Three days later.

Everyone gathered together on the top floor of Zi Lan Xuan.

"The recent case of the ghost soldiers robbing the court has caused panic among the people, but Junior Brother is drinking and having fun every day, sitting back and relaxing. I guess he must be confident." Su Xuan raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "I heard that the five chief judges of the case of the ghost soldiers robbing the court died one after another, and no one is willing to take over the case. If this trend continues, the big fish Junior Brother is waiting for should be caught soon."

"As expected, nothing can be hidden from you, senior brother." Han Fei smiled bitterly and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Compared to seeking an official position, he would rather see someone in South Korea who could solve this strange case.

He seemed to be drinking and having fun, but in fact he was secretly observing the situation in the Korean court. Now it seems that the situation is much more serious than he imagined.

Even the military pay at the Nanyang border was robbed. One can imagine how corrupt the court is today.

"The ghost soldier robbery case seems to be treacherous and difficult to solve, but in fact it is full of loopholes, because in the whole of South Korea, there is only one person who has such ability and motive." Su Xuan paused and continued, "I think Junior Brother already has the answer in his mind."

The two looked at each other and called out the same name in tacit understanding.

Ji Wuye.

"Although I have just arrived in South Korea, I have some understanding of the situation in the Korean court. Now Ji Wuye controls the government, is extremely powerful, and is daring. If you want to change South Korea, in addition to entering the court, recruiting talents, and eliminating treacherous officials, it is also imperative." Su Xuan looked at Han Fei with a smile, "Junior brother, do you need my help?"

Han Fei's eyes lit up. "Brother, you really have a keen eye. I wonder what brilliant plan you have?"

Wei Zhuang leaned against the window, glanced at the two of them, and a hint of thought flashed in his eyes.

"Ji Wuye's Ye Mu has infiltrated South Korea in all aspects, including military, politics, finance, and espionage. If we want to deal with him, we must naturally start from these aspects." Su Xuan picked up the wine bottle and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. "I have found an ally worth winning over for my junior brother. With my junior brother's eloquence, it should not be difficult to convince her."

"I wonder who this person is?" Han Fei asked curiously.

"The favorite concubine of King Han, Lady Hu." Su Xuan smiled slightly, and then told Han Fei the whole story.

Han Fei looked at Nanyue in surprise. He had never thought that there was such a relationship between her and Lady Hu.

The sweet breeze beside your pillow is intoxicating and often more effective than the words of a minister.

Han Fei was well aware of the importance of this.

Wei Zhuang's eyes flickered slightly, Su Xuan's idea coincided with his.

If you want to deal with Ji Wuye, you must first pull out his teeth and claws. The Four Evil Generals of the Night are Ji Wuye's sharpest claws biting South Korea. Only by eliminating them one by one can Ji Wuye be truly defeated.

The four evil generals of the night are the Marquis in Blood Robe, the Emerald Tiger on the Stone, the Banshee in the Blue Sea, and the Man in Straw Raincoat under the Moon.

Chao Nuyao lives in the deep inner court, hiding beside the pillow of King Han. As the favorite concubines of King Han, Lady Hu and Chao Nuyao naturally have opposing positions. In Wei Zhuang's view, it is not difficult to win her over.

Zi Nu and Nong Yu looked at each other. They had known about this in advance and were not surprised.

"Brother, you have helped me a lot this time." Han Fei picked up the wine bottle, "Brother, Han Fei toasts you a glass."

Su Xuan clinked his glass with his and shook his head secretly.

If the king is powerful, why would it be so complicated to deal with Ji Wuye? With just one imperial edict, Ji Wuye can commit suicide.

In the past, Bai Qi, the Marquis of Wu'an, killed 400,000 surrendered soldiers from the State of Zhao and was so famous that King Zhaoxiang of Qin issued an edict and sent an envoy to give him a sword and order him to commit suicide, but Bai Qi, the Marquis of Wu'an, could not refuse. So what could Ji Wuye do?

Unfortunately, in today's South Korea, Ji Wuye has already controlled everything. If this is done, it will only force Ji Wuye to rebel. There are only two ways to deal with Ji Wuye. One is to cut the Gordian knot, summon him into the palace, kill him quickly, and at the same time send heavy troops to eliminate his forces.

The second is to do as Han Fei did and take it step by step.

The former requires the support of the King of Han. Given the King of Han's stupidity and incompetence, as well as his trust in Ji Wuye, he obviously would not do so.

From the very beginning, Han Fei, restricted by the law, was destined to have only one choice.

This also doomed him to failure.

Junior brother, you succeed because of the law, but you are also destined to fail because of the law.

......

"Sister, you've kept me waiting for so long." A slightly complaining voice sounded. It was from the tall Miss Hu, who was wearing a pink dress.

She grasped Mrs. Hu's hand and asked with concern, "Sister is always on time and never late, but what delayed you?"

Mrs. Hu was dressed in a green robe, with a gentle temperament, giving people a feeling of elegance and tranquility. She said softly, "It may be that the road was slippery due to the rain, so we were delayed a little on the road."

She looked away and her right hand unconsciously grasped her dress.

The astute Lady Hu naturally noticed this scene.

The two grew up together, and Lady Hu knew Mrs. Hu very well. Whenever her sister told a lie, she would subconsciously clutch her dress.

My sister is lying to me! What is she hiding from me?

She couldn't help but think of something that happened half a month ago.

Half a month ago, she and her sister, Mrs. Hu, were watching a play, drinking tea and chatting. When Mrs. Hu saw someone, she became very uneasy and even dropped the teacup in her hand to the ground. She was even disturbed by this and secretly shed tears.

She remembered that the man was dressed as a low-ranking servant, and her sister was the wife of Zuo Sima, of noble status. Logically speaking, there should be no intersection between the two. In order to resolve the doubts in her heart, she asked the Fourth Young Master Han Yu to send someone to investigate the matter, but in the end there was no such person.

She once asked Mrs. Hu indirectly who this person was, but Mrs. Hu remained tight-lipped and refused to say anything. She would not force her to do so, and the matter was just an episode and ended in nothing.

"Sister, it's getting late. Let's go in early." Lady Hu took Mrs. Hu's wrist, and the two behaved intimately. "Today is the first performance of the most famous actor in Zhao State. The name of the opera is Wushan Meeting. It is said to be innovative and exciting."

Mrs. Hu responded with a slight "hmm", and the two of them walked into the theater together.

Behind them, several pretty maids followed and entered one after another.

Not long after they entered, several carriages stopped outside the door, among them was Su Xuan and his group.

As soon as they got off the carriage, several servants came over and held umbrellas for them to protect them from the rain. One of them even walked up to Su Xuan and whispered softly in his ear.

These people are from the Violet Chamber of Commerce, and Zi Nu arranged them here to act as surveillance agents.

"It seems that we have come at the right time. Concubine Hu and Madam Hu have just arrived." Su Xuan chuckled, but his eyes unconsciously glanced at Nanyue and Zinu.

Nanyue clenched her hands, looked around, and carefully examined the passers-by, as if looking for the figure she had longed for in her dream.

Zi Nu smiled back at him, and there was no difference from before.

Su Xuan was thinking about a question. Zi Nu asked the person who was following her to tell him the news first. Does it mean that, to some extent, he is already the owner of Zi Lan Xuan?
