Chapter 180: Kill Chen Chao!
Chapter 184: Kill Chen Chao!
······
The mansion of the Ministry of Works, Shangshu Wu Building.
It was already late at night, Wu Lou had already slept for a while, and woke up halfway to find that his concubine Liu was sitting on the bed.
There was something strange about him.
"Madam, why are you sitting here in a daze if you don't rest so late?"
"Ah, it's nothing, let's rest first. ”
The Liu family is really in a daze, according to the time, the people she sent to clean up the Chen Dynasty should have come back a long time ago.
Why is it that after so long, there has been no movement at all?
Could something be wrong?
She was a little worried.
Although it failed, at most the people she sent were cleaned up, and even the final result would be miserable, but for her, she would not have any trouble.
The son of a general who has no backer, she is still not in the eyes of the concubine of the Ministry of Works.
Even if you know that people are sent by me, what can you do to me?
Moreover, once the matter is big and your master knows, your Chen Dynasty will only be even worse.
Forget it, don't think about it, sleep.
Liu Shi lay down.
Wu Lou saw Liu lying down, he also closed his eyes, ready to continue sleeping, there are still a bunch of things waiting for him to do tomorrow.
At this time, I didn't have the heart to caress Liu.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the room, but Wu Lou didn't hear it for the first time, but Liu Shi heard it clearly.
She sat up.
It was the people he sent who came back.
And they succeeded!
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but be happy.
The sound is getting closer and louder.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
Wu Lou was awakened.
"Master, the palace has sent someone.
The butler's voice sounded immediately, very hurriedly.
Even if this voice was peaceful, Wu Lou didn't dare to slack off.
The palace must have sent someone so late, there must be something big.
He hurriedly put on his clothes and left the room.
Soon, I came to the courtyard.
"Wu Shangshu, the monarch has issued an edict to summon you to enter the palace immediately, and there must be no mistake. ”
The person who came was Zhao Fu, the chief eunuch, which made Wu Lou even more sure that the matter was not small.
Otherwise, the monarch will directly send the little eunuch to pass it on.
He didn't dare to slack off, and motioned to Zhao Fu for him to arrive later.
After returning to the room, putting on the official uniform, he got into the sedan car prepared by the housekeeper and went straight to the palace.
······
The affairs in the palace, the Liu family is not very interested, she only cares about the people sent to deal with the Chen Dynasty tonight, why there is no movement yet.
As soon as Wu Lou left, she sent someone to inquire about the situation.
Then, she went to Wu Fei.
"Fei'er, it's my mother, have you slept?"
Knocking lightly on the door, hearing some impatient voices inside, Liu asked.
Then, push the door and enter.
Wu Fei didn't fall asleep because of the injuries on his body.
"Why are you here?"
Although the person who came was his mother, Wu Fei was a little displeased because of the pain in the wound, and he didn't even call his mother.
Liu is not surprised, he is used to it.
"Fei'er, the people sent by my mother to deal with the Chen Dynasty, there is still no news, my mother is a little worried, did they miss out?"
Liu sat down on the edge of the bed.
Wu Fei couldn't help but snort coldly, "If you miss, you will send someone again, and if you don't kill Chen Chao, I am unwilling." Besides, he is a person who has no backing, what do you have to worry about, are you afraid of being exposed?"
"Fei'er, that's not what my mother meant, okay, you can recuperate with peace of mind, don't be angry, my mother will help you take revenge." Liu comforted Wu Fei.
Wu Fei glared at Liu Shi and said, "It's better to hurry, I'm a little impatient to wait, if you can't do it well, I'll tell my father and let him do it." ”
"Fei'er, your father has been busy with official business recently, don't alarm him, he has just been summoned to the palace again. ”
"Then you hurry. ”
······
The Imperial Palace, the Hall of Political Harmony.
Wu Lou knelt in the hall.
The atmosphere in the main hall was a little silent, and the monarch's face was obviously not good.
Moreover, what made him wonder was why Chen Chao was here.
And outside the main hall, why is there a gentleman who is not from the palace, and there are two black-clothed people lying on the ground, as if they are dead corpses!
What happened and what does it have to do with you?
Wu Lou was full of confusion.
"Wu Lou, do you know why I summoned you to the palace so late?"
Qin Zheng finally spoke, and he said in a deep voice.
Wu Lou's kneeling body bowed slightly, and said, "Return to China, the minister doesn't know." ”
"I don't know, do I really don't know, or do I don't know?"
Qin Zheng's voice was a little heavier.
Wu Lou beat a drum in his heart, but still replied, "Minister, I really don't know." ”
"Well, I'll believe you don't know. ”
Qin Zheng looked at Chen Chao and said, "Chen Chao, you come to me." ”
Wu Lou looked at Chen Chao, and his heart was even more puzzled.
Chen Chao snorted, looked at Wu Lou and said, "Wu Shangshu, do you recognize me?"
Wu Lou nodded lightly and said, "When I was not the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, I had seen Chen Gongzi once, so I naturally recognized it." ”
He was not so polite to Chen Chao.
Chen Chao didn't mind, how could he say that Wu Lou was also a scholar of the Ministry of Industry and an official, and he was now just a grass citizen.
Chen Chaowei nodded and said, "Wu Shangshu came from the mansion, it's hard to see what happened to your Wu mansion, don't you know? Your son Wu Fei was injured, so you didn't ask him what happened?"
Wu Lou was stunned, his son was injured?
"The little Wu Fei has always been playful, and he has limited meetings on weekdays, but today he hasn't seen him all day, and he hasn't heard anyone talk about his injury, what does Chen Gongzi mean by this?"
Chen Chaodao, "Okay, since Wu Shangshu said he didn't know, then I'll tell Wu Shangshu about it."
Chen Chao recounted in detail what happened in the Silver Hook Casino during the day and his assassination, of course, there were many elements of adding oil and vinegar and exaggeration.
Wu Lou was extremely shocked when he heard this.
His own son dared to insult General Chen Hai, this is really daring.
However, after hearing Chen Chao say that Wu Fei was beaten badly, he was a little distressed.
A simple lesson is it, what to do.
But when he heard that his concubine Liu sent someone to kill Chen Chao, Wu Lou was frightened.
He knew that if this thing was true, it would be a big trouble.
If the Chen Dynasty really lost the protection of the general and the second ancestor who was out of breath, then naturally there was nothing, but when it came to the problem, this guy was something that the monarch would not dare to provoke easily.
The backers behind the people, now speaking of it, are even more deterrent than General Chen Hai.
That is enough to make the Ming Dynasty completely turmoil Lin Zheng, the king of Changlin.
Isn't his own concubine looking for death if he does this?
"Chen Gongzi, is there any misunderstanding here?"
Wu Lou didn't dare to admit such a big thing, even if he was the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, he knew that he couldn't afford it.
It's a fatal thing.
"Wu Shangshu, you mean that I am framing your Wu family, okay, since you think so, then I, Chen Chao, have nothing to say. ”
Saying that, Chen Chao bowed his hand to Qin Zheng and said, "Monarch, since Lord Wu thinks that I am framing the Wu family, then it is better for me to frame him. ”
With a resolute face, without any hesitation, he turned around and left.
Qin Zheng's face sank suddenly, he wanted to rush over and strangle Chen Chao alive, but he couldn't.
The anger in my heart is about to burst out.
But in the end, he just shouted two words.
"Wu Lou. ”
