Chapter 188 Coincidence
The book continues from the previous chapter.
When Wang Yun saw Li Zhi greeting him with a smile, he replied angrily: "How can I not feel well when General Hussar is worried about me?!"
With that said, Wang Yun pointed to the hall of his home: "Please, General Hussar! Let's see if we can find a prostitute from my home."
"Of course." Li Zhi heard this and was not polite. After nodding, he ordered the soldiers behind him: "Come here! Search carefully for me. Don't leave any traces behind, even in the garden.
Dig three feet into the ground for me to see if there is a secret passage or dark room."
When Wang Yun heard this, he flew into a rage, pointed at Li Zhizhi and reprimanded loudly: "Shuzi! How dare you do this?! You search like this, after you finish searching, can anyone still live in this mansion?"
Hearing this, Li Zhi chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty has been dismissed from office now and will return to the countryside anyway. It doesn't matter whether you have this mansion or not."
"Okay, okay!" Wang Yun laughed angrily, pointed at Li Zhi and said fiercely: "General Hussars can search, but I won't care about it! However, I will definitely report this matter to Your Majesty, and please make the decision for me!"
At this point, Wang Yun looked at Li Zhi and threatened: "If you don't want others to know, unless you don't do anything, General Hussar will cooperate with that Zhang Rang without His Majesty's knowledge. Over time, Your Majesty will definitely know about it, and then I will
Wait until the hussar general’s head falls to the ground!”
"Hide it from Your Majesty?" Li Zhi heard this and laughed out loud, looking at Wang Yun with eyes full of pity: "The prince really thinks that Your Majesty doesn't know?"
"Hmph!" Wang Yun snorted coldly: "If Your Majesty knew, how could I escape unscathed?
As long as your majesty orders me, I will be in a different place. How could your majesty use such ghostland tactics to deal with me?"
"Ignorance is bliss." Li Zhi sneered, and then explained to Wang Yun: "What if Your Majesty knew that there was a lot of money in the prince's house?
Your Majesty, you might as well take a guess as to whether our majesty, who loves money, will use this trick to deal with the prince after he knows that he has a lot of treasures here?"
"..." When Wang Yun heard this, he opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Zhi with disbelief. Then he laughed loudly: "Haha... General Hussar really did anything to attack me!
Although I am not an extremely upright official, I can still be considered as a poor and self-sufficient man.
Mingren will not tell secrets, but the ten boxes of gold, silver and jewelry that I gave to General Hussar that day were all taken from my family.
I have some money at home, but it’s just for home use, I’m afraid I’ll disappoint the Cavalry General!”
Li Zhi heard this, shook his head, looked straight at Wang Yun, and said meaningfully: "If the prince says no, it doesn't necessarily mean there isn't, but if I say there is, then there must be!"
At this moment, a soldier hurried over and reported loudly to Li Zhi: "My lord, my subordinates dug out a large amount of gold and silver jewelry in the garden, about a hundred boxes. I'll wait for you."
I don’t know how to deal with it, please let me know."
"What?!" As soon as the soldier finished speaking, before Li Zhi could say anything, Wang Yun suddenly stood up, looked at the soldier with disbelief, and screamed.
Then, Wang Yun stepped forward, grabbed the soldier's shirt, and asked loudly: "How did you dig it out so quickly..."
After saying this, Wang Yun seemed to have thought of something, and changed his words: "How come there are so many gold and silver jewelry in my home? You must have framed me?!"
The soldier threw away Wang Yun's hand and gave him a look of disdain: "Who are you, old man? You just called me the lord of a certain family. What does this have to do with you, old man? Get out of here."
"
As he said that, the soldier pushed Wang Yun away. Without even looking at Wang Yun who was pushed to the ground, he cupped his hands towards Li Zhi and said, "How do you arrange these gold and silver jewels?
Please make it clear, my lord."
Li Zhi glanced at Wang Yun, who was lying on the ground in a daze, and said to the soldier: "Go and move all the gold, silver and jewelry here so that the prince can broaden his horizons."
After the soldier left, Wang Yun took a long time to react. He glared at Li Zhi and shouted loudly: "You must be the one who buried gold and silver jewelry in my garden to frame me, right?!"
"
Although Wang Yun was questioning Li Zhi, there was no affirmation in his eyes.
Li Zhi didn't hide anything after hearing this. He nodded and said, "That's exactly what I am!"
Wang Yun was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Li Zhi blankly, wanting to see whether what Li Zhi said was true or not.
After a long time, Wang Yun asked in confusion: "Did you really bury the jewelry in my garden?"
At this point, Wang Yun was suddenly startled: "Are you going to falsely accuse me of corruption?"
After saying that, Wang Yun shook his head and retorted: "No, I am not from a commoner's family. I come from a noble family. Even if others know that there is a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry in my garden, I can still deduce that this is
The property of my Wang family."
After thinking for a long time, Wang Yun couldn't come up with any clues. He turned his eyes to Li Zhi, who was looking at him with interest, and asked: "General Hussar, I have admitted defeat now. How can I still hope that Hussar will do it?"
The general asked me to understand why this is happening."
Li Zhi heard this and said nothing, but looked at Mrs. Wang and her servants aside.
Seeing this, Wang Yun understood what he meant and waved to his wife and servants: "You guys should step aside first."
After Wang Yun and Li Zhi were left here, Wang Yun asked: "Now that you and I are the only two left, it's time for General Hussar to speak, right?"
