After Wei Jingyuan left, Cao didn't feel sleepy. For some reason, she vaguely felt that Wei Jingyuan's last words before he left seemed to have other meanings. , Does the method Wei Jingyuan said really work?Will the emperor really let her unborn child go because of this?Cao Shi lightly stroked her stomach, and her disturbed thoughts became more and more unfocused.Just now, Mrs. Cao was aroused by Wei Jingyuan's words to elicit anger and resentment from the bottom of her heart. Since she entered the mansion, such thoughts have gradually been buried in her heart with Wei Guohuai's care, and now, she can no longer maintain that peace. Ultimately, a choice has to be made.

"Young Master..." Liang Zhen secretly followed Wei Jingyuan back to the East Chamber. After entering the door, Liang Zhen smiled and said, "Master, if I hadn't arrived in time this time, I'm afraid things would have been difficult?" Intent to invite credit.

Wei Jingyuan's mouth was dry at what Cao said, so he picked up the cold tea on the table and drank half a cup. After quenching his thirst with the light-scented tea, he said, "You came very quickly, but I don't know you. Where are you hiding in the mansion?" Wei Jingyuan looked up at Liang Zhen lukewarmly.

Liang Zhen said with a smile: "This Yongguo Palace is no better than the Great Inner Palace, it's smaller and you can come and go freely."

Wei Jingyuan snorted coldly: "Are you not afraid of being noticed by my father? Don't you know that Wei Lin's kung fu is not inferior to yours?"

Liang Zhen smiled disapprovingly: "If you come here, you will be safe. If Wei Lin finds out about my existence, you can kill me. Isn't this fulfilling the young master's wish?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Although Wei Jingyuan sternly stopped him, there was no harshness in his eyes.

Liang Zhen pretended to sigh: "If it wasn't for a small shot this time, how could the young master have achieved something?" Liang Zhen just wanted to see Wei Jingyuan angry.

Wei Jingyuan's eyelashes moved slightly, and he said coldly, "There are silver taels under the pillow, take them yourself."

"The little ones are welcome." Liang Zhen walked quickly to the couch, took out the silver tael from under the pillow, and put it in his arms in a graceful and unrestrained manner. When he returned to Wei Jingyuan, he had restrained his laziness just now. It was replaced by a serious expression: "Master, I heard what you said to Mrs. Cao just now. I'm sorry to say it bluntly, although Ms. Cao complied with Mrs. Cao's words, she might not really know how to do it."

Wei Jingyuan said softly: "She has no way out. After she figured it out, she will naturally do it."

Liang Zhen said again: "If she can really do what the young master said, it will be good, but the question is, will the emperor believe Cao's words?"

Wei Jingyuan curled his lips into a sneer: "Liang Zhen, let me ask you, do you know anything about the court affairs?"

Liang Zhen hesitated for a moment: "I know a thing or two."

"Then let me ask you, which is the strongest force in the court?" Wei Jingyuan asked with a smile.

Liang Zhen hurriedly said in case Wei Jingyuan set him off, "I don't know."

Wei Jingyuan had no time to pay attention to Liang Zhen's thoughts, and said bluntly: "His Royal Highness and the Second Prince have always been at odds with each other, and each has their own thoughts. Help, the two forces are fighting against each other in the court, and they will not give in to each other. Also, the emperor is a sage monarch, and he already knew it in his heart, but he chose to turn a blind eye and let the two forces grow stronger. Why do you think this is?"

Liang Zhen was silent for a moment: "When two tigers fight, one must be injured?"

Wei Jingyuan smiled and said: "It's true, but it's not true. If the time has not come, the emperor will not easily let any of the forces be reduced, otherwise it will be an uncontrollable situation." Wei Jingyuan paused, and said: " Cao Yun, a wealthy businessman in the capital, has been secretly working for the prince. All the money he got has been handed over to the prince to win people's hearts. If the Cao family is willing to listen to me and insist that Cao Yun's family is a secret agent of Xiangguo, I believe it will be considered evidence If it is not enough to prove Cao Yun's identity as a secret author, the emperor will definitely go down the river and copy Cao Yun's house."

Liang Zhen was secretly surprised, he never expected that at such a young age, Wei Jingyuan would be able to guess what happened in the court, apart from admiration, he also felt a chill in his heart, he was a little scared.

"In this way, the matter is clear at a glance, but..." Liang Zhen hesitated for a while, and Fang asked: "The young master just said that the emperor is waiting for the right time. If the emperor really copied Cao Yun's house this time, , isn’t it the same as cutting off the prince’s fortune, and invisibly helping the second prince once?”

