Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

It serves no purpose other than embarrassment.

Silence, still silence.

In the end, it was so silent that many people felt that it was difficult to breathe, and felt that if they kept silent, they would suffocate to death.

Finally, someone raised his head and broke the silence.

"Old Wang, you are our backbone, what do you think we should do? Us, are we really not going to avenge Lord Lu and the others?"

When the others heard the words, they all looked at Wang Wenru quickly.

They have nothing to do with themselves, so they can only hope for Wang Wenru.

Wang Wenru is old, has a lot of experience, has read a lot, and has made many insidious ideas. They still admire Wang Wenru.

Moreover, Wang Wenru is the censor, and his image to the outside world has always been that of speaking out, so no one knows what kind of insidious old guy Wang Wenru is.

Wang Wenru was silent for a while, and then he said: "Shen Lian is too scary, and... I also sent someone to question Li Kuiqing, Lu Xie was indeed insulting and invading his parents..."

"He did go too far...I ask you, if I scold your parents, would you want to kill me?"

Everyone glanced at Wang Wenru and subconsciously shook their heads.

How could it be possible to kill someone just because of being scolded?

Anyway, scolding will not lose a piece of meat.

As long as the benefit is for oneself, you can scold at will, and it is not impossible for them to join in scolding together.

Even with more benefits, they can bring their parents in front of each other and let the other party scold them.

If you are scolded, you will be scolded. For them, interests are the most important thing.

Wang Wenru frowned and said, "What?"

At this time, everyone suddenly realized what Wang Wenru meant, and they nodded quickly.

Only then was Wang Wenru satisfied.

He said: "Think about it differently. If Lu Xie insults your parents, you will kill Lu Xie too! So it is understandable for Shen Lian to kill Lu Xie!"

"Of course... Lu Xie is also our partner, and I'm not saying that he will be fine, but this time, he really did something wrong."

"As the saying goes, it's better to settle enemies than tie them up. All nations come to court. With Shen Lian's current power and the influence of the King of Chu, you all know that if Shen Lian can turn hostility into friendship with us and become our partner... I think, You should also know how many benefits there are."

When everyone heard Wang Wenru's words, their eyes suddenly lit up.

They subconsciously looked at Wang Wenru.

"So, what Elder Wang means is..."

Wang Wenru said indifferently: "I will find time to invite Shen Lian to come over and have a good talk with Shen Lian. There is not much hatred between us. I will find a way to turn hostility into friendship, and even let him abandon King Chu and join us. "

"As for Lu Xie...everyone put in some effort to bury him richly and take care of his family, it's not in vain for our colleagues."

When everyone heard Wang Wenru's words, their eyes suddenly flickered.

Make friends with Shen Lian, and turn the fight with Shen Lian into jade silk.

They really didn't think it was possible.

Compared with Lu Xielai, Shen Lian certainly has higher rights and status, and can bring them more benefits!
If they could really pull Shen Lian to the prince's camp, what would Lu Xie be? They could completely forget about this person's existence.

So for a while, many people echoed, thinking that this is simply the perfect plan.

Seeing this, Wang Wenru said, "Let's do it this way, I will invite Shen Lian, and then one day, I will also find a few of you who can talk to Shen Lian, and we will chat with Shen Lian together. chat."

Someone whispered: "Then Shen Lian is so proud and so loyal to the King of Chu, can he come? Can he really betray the King of Chu?"

The corners of Wang Wenru's mouth twitched slightly, and he said to himself: "Anyone who does not betray another person's conditions, it means that the benefits are not enough. Don't worry, I have a way, and he will definitely come."

When everyone heard this, they were relieved.

After all, Wang Wenru, an old bastard, has never let them down.

In this way, the original crusade meeting against Shen Lian directly turned into a recruitment meeting for Shen Lian.

As for Lu Xie?

Who is Lu Xie?

Why don't we know each other?
The reality... is so cruel.

People die like a lamp goes out, what good can a dead person bring them?Of course, Shen Lian, who had a very high status and power, made them even more envious.

After a quarter of an hour, these officials left one after another.

Soon, only Wang Wenru was left in the hall.

Wang Wenru closed his eyes, and the warm smile on his face disappeared, replaced by an extremely stiff expression.

