Chapter 47: To kill someone, you must first kill your heart
"besides……"
Qin Wenyuan squinted his eyes, looked behind him and on the eaves, and changed the topic: "On the right eaves, there are five archers trained by your Lu family."
"There are also five people on the left eaves."
"And inside the door behind you, there are dozens of swordsmen..."
Qin Wenyuan said, ignoring Lu Qian, who was completely stunned in front of him, and Cheng Yaojin, whose face was frozen next to him, and continued: "Are you... planning to rebel and kill Mr. Cheng who came to visit today?"
Only then did Cheng Yaojin react, "What, this... is this all true?"
He glanced at Lu Qian, who was dumbfounded, and then at Qin Wenyuan, who was calm and composed, and his expression became even more ugly.
"Vice General Lin, go and look at that door!" Cheng Yaojin pointed to the place where Qin Wenyuan said.
Vice General Lin nodded and immediately walked over with a few people.
"Vice General Lin, there is nothing special there... there..."
Li Xiaoran was still trying to stop him, but was pushed away by Deputy General Lin.
His posture made Cheng Yaojin's face look even more ugly.
“Bang!!”
Soon, Vice General Lin looked sternly and kicked open the door inside.
There was no one inside, it was considered a normal layout.
But when Lieutenant General Lin looked inside, he could see a dozen swordsmen who had not retreated in time.
"General, as the young master said, this Ruyi Tea Shop is really going to be detrimental to us!!" Lieutenant General Lin said truthfully.
Cheng Yaojin was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lu Qian coldly, "Boss Lu, you must give me an explanation for today's matter!"
"Otherwise, either I will die here, or the whole Ruyi Tea Shop will be stained with blood!!"
Cheng Yaojin's tone was extremely cold.
Although he had already planned to kill Qin Wenyuan at Ruyi Tea Shop.
But Cheng Yaojin never expected that even if he brought someone with him, this Lu Qian... would still be so dishonest!
If I hadn't come here...
Cheng Yaojin didn't dare to think about that result anymore.
I'm afraid that as soon as he got to the dinner table, Lu Qian would let the people in ambush around him rush out to attack Qin Wenyuan!!
At this moment, Lu Qian's face was pale and he said tremblingly: "Master Cheng, this is not what you think. They are just... just customers of my Ruyi Tea Shop."
Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly, "What an excuse for a retainer. I, Old Cheng, are dining with you here, and your retainer is eavesdropping outside the door with weapons?"
"Boss Lu, do you think I am a three-year-old child?"
Just when Lu Qian didn't know how to answer, Qin Wenyuan stood up and said, "Mr. Cheng, Boss Lu is really bad at employing people. I think this is indeed the fault of his disciples."
After the words fell, Cheng Yaojin was stunned.
Listening to this, Qin Wenyuan...is he planning to speak for Lu Qian?
Cheng Yaojin really didn't want to understand why Qin Wenyuan did this?
It was Qin Wenyuan who discovered that there was an ambush in Ruyi Tea Shop, and it was Qin Wenyuan who stepped forward to be the peacemaker and the good guy.
Why did Qin Wenyuan know there was an ambush here?
Suddenly, he thought that Qin Wenyuan had already understood everything.
Cheng Yaojin didn't think about this because he was so angry just now.
But now that he calmed down, he realized how terrifying Qin Wenyuan was!
His own men were more than a dozen soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles, but they were not aware of the ambush here at all.
Qin Wenyuan discovered these ambushes with only one guard.
In fact, Cheng Yaojin felt that Qin Wenyuan had already known about the ambush at Ruyi Tea Shop.
Even though he knew there was an ambush, he still went into battle lightly, taking only one guard to the banquet...
The corners of Cheng Yaojin's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but glance at Qin Wenyuan a few more times.
Then, while still glaring at Lu Qian angrily, he softened his tone and said, "According to Mr. Qin's assumption, this is all the actions of Boss Lu's disciples? It's not Boss Lu's personal instigation?"
Qin Wenyuan smiled lightly, "I think that's it."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Qian again, "I just don't know if Boss Lu really knows about it?"
"I don't know, I don't know!"
Lu Qian kept shaking his head.
Just kidding, bringing dozens of people to attack the contemporary Duke of Guangdong right now, if he really admits it, even if he has a dozen lives, it is not enough to waste money.
In fact, he knew it! He even arranged the assassins himself!
The reason why so many assassins were arranged was that after Qin Wenyuan and Cheng Yaojin separated, if Qin Wenyuan still planned to stay at Ruyi Tea Shop, he would lure the whole house and kill him directly!
And if Cheng Yaojin and Qin Wenyuan left together, there would be no loss. Anyway, the assassins were guarding inside and no one could know. They were just left standing on the street all afternoon.
However, all of this was disrupted because Qin Wenyuan had insight into all the information about Ruyi Tea Shop!
That's why we have such an extremely tense situation now.
Before welcoming him, Lu Qian had no idea that Qin Wenyuan was so familiar with everything about Ruyi Tea Shop.
Not only him, but also Li Xiaoran, Cheng Yaojin and others are unclear!
Qin Wenyuan caught them off guard.
It was only then that Lu Qian truly realized the horror of Qin Wenyuan!
He didn't understand why Qin Wenyuan spoke for him, but it was definitely not good.
Even though he was like a bright mirror in his heart, he knew that Qin Wenyuan would definitely have other bad intentions when he said this.
However, when Qin Wenyuan helped him like this, Lu Qian had to jump in. The reason was simply because he, Lu Qian, didn't want to die!
At this moment.
Qin Wenyuan squinted his eyes slightly and raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, but he quickly returned to normal.
Then, he said seriously: "Since Boss Lu doesn't know about it, then this matter is basically clear."
"This matter is Boss Lu's improper employment and the personal behavior of his subordinates."
"A group of Ruyi Tea Shop customers ignored Boss Lu's wishes and held knives in public, trying to kill Mr. Cheng at the banquet..."
As he spoke, Qin Wenyuan looked at Lu Qian and said with a smile: "Boss Lu, what I said is right?"
Lu Qian hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, yes, yes!"
"So, Boss Lu, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, what is the crime of attacking and killing a first-class official in Chang'an?" Qin Wenyuan continued.
Lu Qian suppressed his trembling and said, "This is a capital crime."
Qin Wenyuan nodded, "This group of retainers are boss Lu's subordinates. Their discipline is lax and they want to kill Mr. Cheng."
"I also hope that Boss Lu will eradicate all the assassins with his own hands and restore your Ruyi Tea Shop's innocence!"
