Chapter 1324
“Those two said…you are all fools, you won’t even know how you die in the future!” After the steward finished speaking, he immediately looked away in fear, not daring to look at anyone.
As the steward of the Lan Yu Manor, how could he not know what kind of people his master and these ancestors were? He would explode upon hearing such words.
And in reality, it turned out just as he had thought.
Many dukes, marquises, and military officials, including Lan Yu, immediately flew into a rage and began to curse: "Bullshit! Damn it! When have we ever been insulted like that? You're asking for death!"
"Hmph! Where is he? I'm going to go and rip his tongue out myself!"
"This guy won't get away with dying a good death today!"
"..."
They were a group of people with the strongest murderous aura.
At this moment, their angry glares were enough to inspire fear in anyone who looked upon them. Even the steward of the Duke of Liang's mansion, who had seen many storms, couldn't help but tremble with fear.
Lan Yu's lower eyelids twitched slightly, and she narrowed her eyes with murderous intent, saying to the butler, "Bring them in. We can use these two to sharpen our knives first!"
"Yes... Master..." the butler wiped away his cold sweat, responded, and then left.
Zhang Wen watched the butler's departing figure, his gaze suddenly becoming distant as he pondered, "Hiss... those two people who appeared out of nowhere."
"To dare to provoke and insult so many dukes and military officials... this just doesn't seem right no matter how you look at it—if they were just two ordinary people, they would want to run as far away as possible when faced with the arrogant military officials of Huaixi, but these two are openly courting death..."
"In the heat of the moment, I finally came up with a temporary solution. I'm afraid it might cause some unexpected complications?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Wen couldn't help but feel inexplicably worried.
While they were pondering this, someone brought over the two men who had been spouting nonsense at the door.
Surprisingly, they were two middle-aged men dressed as Confucian scholars, who seemed knowledgeable and reasonable, and did not appear to be reckless people who would speak wildly.
These two people.
It was Wang Chen and Luo Hongzhi, the secret agents who rushed to the Duke of Liang's mansion as soon as they heard the news from Beiping Prefecture and the imperial edict.
When he saw a group of dukes, marquises and military officers appear before him.
Although the two were being pushed forward with their arms clamped, they immediately exchanged a surprised glance.
"Originally, I only planned to persuade Lan Yu first, and then have Lan Yu take the lead in stirring up trouble in Yingtian Prefecture... But it turns out that many of the high-ranking dukes, marquises, and military officers from the Huaixi noble faction are here, which makes things even more convenient!"
"When luck comes, there's no stopping it; it's truly a stroke of divine intervention!"
They looked disheveled on the surface, but they were overjoyed inside, feeling that things were going too smoothly and that great things were about to be accomplished!
After standing in front of Lan Yu and the others.
The two men were kicked in the knees by a servant of the mansion. Wang Chen and Luo Hongzhi looked pained and knelt down with a thud.
However, neither of them showed any fear or panic on their faces.
He merely eased the pain in his knees slightly before kneeling upright before the crowd, calmly bowing and saying, "I am Wang Chen/Luo Hongzhi, paying my respects to the Duke of Liang, and to all the dukes, marquises, and generals!"
Lan Yu drew his precious sword from his waist, lifted Wang Chen's chin with the tip of the blade, and said with a sharp gaze, "So it was you who were spouting nonsense in front of my manor? I thought you were someone important! Since you can't speak properly, then you don't need your tongue at all."
After saying that, Lan Yu raised her knife, intending to twist it into Wang Chen's mouth.
Fortunately, Wang Chen remained calm under pressure and immediately opened his eyes wide in panic to defend himself: "Lord Liang, please wait! I did not mean what I said, but I wanted to get a personal audience with you so that I could do some planning for you."