Hearing this, Li Zhi chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter whether others believe you are corrupt or not, as long as Your Majesty believes you."
With that said, Li Zhi walked up to Wang Yun, knelt down, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered to him: "It's not like you don't know His Majesty's temper. Judging from His Majesty's love of money, he knows the prince's family."
How can you not be tempted after having so much money?"
At this point, Wang Yun, who looked miserable, continued what he said: "Since your Majesty knows that I have a lot of money in my home, of course you will be moved. And at this time, the hussar general is probably not idle either. He must be searching my home."
Wasn't it the Cavalry General who came up with the idea?"
Li knew he had understood, smiled and nodded without saying anything.
Seeing this, Wang Yun laughed miserably and said: "What a resourceful Cavalry General! In the past, I still didn't believe that the Cavalry General could defeat the Yellow Turbans with just his resourcefulness. Now it seems that I am ignorant and ignorant. The Cavalry General's wisdom is beyond compare.
It’s really earth-shattering, I have no choice but to accept it.”
Having said this, Wang Yun turned to look at Li Zhi and asked curiously: "Where did your Majesty know that I have money in my family?
I asked myself that there was some trick. When I buried the money, I dug a pit ten feet deep, and all the slaves who dug the pit were executed by me. How did your majesty know that?"
Li Zhi looked at Wang Yun blankly and was speechless. After a long time, Li Zhi swallowed and asked stammeringly: "Wang... did the prince really bury hundreds of boxes of gold and silver jewelry in the garden?
"
"Uh..." Wang Yun was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Li Zhi and asked in confusion: "Haven't all your soldiers already searched out all the gold, silver and jewelry? Why do you still ask me?"
Hearing this, Li Zhi took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and replied blankly: "If I say that these more than one hundred boxes of gold, silver and jewelry are the result of me sending some local masters to dig a tunnel,
, buried in the prince’s garden, will the prince believe it?”
"..." Wang Yun was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and finally laughed dryly and said: "
Haha... General Hussar really loves to joke, isn't that right?"
After saying that, Wang Yun looked at Li Zhi expectantly, hoping that he would say he was joking just now.
However, the reality is cruel. Looking at Wang Yun's expectant eyes, Li Zhi shook his head firmly: "I did want to frame the prince, but now..."
After saying that, Li Zhi quickly stood up and shouted outside: "Come here! Go dig down ten feet in the garden and find hundreds of boxes of gold, silver and jewelry inside. Don't leave even one box behind!"
"Pfft..." As soon as Li Zhi finished his words, he heard a sound of spitting. Li Zhi quickly turned around and saw Wang Yun staring blankly at Li Zhi with his mouth full of blood. However, he was stunned by his own stupidity.
He was so angry that he vomited blood.
Seeing this, Li Zhi walked forward quickly, wiped the blood on the corner of Wang Yun's mouth with the handkerchief in his hand, and comforted him in a warm voice: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be so sad and angry. Anyway, your Majesty will always bear the name of corruption. Now it's just...
It’s more justifiable.”
At this time, Li Zhi was very happy. He never thought that Wang Yun actually buried gold and silver jewelry at home, and the place where he was buried was the same.
Thinking of this matter, Li Zhi felt a little dumbfounded. There were such coincidences in this world. It was like writing a novel.
After a long time, Wang Yun looked up to the sky and sighed: "Alas... this matter is all my fault! If I were not so greedy and did not suppress the Hussars General, this disaster would not have happened!"
After saying that, Wang Yun's shoulders slumped, and his originally red face was now filled with pale color, making him look as if he had aged by more than ten years.
Wang Yun regretted it at this time. He should not have suppressed Li Zhi just for some reputation. It was better now that he did not suppress Li Zhi. Instead, he was dismissed from his official position. Now it is too late to regret.
Moreover, the thing that Wang Yun regrets most is not this. The thing that he regrets most is why he talked so much with Li Zhi. If Li Zhi wanted to search, let him search, so why did he still talk so much with him?
Thinking of this, Wang Yun regretfully lamented in his heart: "Poor old man's hundred boxes of gold, silver and jewelry! That was the property I had accumulated for decades, and now it's all gone just because I said one more thing!"
Seeing Wang Yun's sad and angry expression, Li Zhi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be like this. Think about it on the bright side. I am called the "God of Killing". I didn't kill the prince even if he offended me. How can this be so?"
Isn’t that a happy thing?!”
"Hmph!" Wang Yun also came to his senses at this time, snorted coldly, looked at Li Zhi and said coldly: "Why don't I worry about General Hussars!"
As he said this, Wang Yun rolled his eyes and smiled coldly: "Isn't General Hussar afraid that I will tell all the ministers in the capital what happened just now?"
Having said this, Wang Yun smiled proudly: "I am not boasting. Compared with the hussar general who first came to Beijing, the ministers in the court believe what I said more."
When Li Zhi heard this, he narrowed his eyes, walked slowly to Wang Yun's side, and whispered in his ear: "I don't know if Wang Gong wants to breathe a sigh of relief and be exterminated, or if he wants to save you.
The Wang family?”
Wang Yun heard this, looked at Li Zhi with wide eyes, and asked in horror: "What do you mean?!"
Li Zhi chuckled sinisterly: "If even a word of what the two of us said today is spread..."
Having said this, Li Zhi patted Wang Yun hard on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Prince, apart from you, there seems to be no outstanding person in your Wang family.
Now that you have also been dismissed from your official position, do you think it is difficult for a hussar general to deal with a declining family?"
