"The high priest's prestige in the court remains. As long as he can tell the truth, the majority of people will believe it." Wu Zixu analyzed one by one, "But Yu Wenxu has become a khan now. If he wants to truly To convict him, it would be better to find evidence of his collusion with Yan State."

"I think the high priest thinks the same way." Hu Yanwen said hurriedly, "It's just that Yu Wenxu is suspicious by nature. Like me, even if I haven't gotten close, I will be punished by him just for going out, let alone Went to find evidence.”

While speaking, Hu Yanwen's eyes kept drifting towards Wu Zixu.

He knew that Wu Zixu would definitely have a way to get the evidence.

Wu Zixu narrowed his eyes and met Hu Yanwen's eyes.

After a moment, he hummed: "It seems that Lord Huyan wants me to take action."

"The only person who can get close to Yu Wenxu right now is you, Mr. Wu!" Hu Yanwen smiled sarcastically, "If I can gain Yu Wenxu's trust as much as you do, I will definitely go and take out the evidence myself!"

Hu Yanwen's words were really unconvincing.

But since Wu Zixu is willing to make this suggestion, he naturally has the confidence.

Under Wu Zixu's gaze, he nodded: "This matter is not difficult. I can get it done."

Hearing this, Hu Yanwen's eyes widened: "Seriously?"

"More real than real gold." Wu Zixu said in a deep voice, "Master Huyan, since I dare to agree, I will definitely get the evidence."

Hu Yanwen stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly, almost laughing out of his eyes: "Okay, okay! Mr. Wu is really a talented person!"

"When the second prince becomes Khan, I will definitely let the second prince record your great achievements!" Hu Yanwen was extremely happy, "On the contrary, your status will definitely not be worse than it is now!"

Unexpectedly, Wu Zixu waved his hand: "That's not what I want."

Hu Yanwen was stunned and stared at Wu Zixu suspiciously: "Then what do you want?"

"I want to live in seclusion with my clan members." Wu Zixu said quietly, "I have never wanted to participate in court disputes, and I am tired of these years."

"If the second prince becomes the khan, please give me a few kind words, Mr. Huyan. Our Wu family is tired of the intrigues in the royal city. We want to return to the Moon Sea to be with the cattle and sheep."

Hu Yanwen couldn't believe what his ears heard, and his pupils widened.

"You..." Hu Yanwen murmured, "Are you really going to give up the glory and wealth you have at your fingertips?"

"For our Wu family, glory and wealth are just passing smoke." Wu Zixu sighed, "These are not the most important. We just want to be free on the grassland."

Hu Yanwen's eyes were extremely complicated, but Wu Zixu's expression was extremely firm, and it didn't look like he was saying anything against his will.

After hesitating for a moment, he could only nod slowly: "If you haven't changed your mind by then, I will definitely tell the second prince for you and ask him to let you go."

A genuine smile appeared on Wu Zixu's face, and he bowed to Hu Yanwen: "Thank you, Lord Hu Yan."

When Hu Yanwen left, he was still in a daze.

He never expected that Wu Zixu's request would be so simple?It’s so simple that you can’t believe it!

"Sir, what's wrong with you?" The guard saw him in a daze and immediately called him over.

He waved his hand: "I'm fine, I'm just a little too surprised."

The guard caught a glimpse of the dazed look on Hu Yanwen's face and didn't believe what he said at all. He even wanted to go to the alley to find out.

It was Hu Yanwen who stopped him with a cold and stern voice: "Stop!"

"Hui clan land!" Hu Yanwen glared at him coldly.

He lowered his head and stood there submissively: "This subordinate is just..."

"I know you are thinking about me." Hu Yanwen softened his tone, "But this is not something you can know."

"I'm back." Hu Yanwen waved his hand, "If I stay any longer, I'm afraid the guy from Wang Ting will discover my whereabouts."

As soon as he heard this, the guard became more energetic and said, "Go ahead and investigate!"

……

It was night, Wu Zixu came to Manxiang Tower.

In a wing on the second floor, candles had already been lit, and a table full of wine and food was waiting for his arrival.

He looked at the table of food and wine, turned over and came in with gleaming eyes, and while drinking, he said vaguely: "Hu Yanwen wants me to find evidence of Yu Wenxu's dealings with Yan Guo. How can I find it?"

"Are you really going to dig through Yu Wenxu's trunk?" Wu Zixu sighed with satisfaction as he tasted the wine from his hometown.

After hearing this, Xie Yan's eyes darkened: "Evidence of contacts with Yan State?"

"Yes!" Wu Zixu nodded, "I think his proposal is good. Otherwise, just relying on the high priest's words may not be enough to convict Yu Wenxu. But as long as the evidence is found, Yu Wenxu is afraid I'll die a thousand times."

"Then go ask Yan Guo for it." Xie Yan said lightly.

Wu Zixu was eating meat. He almost choked when he heard this. He quickly drank a glass of wine to calm down his shock: "Ask for it from Yan State? Will he help you?"