After being silent for a while, he suddenly opened his mouth: "You heard it all, we will act tomorrow night, I don't care what you do, you can plan it yourself."

In the empty hall, suddenly, a black shadow appeared in front of Wang Wenru.

There is a crescent moon pattern embroidered on the heart of this black shadow.

"So willing? Don't you feel bad? After all, it's been hard work for more than ten years." A hoarse laughter came out.

Wang Wenru still didn't open his eyes, his voice was devoid of any emotion, as calm as a voice coming from a puppet: "To Shen Lian, it's worth it."

"Ah."

The black shadow laughed, said nothing more, and soon disappeared.

And Wang Wenru, with his eyes closed like this, gave people the feeling that he had lost his breath.

…………

The next day, early in the morning.

Dali Temple Yamen.

Shen Lian stretched his waist, and just arrived at the Yamen of Dali Temple to meet the person who was recently arrested. When Li Wencheng saw him, Ah Bao greeted him.

"My lord, someone has sent an invitation, and I want to invite you to the banquet."

Shen Lian entered the office room, sat down, and said in surprise, "Who?"

Who would invite himself to the banquet at this juncture?
Abao looked at Shen Lian, and said in a deep voice, "Censor, Wang Wenru."

"Wang Wenru?"

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows directly.

He said, "But the Wang Wenru that Li Kuiqing was talking about?"

Abao nodded hurriedly: "That's him, the backbone of Li Kuiqing's faction."

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes, and said with a smile: "This is interesting. I haven't looked for him yet, but he came to look for me."

"My lord, shall we go?"

Abao said: "The servants of the palace are still waiting for the reply from the lord."

Shen Lian thought for a while and said, "There's nothing to go to, I'm not familiar with him, and this old bastard must not hold his fart well, there's no need to go to his home court."

Ah Bao was not surprised, nodded and was about to answer.

"grown ups."

And at this moment, Ali, another Jinyi guard, suddenly rushed in.

He looked at Shen Lian and said, "My lord, I have found out what you asked me to investigate before."

Shen Lian's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he hurriedly said, "How is it?"

Ali said: "We first found the former Taoist priests of Tai Chi Temple, and then went to the Ministry of Rites to check the registration book that was taken away from Tai Chi Temple when Tai Chi Temple was banned."

"Then we compared them one by one, and found that before the rebellion of Wuxing Qiwang, there were no wandering Taoist priests who had been to Tai Chi Temple, so there was no one who fit the Taoist status that the adults said."

"but….…"

Ali changed his voice and said, "Although there are no Taoist priests, we have found a believer who lived in Tai Chi Temple for half a month during that time."

"His reason was that he had nightmares for a long time and felt that something unclean was haunting him, so he went to Tai Chi Temple to purify himself. During that time, he often met Wu Yazi from Tai Chi Temple."

Shen Lian's eyes flashed, it didn't matter if he was a Taoist or not.

The important thing is that during that period of time, there were non-Tai Chi people!

And this person is definitely related to the Big Dipper Society and the Big Dipper Seven Stars!

So he hurriedly asked, "Who is that person?"

Ali looked at Shen Lian, and said in a deep voice, "Censor, Wang Wenru!"

Outside the Yamen of Dali Temple.

When Shen Lian heard Ali's words, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he felt that the originally messy threads in his mind were directly connected together at this moment.

Originally irrelevant things, noisy and confusing things, directly gathered together.

The dense fog in front of him suddenly dissipated.

"Wang Wenru, it turned out to be him..."

The corner of Shen Lian's mouth suddenly turned up: "But if it's him, then these things I haven't figured out are all reasonable."

"It should be him, indeed it should be him!"

Shen Lian suddenly laughed.

Ali, however, was puzzled by Monk Zhang Er.

He scratched his head, just because of Wang Wenru's shock, his mind was full of questions.

He looked at Shen Lian and said, "Sir, what? That man is Wang Wenru, shouldn't he be surprised?"

"Surprised, why should you be surprised?"

Shen Lian chuckled lightly, and said, "If it wasn't for him, then I really couldn't figure it out, but if it was him, then everything would make sense."

"Ah!" Ali was stunned.

Abao was also a little puzzled.

