I'm the villain in the book

"Open the city gate quickly! It's the commander-in-chief who has returned!"
"Squeak!"
With the slow rotation of the winch, the huge city gate with a height of three feet opened little by little, and Wei Changtian and his party finally arrived at the end of this journey - Shuzhou City, known as the "Southwest of the Town".
In order to ensure the stability of the border, all the capitals of the twelve prefectures and counties on the border of Daning were located on the border, and Shuzhou City was the largest among them.
In the south is the mysterious Shiwan Dashan, and in the west is the affiliated state of Daning "Dali".
In the tens of thousands of years since the city was built, four dynasties have established their capitals here, and the population even surpassed that of today's Daning capital at its peak.
Careful farming and gold and iron horses, good weather and evil spirits, Buddhism and Taoism, etiquette and barbarism... All kinds of seemingly contradictory elements converge and merge in this ancient city, and finally form a unique and gentle, but also sturdy and martial arts. folk customs.
There are gentle and gentle women from the south of the Yangtze River and celebrities who are famous in the literary world, as well as the Shu army who can conquer and fight well, and countless mountain bandits who occupy the mountains as kings.
Countless forces, both open and dark, occupy this place, maintaining a delicate and firm balance.
"Changtian, Shuzhou City is not bad!"
Standing upright on the horseback, Liang Zhen smiled and asked Wei Changtian, who was also riding a horse instead of a car, "Is it a completely different feeling from the capital?"
"really."
Looking at what to do and what to do on both sides of the road, Wei Changtian nodded noncommittally to the crowd who didn't care about them: "It seems that the common people are more courageous."
"Indeed."
Liang Zhen explained: "The city of Shuzhou is located in a special location. It not only has to beware of the monsters in the [-] mountains, but also has conflicts with the Li Zhen clan in Dali. Therefore, almost all the big households have private soldiers, and many even have their own soldiers. More than a thousand people."
"They don't take the government very seriously, and over time, the common people also look down on officials."
"Ah."
Wei Changtian didn't care much about it, and even thought it wasn't a bad thing.
Now that he leaves the capital, he is out of the most core scope of power of the Wei family.
Although it is no longer possible to borrow the power of the family, it is also convenient to do some things that were not easy to do before.
"By the way, Uncle Liang, I'm here for the first time. Who do you think is going to visit?"
"I've already thought about this matter for you, and I'll talk about it with you at dinner time..."
"..."
While looking at the street scene in the city, while chatting with Liang Zhen, the group soon arrived at the General Military Mansion in the north of the city.
The mansion is very grand, except for the new door plaque engraved with the word "Liang", the rest of the place has a sense of history, and I don't know how many generals stationed in the frontier lived in it.
In fact, Wei Xianzhi had already bought a small courtyard for Wei Changtian in Shuzhou City in advance, but it was a little late now, so Wei Changtian planned to sleep in the Liang Mansion for one night before moving to a new home tomorrow.
There is nothing to say about the dinner. After all, the people along the way did not eat and sleep in the open. There were delicious and delicious treats along the way, and they were never wronged. Therefore, now there is no feeling of "finally eating a good meal".
The climate in Shuzhou was damp and the food was very spicy, but maybe because Wei Changtian was not acclimatized, Liang Zhen still ordered the cook to cook Beijing dishes.
The craftsmanship is good, and the taste is similar to that made by Wei's chef.
Wei Changtian ate with relish, while Yuan'er secretly wiped her tears while eating, it was obvious that she was touched by the scene, and was missing the people and things in the capital again.
After eating, it was the beginning of Haishi.
After drinking tea and chatting with Liang Zhen for a while, Wei Changtian went back to the guest room to take a shower and go to bed early.
The servants of the Liang Mansion had already prepared hot water, and Yuan'er was adding cold water to the wooden barrel with a ladle to adjust the water temperature.
Seeing her frowning look, Wei Changtian just wanted to comfort her by "doing it yourself", when there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Young Master Wei, this is a letter from the postman just now, saying it was sent to you from the capital."
"Ok?"
Wei Changtian was taken aback, and reached out to take the letter, only to see the words "my husband's personal experience" written on the envelope.
Written by Lu Jingyao?
It was indeed her handwriting, but why did you write the letter so quickly?
Is something wrong?
Wei Changtian was puzzled, and was just about to tear open the envelope to find out, when a small eager face suddenly appeared beside him.
"Master, who wrote you a letter? Is it Madam?"
"Yes."
"What was written in that letter?"
"I haven't watched it yet, so how would I know?"
Wei Changtian shook the letter paper, dumbfounded, and read it from the beginning.
Yuan'er was illiterate, but she didn't want to leave, so she just waited on the sidelines until she saw Wei Changtian put down the letter with a calm face, and then hurriedly asked:
"My lord, what did Madam say in the letter? Tell me quickly!"
"It didn't say anything."
Wei Changtian smiled and said, "Just asking if we have been to Shuzhou, she and Qiuyun miss us very much."
"The letter also said that they had a good life in the capital, so we should take care of ourselves... Oh yes, and specifically asked you to take good care of me."
"Is it?"
Yuan'er has no doubts about these words, but she always feels that Wei Changtian is just perfunctory herself.
Young master obviously read it for so long, how come there are only these two sentences in the end?
