Xiyu's days in the village were busy and fulfilling.

He goes into the greenhouse with the farmers every day and studies greenhouse technology carefully.

After several days of unremitting efforts, we finally achieved gratifying results.

The crops in the greenhouse are growing well and are full of vitality.

The villagers gathered around the greenhouse with bright smiles on their faces.

"That's great! If we continue like this, we can really increase production." A villager said excitedly.

"The Prime Minister's idea is indeed good." Another villager also nodded in praise.

Xi Yu looked at the joy of the villagers and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

He knew that his efforts were not in vain and that these achievements would bring a better life to the villagers.

However, Xi Yu also understood that this was just the beginning.

They also need to continuously improve and perfect greenhouse technology to ensure continued good harvests of crops.

He discussed the next plan with the villagers, and everyone was full of confidence and enthusiasm.

Xi Yu looked at the head of the village, who was full of joy, and said seriously: "If the greenhouse technology in this village is effective, then you can promote it in other villages in the future."

The village head was slightly stunned, with a hint of hesitation on his face. "Is it necessary to promote it in other places?" He asked with a hint of doubt in his tone.

Xi Yu's eyes became serious, he frowned slightly and said, "You can't be too selfish. If this technology can help more villagers increase their production and improve their lives, why not promote it?"

The village head was struck to the heart by Xi Yu's words, and a look of shame appeared on his face.

He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said firmly: "The Prime Minister is right, I am narrow-minded. I will definitely agree to the Prime Minister's request and promote this technology in other villages."

Over time, this small village has undergone tremendous changes due to greenhouse technology.

Xi Yu's name was also praised by the people and became their hope and support.

On this day, Lei Tianlong's son Lei Bo returned home exhausted.

He was originally full of joy, but as soon as he entered the house, he noticed a heavy atmosphere in the house.

Looking at his mother, Mrs. Fang's sad face, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Lei Bo asked anxiously.

Mrs. Fang's eyes were red and she said in a trembling voice, "Bo'er, your father...your father is dead."

Lei Bo was struck by lightning, and his body shook violently. "How could it be? How could Dad..." He couldn't believe his ears.

Mrs. Fang choked up as she recounted what had happened.

Lei Bo listened quietly, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.

When he heard that all this was related to the Prime Minister, rage burned in his eyes.

"I can't swallow this!" Lei Bo clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. His heart was filled with anger and hatred. He decided to avenge his father and make the prime minister pay the price.

Lei Bo began to plan his own revenge plan. He had only one thought in his mind: to avenge his father.

And his fate also took a major turn at this moment.

Lei Bo was busy running around in the business outside and had no idea that such a huge change had happened at home.

The family sent someone to deliver the message, but the journey was long and the trip took a lot of time.

Lei Bo walked slowly to his father's spirit tablet, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed several times.

His heart was filled with regret and grief. He hated himself for not being able to see his father for the last time before he died, and for not being able to see him off for the last time.

"Dad, I am an unfilial son..." Lei Bo choked with sobs, his voice full of pain. He stood up and looked around, looking at the sad

When Mrs. Fang learned that her son Lei Bo wanted revenge, she was shocked and hurried forward to stop him.

"Bo'er, you can't do that! Your father's death is indeed heartbreaking, but that was all because of the bandits. You can't put all the blame on the prime minister." Mrs. Fang's face was full of anxiety and worry.

Lei Bo's eyes were red, and he said stubbornly: "No, mother, this has something to do with the prime minister. I must avenge my father."

Seeing her son like this, Mrs. Fang became more and more anxious.

"Bo'er, don't be stupid. We are just ordinary people, how can we possibly deal with the prime minister? He is a man of high power. If we go against him, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg." Mrs. Fang held Lei Bo's arm tightly, trying to make him give up this dangerous idea.

Lei Bo broke free from his mother's hand.

"Mom, even if I die, I will avenge Dad. I can't let Dad die in vain." His tone was firm and unquestionable.

Lei Bo stood outside the door of Xi Yu's residence, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his surging emotions.

