Chapter 190: Behind the scenes

The book continues from the previous chapter.

After Li Zhi opened the boxes one by one, he found that except for a few boxes of gold, the rest were all jewelry.

Moreover, Li Zhi also found a seal in these boxes. After he found a piece of paper and printed it on it, he found that it turned out to be the treasure seal of King Qi Xuan.

Seeing this, Li Zhi turned his head and looked at Wang Yun, who looked gloomy and defeated, and laughed and said mockingly: "I didn't expect the prince to have such great ambitions!"

As he spoke, Li Zhi raised the royal seal in his hand, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Wang Yun, who had a gloomy look on his face, heard this and shouted sternly: "This big seal is just my collection, you idiot, don't try to set yourself up with me!"

Li Zhi heard this and shook his head with a smile: "It is up to the prince himself whether he has the intention to rebel."

As he said that, Li Zhi pointed to himself: "It's up to me to decide. As long as I insist that the prince hides the seal secretly for the purpose of treason, the prince will rebel if he doesn't!"

"..." Wang Yun was speechless after hearing this. He sat down on the ground and asked dejectedly: "What exactly does General Hussar want me to do? Please make it clear. If you can do it, I will definitely do it."

Wang Yun had no choice but to do so. He knew that Li Zhi was right. He had no official title now, so Liu Hong would definitely believe in Li Zhi even more. If Li Zhi really said that he was treason, he might really be killed by the Yi tribe.

When Li Zhi heard this, the smile on his face disappeared, and he asked seriously: "I want to ask you, is my jade pendant broken?"

"Jade pendant?" Wang Yun was shocked when he heard this. He looked at Li Zhi in disbelief and asked in a voice, "You are just for a piece of jade pendant to deal with me?!"

After asking, Wang Yun saw Li Zhi nodding his head and sighed with self-deprecation: "I didn't expect that I would be worth a jade pendant!"

After hearing this, Li Zhi shook his head, looked at Wang Yun and said seriously: "The prince is wrong! In my eyes, the prince is far inferior to my jade pendant!"

Hearing Li Zhi's humiliating words, Wang Yun became furious, scratched his neck and said, "I don't know where your jade pendant is!"

"Humph..." Hearing this, Li Zhi sneered twice, played with the Qi Xuan King's Seal in his hand, and said casually: "In this case, I will hand over this King's Seal to His Majesty and let His Majesty make a decision!"

After saying that, Li Zhi turned around and left, not even wanting the jewelry.

Seeing Li Zhi leaving immediately, Wang Yun was also shocked. He knew in his heart that if Li Zhi was really asked to report the matter to His Majesty, then he...

When Li Zhi was about to walk out of the garden, Wang Yun shouted from behind: "Hushi General, wait!"

"What?" Li Zhi paused, turned his head, and looked at Wang Yun expressionlessly: "Does the prince want to force me to stay?"

"Don't dare!" Wang Yun also regained his former composure at this time, bowed to Li Zhi and said: "I hope General Hussar will forgive me, what I just said was made out of anger.

I know where General Hussar’s jade pendant is, and I hope General Hussar will let me go.”

After Wang Yun finished speaking, he looked at Li Zhi expectantly.

It was helpless for Wang Yun to be so humble. He was not afraid of death, but there were members of the Wang family behind him. He could not die in the name of rebellion, because it would harm his family.

Li Zhi didn't really mean to leave, he just wanted to scare Wang Yun. Now that Wang Yun had given in, Li Zhi didn't make things difficult for him anymore: "That's very good. I also ask the prince to hand over my jade pendant. From now on, as long as the prince

If you don’t come to provoke me, I will never cause trouble to the prince again.”

"Alas..." Wang Yun sighed: "The jade pendant of General Hussar is indeed not on me, but on my nephew Wang Yuan. At this time, I don't know where he is."

"Wang Yuan?" Li Zhi heard this and nodded thoughtfully. Then, he ordered Yang Ying: "Boxiong, take people to investigate every brothel in Beijing to see where Wang Yuan is.

Not in the brothel."

"Here!" Yang Ying responded when he heard the words, and was about to go do it. After Li Zhi thought for a moment, he stopped him again: "Boxiong, wait a minute."

With that said, Li Zhi took off his token from his waist, handed it to Yang Ying, and told him: "Boxiong, there are countless officials in this capital, and I am afraid that someone will interfere with it. Please hold my token.

If anyone violates the order..."

At this point, Li Zhi wanted to say, "Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy." But then he thought that this was no longer on the battlefield, but in the capital, so he changed his mind and said, "Anyone who disobeys the order will be beaten severely."

!”

"Here" Yang Ying responded loudly after taking the token, and then hurried away.

After Yang Ying left, Li Zhi turned to look at Wang Yun and asked curiously: "I have nothing to do with the prince, so why does the prince want to deal with me?"

When Wang Yun heard this, he glanced at Li Zhi, sighed and said, "Sigh... That day I heard from my nephew Wang Yuan that he might have offended General Hussar.

I was so obsessed that I thought that the Cavalry General was just a battlefield warrior who didn’t know much about officialdom and was easy to deal with, so I wanted to use the name of the Cavalry General to advance to a higher level, but I didn’t expect..."

Having said this, Wang Yun sighed again, closed his eyes, and said no more words.

