Chapter 337: The Self-cultivation of the Staff
After Lian Ze heard this, his cold face became even paler.
"I'm going to kill him." The voice was low, as if it came from the deepest part of the throat.
Seeing that Cai Gao was about to get angry again, Cai Shu hurriedly spoke:
"At the moment, Qian Hongyu is likely to have known our plan, and it is likely to attack us next.
Lian Ze lowered his head and was silent.
"Father, there is something I think is very strange, why did Qian Yu suddenly tell his brother about this? He hadn't been suspicious for so long, how could he suddenly figure it out? And there was no warning beforehand. Cai Shu asked.
"Could it be that we suddenly made him play crazy and provoke that idiot?" Cai Rong raised his eyebrows and said.
"Eldest son, cousin, there was news just now, saying that Qian Yu has often been in and out of Li Junyi's mansion these days, so the Hou Ye suspects that Li Junyi has seen through it." Qingyang replied.
"The alien guy? He's too nosy, uncle, and I think we should teach him a lesson. Cai Rong said with a gloomy face.
"Okay, we'll talk about that later." Cai Gao patted the table.
"What Ming'er said just now is right, the first task now is to prepare to deal with Qian Hongyu, Rong'er, you take this letter to your father and let him prepare for battle."
He handed over the letter he had just written.
Cai Rong took the letter and said in surprise: "Uncle, do you mean that Qian Hongyu will turn his face directly with you?" Isn't he afraid of causing chaos in the country and letting the Tang State and the Hui'an Mansion take advantage of the situation? β
"Normally, he wouldn't be that stupid." Cai Gao sat up slightly and said:
"But it's always good to be prepared, Qian Hongyu seems to be weak, but in fact he is quite scheming, when he murdered the former King Wu Yue, Ben Hou didn't expect him to do that kind of thing, it's better to be more guarded."
"Master Hou, should we inform Luo Tai there?" The Chief Strategist reminds.
"No need, if there is news over there, we will contact us immediately, so don't contact him as much as possible, so as not to arouse Qian Hongyu's suspicion." Cai Gao touched his short beard and said.
At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside the stone room, and everyone stopped talking and looked over.
The housekeeper of the Houfu bent down and walked into the study, arched his hand and said, "Master Hou, there was news just now that the stronghold of the 'Ju Dove' in Hangzhou City was attacked by Ma Kongming, and the entire stronghold was taken away. β
Cai Rong's face changed greatly, Ju Dove had business dealings with him, and it had always been one of his fixed sources of wealth, and the stronghold was terminated, which meant that he lost this source of wealth.
"Isn't Ma Kongming a subordinate of Lu Yuan? Why did it suddenly appear in Hangzhou? He asked with an ugly face.
The housekeeper was about to reply, but when he looked up, he found that Cai Rong was looking in the direction of Lian Ze, obviously the object of the inquiry was not himself, so he closed his mouth again.
"I also just knew that he came to Hangzhou, and I didn't know his purpose." Lian Ze's deep voice sounded in the stone room.
Qingyang squinted his eyes and said, "Ju Dove is a subordinate of Li Hongyi of the Tang Kingdom, and it is not surprising that Lu Yuan will deal with them. β
"Shall we take the opportunity to get rid of Ma Kongming?" Cai Rong said ruthlessly.
"I can't do that with my words alone." Lian Ze said in a deep voice: "He has entered the Grandmaster Realm, and if he wants to escape, I can't stop him at all, unless he mobilizes the army." β
"Uncle? Do you want to send an army to destroy him? Cai Rong looked at Cai Gao.
"Are you crazy?" Cai Gao said angrily: "It's very difficult for me to deal with Qian Hongyu right now, why do you want to provoke Lu Yuan?" β
"I see." Cai Rong snorted and lowered his head.
β¦β¦
In the early morning of the next day, when Lu Yuan saw Qian Yu again, he felt that his mental outlook was very different, and he looked radiant, and he could see at a glance that the results of his search for King Wu Yue yesterday were very good.
"Sir, Miss Du, you're finally here!" Qian Yu hurriedly ran out of the back door of the palace and pulled Lu Yuan towards the palace.
Along the way, Lu Yuan asked him about what happened last night, Qian Yu told him everything, and even Yu Wenxiao was also said by the way.
Lu Yuan shook his head, Cai Gao was so blatant, he thought that King Wu Yue had put up with him for a long time.
And I didn't expect Yao Jian to die like this, maybe he shouldn't have followed Yuwen Xiao in the first place.
Yuwen Xiao was also unlucky, helping Dai Mu deal with Cai Gao, but after the accident, Dai Mu ignored him, and I don't know what his current situation is, whether he escaped from the city smoothly.
