On the banks of the Xunyang River, Xunyang City, Jiangzhou.

In the south of the city, the Governor's Mansion.

An official in green stumbled into the governor's court.

"Lord Governor, Lord Governor, it's not good..."

In the court hall, there was only the official Zuo Erguan who was working, but Mr. Wang was nowhere to be seen.

"Where is the governor? Where is he?" the green-clothed official asked urgently.

"The Governor is in the back house, drinking tea and talking with Master Sihui."

The official in green stamped his feet twice, turned around and hurried into the back house, calling:

"Lord Governor, something bad has happened. Someone from Longcheng County is reporting..."

In the back house, in a quiet courtyard, Wang Lengran, who has been practicing his self-cultivation recently and socializing with celebrities from the south of the Yangtze River, faintly heard some shouts and frowned slightly.

He put down the black chess piece in his hand, smoothed his brow, and smiled politely at his new chess partner opposite:

"Master, please excuse me."

"You're welcome, Governor Wang, just do what you want." The monk in black shook his head calmly.

Wang Lengran left his seat unhurriedly, and as soon as he exited the courtyard, he frowned and yelled at his cronies running in front:

"Yelling loudly, how can you behave like this? How do I teach you on weekdays? Mount Tai collapses before your eyes without changing your expression. You don't always have a long memory..."

He shook his head, stroked his beard and asked:

"Tell me, what's going on at Longcheng? How dare Ouyang Lianghan, a arrogant little official, write a letter to join the official?"

"No, it's not this." The little official in green couldn't suppress the panic on his face:

"Lord Governor, something bad has happened!

"The family of King Fei Xunyang of Longcheng County donated and built a pagoda at Donglin Temple, claiming to pay homage to Her Majesty the Queen and enshrining a jade gift given by Her Majesty.

"Early the morning before yesterday, Donglin Temple found that the missing corners of the jade in the sealed box were rounded. They claimed that the Buddha appeared and the divine jade was rounded. God bless the Great Zhou and the Queen.

"The auspicious news has spread throughout the county. The Longcheng County Government has sent people to escort the monks, and has sent the round jade to Luodu to present the auspiciousness!"

Wang Lengran stroked his beard and pulled off a few beards with his palm, his jaw dropped in shock, and he said in an incredible tone:

"How dare Ouyang Lianghan...dare to do such a shameless thing! Isn't he a gentleman? With thick eyebrows and big eyes, he would do such a flattering thing. It is simply unreasonable. This guy...has no face at all."

The calmness of the moment when he was playing chess with celebrities has long since faded away, and the face of the governor of Jiangzhou has turned the color of pig liver.

When the official in green heard this, he couldn't help but look at Wang Lengran with a slightly strange look in his eyes. If I remember correctly, when Her Majesty the Queen proclaimed the throne and the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, this Shangguan seemed to have offered auspicious auspiciousness together with the Princes of the Wei family.

This gentleman’s family history is very clear.

Wang Lengran asked: "Where is the team that sent off auspiciousness?"

"Reporting to the Governor, they have bypassed Jiangzhou City this morning, knowingly or not, taking another waterway and heading north to Luoyang."

"This, this, this..." Wang Lengran spun around twice, his eyes red and gnashing his teeth:

"This Ouyang Lianghan is so cowardly. How dare he act beyond his superiors? I want to join him!"

The official in green bowed and whispered: "Your Excellency, you have misunderstood. It is not Ouyang Lianghan who is presenting the memorial, but... it is his subordinate Diao Xian Cheng. Ouyang Lianghan seems to be away on leave these days..."

Wang Lengran's eyes twitched fiercely and he roared:

"What a fucking holiday, he won't be here?

"Such a big thing was done meticulously and without missing a beat. The gift showed up and was rushed to the capital on the same day. Who else could be behind it if not him?

"This guy has been flirting with the Su Mansion for a long time! If he hadn't participated in the plan, I would have eaten the chessboard!"

The official in green was silent.

Wang Lengran turned around sharply: "Can we catch them back? I mobilized the officers and soldiers of Chongfu to stop them in the name of escaping the chief officer and leaving the country without authorization!"

The official in green looked scared:

"Yes... it's a bit difficult. The key is that the matter of the divine jade offering as a gift, I wonder if someone spread it privately. Now it has become known throughout the city. It is difficult to suppress it. The main reason is that it will not end well... otherwise...

Lord Governor, would you like to try?"

When Wang Lengran heard this, he immediately calmed down and did not immediately give an order, his eyes rolled.

He suddenly raised his head, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Where is Li Xian's family? Did they also leave the country together and rush to Luoyang to offer auspicious blessings?"

The following words were spoken in a cat-like tone, as if they were vaguely expecting something.

"This...that's not the case."

Wang Lengran frowned: "Can they resist this kind of opportunity?"