Li Zhi nodded when he heard the words. Wang Yun's words confirmed his suspicion. He had reached a high position when he first came to Beijing. There must be many people who wanted to use him to establish his authority. He originally thought that the person who attacked him might be

He Jin, or it could be Zhang Rang, but he didn't expect that Wang Yun, a mere Wang Yun, would take action first.

However, after a second thought, Li Zhi understood that Wang Yun was probably a chess piece pushed out by others, and the purpose was to test his depth.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi looked at Wang Yun with pity and thought in his heart: "I'm afraid this poor guy doesn't even know that he has become someone else's chess piece."

Wang Yun also noticed the pity in Li Zhi's eyes, frowned, and asked in confusion: "I wonder why General Hussar looks at me like this? Is there something wrong with me?"

When Li Zhi heard this, he lowered his head and thought to himself. He felt that he couldn't just take advantage of the man behind the scenes and cause him some trouble, so he explained to Wang Yun: "I'm afraid the prince is being used as a pawn."

When Wang Yun heard this, he was startled and asked hurriedly: "I wonder why General Hussar said this, and who took advantage of me?"

Li Zhi pointed at Wang Yun and said meaningfully: "Who is taking advantage of me? You have to ask the prince himself. Think about it carefully, has anyone mentioned me in front of the prince on ordinary days?"

Hearing this question, Wang Yun fell into deep thought. He didn't believe what Li Zhi said at first, but after he thought about what the man said in front of him in the past, he suddenly woke up. He did

That person was taken advantage of!

The more Wang Yun thought about it, the more likely it was that the man spoke ill of Li Zhi in front of him and said that Li Zhi was worthless, like a reckless man with no ideas.

Because Wang Yun was good friends with the man, he did not doubt what the man said, which caused all these things.

Seeing Wang Yun's suddenly enlightened expression, Li Zhi knew that he had a guess and hurriedly asked: "I wonder who Wang Yun was thinking of?"

?”

Wang Yun, who was awakened by Li Zhi's words, looked at Li Zhi and shook his head with a complex expression: "I have been dismissed from the official rank at this time. Isn't it convenient for me to say that person's name, lest I invite death?"

When Li Zhi heard this, he narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment. There were only a few people in the capital who could be friends with Wang Yun, and Wang Yun was quite afraid of them. Among these people, there were even fewer people who had enemies with Li Zhi.

Li Zhi eliminated these people one by one in his mind. After leaving only a few people, he asked Wang Yun: "But where can the general come in?"

Wang Yun heard this and shook his head calmly: "General Hussars, don't ask any more questions. I won't tell you. I have no official or title now. If I tell you, I'm afraid I will be silenced. I still want to live a long life."

.”

After saying that, Wang Yun closed his mouth tightly and said nothing.

However, Li Zhi had no intention of letting Wang Yun go, and continued to ask: "But those people from the Yuan family?"

When Wang Yun heard this, his face moved slightly, then returned to normal, shook his head, and remained silent.

When Li Zhi saw this, he stopped asking him. Through the slight change in Wang Yun's face, he already knew who was dealing with him behind his back.

Li Zhi looked up at the sky and thought fiercely in his heart: "What a narrow-minded Yuan Feng! Since you want to deal with me, don't blame me for fighting back!"

While Li Zhi was thinking about it, Yang Ying hurriedly walked here with people, shouting to Li Zhi as he walked: "My lord, my subordinates have found Wang Yuan!"

Li Zhi heard this, turned to look at Yang Ying, and then frowned. Seeing that Wang Yuan was not among the people Yang Ying brought, he asked in confusion: "Boxiong, since you have found Wang Yuan, why not

Bring him here?"

Hearing this, Yang Ying said with shame: "Please forgive me, my lord. After I found Wang Yuan, my subordinates wanted to bring him here, but unexpectedly, a general came out of the brothel and took Wang Yuan to the north."

In the army, subordinates dare not make decisions privately, so they can only come back and report to their lord."

"General?" Li Zhi was stunned when he heard this, and then asked hurriedly: "Has the person who calls himself a general ever left his name?"

Yang Ying thought for a while and said: "That guy seems to call himself Chunyu Qiong."

"Chun Yuqiong?" Li Zhi heard this and immediately remembered this person. Isn't this the general who served under Yuan Shao in history?

After thinking of this, Li Zhi instantly understood that this must be Yuan's handwriting again.

In the morning court today, Li Zhi cheated the Yuan family, and this was probably their revenge.

It must be that people from the Yuan family got the news from somewhere that Wang Yuan was holding the Li Zhiyu Pendant, and knew that he would definitely deal with Wang Yuan, so they protected Wang Yuan and placed him in the Northern Army.

Li Zhi is in a dilemma.

After thinking about this, Li Zhi didn't have much anger in his heart. Since he was already hostile, it was understandable that Yuan would use some despicable means to deal with him.

However, Li Zhi had no intention of letting it go and ordered Yang Ying: "Boxiong, take all these treasures to the Xun Mansion, and then meet Chunyu Qiong with me."

Yang Ying heard the words, responded, and then ordered people to carry the treasure box and hurried away.

Wang Yun, who had been silent for a long time, looked at Li Zhi with a complex expression: "General Hussar really wants to go to war with the Yuan family?"

"Hmph!" Li Zhi heard this and snorted coldly: "I won't offend anyone unless they offend me. If someone offends me... pay him back a hundred times!"
