it would probably be too late."
The life experiences of the two have long made them indifferent to such trivial matters.
To accomplish great things, sacrifices are inevitable, and Liu Zhi is not really one of us at the moment.
It can only be said that he is an important target for winning over.
However, after Liu Muzhi thought about it, he said to Li Cunxiao: "Cunxiao, please go there. If he can't leave the prime minister's residence, then forget it.
If he can get out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, bring him back safely. This person is quite important to us."
Seeing the two men discussing such a matter that would decide a person's life or death, and their almost calm reactions, Kou Zhunren felt a little uncomfortable.
But there is nothing we can do.
Li Cunxiao didn't care. He grinned and nodded, then went out carrying his weapon.
The decision has been made, and there is nothing left for everyone to say except to wait patiently.
Fortunately, the waiting time was not long. In less than an incense stick of time, Li Cunxiao returned to Tianxiaju again.
He held his weapon in one hand and dragged a person with the other. It was none other than Liu Zhi, who had just left Tianxiaju.
However, Liu Zhi seemed a little confused at this time. He was dragged by Li Cunxiao and his expression seemed a little numb.
Seeing Wang Xuance and the others, he raised his head and sneered, "You won, the Prime Minister is dead..."
"What?!"
Wang Xuance and the others were shocked when they heard this. "The Prime Minister is dead? Why haven't we received any news?"
Liu Zhi laughed and said sarcastically, "The only one alive is Cui Cen..."
“…”
Wang Xuance, Liu Muzhi and others almost vomited blood.
You're breathing too heavily.
But looking at his expression, he looked as if he had lost his parents, and was simply a walking corpse.
Wang Xuance couldn't help but ask Li Cunxiao, "What's wrong with him? Where did you bring him back?"
Li Cunxiao was also confused and said with his hands spread out, "How would I know what's wrong with him?
The place where I met him was not far from the Prime Minister's Mansion. When I saw him, a group of people had blocked him in a secluded place, and it looked like they were going to kill him.
But this..."
Li Cunxiao pointed at Liu Zhi and said, "He didn't even run away or resist. If I hadn't saved him, he would be dead by now."
Li Cunxiao is a carefree person, but his words shocked everyone.
Wang Xuance laughed and said, "Lord Liu Zhi, didn't you say the Prime Minister was dead? But your Prime Minister doesn't seem to be willing to let you go?"
Liu Zhi shook his head and gave a bitter laugh: "The person who wants to kill me is not Cui Cen. If it was, I would be happy.
