After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.

"Sir, take a closer look. That's not what he meant. He meant for us to..."

Zheng Haojie said and made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Tao Guang was startled, "Does this...need to go to this point? He is the prince, and the legitimate son of the current emperor. Are we able to bear the consequences?"

Seeing that Tao Guang was scared, Zheng Haojie chuckled in his heart.

On weekdays, because he was a relative of the prefect, he often did some outrageous things. He was so courageous that he even embezzled public funds without blinking an eye.

This would involve human lives, but my courage suddenly became smaller.

But it may also be because Jamel Xiao’s special status is indeed beyond his control.

Zheng Haojie advised: "As long as we do it cleanly and do not leave any clues, it will not be our turn to bear this responsibility."

Tao Guang was still hesitant. After all, this was not a trivial matter.

"This... we just need to find a way to make them return empty-handed. Is it necessary to do it so cruelly? Once this is discovered, the nine tribes will be killed."

Zheng Haojie naturally understood this truth, but at this point, they seemed to have no better choice.

"My lord, I understand your concerns. But you see, they are obviously not giving up until the results of the investigation are revealed. If they continue like this, they will find us sooner or later. And don't forget that they are still here. When talking to Liu Wenming, how can we guarantee that he will not confess us?"

After hearing this, Tao Guang's heart was pounding. Looking at their posture today, they would not give up easily.

"But... so what if he really confesses us? The evidence has been disposed of. How can they convict us without evidence?"

Zheng Haojie thought for a moment, "We have overlooked one thing before. Liu Wenming was responsible for destroying the evidence. Although we detained his family, he would have some backup plans if he did not leave anything behind. If there is no evidence against us, we will be doomed.”

Tao Guang was used to being arrogant and domineering, and he never thought that there would be times when his threats would not be effective. When Zheng Haojie said this, he was a little confused.

"Does he really dare to do this? He is not afraid that we will kill his family. However, even if it is proved that we did it, so what? I am a relative of the prefect. It doesn't matter how guilty I am. Are you going to kill someone?"

After listening to Tao Guang's words, Zheng Haojie laughed angrily.

Did he really think that the prefect was such an important official that he could be protected from even the crime of embezzling public funds?

"Sir, are you thinking too simplistically? Embezzling public funds is a serious crime, and what we embezzled is not just a few taels of silver but tens of thousands of taels. If it is serious, we may be beheaded. Do you think the prefect can do this? Can I protect you?"

Tao Guang did a lot of bad things on weekdays, and he didn't even realize that embezzling public funds was such a serious crime. He was frightened when Zheng Haojie said this.

"This... when you said you were going to do this, you didn't say it was such a serious crime? Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't dare."

Zheng Haojie sneered in his heart. Now that he was afraid, he was still complaining about him?

I don't know who it was when I saw the one hundred thousand taels of silver, so excited that my eyes almost popped out, and kept asking him if he could find a way to get it.

He thought of a way and squandered all his money. Now that the incident was about to come to light, he began to complain that he had not made it clear about the seriousness of the matter earlier.

Tao Guang is not like this for a day or two, and Zheng Haojie doesn't bother to argue with him. After all, they are grasshoppers on a rope now. If they don't find a way, they will all be doomed.

"Sir, now is not the time to talk about this. Anyway, we are going to die anyway, so it is better not to do anything and solve the matter directly from the source. If we do it cleanly, maybe we can still escape and live like this in the future. Days like those before.”

Tao Guang thought for a moment and felt that what Zheng Haojie said was reasonable.

Rather than sit back and wait for death, it is better to fight to the death.

"Haojie, you are right, let's do it this way. This letter only mentions the fifth prince, what about Prince Gu? Do we want to deal with it together?"

Zheng Haojie nodded when he heard this, "Of course, since we have to do it once and for all, we can't let anyone go."

"Well, that's the truth. But as you saw today, both of them are so powerful in Qinggong, and their skills must be pretty good. I'm afraid it's not that simple to kill them."

"This is not a problem. After all, they are hiding us. As long as we use a little bit of tricks, it is not easy to catch them. This matter is not difficult. Just use a little smoke to make them die quietly in their sleep. They are currently living in your residence, and it is not easy to get rid of them. I will go and make preparations, otherwise we will have a long night and many dreams, so we will start tomorrow night."

Tao Guang's eyes lit up when he heard this, "If you still have a way, then I'll leave this matter to you. Find a few reliable people and do it cleanly."

Zheng Haojie smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will definitely handle this matter well."

"However, they are relatives of the emperor after all. If they die in my house, how can you and I get away with it?"

After all, Jamel Xiao and Gu Jingan’s status was not low, and Tao Guang was always worried.

Zheng Haojie thought for a moment, "This is not difficult. When the time comes, we will also pretend to be injured and say that there is an assassin in the house. We don't know what happened. At most, we should be punished for the crime of being unfavorable in protection, and nothing will happen. .”

Tao Guang nodded when he heard this, and suddenly thought of something, "By the way, although what I just said is only a possibility, the risk is still very high. Can't Liu Wenming stay? Why don't we just take this opportunity and do it together?"

Zheng Haojie nodded, "This person really can't be kept. They have already talked with him alone. Who knows if he will betray us, so it would be safer to get rid of him. But it will be very easy to deal with him. Once he is dealt with, Let’s get rid of those two big troubles. Seeing how he has helped us, we can give him a special gift so that his family can reunite with him over there.”

After Zheng Haojie finished speaking, Tao Guang immediately understood what he meant and smiled sinisterly.

The two of them made a plan and imagined a better life after solving all this. They were very proud.

Little did he know that all this had been heard by Liu Wenming.

Liu Wenming did not hear the entire conversation between the two, only the second half.

But Liu Wenming heard completely about the two men's plan to assassinate Jamel Xiao and Gu Jingan, as well as their words about getting rid of him.

After Liu Wenming arrived at the door of Tao Guang's study, he was about to knock on the door when he heard Zheng Haojie's voice.

Liu Wenming was very familiar with Zheng Haojie's voice, thinking that the two of them might have something serious to say, so he wanted to come back later.
