She only wants to do infrastructure construction

Li Yewu's invitation to Patriarch Sifang naturally fell into the eyes of the people sent by Patriarch Xu to follow Li Yewu.

The young servant watched quietly, and followed Li Yewu all the way back to the Prince's Mansion. After confirming that she would not come out again, he secretly went back to report to the master.

At that time, Patriarch Xu was lighting up the lamp to study the chess game on the gourd pond altar, when he heard a knock on the door, he carefully locked the game record and opened the door.

"Master, just now I saw that Princess Shang gave a greeting card to Sifang Patriarch."

The boy reported everything he saw and heard.

Patriarch Xu couldn't help snorting coldly: "Patriarch Sifang really doesn't have one heart with us, you go and invite Patriarch Mu and Patriarch Liu here."

"Yes."

The boy took the order and went out.

Half a moment later, Patriarch Mu came to Xu's house in a low-key manner, but the two of them waited for a long time and still did not see Patriarch Liu coming.

After a long time, the servant came late and reported: "Reporting to the master, the head of the Liu family has not returned yet after going out to handle the goods."

"Hmph, what are you doing? It's clear that we are avoiding it and drawing a clear line with us." Patriarch Xu snorted coldly.

"Forget it, a coward like Old Liu would be fine if he didn't pack up and run away. But why hasn't Brother Sifang come here yet?"

"You still want him to come?" Patriarch Xu gave him a cool look.

Patriarch Mu didn't understand, so he nodded: "We have always followed the example of Big Brother Sifang, and things like holding a night party... Didn't you inform Big Brother?"

Patriarch Xu sneered: "I'm afraid that if you become someone's eldest brother, they may not treat you as one of their own."

"What does Brother Xu mean?" Patriarch Mu stopped smiling immediately.

"Just now my people saw that Patriarch Sifang had contacts with Prince Shang's mansion, and even Princess Shang secretly gave Patriarch Sifang a invitation."

"What?" Patriarch Mu's expression changed immediately.

No wonder he was so nervous.

The main reason is that some time ago, they just conspired to buy and kill the princess in a secret bid.However, the ending didn't go according to their planned plan. Not only was the princess fine, but she also took over the plum blossom village that assassinated her.

What's even more frightening is that two-thirds of the rogues in No Man's Land were all recruited. Among these rogues, some had contacts with them, and some had no contacts.

Whether it is true or not, I am afraid that these people will know that they bought the murderer, and then secretly inform Li Yewu.

For the past half month, Patriarch Mu had trouble sleeping and eating, worried that the bandits would inform him, and worried that the other three Patriarchs would be traitors.

In the end, the four masters made an agreement to keep a distance from the palace.

Who would have thought that after half a month, Patriarch Sifang would be the first to default on the contract.

"Could it be...we're thinking too much, Brother Sifang just has to go."

"If Patriarch Sifang doesn't want to go, there will naturally be a hundred reasons to refuse, and it depends on how he chooses."

"What if he goes?"

"If he goes, it means that he chooses to stand in line with King Shang, and he will no longer be our friend from now on."

Patriarch Mu frowned, his face full of displeasure.

"It's all the fault of Princess Shang, who has caused so many troubles in just a short time! What's even worse is that the rogues are scared and no one dares to touch her. What should we do?"

"It's best to stay the same at this time. Besides, hasn't the head of Meihuazhai been found yet? We can contact him secretly and provide him with help. After all, the enemy of the enemy is our friend, isn't it?"

Master Xu smiled evilly.

At this time, Patriarch Mu looked at Patriarch Xu with admiration. Speaking of which, Patriarch Xu is in the grocery business, and groceries are the most inconspicuous to the other three families. He is also the most low-key at ordinary times. Gu, I usually underestimate him.

But let's talk about why Patriarch Xu is so hostile to Concubine Shang, could there be other festivals?

As if he understood Patriarch Mu's mind, Patriarch Xu smiled: "Leave aside me, why did Patriarch Mu insist that Princess Shang die?"

When asked about the doubts in his heart, Patriarch Mu smiled wryly: "What do you say that festivals are not festivals? Merchants value profits. She left my manor uncultivated. It will undoubtedly cut off my money. Cutting off my money is like killing my parents. Isn't this enough reason? "

Patriarch Xu smiled and nodded: "There is no one who knows me who admires Patriarch, and I think so too."

Patriarch Mu suddenly became enlightened and laughed too.

When it was time to leave, Patriarch Mu turned his head again: "In other words, it's not an option for Lao Liu to not return to Taihe City on the grounds of doing goods. Compared with Sifang, I think he is more of an uncertain factor."

"This kind of uncertain factor, let him never return to Taihe City."

"Does Patriarch Xu have a way? If not, my younger brother can help."

Although the rogues couldn't kill Li Yewu, it shouldn't be a problem to kill a merchant in Taihe City, right?
Don't blame them for being cruel.

After all, Sifang might go to Shang Palace tomorrow. If he goes, let alone what they discussed, at least Patriarch Liu will definitely feel guilty when he sees it.

In case he ran to the princess to surrender in order to survive, and confessed that they were the real murderers who assassinated the princess, it would be difficult to handle.

Patriarch Xu nodded: "Then please trouble Patriarch Mu."

The two quickly reached a consensus, and then Patriarch Mu left the Xu family while there was no one around.

After Patriarch Mu left, two old men came out from the corner of Patriarch Xu's living room. They were the elders who were with Patriarch Xu to untie the mechanism of the altar.

The eyes of the two old men were cloudy but deep. They stared at Patriarch Mu's back and murmured.

"Is Patriarch Mu trustworthy?"

"It doesn't matter if it's credible or not, anyway, he's just a pawn, if the situation is wrong, just throw it away." Patriarch Xu replied coldly.

"Speaking of which, we have to speed up our actions. Now Li Yewu, the king of cups, has not only taken back the hearts of the people, but even the rogues have been recruited by them for more than half. Seeing that Taihe City is getting more and more peaceful, it is necessary to make it chaotic as soon as possible. .”

"Elder, don't worry, I already have a new plan, and the tranquility here will disappear soon." Patriarch Xu looked up at the misty moon, and chattered and laughed.

……

During the secret meeting with Patriarch Xu, Li Yewu had already washed up and was ready to rest.

However, she was surprised to find that she had insomnia!

The quality of her sleep was very good in her two lives, especially after she was pregnant, she not only ate well, drank well, and slept very well.

But today I was rolling around in the bed but I didn't feel sleepy at all. Not only did I not feel sleepy, but I felt very empty in my heart.

This feeling is like not eating watermelon in summer, not putting barbecue sauce on the barbecue, and not having garlic and pepper in the hot pot, which is particularly bad.

However, she couldn't tell what was missing!
After rolling around for a long time but still not feeling sleepy, Li Yewu got up discouraged.

"Could it be... that he slept in the carriage in the evening and was full and not sleepy now?"

Li Yewu couldn't help muttering to himself.

When thinking of the carriage, it is inevitable to think of Xiao Jiuxi's embrace, and Li Yewu misses it for a moment.