Shen Lian was in a good mood, so he explained: "Your Majesty, the matter of letting me control Dali Temple for the time being did not happen in a day or two, and a lot of things happened in the middle."

"But their troubles have increased in the past two days, which is obviously a problem."

"If they are really dissatisfied, if they are really afraid of me, then they should play it immediately after His Majesty gave the order. In this case, Wanbang will come down, and my rights have not yet gained a firm foothold. They still have a lot of room for manipulation .”

"But they didn't do this! This shows that they have a lot of fear of me. This fear is the deterrent force of His Royal Highness, King Chu, so that they dare not directly attack me."

Ah Bao and Ali thought for a while, then nodded suddenly.

Shen Lian continued: "In the past two days, they suddenly attacked me, and sent Lu and those two people to put their ideas into practice. According to what I just said, there is definitely a problem."

"The best time is not to do it, but to do it when my status is not under any threat. This obviously makes no sense."

"This is very weird. It seems that I am afraid that I, Shen Lian, will not know. It seems that I have sent people here to kill me..."

"This is an unreasonable thing, and I couldn't figure it out before."

Shen Lian paused, and said: "Because in my opinion, no matter which dynasty or generation, there should be a limit to the stupidity of those who can serve as officials in the court. Lu Xie and Li Kuiqing are really Stupid beyond my imagination."

"But now, after knowing that the core figure in their faction is Wang Wenru, and Wang Wenru has something to do with Wu Yazi, I can sort out all this."

Ali asked: "Then... what does your lord mean?"

Shen Lian chuckled, and said, "Don't you understand yet? I've already said that the people who were by Wu Yazi's side that day definitely had something to do with Beidouhui or Beichen."

"Perhaps, Wang Wenru is not necessarily a member of the Beidou Society, or a subordinate of Beichen...or..."

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes and said, "Maybe it's Beichen himself. After all, Beichen controlled Wu Yazi for a few days."

When Xugou and Sishe heard the words, their expressions changed.

However, before they could say anything, Shen Lian said again: "Don't think about it, if Wang Wenru didn't do these things, then maybe he really is Beichen himself, after all, no one knows who Beichen is."

"But now, after he has done these things, it is obvious that he is declaring war on our Chu Palace, so it should not be Beichen. It is too late for Beichen to hide from our Chu Palace. How dare he attract my attention so high-profile."

"However, this Wang Wenru definitely has something to do with Beichen! Think about it, on the front foot, I, Shen Lian, took advantage of the rebellion of the five surnames and Qiwang, and just caused Beichen a big loss, causing the Beidou Society to lose a lot of power. On the back foot, Wang Wenru and the others He sent that bad-tempered person Lu Xie to surround me... With my old bastard, Wang Wenru's ability, can I not know what kind of character Lu Xie is?"

"Do you know that Lu Xie may have stepped on my bottom line?"

"So, if there is no accident, I think... Lu Xie will be killed by me, maybe it is in his expectation, and killing the imperial court official is definitely not a small matter, maybe I will be implicated in it .”

"Once the imperial court wants to investigate me, maybe those guys who are ready to make a move will all swarm up and eat me up. Then I may not be able to take care of myself, let alone deal with Beichen."

Abao's face changed drastically: "So that's the case? This Wang Wenru is really sinister and vicious! How can you say that Lu Xie is also his confidant, and he treats his confidant like this?"

Ali said coldly: "Those guys don't have any humanity at all. For them, as long as they can achieve their goals, it doesn't matter if they sacrifice anyone."

Abao patted his heart, and said fortunately: "It's fortunate that His Majesty resisted everything, and didn't let His Excellency and His Highness King Chu be affected at all, otherwise it would be really unimaginable!"

"There are quite a few people who are jealous of your lord, but they are afraid of our Highness the King of Chu and dare not make a move. However, if His Highness or your lord has an accident and they find an opportunity, they will never let it go. At that time, it will be really dangerous. gone."

Ali and Abao both looked happy, but Shen Lian didn't respond.

Even if His Majesty can't figure it out, he won't do anything just because he killed a Lu Xie.

Anyway, I am also one of the Eight Heroes of His Royal Highness King Chu, so I still have the ability to deal with things.

Even if he killed him, with his ability, no one can find any evidence or clues to deal with him, so he is really not afraid at all.
