I'm the villain in the book

"Master Wei, this painting is a gift from a friend of mine."

Li Kan said sternly: "I didn't know the value at that time, otherwise I would definitely not accept it!"

"Clap clap clap!"

The sound of applause suddenly echoed in the quiet hall, full of mockery.

Looking at Li Kan's blushing face, Wei Changtian clapped his hands and smiled, "Lord Li's words are a bit modest. It's just a mere daughter, so it shouldn't mean anything to you."

"Master Wei! What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean?"

Wei Changtian got up, walked to the landscape map, stood still, reached out and touched a small boat drawn on it.

"Just the treasure hidden behind this wall is enough to buy dozens of Ye Yian's paintings."

"..."

"Clang clang! Puff!"

The sound of tables and chairs overturning came after a while, and an old Li Kan was so frightened that he fell directly to the ground.

This time, he had no choice at all.

"Wei, Young Master Wei, I will let you send me from now on, and please, please raise your hand, raise your hand..."

Wei Changtian didn't look back, didn't answer, just asked the question just now: "Where are those people hidden by the Liu family?"

"Ren, Ren'an Square, Huaihua Lane..."

Chapter 28 It's Only Near Dusk

At dusk, Wei Changtian's carriage drove away from the Li residence.

Different from when he came, this time Li Kan was sent all the way to the door.

Li Yang was very surprised by his father's transformation, and even more curious about what the two of them said after he left.

But of course Li Kan wouldn't tell him, he just looked at his son and sighed heavily.

As an official, the higher you go, the more dangerous you are.

He originally wanted to stay in the cracks and be alone, but who would have thought that his head would be pinched by a junior.

Up to now, it is useless to think too much, and I can only hope that the famous demon king of the Wei family will rely on the truth, and don't bring yourself into the ditch.

"Ugh……"

Li Kan was worried about his own fate, and Wei Changtian in the carriage looked at the two pieces of paper in his hand and shook his head and sighed.

One is a list of witnesses, and the other is a "letter of rebellion" written by Li Kan just now.

With these two things, even if he grabbed Li Kan's seven inches, he was not afraid that he would not be obedient in the future.

Although this result was basically in line with the expectations before coming, Wei Changtian still felt that the process was not too smooth.

In fact, he didn't plan to threaten Li Kan at first, he originally wanted to save the card of "huge embezzlement" for later use.

But at that time, Li Kan was undecided, obviously he couldn't trust himself, and finally he had to play his cards in advance.

Putting the two pieces of paper in his chest and putting them away, Xiao Feng thought again in his mind.

I don't know what he is doing now, and what is he thinking about.

If it was Xiao Feng just now, it is estimated that with just a few words, Li Kan would have to surrender.

What a protagonist halo!

Wei Changtian angrily pulled the curtain and looked around.

At this time, we were going to the downtown area, and the pedestrians were rubbing shoulders.

Since the national war with Dafeng in the west 200 years ago, Daning has never experienced a major war. Even the poisonous demons and goblins have been killed by tens of thousands of "willow leaves" in recent years. up.

In such a peaceful and prosperous world, most of the people naturally live well, and they even forget how long this peace lasted.

At the end of the line of sight, there is the last gentle orange-red twilight on the sky of Crab Shell Green.

Looking at this beautiful and peaceful sunset scene, Wei Changtian suddenly muttered something in a low voice for no reason.

The sunset is infinitely good, just near dusk.

……

When Wei Changtian returned to Wei Mansion, it was just in time for dinner.

He never came back, and he didn't send someone to bring back the message. Lu Jingyao and others naturally didn't dare to eat first, so they all stayed in the courtyard and waited.

Then he went to the poker table again.

"Madam, how many cards do you have?" Yuan'er asked cautiously, frowning.

"Two." Lu Jingyao answered with a smile while covering the piece of paper in her hand.

"That……"

Yuan'er was overjoyed and gently placed a five on the table.

"Ma'am, I will issue a five."

"ten!"

Lu Jingyao threw the only card in her hand in an instant, and spread her hands happily: "I won!"

"what?"

Yuan'er was stunned for a while, and after she understood it, she shouted in dissatisfaction, "Madam! You lied!"

"I, I am a soldier who never tires of deceit."

Lu Jingyao's face was a little red, but the slightly raised corners of her mouth still revealed her inner joy.

