ily, and other three families from Xishan province can all attest to this. Hundreds of soldiers who were present that day can also testify. The Long family indeed intended to rebel, at least by wieldi...Chapter 788: No Need to Look

Xiao Tiannan and Shi Xuanwei were certainly not fools.

But they couldn't.

From the moment He Kunhao spent five thousand taels to acquire that jade stone and handed it to them, they gradually fell deeper into its trap.

It's not that I lack willpower, but he gives me too much.

Now both of them are thinking, why is He Kun being so generous Obviously, he has a purpose, and he's also very capable.

They can't refuse these benefits, so just take them down.

Wait until He Kun reveals his purpose before you look.

If it can be done, that would be best.

If they couldn't finish the task, they patted their butts and followed the delegation away. Could He Kun possibly chase after them to Liao

This way of thinking made both of them feel more at ease.

Looking at the two men laughing and each holding a few beautiful women as they walked away, He Kun's smile became even brighter.

Shixuan Wei and Xiao Tiannan had just left when someone came in from outside and knelt halfway in front of He Kun.

"Mr. He, the gifts you requested are all arranged."

He Kun nodded in satisfaction, picked up his chopsticks and popped a peanut into his mouth. He said, "All of you, cheer up! Your most important task now is to take good care of those two people. If anything goes wrong, none of your heads will be safe."

The man, kneeling on one knee, immediately bowed his head and said, "Please rest assured, Lord He. I will definitely do a good job."

"Well done, it was worth all the effort I put in, finding so many people to perform a play just for them."

He Kun nodded in satisfaction, then got up and said, "Alright, I'll go report to the Crown Prince. As soon as they come out, I'll send a message over immediately."

"Yes."

......

Zhao Mansion.

Zhao Xuanji was sitting in his study, looking over several letters.

Before him, the unassuming middle-aged man was still reporting.

"Grand Elder, there is still no news of the young master."

The middle-aged man's expression wasn't very good. He cautiously glanced at Zhao Xuanji's face and then said, "Should we expand the scope and search the entire Jingji region"

Zhao Xuance put down the letter and said calmly, “There’s no need to look. This old man already knows who hid him.”

Looking in the direction of the East Palace, Zhao Xuanji said with icy indifference: "In this capital city, besides the Crown Prince, who else has the ability to hide Tai Lai so that no one knows"

The middle-aged man looked solemn, but he dared not speak.

With a long sigh, Zhao Xuanji muttered to himself, “It’s fate. Tai Lai has always been unlearned and incompetent, but this time, it seems like he’s facing great danger and great fortune. The only thing I don’t understand is how he knew about this. It was kept so tightly under wraps!”

The middle-aged man cautiously asked, "What about Wen Wang"

"How about Wen Wang!"

Zhao Xuanji suddenly raised his voice and sneered, "If this old man were still fixated on the position of Chief Assistant to the Cabinet, then naturally he would fear this prince who wields great power. But if this old man is determined to turn this world upside down, what could Prince Wen do to me!"

Seemingly having made up his mind, Zhao Xuanji said in a grave voice, "Go to Prince Zhao's residence and ask Prince Zhao to see me as soon as possible."

The middle-aged man didn't understand why Zhao Xuanji had to meet Li Yinhou at this critical juncture, but he could only obey Zhao Xuanji's orders. He immediately replied, "I will go right away."

Half an hour after his departure, a carriage stopped at the back gate of Zhao Mansion. Li Yinhu, shrouded in a black robe, entered through the back gate and headed straight for Zhao Xuanji's study.officials, court expenditures, soldiers' wages, and disaster relief, all had regulations and procedures. The national treasury only collected taxes each year, which was insufficient to cover everythin...
