Everyone was shocked. Even if they hated Li Ye, killing a prince was no small matter.
It will definitely shock the entire court, and the higher authorities will definitely conduct a thorough investigation.
By then, no one will be able to escape responsibility.
"This, this isn't going to work, is it? If the higher-ups investigate and find out, it's a heinous crime, punishable by the extermination of all nine generations of your clan."
Even if this succeeds, the gains will outweigh the losses!"
The Governor was startled.
Although he hated Li Ye to the core, he didn't dare to have such thoughts.
“I tell you, if we don’t make up our minds now, no one will be able to escape.
Since the prince is so merciless towards us, we should wait until he completes the disaster relief.
Do you think he will let us go?"
Wei Guang had already received instructions from the Crown Prince to cooperate in finding an opportunity to kill Li Ye.
It's just that after Li Ye came, his performance was unexpected.
Actually stood with them and went along with them.
Under the huge benefits, he wrote to the prince and planned to wait and see.
They can make a lot of money and also grasp Li Ye's lifeline.
You can deal with him at any time.
But he never expected that he would capsize in the gutter and be severely beaten by Li Ye.
Now that you know he's your enemy, there's nothing to worry about.
Give the killer an opportunity as soon as possible to kill Li Ye.
It's just that although Wei Guang is the prince's confidant, his heart is as clear as a mirror.
Doing this kind of thing is very dangerous.
No matter he succeeds or fails, he will face great danger once it is discovered.
The prince may push him out to take the blame at any time.
It is even possible that he will be killed directly in order to keep the secret.
In order not to offend the prince and keep himself safe, Wei Guang did this.
Therefore, it was decided to bring in all the officials of Namwon.
At that time, we will all prosper and suffer together.
No matter how powerful the prince is, it is impossible for him to kill everyone.
What Wei Guang said was also what everyone was most worried about.
After being severely tricked by Li Ye, she no longer had any trust in him.
If we wait until all officials are no longer useful, we might continue to dig up evidence of their crimes.
No one dares to gamble with his own life.
"I think Lord Wei is right, we absolutely cannot sit idly by and wait for death!
Prince Xu dares to offend all of us, maybe he has a backup plan.
If we can't cover up our actions, we'll all be in trouble." Some officials also became ruthless and decided to get rid of Li Ye once and for all.
Kill him and find some scapegoats, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.
"Then we have to plan carefully! We can't act rashly in such a big situation."
The Governor was also somewhat tempted.
The main reason was that he was extremely resentful of Li Ye for spending all the money he had plundered from his family to buy food.
Only by killing Li Ye can all the money be earned back.
And he was even more worried that Li Ye would continue to search for evidence of their crimes.
It’s better to strike first.
"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter!
Once we start, we will do it quickly and decisively, leaving absolutely no trace.
They said that the remnants of Annan were unwilling to see their country destroyed and sent assassins.
Even if the higher-ups investigate, there will be people who will help cover it up for us."
Wei Guang gave everyone a reassurance. Although he didn't say it explicitly, he also revealed an important piece of news.
Everyone knew that Wei Guang was the crown prince's confidant.
Since he said so, he must have obtained the Crown Prince's permission.
The Governor asked excitedly, "Do you mean the Crown Prince..."
"Shh, can you just say this casually? Even if you know it in your heart, you can't say it casually!
Everyone present must sign and seal their names to leave your evidence.
Whoever dares to betray His Royal Highness will be killed without a burial place."
Wei Guang knew that the time was almost right, so he scolded the governor.
Let them keep this thing to themselves.
But he was really happy in his heart. Now that things had come to this, everyone was on board his pirate ship.
I can only be tied to him.
Market officials and grain merchants grasped at straws.
Now that the prince has taken action against Li Ye, they see hope again.
"That's too late. If you had said this earlier, we wouldn't have anything to worry about!"
"We'll follow Lord Wei's arrangements. We'll do whatever you say. We'll listen to you."
"Li Ye, Li Ye, why don't you offend us?
If you dare to ask for our money, we will take your life!"
"Shut up! Be careful, walls may have ears!
From now on, you must all obey my orders and stop opposing the prince.
Instead, we should cooperate more with him in disaster relief.
Then arrange for people to stay close to him.
If we completely break with him, it will be difficult to place new people there."
"Okay, let's go back and admit our mistakes to him!"
“Without officials like us, even if we had food, it would be impossible to complete the disaster relief immediately.
As long as I am willing to go back, the prince will definitely welcome me."
"Don't worry, let's wait a little longer! It would be too abrupt to go back directly.
We will hold a banquet to entertain the prince in the evening and pretend to be submissive to him.
Secondly, let him return some food to us first.
Stop loss if possible.
At the same time, this is also an excuse to reconcile with him without making him suspicious."
Wei Guang had already exhausted his plan.
Even how to regain Li Ye's trust has been carefully considered.
"You are truly worthy of being Lord Wei, to be favored by the Crown Prince! This plan is truly brilliant."
"That makes sense, let's arrange it right away!"
Nanyuan officials discussed how to deal with Li Ye.
Shi Wushuang and Qin Qingxue had also received the news that Li Ye had fooled the entire officialdom.
Shi Wushuang's anger exploded on the spot, smashing everything in front of him to pieces.
After venting for a while, he panted and muttered to himself: "I knew Li Ye had no intentions, but in the end he succeeded."
Qin Qingxue was even more worried that they came to provide disaster relief as a way to redeem themselves from their crimes.
After spending a lot of energy and effort, it finally gained some reputation among the people.
Unexpectedly, Li Ye had easily raised enough food.
Once these grains are distributed, they will surely be welcomed by all the disaster victims.
I'm afraid that what they did will become dispensable and not many people will remember it.
"So what should we do? Should we buy more food and distribute it to the victims in advance?"
"Hmph, what are you thinking about! There's no need at all! Li Ye offended all the officials and grain merchants by doing this.
I bet they will never sit still and wait for death. The only way is to assassinate Li Ye.
Just wait and see, the Crown Prince and the Third Prince's assassins will soon take action."
Shi Wushuang was very happy to see the princes killing each other.
The more people died, the greater the blow to Li Xuantian.
The opportunity for Yunlu Pavilion to control the Dayuan Dynasty will come soon.
