Li Feng was shocked. He didn't expect Ye Tian to want to get rid of Wei Wuji.
However, he didn't say anything, just nodded silently.
He knew that King Yan Ye Tian must have his reasons for doing this.
…
At the same time, in a courtyard.
A man wearing black clothes stood in the courtyard, his face was gloomy, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light.
"Damn it, that Ye Tian dares to humiliate me like this. I want him to die without a burial place." The man said through gritted teeth.
This man is none other than Wei Wuji.
Although he performed well in Shangyin Academy, he was publicly humiliated by Ye Tian, which made him lose face and made him hate Ye Tian even more.
"Brother Wei, you don't have to worry too much." A man in gray robes came over with a sinister smile on his face.
"As long as the two of us join forces, we can definitely bring down that Ye Tian."
"Oh? You mean, you have a way?" Wei Wuji looked at the man in front of him, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
"Hey, I have a poison technique. As long as I kill that Ye Tian with poison, everything will be over." The man in gray robe said sinisterly.
"Poison?" Wei Wuji frowned.
He doesn't like to use poison because once discovered, his reputation will be ruined.
"Don't worry, this poison is colorless and odorless. As long as it is put into wine, it can cause people to die unconsciously in their sleep." The man in gray robe explained.
"And as long as the wine glass is disposed of afterwards, no evidence will be left."
"What price do I need to pay?" Wei Wuji asked calmly.
Although he hated Ye Tian deeply, it didn't mean that he would do something detrimental to himself.
"As long as you inform me about the situation in Prince Yan's Mansion afterwards, I will teach you this poison technique." The man in gray robe said.
"Okay." Wei Wuji agreed to the deal with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
Wei Wuji knew clearly that if this poison technique fell into his hands, it would definitely come in handy in the future.
Two days later, in Prince Yan's mansion.
Ye Tian stood in the study, his face gloomy, he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Your Majesty, Wei Wuji has agreed to our conditions and is willing to cooperate with us." Li Feng walked in and reported.
"Cooperation? Humph, he just wants to learn the poison technique." Ye Tian sneered.
He had long known what happened between Wei Wuji and the man in gray robe, but he didn't stop it.
Because he wanted to use Wei Wuji's help to lure the man in gray robe out.
The man in gray robe is a remnant of Jiangnan Perak Hall. He has been secretly lurking in the imperial capital, waiting for an opportunity to take action against Ye Tian.
These days, Ye Tian has been secretly investigating the affairs of Perak Hall. He knows that the other party will not take action easily and must have a bait.
And Wei Wuji was the bait.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates have delivered the poisoned wine to Wei Wuji according to your instructions." Li Feng said again.
"Well, the next step is to wait for the fish to take the bait." Ye Tian said calmly.
He knew in his heart that the man in gray robe would definitely appear.
…
Not long after, Wei Wuji received an invitation from Ye Tian to attend a banquet at Prince Yan's Mansion.
That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.
Wei Wuji sneaked into Prince Yan's palace quietly, holding a dagger in his hand and his eyes cold.
But not long after he stepped into Prince Yan's Mansion, he felt dizzy and his body was limp and unable to move.
"No, it's poisonous." Wei Wuji was shocked and wanted to shout for help, but found that he didn't even have the strength to speak.
Not long after, he passed out.
And in the study.
Ye Tian and Li Feng sat under the lamp, their faces a little solemn.
"Your Majesty, do you really want to hand Wei Wuji into His Majesty's hands?" Li Feng couldn't help but ask.
Although Wei Wuji had evil intentions, this was a matter of life and death after all.
"Otherwise, how can we get the man in gray robe to show up?" Ye Tian said calmly.
He knew that although Wei Wuji was a chess piece being used, once he fell into the hands of the imperial court, he would definitely die.
But he could only sigh helplessly.
At the same time, in a dark corner.
A man in gray robes stood there quietly, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
"Damn it, that Ye Tian actually saw through my plan." The man in gray robe cursed in his heart, turned around and left.
But the moment he turned around, his vision went dark and he fainted on the ground.
Not long after, the man in gray robe was tied up by several palace guards and brought to Ye Tian.
"What a cunning guy, he dared to do something under my nose." Ye Tian looked at the unconscious gray-robed man in front of him and said coldly.
He was also a little surprised that this man in gray robe could lurk in his house for so long without being discovered, which showed that he was quite capable.
"Your Majesty, how should we deal with this guy?" Li Feng asked.
"Let him be imprisoned first and be sent to the capital early tomorrow morning to be handed over to His Majesty." Ye Tian said.
He knew that this gray-robed man must have been sent by a force in the imperial court. Only by handing this man over to the imperial court could the mastermind behind it be thoroughly investigated.
Li Feng nodded and ordered the guards to take the gray-robed man down and imprison him.
At this moment, Wei Wuji also woke up slowly.
He found himself tied hand and foot, lying on a bed, surrounded by darkness.
"Where is this?" Wei Wuji was shocked. He remembered that he fell into a coma not long after entering Prince Yan's Mansion.
He didn't know where he was now, or what Ye Tian, Li Feng and others had done to him.
At this moment, the door to the room was pushed open and several guards walked in.
"Who are you? Let me go!" Wei Wuji struggled and shouted.
"Wei Wuji, you don't have to shout. We have ordered you to be detained here until you are sent to the palace early tomorrow morning." A guard said coldly.
"What? Sent to the palace? Why am I in Prince Yan's Mansion?" Wei Wuji exclaimed.
"You poisoned Prince Yan's mansion in an attempt to kill the prince. Fortunately, we discovered it in time. Now you have been captured." Another guard said.
"What? Poison? You don't want to spit on me, I didn't poison you at all!" Wei Wuji shouted loudly.
He was very frightened and didn't know what was going on.
"When we get to the palace, your Majesty will issue the decree." The guard said coldly, turned around and left the room.
Wei Wuji was in confusion. He didn't know what all this was going on, and he didn't know what to do.
At this time, Ye Tian and Li Feng were discussing the next action plan in the study.
"Your Majesty, we will send Wei Wuji to the palace tomorrow morning. Do you think this plan is feasible?" Li Feng asked.
"It should be possible. Now that I have a very high reputation in the court, Your Majesty will definitely give me face." Ye Tian said in a deep voice.
