Wang Manor, backyard.

Two old men were playing chess. One of them was Wang Wenyan, a first-grade official of the Imperial Court.

The one who was playing with him was Imperial Censor Yang Lian.

Yang Lian, the eldest of the Six Gentlemen of the Eastwoods!

As for Wang Wenyan, he was one of the two brains of the Donglin Faction, and he was the one who gave Yang Lian and the others advice.

"Shoutai, your chess skills are getting better and better. I lost!”Yang Lian placed another piece, his tightly furrowed brows relaxing.

With one piece, the game became clear.

He had lost!

"Hehe, Old Master Yang is just a little anxious. If he can calm down, it's hard to say who will win or lose!”Wang Wenyan shook his head.

Wang Shoutai was his former name. Only those who knew him well would call him that.

He and Yang Lian had been good friends for decades, so when Yang Lian asked him for advice, Wang Wenyan immediately agreed.

"How can I not be anxious? Now that Wei Zhongxian was getting more and more powerful, he had to think of a way to stop him!”Yang Lian's expression was solemn as he sighed." It's a pity that His Majesty has been deceived by the thief. It's useless for us to meet him!"”

"That's right! Wei Zhongxian is guarding the Emperor every day. It's difficult for us to get close to him now!”Wang Wenyan looked at the chessboard. The black pieces were like dragons, as if they wanted to swallow the mountains and rivers.

" Not only Wei Zhongxian, but even Madam Fengsheng has been spreading rumors in His Majesty's ears, causing us to suffer a lot of losses recently. We're even in a passive position when dealing with Wei Zhongxian's henchmen…" Yang Lian's face was instantly covered with a layer of frost.

"Humph! Noble Consort Zheng did not know what was good for her and actually secretly contacted Wei Zhongxian's people!”

Wang Wenyan's expression did not change. He always looked as if he had expected the sky to collapse. He said calmly,"Noble Consort Zheng? He's just a clown!"

"However, since she has made her choice, we will eliminate her!”

He said it in an extremely relaxed manner. In a moment of laughter, he had decided the life and death of an imperial concubine.

"Send who?" Yang Lian's eyes lit up.

They were not afraid of Wei Zhongxian guarding the Emperor every day, but they were afraid that the concubines in the Emperor's harem would gossip.

"And that bitch Ke! Relying on the Emperor's favor, he committed all kinds of crimes! If possible, eliminate them all!" Yang Lian's hand smashed heavily on the chessboard, and suddenly black and white pieces flew everywhere.

"Ke clan? She was just a wet nurse…If you want to get rid of them, then get rid of them together!”Wang Wenyan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.

"This is the candidate…Who should we send?"

Wang Wenyan couldn't decide for a moment. This was an important matter and he couldn't afford to make any mistakes.

It was fine if he didn't make a move, but once he did, he had to succeed!

Moreover, he could not leave any clues behind!

At this moment, the servant waiting at the entrance of the courtyard suddenly walked in and said softly,

"Master, the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Lord Chen, requests an audience!”

"Let him in!" Wang Wenyan nodded.

"Chen Yuyan, what is he doing here at this time?”Yang Lian was a little puzzled.

"When he arrives, you and I will naturally know!”Wang Wenyan smiled.

Chen Yuyan walked to the backyard with ease. He looked at the two old men sitting in the pavilion and hurriedly bowed.

"Lord Wang, Lord Yang!"

"There are no outsiders here, so there's no need to be so restrained.”Wang Wenyan said.

Chen Yuyan quickly told them what happened today. He knelt on the ground and choked,"Lord Wang, Lord Yang, please save my son!”

Imperial prison!

Those who entered the imperial prison, even if he was the assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, could not easily take them away from the imperial prison.

Not to mention that he had heard that his son was related to a murderer who had taken sixteen lives…

"Feng Ting? A Centurion of the Embroidered Uniform Guards?" When Wang Wenyan heard this, he was stunned.

Yang Lian also had a strange expression.

You, Chen Yuyan, are the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, a second-rank official of the Imperial Court, yet you were ruthlessly tricked by a centurion of the Brocade Guard.

How embarrassing!

Seeing that Chen Yuyan was about to speak, Wang Wenyan waved his hand impatiently and said,"Alright, I already know. You can leave!”

"Yes, sir!" Chen Yuyan retreated.

After he left, Yang Lian had a fiery temper and could not help but say,"They're just a mere Embroidered Uniform Guards. We can just find an excuse to deal with them!”

"No, this person is useful!" Wang Wenyan stopped him.

"What's the use of a Centurion Embroidered Uniform Guard?”Yang Lian's expression was blank.

Wang Wenyan spat out coldly.

"Borrowing a knife to kill!"

......

"Lord Feng, you're amazing. But how did you see through Qi Chengyun's disguise?”Lu Wenzhao followed Feng Ting and asked with a smile.

After interacting with Feng Ting for a while, they knew that their master wasn't unreasonable.

"I can tell!" Feng Ting said casually. Of course, he could tell. It was a special ability he had after reaching the Transcendent State.

Evil people all had evil auras. Feng Ting could see the evil auras on these people. In his eyes, these evil people had nowhere to hide!

Of course, Lu Wenzhao and the others would definitely not believe this.

Different martial arts realms meant different perspectives.

Unless they could break through this realm, they wouldn't understand Feng Ting's words.

"You could tell?" Shen Lian, Lu Jianxing, Jin Yichuan and the rest had weird expressions.

Why can't we tell?

If Feng Ting didn't explain, they wouldn't ask.

"The few of you will stay in my mansion during these few days…" Feng Ting suddenly said something strange.

After Feng Ting left, Shen Lian asked curiously,""Big Brother Lu, what do you mean?”

Lu Wenzhao pondered for a moment, then guessed,

"It might have something to do with Chen Baichao. If we lock him up in the Imperial Edict Prison, it would be equivalent to offending the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.”

"Go back and cultivate!"

He didn't explain, but the others already understood.

These few days would probably not be peaceful!
