Chapter 2960 Mutation, Death without Evidence [17]
Won’t you do things that are unpopular again?
Haha, don’t you think it’s too late to say this now?
Meng Shanhu mocked in his heart, but looking at Wei Xiao as if he was in trance, he felt a sense of fear again... It was unusual for Wei Xiao to be so silent despite being in a desperate situation, he must be planning something big. No, he must inform His Majesty of Wei Xiao's strange behavior.
Meng Shanhu took advantage of the prison guard's delivery of food and used the guard's body to cover him up. He wrote down Wei Xiao's strange behavior on the ground and asked the prison guard to quickly report it to Wei Qi's people.
After seeing it, the prison guard did not dare to neglect and hurried to report the news.
Wei Xiao saw their every move and thought it was ridiculous. He looked up at Meng Shanhu. He wanted to say something but suddenly lowered his head and continued to meditate... He would suffer losses many times, all because of his contempt for others. Now that you have decided to change, you must resist ridiculing Meng Shanhu.
But what he did made Meng Shanhu even more frightened. He wanted to ask but didn't dare, so he could only hold back and wait for Wei Qi's order.
After Wei Qi received the news, he only panicked for a moment before calming down and ordered: "No need to make a fuss, just keep watching."
But……
The leader of the dead soldiers said: "Wei Chen is worried that Prince Wei wants to kill everything."
Wei Qi smiled: "Even if he wants to defeat the enemy, it will take time to gather enough troops. But by the time the army arrives, he may have already gone to the underworld to fulfill his filial piety."
Ning Ji had already left the capital and went to the Mu Mountain area to watch Wei Xiao's men looking for clues. Before leaving, Ning Ji revealed a huge piece of good news to him. If the news was true, Wei Xiao's son would not have much life left.
However, he could not take it lightly and ordered: "Keep an eye on it and continue the layout. Keep all the chess pieces firmly for me to make sure there are no mistakes."
He also personally wrote a secret letter and gave it to the leader of the dead soldiers: "Send it to the Marquis of Zhou and ask him to bring the two things I need quickly."
When Meng Shuyu's case first came out, he was also afraid that Wei Xiao would rise up to seize the throne because he couldn't stand being wronged, so he asked Zhou Huang to issue a secret military order, and ordered the soldiers and horses from Mushan Camp to rush to the capital to defend. Zhou Huang also said , there was an important person in Mushan Camp. He was afraid that the person would disappear, so he had to bring him to see him in person.
He agreed, but Mushan was some distance away from the capital, and it would take a lot of effort to go back and forth. Now the soldiers, horses and people have not reached the capital yet.
"Yes." The leader of the dead soldiers took the secret letter and left to go about his errands.
After Meng Shanhu received the news, he continued to stare at Wei Xiao, but for the next two days, Wei Xiao just sat quietly, not moving except for drinking water and going to the toilet.
It wasn't until the third day that Mr. Qin brought Nan Yu to visit the prison. When Wei Xiao saw Mr. Qin, he showed a long-lost sincere smile on his face and said guiltily: "I'm sorry for making grandpa worry."
Mr. Qin knew that Meng Shanhu and the others were from Wei Qi, so he didn't say much. He only said: "A little bit of food will make you wiser. If you can be released from prison safely, I hope you will be humble in the future and don't be arrogant again."
No matter how powerful you are, you still have to remain humble. Just because you are as powerful as Emperor Jingyuan, you cannot be the enemy of the world.
"Yes, I will remember grandpa's teachings and won't do it again in the future." Wei Xiao said in a dry voice. He was glad that his grandpa was still willing to teach him and that he could still listen to his advice.
Mr. Qin nodded: "As long as you understand. Hui Niang and the children are fine, and the three daughters-in-law in Prince Qin's palace are also fine. Zongzheng has managed the palace in an orderly manner, and is planning to donate more silver to the Ministry of War. I thought you could gain some good reputation, but she doesn’t dare to make the decision privately, so let me ask you what you mean, do you agree?”
