However, Wang Zhuo did not think so, because given their current situation, this kind of thing is no longer so important.

This time, Li Junze didn't have any objection and nodded in agreement.

"Come on, Ze'er, this time I'll introduce you to Sun Xingzhi, the third place winner of the last imperial examination."

Wang Zhuo was very pleased to see Li Junze being so obedient, but he also made up his mind that Gu Qiongsi had such a great influence on Li Junze that he could not keep her.

I will definitely find an opportunity to get rid of that woman in the future.

Sun Xingzhi had been standing aside. When he heard Wang Zhuo introduce himself, he immediately bowed to Li Junze and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince An."

This time, unlike his previous contempt, Li Junze actually nodded to Sun Xingzhi as a greeting.

"I've heard my grandfather talk about Sun Tanhua for a long time. I didn't have the chance to talk to him more when I met him before. I hope Sun Tanhua can help me in the future." Li Junze said in a soft tone.

Sun Xingzhi immediately felt the huge difference between Li Junze's treatment of him before and after. He didn't understand what Wang Zhuo had said to Li Junze. He just said modestly, "Your Highness, thank you for your praise. I will definitely do my best."

"Well, there are several counselors in my grandfather's house, and they are all very loyal subordinates. I will introduce them to you when I have time.

During this time, let them follow you to do things. "

Wang Zhuo smiled and watched the interaction between the two people, then turned and said to Li Junze.

"Yes, Ze'er understands. Grandfather, please take good care of your health. As for the matters in Prince An's Mansion, please rest assured."

Li Junze's thoughtful words once again pleased Wang Zhuo and made him laugh out loud.

"Grandfather, there is one more thing. Ze'er wants to arrange someone to do it in the next two days, so I'm telling you in advance.

During this disaster relief, Jinzhou Governor Niu Penghai and Ze'er had a big disagreement, and even secretly created a lot of obstacles to the disaster relief work, so Ze'er wanted to..."

He wanted to silence Niu Penghai so that no one would know what happened during his disaster relief work in Jinzhou.

Wang Zhuo didn't let him continue. He also thought about the news that the relief grain arrived in Jinzhou so late. Perhaps Niu Penghai knew something he shouldn't know.

Therefore, Ze'er wanted to kill Niu Penghai.

"Can this man be bribed with money?" He asked after pondering for a long time.

Li Junze shook his head decisively, "Not only does this person not understand the ways of the world, he is also very stubborn. If he could, Ze'er wouldn't have waited until now."

"Besides, Ze'er is more worried that he will report the matter of Jinzhou. By then it will be too late. The emperor has just treated Zi'er much better. If someone reports this matter, I'm afraid..."

I'm afraid that the emperor's attitude towards him will return to what it was before, or even become even colder.

After all, disaster relief, no matter when, is a matter of stabilizing the foundation of a country, and he naturally understands this.

Wang Zhuo still shook his head. "It is not wise to take action against Niu Penghai at this time, but leaving him alone is not an option either. Send someone with some influence to Jinzhou to continue supervising Niu Penghai's disaster relief work."

Although the locust plague has been contained now, post-disaster reconstruction and resettlement of disaster victims are also very important matters. It is reasonable for King An to send people there.

Although Li Junze did not quite agree with Wang Zhuo's approach, he still nodded, agreeing to his arrangement.

"Okay, Ze'er will go back to the mansion to arrange it." Li Junze agreed, bowed to Wang Zhuo, and returned to Prince An's Mansion with Sun Xingzhi.

Wen Jiaxiang and Cao Xingwen were both in the conference room waiting for Li Junze to come back.

"Your Highness, we have made arrangements. Do you want to start now?" Wen Jiaxiang asked impatiently.

After seeing Sun Xingzhi following behind Li Junze, his expression froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

He thought that Sun Xingzhi was sent by Wang Zhuo to monitor their actions, but Sun Xingzhi bowed to them and said, "Hello, both of you. I am Sun Xingzhi. Please give me your guidance."

"Okay, Xingzhi, you don't have to be so polite. We are a family from now on, so just be more comfortable." Li Junze waved his hand. With these simple words, Wen Jiaxiang and the other man immediately let down their guard against Sun Xingzhi.

They all bowed to Sun Xingzhi and then turned the topic back to what Wen Jiaxiang had just said.

"Have you discovered any clues?" Li Junze asked in surprise.

"Yes, there is indeed a problem, and it is a big problem. Please give me your instructions, Your Highness." Wen Jiaxiang said cryptically.

"Well, okay, call the butler in." Li Junze nodded.

Soon, the butler was brought in.

"Tonight, we plan to take action against the Dali Temple. You and Cao Xingwen go to the hot spring villa to count twenty capable men." Li Junze didn't say anything else and gave the order directly to the housekeeper.

Sun Xingzhi showed a look of astonishment when he heard this. Li Junze had just agreed to it, but he didn't expect that as soon as he returned home, he immediately forgot what he had promised to Wang Zhuo.

But he, always cautious, remained silent.

The housekeeper also looked a little surprised, but he quickly asked, "Twenty? Isn't that a little too few? After all, this is the Dali Temple. Last time we had forty people there."

He was talking about the last time he tried to assassinate Wang Quan and Ji Huan in the middle of the night.

"It doesn't matter. Just follow Cao Xingwen's arrangements." Li Junze didn't give him any further explanation. He waved his hand and told the two of them to go quickly.

After the two of them left, Sun Xingzhi asked, "What do you want, Your Highness?"

doing what?

If possible, he could also demonstrate his abilities and help with some ideas.

Li Junze smiled sinisterly, "Xingzhi, don't worry, you will know in a moment."

Sun Xingzhi was a little uncomfortable with such a friendly address, but he nodded and stood beside Wen Jiaxiang.

Since he is currently employed as a fifth-rank reader in the Hanlin Academy and holds an official position, his status must be much higher than Wen Jiaxiang's.

He had just stood there for a moment when he saw the butler being tied up by two or three guards and taken into the conference room.

Cao Xingwen followed in and said breathlessly, "Your Highness, it turned out to be the butler. He raised a few pigeons next to the stable. Just now, I saw him trying to release the pigeons to send a message."

After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, holding a gray-white carrier pigeon, its body wrapped in a handkerchief, and presented it to Li Junze.