"Your Highness, this is also a warning, Cai Gao acted without scruples, it is very likely that Cai Gao has Cai Gao's eyeliner in your palace, we need to clear them all before we can ensure your safety." Lu Yuan reminded.
Qian Yu smiled proudly: "Sir, don't worry, Xiao Wang has already cleared them all!" β
As they spoke, the three of them entered the study, and after Qian Yu ordered his subordinates to serve tea, he drove them all out.
"I don't know what method His Highness used?"
Lu Yuan sat down in the study under Qian Yu's beckoning, and Li Ruozhen sat beside him.
"It's very simple, this king drove away all the previous subordinates, including the housekeeper!" Qian Yu said with a smile: "The people now are all looking for Brother Wang, including five hundred guards!" β
ββ¦β¦ It's not a bad idea. Lu Yuan picked up the teacup, uncovered the corner of the teacup, and gently blew the hot air.
But he secretly shook his head in his heart, Qian Yu is too naΓ―ve, he did this, although Cai Gao's people are gone, they are all Qian Hongyu's people, and their words and deeds will also be monitored.
"Sir, does Brother Wang have full trust in me now?" Qian Yu asked expectantly.
Lu Yuan glanced at Li Ruozhen, and saw that she shook her head slightly, indicating that no one was eavesdropping outside, so he replied: "I don't think so." β
If Qian Yu is allowed to have this kind of thought, I am afraid that he will really become a prince of peace in the future, and Lu Yuan will certainly not let this kind of thing happen.
"Your Highness just wants His Highness to help him deal with Cai Gao at present, and when Cai Gao is cleaned up, it is likely that Your Highness will turn around and deal with His Highness again." Lu Yuan said leisurely.
"This ...... How could it be...... I feel that Brother Wang trusts me very much now. Qian Yu was a little difficult to accept.
"Has Your Highness forgotten the fate of the previous King Wu Yue?" Lu Yuan reminded coldly.
Qian Yu sat silently in his chair, and after a long time, he spoke: "Then what should I do?" β
"With the temperament of today's monarch, as long as His Royal Highness is still the respect of the prince, he will inevitably be suspicious of the monarch, so His Royal Highness only has two choices."
"Which two options?"
"Either give up the position of the prince, leave Wu Yue, and become an ordinary rich man."
"What about the other one?"
"The other path is very difficult and difficult, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the road to heaven." After speaking, Lu Yuan picked up the teacup again and continued to blow the hot air.
Qian Yu was not a fool, and immediately understood what Lu Yuan was referring to.
He laughed dryly: "Let's talk about this later." β
"That's right, Right now, Your Highness should take advantage of the current opportunity to develop his own power, so that no matter how you choose in the future, it will be easier."
"Yes, yes, I have long wanted to develop my own power, please teach me, sir."
Qian Yu is actually very envious of Cai Gao, a marquis can achieve his status, even Brother Wang can't easily deal with him, wouldn't it be much safer if he had that strength?
Lu Yuan stood up, paced a few steps in the study, and said, "The first step now is to completely change His Highness's reputation, and at the same time, he must be able to hit Cai Gao, so that he can gain the support of the king!" β
"So what should I do? Please sir teach me quickly! Qian Yu said eagerly.
"To deal with Cai Gao, you have to come step by step, his left and right hands are Cai Shu and Cai Rong respectively, we might as well pick one to deal with first!"
"And Lian Ze!" Qian Yu said hatefully.
"Lian Ze is just a thug, and it won't have much effect on him."
"Who did the gentleman say we should deal with first?"
"I don't know who has a worse reputation, Cai Rong or Cai Shu?" Lu Yuan asked.
"Naturally, it's Cai Rong, and no one in Hangzhou is more domineering than him."
"Okay, let's deal with Cai Rong first."
"Okay, okay." Qian Yu couldn't help nodding and said, "That kid has always been sneering at me before, and I have long wanted to clean him up!" β
"However, if His Highness wants to deal with him, he still needs to have a group of capable people under his command, otherwise he may suffer a loss when the time comes."
"Can't those guards?"
"No, Cai Rong must have a master of the Shadow Regiment, the conflict between us and Cai Rong is just a skirmish, suppress him and teach him a lesson, those guards may not have much effect, but may make His Highness suffer."
Qian Yu said with a bitter face: "But where will I find a master for a while?" Is it okay to use money to recruit some? β
"I'm afraid it's going to be hard to recruit for a while." Lu Yuan immediately vetoed it.
Qian Yu lowered his head and remained silent, looking a little depressed.
Lu Yuan looked at Li Ruozhen, she immediately understood, and said, "Senior brother, since there is a shortage of manpower, why don't you write a letter and call the other junior brothers?" β
