"Young Master Xu deliberately sent your brother away. I wonder why?" After seeing Xu Tianze being taken away by the servants, Wang Wei looked at Xu Jixue.
No matter how you look at it, Young Master Xu is the best raised. His aura is really becoming more and more like his master when he was young. I didn't expect that even when he is so old, he can still see the appearance of his master when he was young.
"Who does the city lord owe allegiance to, the one in the palace or me?" Xu Jixue did not answer Wang Wei, but stared at Wang Wei sharply.
If this Wang Wei was standing by the side of his father, he would have to be more defensive against Wang Wei. If this Wang Wei was loyal to him, he could still leave Xiaoze a way out.
But no matter which one it is, the most important thing is to see what choice the Lord of Qicheng makes.
"What are you saying, sir? I am horrified." Wang Wei was startled and knelt down in front of Xu Jixue, with cold sweat on his forehead.
He didn't expect that Xu Jixue would give him such a big problem as soon as he came, making him feel very embarrassed.
You know, he has been following His Majesty since the current His Majesty was still a prince. Later, in order to show his loyalty, he voluntarily came to Qicheng to plan everything.
Finally, I became the Lord of Qi City so that if Your Majesty were defeated one day, you would have a way out.
In the end, it evolved into a plan to protect Xu Jixue. When the time was right, he would secretly go to the capital to protect Xu Jixue and then make plans.
It can be said that his loyalty to the current Majesty is evident to all, and under the arrangement of His Majesty, he has devoted all his loyalty to Xu Jixue.
Now that Xu Jixue asked him about his loyalty, he made him the male leader. If it was easier to deal with him than a person, then immediately this person was His Majesty, and Wang Wei didn't know how to choose.
Sensing his hesitation, Xu Jixue's eyes showed murderous intent. He could only grit his teeth and kowtow to Xu Jixue: "Since I am your Highness's man, naturally my loyalty is only to your Highness."
Xu Jixue heard the answer he wanted and nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that the Lord of Qicheng in front of him was not a blindly loyal person. This was better than asking someone else for help.
"Since you are loyal to me, I want you to promise me one thing today, and you must do it no matter what." The mighty aura that had just disappeared from Xu Jixue burst out again.
Not only was it stronger than the last time, it even seemed as if he would get rid of Wang Wei if Wang Wei didn't agree.
"Your Highness, please speak." Wang Wei felt helpless, but finally agreed reluctantly.
After all, he has already expressed his attitude to the prince hiding in the dark, and there is no possibility of changing it now. If he really refuses, his life may really come to an end.
Besides, Wang Wei also has his own ambitions. He gained countless benefits by following His Majesty last time. This time, if he follows the prince favored by His Majesty, then at least his life and that of his son will be safe.
Xu Jixue was very satisfied with Wang Wei's ability to understand the current situation. He smiled, pulled Wang Wei up and began to tell Wang Wei what he wanted Wang Wei to do.
During this period, Wang Wei's expression kept changing, and in the end his back was already wet with sweat. He looked at Xu Jixue in horror, his face full of disbelief.
"Your Highness really wants to do this?"
"Why not? After all, I owe him this. How can he, with his straightforward and lively personality, be destroyed by layers of calculations?"
"Sir Wang, Jixue doesn't have much to rely on. Now I can only ask Sir Wang to help Jixue once." Xu Jixue said as he saluted Wang Wei sincerely.
This time, Xu Jixue held Wang Wei down tightly, forcing Wang Wei to accept his salute.
Wang Wei felt that this was a bit absurd. In order to ensure that the prince in front of him could take the throne, the current emperor had directly calculated against all his ministers and other relatives and children. In the end, he would only be infamous for eternity.
But the prince in front of him was unwilling to say anything and wanted to throw the most important piece in all the plans out of the game.
This is no different from overturning the entire chessboard, and when the prince was about to overturn the chessboard, he directly assisted from behind.
"Your Highness, do you know that Young Master Xu might not appreciate it at that time, and it might even have reached a point where it is irreversible?" Wang Wei looked at Xu Jixue again, trying to persuade him.
"If you don't appreciate it, then don't appreciate it. Whether you hate him or resent him, he has never done anything wrong. It's always me, as the eldest brother, who has let him down."
"I never did this to ask for his forgiveness, but just to make myself feel a little better."
Xu Jixue had a carefree smile on his face, but the red in the corner of his eyes ultimately revealed the turbulent heart of its owner.
"Father, father, Master Xu is here."
The distant voice kept pulling, pulling Wang Wei back directly. The first sentence he shouted when he opened his eyes was: "Your Highness——"
As soon as these two words came out, the whole room fell silent. Wang Chuannuo slowly turned his head to look at Xu Tianze in disbelief. He felt that his blank mind was a little confused.
Although there have always been rumors that Xu Tianze is not Xu Li's son, nor Song Zhenjiang's son, but Emperor Gan's son and so on.
But he always scoffed at it. If Xu Tianze was really the son of Emperor Gan, then Xu Tianze would not have been so embarrassed when the Xu family was massacred.
Naturally, he would not get into a fight with Song Zhenjiang that could not be resolved, or even kill Song Zhenjiang directly in the end.
But he knew his father well. If his father was not sure, he would not directly call Xu Tianze "Your Highness". That could only mean that Xu Tianze was really the prince.
Xu Tianze snorted disdainfully. He certainly did not miss Wang Chuannuo's expression, but he didn't care. After all, he was just a scapegoat, and the real prince was someone else.
"The old city lord is probably really not doing well. Xu Jixue and Xu Tianze are not the same person. Is he trying to get some reputation by admitting his mistake like this?"
After Wang Wei calmed down, he realized that he had subconsciously shouted the wrong thing. He looked at Xu Tianze with his cloudy eyes.
The young man who used to love wearing red clothes and was passionate and flamboyant, now had a sickly pale face, and the purple clothes made people feel suffocated for no reason.
The most obvious thing is the indifferent eyes and the cold and sarcastic look at the corners of his mouth.
"Young Master Xu has really changed. It's my fault that I recognized the wrong person due to my poor eyesight." Wang Wei sighed, his tone full of emotion.
"The old city lord doesn't need to care about what I become. After all, you can tell from his expression. When we first met, he knew what my final outcome would be." Xu Tianze retorted directly.
He didn't expect that Wang Wei also knew the secret of that year, and it seemed that he was a supporter of the original plan. He just didn't know how many old guys like Wang Wei there were, and whether there were enough of them for him to kill.
