Two days later, Yun Li received a reply from Yun Zheng.
Looking at the content of the reply, Yun Li could hardly believe his eyes. He rubbed his eyes vigorously several times, fearing that he was dazzled.
Promised!
That bastard Lao Liu actually agreed!
Lao Liu used 1.2 million taels of silver and Yang Huizhou to exchange for Cui Wenjing's family of thirteen.
At the end of the letter, Yun Zheng threatened him that if anything happened to Cui Wenjing's family, don't blame him for being rude.
"Ha ha……"
After making sure that he was not seeing things, Yun Li couldn't help but burst into laughter.
One million and two hundred thousand taels of silver was far from enough compared to the silver that Yun Zheng had cheated him of.
But these one million and two hundred thousand taels of silver have extraordinary significance to him.
...
...
This was the first time he got money out of Yun Zheng!
Moreover, the first time was 1.2 million taels!
How could he not be happy about this?
Cui Wenjing is too tight-lipped.
Instead of killing Cui Wenjing in anger to vent his anger, it would be better to use him to extort some money from Lao Liu.
Unexpectedly, it actually succeeded!
Once there is a first time, there will naturally be a second time!
From now on, I will definitely make that bastard spit out all the money he cheated from me!
There must be some followers of that bastard Lao Liu in the court!
It doesn’t matter if Cui Wenjing doesn’t tell you, just dig it out slowly yourself!
As long as they are dug out, those people will be a lot of money and can be used as tools for revenge!
Excited, Yun Li immediately took Yun Zheng's reply to Emperor Wen and showed him the letter.
Looking at the contents of the letter, Emperor Wen was not surprised at all.
"Now is not the time to be happy!"
Emperor Wen looked up at Yun Li and said, "This rebellious son is full of tricks. Be careful that he is just pretending to agree. As long as you send people to escort Cui Wenjing and his family, he will send people to kill them and silence them!"
"Thank you for your reminder, Father. I understand!"
Yun Li looked at Emperor Wen with gratitude and said, "I will definitely order the people escorting Cui Wenjing and the others to be careful..."
"you……"
Upon hearing Yun Li's words, Emperor Wen almost fainted from anger, and immediately asked angrily: "Do you know how many people Lao Liu has in the imperial city? Do you know who are Lao Liu's people? Can you guarantee that as long as the escort personnel are careful, Cui Wenjing will not be assassinated by Lao Liu's people during the escort?"
"this……"
Yun Li paused for a moment and was speechless for a moment.
yes!
He had no idea how many people Lao Liu had planted in the imperial city!
Seeing that Yun Li still didn't understand, Emperor Wen was immediately furious, "Can't you find a death row prisoner from the prison to pretend to be Cui Wenjing?"
Listening to Emperor Wen's words, Yun Li's eyes suddenly lit up.
yes!
I can just find a death row inmate to pretend to be Cui Wenjing!
Cui Wenjing had suffered all kinds of torture and was already unkempt. All they had to do was find someone with a similar face and body shape and dress him up a little. Unless you looked closely, it would be impossible to tell that it was not Cui Wenjing!
Wonderful!
Why didn’t I think of this?
Emperor Wen glanced at Yun Li and said, "Think about it again. If you were Cui Wenjing, and you didn't give out your accomplices despite being tortured, but Lao Liu still wanted to send someone to assassinate you, what would you choose?"
"I will definitely tell you everything I know!"
Yun Li suddenly realized and looked at Emperor Wen with admiration.
Kill three birds with one stone!
Father's methods are truly amazing!
At the same time, the women in the deep palace also got the news that Yun Zheng was going to pay more than one million taels of silver to redeem Cui Wenjing's entire family.
At this moment, a trace of panic finally flashed across the woman's face, but she quickly regained her composure.
"Master, what should we do now?"
The old maid looked at the woman in front of her with a worried look on her face.
The woman was silent.
what to do?
She also wanted to find someone to ask, what should she do now?
But right now, no one except herself can answer her question.
She also didn't expect that after planning for so long and taking every step cautiously, everything would be ruined by Yun Li.
well!
The woman sighed deeply in her heart, but a cold light suddenly flashed in her eyes: "We must not let Cui Wenjing live and fall into Yun Zheng's hands! Without any worries, Cui Wenjing will definitely betray us!"
She knew Cui Wenjing's concerns.
Cui Wenjing was now concerned about the lives of his entire family, so he didn't dare tell anyone about it.
Once Cui Wenjing's entire family falls into Yun Zheng's hands, Cui Wenjing will definitely confess!
Compared to Yun Li, she was more afraid of Yun Zheng who had a large number of troops!
If Yun Zheng knew that he was the one behind all this, he would surely die!
Not only Yun Zheng, but Yun Li and even the Emperor will not let her go!
Listening to the woman's words, the old maid looked even more worried: "But if we kill him to silence him, wouldn't it be the same as telling Yun Li and the ministers that Cui Wenjing is not Yun Zheng's man?"
"Then push it towards Yun Zheng!"
The woman said coldly: "We can create a false impression and make people think that Yun Zheng does not want to use the money to redeem the person, but only wants to kill Cui Wenjing who knows too many secrets, so as to eliminate the trouble forever!"
"this……"
The old maid was still worried, "Will this work? There are many smart people in this court."
"It's okay even if it's not possible!"
The woman's face was filled with hostility, completely different from her usual gentle and virtuous appearance. "Even if everyone knows that Cui Wenjing is not Yun Zheng's, Yun Zheng must not know my identity!"
Even if everyone knew that Cui Wenjing was not Yun Zheng's man, they would not necessarily suspect him.
After all, the various forces in the court are complicated.
Even if Yun Li has become regent, the fight for the throne will not stop!
There are too many people who are worthy of suspicion. As long as you are not sure that it is you, everything will be easy!
Listening to the woman's words, the old maid couldn't help but nod slightly.
Yes!
There are too many people to be suspicious of!
As long as no one can be sure that they are the ones manipulating everything behind the scenes, they have a chance of survival!
But if Cui Wenjing falls into Yun Zheng's hands, they will really have no chance!
At this moment, I can’t care about so many things!
After figuring this out, the old maid asked again: "Master, where do you think it is appropriate to start?"
The woman pondered for a moment, then replied, "In order to avoid any further complications, it would be best to wait until they leave the palace before taking action..."
Time waits for no one!
The longer Cui Wenjing lives, the greater the threat she will pose.
If the guards of the eunuchs in the Prince's Mansion had not been so strict, she would have even wanted to send people to rush into the Prince's Mansion to kill Cui Wenjing.
In this world, only the dead will not reveal secrets!
Most people would never have thought that they would dare to take action in the imperial city.
When we are in the imperial city, that is also when the escort personnel are most lax!
The old maid thought for a moment and said immediately, "I will go and notify our people to take action!"
"No!"
The woman raised her hand to stop the old maid, "First determine how many people Yun Li will send to escort Cui Wenjing and others, and their specific departure time! Once that's determined, make a detailed plan and then notify people to take action!"
Foolproof!
This matter must be ensured to be foolproof!
She can't afford to lose!
Moreover, Cui Wenjing must be killed at the first attempt!
Once the escorting people are on guard, it will be difficult for them to attack and kill Cui Wenjing!
If Cui Wenjing guessed that it was me who sent people to kill him, he would definitely betray me if he didn't die!
We must be extremely cautious about this matter!
We need to make a detailed plan to kill Cui Wenjing in one fell swoop at the lowest cost!
