In the Liu family's study room.
The conspirators were silent for a moment.
There was a lone lamp on the desk, and its orange halo could only cover a small half of the room.
The light shining on the faces of Liu Zian and Liu Zilin was dim. As for the Jade Fairy, she was habitually hiding in the darkness behind the house in a black robe.
However, after hearing Liu Ziwen's words, the three of them were all stunned, as if they suspected that their ears had heard wrongly.
After the three of them looked at each other and silently exchanged glances, they determined that it was impossible for three people to have auditory hallucinations at the same time.
"Brother, this is the best idea... to kill someone with a borrowed knife?"
Liu Zian asked in a low voice.
"It's a matter of substituting something for another."
Liu Ziwen shook his head and said:
"It doesn't count as borrowing a knife to kill, because the knife is actually still ours, but it was just replaced quietly."
Seeing that only Liu Zian seemed to understand but not understand, Liu Zilin and the Yuxi female fairy were still puzzled.
Liu Ziwen sat down in front of the desk, crossed his hands and supported his chin.
The paper oil lamp on the right side of the desk illuminated his ordinary Chinese character face to every detail.
This brought a lot of pressure to everyone in the room who gathered their gazes.
It's not that the Liu family head's gaze is aggressive or oppressive.
On the contrary, his eyes were calm and unruffled.
But like the young county magistrate in Longcheng County, Liu Ziwen could bring some invisible pressure to the people around him just by being silent.
Because everyone around him has to pay attention to and pay attention to his attitude and expression at all times. This is actually a survival instinct of respecting the strong and admiring the wise.
Therefore, Ouyang Rong and Liu Ziwen are the same type of people to a certain extent.
Having resources and authority, and being able to optimally allocate and utilize them, is like a queen in an ant nest. She can build a set of order around her, making people rely on her, and gain an advantage in the struggle for external resources.
The Jade Immortal has always felt that this kind of people are more terrifying than Qi Practitioners.
Because most of the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty was in the hands of this type of people, in addition to the world's inner and outer world, the order of the ten realms in the world was constructed by this type of people, so they have the power, Rather than the other way around.
"The ribbon-cutting ceremony scene I told you a few days ago was still not exciting enough. Now I will make a slight change. Second brother and third brother, you can listen to it."
Liu Ziwen suddenly spoke, looked at everyone, and muttered softly:
"On July 15th, during the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Supervisory Envoy Shen and Governor Wang came to Di Gongzha. Ouyang County Magistrate, together with all the gentry, villagers, elders and fellow villagers in the county, wholeheartedly welcomed them and gave them a warm welcome.
"The ribbon-cutting ceremony has not yet begun. At the waterside ceremony platform, in full view of everyone, Magistrate Ouyang suddenly became violent and stabbed Mr. Shen, the supervisor at his side. Then, taking advantage of the shock of the entire audience, he jumped into the Butterfly Creek and fled in fear of crime.
"The murder weapon was poisonous. Mr. Shen failed to rescue him and died suddenly on the spot. The ribbon-cutting ceremony was chaotic. Mr. Wang, the governor of Jiangzhou, was grieved. He stood up calmly and stabilized the audience. As the highest official present, he temporarily took over the situation in Longcheng. Liu and others The gentry and rural sages actively cooperated.
"Master Wang is a wise and powerful man with thunderous methods. He eradicated all the remnants of the former county magistrate's direct lineage. He commanded the Longcheng County Office and concentrated on investigating the serious murder case. Ouyang Lianghan was wanted throughout the county and the whole state. He also carefully took care of the funeral of his colleague Master Shen. He was very orderly. .
"Subsequently, with the help of kind-hearted people or the Liu family, the body of Ouyang Lianghan who committed suicide out of fear was found somewhere in Longcheng County. Corresponding personal and material evidence was left at the scene, indicating his motive for attacking Shangguan...or a private person. Grudges...or trance and madness.
"No matter what, the evidence has been conclusive before. The public execution of officials is a certainty. Mr. Wang has completely solved the case and brought it to a perfect conclusion.
"Master Wang temporarily took charge of the affairs of Longcheng County. He accepted the wise voices of the people, corrected all the perverse actions of the former county magistrate, abolished the Broken Wing Canal, and restored a peaceful world to the thousands of people in Longcheng County! He was also supported by the virtuous gentry in the countryside. Reluctantly, Mr. Wang Shiran returned to Jiangzhou and reported to the court to handle the follow-up matters.
"And in the Longcheng County left behind, all the people who were an eyesore and blocked the road were dead. Oh, it's completely white. It's really clean."
Under the dim candlelight, Liu Ziwen sighed with emotion toward the other three people in the room. His face seemed to be longing for a while, and he sighed and said:
"How's it going? Does it sound pleasant?"
Liu Zi'an, Liu Zilin and the Yuxi female fairy looked at each other with a mixture of shock and confusion.
The room was quiet for a while, and Liu Zian was the first to break the silence.
He stared at the puzzled Jade Fairy, but he asked Liu Ziwen, who was above him:
"First steal a beam to change a pillar, and then use a knife to kill people... Brother, how to change the beam to a pillar, I think this is the key point, how to replace the 'liang' with a 'pillar'."
"Good question."
Liu Ziwen glanced at his second brother approvingly, and then his eyes fell on the black-robed priestess at the back of the room:
"Excuse me, Fairy Jade. Before the ribbon-cutting ceremony, I need to deal with Ouyang Lianghan first. Then you can transform into him, and you can fake the real one. Then take Shen Xisheng to Di Gongzha for the ribbon-cutting ceremony. The whole process does not require you to transform for too long. , Shen Xisheng should be the most defenseless against 'you'.
