Chapter 216 Preparing for Action



Liu Xun laughed when he heard this: "Master Fang, what are you talking about? Come down first. It's dangerous up there."

Fang Zhengyi jumped down and walked towards Liu Xun, looking directly at him: "Master Liu, please explain how this should end."

Liu Xun asked, "What does Lord Fang think?"

Fang Zhengyi smiled slightly and whispered, "You have to pay more! You have to raise 50,000 taels for me. But we have an agreement beforehand that what happened in the granary cannot be discovered by outsiders. If something unexpected happens, then no matter how much money I have, it will be useless."

"I don't know... How will Lord Liu deal with the counterfeit in the granary?"

When Liu Xun heard Fang Zhengyi wanted to increase the amount to 50,000 taels, a fierce light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"Oh, fifty thousand taels... Lord Fang is really asking for too much, but I agree!"

"As for the moldy rice in the granary, you don't have to worry. Today, you and I are truly frank with each other, so I will tell you everything."

As he spoke, Liu Xun looked around and leaned close to Fang Zheng's ear.

"The day after tomorrow, there will be a fight between the Freedom Church and the Iron Clothes Church outside the city, with disaster victims participating. The soldiers will come out to wipe out the rebels, and the Iron Clothes Church rebels will take the opportunity to set fire to the warehouse..."

"At that time... Lord Fang can lead the troops to wipe out the remaining bandits. It will be a great achievement! This government will report the truth!"

"With your relationship with the Crown Prince, it won't be a problem for you to be transferred back to the capital!"

"When the time comes, Lord Fang will return to the capital with 50,000 taels of silver and be able to be with the Crown Prince again. Wouldn't that be like a fish in water? What do you think?"

Fang Zhengyi frowned, "How can you control the fight between the two sects? And if a large-scale fight really breaks out and the general of Jianjiang gets involved, how will it end?"

"Could it be that the general is one of ours?"

Liu Xun smiled bitterly: "You have been in the capital for so long, don't you even understand this? Your Majesty may not care about anything else in the world, but the only thing you will never let go of is the military power!"

"Your Majesty's ability is beyond your imagination. The generals of various places are under your firm control. It can be said that they are all your confidants who have followed your Majesty through mountains of corpses and seas of blood."

"If the general knows about the granary, we will be the first to lose our heads!"

"But you don't have to worry. We'll prepare in advance and be much faster than them!"

"After the granary is burned, we can say whatever we want!"

"As for those sects, I have my own arrangements. You don't have to worry about it."

Hearing him say this, Fang Zhengyi felt relieved.

In this way, there will be no worries when taking action on my own. If there is a conflict with those generals, it will be really troublesome.

We all have talented people here, and we can't afford to fail over something like this.

Then Fang Zhengyi continued to ask: "Master Liu, is it just the two of us who are involved in this important matter..."

"Of course not!" Liu Xun's smile became brighter.

"Now that you are one of us, tomorrow the government will call all those involved in this incident to Yongqing Building not far from the government office to discuss important matters. Then we will assign some people to you to go out of the city to suppress the bandits and make meritorious deeds! This way... you should be relieved!"

Fang Zheng suddenly became excited and stepped forward to hold Liu Xun's hand.

"My parents gave me life, but Lord Liu knows me best!"

Oh shit!

Liu Xun looked at his hands that were being held, and suddenly shuddered all over, then he quickly pulled his hands free.

He laughed awkwardly: "Master Fang, do you want to take another look?"

"No! I won't watch it anymore! I'll have to trouble Master Liu to accompany me today, so let's go back first."

...........

That night, Liu Xun was in the study, with Wei Shan standing beside him with a serious expression.

Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Master...did you really give all that silver directly to Fang Zhengyi? That's fifty thousand taels!"

Liu Xun sneered. The candlelight flickered, shining on his face, making the atmosphere seem a little mysterious.

"Oh, give it to him. How long can he keep the silver?"

"He is just a prince's male favorite. He wants too much and knows too much. No matter what, he cannot be allowed to return to the capital."

"Although he is a mean person, he is also quite thoughtful. I am afraid that he might become worried and have other ideas. I will take him to meet my own people tomorrow."

"The day after tomorrow, you will stay with him and kill him in the chaos. Then there will be no evidence and the silver will still be ours."

"Master is wise..."

...........

Inside the Chenghu pleasure boat, Fang Zhengyi was telling everyone what happened during the day, and he was in a very happy mood.

He said with a smug look on his face: "Listen carefully, everyone. Tomorrow Bai Rui will lead the way and bring a group of good men to occupy Yongqing Building for me. Keep quiet."

"Zhang Biao, Zhou Tie and others are all going!"

"When I smash the cup as a signal, just barge into the house and tie up those bastards!"

"Liu Xun, the leader, break all his limbs! Don't give him any chance to escape! If anyone dares to flutter, break their legs. No need to discuss. This operation must succeed, not fail. Do you understand?"

“I understand!!”
