The Villain, The Quack, Poisons The Two Protagonists At The Beginning

The remnants of the former crown prince Gu Shizhe have already split into multiple factions.

Zhong Peng is a pure "revenge faction", and there are also the "ruin faction" who only seek to make ends meet, and the "money-making faction" who are on the underworld.

The leaders of the Qiongqi Gang are mainly money-seekers;

They have given up their obsession with revenge on the emperor, and just want to keep the underground world of Shengxianfang, make money quietly, and enjoy life.

Even if they had evidence of Tang Wei's crime, they did not intend to provoke a conflict between the emperor and the Tang family, but would take the opportunity to blackmail him.

As for the lunatic Zhong Peng, the Qiongqi Gang didn't even bother to pay attention to him. Only a few leaders thought of their old friendship and provided him with a place of refuge.

The person who really supports Zhong Peng behind the scenes is actually King Xiaoyang.

In recent years, the emperor gradually took control of the real power. In addition to restraining the Tang prime minister, he also put the plan to reduce the vassal vassal on the agenda.

As the number one vassal king, King Xiaoyang naturally bore the brunt;

Take the initiative to give in? Give up power and status? That is impossible!

There is no choice anymore. If you don't mess with the emperor, the emperor will mess with you... It's better to do the opposite!

Using Zhong Peng and other philosopher thieves to assassinate the emperor is only the first step;

If the assassination fails, the only option is to launch a mutiny!

Of course, before the rebellion, it is best to provoke a conflict between the emperor and the Tang family, let them fight first, and then reap the benefits...

Min Zhao was following the order of King Xiaoyang and secretly sneaked into the capital to carry out the operation;

And Cheng Lei was also the spy that King Xiaoyang had arranged in the capital.

Both of them were from Zhong Peng's hometown. They had practiced together when they were young, so it was easy to form an alliance.

At this time, Min Zhao fooled the drunken Zhong Peng again, and finally found out the information related to Tang Wei's criminal evidence.

It turned out that after Tang Wei reached the pinnacle of power, he became more and more unscrupulous and unscrupulous. He even forcibly took over the newlywed wife of a bookkeeper next to him after a banquet.

Although Tang Wei later sent some money as "compensation", the bookkeeper couldn't bear the bad breath and fled back to Beijing overnight to file a complaint.

This person worked as a clerical worker next to Tang Wei and had a lot of dirty information. He also brought back all kinds of evidence from account books to letters.

But his official position is low and he is not qualified to file a petition. If he follows the formal process, the Tang family will intercept the information...

In desperation, he came to the Shengxianfang black market, tried to contact the Police Bureau through his friends from the Qiongqi Gang, and sent the evidence directly to the emperor.

As a result, that "friend" was unreliable, so he turned around and reported the matter to the boss, Si Chi Gui.

So the four-foot turtle took away the master's book;

And Si Chi Gui has no interest in filing a complaint. Not to mention that it will be difficult to sue the Tang family. Even if the Tang family collapses, he will not get any benefits. He might as well use this matter to blackmail the Tang family!

I just didn't expect that Wei Lang of the Tang family was so cruel that he killed the four-foot turtle without giving him any time to react!

Today, the chief bookkeeper is still locked up in the dungeon by the Qiongqi Gang, and the leaders are still discussing how to deal with it...

After Min Zhao learned this information, he immediately left the crypt and went to the prince's mansion.

...

At this time, the crown prince Gu Jingfei was hosting a banquet for a distinguished guest... well, it was Wei Lang.

"On the Autumn Festival, I leave my sister to you! You must accompany her to all the night markets!" Gu Jingfei put his arm around Wei Lang's shoulders, like a good brother, "I have other arrangements, so I won't go Got it!"

"I...I also have other arrangements." Wei Lang's face was full of black lines.

"Ah this..." Gu Jingfei quickly looked at Gu Lingxi sitting next to him.

I saw Gu Lingxi frowning slightly, pouting, with an expression of disdain for her brother's uselessness!

"Uh...can you push off other dates? Spend time with my sister first?" Gu Jingfei leaned close to Wei Lang's ear again and discussed in a low voice, "Do me a favor! Please! Otherwise, my sister will pester me every day. It makes me unable to do anything..."

"Hey, no, no, I've already made an appointment with someone..." Wei Lang shook his head repeatedly.

"Brother, I won't let you suffer!" Gu Jingfei patted Wei Lang on the back again, "As long as you let my sister have fun, I will give you whatever you want!"

"No, I don't want anything." Wei Lang continued to shake his head, "I really made an appointment with them, and I can't go back on it..."

Gu Jingfei frowned: "What time did you make the appointment!?"

"Uh... tonight... I also have an appointment for lunch..."

"Aren't you free this morning and afternoon!?" Gu Jingfei immediately found a suitable time, "Just spend these hours with my sister!"

"..." Wei Lang was speechless.

Gu Jingfei looked at his sister again and found that her expression was still not satisfied... so he discussed again: "Forget it, no matter who you invite, take my sister with you! It's not just to watch the lanterns, it doesn't matter if she's extra. …”

"..." Wei Lang continued to be silent.

"..." Gu Lingxi also moved her lips, but stopped talking.

"Okay, it's settled! Cheers!" Gu Jingfei also said enough, brother, I have tried my best!

At this moment, a servant came up and whispered in Gu Jingfei's ear: Min Zhao is here.

Gu Jingfei didn't think much and directly ordered: "Just ask him to come over, we just want to have a drink together!"

Then he said to Wei Lang: "I will introduce you to a master later! He is one of the best practitioners in Xiaoyang, and he is now close to the heavenly realm. Well, he will almost be able to break through, right?"

"Oh?" Wei Lang's pupils suddenly shrank.

...

Min Zhao actually didn't want to show up in front of outsiders, but he didn't expect the prince to be so casual and call him over while he was still entertaining guests!

The key is that the guest is Wei Lang from the Tang family!

Alas, no wonder King Xiaoyang sent him here to be a proton! It’s really useless!

Fortunately, Min Zhao had always hidden himself well and never revealed his identity. He felt that Wei Lang could not know him.

Only the sword cultivator from the Tang family had fought with him, but he had his face covered at the time, so there was no risk.

"Your Majesty, please receive the guests first, and then come find me when you are done." Min Zhao stood at the door and said a word, then turned and left.

"Hey, why don't you come over for a drink?" Gu Jingfei didn't realize the risk at all, "Hey, it's true...these masters have such weird personalities that I really can't play with them!"

But Wei Lang has already recognized that guy!

From the appearance point of view, he is 70% similar to the portrait provided by Jiang Waner, but the long face is so consistent!

Looking at his gloomy face and dark eyes, hehe, it is exactly as the dean said, it is the sequelae of taking the Hunyuan Breaking Pill!

Wei Lang smiled and asked deliberately: "I wonder what the name of this master is?"

Gu Jingfei was about to answer when he suddenly heard a soft shout from outside the door:

"Your Majesty!"

Min Zhao turned back and stared at Gu Jingfei with extremely serious eyes.

"Ah? What's wrong?" Gu Jingfei was at a loss.

"My surname is Yan, the King of Hell's Yan." Min Zhao cupped his hands towards Wei Lang and took the initiative to introduce himself, "May I ask how you call me?"

Hehe, you gave a false name, right? Wei Lang smiled secretly and responded: "Wei Lang, from the Tang family."

"Oh, Mr. Wei, it's a pleasure to meet you..."

Seeing that the two sides had finished introducing each other, Gu Lingxi suddenly asked stupidly:

"Mr. Min...when did you change your surname to Yan?"

The atmosphere at the scene solidified instantly!
