Chapter 3040 Begging for Mercy

Gu Jinan laughed angrily: "You really believed his lies."

Wei Xiao said: "I am not an ignorant village woman. I kept him alive for three months just to make use of his magical powers."

Gu Jinan remained silent, raising his hand and squeezing his head that was in pain due to staying up late. After his mind became clearer, he said, "What if this is Ning Ji's fault? Three months is not a short time, and he has been very busy during this period." It might cause trouble."

He emphasized his tone again and said: "Now that you have taken action, you should eradicate the roots in time. When the end is near, suddenly changing your mind is a big taboo!"

Gu Dewang nodded heavily: "Yes, Brother Wei, this may be Ning Ji's delaying strategy, maybe he is holding back something bad."

"Shut up Gu Dewang, this is not the village's water well where people talk about right and wrong. Please speak politely and don't lose David's face!" Wei Xiao scolded Gu Dewang and deducted his salary for three months. After that, his unhappiness finally eased. Quite a few.

After thinking for a while, he said: "In these three months, Ning Ji will be imprisoned in the sky prison. Moreover, he is a civil servant and has no soldiers. Even if he makes a rebellion, he will not cause any big chaos. I can suppress him."

Haha, Gu Jinan laughed out loud: "Can you hold it back? Your Majesty has the courage of the gods, but have you forgotten that your mount is not a divine beast, but a skinny and sick horse? How can it withstand another heavy blow?" ?!”

Bang!

Wei Xiao was so angry that he smashed a tea cup and said angrily: "Gu Jin'an, how dare you call David a sick horse? You don't want to live anymore!"

Gu Jinan was not afraid at all, and even kicked away the tea cup that fell in front of him, saying: "Isn't it true? If your Majesty wants to hear good things, I will also say it, but does your Majesty want me to say it?!"

Wei Xiao was so angry that he almost trembled. However, what he wanted was a hard-working minister, not a flattering clown, so he could only endure it: "Go down first. I will discuss this matter with Mr. Feng tomorrow."

Gu Jinan bowed respectfully: "Wei Chen, please retire."

He added: "Your Majesty, I have already warned you about the hidden dangers of leaving Ning Ji behind."

If something happens, don't blame us!

"Get lost!" Wei Xiao was really angry, pointing at Gu Dewang and said: "Don't imitate him!"

One Gu Jinan was enough for him, but if there was another one, he was really afraid that he would not be able to help but stab someone with a knife.

Gu Dewang hurriedly licked his smile and said: "Your Majesty is indeed a wise king, and he is tolerant of others. I am a petty person, so I must learn more from your Majesty."

He also told Wei Xiao some good news: "Your Majesty, the wealthy businessmen from all over the Jianghuai River have learned the good news of your accession to the throne, and are about to raise money and food to donate to the court to congratulate Your Majesty on your accession to the throne."

David was in urgent need of money and food to fight the war. After hearing this, Wei Xiao looked better and said, "It's done well. Who started it? Is it reliable?"

Gu Dewang said: "It's Boss An and Dong Dong's family. They have a store in the capital. After His Majesty ascended the throne, they came to me and told me about this... They are people I have known for many years and can be trusted."

Boss An, Dong Dong's family, and Wei Xiao heard from Qin Sanlang that these two families had been doing business with the Gu family for many years and had never seen anything wrong.

but……

Wei Xiao still explained: "Keep an eye on it. Don't plunder people's money and grain and use it as your own property to donate to get credit. Anyone who dares to offend will have the entire clan punished!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, don't worry, I will keep an eye on you...I know a lot of people in Jianghuai." Gu Dewang was slightly proud, he had a lot of informants.

Wei Xiao looked unhappy and cursed: "Be careful yourself. Don't make a knife for someone without knowing it! If you are really fooled, find a place to end it yourself. Don't die in front of me and dirty my eyes." !”

"Yes, your Majesty, don't worry." Gu Dewang asked again: "Brother Wei, is there anything else you need? If not, I will withdraw first. I'm so sleepy."

