Chapter 429: The Prince's One-Man Show
That night, one of the spies who had gone to keep an eye on Eleven came to report.
"Your Majesty, there is an update, just after the end of the academy, we found out that a mysterious man was in contact with ten people. β
This spy does not have a high official position, so he will add an adult to the address of Eleven.
Yesterday and the day before yesterday, the limping spy who was pitted was different, his official rank was even one level higher than Eleven, so he directly called him Twelve.
ββ
"Tell me about it!"
"Yes!"
The spy nodded, and then said:
"We followed the man and found out that the man had led the ten people to a remote corner.
Judging by the reactions of the top ten, he didn't know this person.
Then, we heard the man offer conditions to win over the ten people.
As for who instructed it, the man didn't say, the man only said that ten people need to keep an eye on Your Majesty, and if necessary, do something by the way!"
"Huh, what are you doing?"
Wang Zang snorted coldly:
"You didn't make it clear, I'm afraid I'll cut me down if it's not necessary!"
ββ¦β¦β
The spy didn't reply, but it was clear that Wang Zang had guessed correctly.
"Go on, what does Twelve say?"
The Twelve decisively refused. β
"Is it to refuse at the beginning, or to think about refusing when you hear that the benefits are not enough?"
"This is the beginning!"
"And after that?"
"I haven't agreed since then. β
"Hmph, that kid still has a bit of a conscience. β
Wang Zang took a sip of the tea in front of him, and said with an interested expression:
"What benefits did the other party offer?"
"Well...... The other party said that as long as the ten people nodded, there would be 7,000 gold coins presented.
And in the future, as long as the situation allows, he will also be given the rank of the lowest officer of the B rank. β
"Seven thousand gold coins, B-rank officer?
Wang Zang sneered, and then said:
"What does Twelve say?"
"This ...... Twelve adults, he ......"
Although the spy hesitated a little, it seemed that the next words were not easy to speak.
"To put it bluntly, I am not guilty of you!"
"Yes!"
The spy was relieved at this time, and then took a deep breath, as if he was going to do something big:
"The Ten said that although he likes money, he only likes the money he has from Your Majesty and the Empress.
The Ten Men also said that His Majesty and the Empress are both misers of a petty family, and he needs to ask you for some money from time to time so that he can get rid of this stinky problem of yours.
The Ten Men also said that only by pulling money out of the teeth of misers like you and the queen can his ability be revealed.
He also asked the man what he had said
[Don't you think plucking from two iron cocks is a rewarding thing]?
The top 10 people also said......"
"Stop, that's enough!!"
Wang Zang finally couldn't listen anymore, and stopped the spies from saying the next thing they said.
The corners of his eyes twitched, and his forehead was full of black lines.
"Skip this topic, do you have any other information?"
"Yes, yes!"
After the spy said those words, he was actually quite desolate in his heart, and now that Wang Zang changed the topic, he was also relieved, and then saw the spy continue to add:
In short, the other party's wooing of the top ten people is a complete failure.
The Ten Men said that in order to teach that person a lesson, they needed to be fined 100 gold coins, so as to comfort the injured and fragile hearts of the Ten Men who lost 7,000 gold coins......"
[I lost 7,000 gold coins in wool, and I lost the whole world if I want to say so!]
Wang Zang couldn't help but say this in his heart, of course, he didn't say it directly.
Then the spy continued:
The man refused to give money to the top ten, saying no, but the ten did not believe it and wanted to search him.
The man resisted, and was beaten by the ten.
In the end, all the belongings on his body were robbed, not to mention, and the nice clothes were also pulled off.
Until he fled, the man was also a gray mess. β
In Wang Zang's speechless expression, the spy added with a naΓ―ve face:
"Oh yes, the man really wasn't lying.
The total amount of his possessions on his body really did not add up to a hundred.
After all, the maximum number of gold coins to survive is only twenty gold coins. β
In this regard, the spy was still very convincing, because he had seen Eleven pour all the money in the man's money bag in his hands, which was only a dozen gold coins.
plus the small jade pendant that was robbed, plus it is only twenty gold coins.
ββ
But seeing that this Wang Zang was staring at him with a speechless and worried expression, the spy had no choice but to keep his head down and shut up.
"Stand down, and let your men keep an eye on that kid. β
"Yes, the minister is retiring!"
ββ
So, a few hours later that night, the spies who were in charge of keeping Eleven's eyes suddenly found that Eleven was not in bed at home.
But I don't know when it's gone.
The spy was in a hurry on the spot, and ran into the palace with a crawl, wanting to report the matter to Wang Zang.
But the guards in charge of guarding the king's sleeping palace did not let him in.
Over and over again, one sentence:
"Your Majesty and the Empress are resting in the palace, and no one is allowed to enter, and we will talk about it tomorrow. β
So, the spy had to wait and wait, and when Wang Zang came out of the palace in the morning, he knelt directly on the ground, and then said that he had disappeared at eleven last night.
Wang Zang was also a little surprised when he learned about this.
He was a little uneasy, but he didn't show it.
In short, let the spy step down, and he himself went to the early dynasty first.
On this day, there were no fewer people in the court, but Wang Laohu did not come.
Wang Zang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there were no more dead people.
This Wang Laohu didn't come, Wang Zang didn't think about it, Wang Laohu was so out of shape in the court yesterday, and it was not strange if he didn't come today, he just had that temper.
It is estimated that it will not be long before someone will come to tell him about Wang Laohu.
Of course, as for whether it is a real disease or a fake disease, this is naturally self-evident.
In the final analysis, Wang Zang was just worried about the military power in Wang Laohu's hands.
The leaders of several nearby cities are also basically Prince Tiger's people, and if Wang Tiger gathers them, it will not be a good thing.
Therefore, the king hid at the various entrances and exits of the city gate, and arranged henchmen, the purpose was to keep an eye on the people of Wang Laohu's family and not let them go out of the city casually.
ββ
After the next dynasty, Wang Zang did not receive any news about Wang Laohu's leave.
On the contrary, his henchman found him anxiously.
Wang Zang had realized that something was wrong.
Immediately, I got the news from this secret agent:
"Your Majesty! Wang Laohu...... Crazy......"
Although it was only these few words, it made the current Wang Zang's body tremble.
Wang Zang suddenly thought of the sentence he said to Eleven [Wang Laohu is water, not sand].
Yes, if it is sand (killing), then Wang Laohu should be dead at this moment.
It's because it's water that he can't be allowed to die.
"I see...... Let's go down......"
Wang Zang looked a little decadent, and he let out a long breath.
At the same time, the truth has finally been clarified.
Twelve is the murderer!
Wang Zang would never doubt his judgment again.