He gently pushed the door open, and Lei Bo's footsteps sounded in the silent space.

Xi Yu and Ouyang Lian were concentrating on playing chess on the chessboard when they suddenly heard the unexpected footsteps and both stopped what they were doing at the same time.

Xi Yu frowned slightly, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

He looked up at the door and saw a strange figure slowly approaching.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Xi Yu's voice was steady and powerful, revealing an unquestionable majesty.

Lei Bo bowed slightly and introduced himself with a complicated expression: "Prime Minister, I am Lei Bo, the son of Lei Tianlong. I have been doing business outside before, and I didn't expect to miss my father's funeral. Recently, I heard that the Prime Minister has developed the village very well, so I came to visit."

Xi Yu looked at Lei Bo in front of him, with a hint of emotion in his eyes: "I am also deeply sorry about your father's death. Your father did die at the hands of bandits, but don't worry, these bandits will be caught sooner or later to avenge your father."

Lei Bo showed a trace of grief on his face: "Thank you for your concern, Prime Minister. If we can bring the bandits to justice, it will comfort my father's spirit in heaven."

However, deep in his heart, he was filled with hatred towards Xi Yu.

"Since you are here, you might as well stay in the village for a few more days and see our development results. Perhaps you can also find some business opportunities and open up new areas for your business." Xi Yu said sincerely.

Lei Bo hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Thank you for your kindness, Prime Minister. I will consider it."

Lei Bo's eyes fell on the chessboard, and a trace of thought flashed in his eyes. Then, he asked, "Can I play a game of chess with the Prime Minister?"

Ouyang Lian frowned slightly and was about to say something, but saw Xi Yu smiled lightly, nodded in agreement and said: "Since you are so interested, then come on."

Lei Bo was delighted, but he walked to the chessboard and sat down calmly.

He began to arrange the chess pieces, secretly thinking that he could use the excuse of playing chess to frequently contact the prime minister in the future and look for opportunities for revenge.

When the game started, Lei Bo stared at the chessboard intently and took every step very cautiously.

Xi Yu was not in a hurry and responded calmly.

Ouyang Lian watched the two people playing chess from the side, but he did not relax his vigilance at all.

As the game progressed, Lei Bo felt more and more that Xi Yu was meticulous and had superb chess skills.

He had to be more careful in his layout to avoid revealing any flaws. Xi Yu also gradually realized that Lei Bo's chess style was unusual, and he became more curious about this young man.

After the game, although Lei Bo lost in the end, he was not discouraged.

He stood up and bowed respectfully to Xi Yu: "Prime Minister, your chess skills are superb. I admire you."

Xi Yu smiled and waved his hand: "You play chess well, too. We can learn from each other more when we have the chance."

Lei Bo nodded and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister. I will definitely come again to ask for your advice."

After saying that, he turned and left, already planning the next contact in his mind.

The next day, the sun was shining on the earth, and Lei Bo came to Xiyu's residence early.

He begged sincerely, "My Lord Prime Minister, I beg you to play another game of chess with me."

Xi Yu looked at Lei Bo's eager eyes and nodded slightly in agreement. Then, he turned to Ouyang Lian and said, "Go to the fields and see how things are going."

Although Ouyang Lian was a little hesitant, he still followed the order and left.

Lei Bo was secretly delighted, thinking that this was just right. He had been thinking that Ouyang Lian might stop him when he took action later, so now it was a good thing.

He tried hard to suppress his inner excitement, sat opposite Xi Yu, and prepared to start the chess game.

On the chessboard, the black and white chess pieces clashed again, but Lei Bo's mind was no longer on the chess.

His eyes kept glancing at Xiyu, holding a chess piece tightly in his hand, as if he was waiting for the best opportunity. Xiyu was concentrating on the chess game, and seemed not to notice Lei Bo's abnormality.

After a while, Lei Bo looked at Xi Yu's extremely focused appearance when playing chess, and thought to himself that the time had come.

