Chapter 646: Reason (I)

"It seems that what you found in the Great Prince's Mansion, we will have to wait a little longer to hear it!" Li Zijun seemed to be about to say something to Dubov, but at this moment, he was slightly stunned, and turned his gaze to the door of the private room with a wry smile.

After a while, there was a noisy sound of footsteps in the corridor, and six or seven people stopped outside the door of Li Zijun's private room.

"Dangdang Dang, Grand Duke, can you admire your face and meet the little woman?" a woman's sweet and greasy voice came in from outside the door.

"You really can't talk about people behind your back! No, just as Miss Lucy was mentioned, she rushed over with someone!"

"'Monkey', guess what: if I say 'no', will Miss Lucy be annoyed and killed?"

If you don't want to see the little girl, the little girl will never open your 'door'!" Lucy answered Li Zijun's question very ambiguously outside the door.

"But you're not going to leave lightly, are you?"

"Or the Grand Duke, you understand the little girl's mind!"

"Hey!'Monkey', go open the door, young master, I don't want to be forced to go home by a woman!"

The 'monkey' smiled wryly and got up and walked over. As soon as he opened the door, Li Zijun smelled a pungent aroma, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Thank you!" Lucy whispered a thank you to the monkey, then walked into the room and sat down swaggering across from Li Zijun.

"I wish you had climbed through the window so I could sit down and 'you're the father of the baby in my womb!'" Lucy said, gently touching her belly.

Dubov didn't know that Lucy was joking, and thought of what Li Zijun had just asked him. He couldn't help but change his face!

"Miss is obviously young, how can she be pregnant?!Sue Sù Benjue: Which quack doctor gave Miss you such a diagnosis? Benjue is going to tear down his sign!" Li Zijun glanced at Dubov, who was sweating profusely. put on a posture of not admitting it.

I know I can't fool you! Lucy used her talking eyes to successfully show Li Zijun a 'full of amorousness':

"I don't know if the Grand Duke can look at our past friendships. Sell me a favor?"

"I have a bad memory! I don't remember any other interactions between us except for the unpleasant contact with Brother Ling!" Li Zijun had already roughly guessed what Lucy wanted to say, and directly drew a line with her.

Lucy didn't expect that Li Zijun would treat herself like this for the sake of someone she just met, and she was immediately stunned!

"Can I talk to the Grand Duke alone?" After a moment of silence, Lucy made such a request to Li Zijun.

"Baldwin, 'Monkey', protect Dubov and wait for me in the next room!" Li Zijun looked at Lucy for a while. Then he smiled and nodded to Dubov.

"Archduke, you're a little too careful, aren't you?"

"Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years! I always firmly believe in this truth, and now you can say anything directly!"

"It's rare for us to have such a chance to get together alone, doesn't the Grand Duke want to stay with the little girl for a little longer?"

"It's hurtful to tell the truth, so I'd better stop saying it!"

"It really hurts!"

"Grand Duke, how did you hand over Dubov to me?" Li Zijun's indifference forced Lucy to go straight to the topic.

"Dubov is already my subordinate! I hope you will raise your noble hand and let him go!"

"You don't have to talk about that?"

"I've already told you everything I can 'talk'!"

"Of course, I'm still curious about the reason why you have a grudge with Dubov! Just looking at you today, I'm afraid you won't satisfy my curiosity!"

"What do you know?" listened to Li Zijun's words. Lucy's face became tense.

"What should I know?"

"Don't worry, I don't know anything!Otherwise, I wouldn't have to waste time here with you!" Li Zijun glanced at Lucy's slightly pale fingers and waved his hand at her with a smile.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you know. It's going to make it easier for us to work together!" After the initial panic, Lucy gradually regained her composure.

"I want to hear about it!"

"You still know!"

"Shouldn't I feel a little frustrated when it's so easy for you to see through?!" Li Zijun sighed slightly.

"I have to say. You have a lot of old spiciness, and cunning that far surpasses your peers, until now. I haven't been able to guess how much you know about it, and I don't want to go any further!"

"Farewell!" Li Zijun arched his hand to Lucy 'for his own cleverness'.

"Who said I was leaving?"

"Didn't you say you didn't want to continue guessing?"

"Just because I don't guess doesn't mean I'm leaving!"