She wanted to ask again, but before she could say anything, she was instructed by Wei Changtian to continue preparing bath water.
And just after Yuan'er walked away with her mouth pouted, the smile on Wei Changtian's face disappeared instantly, and he frowned and fell into thought.
Lu Jingyao wrote down everything about Chunshen Bookstore that day in the letter.
Obviously, the "old friend" who never showed up is Xiao Feng.
But why did he go to see Lu Jingyao?
Not even willing to wait a few more days, even at the risk of being discovered?
It's like a terminally ill patient saying goodbye to relatives and friends on the deathbed... wait a minute!
bid farewell……
Wei Changtian's eyes lit up, and he instantly figured it out.
His letter must have played a role, Xiao Feng decided to come to Shuzhou in advance!
Chapter 101 The Four Letters
According to the original plot, Xiao Feng should not have come to Shuzhou so early, he should be conspiring with the Liu family to deal with the Wei family at this moment, and the map will not be changed until next spring.
Of course, now that Liu Yuanshan is dead, Xiao Feng naturally cut off the Liu family's support.
Wei Changtian didn't know whether Xiao Feng chose to come to Shuzhou early because of his letter, or because of the butterfly effect of the plot change.
He didn't really bother to think about it.
Because it doesn't make sense.
From successfully marrying Lu Jingyao to killing Liu Yuanshan, he has changed too many plots.
The fluttering wings of a butterfly finally turned into a storm. Everyone's fate has changed more or less, and even took another path...and will develop into a completely different follow-up.
In this case, the timeline of the original plot is no longer helpful to me, and the golden finger of the "prophet" has gradually become a "knower".
Knowing the secrets of many important people is Wei Changtian's biggest reliance besides the system.
As for questions such as "what will Xiao Feng do in the future", it is already difficult for him to predict.
"Ugh……"
Sighing, stepping on the wooden stool, he stepped into the big wooden barrel.
The water temperature was just right, and Yuan'er was sitting on her knees and splashing water on herself with a wooden ladle.
While taking a bath, Wei Changtian began to think about Xiao Feng's problems after he arrived in Shuzhou.
The fact that he was dispatched to Shuzhou is known all over the world, and it is impossible to hide it.
Therefore, the situation of "the enemy is dark and we are clear" will not change.
In fact, Wei Changtian understood one thing a long time ago, that is, it is almost impossible to kill Xiao Feng by means of "wanted arrest" and "offering a reward".
After all, the Destiny's Child, unless he encounters a 100% certain death situation, will definitely be able to escape.
When I was in the capital, I set up bureaus twice. It can be said that I have done everything I can do, but in the end, I still let Xiao Feng escape twice.
But now without the help of the Wei family, it would be even more difficult for him to take the initiative to find such an opportunity.
I'm afraid it can only be a "defensive counterattack".
First ensure your own safety, then develop your power as soon as possible and wait for Xiao Feng to take action, and finally complete the counter-kill.
To be honest, it was a bit risky, but Wei Changtian did not regret bringing Xiao Feng to Shuzhou in advance.
After all, with the system and the golden fingers of the "knower", I can still fight him.
And if he was allowed to deal with the Wei family in the capital, he might not be allowed to wait three years when he went back by himself, the whole Wei family would have been ruined long ago.
Let's take a step by step.
After making a general plan for the future, Wei Changtian relaxed a bit, but his expression suddenly changed the next moment.
"Cough! Yuan'er, I can wash that place myself..."
"Well?"
Yuan'er raised her head in confusion and asked, "What's wrong, young master? Did I hurt you?"
"..."
Wei Changtian was dumbfounded for a while, and turned to look at Yuan'er.
She didn't wear much at first, but now the thin skirt on her body was wet in several places, showing a beautiful scene.
hiss! !
I can bear it, but my brother can't bear it!
"Pfft!"
Accompanied by Yuan'er's exclamation, a large splash of water swayed from the barrel.
……
……
"Madam personally learned..."
An hour later, the "playing in the water" activity ended, and Wei Changtian had already dressed and sat at the table to write a reply to Lu Jingyao.
But he stopped writing just after writing the first four characters.
Lu Jingyao's identity is a concubine. From the etiquette point of view, she can't write the word "my wife", let alone "my concubine". She should use "madam" to refer to a wider range of titles.
But it always feels awkward.
Wei Changtian, whose level of ancient Chinese is worrying, hesitated for a long time, and finally stopped worrying about this kind of thing, and continued to write:
"The letter has been received, Yuan'er and I have been on a smooth journey since we left home, and we have arrived in Shuzhou City safely, so I am relieved..."
"I understand what you wrote in your letter, don't worry, that person will definitely not bother you anymore, just be at ease..."
"I hope you can teach my sister more in your free time, take care of the housework, and let Li Yang take care of the bookstore, so you don't have to worry too much..."
"..."
After thinking hard and scratching his stomach, Wei Changtian finally put down his pen with a sense of relief. He didn't even bother to check it. He just stuffed the letter into an envelope and sealed it. It took a while for the ink to start writing the second letter with a sad face.
This is for Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen.
"My parents, my lords..."
"..."
With the experience of the first letter, he wrote much faster this time, and wrote... two hundred words in half an hour.
