"What do you know? If I could really convince that master, would I have to take such a risk? Who doesn't want to climb up safely and securely? You're also a loser!"
The most anxious thing now is this matter. He had not negotiated the terms with Sheng Mingyu at that time, but he had already tried to contact the master, but got nothing and was scolded.
He was also very angry, and was really being bullied from both sides.
The lawyer's wife hid aside timidly, not daring to say anything. Her master's temper has become increasingly bad recently.
Marquis Changping returned to his room and also got very angry.
He felt that his logic was correct. From what he had heard from the master, it was clear that Sheng Mingyu was the one who was wrong.
"Did I come all the way to Anyuan County just to be manipulated by them? After all, I am the elder. To be so disrespectful is truly too much!"
He absolutely could not sit and wait for death. The most important thing was that the people sent by Du Changming would be arriving soon.
If he failed to accomplish anything, Du Changming would probably be even angrier.
Marquis Changping was feeling uneasy.
He was in a dilemma when he came here this time. He originally received the imperial edict from His Majesty to come and help Sheng Mingyu, but before leaving, Du Changming assigned him another task.
If Sheng Mingyu really went back safely, he would die here.
If he had known earlier, he should not have cooperated with Du Changming, because he was a cruel and ruthless person.
"Get ready and go to the master's house tonight."
This time, Marquis Changping brought his personal bodyguards with him to help him conceal his whereabouts.
Late at night, when everyone was asleep, he arrived at his lawyer's house. After comparing the two, it was his lawyer who spoke first.
"What brings you here, Lord? I think our cooperation is over. If you haven't done what you promised, I can't help you."
The lawyer's attitude was not good. He had placed all his hopes on Changping Hou in the morning, and was even willing to make an enemy of Sheng Mingyu.
Now I want to recover, but I don’t know how to do it.
Who knows what Sheng Mingyu's temper is like? Will he kill himself?
Marquis Changping felt aggrieved. In Anyuan County, a small county, how could someone dare to disrespect him?
Even if I didn't complete the task, what could I do? I didn't owe him anything.
"Don't be angry yet. As the Marquis, I will do what I promised you. Even if the Crown Prince doesn't support it, I will use my authority to do it. Don't worry."
The lawyer was unwilling to give face to the Marquis of Changping anymore, so he told him everything he had heard.
"Oh, Lord, please don't be so arrogant in front of me. Everyone knows how you act in front of the prince. What can you do for me? What rights do you have? You were restricted on the first day you arrived."
If he hadn't been so panicked and had inquired earlier, he wouldn't have been a step late in front of Sheng Mingyu.
"You!" Marquis Changping's face turned pale, and he was so angry that he pointed at him and trembled all over.
He is related to the royal family, but for some reason, he has been wronged all these years in Kyoto and his life has been very frustrating.
"Even if I'm incompetent, I'm still better than a mere advisor like you! What's more, you and the Crown Prince are now on opposite sides. Who else can you turn to besides me?"
Marquis Changping snorted coldly, unwilling to give in any further.
The master took a deep breath and always felt that his luck was not very good. The first half of his life was smooth sailing, so why did the second half of his life become so bumpy?
When will these people in Kyoto leave!
"I... then, Lord, please think of a solution. What should we do about this? I want to see how powerful you are. Anyway, I can't hand over the prisoner."
The Marquis of Changping quickly sensed something was wrong with his words and frowned, demanding, "Hand him over? Didn't you say you didn't arrest this man? What do you mean by handing him over? You have to tell me the whole story before I can help you."
If he really did it, the way he handled it would be completely different.
Seeing that he could no longer hide the truth, the lawyer had no choice but to tell the truth, "My Lord, please don't worry. Let me make it clear to you. This is it..."
The only person he could rely on was Marquis Changping. He didn't know the whole story and was afraid that he would have to bow his head in front of Sheng Mingyu.
The more Changping Hou listened, the more shocked he became. So many things had happened in such a small Anyuan County.
"You are too bold! Even a Marquis of my status wouldn't dare to arbitrarily transfer the people in the prison. If they all disappear and make trouble at the court, you will be beheaded. How can I help you?"
The lawyer knelt on the ground, full of regret.
He regretted it the moment he did it, and he regretted it even more when it was brought up again and again.
But this is his identity, what can he say?
"I was blinded by profit at the time, but now the person has been sent away and cannot be found. Please help me think of a solution. You are also an adult in Kyoto, you can intercept this message."
Marquis Changping shook his head hurriedly and did not dare to agree at all.
"No! This matter is beyond my control. Go find whoever you want to help. Our cooperation ends here!"
He has Du Changming's support behind him, but who doesn't know that the current crown prince is lower than Sheng Mingyu?
Since Sheng Mingyu is determined to fight to the end, Du Changming may not be able to stop him.
Just as the Marquis of Changping was about to leave the room, the lawyer got up from the ground and shouted, "Marquis of Changping!"
Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well take another gamble.
"Don't forget, you came to my place today. There are many people watching me in my house. If I shout, it will definitely attract attention. If the news gets to the prince, I guess you won't be able to clear your name. Do you still want to leave now?"
The master returned to his previous self and threatened people calmly.
This is the tough him in the past. It has become really boring to ask for help from others recently.
The master dares to be so tough, and there is another thing to bet on.
People are born with the desire for immortality, especially those who are in a high position, who probably never want to give up their status and position.
"Don't forget, I mentioned the elixir of immortality. Both His Majesty and the Crown Prince should be in great need of this medicine. As long as you are willing to help me, I am willing to ask the master for one for you."
Sure enough, Marquis Changping stood there in a daze, unable to utter a word. He really understood his thoughts.
Seeing that Marquis Changping showed signs of being persuaded, the lawyer continued to make further efforts.
This is his last chance to survive. As long as Marquis Changping agrees, everything will be fine.
If he doesn't agree to me, I might as well die early.
"My Lord, I think you really need this medicinal herb. As long as you have achieved such a great achievement, the glory in the future will be countless. Do you want to leave early?"
The atmosphere was silent for a long time, and Changping Hou finally regained his senses. What the hell was going on? They really treated him like a fool!