"As for how to sing the play at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, you have heard what I just said. Just follow the performance. Just pay attention to one thing. You have to kill people in front of the whole audience, in front of Ouyang Lianghan's face, and then dive into the water. Run away, someone will pick you up, and Mr. Wang and I will handle the rest."
The Jade Fairy frowned, but her face was covered with colorful paint, and no wrinkles could be seen for a while.
She said coldly:
"Yes, yes, it's not casual to kill a weak scholar. Ouyang Lianghan and Shen Xisheng can kill them casually. But the problem is, that Confucian Qi practitioner named Xie Lingjiang, I Xian may be temporarily defeated.
"She seems to be following Ouyang Lianghan all day long. I just told you that this woman may have taken some weird shortcut and has been promoted to the seventh rank.
"Unless...you are now fully helping me to practice broken products?"
Liu Ziwen frowned slightly and interrupted: "Even if you reach the seventh level, don't you still have a draw at most? Can you guarantee victory?"
"..."
The Jade Fairy's face seemed to be a little red in the darkness, and her voice became colder:
"Hmph, my Immortal sect is not good at vulgar fighting... Well, you also said that I can't defeat Xie Lingjiang, then Master Liu should think about what to do, how to kill Ouyang Liang Han, I don’t have this ability anyway?”
Liu Ziwen did not look at her, but looked at Liu Zilin and asked:
"How is the swordsman from Chang'an doing lately?"
"Brother, it's still the same as before. In Nanxuan Xiaoyuan, we have plenty of fish and meat every day, and we have plenty of sweet-scented osmanthus. I'm envious of my third brother. He is a little bit fond of the sword forged in the Jia San Sword Furnace, but he has never been able to put it down. Urging us, it’s like we’re drunk and dreaming of death on the rooftop.”
Liu Ziwen was silent for a while, nodded and said:
"There is no need to delay any longer. Swords are foreign objects. Important matters are important. The Liu family does not lack this sword. Even if it is a little special... you can go look for it tomorrow morning."
"yes, Sir."
Liu Zilin still looked a little aching.
That sword made by the old gentleman, let alone a middle-grade Qi practitioner, might not be difficult even if it was Yunmeng Jianze, the legendary first lady with hair as bright as a candle.
Liu Ziwen faced the suspicious-looking Jade Fairy and wrote lightly:
"I won't let you go alone. When the time comes, a swordsman will accompany you to take Ouyang Lianghan's head. You two can discuss whether to divert the tiger away from the mountain or crush it with a thunderous force.
"A top mid-level Qi practitioner swordsman, plus an eighth-level Fang magician, to deal with a Confucian Qi practitioner who seems to have just been promoted to the seventh level... It doesn't matter if he kills the chicken with a sledgehammer.
"But Xie's daughter will be killed as little as possible, and don't be merciful if she gets in the way. When Ouyang Lianghan is defeated, you will replace Tao and others, do you understand."
"Okay. The head of the Liu family is looking for a reliable swordsman."
The Jade Fairy snorted coldly, seeming a little unhappy.
Liu Zian glanced at the black-robed priestess shrewdly and promised on behalf of his eldest brother:
"Don't worry, Fairy, the Liu family will give you nothing less. As long as things come true, there is no chance that you will use that family's special blood as a blood sacrifice."
Having said this, he immediately turned away from the topic and pointed out:
"Brother, in this wonderful drama of yours, there is one point that needs to be discussed a little bit."
Liu Ziwen didn't look surprised and asked:
"Second brother, are you talking about the place where Ouyang Lianghan committed suicide out of fear of crime?"
"That's right."
Liu Zian nodded and sighed:
"The idea of fleeing and committing suicide out of fear of crime after the ribbon-cutting ceremony is clearly the murder of an assassin before the ribbon-cutting ceremony."
There was a serious look on his face, and he checked for any omissions and said:
"Brother, the time for the Jade Fairy and the Chang'an Swordsman to start is closer to the ribbon-cutting ceremony on the afternoon of July 15th. The closer the better, preferably on the same day.
"This can save the time of the Jade Fairy's disguise and reduce the risk of being discovered."
Liu Ziwen said in a tone of approval:
"What the second brother said is true. In the next few days, I will find someone to obtain Ouyang Lianghan's itinerary before the ribbon-cutting ceremony from elsewhere.
"The eyeliners who are still in Longcheng County Yamen can no longer be used. It is very likely that they have been exposed. This time Ouyang Lianghan discovered the Burning Sky Shark Oil in advance, which illustrates the problem. For such an opponent who is like a grindstone , we can no longer take chances."
Liu Zian nodded slightly, then lowered his eyes and thought for a while. After exhausting his brain power, he found nothing missing.
His face was troubled and he sighed with emotion:
"Brother's plan is really the best one. Not only does tonight's crisis turn into a disaster, but the best thing is that the Burning Sky Shark Oil that has been lying in Di Gong Gate has become Ouyang Lianghan's reassurance, stabilizing his relationship with the county. Yamen.
"Until the Chang'an swordsman cut off his head, Ouyang Lianghan probably never thought that we would do it on the eve of the ribbon-cutting ceremony..."
Liu Zian turned around and said seriously:
"Brother, what a great plan to hide the truth from the enemy."
Liu Ziwen shook his head indifferently:
"It's just a gift that comes by chance."
Liu Zian was a little amazed:
"People die in the morning, and corpses commit suicide in the evening. It's interesting."
…
Here we go, I haven’t slept yet, so I can catch the little tail in the early hours of the morning! There are a bit too many codes, so it will be later... The next update will be in the evening.
(Brothers, these chapters are a bit depressing... We are almost reaching an important plot point, so Xiaorong tries to speed up the progress!)