"Young master always uses this trick to deceive me, but I never thought that my wife would also learn it..."

Yuan'er pouted and wanted to continue condemning Lu Jingyao, but Qiu Yun suddenly hit her in the head.

"If you lose, you lose. Where do you get so many words!"

When Yuan'er heard this, even Qiuyun didn't stand on her side, and she was even more aggrieved: "Young master says this every time! You, you bully people!"

"you……"

Qiuyun felt a headache when she saw Yuaner who was about to cry, but Lu Jingyao felt even more guilty at this time, and hurriedly grabbed Yuaner's hand and comforted:

"It's my fault. I won't lie to you when I play cards in the future. Don't cry."

"Husband, madam, is this true?"

"really!"

"...Hee hee! I knew that Madam is the most sensible!"

Yuan'er smiled instantly, and there was still half a bit of grievance.

Only then did Lu Jingyao understand that she had been fooled by this girl, and she was so angry and funny that she let go of her and ignored her. After putting the cards together, she greeted:

"Come on, another round!"

"Okay ma'am!"

"..."

"Call the devil!"

"I rob!"

"..."

The breeze blew through the pavilion, and under the slightly swaying blue silk were three pretty faces with their own characteristics, but all of them were charming.

Such an alternative master-servant relationship is simply inconceivable in other big families, but in Wei Changtian, this is the norm.

Lu Jingyao, who successfully grabbed the "devil" again, was very happy, especially when she saw Yuan'er's wrinkled face because of her bad cards, she almost laughed out loud.

But just as she pursed her lips and sorted out the cards in her hands happily, a slightly sad thought suddenly flashed into her mind.

It's been a long time since I laughed like this...

"Madam, what are you thinking? Play your cards!"

"...What are you urging! I'm going to leave now!"

……

During dinner, Wei Changtian always felt that something was wrong with Lu Jingyao.

She usually doesn't say a word during meals, but this time she actually took the initiative to ask about visiting Li Kan, and even threatened to go to the street in a few days to buy some fabrics and sew clothes for herself.

I'm afraid it's not a shroud...

Wei Changtian was taken aback by his own thoughts, and quickly rejected the "kindness".

And swallowed a few big mouthfuls of rice in a row.

Lu Jingyao seemed a little disappointed by this, and returned to the normal state of eating with her head down.

Wei Changtian didn't bother to care what she was thinking. After eating in a hurry, he changed clothes and went to Wei Xianzhi to discuss the matter of Li's house today.

The whole process went smoothly, and Wei Xianzhi was naturally shocked.

However, Wei Changtian didn't tell all his stories, he just selectively talked about Zhang Hongwen's feeding of demons and the tribunal of the three divisions.

As for Li's "letter of rebellion", it was never presented.

This move is not to distrust Wei Xianzhi.

But Wei Changtian felt that it was time to start forming a force that was only loyal to himself.

"Wang Er."

On the way back, he suddenly asked Wang Er who was carrying the lantern: "How long have you been at Wei's house?"

"Master Hui, the villain entered the Wei family at the age of five."

Wang Er replied truthfully: "It has been 30 years now."

"Ah."

Wei Changtian nodded, and asked straightforwardly, "Then will you betray the Wei family one day?"

"No way!"

Although this question is somewhat nonsensical, Wang Er answered in a deep voice without thinking:

"Master, although the villain is not very talented, he is born from the Wei family, and died as a ghost of the Wei family! Even if you ask me to kill the emperor now, I will never frown!"

Wei Changtian nodded: "Well, I believe in your loyalty to the Wei family, but..."

"What if I want you to be loyal only to me in the future?"

"..."

Allegiance to the Wei family, allegiance to the only son of the Wei family.

At first glance it seems that there is no difference between the two.

But Wang Er understood the difference.

The light in the lantern trembled suddenly, and the surroundings fell into a dead silence.

I don't know how long it took before a sentence suddenly sounded in the darkness.

"Yes, son."

Chapter 29

Tianji 15th year, August [-]th.

Ren'anfang is a lifang in the south of the capital. There are hundreds of families living in it, most of them are businessmen doing small business nearby.

The Huaihua Lane is the smallest street in Ren'an Square. There are not many pedestrians on weekdays, but every year in March and April, some people come to pick the Huaihua flowers and take them home to cook or steam them.

Other than that, it is difficult for anyone to remember this ordinary alley.
