Chapter 141
"Is this Mingyue Tower a secret agency of Tianxia Bank?"
"Yes! Your Highness, please feel free to tell us what you need. We in Mingyue Tower are at your disposal!"
"Get up!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Yaoyue slowly stood up, looking up at Wang Xuan from time to time.
Wang Xuan smiled and said,"What's wrong? Is there something on this prince's face?"
Yaoyue's eyebrows were full of spring, and she said nervously,"I am just fascinated by your heroic appearance, and I hope your Highness will forgive me."
Wang Xuan was stunned.
Good guy, who said that women can't flatter? This flattery is the best.
But Wang Xuan didn't have any hot-headedness.
It's too fake to be fascinated by someone after meeting him once or twice.
Wang Xuan said coldly:"Not much to say, Master Liu should have told you the purpose of my trip. Tell me about the situation in Jingzhou!"
Seeing that Wang Xuan was indifferent and didn't want to show sympathy to her at all, Yaoyue's eyes flashed with disappointment, but she quickly cheered up and said:
"Your Highness, this Jingzhou was ravaged by witchcraft more than ten years ago, with countless casualties, nine out of ten houses empty, and everything in need of reconstruction."
"Later, after Liu Dezhu came to power, he worked hard to govern the country. The people's livelihood in Jingzhou improved. Many refugees from the north came here to make a living, and the population gradually increased."
"But in recent years, Liu Dezhu seems to have changed. He has amassed wealth and made life miserable for the people. Many people are miserable and some even want to rebel, but they are killed directly. The people can only swallow their anger."
Wang Xuan frowned:"Why is there no news about this in Luodu?"
He remembered that in the official newspaper of Luodu, the official evaluation of Jingzhou in recent years was the best.
Yao Yue said indignantly:"That's natural. Officials in Daqian protect each other. It is rumored that behind Liu Dezhu is the powerful and mighty general. Even if the news is reported, it will be concealed."
"General?" Wang Xuan shook his head:"That's impossible. Uncle Yang would not do such a thing, nor does he need to do such a thing."
Yang Heng is a powerful general, a high-ranking official, and he himself comes from a poor family. He would not be willing to extort money from the people. If he wants money, the empress will definitely give it to him.
"Who can tell for sure? We at Mingyue Tower have also heard news from some officials that someone from the General's Mansion has really been in and out of the Governor's Mansion and has had secret talks with Liu Dezhu several times. There is definitely something going on here!"
Wang Xuan frowned.
The intelligence from the world's money houses is very likely to be reliable.
"If this wasn't a smokescreen from the other party, it's very likely that Uncle Yang was unaware and it was done by his men."
"Anyway, no matter who did it, the General's Mansion is definitely to blame!" Yao Yue was indignant.
""I see you are so angry, do you have a grudge against the General's Mansion?" Wang Xuan said with a smile. Yao
Yue said in fear:"Your Highness, please forgive me. I was born and raised in Jingzhou. I saw that the people in my hometown were in such dire straits, so I empathized with them!"
Wang Xuan comforted her:"It's okay, I don't mean to blame you, I just asked casually."
"But apart from these, is there any information about witch cults?"
Yao Yue shook her head:"Yes, but they are all small characters who found a few remaining witch cult books and cheated people for food and drink. I have never seen any other organized ones."
Wang Xuan pondered:"Maybe they are hidden too deep. You should look for them carefully recently."
"There is nothing left, you can leave now!"
Yao Yue wanted to do something, but seeing Wang Xuan was indifferent, she just left in a huff.
After she left the room, her smile instantly turned cold.
She walked through the crowd and came to her room. As soon as she entered the door, a voice came from the dark:
"Didn't he keep you here?"
Yao Yue shook her head, a little distressed:"He doesn't seem to be interested in women.......Can't you just kill him?"
"Don't be impulsive. He is the son of the"Ren Tu". The leader doesn't want Ren Tu to become an enemy. Try again tomorrow.......The leader asks us to make him our own......."
"All right......"Yao Yue had no choice but to agree......
When Yao Yue closed the door and left, Wang Xuan, who had been calm just now, suddenly became gloomy.
"This invitation moon......There is a problem!"
Because the last question Wang Xuan asked, Yao Yue's answer was a lie
"Why did Yao Yue lie? It is very likely that she is related to witchcraft."
"Even the entire Mingyue Tower is related to the witch cult."
"If the witch cult relies on an intelligence agency like Mingyue Tower, how could it be detected?"
"Even if they are found out, with the second brother's endorsement, no one will embarrass Mingyue Tower."
"Therefore, the government has never found any information about witchcraft......."
Wang Xuan laughed.
He had originally thought of releasing the news at the dinner party tonight to alert the snake, but he had actually walked into the snake's lair.
"But it's better this way, so I don't have to look everywhere."
And it seems that the people of the witch cult don't want to attack him. I don't know what they want to do.
But Wang Xuan is not in a hurry. He has patience and falls asleep directly.......
The next day, after Wang Xuan got up, the first person to come was not from the Wu Cult, but the prefect Wei Long.
"Your Highness, I have already arranged a beautiful villa for you, and I await your visit!"
""Then I'll have to trouble you, Lord Wei!" Wang Xuan did not refuse.
Wei Long took Wang Xuan and his party to the villa beside the Han River, where there were beautiful mountains and clear waters, rugged rocks and unique scenery.
"This villa is really nice, Lord Wei is very thoughtful!" Wang Xuan praised.
Wei Long smiled and said,"As long as Your Highness likes it, I have something else to do and will leave first. If Your Highness has anything else to do, please tell me."
""Okay, thank you for your help."
Wei Long left.
The servants, doormen and cooks in the villa were all available, so Wang Xuan didn't need to arrange them.
The service was so thoughtful that Wang Xuan couldn't help but admire Wei Long.
But he also knew what Wei Long was thinking. Maybe he wanted to curry favor with him and get on his boat.
In this huge Jingzhou, although he was the prefect of Jiangling, the capital of the state, he also had positions such as governor and deputy governor. At the banquet last night, he was the last seat, and was sent out to greet him. It can be said that he had a miserable life.
But it's okay, it just so happens that the people in Mingyue Tower are no longer useful. If Wei Long is reliable and can be used by him, he will not be isolated and helpless in Jingzhou.
But he can't put all his hopes on others.
So he called Wang Si and ordered:"You go find......"
After giving the order, the two left the courtyard.
Wang Xuan did not go out, but sat in the courtyard, watching the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in front of him drop its petals continuously.
As night fell, someone came to report that Yao Yue had arrived.
"I am Yaoyue, the slave girl, and I pay my respects to His Highness!
"How is it? Is there any news about the remnants of the witch cult?" Wang Xuan asked
"The news is important and cannot be spread out, so Your Highness, please take me to a room and I will tell Your Highness quietly!" Yao Yue's eyes were full of smiles. Wang Xuan said with a smile:"What news is so secret that we have to go to the room to talk about it?"
"You will know when you go there, Your Highness!"
"Good!"
Wang Xuan took Yao Yue into the room.
"Okay, you can talk now."
Yao Yue walked towards Wang Xuan step by step, taking off a piece of clothing with each step. When she arrived in front of Wang Xuan, she was already naked.
She breathed hot air directly into Wang Xuan's ear:"Your Highness, want me!"
Yao Yue didn't believe it. Even when she was like this, there were still men who could control themselves.
"this......Is that your information?"