His eyes suddenly became fierce, and without hesitation he took out the dagger hidden on his body and stabbed Xi Yu fiercely.

However, Xi Yu is no ordinary person.

Years of political career and his alertness in complex environments enabled him to sense danger the moment it approached.

Almost at the same time when Lei Bo made his move, Xi Yu reached out his hand with astonishing speed and tightly grasped Lei Bo's wrist holding the dagger.

Lei Bo was shocked. He didn't expect Xi Yu to react so quickly.

He struggled hard, trying to break free from Xiyu's control, but Xiyu's hands were like iron clamps, locking him tightly.

"Who are you? Why do you want to assassinate me?" Xi Yu glared at Lei Bo and asked harshly.

Lei Bo gritted his teeth, his eyes full of hatred.

"You killed my father, I want to avenge him!"

"Calm down first and talk nicely." Xi Yu tried to persuade Lei Bo.

But Lei Bo was so blinded by hatred at this time that he could not listen to Xi Yu's words at all. He still struggled desperately and wanted to stab Xi Yu again.

Xi Yu held him tightly, not daring to relax at all.

Yesterday, he felt that something was wrong with Lei Bo. That vague feeling of strangeness was like a thorn in his heart.

At this time, the secret guard quietly appeared, knelt on one knee, and said with a tone full of guilt: "I am late, please punish me, Prime Minister."

Xi Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of disdain, and sneered: "Humph, for such a little ant, this Prime Minister can deal with it himself."

Lei Bo was kicked to the ground by Xi Yu, making a dull sound.

Xi Yu looked down at him, his eyes full of mockery.

"What? Are you going to imitate Jing Ke and assassinate the King of Qin? Humph, don't you see your own weight? I, the Prime Minister, am not a prince, and you are even less worthy of being Jing Ke." Xi Yu's words pierced Lei Bo like an ice blade.

Lei Bo lay on the ground with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were shining with an unyielding light.

He struggled to stand up, but was suppressed by Xi Yu's momentum.

Xi Yu watched Lei Bo's struggle coldly, but the anger in his heart did not subside.

Lei Bo lay on the ground, full of resentment and regret. At this moment, he discovered the secret guard who had been hiding in the dark.

The secret guard stood there quietly like a ghost, exuding a chilling aura.

Lei Bo's heart sank, and he finally realized how wrong he was.

How could it be so easy to assassinate the prime minister when he was away from home? He was too conceited and thought that his plan would succeed, but he didn't expect that the prime minister had such a powerful secret guard protecting him.

Xi Yu looked stern. He raised his chin slightly and signaled the secret guards to control Lei Bo.

The secret guard moved quickly, like a flash of black shadow, and instantly subdued Lei Bo.

Lei Bo's face was full of despair, but he was powerless to resist.

Seeing this, Xi Yu sneered and asked, "Why, are you blaming Lei Tianlong's death on me, the Prime Minister?"

Lei Bo glared at him and replied without hesitation: "Isn't it? It was because my father doubted your position as prime minister that I went to Fangjun City."

Xi Yu's eyes shone, and he said in a deep voice: "Why did your father suspect me? He was just looking for trouble." Lei Bo bit his lip tightly, his heart filled with grief and indignation. He believed that Xi Yu was responsible for his father's death, but facing Xi Yu's dominance, he didn't know how to refute.

Xi Yu raised his chin slightly and emphasized again: "This matter is indeed related to the bandits, and this Prime Minister is also very sad. This Prime Minister promises that he will catch the bandits, not only for your father, but also for the surrounding elders and villagers."

He continued, "I, the Prime Minister, can understand your feelings, but your approach is completely wrong."

Lei Bo remained silent, but his eyes revealed stubbornness and reluctance.

Although he didn't say anything, he disagreed in his heart.

A moment later, Ouyang Lian hurried back.

Xi Yu told the story of Lei Bo's assassination with a gloomy face.

Ouyang Lian was shocked when he heard this, his eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.

"Is this true? How could Lei Bo be so bold?" Ouyang Lian was shocked, his brows furrowed.

