Chapter 96 The King of Wei takes the blame

"According to the news from Jiangnan, Qiao Qingyu has received Qiao Qingyin's request for help. She has left the Moon Worship Palace and is heading to the Imperial Capital. Counting the time, she should be arriving at the Imperial Capital soon."

In the palace of King Wei.

The King of Wei was sitting high on the throne, and a serious-faced middle-aged scribe in a Confucian shirt was reading the news in his hand.

"Ba Linghou is dead, has Qiao Qingyu not received the news yet?" King Wei frowned and asked.

"For some reason, Qiao Qingyin didn't notify Qiao Qingyu immediately after learning the news. The letter was sent out on the third day. By the time it arrived, Qiao Qingyu had already left," the middle-aged scribe said.

"It seems that girl Xiao Qiao has forgotten." King Wei chuckled after hearing this, "However, it is not a bad thing for Qiao Qingyu to come back at this time. When she left last year, she was already at the peak of the sun. I don't know what she is doing now. Are you ready to die?"

"With Qiao Qingyu's talent, I think she has already become a prince. In addition, there is another thing. Ji Ren invited Du Bo and the others to the Dengke Building, saying that wealth and honor never forget each other, and now we have to make up for the regrets we had at the beginning." said the middle-aged scholar. .

"Regret? It's my regret. If he had taken action earlier, Ji Ren would not be out of control, let alone the current changes." At this point, King Wei frowned, with a rare look of anger on his face. : "Have you found out? How did Ji Ren and the others know about Wu Sheng Pirates? How did my father suspect me?"

When he talked about this matter, he felt aggrieved.

The whereabouts of the Wusheng thief, Su Guogong's grandson's daughter-in-law, has always been a trump card in his hand. He has to wait until the critical moment to fight it out, and then watch the King of Wu and the King of Han fight.

As a result, who would have thought that Ji Ren and Zhang Jingshou bought a piece of land and discovered the nest of Wusheng thieves.

Then everything did not develop according to his plan.

Fortunately, because he had previously thought about revealing this trump card for Er Qiao, King Wei was somewhat prepared. Although the timing was not what he found and was a bit hasty, the advantage was in his favor.

But who knew that within a few days, Emperor Qi called him into the imperial study and scolded him mercilessly. He used Ji Ren and his brother Zhang Jingshou to ask him what he wanted to do?
  The king of Wei called it an injustice.

If he did it, he admitted it, but the problem is, he didn't do it!

But unfortunately, he didn't refute.

He just opened his mouth to defend himself for a few words, and Emperor Qi threw out a bunch of information, confirming that he probably knew the news, and that he had contacted Ji Ren not long ago. Only he knew what was discussed in the contact.

Looking at the "ironclad" evidence, King Wei didn't know how to argue.

Because of the change of place, he was in the position of Emperor Qi, and he also suspected that he had done it.

But, he really didn’t do it!

When Emperor Qi saw King Wei like this, he just felt that King Wei was guilty of being a thief, so he ordered him to be confined in the palace, so that he could not have any more ideas about the Qiao sisters.

Until now, the prince, the king of Han, and the king of Wu all thought that he was the one who did it. Then, before the king of Han came to an end, the king of Wu and the prince who was presiding over the trial began to bite him.

To sum up in one sentence, blood mother loses money.

"My subordinates are incompetent and cannot be found out yet." The middle-aged scribe looked embarrassed.

After getting the order, he mobilized spies from the entire Wei Palace, but no information was found.

The final conclusion was that Ji Ren could not know the truth.

But this conclusion was obviously not what King Wei needed.

He needs an enemy to vent his anger on.

Seeing the counselor's appearance, King Wei let out a long sigh. He knew that he couldn't blame him. In fact, he also felt that Ji Ren and the others should not know. It should be a coincidence, but he was suspicious by nature and did not believe in coincidences.

