Chapter 166: This son must not be kept any longer!

Jin Wang Mansion.

Before the time for official business, Yuwen Hu was reviewing official documents with Yuwen Ze.

"My lord, the secret report submitted by Mirror Master Chen of the Mingjing Si!"

The mansion personal guards walked quickly, holding the "secret report" with both hands, and reported in a deep voice.

"A Yan's secret report?"

Hearing this, Yuwen Hu reached out to take it and opened it. After scanning it a few times, he was overjoyed, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising, laughing out loud: "Hahahaha!"

"Once A Yan makes a move, you know if there is anything!"

"Good boy!"

While praising, he let out a long sigh of relief.

The previous depression was swept away, leaving only refreshment...

As expected of the person he valued!

"Father, you are so happy; what is written in big brother's secret report?" Yuwen Ze asked tentatively.

For so many years, Yuwen Ze had rarely seen his serious father so happy, especially since he had been attacked by the Grand Minister of Justice yesterday...

The greater the contrast, the more curious he was.

"See for yourself!"

Yuwen Hu was in a great mood and handed the "secret letter" over.

"The Right General and the Censorate Grand Minister died suddenly of poisoning last night?"

"The Xuanwu Mirror Master assisted the Jingzhao Prefecture in investigating the cause of death, but accidentally found evidence of the Right General's crimes?"

"Lady Shangguan committed suicide out of fear of crime, and her legitimate son confessed without hesitation and signed and pressed his fingerprint?"

"The cause of poisoning was that the cook didn't cook the green beans thoroughly?"

The information on the "secret letter" shocked Yuwen Ze again and again, feeling unbelievable.

Numerous coincidences, yet logical, with all kinds of perfect closed loops.

Because of the deaths of Shangguan and Liang, the intervention of the Jingzhao Prefecture and the Mingjing Si was drawn in, then evidence was drawn out, and finally, those who committed suicide did so, and those who confessed did so...

It was truly like Xiahou Dun looking at Louis XVI, unable to see the end.

"Look, look at your big brother's methods!"

"If you could learn one-tenth of A Yan's skill, Father would be at ease!"

Yuwen Hu was overjoyed, pointed his finger at Yuwen Ze, and sighed.

Those actions, one after another, were efficient and meticulous, yet left the opponent unable to find fault.

And, at a glance, it was planned long ago...

Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to brew such a wonderful drama within a few short hours!

"Father, rest assured, the child will definitely ask big brother for advice with an open mind!"

"I will definitely not let Father down!"

Yuwen Ze bowed and cupped his hands, hanging his head.

His big brother was the highest mountain and the longest river. Yuwen Ze knew he was dull, but he could learn slowly by his side...

Even if he couldn't learn, it didn't matter; with A Yan around, he could be guaranteed a life of wealth and worry-free... Yuwen Hu turned his jade thumb ring, pursed his lips and smiled, looking at his only son with increasingly deep eyes, secretly thinking in his heart.

A Tang left him the best heir to his mantle, none other.

After he passed away, it would be up to these two brothers to support each other!

However, before that, he still had to clear the obstacles for them...

"Grand Chancellor, a wonderful drama was staged in Chang'an City this morning!"

Just then, the advisor Gongyang Hui entered and reported.

"What drama?" Yuwen Hu glanced at him and asked.

"It's a good thing!"

Gongyang Hui pinched his beard lightly and said, "It's about that Censor Ren Yue, who was driven by the Grand Minister of Justice to impeach Qin Zhao and several other lords..."

His words could not hide his excitement.

Yuwen Hu stood with one hand behind his back, blinked, and slowly spat out one word: "Speak!"

"Censor Ren Yue went crazy on the street and harassed men and women, and was beaten black and blue..."

Gongyang Hui worded it slightly and reported, "It is rumored that it is because he did unconscionable things, suffered retribution, and received heaven's punishment from the Buddha..."

He paused and continued, "And the matter of him being bought by the Grand Minister of Justice to impeach others has become widely known, and everyone in Chang'an knows it!"

"Hahahaha!"

Yuwen Hu laughed heartily and clapped his hands, "The good news today is truly one after another!"

As the saying goes, good things happen and the spirit is refreshed.

Today is a good day!

"Father, this doesn't look like a coincidence at all..."

Yuwen Ze sensed the unusualness in it, pondered slightly, reviewed it carefully, and said, "It looks more like big brother's handiwork!"

This drama was fierce and targeted...

And it hit the face directly, hit the snake's seven inches, and at the same time, public opinion went in parallel, directly reversing the situation.

The probability of coincidence was minimal; how could there be so many coincidences in the world?

It was clearly another drama planned by big brother after the green bean poisoning!

"Need you say?"

Yuwen Hu heard this, shook his head and smiled, and sighed, "Only your big brother has this ability..."

Between his brows, he couldn't hide his gratification.

Suddenly appearing with so many favorable factors, turning the tide, and simultaneously hitting Zhao Qian's reputation hard...

Only his brilliant A Yan could handle it so easily!

"Grand Chancellor, Lord Chen Yan has already paved the way for everything; next, it's time for us to counterattack!" Gongyang Hui's eyes narrowed slightly, smiling, and he spoke at the right time.

"Gongyang, you go arrange it!"

Yuwen Hu nodded, sneered, "We must give our Old Zhao Lord another big gift!"

A Yan had already done everything he could, turning the headwind into a tailwind...

It was time to kick the cripple's good leg!

He, Yuwen Hu, was not someone who would swallow his anger!

"As you command!" Gongyang Hui was radiant, responded, and immediately went to deploy.

Chu State Duke Mansion.

Only two people sat opposite each other in the quiet room.

"Yuwen Hu's counterattack actually came so fast!"

"And it was so unexpected!"

Dugu Zhao clasped his hands, his expression extremely serious, and said in a deep voice.

"Who says it isn't?"

Zhao Qian opposite him snorted coldly, as if he were a volcano about to erupt but trying hard to restrain himself, gritting his teeth, "The offensive we brewed hadn't even passed a day, and it was so easily reversed!"

"And we were countered!"

Having said that, he clenched his fists and hammered them on the table.

Full of killing intent.

Ever since Yuwen Hu came to power, his affairs had never gone smoothly...

"And, this series of operations doesn't look like it was done in a hurry..." Dugu Zhao was not affected by the emotion and still analyzed calmly, "It looks more like it was planned long ago!"

Everything that happened last night and this morning looked like a combination punch...

Especially the poisoning of Shangguan Jun and Liang Qi.

They were just waiting there, ready to be used. How could a temporary conception be so meticulous and prepared?

And it was so lethal...

"You have this feeling too?"

Zhao Qian was startled, his expression solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "It seems everyone has this feeling..."

"Yuwen Hu is arbitrary and dictatorial, but has no extra energy to deploy in advance..."

Dugu Zhao shook his head and said playfully, "It looks more like the handiwork of Chen Yan, whom he relies on!"

"Chen Yan, Chen Yan, it's Chen Yan again!"

Zhao Qian stood up suddenly, his eyes full of resentment and indignation, and said sternly, "This son must not be kept any longer!"

At that moment, this big figure, one of the Eight Pillars of State, made up his mind completely...

He must break Yuwen Hu's arm, and even more, let that brat die without a burial place!

To resolve the hatred in his heart! ===== CHAPTER 167 =====
