Chapter 1063 Tracking

The two of them had just touched a glass when they heard a light knock on the door. Luo Xin put down the wine glass and whispered:

"Here you come!"

King Yu also hurriedly straightened his chest and looked majestic. Luo Xin looked funny, got up and came to the door, opened the door, and saw Lu Daqing standing outside, standing behind him a man in ordinary clothes and a hat. Seeing Luo Xin come out, he whispered:

"Mr. Luo, I'm here!"

"Come in!"

Luo Xin whispered softly, then moved away from her body, and the man walked in. Luo Xin instructed Lu Daqing to guard the room outside and gently closed the door.

The man in the room took off his hat and knelt in front of King Yu with a thud and said:

"My minister, Liu Shouyou pays homage to Your Highness."

King Yu stood up gracefully, took two steps forward, reached out to support Liu Shouyou's shoulder, and said kindly:

"General Liu, please get up."

"Written by Your Highness!"

Liu Shouyou stood up and bowed to Luo Xin and said, "I have met Lord Luo."

Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite between us, we are all assisting His Highness Yu."

When King Yu heard this, he felt even more happy. He waved his hand and said, "Shi Luo, General Liu, sit down and eat while talking."

After Luo Xin and Liu Shouyou thanked him, they sat down. They had prepared bowls and wine glasses for Liu Shouyou long ago. Luo Xin poured wine for the three of them and said with a smile:

"Come on, let's have a drink."

"I'm here to respect your highness." Liu Shouyou hurriedly raised his wine glass.

All three of them drank it all in one go. Then there was a conversation between King Yu and Liu Shouyou. King Yu showed great affection, and Liu Shouyou also showed great loyalty. The king and his ministers were happy. Luo Xin just sat aside, not disturbing them, and watched with a smile. After talking about this for about two quarters of an hour, Liu Shouyou suddenly closed his mouth and looked embarrassed on his face.

When King Yu saw Liu Shou’s face in distress, he smiled affectionately and said, “General Liu, if you have anything to say, you will tell Gu. As long as Gu can solve it, it will definitely solve it for you.”

"No!" Liu Shouyou hesitated: "It's just that I got a message, I don't know if it's said or not."

"Say!" King Yu said simply.

"Yes!" Liu Shouyou swallowed, and a hint of nervousness appeared on his face as soon as possible: "Your Highness, I have received a message that tonight, Master Xu invites Yuan Wei to the banquet."

"What?" At first, King Yu didn't care, but after hearing Liu Shouyou's words, he almost jumped up: "What did you say?"

"I said, Master Xu invites Yuan Wei to the banquet tonight!"

"Master Xu invites Yuan Wei to the banquet?" King Yu asked in disbelief.

"yes!"

"General Liu!" Luo Xin interrupted with a serious expression: "This is no joke, are you sure?"

"I'm sure!" Liu Shouyou nodded seriously.

King Yu's face suddenly became ugly, and he murmured to himself: "Master Xu is the teacher of Gu, Yuan Wei is the first teacher of his fourth brother. What does Master Xu mean to invite Yuan Wei to the banquet?"

Luo Xin and Liu Shouyou looked at each other without saying a word. The originally joyful atmosphere in the study was gone and became solemn. After a while, King Yu asked in a deep voice:

"Old Master Xu invited Yuan Wei to the banquet alone?"

"This... I don't know."

"Are you really sure?"

"I'm sure!"

"I don't believe it!"

King Yu suddenly slapped the table and stood up, walking back and forth in the study. His heart was full of failure. He was very confident just now, and he had Xu Jie and Gao Gong outside, and now he heard Xu Jie invite King Jing’s teacher to dinner.

What does Xu Jie mean?

Do you want to betray yourself?

What did you do to be sorry for him?

King Yu thought about it and felt even more angry. Didn’t he just not invited him to the mansion yesterday?

I asked him if there was anything wrong!

If there is something wrong, can you not invite him into the mansion?

Just because of such a small matter, he committed suicide to King Jing?

No!

I don't believe it!

King Yu really couldn't believe it, nor did he want to believe it. Looking at the struggle on King Yu's face, Luo Xin sighed softly.

He had a grudge against Xu Jie, but he didn't want Xu Jie to turn to King Jing at this time, which would be a heavy blow to King Yu's camp.

No matter how Xu Jie's status in King Yu's heart, don't forget that Xu Jie's chief minister of the Ming Dynasty cabinet. With this identity and status, sitting there and doing nothing will also attract a large number of people who support King Yu.

However, if Xu Jie turns to King Jing, he will lead a large number of people to leave King Yu's camp. Moreover, King Yu's reputation will be severely hit.

Even my teacher and the chief minister of the cabinet cannot be kept. Is this King Yu still worthy of support?

I'm afraid that King Yu's camp will immediately shake.

However, Luo Xin cannot pretend that this matter has not happened. Xu Jie's transfer to King Jing is a blow to King Yu, but if Xu Jie's transfer to King Jing, King Yu still doesn't know and still trust Xu Jie, this is the most dangerous thing. Therefore, King Yu must realize the seriousness of this matter. So Luo Xin said softly:

"Your Highness, it's very simple to know whether Xu Jie invites Yuan Wei to dinner or whether he only invites Yuan Wei."

"How to do it?" King Yu suddenly looked up and looked at King Yu.

"Your Highness and I changed into casual clothes, took a carriage and went out from the back door of my father, and just watched it not far from the Xujie Gate."

King Yu thought for a while and nodded. The place where Xu Jie lives was actually on the same street as Luo Xin Mansion. The streets were all important officials in the court, and there were no taverns or anything like that. Therefore, if you want to monitor Xu Jie, you must ride a carriage.

After making a decision, although King Yu was very irritable, he still sat down and drank with Luo Xin. Liu Shouyou absent-mindedly. After dinner, Liu Shouyou said goodbye and left, and Luo Xin and King Yu sat opposite each other and drank tea.

Until dusk, Luo Xin and King Yu changed into casual clothes and walked through the back door in a carriage. One of Luo Xin's servants also disguised themselves and brought a hat to drive the carriage up towards Xu Jie's mansion.

When the gate of Xu Mansion could be seen from a distance, the groom reduced the speed of the carriage to the lowest level, and the carriage walked forward swayingly. Luo Xin and King Yu sat in the carriage in a depressed manner. The carriage walked swayingly past the gate of Xu Mansion. After walking about a hundred meters, it stopped under a big tree. The carriage jumped off the shaft, squatted in front of the wheel, and pretended to be repairing the car. He just looked at the gate of Xu Mansion from time to time.

About a quarter of an hour later, Luo Xin and Prince Yu, who were sitting in the carriage, heard the coachman outside whisper:

"Your Highness, sir, Yuan Wei is here."

King Yu and Luo Xin were excited in their hearts. The two opened a crack in the window of the car and looked towards the door of Xu's mansion. They saw that Yuan Wei had come out of the sedan chair and were talking politely to Xu Jie who was coming out to greet him. Xu Jie was also full of spring breeze and entered the door of Yuan Wei.