"And what do you mean?"

"How about we talk about business?"

"Use my people to talk to me about business?"

"Grand Duke. Such a big treasure, you can't swallow it alone!"

"My appetite has always been good, how do you know that I can't swallow it!" Hearing Lucy mention the treasure, Li Zijun immediately became interested, but on the surface he still maintained that calm scoundrel appearance!

"On land, I believe you have such strength! But in the water," Lucy looked at Li Zijun and pouted:

"I don't think you can really swallow this treasure!"

"At least you can't hide it from everyone! Once this matter is revealed, your best outcome is to be a 'God of Wealth'!"

"Are you threatening me?" Lucy's words immediately made Li Zijun's face sink.

"Maybe I will do things that harm others and benefit myself, but if I harm others and benefit myself, I will not be interested!"

"Actually, I'd really like you to open and get this treasure than you. It's just hard, especially if you're hiding it from other people, it's even harder!"

"Why don't we work together to get what we need?"

"Do you still want to sue me: You only need one thing, and you can leave the rest to me?"

"You still know! The Emperor's 'Tangram' is destined to be obtained! You see if this will work, we will go into the water together to investigate, and whoever sees it first will be counted. Isn't that fair?"

'Tangram'? What is that? Li Zijun's heart moved, and his brow furrowed.

"What if we see it together?"

"It's not big, but it's not small! After all these years, at least half of it should have been buried in the mud! We're cleaning it in two directions. If it's really that coincidental that we see that 'tangram' together, then we must give it up!"

"Miss Lucy is so generous!"

"Don't say that, if the Tangram were to you, I would like to get half of the treasure?

"Black-hearted ghost!" Li Zijun looked at Lucy and scolded with a smile.

"So, the Grand Duke agreed to my terms?"

"Do I have any other choice?!, but before you cooperate with us, can you show your sincerity?"

"Please rest assured! Before I came, Dubov was cleared of the charge! Are you satisfied with such sincerity?" Lucy looked at Li Zijun and smiled:

"Do you want to show us your sincerity as well?"

"You've been saying 'you', can I know: 'Who are you'?"

"At least we are not your enemies!"

"Miss, the word 'yet' is used very cleverly!"

"No need to explain! I'm not naïve enough to that point!" Li Zijun raised his hand to stop Lucy.

"Tomorrow, 'you' can come to my house to meet with Dubov, but only if I am present!"

"Tomorrow, do we need to talk to him tomorrow?"

"Whatever you want, you can only meet him tomorrow!" Li Zijun said, raising his hand and pointing to the door.

"Will Dubov still be alive tomorrow?" asked Lucy as she got up and took two steps, turned to look at Li Zijun.

As long as Dubov doesn't suddenly become 'crazy', you will definitely see a 'lively' him tomorrow!"

What kind of treasure is this, worthy of such groveling accommodating Lucy? Li Zijun fell into deep thought.

"Dubov, should you have something to say to me?" Back in the mansion, Li Zijun took the three of them directly to his study, he looked at Dubov and asked in a low voice.

"This, this"

"If this makes you feel embarrassed, you can leave the Duke's Palace now. Your case is over, you're free!"

"Young master, I was wrong! I said, I said everything!" At this time, Dubov had no last illusion, and told Li Zijun the real reason why he was framed by Lucy.

In fact, Dubov was a boat boss, a boat boss who made a living cleaning rivers and digging up sunken ships.

About a year ago, Dubov inadvertently unearthed a corner of an ancient shipwreck while leading people on an underwater dredging process.

Encountering a shipwreck was a normal thing for the dredging crew, and at first, Dubov didn't pay much attention to it.

It wasn't until Dubov discovered a section of iron chain from the wreck, an unusually strong, rusty chain, that he changed his mind about the wreck.

In order to further determine the origin of the shipwreck, Dubov used a portable tool to remove a section of iron chain and secretly hide it on his body. Afterwards, he reburied the wreck.

Immediately after going ashore, Dubov found an old friend and showed him the chain.

In doing so, Dubov hoped to get some information about the wreck from his old friend, and on the other hand, he also planned to dig the wreck with his old friend.

But what Dubov never expected was that his old friend, who was far above him in strength and knowledge, suddenly disappeared the day after he saw this chain! (To be continued......
