Chapter 411: Jian Cheng

 "Go back and let him come in alone." An old and majestic voice came from the house.

"Yes." Nangong gave Li Huowang a cautious look, then turned and left.

Looking at the ajar wooden door in front of him, Li Huowang took a deep breath, opened the door and walked in.

The inside is not big, and it looks like an ordinary study. The bookshelf on the left is also filled with various paper books and picture books. The walls are the same as those in Zhuge Yuan's bamboo house, either with calligraphy or paintings.

If this place wasn't hidden in the deepest part of Jiantiansi, Li Huowang would have thought it was some scholar's study room.

"Erjiu has met Mr. Jian Cheng!" Li Huowang bowed his head and saluted him.

"Are you Erjiu? Lift your head."

When the other party saw clearly the face without flesh and blood, Li Huowang also saw clearly the appearance of the eunuch.

The thin middle-aged man with a goatee was the first impression left on him by the eunuch. The deep nasolabial folds on his face almost cut his face into three parts.

Compared with his appearance, Jian Cheng's clothes are not eye-catching at all. It is just an ordinary purple robe with a jade pendant hanging from his waist.

At this time, he was standing behind the desk, grading something with a cinnabar red pen in his hand, and tea was boiling on the small stove beside him, making the room much warmer than outside.

Thinking of Nangong's words just now, Li Huowang's heart froze, he turned around and lowered his head, "Master Jian Cheng, all the members of Zuowangdao are here now---"

"Earlier today, did you go into the city with the storyteller?" Jian Cheng's light words instantly interrupted Li Huowang's words and thoughts.

Jian Cheng slowly placed his cinnabar pen on the jade pen mountain, picked up the fist-sized official seal on the side with one hand, and lightly stamped it on the corner of the paper in front of him.

Li Huowang's heart trembled, but he didn't stop talking. He immediately told everything about the conflict between Zuowangdao and Zhuge Yuan, and how he learned from them that all Zuowangdao came to Beijing.

What Li Huowang said was all the truth. There was no lie at all. He just hid some details that Supervisor Tiansi didn't need to know.

"Oh, I got it." Faced with the news that all members of Zuowangdao came to Beijing, Jian Cheng's calmness greatly exceeded Li Huowang's expectations.

"Sir! That's Zuowangdao! They——"

"What should I do? I need you to teach me? Why are you in such a hurry? Could it be that you want to use Jian Tiansi to take revenge?" The look in Jian Cheng's eyes quickly became cold, and a pressure from someone who had been in power for many years came to bear on Li Huowang.

.

"Erjiu don't dare." Li Huowang bit his cheek and took half a step back.

"Humph, there are no rules." Jian Cheng left Li Huowang where he was and continued to do the work at hand.

After letting the incense dry for a while, Jian Cheng picked up the teapot on the stove and made himself a cup of Dahongpao. After taking a sip of tea, he started to look at Li Huowang in front of him again.

"Don't worry about Zuowangdao for now. Someone else will do this. There is another errand for you to do in the department. This errand is more important than Zuowangdao. You should pay more attention to it."

Although the other party did not follow his own routine, Li Huowang knew that he should not panic at this time and let the other party see the flaw. "Yes, my lord, please give me your instructions."

"I don't care how you met Zhuge Yuan. You can go back as long as you left him. When the time is right, I will send someone to work with you inside and outside to snatch the Liuyaotong Book from his hand."

"Liu Yao Tong Shu? What is that? Wait! Book?" In an instant, the only thing called a book around Zhuge Yuan came into Li Huowang's mind, "This eunuch wants to snatch the old almanac from Zhuge Yuan's hand!"

Just when Li Huowang was shocked, Jian Cheng continued: "This matter is of great importance. I will keep an eye on it personally. You have to do it well. Of course, if you can kill Zhuge Yuan with two birds with one stone, that would be better. If not, there is no need to force it.



Seeing Li Huowang standing motionless, Jian Cheng showed a trace of dissatisfaction on his face, "Why, didn't you hear what I said?"

Li Huowang clenched his trembling hands, "Yes, I obey!"

Speaking of this, Jian Cheng did not forget to draw a piece of cake for Li Huowang, "As long as you do your job well, the department can forget about the past things. Not only that, you can also be promoted to a higher position, honor your ancestors, and all kinds of internal treasury."

You can also choose three magical weapons, heavenly spirits and earthly treasures."

"I also know what happened to you. Zuowangdao will destroy all your families. It is right for you to hate Zuowangdao, both emotionally and rationally. Let's do this. As long as you do a good job, not only will you be responsible for the encirclement and suppression of Zuowangdao, but also those who

The prisoners' sitting and forgetting are also at your disposal."

Seeing Li Huowang nod his consent again, Jian Cheng was satisfied and used his missing finger to grab a pile of papers next to him and put it in front of Li Huowang.

"Okay, you can take these to the third door on the left and store them in storage. Come back after delivery."

Li Huowang stepped forward, took the papers full of words with both hands steadily, turned around and left the office of the Prime Minister.

After he came out of the house, Li Huowang's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly. "What should I do?" These three words kept lingering in Li Huowang's mind.

The plan to devour the tiger and make a profit failed. He never expected that Supervisor Tiansi would react like this when he heard that all of them had come to the capital.

Without the help of Supervisor Tiansi, I am no match for Zuowangdao alone, so I must find another way.

"Is it really possible to help Jian Tiansi to deal with Fang Geyuan? What a joke!"

Although Zhuge Yuan is crazy and talkative, he has already taken the position of a friend in Li Huowang's heart.

When Li Huowang was struggling in his heart, the third door on the left appeared in front of Li Huowang. He lowered his head and glanced at the paper in his arms before preparing to send it in.

But just as he was about to take his right foot, a piece of content on the paper instantly attracted Li Huowang's attention.

"Feng Erniu?" Li Huowang remembered this name. The eunuch's name seemed to be Feng Erniu.

Li Huowang immediately followed the content on the paper and read it vertically, "The former prime minister, Feng Erniu, and his wife have passed away... I will return it to him as a ring to prove his identity..."
Is Ji Xiang dead? This guy worked for Supervisor Tiansi for so long, and ended up dying so easily?

Li Huowang thought of the fat old eunuch, and his heart became cold. The big red circle drawn with cinnabar on the paper was so dazzling in his eyes.

Li Huowang raised his head and looked at the room where the supervisor's office was located from a distance. He knew in his heart that the other party could not have such negligence. He must have realized that he knew the photo. The paper was not placed randomly on it. This was his warning.

What about myself?

After taking a deep breath, Li Huowang's previously wavering gaze became firm, and he raised his feet and walked toward the door in front of him.
