Abandoned Prince: Summon the Sword God at the beginning

Immediately, Zhao Feiyan was pulled down from the prison cart, and Wei Wuxiang pretended to put shackles on her, but with the princess's strength, she could easily break free from the shackles.

The housekeeper of the Xiangfu took a look at Zhao Feiyan and asked Wei Wuxiang, "Is she Princess Zhao Feiyan?"

At this time, Zhao Feiyan was covered in dust, which concealed her extraordinary beauty, and she looked like an ordinary country girl.

Wei Wuxiang said: "Sir, she is Princess Zhao Feiyan, but she has not been officially canonized yet. She is not a real princess, but just a wild girl with royal blood."

The butler of the Xiangfu said to the servants around him, "You guys take her to the backyard and lock her up. We can deal with her when the Xiangye comes back. Don't let her starve. If she starves to death, the Xiangye will blame you when he comes back."

Under the supervision of the servants, Zhao Feiyan slowly walked into the prime minister's mansion. From the outside, it seemed magnificent, and from the inside, it was even more of a different world.

Zhao Feiyan thought to herself, "During the years that Ouyang Lu has been the prime minister, he has embezzled a lot of money. This prime minister's mansion alone must have cost at least hundreds of thousands of silver coins!"

There were pavilions and towers, so beautiful that it seemed like a fairyland, and beautiful maids were busy in each courtyard.

The prime minister's residence was like a small imperial court, with clear division of labor and each person doing his or her own job, and it operated efficiently. There were not only a kitchen and a wine shop to provide living services for the prime minister, but also a staff room to give him advice. Many guests depended on the prime minister's residence for food.

Zhao Feiyan was taken to a storage room in the backyard of the prime minister's residence, and the steward locked it personally.

Wei Wuxiang said, "We are staying at the inn outside now. If the Prime Minister has any instructions, please inform me as soon as possible."

As Wei Wuxiang spoke, he handed a silver note of 1,000 taels to the chief steward of the Xiangfu, saying, "Sir, please take good care of me in the future and say a few good words to the prime minister.

My admiration for you is like the endless flow of the river, or like the flooding of the Yellow River, which cannot be stopped once it starts."

Seeing that no one was paying attention, the chief steward of the Xiangfu accepted the silver from Wei Wuxiang and said, "I will convey your loyalty to the Prime Minister."

Wei Wuxiang left the prime minister's residence, summoned his soldiers, found a secluded place, changed out of their military uniforms and put on ordinary clothes. They looked no different from ordinary people on the street.

Wei Wuxiang said: “According to the agreement between us and the princess, when the treacherous prime minister returns home and interrogates her, she will take the opportunity to kill Ouyang Lu, and then she will light a signal flare.

We rushed into the prime minister's residence in one go and killed all his minions and staff.

Remember, we cannot kill innocent people like maids and servants. Of course, if the servants in the prime minister's mansion resist stubbornly, they will be killed without mercy."

The officers and soldiers obeyed the order. Late at night, the powerful prime minister Ouyang Lu returned from the cabinet. He was wearing a crimson official robe. In terms of official position, he had reached the highest position among the officials and there was no room for him to be promoted.

According to the ancestral system of the Later Tang Dynasty, people of different surnames could not be granted the title of nobility. This means that no matter how hard Ouyang Lu tried in his life, the highest title he could get was earl, and he could not even become a marquis.

He was unwilling to accept this. As a direct descendant of the Later Tang royal family, even if he was not very successful, he could still obtain the title of marquis.

Whenever he woke up in the middle of the night, Ouyang Lu couldn't help feeling nostalgic. No matter how hard the common people tried, they could not compare with those nobles who were born with a silver spoon in their mouths.

Ouyang Lu thought about how he had come a long way from being a farmer's son who passed the imperial examination, first entered the Hanlin Academy, and then served in various ministries, from the head of the Ministry of Works to the Minister of Rites, and was later pushed into the cabinet. From then on, he began his era of controlling the cabinet.