Xi Yu snorted coldly, "This man is ignorant of his own limitations and attempted to assassinate this Prime Minister. If this Prime Minister had not noticed it, I'm afraid he would have killed me today."

Xi Yu's eyes were as sharp as torches, and he said to Ouyang Lian decisively: "You must quickly go to the village to spread this news, and you must tell Sister Fang."

Ouyang Lian nodded slightly and left.

Then, Xi Yu ordered the secret guards: "Take Lei Bo to the fields at the entrance of the village, and let more villagers go there."

The secret guards immediately took action and escorted Lei Bo quickly towards the fields at the entrance of the village.

Xi Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes revealing a hint of majesty. He wanted to let the villagers know what Lei Bo had done, and at the same time take this opportunity to show everyone that his authority could not be violated.

As a governor, Ouyang naturally couldn't go door to door to inform everyone. He quickly found a villager and solemnly told him: "Go and inform everyone to come to the fields." The villager took the order and ran to tell others.

Soon, the news spread in the village. Many villagers rushed to the fields, all of them were shocked, and never expected Lei Bo to do such a rebellious thing. Along the way, the villagers talked about it, and their words were full of astonishment and confusion.

As more and more villagers gathered in the fields at the entrance of the village, the atmosphere became tense and solemn.

Lei Bo was escorted by the secret guards. Although he was under their control, he showed no intention of begging for mercy.

Mrs. Fang was busy at home when she suddenly heard the news that Lei Bo was trying to assassinate the Prime Minister.

She just felt a buzzing sound in her head and her whole body collapsed to the ground instantly.

Tears flowed out like a flood, and she cried desperately, "I told my son not to do this, but he just wouldn't listen. Now it's good, assassinating the prime minister is a grave crime, isn't it, the extermination of the entire clan?"

Mrs. Fang's cries echoed in the house, filled with helplessness and fear.

More and more villagers gathered in the fields, and the atmosphere was solemn and tense.

Mrs. Fang came here crying and saw her son Lei Bo kneeling on the ground.

Her heart suddenly tightened and tears welled up in her eyes again.

Seeing his mother crying, Lei Bo felt very uncomfortable.

However, now that things have come to this, he doesn't know how to make amends.

Soon, people's discussions gradually stopped, because they saw Xi Yu walking towards them.

Xi Yu walked with steady steps and a stern look, exuding an aura of authority that came from without him getting angry.

Seeing Xi Yu coming, Mrs. Fang quickly came to his side and knelt down with a plop.

Her face was full of tears, and her voice was trembling as she said, "Prime Minister, my son is ignorant, and it is all because of my failure to educate him well. I hope you will not hurt my son. I will bear all the blame. My husband is already dead, and I don't want to lose another son."

In the fields, people were talking about it.

"Lei Bo committed a capital crime. How can the prime minister forgive him so easily? Lei Bo is dead now." A villager said worriedly.

"Yes, Mrs. Fang is really pitiful. Her father just died, and now she's gone with her son too. How are they going to live in the future?" another villager echoed, his face full of sympathy.

"But the law is ruthless. What can we do?" Someone sighed helplessly.

Xi Yu didn't say anything to the other party's sister-in-law, but turned and walked towards the crowd.

Finally, he looked at Lei Bo coldly and asked sternly, "Do you plead guilty?" But Lei Bo pursed his lips stubbornly and said nothing.

Seeing this, Xi Yu turned to the other sister-in-law and said, "Look, he's asking me to forgive him with this attitude, how is that possible?"

Mrs. Fang was extremely worried when she heard this. She turned to Lei Bo and said anxiously, "Son, confess your guilt quickly!"

However, Lei Bo remained stubborn and said loudly: "I did nothing wrong. It is me who does not have the ability to kill the Prime Minister."

As soon as he said this, many people around him gasped, feeling that his words were too bold.

Xi Yu's face became even gloomier. He looked at Lei Bo with a hint of danger in his eyes. (End of this chapter)
