A knife in love

Chapter 3768
When Li Qiufeng was thinking about it, he heard Mao Scholar continue to say: "Shou Wangye nodded after listening to the doorman, and said in his mouth, why didn't this king know how to stop that bastard?! It's just that he is so greedy. If this king bribes him with money, I am afraid that this thief will be greedy and will continue to blackmail this king in the future. These years, this king has kept a low profile, lest he be caught by those treacherous villains and harm Shouwang's mansion. If these treacherous villains know about this , will definitely make use of this thief to make a big fuss. At that time, I am afraid that the Shou Palace will be in danger of being overthrown.

"After listening to King Shou, Menzi smiled and said, what the prince said is true. I have been with this thief for many years, and I know that this person is a despicable, shameless and treacherous villain. If the prince gives money as a gift, he can only let this thief The thief's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, so it is absolutely impossible to expect to spend money to eliminate disasters. The villain persuaded the prince to stop him, not with money, but with a knife.

"Hearing what Menzi said, Lord Shou couldn't help but turn pale with shock. He stared at Menzi in a daze, and said in a trembling voice, this is the capital, how can he kill people casually? What's more, this thief is a soldier guarding the city. If he is killed, the officers and soldiers This matter must be strictly investigated. At that time, the enemies of the Shouwang Mansion, the Right Minister's Mansion, and the officers and soldiers will all seize this matter, and the Shouwang Mansion will be in danger.

"Menzi smiled slightly, and said in his mouth, just don't worry, the prince. Use a knife to shut up the thief. Naturally, someone will do it, and it will definitely not implicate the Shou Palace. The villain has been with this thief for many years. I know that this thief is fond of drinking. He was often drunk and went home drunk many times. On the way home, his head was broken and his blood flowed. He also fell into the ditch twice and nearly drowned. Right now the thief is still sleeping soundly in the tavern, but in two or three hours, He would probably wake up in a daze, and then struggle to get home. It would not be surprising if the thief fell into the water and drowned on the way.

"Hearing what Menzi said, Lord Shou had already guessed his intentions. After thinking for a while, he said, if this matter can be settled, I will thank you very much. Menzi smiled, and the villain entrusted the Lord's blessing. I earned a lot of money in the past year, married a wife and had children, bought a house and bought land. I have long wanted to repay, but unfortunately there has been no good opportunity. Now is the time for the villain to repay the prince. How dare the villain refuse? The prince can rest assured that this thief has a short life. Can't see the sun tomorrow morning!

"After Menzi finished speaking, he took his farewell to Lord Shou. Lord Shou didn't stop him. Seeing Menzi go out, his thoughts were fluctuating and uneasy. He didn't close his eyes all night. After dawn, Menzi came to see him again. Lord Shou hurriedly let Menzi into the main hall, and was about to ask questions, Menzi smiled and said, thanks to the blessing of the Lord, the matter has been settled. The villain came early in the morning, and heard that a person had drowned in the Yanqu of Jincaifang, and he was heartbroken Curious, I went to watch it. Unexpectedly, the drowned man turned out to be a friend of the villain. This man was a soldier in the south city. The villain went home first, slept in the tavern until midnight, and then staggered out of the tavern. On the way, he passed Jincaifang, stumbled, fell into the rock ditch, and drowned alive Yes. After the villain heard about this, he felt very sad, and rushed to his home early in the morning to deliver the funeral ceremony to his wife."

Li Qiufeng and Ye Fengchun heard what Mao Scholar said, and thought to themselves that if Mao Scholar hadn't lied, this sect is really vicious, and even their own friends are not spared for the sake of getting ahead.It's just that although Menzi is cunning, as the saying goes, the mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind. He killed the sergeant and helped King Shou a lot, but in this way, King Shou's handle fell into his hands again. King Shou may not be at ease.

Mao Scholar went on to say: "After hearing Menzi's words, King Shou felt relieved, and personally took out a plate of silver money and gave it to Menzi as a reward. Menzi refused repeatedly, but Shouwang just refused, and finally Menzi had to reluctantly accept the money. Thank you so much to King Shou. King Shou patted the door on the shoulder and said, from today onwards, you are the steward of King Shou's mansion, and you need to help a lot with matters in the mansion.

"Menzi was ecstatic when he heard what King Shou said. He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said many words of gratitude. From that day on, he transformed himself into the steward of King Shou's mansion and was extremely trusted by King Shou. No matter how big or small The King of Shou asked him to discuss things together. No one in the King of Shou’s mansion could match his kindness. It’s a pity that there was no holiday. A few months later, a fire broke out in Chengxiang Square in the southwest of the capital, and more than a dozen houses were destroyed. It was burnt to nothing and turned into a piece of white ground. The steward's family was among them, and six or seven members of the whole family were killed in the fire, which is truly deplorable."

When Mao Shusheng said this, his eyes were lowered, and his face showed a look of impatience.Li Qiufeng and Ye Fengchun felt quite disdainful when they saw him being so pretentious, but they didn't speak.Murong Danyan snorted, and said with a sneer: "What fire and flood, it's just an excuse! In order to please King Shou, Menzi betrayed his friends, got a reward from King Shou, and even became the steward of King Shou's mansion." However, although this person is cunning, he was blinded by greed. He thought that he would gain the trust of the King of Shou from now on, and that he would be able to live in a prosperous life. But he didn’t want to think that he knew the secret of the King of Shou, and he had become the king of Shou. The confidant is seriously troubled, and he must be removed. After the sergeant was killed, the reason why King Shou didn't immediately kill Menzi and kill him was because King Shou didn't know whether Menzi had a backhand, so he promoted him. In order to manage affairs, he trusted him on the surface, but in fact he was watching him to reveal his secrets. Later, he found that Menzi was not to be feared, so King Shou wanted to kill Menzi. The government tracked down King Shou’s mansion and set fire to it, turning Menzi’s house into a white field. In this way, not only Menzi’s family was burned to death, but the secrets of King Shou could not be revealed, even if Menzi left behind the name of King Shou The secret words were also completely burned by the fire. Hmph, Shou Wang keeps a low profile on the surface and stays behind closed doors. In fact, he is ambitious and has other plans. He is a vicious and cruel person. Master Mao, you So pretentious, don't you really know the character of King Shou?"

Li Qiufeng and Ye Fengchun listened to Mao Shusheng's words, so they could guess that Menzi's family died at the hands of King Shou.Mao Shusheng also knew that he couldn't hide it from everyone, but he didn't say it clearly.However, Li Qiufeng and Ye Fengchun were both wise and scheming people, so naturally they would not expose Mao Shusheng to his face.Murong Danyan couldn't help but sarcasm, both Shusheng Mao and Monk Tonghai thought, this kid is arrogant and has no scheming, although he is hateful, there is nothing to fear.