Wei Jingyuan said with a slight smile: "The technique of balancing, how can anyone beat the current Holy One."

Liang Zhen pretended to be confused, and asked, "I don't quite understand."

"It's fine if you don't understand, but if you know too many things, your life will be short." Wei Jingyuan was tired, with sleepy eyes. Seeing him like this, Liang Zhen couldn't ask further questions, and said with a little reluctance: " The young master should be tired, so Liang Zhen will leave first."

"When will I let you go?" Wei Jingyuan swept away his tired face, and said in a cold voice like just now: "Tomorrow Jing Zhaoyin will come to escort Cao away, and I will also go to the palace to see the master. Come before entering the palace, replace Yuanbao and follow me into the palace."

Liang Zhen asked suspiciously, "Why?"

Wei Jingyuan's smile was not a smile, and there was a chill in his eyes: "I hinted to my father earlier that the Cao family would confess to the Duke of Yongguo's mansion according to the prince's wishes. It is a matter of careful work, and my father will definitely take it to heart. Just in case, you follow me into the palace to watch Wait, if father really moves, I want you to rescue Cao Shi."

"Save the Cao family?" Liang Zhen became more and more confused.

Wei Jingyuan suppressed his smile: "I want the child in Cao's womb. As for the reason, you don't need to ask."

"Yes." Liang Zhen changed his view of Wei Jingyuan, his master is probably not that simple.

After Liang Zhen answered, he asked again: "Eldest Young Master, I'm sorry, I still have a question, can I ask you to clarify?"

Wei Jingyuan did not respond, but nodded slightly.

Liang Zhen said: "Since the eldest young master hinted at the Duke, the Duke will find a way to end the Cao family, but I don't understand why you want to save the Cao family again?"

Hearing this, Wei Jingyuan actually laughed out loud: "The heart to save Mrs. Cao was already there early on. As for why I hinted at my father, I just wanted to see him frightened and uneasy, and he couldn't bear to do it. Isn't this the worst thing in the world?" Is it a wonderful thing?" Wei Jingyuan smiled, with an unprecedented viciousness in his expression.

For some reason, Liang Zhen felt that Wei Jingyuan felt so real at this time, and he didn't hide it at all. Could it be that this is the original face of the master?

Liang Zhen coughed lightly, and continued to ask: "Eldest young master, if the Duke really knows how to do something, he will definitely choose the dead of night. Although you have never been a disciple of the master, how can you stay in the palace for the night?"

Wei Jingyuan blinked and said with a smile, "I have my own arrangements."

Liang Zhen had finished asking all the questions he should have asked, nodded and said, "It's getting late, please go to bed early, Liang Zhen will leave." Liang Zhen was about to walk to the window when he heard Wei Jingyuan say from behind: "Liang Zhen Zhen, are you afraid of me?"

Liang Zhen froze in place, was he really afraid of Wei Jingyuan?Liang Zhen thought about it carefully, it didn't seem to be the case, what Wei Jingyuan brought to him was undoubtedly shock and admiration.Liang Zhen turned around with a smile, walked quickly to Wei Jingyuan's side, leaned forward, and whispered next to Wei Jingyuan's ear: "Young master is so handsome, how could Liang Zhen be afraid?" Liang Zhen stretched out his hand suddenly Picking up Wei Jingyuan's chin, staring at those thin lips, he said, "It's too late to see, why are you afraid?" After finishing speaking, Liang Zhen let go and ran towards the window.

Wei Jingyuan was furious, and said sharply: "Liang Zhen, you are so courageous, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Liang Zhen was about to rush out of the window, but stopped halfway, and said with a smile: "With the current strength of the young master, it is not enough to kill me, and you are also reluctant to kill me." After finishing speaking, Liang Zhen jumped out of the window .

Wei Jingyuan couldn't restrain the anger in his heart, he grabbed the teacup on the table and wanted to vent his hatred, but his hand stopped in mid-air, he slowly lowered his arm, put the teacup back to its original place, and then stroked the teacup touched by Liang Zhen. His chin crossed, and a smile slowly appeared.

"Young Master." Yuan Bao poked his head in from the door, his loose black hair covering half of his cheeks.

Wei Jingyuan came back to his senses, looked at Yuan Bao and smiled, "Why are you in such a mess?"

