"You said it was you, and even I didn't see it clearly. That was too fast, this Boss Li, I don't look at it simply. This time, our brother, maybe he got into trouble. ”

Looking at the empty tavern door, Wu Qian thought thoughtfully and whispered to himself.

Even Wu Yun, who was sitting next to him, didn't hear this voice clearly, leaned his face closer, and asked, "Brother, what are you talking about?" I didn't hear it. ”

"It's best if you don't hear it. Forget it, it's still too much to think about. Let's do this well for Boss Li seriously, and use people's money to prevent disasters for others, which is justified. As long as we have the money to collect, it's not easy to care about him. Right? ”

Wu Qian picked up a peanut on the table, peeled it off and threw it into his mouth, and smiled at Wu Yun.

Although there was a smile on his face, Wu Gan's heart was filled with an inexplicable fear. They all caused it themselves, and it seems that this matter really needs to be handled carefully.

"Brother, what kind of business did you say Boss Li was doing, he was so rich that he even had to buy ......"

"Ouch"

However, the stupid Wu Yun did not see through the danger here, took a big sip of the wine glass, and then spoke loudly without concealment, almost saying the word salt mine. Wu Gan was so frightened that he stretched out his legs under the table and kicked him hard.

Wu Yun didn't finish speaking, he was hit by his brother's heavy kick, where can he still care about small talk, hugged his feet, and shouted.

At this moment, the quiet tavern, which had not had many guests, turned their heads towards them at the same time.

"Boss, check out!"

When Wu Qian saw it, he was afraid that he would stay here any longer, Wu Yun's mouth was bad, so he made a big move and called out the tavern owner.

"Brother, aren't we going to wait for someone here?" Wu Yun was a little inexplicable.

Ignoring Wu Yun, Wu Qian paid for the wine, and walked away on his own.

Although it was strange in his heart, Wu Yun had to follow closely.

However, after Wu Gan walked a few steps, he stopped again, and after stopping, he turned his head and whispered: "You go to our house and wait, if Boss Li comes, you will entertain you and wait for me to come back." I'm waiting for those people here. ”

Wu Yun naturally obediently responded to his brother's words.

His elder brother was much older than his peers when he was young, and Wu Yun was also used to obeying Wu Gan's orders.

"Wait." Seeing Wu Yun walk away in response, Wu Gan ran a few steps over, and told with a heavy face: "Wu Yun, you'd better control your mouth, in front of Boss Li, you only care about your life and don't talk much." Beware of the misfortune coming from the mouth. ”

Speaking the last few words, a mixture of fear and coldness flashed on Wu Gan's face.

......

Li Qi circled the room several times, his mind constantly flashing about the salt mine, his brow furrowed a little tighter, and the expression on his face became more gloomy.

"Boss."

The door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a figure rushed in, followed by a loud scream. The tone was eager.

Li Qi raised his eyes and saw that it was Xiao Liu. With a panicked look, he ran in from outside, sweating profusely.

"Say something slowly, what's the panic!" Richie scolded in a low voice.

The room he lived in was the innermost room in the Yuelai Inn. However, the partition wall has ears, not to mention the mission they came to Xishan County, how can people know.

Seeing that Li Qi's face was full of coldness, Li Liu, who ran into the room, was out of breath, holding on to the table, and didn't dare to shout loudly.

"Say it! What's up? ”

With such a nervous appearance, Li Qi knew that it must be related to the third prince, where did he dare to slack off. Half paid, and didn't hear Li Liu's voice, Li Qi couldn't help but urge.

That Li Liu stood aside, heard this, hurriedly took a few steps forward, walked next to Li Qi, and said, "Boss, there is news from the capital." ”

"Wait"

Li Qi stretched out his hand and interrupted Li Xiaoliu's words. Quietly walked to the door, looked out, closed the door, and then walked over, and with a round of eyes, let him continue.

Seeing that Li Qi was so cautious, Li Xiaoliu naturally didn't dare to be careless, leaned closer to Li Qi, and whispered:

"Boss, the third prince sent someone to deliver the news. You weren't there when you came over just now. Leave this letter for me to pass on to you. Say it's urgent, give. ”

After speaking, Li Xiaoliu took out a letter in his arms and handed it over.

For so long, the three princes have always handed over the news to their subordinates and dictated the task. The use of letters can only show that this news is extraordinary.

Li Qi's heart sank, he didn't dare to delay, took the letter, picked up a knife from the table, cut the fire paint on the envelope, and dropped a piece of letter paper from it, which fell to the ground, and Li Qi picked it up.

When Xiao Liu saw it, he also came over to see what was written inside.

Li Qi remained silent, but his heart was fluttering, and he walked to the window.

opened the letter and read it carefully, and saw that Li Xiaoliu also stretched his neck and visited him. Richie glanced at the brazier on the table, walked over a few steps, and threw the letter paper into the brazier.

In an instant, the temperature of the charcoal fire was so hot that the letter paper spit out blue flames, which quickly curled and turned into ashes in an instant.

Li Xiaoliu originally wanted to probe to see what the third prince's letter said, but he didn't expect Li Qi to keep such a hand. Seeing that the letter paper flashed in the brazier, except for a few burnt yellow corners, the place with the words in the middle had long been burned to ashes, so he had to give up and retreated.

Li Qi read the letter, frowned, and thought in his heart how to complete the task given by the third prince. I didn't notice Li Xiaoliu's movements at all.

"Boss, if it's okay, then I'll go out. I'm going to have to change shifts at that place. ”

Seeing that the look on Li Qi's face was getting more and more ugly, Li Xiaoliu hurriedly smeared oil on the soles of his feet and slipped away.

Li Xiaoliu's words, Li Qi didn't seem to hear them at all, let alone see when Li Xiaoliu left.

In Li Yu's letter, it was said that the emperor's illness had come and gone over and over these days, and it was not accurate. Not only that, but the situation in the capital seems to be becoming more and more unfavorable for the three princes. The prince's henchmen began to carry out large-scale activities, led by several old ministers of the former dynasty, and repeatedly gave the emperor a notebook, counting several major things that the prince had done since he took office, and wanted the emperor to remove the punishment of the prince and let the prince return to the position of the East Palace.

What's more, in order to make their arguments more credible, those old ministers actually found a master who was proficient in metaphysics. On the occasion of the emperor's banquet for the birthday of the concubine, he invited the ministers, and said that the prince was the reincarnation of the stars in the sky, which was beneficial and harmless to the country's society, and this time the incident was framed by people with ulterior motives.

Not only that, but they also pointed the spearhead of framing the crown prince behind their backs, intentionally or unintentionally, at the third prince Li Yu. One by one, they knelt on the spot and begged the emperor to issue an edict to retract the intention of abolishing the crown prince.

Indeed, among the courts, Li Yu is the most likely person who wants to abolish the crown prince and seize the imperial power.