Wei Xiao refused: "Zong Zheng has already donated a dowry to the Ministry of War before. Now there is no need to donate anymore. I can just stay at home for the New Year and manage the palace well for my king."
"Sure, grandpa will tell her." Mr. Qin nodded in agreement.
Wei Xiao looked at Nan Yu, who had been silent, and saw that he was still covering his abdomen, and sneered: "Leave with minor injuries?"
I was slightly injured, I was mute due to the poison, I was hit by several arrows in the abdomen, and almost died, even if I was seriously injured!
Wei Xiao added: "Do you have anything to say? If you do, please tell me quickly."
Nan Yu's body was poisoned by Gu Jinli, and he wanted to use Wei Xiao's power to take revenge, so he had no choice but to confess honestly.
Because he was mute, he took a lime pen and slowly wrote what happened on the floor tiles.
The Duke of Qin's mansion was heavily guarded. Wei Xiao only got the news released by Gu Jinli. He knew that Nan Yu had done something stupid and was punished by Gu Jinli, but he didn't know that Nan Yu had actually set his sights on Brother You!
Hahaha, he really gave Nan Yu too much face, making this slave dog forget his own identity, so he wouldn't have to feel guilty when he kills him after he ascends to the throne.
When Nan Yu saw that Wei Xiao just sneered after reading it and said nothing, he quickly wrote: Master, I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I will definitely be able to help you!
If it were in the past, Wei Xiao would definitely be furious, but now he can't fall out with Nan Yu, otherwise Nan Yu is very likely to be lured away... It is absolutely impossible for people with great poison skills to turn into corpses unless they are turned into corpses. Get away from him!
Wei Xiao said: "Now is the time to employ people. You have made a lot of contributions in the past. I will spare your life for the time being and will not break the contract. But if you dare to act recklessly again and hurt my relatives, I promise that you will I will wipe out your entire clan and write history books to make your clan infamy for eternity!"
Relatives?
Does Wei Xiao actually treat the Qin, Gu, and Luo families as relatives? Is this a sincere statement or a calculated statement in desperate need of help?
Nan Yu couldn't be sure, but he couldn't let the family be infamy for thousands of years, so he hurriedly wrote: Master, don't worry, this slave has learned a big lesson, and he doesn't dare to plot against the Qin, Gu, and Luo families again.
Wei Xiao sneered: "I've given you advice. It's up to you whether to change it or not. If you don't change it, you will bear the consequences."
Mr. Qin finally felt a little relieved after watching the whole process... After this day, Brother Xiao finally became more sensible and was willing to treat the Gu family as relatives.
In the cell opposite, Meng Shanhu was extremely anxious... Why would he not break the contract? What agreement did Prince Wei and Nan Yu have? If he knew about this agreement, he should be able to get His Majesty to conquer Nan Yu!
Mr. Qin and Nan Yu only stayed in the prison for two quarters of an hour before leaving.
After they left, Wei Xiao returned to his previous state of meditating, but he started to eat... The three days of fasting were his punishment. Now that the family feud has not been avenged and his great cause has not been accomplished, he has to take care of his body so that he can fight back with strength.
Meng Shanhu wrote a letter, writing down what happened today when Mr. Qin and Nan Yu visited the prison, and asked the prison guards to send it to Wei Qi. He also reminded Wei Qi: Your Majesty, as long as the agreement between Wei Xiao and Nan Yu is found out, Winning over Nan Yu is not a problem.
In the past, Wei Qi wanted to win over Nan Yu. After all, Nan Yu had an impressive ability in treating poisons, but now he felt it was unnecessary. He asked someone to reply to Meng Shanhu and continued to stare at Wei Xiao. Then he ignored it and just waited. Looking for news about Ning Ji and Zhou Huang... I hope they can bring him great good news and completely cut off Wei Xiao's way of survival.
…
The people of the Feng family arrived near Mushan earlier than Ning Ji. Now they have been squatting in the village near Mushan for several days. Relying on the familiarity of Da Feng's secret army with this land, they finally found the man in the vast sea of people. The so-called Granny Zhang who has changed her surname to Shi.
