After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.
Chapter 247 Surrender
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to leave, he heard the terrible plan of the two.
Liu Wenming was originally just worried that their terrible plan would involve him, and was still hesitating whether to accept the suggestions of the Fifth Prince and Prince Gu.
Unexpectedly, he later heard the two men saying that they wanted to get rid of him, and Liu Wenming trembled all over.
In this way, he had to surrender to the fifth prince and Prince Gu, at least he could save his life.
Tao Guang and Zheng Haojie never expected that their plan would personally push Liu Wenming into the arms of the enemy.
Jingshan has completed the tasks assigned by Jamel Xiao and is currently reporting to the two of them.
"Master, my subordinates have found out that Tao Guang has a very bad reputation in the Qinnan area. He has been doing random things and killing people all day long because he is a relative of Prefect Luo. The people are afraid of Prefect Luo's status and methods, and they all dare to be angry. He didn't dare to speak, and no one dared to interfere with his affairs. Zheng Haojie, as Tao Guang's follower, gave him advice all day long. It can be said that the two of them were working together. After investigation, the subordinates found that the two of them seemed to have suddenly had an affair recently. It’s a windfall, and the spending is very generous.”
After hearing Jingshan's words, the two looked at each other and smiled.
"It seems that our guess is correct. Tao Guang really has a close relationship with Prefect Luo. He relies on this relationship to dare to act arrogantly. No wonder the people are afraid of him, for fear of offending him."
Gu Jingan nodded when he heard this, "Tao Guang doesn't look very smart. It turns out that Zheng Haojie is giving him advice. Tao Guang acts so arrogantly. It seems that Zheng Haojie often gives him bad ideas."
Jamel Xiao chuckled when he heard this, "Although Tao Guang is not very smart, he is quite courageous. He has been so generous recently. He must have embezzled the money for building the dam. Jingshan, how is the investigation of that wreckage? Yes, is there any problem?"
On the way back to Tao Mansion from the embankment, Jamel Xiao handed the wrapped wreckage to Jingshan and asked him to investigate as soon as possible.
"When I got back to my master, I found a construction craftsman with good skills. He knew at a glance that there was something wrong with the material. There was no material like mud and sand in it, and the quality of the clay used was not up to standard. The craftsman said If such materials are used to build a dike, it will collapse sooner or later. However, if there are no disasters, the dike can barely hold on for a year and a half, and it will not collapse immediately. "
Jamel Xiao nodded when he heard this, "This material is consistent with what Liu Wenming said. It seems that he is quite dedicated. This will confirm our suspicion that they have tampered with the material."
Gu Jingan chuckled and said: "According to what the craftsman said, even if they cut corners, the dike can last for a while and the secret will not be revealed so soon. But they didn't expect that there would be a flood at the beginning of the year, and the dike's The materials were not up to standard, and the original shape suddenly appeared, unable to withstand the violent impact of the flood at all."
"How come I don't get my shoes wet when I often walk by the river? I've done too many bad things, and I won't always be so lucky. We finally have a piece of evidence. As long as Liu Wenming can testify against them, none of them will be able to escape. Jingshan, you Have you found out what leverage he has in the hands of Tao Guang and Zheng Haojie?"
"Returning to the master, Liu Wenming is an honest official and is very conscientious in his work. His subordinates did not find anything against him. However, they discovered that Tao Guang and Zheng Haojie had arrested Liu Wenming's family. I think he will be controlled by the two of them. Because they are threatening the lives of Liu Wenming’s family.”
Gu Jing'an suddenly realized after hearing this, "No wonder, I just said that Liu Wenming looks very honest, how could he be coerced by them to do such a thing. Using the lives of his family members to blackmail a good official who has been honest all his life to help them embezzle public funds is really unscrupulous. .”
"Jingshan, go find out where Liu Wenming's family members are being held and rescue them. Without this threat, Liu Wenming will definitely cooperate with us and bring these two greedy people to justice."
"Yes, Master, I will take care of it now."
Jingshan took the order and quickly disappeared into the night.
As soon as Jingshan left, Yunfei came in to report.
"Your Highness, Mr. Liu Wenming and Mr. Liu would like to see you."
The two of them were stunned when they heard this. How could Liu Wenming come at this time?
I was still talking about him just now, but I didn't expect him to come to the door so soon.
Gu Jingan asked: "We haven't rescued him yet, how could he change his mind now? It's so late, if he didn't change his mind temporarily, why would he come to you at this time?"
"I can't figure it out, but could something happen at this time? Yunfei, let him in."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Not long after, Liu Wenming entered the room, looking flustered and anxious.
"I'm here to see His Highness the Fifth Prince and Crown Prince Gu. I know it's a bit rude to interrupt so late, but I do have something urgent that I must report to His Highness and Crown Prince."
Seeing Liu Wenming's anxious look, Jamel Xiao knew that his guess was right, something big must have happened.
Gu Jingan also saw the seriousness of the matter and comforted him: "It's okay, Mr. Liu, don't be impatient. Sit down and talk slowly."
Liu Wenming didn't care about etiquette at this time and sat down directly.
He had been in panic ever since he heard about Tao Guang and Zheng Haojie's plan. He wanted to tell the Fifth Prince and Prince Gu but was afraid of being discovered and did not dare to act rashly.
Fortunately, Tao Guang kept letting him stay in the guest room of Tao Mansion for fear that something would happen to him during this period. Liu Wenming went back to his room first and didn't dare to come here until dark.
Liu Wenming calmed down and then spoke: "Xiaoguan, I accidentally discovered Tao Guang and Zheng Haojie's plan. They are plotting to kill you two."
Both of them were shocked when they heard this. They knew that these two people were brave, but they didn't expect them to be so brave.
"Master Liu, are you telling the truth? You can't talk nonsense."
Seeing that Gu Shizi had doubts about him, Liu Wenming became even more anxious.
"It's absolutely true. How dare you talk nonsense about such a big matter? They have already planned to do it tomorrow night. They know that you two are highly skilled in martial arts, so they plan to stun you with smoke first, and then kill you. Then the gods and ghosts will not be aware of it.”
Liu Wenming was afraid that the two would not believe him, so he told Tao Guang and Zheng Haojie their detailed plans one by one.
What Liu Wenming said was detailed and did not seem to be a lie at all, and there was no need for the two of them to doubt him.
But Jamel Xiao was very curious about the reason why he came to tell the two of them.
"Mr. Liu, I believe what you said, but there is something I don't quite understand. You were clearly unwilling to cooperate with our investigation in the morning, so why did you reveal such an important matter to us at night?"
Liu Wenming's heart sank when he heard this, and he knelt on the ground.
