"I...... Because ......"

"Because he, the prefect of Hecheng, was the one who helped him sit on it." Lu Wan's cold voice was like a clear spring in the mountains, interrupting the man's stammering words.

Huo Hai was dumbfounded, he didn't dare to look at Lu Juan, this person seemed to be able to spy on people's hearts, as if he couldn't hide any secrets from him.

Li Yuan's eyes were gloomy, and the man's weak expression confirmed Lu Wan's conjecture just now.

It's true.

Who can do it to this extent, thinking of this, Li Yuan shuddered.

......

As the sun went down, it was getting dark, and a bonfire was lit in the camp.

Huo Hai and Jia Qiang were locked up and strictly guarded.

Li Yuan sat on the desk and wrote down the events of these days.

Lu Wan opened the tent door, and a breeze followed, and the candle flame made a "bang" sound, flashing a spark.

Lu Juan approached the table, and Li Yuan just stopped writing.

Looking at the shocking content on the fold, his eyes were full of gloom, and his eyes were solemn and deep.

Lu Wan quietly poured him a cup of hot tea.

Touching the teacup, Li Yuan couldn't drink it.

"It was originally a secret to chase a huge amount of money, but now it involves so many people and secrets." Li Yuan smiled bitterly.

"In Huangcheng, the prefect Yuan Kai is fake, he is the one who exchanged the civet cat for the prince, and now the prefect of Hecheng is also the pawn of the other party, and it feels like a story when such a thing is said.

I don't know what Your Majesty will think when he sees this letter."

"You're glad you found out about their plot, aren't you?"

"I suddenly felt terrible, I couldn't imagine what kind of opponent we were facing." Li Yuan stretched out his hand and pressed the corner of his forehead, and his headache was splitting.

"You just need to listen to the heavens what you find, and I believe that Emperor Xia will have his judgment."

Li Yuan nodded.

Indeed, now the development of things is out of his control.

"It's just that in this way, we want to avoid the conflict between the court and the alien race that may be disrupted." Li Yuan was a little helpless, leaning back, leaning on the cushion, and a trace of fatigue lingered between his eyebrows.

It is a tactful thing to be disrupted, Emperor Xia wants to clear up the civil strife, and the alien race is now controlled by the Fu clan, and it is very likely that he will choose to fight directly.

"It's not there yet, and it could be a turnaround."

Compared to Li Yuan's depression, Lu Juan looked very relaxed, and the corners of his mouth even outlined an arc.

"How?" The man raised an eyebrow slightly.

"I thought about Yuan Kai before, maybe there will be such a result today, and it turns out that it is true. If it is just the handiwork of the Fu clan, then the imperial court will choose to suppress it directly, which is understandable.

But now that the situation has changed, the people behind it can even have direct access to such things as official appointments, and can even easily install a fourth-grade official to take office."

"Could this kind of ability be something that the Fu clan can do?" Lu Wan sneered.

"You mean the Fu clan is also a pawn." Li Yuan's eyes lit up.

Yes, they had doubted it before, and now that Huo Hai's incident came out, didn't it just prove that their conjecture was correct!

Lu Wan pinched the tea lid and stirred the tea foam unhurriedly.

"The new emperor's accession to the throne is equivalent to reshuffling the cards, why did he ask you to hunt on behalf of the sky, isn't it just to let you clear this pool of troubled waters for him?"

"Yes, knives lurking in the shadows are more terrifying than open enemies."