The green-clothed official had a grimace: "Although it was auspicious that they found it, Prince Fei Xunyang's family is still staying in Longcheng. Only the eminent monk of Donglin Temple sent the sacred jade to Beijing, and Li Xian..."

Wang Lengran asked anxiously: "What happened to Li Xian?"

"It seems that he prayed in front of the Buddha for many days without eating or drinking. He fell ill. I heard that he was very ill."

"Seriously ill? Why don't you go to the doctor if you are too ill?"

The official in green shook his head: "No, after King Fei Xunyang fell ill, he still stayed on the bed of Su Mansion in Longcheng. He had no intention of leaving. He only invited some doctors from the county to see a doctor.

"But his condition didn't seem to be getting better. His son Li Fusu sent his servant to Jiangzhou to ask the governor for help in finding a famous doctor. He also said that his father was about to lose his ability..."

When Wang Lengran heard this, his heart suddenly went cold.

Ouyang Lianghan and other people behind the scenes did not give him the slightest chance to gain any leverage, and the plan was watertight.

"I understand." He took a deep breath and said, "You... you go down first!"

After sending away the officials in green, Wang Lengran returned to the courtyard. After a while, he sent Master Sihui out of the door with a reluctant smile. The monk in black looked at the new governor with a slightly strange look.

After sending away the miscellaneous people and the courtyard became quiet, Wang Lengran immediately turned around, wrote a handwritten letter, and summoned another absolute confidant.

The confidant went out with the letter, and Wang Lengran watched the confidant's back gradually go away with a worried look on his face.

The main reason why he was able to come to Jiangzhou, a prosperous waterway in the south of the Yangtze River, and become a feudal official in this area was because of the support of the Wei family palace.

"At the beginning, the two princes were prepared for a rainy day. They gave many instructions to protect Prince Fei Xunyang's family and completely block their way to Datianting. The battle between the two princes and the Prime Minister's Mansion is reaching an important juncture. Don't let anything go wrong here.

,affects the overall situation..."

Thinking of this, Wang Lengran, who was muttering to himself, suddenly became restless and his eyes were a little dark.

evening.

The back door of the governor's mansion.

A Persian businessman with curly hair and green eyes walked out of the door, lowered his head and slipped into the darkness. After a while, a carriage slowly drove out from the shadows in the alley and drove away.

In the back house of the Governor's Mansion, in a deserted study room where the guests had left, Wang Lengran was sitting alone.

It was getting dark, and no candles were lit in the house.

In the dimness, Wang Lengran's expression was blurred, and only a pair of gloomy and wrinkled brows could be vaguely seen.

He turned his head and glanced at a half-full teacup on the guest seat in front of him.

The seats on the guest seats were still warm, but a certain Persian businessman had disappeared.

The tea on the table is already cold.

"What did the Sixth Young Master mean? Did he misunderstand something, or was this the intention of King Wei?"

Wang Lengran clenched his fists into his sleeves, his face hesitant and struggling.

After not seeing each other for a few days, the Wei family's attitude towards the abolition of King Xunyang's family turned out to be ambiguous.

Wang Lengran directly asked which prince meant it, but the Persian businessman who temporarily took over the Jiangzhou power of the Wei family replied that it was the attitude of the Sixth Young Master who was highly valued by His Highness the King of Wei.

In addition, Boss Li also reported the matter to King Wei, but Luoyang was far away and there was no response from King Wei's palace.

At that time, they finally joined forces to knock down the Xunyang King Lixian's family and cut off an important wing of the Li family, leaving only the other wing of Prince Xiang's Mansion that shrank like a shrunken turtle in Luoyang.

Even later, after Li Xian moved to Jiangzhou, he was involved in a rebellion thousands of miles away and framed him for being involved in rebellion.

Thanks to Li Xian being as timid as a mouse, Her Majesty the Queen seemed to know her son better than her mother, and she didn't quite believe that he was involved, so she only demoted him without killing him.

But it also caused Li Xian and even the last decent status of King Xunyang to be abolished. Almost the whole family was demoted to common people and huddled in a remote county, shivering.

They could only rely on some Loli officials in the Jiangnan area who sympathized with the Li clan to secretly provide some help. They could barely survive and live a rich life, with no name or power left.

This good situation, which was almost completely suppressed, was just waiting. Her Majesty the Queen and the courtiers who turned to the Prime Minister gradually ignored and forgot about Li Xian's family.

They took action again and caused Li Xian's family to "die" of illness quietly and naturally.

Even before Wang Lengran came here to take office, he got a hint from the King of Wei that he was here to shoulder this final mission and waited until the end of his term to take action.

Then he will first be punished for dereliction of duty and work as a sinecure. From now on, he will have a bright future - with the help of the Wei family, he will enter the highest political hall in the empire that he dreams of!

But who would have thought that before he took action, the Su Mansion in Longcheng would do something like this!

Although they are all seriously ill.

But can he make Li Xian sick and Li Xian get sick himself? Can it be the same? Which one is true and which one is false?
