Chapter 705 Wu Yanhao Returns
Chapter 705 Wu Yanhao Returns
A shocking change is about to happen, and the people at the center of the vortex don’t know what is going to happen.
Two people who should not have met met because of the prince. What their purpose was is still unknown.
Nothing happened that night. At dawn the next day, a figure appeared in the Luzhou governor's mansion.
Li Cunxi looked at the other person's face and said in surprise:
"Strange, why are you here?"
The person who came had a curvy figure, but she was wearing a nightgown, so her face couldn't be seen clearly under the mask.
However, the moment he saw the other person, Li Cunxi knew his identity.
Because the other person's voice is so recognizable.
The visitor sighed and told Li Cunxi what happened in Di Mansion yesterday.
After hearing what happened yesterday, Li Cunxi was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say in response.
What the prince's cousin was going to do was very strange, and even he couldn't guess his specific intentions.
However, it is obvious that being able to bring together the descendants of the prince and the descendants of the King of Wei must not be a trivial matter.
The conflict between the descendants of the Li family had been intensifying for decades, and by now Li Bin and Li Jiao should have never had any contact with each other.
"I have to go, Cunxi. The prince is waiting for my reply."
The visitor held his forehead and spoke helplessly.
"With your current status, you shouldn't be doing these things for the Crown Prince. Could it be that the Crown Prince's cousin is..."
Li Cunxi hesitated to speak. What he wanted to say was that there was no one else available around the prince.
The visitor guessed what Li Cunxi was going to say and sighed heavily.
"There is indeed no one left around the prince."
Then she added:
"What's more, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't trust those people. Now he doesn't even trust his Crown Princess."
The Crown Princess doesn’t even trust you?
Li Cunxi frowned.
Although Crown Princess Wei would have an affair with Prince of Liang Wu Sansi in the future, she should still be considered virtuous and kind at present.
Moreover, the brother of Crown Princess Wei, the future famous prime minister Wei Anshi, was the Crown Prince's guest, so there was no reason not to trust him.
But he still wasn't trusted by the prince.
It is conceivable how dangerous the prince’s current situation is.
"I'm leaving now. You'd better be careful in Luzhou."
The visitor looked back at the sky and knew it was time to leave.
Li Cunxi waved his hand as a farewell.
The person who came quickly disappeared outside the window, and a hint of light gradually appeared in the sky outside.
Meanwhile, Luoyang.
In the Linde Hall, a document from the Western Regions was delivered. Wu Zetian took it from Shangguan Wan'er's hand, looked down at it, and nodded silently.
"Since Wu Yanhao wants to go to Luzhou first, let him go. We can discuss the reward after he comes back.
……
Luzhou Governor's Mansion.
In the early morning, the wind was cold and the wind was blowing. Wu Yanhao, riding on a Qianli Yizhangqing, appeared outside the governor's mansion with Ma Rong and Qiao Tai.
The guards on duty, Qi Hu and Pan Yue, went forward with iron rods in hand and said in a loud voice:
"Whoever comes here, please tell me your name!"
Wu Yanhao pulled the thick scarf off his face a little, revealing his relatively clean face.
"Qi Hu, Pan Yue, I'm Wu Yanhao, Shao Yin of Henan Prefecture!"
"It's only been a short time since we last met, and you two have already forgotten me?"
Qi Hu and Pan Yue saw Wu Yanhao's face clearly, and quickly retracted the iron rods, grinning foolishly for a while.
"Isn't Wu Shaoyin in the Western Regions? How come he came back so quickly?"
"I think Wu Shaoyin must have made an unprecedented contribution this time. It's really cause for celebration."
Wu Yanhao dismounted and handed the reins to a young waiter who came up to meet him.
"Use the best fodder and make sure to serve His Majesty the Prince of Qin well, otherwise I will be very angry."
The young waiter smiled innocently and said, "Since you said so, even if you didn't mention it, I would definitely use the best fodder..."
In this cold winter, where can we find the best fodder? But that's just talk.
The young waiter quickly led Qianli Yizhangqing away, and walked into the governor's mansion with Ma Rong and Qiao Tai, who had also dismounted.
In the official residence of the governor's mansion, Wu Sansi played with the rare items sent by the patriarchs of the big families in Luzhou, and his heart was full of love for gold, silver and other valuables.
He accidentally kicked out and overturned the brazier at his feet.
Sparks flew and quickly ignited the carpet not far away. Wu Sansi no longer cared about fiddling with his beloved treasure and hurriedly shouted:
"Help, help, there's a fire, there's a fire!"
Several servants who were waiting outside the door hurriedly found some water and poured it on the half-burned carpet, which immediately put out the fire.
Wu Sansi ordered his servants to bring a new carpet with a grim look on his face, and he was in no mood to continue playing with those treasures.
I simply put them all in the box, and after this matter is over, I will return to Luoyang and take a closer look at them.
After everything was put away, it was already time for dinner. Wu Sansi walked out of the official residence with his hands behind his back and swaggered towards the second hall.
As soon as he entered the second hall, he saw an acquaintance sitting on a chair on one side of the hall.
"Yanhao, aren't you in the Western Regions? Why are you in Luzhou?"
Wu Yanhao was originally waiting for Li Cunxi, but when he saw Wu Sansi coming, he suddenly felt unlucky.
But Wu Sansi was his cousin after all. No matter how bad the relationship between them was, he had to be polite and not let the other party find fault with him.
So he stood up and bowed to Wu Sansi:
"Uncle, the matter in the Western Regions has been settled, so I came back."
Wu Sansi nodded and said, "The Western Regions are a bitterly cold place. It's not a good idea to stay there for too long. It's good to come back early. Besides, it's just in time for the New Year."
Chinese people have an obsession with the Chinese New Year, especially those from the Central Plains to the north.
Wu Yanhao also came back on time. If he had come back a little later, he would have had to spend the New Year outside.
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, but really had nothing else to say, so they just drank their tea to avoid the awkward conversation atmosphere.
Soon, Li Cunxi followed Ma Rong and Qiao Tai into the second hall. As soon as he saw Wu Yanhao, he opened his arms.
"welcome!"
"Brother Yanhao, you're finally back. It seems the war in the Western Regions is going very smoothly!"
Wu Yanhao stood up with a smile and hugged Li Cunxi tightly.
"Thanks to you, I now have a nickname in the Western Regions."
"These foreigners are now calling me a butcher, saying I kill people without blinking an eye, hahahahahaha."
"But I only led people to slaughter about 200,000 foreigners in the Western Regions, hahahahaha."
Wu Yanhao smiled happily and was extremely pleased with the title given to him by the alien.
"By the way, the Black Society is completely destroyed. Xiao Tao and Wei Er are both dead."
"It's just that Mo Ling seemed to be a little off. During the final battle to encircle Xiao Tao and Wei Er, Mo Ling was actually stabbed by Wei Er."
"With his martial arts skills, how could he be killed by Wei'er?"
