Las Vegas.

"Then tell me more, what kind of people are these siblings?"

After being silent for a long time, Li Wuji continued to ask.

"Princess Yong'an has been living in seclusion in the capital these years and rarely shows up. I heard that she is a well-educated and reasonable person, and she is very strict in the discipline of the servants in the palace. I have never heard of anyone in Princess Yong'an's palace interacting with others outside.

There have been conflicts and disputes.”

"It is said that she is a beautiful lady that is rare to see in a century. Many noble sons in the capital have come to seek her permission, but they were all rejected by Princess Yong'an. However, those who were rejected, instead of being resentful, became more and more hostile to her.

obsessed."

"As for the little prince who was killed, although he has a distinguished status, compared with the dandies from aristocratic families in the capital, he is considered a young talent. He treats people and things well. He just has a little bad habit, that is, he likes gambling."

"Perhaps it's because I have been a proton for many years. After all, being imprisoned in this capital, it is difficult to get ahead. I am like a caged bird, always yearning for the outside world."

Cao Zian thought carefully and told everything he knew, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

After listening to Cao Zian's story, Li Wuji couldn't help but become interested in the siblings, but what he didn't expect was that the little prince who longed for freedom would eventually be used as a pawn to bring him down.

"How did you do what I asked you to do?"

After Li Wuji pondered for a moment, he asked calmly.

"Go back to me, sir, it's been done."

Cao Zian nodded and said respectfully, deliberately lowering his voice.

"Okay, follow the plan."

Li Wuji smiled with satisfaction and said slowly.

"yes."

Cao Zian agreed and slowly exited the room.

Li Wuji sat alone in the room, drinking tea and lost in thought.

As he gradually appeared in everyone's field of vision, he seemed to have made more and more enemies, just because he was no longer the young master Wuji hiding in the Nine Nether Realm.

Ti Long has not appeared recently. That is because he was leading Tianshu on Li Wuji's orders to secretly trace Tu Jiu's true identity and the matter of the blood baby mentioned by Cao Zian.

It seems that from the moment Li Wuji decided to take revenge, this seemingly peaceful capital was really no longer peaceful.

...

Two days later.

The first floor in the world.

"Sir, Your Majesty is here, and the carriage is outside."

"Tong Zhuo sent a message and asked the young master to go out to greet him."

Cao Zian knocked on Li Wuji's door and said slowly.

After hearing what Cao Zian said, Li Wuji, who was working on a new project, frowned. After a moment of hesitation, he slowly stood up and walked out.

"Sir, is it because of the murder of the young prince?"

Cao Zian followed behind and asked in a lowered voice.

“You’ll know after you go and see it.”

Li Wuji smiled, replied casually, came to the first floor, and walked straight out.

In front of the building gate, a carriage stopped quietly at the foot of the stone steps. Tong Zhuo stood upright beside the carriage shaft, his eyes as bright as a torch, observing the surroundings.

"I have met His Highness."

Li Wuji came directly to the carriage and bowed with his hands in hand.

"Come up."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jingyao's voice came from the carriage.

Li Wuji smiled, got on the carriage directly, and walked into the carriage.

As Li Wuji got on the carriage, Tong Zhuo sat back on the carriage, flicked the reins, and drove the carriage toward the other end of the street.

Cao Zian and Lu Yuan looked at each other, got on Li Wuji's carriage next to them, and followed behind.

In the carriage, Li Jingyao leaned back leisurely, looking at Li Wuji sitting next to her, with a deep smile on her lips.

"Where are you going to take His Highness?"

Li Wuji smiled and asked slowly.

"As I said last time, I would like to try your famous Dongducheng barbecue if I have the opportunity. I have free time today, so I specially invite you to go with me."

Li Jingyao explained with a smile.

"So that's it. Since His Highness wants to eat it, just send someone to tell me next time. I can personally bring the things to the palace for His Highness to taste."

Li Wuji finally understood and said with a smile.

