Chapter 63 My Young Master Asked Me to Say Hello to You
"Imperial examination? Pass the imperial examination?!"
Lu Dinghai became more and more confused.
To be honest, he could still understand what was said before.
However, he did not fully understand what the man in black robe meant. What was the imperial examination and getting a place on the list of successful candidates?
The black-robed man said, "Qin Wenyuan took part in the imperial examination today, and he answered three days of questions at once, directly within a few hours."
"It's no exaggeration to say that such a person is a contemporary genius, so it's only natural that your subordinate Lu Qian would suffer losses at his hands repeatedly."
Hearing this, Lu Dinghai finally understood that the man in black robe was referring to Qin Wenyuan who had completed all the imperial examinations today.
But how is this possible?
As far as he could remember, no one submitted their imperial examination paper early!
Unless one gives up on himself, it is a unique case in history for someone like Qin Wenyuan to be able to pass the exam by submitting the paper early!
Lu Dinghai felt his scalp tingling, he didn't even know who he had found as his opponent! !
There are former Sui generals and talented people who completed the imperial examination in half a day...
And the most terrifying thing is, how did Master Huaji in front of him know all this?
He was in Chang'an and had considerable influence, but he didn't even know that Qin Wenyuan had taken part in the imperial examination.
And the man in black robe not only knew that Qin Wenyuan was taking the imperial examination, but also knew that he would pass the exam?!
this……
What kind of intelligence power is this!
Lu Dinghai suppressed his inner anxiety and asked, "Then I don't know how to deal with Master Huaji, how should we deal with them?"
As he spoke, Lu Dinghai became more respectful.
The black-robed man smiled and replied, "While the hatred between you and Qin Wenyuan is not deep now and there is still time to turn back, are you sure you really want to deal with Qin Wenyuan?"
"My methods are all based on the death of a person. Either he dies or I die."
The words fell.
Lu Qian and Li Xiaoran next to them looked a little pale.
They value their lives very much and really don't want to get involved in this muddy water.
But Lu Dinghai narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and said seriously: "It's confirmed. I am now in a weak position in the family. If I want to seize the position of the next head of the family, the tea business is my last resort to turn the tables!"
"If I were to control and develop this Changyuan tea, it would surely spread across Chang'an and even other areas very quickly."
"By then, I will expand the influence of my own unique tea to various places, and with the support of my uncles, even if my father doesn't like me and doesn't want to pass the position of head of the family to me, he will have to look at my face!"
Hearing this, the man in black robes looked at Lu Dinghai deeply, then turned aside and said calmly: "Okay, I want Hu Guang and his Twelve Shadows to be stabbed to death. He has caused me a lot of trouble over the years."
"And you, Mr. Lu, want the Changyuan tea formula in Qin Wenyuan's hands. Then, the cooperation between us is concluded."
Lu Dinghai took a deep breath, "Then Master Huaji, what should we do first? How should we... deal with these extraordinary people?"
"In Chang'an, it is also my territory. If you need anything, I will bring it to you at all costs."
The man in black robe smiled and didn't care. Instead, he changed the subject and said seriously, "Mr. Lu, do you know that the price of grain in the north has risen sharply?"
Lu Dinghai frowned, wondering why the man in black robe brought this up. What did this have to do with their plan?
The man in black robe hooked his finger at him, "Mr. Lu, come closer and listen."
Lu Dinghai did not dare to delay and quickly checked his ears. The man in black robe whispered something in his ear.
When Lu Dinghai heard this, his eyes widened.
He looked at the black-robed man with a look of shock and said, "Master Huaji, if this is discovered, we... will be killed by everyone, which is the least of our worries. We may even be infamous !"
"Is it really worth it to take such a big risk just to deal with Qin Wenyuan and his uncle Hu Guang?"
The black-robed man chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Mr. Lu, you haven't fought with them enough times, so you don't know their true abilities."
"So, this is just the worst-case scenario. For now, you should prepare more manpower, and I will send someone to test Qin Wenyuan first."
"After all, I didn't see Qin Wenyuan take action in the confrontation with Hu Guang a few years ago, so I don't know his specific abilities. I have to test him first to know his true abilities."
"When the time comes, we will continue to discuss how to deal with them."
After the black-robed man finished speaking, he stood up and continued, "It's getting late, Master Lu, I'll leave first."
Lu Dinghai also stood up and nodded very seriously.
Then, he saw the man in black off. When he arrived at the door of Ruyi Tea Shop, the man in black stopped.
He glanced at the people around Lu Dinghai, including Lu Qian, Li Xiaoran, several of Li Xiaoran's confidants, and so on.
About 8 people.
"Mr. Lu, you have to be careful with those Twelve Shadow Assassins. If you want me to remind you, you should kill all the people who came out with me except Lu Qian. That's what you should do."
After saying this, without caring about Lu Dinghai's puzzled expression, Li Xiaoran and others' angry expressions, he left with his men.
"Sir, he is deliberately being mysterious!" Li Xiaoran said angrily.
Anyone who's life is treated so lightly and threatened to be eliminated would be angry!
He, Li Xiaoran, is no exception!
Although the few close associates behind him didn't say anything, the expressions on their faces said it all.
Lu Dinghai did not answer, but looked at them deeply, and then comforted them: "Okay, let's leave it at that. Let's wait for the news from Master Huaji first."
After saying that, he also left.
…
Two hours later .
At Ruyi Tea Shop, Li Xiaoran has already started packing his luggage.
He is ready to leave this troubled place!
Whether it was the man in black robe, the former Sui general, or Qin Wenyuan's imperial examination, it was far beyond his imagination.
In his mind, he was just a worker and it was impossible for him to risk his life for others.
"Master, where are you going?"
At this time, a man came over.
Li Xiaoran glanced at him and said calmly, "Liu Hong, it's you."
Liu Hong is the person he trusts the most. He was also the two's adviser when they arranged for the Tiger Bandits to assassinate Qin Wenyuan.
So, Li Xiaoran got straight to the point and said, "I'm going to leave Ruyi Tea Shop. It's going to be very dangerous here."
"Well, do you want to leave with me?"
Liu Hong thought about it seriously, then sighed and said, "I'll just forget it."
"Then remember to keep an eye on that thief Qin Wenyuan."
He smiled faintly and continued packing his luggage, not paying much attention to Liu Hong's answer.
Before leaving this time, Li Xiaoran packed up all the money he had embezzled from Ruyi Tea Shop over the years.
There was also a large carriage outside the door, which was specially used to transport silver for him.
When Li Xiaoran was packing a piece of clothing, he found that it was a bit stiff. After searching for a while, he realized that there were two taels of silver that he had forgotten to take out.
"When I get old, even the most important money is gone..."
He stopped talking halfway!
Because Li Xiaoran felt some pain in his body.
He subconsciously looked down and found a dagger that had pierced his heart.
"Master, my Master Wenyuan once told me to say hello to you before you die."
"Thank you for asking the thieves to assassinate me that day."
