C977 Wei Wuji
Uncle Zhong's face was ashen as he said, "Not only did he not kill that little thief, even my Yinyang Compass was taken by that little thief."
Lan Jianyi was stunned. "How … How is this possible?"
Uncle Zhong said, "The Demon Immortal Silver Shark King beside the little thief is no small matter. If these two join forces, this old servant will not be a match for them." He paused for a moment and said, "Originally, this old servant wanted to kill that little thief. Then, he would report the truth to the old master. In this way, the duke wouldn't be too angry when he saw that the matter had been settled. But now, the old servant's Yin-Yang Compass had been lost, as well as Xin Dong's death. All of this had to be reported to the lord. And in today's battle, this old servant's side has also alarmed the Dragon Guards.
Lan Jianyi muttered to himself.
Although he was narrow-minded, he wasn't an idiot. He knew that after this incident had alarmed his father, his father would definitely feel that he was useless.
Lan Jianyi said to Uncle Zhong, "Do we really have to report this to my father?"
Uncle Zhong said, "Yes, Sixth Young Master."
Lan Jianyi said, "Is there no other way?"
Uncle Zhong said, "Sixth Young Master, you should know that paper cannot contain fire. "He took the initiative to confess to the marquis, and compared to the old master who knew that there would be questions later on, the effects were different."
Lan Jianyi said, "Alright, let's go see my father now."
Uncle Zhong nodded.
The day had just come, and Lan Tianji was preparing to go to the morning court.
At this time, Lan Jianyi and Uncle Zhong requested an audience.
In Lan Tianji's bedroom, two Maidservant girls were dressing Lan Tianji.
"Father!" After Lan Jianyi entered, he shouted with great respect.
Uncle Zhong also said, "Greetings, old master."
Lan Tianji waved Maidservant away. He gave Lan Jianyi and Uncle Zhong an indifferent look. He said, "For the two of you to appear at the same time, it must be because of something. I only have five minutes, go ahead. "
Lan Jianyi kneeled down and said, "Father, our son made a mistake. Please punish him."
Lan Tianji wasn't surprised and said, "Speak, what is it?"
Lan Jianyi then said, "Father, our son misjudged and accepted a guest. This guest was arrogant and rude, but he was eventually chased out by his son. You know, after he went out, he said bad things about me and you. His son became furious and begged Uncle Zhong to send out the assassins from the Tian Ji camp to kill this madman. He knew that this madman still had the Demon Immortal Silver Shark King by his side. Now, a brother of the Tian Ji camp had died a horrible death, and Uncle Zhong's Yin Yang Compass had also been snatched away by them. This matter also alarmed the Dragon Guards. "
Lili's expression did not change much. He looked at Uncle Zhong and asked, "You alarmed the Dragon Guards?"
Uncle Zhong said with fear and trepidation, "This old servant is guilty of a death sentence!"
"How did you explain it to the Dragon Guards?" Lan Tianji asked.
Uncle Zhong said, "This old servant told that Gong Master Sun that it was only a small matter regarding the Hou Mansion, so Gong Master Sun stopped pursuing it."
Lan Tianji said, "Immediately arrange for someone to prepare a large gift for Master Sun's house." He paused for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'll let Zhao Lan handle it."
Zhao Lan was naturally Madame Zhao.
Uncle Zhong kneeled down and said, "This old servant has committed a death sentence, please punish me, Master."
Lili glanced at Uncle Zhong and he said, "You thought that it was just a small matter of Number One, so you wanted to help him solve it, right?"
Uncle Zhong did not dare to say anything.
Lili coldly snorted and said, "You really deserve to die. What is this place? In the Imperial City, any trivial matter could turn into a major incident, and it could also turn into a calamity. How can you decide on your own! "
Uncle Zhong was covered in cold sweat and couldn't say a word.
Lili continued, "And Sword1, since they are fanatics. Then if they stole Uncle Zhong's Yin-Yang Compass, why did Uncle Zhong still have a chance to return? What exactly is the sequence of events of this matter? Are you still going to lie to me? "
Lan Jianyi trembled. He was always afraid of being together with his father. It was because his father had a pair of eyes that could see through the world. It was as if nothing could be hidden from him.
"Uncle Zhong, tell me!" Lan Tianji said.
Uncle Zhong did not dare to hide anything and immediately told them everything.
After hearing this, Lan Tianji was silent for a moment, and then he said, "Jian Yi, you disappoint me too much. Now, I shall punish you by punishing you for having thought over the wall for three years. Within three years, you are not allowed to take a single step out of that wall. "
"Yes, father!" Lan Jianyi felt his legs go soft. He did not expect his father's punishment to be so severe, but he did not dare to defy it.
Lan Tianji had to manage so many people within the enormous manor, and he could also make the entire manor orderly. This was because of the strict rule of the Liliana family.
"Uncle Zhong, Blade One." Lan Tianji said, "You guys are really too bold. Even though there's a strong family of saints in the manor right now, who do you think is the current emperor? Do you think you can do anything in front of His Majesty? Every single day, I have to tread on thin ice and tremble in fear. Who gave me the guts to act so boldly and rashly? "
"The higher you are, the more careful you have to be." If one's words and deeds were wrong, it would be a disaster as long as someone was willing to do something for them. How many times do I have to say this before you guys understand? " Lan Tianji said angrily.
Lan Jianyi and Uncle Zhong's heads barely touched the ground. The two of them did not dare to say another word.
"All of you, go down." Lan Tianji added.