After successfully being scolded, he was able to leave Si'an Hall.

However, I have to say that Wei Xiao was very pleased with Gu Dewang's idleness and occasionally calling Wei Xiao Brother Wei. As for Qi Kangming and Gu Dexing, who only immersed themselves in work, they were not so favored.

…

The next day, surprisingly, there was no quarrel in the court regarding Ning Ji's arrest.

After the dynasty was over, Wei Xiao summoned Mr. Feng to Sian Palace and told him that he wanted to spare Ning Ji's life.

Mr. Feng said: "Brother An has already told me...just stay."

Wei Xiao was overjoyed: "Sir, if you agree to keep him, aren't you afraid it will be a trap?"

Mr. Feng sighed: "I heard you said that he has magical powers. There are some things that I would rather believe that he has than not. It would be better to keep him for three months in exchange for some information."

Wei Xiao was very happy to see someone supporting him: "Since sir also agrees, then the matter is settled."

Soon, Ning Ji received the news that he could live for three more months. He smiled, looking forward to Wei Xiao's expression when he took over the throne... I guess he was shocked at his own stupidity and wanted to kill him. Save yourself.

And Gu Jinli, a witch who had never dealt with him in his previous life, distrusted him from the beginning in this life, which eventually caused him to separate from Qin Sanlang.

I really want to see how that bitch would react when the news of Qin Sanlang's murder came and the heads of the two brats fell in front of her?

It must be very broken, it must be very hopeless.

Oh, it's okay to collapse and despair. In his previous life, when he was defeated and died tragically, he was also extremely desperate!

And in this life, he will not make the same mistakes again.

…

Ning Ji was like a mad dog, always secretly staring at Gu Jinli, looking for opportunities to harm her, but Gu Jinli didn't want to pay attention to his affairs at all. I heard that he was caught, and I heard that Wei Xiao did not kill him immediately and wanted to keep him for a while. At that time, he just frowned and didn't pay much attention.

At this moment, she was comforting Da Lang: "Da Lang, if you don't like the palace, we won't go. Don't be afraid. Your parents will support you."

The little guy hasn't cried much since he was born, but when he came home yesterday, he actually cried.

She cried so hard that after listening to Supervisor Zhong's report, she realized that the cause of the incident was Wei Xiao.

"Why don't you like to talk? Even if you are precocious, know a lot, and learn quickly, you should still pretend not to understand and ask the adults, or make trouble with the adults. If you keep silent, others will spread the word that you are sick. You will You will bring shame to the Duke of Qin, you know?!"

When Da Lang first listened, it was nothing. But when Wei Xiao saw that he was too calm, he arranged for a group of palace people to say bad things about Da Lang.

"Is there something wrong with Prince Qin's brain? Why don't you say anything?"

"What a pity, the prince of the Duke of Qin's palace is actually a fool!"

After Dalang heard these words, he immediately ordered the imperial guards who were protecting him to arrest the palace people and take them to Wei Xiao: "Your Majesty, they have violated the law."

Wei Xiao wanted to laugh: "Do you still know the word "criminal"?

Da Lang nodded and repeated the bad words said by these palace people: "Your Majesty, please punish them, otherwise the Qin family will be embarrassed."

However, Wei Xiao did not punish the palace people, but told Dalang: "This is what I ordered them to do. Although you are precocious, you are too reticent. I can only use this method to force you to speak... Now It’s just that the palace people are talking about you like this. If you continue to be dull, people all over the capital will say bad things about your brain, so you have to get rid of this bad habit, you know?!"

After hearing this, Da Lang felt nothing at the time, but after returning home, he could no longer bear the grievance. He lay in Gu Jinli's arms and cried: "Mom, my cousin lied to Da Lang. Da Lang doesn't like this... Da Lang is harmless. You’ve done nothing wrong, you just like to keep quiet, so why does my cousin force the big wolf?”