Even though he was far away in the Xiongnu, Wu Zixu still knew about the grudges between Xie Yan and Yan Yu.

He winked at Xie Yan and said, "Even if the Emperor of Yan is helping you, it's for the sake of the princess. Are you still willing to let the princess correspond with him?"

However, these joking words were instantly suppressed by Wu Zixu with Xie Yan's cold glance. He looked left and right as if the person who just spoke was not him.

Xie Yan sneered, his handsome face looking even more grim under the soft candlelight: "He will be willing to send the evidence."

"For him, as long as these evidences can convict Yu Wenxu in the Xiongnu, he will be able to eradicate all the nobles of the Yan Kingdom."

Hearing this, Wu Zixu took a breath: "This Emperor of Yan is also a ruthless person! No worse than Yu Wenxu!"

"When it comes to his mind, Yu Wenxu is far worse than him." Xie Yan smiled coldly again, "This person is cunning and cunning, and he is not easy to deal with."

"I know! I know!" Wu Zixu nodded repeatedly, "I have heard of his reputation a long time ago."

"What's more, he deliberately allowed the nobles of the Yan Kingdom to collude with Yu Wenxu, wasn't he planning to catch them all in one fell swoop?" Wu Zixu smiled again, "When the time comes, he will not only be able to take the Huns into his pocket, but he will also be able to cooperate with the enemy and treason. For these crimes, we must eradicate those nobles of the Yan Kingdom!"

"This man!" Wu Zixu sighed quietly again.

Xie Yan caught a glimpse of the teasing smile in his eyes, his face was slightly gloomy, but he still didn't say anything.

He glanced at Wu Zixu, turned around and left.

"Don't let me see you tomorrow morning."

"Okay!" Wu Zixu agreed immediately.

Seeing Xie Yan disappear, the smile on Wu Zixu's face became even brighter.

……

At the same time, the capital of Yan Kingdom.

After removing all the poison from his body, Yan Yu's complexion has improved visibly.

And those nobles of the Yan Kingdom who originally thought that Yan Yu's life was about to end, were frightened after seeing Yan Yu's more vigorous and resolute methods day by day.

If Yan Yu continues this purge, nine out of ten nobles in the Yan Kingdom will be wiped out!

As a result, everyone in the Yan Kingdom's nobles was in danger.

Over the years, they have done a lot of things overtly and covertly!

Yan Yu was sitting in the main hall, and to his right was a pile of memorials that was half a head taller than a person.

Wenxue felt sorry for him and said quickly: "Your Majesty, please rest for a few days! So many memorials must be approved in the year of the monkey and the month of the horse!"

However, Yan Yu didn't even raise his head in response to his words.

Seeing this, Wenxue felt even more sorry for him.

Just then, a travel-worn messenger stumbled in, holding a letter in his hand.

As soon as the messenger came in, Yan Yu's attention turned away from these memorials. He stared at the letter in the messenger's hand, his eyes filled with coldness.

"Where did the letter come from?"

"Hun."

The messenger's legs trembled as he spoke.

After being baptized with blood, Yan Yu's eyes became colder and more solemn, and he didn't dare to look directly at them.

Even though Yan Yu still had a gentle smile on his face, he didn't dare to take it seriously.

"Xiongnu?" The gentle smile on Yan Yu's face paused for a while, then he stared at the messenger, "How did the Xiongnu know that the message was sent through you?"

When the messenger heard this, he knelt down on the ground with a "plop".

"Wei Chen doesn't know!" The messenger's voice became trembling. "As soon as Wei Chen woke up, this letter appeared on his pillow!"

"The content of this letter!" The messenger said in a low voice, "As soon as the minister saw it, he rushed to the capital day and night!"

At Yan Yu's signal, Wenxue took the letter.

Yan Yu's eyes were gloomy. After clearly reading the contents of the letter, a smile appeared on his lips, but this smile looked extremely cold and twisted no matter how you looked at it.

The messenger knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head.

Even Wen Xue lowered his head at this moment.

Yan Yu slammed the letter on the table and laughed with unknown meaning: "When did the Huns also learn to be secretive like this?"

"I'm afraid there are experts behind the scenes to help." When Yan Yu said this, his sarcasm became more and more obvious.

Wenxue carefully looked at his face and asked tentatively: "Didn't I say before that the Second Prince of the Huns had surrendered to the Chu State? Perhaps this was written by the Second Prince of the Huns under the instruction of the Chu State."

"Inseparable." Yan Yu said, "Even if it's not him, it will be other Huns controlled by the Chu State."

"But..." Yan Yu said this and sneered, "For me, this is indeed a good idea!"

After that, he stood up and said, "Follow me for a walk."

Wenxue was stunned: "Leaving the palace?"

"Leave the palace." Yan Yu nodded, "I want to leave the palace and meet some old friends."

When Wenxue saw his calm and calm appearance, his heart skipped a beat.

He didn't look like he was looking for an old friend, but rather like he was looking for revenge!