Uncle Zhong couldn't help but ask, "Master, then how should we deal with Chen Qingyang's matter?"
Lan Tianji pondered for a moment, then said: "Silver Shark King daring to make a move in the Imperial City, is already a death sentence. Uncle Zhong, go to Jingtian Manor and ask Manor Lord Wei to capture Silver Shark King. As for that Chen Qingyang, just kill him on the spot. "
"Yes sir!" Uncle Zhong said.
Lan Tianji didn't know Chen Qingyang was King of Heaven's Mandate. He didn't even know who Chen Qingyang was, and for Lan Tianji, it wasn't important.
Nowadays, it was not so easy for outsiders to see Chen Qingyang's fate. This was because of the changes that occurred as his cultivation level grew. Just like Lan Tingyu, very few people knew that he was King of Heaven's Mandate.
Lan Tianji did know that Lan Tingyu was King of Heaven's Mandate.
However, so what if it was King of Heaven's Mandate? Lan Tianji clearly knew what those four words meant.
King of Heaven's Mandate meant luck, but it didn't mean he was a gold medal for survival.
It wasn't as if there hadn't been a King of Heaven's Mandate who had died at the hands of His Majesty and Lan Tianji. I'll kill them all, but not a single one will come out.
Jingtian Manor was located in the outskirts of the Imperial City. Jingtian Manor occupied an area of ten thousand acres, and was as luxurious as an imperial garden.
Every summer, His Majesty would go to Jingtian Manor to stay for a few days to take shelter from the heat. Who was the owner of Jingtian Manor, Wei Wuji?
Very few people were clear about Wei Wuji's background. All he knew was that Wei Wuji had once been the left shoulder of His Majesty, and Lan Tianji the right arm.
After His Majesty's success, Wei Wuji rejected the idea of fame and reputation. Thus, he settled down in Jingtian Manor outside the imperial city. In the entire imperial court, not many people dared to be disrespectful to Wei Wuji. Although Wei Wuji was not in the imperial court, his name shook the imperial court.
In the eyes of outsiders, Lan Tianji and Wei Wuji had nothing to do with each other.
But why would Lan Tianji let Wei Wuji do it this time? The relationship between the two was extremely subtle.
However, if anyone knew about this, they would be able to see some clues.
Lan Tianji didn't want to be tainted with the stench of blood, and Wei Wuji would settle this matter and report directly to His Majesty. This way, things would be much better.
So, why would Lan Tianji ask Wei Wuji for help? This was an old story. Wei Wuji still owed Lan Tianji a favor, so as long as Lan Tianji could get Wei Wuji to help, Wei Wuji would definitely not refuse. However, he would only help Lan Tianji once.
This was a very precious opportunity. Lili didn't hesitate to use this chance, which meant he still valued this matter a lot.2
Uncle Zhong then personally went to Jingtian Manor.
After Wei Wuji heard about it, he said to Uncle Zhong, "Okay, I understand."
Uncle Zhong knew that the matter had been resolved without any further changes. When Wei Wuji made his move, Silver Shark King and Chen Qingyang were no longer lucky.
Uncle Zhong knew that his old master had always been impeccable when it came to handling matters. Since the lord had invited Wei Wuji, the matter had already been set.
Uncle Zhong left Jingtian Manor very calmly.
Although Chen Qingyang and Qiao Ning knew that the matter was very serious, they did not know that it was already this serious. The two of them first made a trip to Yufeng Garden, where Chen Qingyang handed over the letter.
After that, Chen Qingyang and Qiao Ning went to Heavenly Lake Pavilion.
In the Heavenly Lake Pavilion, Su Yanran once again received Chen Qingyang and Qiao Ning.
It was ten o'clock in the morning.
Inside the study room, Lili said, "I know the purpose of your visit."
Chen Qingyang smiled bitterly and said: "The information on Heavenly Lake Pavilion truly does live up to its name!"
Lili said in a deep voice, "But I'm very sorry, Chen Qingyang, and Qiao Ning. Our Heavenly Lake Pavilion won't intervene this time."
"Why?" Chen Qingyang asked.
Qiao Ning's expression was extremely complicated. She did not speak up.
Lili said, "Originally, according to the meaning in the book, I should not be seeing you. But Chen Qingyang, our personal feelings won't allow me to see you. "
Chen Qingyang gradually realized the seriousness of the situation. His face turned dark and said, "Can you tell me how serious it is?"
"Uncle Zhong made a trip to Jingtian Manor!" Su Yanran said.
"What do you mean?" Chen Qingyang didn't understand.
Qiao Ning went pale.
Chen Qingyang took in the changes in Qiao Ning's expression and asked her, "Is there anything wrong with Jingtian Manor?"
Su Yanran replied, "The owner of the Jingtian Villa is called Wei Wuji. Wei Wuji was His Majesty's trusted aide today. Without even mentioning that, the most important thing was that Wei Wuji's cultivation level had most likely reached the Tenth Layer already. If he makes a move, none of you will have a chance to struggle. "
"Tenth Layer?" Chen Qingyang couldn't help but turn pale.
Although he had seen many experts in Tianzhou, he had not even seen a single expert from there. No, it should be said that Sect Sovereign and Yun Huaying of Cloud Heaven Sect were experts in Tenth Layer.
Tenth Layer, what realm was that? Chen Qingyang was very clear about what that represented.
Su Yanran said, "Of course, this is only a legend. But even if he does not have Tenth Layer, he is still at the peak of the ninth heaven. "
