"Then what else can I do?" Jun Yannuo growled, somewhat out of control. "Wait and let Lan Linxue deceive me both emotionally and physically?"
The last sentence hit Hu Feifan where it hurt, and his cheek twitched involuntarily.
"There must be another way! You absolutely mustn't act impulsively!"
As he spoke, Hu Feifan sat down at the table, his face filled with anger and panic.
Seeing that the time was right, Jun Yannuo sat up straight and slowly said, "Actually, there are other ways!"
"Oh? Is there any other way?" Hu Feifan looked at Jun Yannuo anxiously.
“There are some things that we can actually do perfectly. However, we might need Fifth Master’s help to do this.”
Hu Feifan immediately frowned. "What method? Tell me!"
Jun Yan Nuo immediately leaned close to Hu Feifan and whispered, "There's actually a good opportunity right now. We can get rid of Lan Linxue and Lan Jiayuan at the same time! As long as we make it look like they're plotting to assassinate each other, that'll be enough. You know, Lan Jiayuan hates Lan Linxue to the core, and the matter of his severed hand has left him with a deep grudge. If we send someone disguised as Lan Jiayuan to assassinate Lan Linxue, no one will suspect a thing! And once something happens to Lan Linxue, we can use that opportunity to kill Lan Jiayuan. Anyway, at this point, even if Lan Jiayuan is dead, Fifth Master can just pin it on him for suicide! If things are exposed, suicide is a common occurrence to avoid implicating the entire family! So, Fifth Master still needs to handle this matter!"
Hu Feifan was stunned by the plan, but after a quick thought, he held up a finger to Jun Yannuo: "Kill two birds with one stone?"
"Yes! Kill two birds with one stone! Clean and efficient! You know, if we let Lan Jiayuan return to the capital, we'll lose this best opportunity! So, rather than let Kou'er get stuck in this mess, we should act now and end it all!"
Hu Feifan thought about it again and realized that this method was indeed a good plan.
However, there seems to be a loophole in it.
“If Lan Linxue is assassinated, the guards around her will definitely be very sensitive! You know, Lan Jiayuan is still in Lan Linxue's hands, so it will be very difficult for our people to get close! We absolutely cannot be involved in this. If it's a plot to assassinate, it won't seem real! So, finding someone to kill Lan Jiayuan is a difficult task. It's hard to find a suitable candidate!”
Jun Yannuo seemed to think for a moment, glanced at Hu Feifan, and then suddenly slapped his thigh: "How could we forget someone! Zhao Ling'er!"
Hu Feifan was taken aback. "She's a prisoner, and the assassination attempt is still on our records. How can we use her? Not to mention Lan Linxue, even Lan Jiayuan wouldn't be able to get past this! No way!"
"You're mistaken. Not only will it work, but she'll be the most suitable candidate! She's a death row inmate now, and she'll die sooner or later! But what if Fifth Master agrees to spare her life as long as Lan Jiayuan is eliminated? She'll definitely obey! As for how she gets close to Lan Jiayuan, all Fifth Master needs to do is talk to Lan Linxue and hand her over to Lan Jiayuan. Don't worry, even if Lan Linxue has to do favors, she'll make sure Zhao Ling'er sees Lan Jiayuan. Once Zhao Ling'er sees Lan Jiayuan, with her years of experience dominating the Qinhuai River, she'll naturally make Lan Jiayuan lower his guard! As long as that's the case, there's no fear of Lan Linxue and Lan Jiayuan surviving!"
Hu Feifan's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"But I wonder if Fifth Master will agree to us doing this? Sigh, it's true what they say about brotherhood!"
As he spoke, Jun Yannuo lowered his head again, pretending to be serious.
The bait has been laid out; now it's up to Hu Feifan to take the bait.
Hu Feifan thought for a moment, then suddenly stood up, patted Jun Yannuo on the shoulder and said, "Wait here for me for a while, I'm going out for a bit!"
Jun Yannuo nodded, and Hu Feifan turned and strode out.
Jun Yannuo watched his retreating figure and slowly revealed a cold smile: Hu Feifan, you'll never be able to marry Kou'er in this lifetime! A person like you is only fit to enjoy wealth and glory forever, not to dictate the world!
After a long while, Hu Feifan returned with a solemn expression. Upon seeing Jun Yannuo, he only asked one question: "Fifth Master is asking you, when is the most appropriate time to carry out this?"
Jun Yannuo quickly stood up. "Of course, the sooner the better! This matter can't be delayed any longer. You know, continuing to investigate the Third Prince's matter won't do us any good!"
Hu Feifan nodded. "You think the same way as Fifth Master! Fifth Master said that from now on, Yan Nuo, it's not appropriate for you to show up anymore. Just stay here and wait for the outcome!"
Jun Yannuo was taken aback and quickly asked, "What do you mean?"
Hu Feifan gave a strange smile. "Didn't you say the sooner the better? Fifth Master has already sent people to carry it out! Don't worry, we'll have good results soon!"
Jun Yannuo immediately frowned: "But Kou'er is still with Lan Linxue! And what about Zhao Ling'er..."
Hu Feifan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to Kou'er! Fifth Master's arrangements are measured, and the people below will certainly be measured as well! As for Zhao Ling'er, Fifth Master will take care of that. In short, it's not advisable for you to step forward now, so just stay here and relax!"
As he spoke, Hu Feifan beckoned to the people outside, "Come here and serve the Grand Steward well!"
"yes!"
After saying that, Hu Feifan nodded to Jun Yannuo, "I have something to do, I'll go now! I'll let you know when it's done!"
With that, Hu Feifan walked away without looking back.
Jun Yan Nuo immediately realized that Lan Xiu Yuan had placed him under house arrest to prevent the news from leaking.
However, according to his and Qin Kou'er's plan, they should have acted as early as tonight. They never expected Lan Xiuyuan to strike so swiftly. This created a loophole in Zhao Ling'er's arrangements before they could even finish.