Yuan Bao entered the house and complained: "Young master didn't ask me to lure those two people away, but I ran all the way, and that person chased me all the way. I didn't dare to stop for a moment, for fear that I would be caught by him and ruin the young master's life." Good thing."

Wei Jingyuan smiled gently: "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard." Yuan Bao brushed his black hair back, and said with a naive smile, "Eldest Young Master, before I came back, I sneaked back to take a look. Those two were still guarding Aunt Cao's door, and they didn't seem to find anything."

Wei Jingyuan said happily: "Yuan Bao has grown up."

Yuan Bao raised his head and said with a smile on his face: "Yuan Bao wants to grow up quickly, and then he can help the young master with anything."

Feeling pity, Wei Jingyuan raised his hand and pinched Yuan Bao's cheek: "It's getting late, let's go rest."

Yuan Bao's face flushed red: "Yuan...Yuan Bao still needs to serve the young master to take a bath."

"I'm tired too, so I don't need to take a bath today, let's go rest." Wei Jingyuan turned around and came to the bed, Yuan Bao hurriedly followed, knelt down, and took off Wei Jingyuan's shoes and socks.

Wei Jingyuan smiled and said: "I told you to go and rest, but you still refuse to leave."

Seeing that Wei Jingyuan was not harsh, Yuan Bao strengthened his courage and said with a smile, "Yuan Bao has become accustomed to it, and I won't be able to fall asleep if I don't wait for the young master to sleep."

"You..." Wei Jingyuan shook his head helplessly, and then let Yuan Bao serve him to sleep.

At night, when the watch sounded, Wei Jingyuan had already fallen asleep, but Yuan Bao, who was sleeping at the door, had his eyes wide open and kept rubbing the cheek that Wei Jingyuan had pinched, so happy that he couldn't hold it back.

At noon the next day, Duke Yong's mansion welcomed Jing Zhaoyin. He came here this time to grant the emperor's order to bring Cao's Yueniang, the minister of Xiangguo, into the palace for interrogation.Although Wei Guohuai was calm on the surface, pretending to have a clear conscience, in fact he was already terrified, fearing that the Cao family would bite him.After Jing Zhaoyin escorted the Cao family away, within half an hour, the emperor delivered another decree, this time to resign Wei Guohuai from his official position, and make more decisions when the truth comes to light.

While Wei Guohuai was frightened in the mansion, he also hated the prince Liu Xian. He intended to submit to the prince, but the time had not come. Now... the prince is so vicious, how can Wei Guohuai just sit and wait for death?

In the attic of the Prince's Palace, Wen Tao was trembling with anger, but because of his status as the prince, he had no choice but to exhort him painstakingly: "Why don't you make a decision after discussing with the old minister, Your Highness the Prince?"

Liu Xian snorted coldly: "What uncle wants to say is straightforward, there is no need to beat around the bush." ​​How could Liu Xian not know that he had made a wrong step, and now it is hard to get off.

Wen Tao let out a long sigh: "His Royal Highness, the Cao family has been taken into the palace by Jing Zhaoyin, and I am afraid that he has already met the emperor at this moment."

Liu Xian said angrily, "So what?"

Wen Tao shook his head helplessly: "His Royal Highness, now the Cao family is sure to die, and there are many things involved. Now Wei Guohuai has been implicated. He originally intended to be moderate, and he helped each other in two steps. Now I am afraid it will be difficult..."

Liu Xian was stunned: "What uncle means is that Wei Guohuai will submit to Liu Gan?"

Wen Tao sighed, "I wish I was overthinking."

"He dares" Liu Xian said sternly, "If Wei Guohuai dares to submit to Liu Gan, I will make sure that he is not left alive in the Yongguo Palace."

Wen Tao saw that Liu Xian was in a fit of anger at this moment, if he continued, he might cause trouble again, now he had to think of a way in secret, not to let the matter escalate.

"Master, the carriage is ready." Yuan Bao called softly in front of the mansion.

Wei Jingyuan came in a moon-white robe, and stopped when he left the mansion.

"Eldest young master?" Seeing him frozen in place, Yuan Bao couldn't help calling out.

Wei Jingyuan came back to his senses: "Yuanbao, there is no need to enter the palace." Wei Guohuai turned around and entered the mansion, how could he be so confused, if he went to the palace to find Liu Yue and Li Zhuoyan, it would definitely cause the emperor to criticize Liu Yue However...if he cannot enter the palace and his father takes action at that time, how will the Cao family be rescued?

Bubbling when you roll... I hate the overlord's god horse the most.