"That would lose the fun. Besides, after being stuck in the palace all day, I also want to go out and walk around more, see new people and things, which is good for the body and mind."

Li Jingyao shook her head and said with emotion.

Li Wuji smiled and said nothing more.

He knew in his heart that Li Jingyao's visit today was not just for tasting delicious food.

"What are you going to do about the murder of Ling Guo's proton?"

Li Jingyao was silent for a while and then spoke again.

really.

"Since this matter has been tried by the Five Elements Division, just wait for the result. I believe that the Five Elements Division can get to the bottom of this matter and make it clear next time."

Li Wuji replied with a smile.

"But as far as I know, Ambassador Leng Zhen and you have always been at odds with each other. There have been many frictions before, so you are not afraid..."

Li Jingyao sighed, stopped mid-sentence, and looked at Li Wuji seriously.

"With His Majesty and His Highness here, I believe Lord Leng will not avenge himself."

Li Wuji smiled and said with an indifferent expression.

"You are very generous. It seems that my worries are unnecessary."

"But this matter can be big or small. If you are really involved in this matter, I'm afraid it won't end well in the end."

"After all, it is Ling Guo's proton who died. If we cannot give a satisfactory answer, the Ling Guo Dynasty will definitely not give up."

Li Jingyao said meaningfully.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

"Your Highness is worried that Ling Guoguo will take the opportunity to attack me, Li Guo, or even start an army?"

Li Wuji raised his hands in thanks, and then asked tentatively.

"No, Ling Guo will not easily raise an army, but he will definitely seek an explanation from our court. I am just thinking that some people may want Ling Guo to raise an army."

Li Jingyao shook her head and said thoughtfully.

After hearing Li Jingyao's words, Li Wuji couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and he suddenly understood.

The person Li Jingyao said who hoped that the Ling Kingdom would raise an army was probably the Empress!

There has been a truce between the two countries for seven years, and Liguo's military strength has become stronger and stronger. With the empress's methods, if Lingguo raises troops at this time, Liguo can take this opportunity to expand its territory again!

A war between two countries is no different than a fight between local gangsters. As long as one side is strong enough and ruthless enough, it will naturally be easier to win the world!

But he didn't expect that the person who wanted to overthrow him would actually make a good move for the empress by mistake! Invisibly, a fire was lit!

"Your Highness, someone has been following us. It seems to be Lan Ying's people."

At this moment, Tong Zhuo, who was driving the car, said softly.

After hearing Tongzhuo's words, Li Wuji and Li Jingyao looked at each other and each came back from their thoughts.

"I'm afraid it's for you, right?"

Li Jingyao looked at Li Wuji and asked with a smile.

"The Department of Five Elements is working for His Majesty. It's understandable what the responsibilities are."

"To be honest with you, Your Highness, in addition to someone secretly monitoring me these past two days, there are also spies from the Five Elements Division outside Las Vegas. As you said, Lord Leng is still suspicious of me."

Li Wuji smiled bitterly and said slowly.

"Do you need me to step forward?"

Li Jingyao asked with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for taking the trouble. I don't think so. Otherwise, Master Leng would really think that I am using Your Highness to excuse myself. I am not afraid of shadows, so just let her go."

Li Wuji shook his head and said.

"That's fine."

"But since I invite you to taste delicious food today, I don't want to be spoiled by some cats and dogs."

"Tong Zhuo, let someone send them away. Marquis Liyang is here to relax with me. If they don't accept it, let Leng Yue come in person!"

Li Jingyao smiled and said loudly to Tong Zhuo outside the carriage.

"yes!"

Tongzhuo agreed and winked at the men hiding in the crowd on the side of the street. Immediately, several figures broke away from the crowd and approached the sneaky people who were secretly following the carriage.

After a long time, the carriage finally stopped in front of Zibo Jumen.

Accompanied by Li Wuji, Li Jingyao, who left the palace incognito, visited the entire restaurant with great interest, and finally followed Li Wuji up to the third floor and sat in a private room.
