"Young Master, why don't you continue listening to his story inside?”
After Lin Xiao left, the Startling Salamander also followed closely behind and walked out from inside.
" Because, I know the rest of the story. Back then, the King of Han instigated a war in the Baiyue Country. He sent troops to suppress the war and slaughtered the entire Baiyue Royal Family. At that time, Li Kai and Liu Yi, who were under Bai Yifei's command, were his deputy generals.”
"I feel that Young Master can hear the whole story here.”
The two of them walked and talked until they arrived at the stone pavilion in the garden. At this time, the moonlight was shining on the tip of the tree, and the world was silver.
Startling Salamander held his face and quietly listened to Lin Xiao's explanation of what happened next.
"Later, Li Kai got to know the eldest daughter of Fiery Rain Manor, Madam Hu. The two of them fell in love and gave birth to a daughter, Nongyu. Unexpectedly, Liu Yi saw all of this and felt jealous.”
"So, Liu Yi killed Li Kai?"
"No, Liu Yi lied that Li Kai colluded with the government and leaked the news to the rebels of the Bai Yue. When Li Kai was ambushed, not only did Liu Yi not bring reinforcements, but he also colluded with the Three Wolves of Broken Hair to rob Fiery Rain Manor.”
"This Liu Yi is a ruthless person.”
"Be it being ruthless or being a lone army without any support, it was all acquiescence from Han Wangan and his party. To put it bluntly, they were all sacrifices in the struggle for power.”
Lin Xiao's words caused the Startling Salamander to fall silent for a long time. She was not good at analyzing the struggles of the royal court, and she had no opinion on this kind of scheming.
However, she was quite interested in why Lin Xiao was so familiar with the struggles of the royal court.
"After that, I didn't expect Li Kai to not die. He even returned from the Hundred Yue Land. I think Madam Hu had already seen him when Liu Yi died.”
"You mean? That lowly servant? Then how did Liu Yi die?”
"Vulture, back then, after the Three Wolves with Broken Hair worked together for Liu Yi, they were attacked by a gang. I didn't expect one of the three to survive and join Hundred Birds to take revenge.”
"But, why did the vultures want to kill Nongyu?”
"Of course, it's to find the whereabouts of the treasure. After he killed Liu Yi, he didn't find the whereabouts of the treasure in the secret passage, so he set his eyes on Nongyu.”
"How did he know that Nongyu was related to Fiery Rain Manor?”
"Because of the Fire Rain Agate that Nongyu carried with her, Liu Yi's case was cleared up. It was originally a small case of revenge killing, but I didn't expect that because of Li Kai's appearance, it would implicate the Bai Yue.”
Lin Xiao couldn't help but worry. With Han Fei's stubbornness, he would never stop until the matter of the Bai Yue was exposed to the world.
However, this was exactly what Han Wangan could not tolerate. Now that the vulture was dead, the best way was to frame Li Kai as the beast that killed Liu Yi and end this case completely.
In this way, Han Fei could not only gain great credit, but also be free from worry.
However, if he did that, he wouldn't be Han Fei.
After coming out of the room, Lin Xiao did not go back. Instead, he went straight back to his room to rest.
The next morning, Han Fei came to Lin Xiao and told him his idea.
In the bamboo pavilion, Lin Xiao and Han Fei sat opposite each other, with Wei Zhuang sitting next to them, but their faces were a little stiff.
This was the first time that Lin Xiao and Han Fei had a dispute because of different opinions.
"I want to send Li Kai back to Madam Hu.”
“？，What kind of person is Li Kai? He's a hot potato now, a hot potato. If you send him to the Sima Manor now, isn't that the same as pushing Madam Hu into the fire pit?”
"But…"
"There are no buts. A person who should have disappeared should have his own destiny to live on.”
"What do you mean?"
Hearing Lin Xiao's inexplicable words, Han Fei's heart sank slightly. Of course, he could hear the hidden meaning in Lin Xiao's words.
When was it time? Of course, it was time to close the case. If they continued to investigate, it would definitely incur Han Wangan's wrath.
"You have two choices. One, you can continue to investigate and let Li Kai leave. Second, close the case of Li Kai as the murderer of Liu Yi. This way, not only will it comply with your father's wishes, but it will also be a great merit.”
"This is impossible."
Han Fei's stern refusal was particularly loud in the bamboo forest, and Wei Zhuang sneered at his stubbornness.
"He's right. These were the only two ways out.”
Wei Zhuang's words were like a knife, and Han Fei sat down in a daze.
With his intelligence, these two points were not difficult to think of, but he would never think about it.
Because Han Fei felt that putting an innocent man who had been wronged for many years on the execution platform for his own benefit was no different from Ji Wuye's.
Moreover, he was the Minister of Justice, the law of Han Country, and the representative of the law. If someone broke the law, he would be judged according to the law.
"Then, just do it. No matter how much trouble you stir up, I can help you end it. However, don't regret it in the end.”
"I won't regret it."
Looking at Han Fei's determined face, Lin Xiao gradually understood why this man could write such a masterpiece of Legalism as Five Bugs.
There was no one else but Farr.