"Don't worry, my lord, it's not too late to make up for it. It's a pity, so we'll find an opportunity to make up for it. Ji Ren is going to Dengke Building. Isn't this a good opportunity for us?" There was another man in his twenties in the hall. , a young man with a frivolous face, heard King Wei sigh, took a sip of wine, and said lazily. "Wuzhi, do you have a clever plan?" When King Wei heard this, he didn't care about his posture, but said with a novel look on his face.

Guo Lang, also known as Wuji, was one of Cao Cao's five great counselors in the Three Kingdoms. He was also the inheritor of Cao Cao's favorite counselor, Guo Jia.

"It's not a clever plan, it's just taking advantage of people's hearts. Ji Ren loves Mu Yu, the courtesan in the imperial examinations. In order to listen to her music, he did not hesitate to steal the money from Uncle Wei Yuan's house in order to be alone with Mu Yu for half an hour. If Mu Yu... If he is willing to recommend himself as a pillow, can he resist? And what if Miss Qiao happens to see it at this time?" Guo Lang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a bit of joking.

"What a good plan. Qiao Qingyu will never allow her fiancé to do such a thing. When the time comes, even if there is a marriage contract to prevent it, it will be difficult to get married." King Wei said with a smile.

"If that's the case, it's still not enough. After all, things like this won't necessarily make a big deal, and the teenage romance is not an exaggeration. If the oiran died because Ji Ren forced him to, then the complaint should be filed with the governor of Jingzhao Things will not end well there." The middle-aged scribe on the side laughed.

"Lide's words are even more popular with me." King Wei laughed even more when he heard this.

Cheng Lide, one of Cao Cao's five great counselors in the Three Kingdoms, was also the inheritor of Cheng Yu's method, the most loyal counselor to Cao Cao.

Entering a brothel would be considered obscene at most, but if the courtesan was forced to kill by force, that would be another matter.

Although the Zhuge family would not let Ji Ren be killed, it was enough to discredit Ji Ren.

He just laughed for a while and then said: "What if Ji Ren is drunk and allowed to fall asleep to violate the daughter of a good family?"

After all, an oiran is a lowly person, but if she is a woman from a good family, things will really get into trouble.

"It will be inconvenient to find girls from good families in the day after tomorrow, and most girls from good families are related. With the connections of the Zhuge family, if we check them one by one, we may not be able to find out." Cheng Lide thought for a moment, shook his head and said.

"Yes, safety is the key, and there is Lao Lide." King Wei looked at Cheng Lide and said.

"It's a matter of duty." Cheng Lide replied respectfully.

Guo Lang shook his head slightly, what a pity, Miss Mu Yu, a girl as beautiful as a flower.

……

The residence of Prince Wu.

King Wu also summoned his confidants.

"Your Highness, Ji Ren asked Du Bo and the others to come the day after, and there are also people in the Wei Palace who are going out, but what they are going to do cannot be found for the time being." Buyunshan said.

"It's not important. If we can find out, then the eldest brother, Gu Wang, can't fight with the Grand Master for so many years. It's suspicious if we can find out, but it's normal if we can't find out, and there's no need to find out, anyway, Gu Wang Since this eldest brother is taking action, it is definitely not to take care of Ji Ren, but to attack Ji Ren." King Wu said with a smile.

"Your Highness is wise." Everyone in the hall said in unison.

"The manpower has been arranged." King Wu looked sharply at the center of the hall.

"It has been arranged that after he completes this matter, he will die. After all, he is a damned person. No one can secretly find out the relationship between this person and us. And the other traces, at first glance, seem It's us, but the evidence we gave is too direct. If you think about it carefully, you will find that it is a frame-up, and then you will suspect King Wei." King Wu said with confidence.

"Okay, this battle is successful, and all of you are the heroes. When I come to Dabao, I will not hesitate to give you an official title, make a marquis and worship the prime minister." King Wu said loudly.

"I am willing to die for Your Highness." After hearing this, everyone in the hall saluted.

King Wu's eyes were sharp and high-spirited.

Outside Chang'an City.

Qiao Qingyu, who had been eating and sleeping all the way, came to a senior sister's house to take a rest.
