Who Is The Protagonist’s Best Friend? I Want To Be A Villain

"Whether King Wei accepted bribes really needs to be investigated clearly."

Emperor Qian had no expression on his face.

"I will never let a bad person go, nor will I wrongly accuse a good person."

"However, until the investigation is clear, King Wei does not need to hold the position of commander of the Imperial City Department for the time being."

After Emperor Qian finished speaking, Cao Xu understood.

It turns out that Emperor Qian wanted to take away his position as commander of the Imperial City Division.

On the other side, Wang Bo did not speak. Being able to stand up and speak for Cao Xu was already showing his support for Cao Xu.

If you want him to help Cao Xu keep the position of commander of the Imperial City Division, that is a different price.

Moreover, Wang Bo could see that Emperor Qian was determined to remove Cao Xu from his position as commander of the Imperial City Division, and he might not be able to stop him.

"Does King Wei have any objections?"

Emperor Qian asked Cao Xu.

"You have your destiny, how can I dare to have any opinions? I just hope that your majesty can clear my name as soon as possible."

Cao Xu himself knew that it was a foregone conclusion that he would be removed from his official position, so he did not struggle.

After Emperor Qian took away Cao Xu's official position, his goal was achieved and he did not press forward step by step.

After all, the two men under Cao Xu who were at the peak of Great Grandmaster were not vegetarians.

After retiring from the court, Cao Xu's father-in-law, Su Yuan, Su Yuan, Su Lingxuan's father, left in a hurry and did not dare to say hello to Cao Xu.

Today, smart people can see that Cao Xu offended Emperor Qian.

Not many people dare to get close to Cao Xu now.

Of course, Prime Minister Wang Bo is an exception.

"Would King Wei come to the Prime Minister's Mansion? I have something to discuss with King Wei."

"OK."

Cao Xu was very considerate to Wang Bo and did not refuse.

Wang Bo was in a good mood.

Now that Emperor Qian has removed Cao Xu from his position, Cao Xu must have a problem with Emperor Qian, and it will be easier to bring Cao Xu to his side.

Cao Xu and Prime Minister Wang Bo came together, and the officials who saw this scene had different expressions.

The ministers who were loyal to Emperor Qian had ugly faces, but those in the Prime Minister's party were in a very good mood.

"Your Majesty, Cao Xu and Prime Minister Wang Bo have come together."

Eunuch Li reported to Qianhuanghui.

After hearing the report, Emperor Qian frowned.

What he least expected to see happened.

"How is General Chen Lan?"

Putting aside the troubles at hand for the time being, Emperor Qian planned to hear some good news.

Chen Lan was a general among the 300,000 troops arranged by Emperor Qian to enter the northern border.

Previously, Lin Ye asked for Lin Hao to be released on the condition that Emperor Qian arrange the generals.

"There are 50,000 people who nominally obey General Chen Lan, but in fact it's hard to say."

Lin Ye managed the 300,000-strong army like an iron barrel. Without Lin Ye's consent, Emperor Qian couldn't even place people in it.

The generals sent by Emperor Qian died in the army within three days due to various reasons.

Now that he has Lin Ye's handwritten letter and seal, he can at least take charge. Although it is hard to say how many people actually obey orders, it is a big improvement compared to before.

"When Lin Ye was alive, the 300,000 troops were of one mind. After Lin Ye died, that would not necessarily be the case."

A glint flashed in Emperor Qian's eyes.

"Tell Chen Lan that he must fully control the 50,000 elite soldiers under his command. He still has less than five months."

In no more than five months, the forest industry will be poisoned and die.

"Your Majesty, General Chen Lan reported that Lin Ye's adopted son may be able to win over him."

"Lin Ye's adopted son is the Xie Yunfeng who stepped into the Great Grandmaster position before he was thirty years old and killed the leader of the Northland Wolf Tribe among thousands of troops?"

The Beidi Wolf Clan refers to the nomadic people in the northern border of Youzhou, which is equivalent to the Xiongnu in history before Cao Xu transmigrate.

"Yes, Your Majesty, it's him."

"He is Lin Ye's adopted son, can he really win over him?"

Emperor Qian had doubts in his eyes.

The other party is Lin Ye's adopted son, can he be trusted?

"Your Majesty, according to some rumors, Xie Yunfeng once called Princess Zhenbei's name after being drunk."

"If we promise to give Lin Ye his princess after his death, we might be able to win him over."

After listening to Eunuch Li's words, Qianhuang showed amusement on his face.

"The adopted son actually has feelings for his adopted mother?"

"Go and investigate whether the rumors are true. If they are true, then give it a try."

"It would be best if we can really win them over. Once we take control of King Zhenbei's 300,000-strong army, it will be time to eliminate the rebellious ministers and traitors."

Prime Minister Wang Bo is his biggest concern.

Although the other vassal kings were also ambitious and secretly raised soldiers and horses one by one, they were far away from each other, not in the capital, and not under the eyes of Emperor Qian.

Prime Minister Wang Bo was under the eyes of Emperor Qian.

He is the biggest obstacle to Emperor Qian in the court. If you want to pacify the vassal king, you must first get rid of the biggest scourge of the prime minister.

At the same time, Prime Minister Wang Bo, the biggest scourge in Emperor Qian's heart, was entertaining Cao Xu, a man who had been removed from his official position.

"I originally planned to help King Wei control the Imperial City Division, but it's a pity."

"I take it for granted."

Cao Xu himself did make some mistakes.

It was too early to kill Chen Yongan, it was a bit impulsive.

Of course, even if Chen Yongan is eliminated later, the result will probably be the same.

Emperor Qian attached great importance to the Imperial City Division. As long as Cao Xu had the idea of ​​​​controlling the Imperial City Division, he would definitely be dismissed.

Unless Cao Xu is willing to help Emperor Qian through life and death and be a loyal minister honestly, he may be able to secure his position as the commander of the Imperial City Division.

But do you think Cao Xu can be a loyal minister honestly?

Cao Xu will only be loyal to one person, and that is himself.

"What are King Wei's plans next?"

"I don't have any plans for now, just be a idle prince."

Cao Xu was very relaxed and didn't feel uncomfortable at all about being dismissed from his official position. Even Wang Bo, an old fox, couldn't tell if Cao Xu was faking it.

"By the way, Prime Minister, it was your people who betrayed me this time. I must give an explanation."

It was Wang Bo's people who provided the confession, and Cao Xu did not forget it.

"I will deal with them."

People who can't keep their mouths shut have no need to live. Even though they may not be able to withstand torture to extract confessions, Wang Bo only cares about the results.

"Besides, this gift is just an apology."

A gift box was delivered to Cao Xu. Inside was a piece of soft gold silk armor.

"This soft armor is made of golden silk. Invulnerability To Spears and Sabers, even if a Grandmaster-level powerhouse uses internal strength to pierce it, it will be difficult to pierce."

Wang Bo introduced to Cao Xu.

This golden soft armor is indeed precious. It is smooth to touch and very light, but it has extremely strong defense.

It is not an exaggeration to say it is worth tens of thousands of dollars.

"Then I will accept it."

Cao Xu would not be polite and accept it directly.
