Chapter 382: Returning One's Way to Them_3
Li Nuo briefly described the crimes committed by several Wang family heirs to him.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yun initially appeared incredulous, then showed anger and said: "These scoundrels, causing such trouble outside, I'm truly embarrassed. It's my family's lack of discipline. If Lord Li apprehends them, he should handle it justly without giving face to the Wang family!"
The words of the Wang Family Head were impeccable.
The Wang family is a renowned and influential clan. Li Nuo couldn't possibly conduct a thorough search inside and outside the Wang family. As long as the Wang family didn't permit it, he wouldn't be able to find anything.
After finishing a cup of tea, Li Nuo rose to take his leave.
The Wang Family Head wanted to gift him a box of fine tea cultivated by the Agricultural School, but Li Nuo politely declined.
As he watched the two figures depart, the smile on his face gradually faded.
The revenge of a son's death, the revenge of a brother's death, is irreconcilable. He longed to tear Li Xuanjing's son to pieces, but his identity was that of the court's Imperial Censor, and he was Li Xuanjing's son. If something were to happen within the Wang family's sphere of influence, it would drive Li Xuanjing mad, which wouldn't be good for anyone...
After all, many heirs of the Wang family had just passed the Advanced Scholar examinations, and this was for their sake...
"Who is this person?"
A voice suddenly appeared behind him, and Wang Yun turned around, immediately bowing: "Ancestor!"
He then supplemented: "This person is the son of Minister of Justice Li Xuanjing, who came to our Wang family to investigate a case. Those scoundrels caused trouble outside and were caught with evidence by him..."
The old man said in a deep voice: "He is escorted by a Sixth Realm Yin Yang School practitioner. This person himself is not simple; with a body full of Vast Qi, he is one step away from the Fifth Realm..."
The Wang Family Head said in astonishment: "He, Li Xuanjing's son, is about to become a Great Scholar?"
Though hard to accept internally, the words of the ancestor shouldn't be false.
The matter of Li Nuo is not important. He glanced outside and lowered his voice, saying: "Ancestor, those people contacted us again. They have certain news that within this year, Wei Country and Daxia will inevitably go to war. Opportunities are brewing in chaos, and whether our Wang family can enter Chang'an depends on this moment..."
The old man glanced at him and said coldly: "Foolish, do not believe a word from the School of Cross and Vertical; Wei Country's goal is to annex Daxia. If Daxia perishes, the Six Great Families will not be far from downfall..."
At this time, in another courtyard of the Wang family.
A young man entered the courtyard and said with a smile: "He's gone!"
As he spoke, the group of young people inside the courtyard visibly relaxed.
Only a lazily expressioned young man did not look at him but said indifferently: "I've already said, no one could possibly take you away from the Wang family, I don't know what you're all nervous about..."
"Haha, we do not have Young Master Wang's confidence."
"It seems even Li Nuo cannot do anything against the Wang family."
"Nonsense, this is Jinyang, it doesn't matter who comes..."
...
Three days later, Imperial Censor Li Nuo left Bing State.
Unlike his previous visits to regions where he would purge thoroughly, this time in Bing State, he hardly achieved anything, leaving somewhat embarrassingly...
Everyone knew whom he wanted to apprehend was hiding within the Wang family.
He also went to the Wang family.
But did not take anyone away from the Wang family.
This incident once again proved that Bing State belongs to the Wang family, even the most powerful Imperial Censor in history, holding the Imperial Sword, must relent before the Wang family.
In a certain tavern in Jinyang.
A group of young people was merrily drinking.
"What is Li Nuo, after all!"
"Hahaha, didn't he leave like a homeless dog?"
"This time, he should know who Bing State belongs to, right?"
"Drink, drink, drink!"
...
A young man tilted his head back and downed a mouthful of strong liquor, and the glass cup in his hand suddenly dropped to the ground, shattering to pieces.
Clutching his chest, he fell to the ground, his face unnaturally pale, and sweat poured from his forehead.
After a brief panic among the crowd, they quickly gathered around.
"Young Master Wang!"
"Brother Wang, Brother Wang what's wrong?"
"Quickly, quickly go and get the doctor!"
Upon seeing this, a figure swiftly ran out of the tavern, with the medical hall just across the road. As he crossed the street wanting to fetch the doctor to save Wang Shuo, he was suddenly hit by a speeding carriage and flew several yards away.
He hit the ground heavily, his entire body in excruciating pain, and Lu Xiu looked up at the sky as waves of dizziness washed over him.
At this moment, he was incredibly clear-minded, knowing he was about to die.
His father was the Governor of Bing State, and he did whatever he wanted in Bing State; just dying like this, he was unwilling...
But this was his final thought.
The carriage involved in the accident slowly stopped, and the coachman jumped down, cursing: "Wanting to die, don't you know how to look at the road!"
The figure lying on the ground did not respond. He kicked at him, but the person remained motionless.
Leaning down, he checked his breath and showed astonishment on his face.
"Dead..."
A female voice came from the carriage: "Wang Fu, what's wrong?"
The coachman ran back and stood in front of the carriage, saying: "Miss, someone suddenly crossed the road and was hit dead..."
Another female voice from inside the carriage said: "Little sister, I told you not to drive fast in the city, but you wouldn't listen, and now it has resulted in a death, hasn't it?"
Inside the carriage, the woman pursed her lips and said: "So what?"
At this moment, the coachman seemed to realize something and muttered: "Misses, it seems the person who got hit was Governor Lu's son."
The woman still seemed unconcerned and said indifferently: "What if it's his son, if he has the guts, let him come to the Wang family to catch me..."
Without looking at the corpse by the roadside, she urged: "Let's go back quickly, I've arranged to admire the flowers with sister-in-law, we mustn't be late..."
