Chapter 357: The Action Plan of the Nobodies

“Hey, hold on.” When Shi and Long were about to leave, Xu stopped them.

“Hmm?” Long turned his head. “What’s wrong? Is there anything else?”

Xu said immediately, “I don’t know how that dragon appeared!”

Long stopped abruptly. He looked at the man beside him and blinked. “Yeah, Qingzhou, I also want to know that. If Xu hadn’t asked, I would have forgotten it.”

After hearing that, Shi said calmly, “It’s very simple. That was just a kind of fireworks.”

Long was surprised. “Such big fire and heavy smoke were actually created by fireworks?”

“Yes. Two of Wang Qi’s men did it. They used to make fireworks.”

“Whoa.” Long gasped and gave his empress a thumbs up. “Wonderful!”

Shi raised his eyebrows. “Don’t praise me. It wasn’t done by me.”

“You thought of this idea. It’s really impressive,” Long said immediately. He thought of the fireworks in the modern world, with which people could make the shapes of animals like a dragon or write characters as “happy birthday”.

Shi asked others to make a character “shuo” with the fireworks. Well, it should be made in the same way.

But it was really awesome!

Those people that Wang Qi brought there were really useful!

Long was very satisfied with it.

Fang never thought that the “miracle” about him was actually made by fireworks. “But aren’t the fireworks only visible at night?”

Shi said calmly, “Some special things were added. I don’t know much about fireworks. You can go ask Wang Qi.”

Fang immediately shook his head. “It’s unnecessary. I’m just a little curious. But he’s really helped a lot. If he needs anything, just tell me.”

Long waved his hand. “There’s no need. Anyway, we all have the same purpose.”

Fang got to know Wang Qi and the others through Long, so he nodded. “Okay, elder brother, Brother Shi, it’s all up to you. If there is anything I need to do, you can just order me.”

Long rolled his eyes. “We dare not. You’re the fourth prince, alright? Who dares to order you? Even if you agree, your dear Xu You won’t!”

“I’m not as narrow-minded as you,” Xu said immediately.

Long curled his lips. “Am I narrow-minded? I’m always very generous, okay?”

The two of them began to bicker again. In the end, Shi dragged Long away.

After Long left, Xu immediately went into Fang’s arms. “My elder brother is really annoying! Why can’t he humor me a little?”

Fang found it both funny and annoying.

After Shi and Long went out, Long also said, “My younger brother isn’t lovely at all. Why can’t he humor me a little?”

Shi thought it unbelievable and glanced at Long. “It’s always the elder brother who humors the younger one, not the other way round.”

“No way,” Long said disapprovingly, “The younger one should tolerate his elder brother. This is called respecting the elderly. This is filial piety!”

Shi became speechless.

After the two of them left, they went to the old place to change clothes, and then went to Wang Qi’s.

Wang Qi and his men were staying there. The weather wasn’t so good. It might rain in the afternoon.

So they planned to rest for a day at home.

Despite that, those who had other work to do had all gone out.

Therefore, there were only Wang Qi, Wang Mao and a subordinate staying in the house.

When Wang Qi and Wang Mao saw Long and Shi approaching, they greeted them immediately.

“Brother Lin, welcome.”

Long smiled and nodded. “Well, Wang Qi, this time the plan went smoothly. You and your two brothers have contributed the most!”

Upon hearing this, Wang Qi shook his head with a smile. “We’re flattered. It’s all about good luck.”

Long smiled and praised them more. Then, Long and Shi went to the room to talk with Wang Qi.

Not long after, Wang Shu came back, with a gloomy face.

Wang Mao hadn’t entered the room. When he saw that Wang Shu came back unhappily, he immediately went over.

“What’s wrong with you? What happened?”

Wang Shu said, “Where is elder brother?”

“He and Lin Yuan are in the room,” Wang Mao said at once.

“Lin Yuan is also here?” Wang Shu became happy. “I’ll go meet him.”

Wang Mao knew something must have happened, so he followed up.

When the knock on the door sounded, Long had just finished his plan and was discussing some details with Wang Qi.

“Who’s that?” Wang Qi asked.

“Brother, it’s me,” Wang Shu answered right away.

“Oh, it’s you.” Wang Qi went over and opened the door. “Didn’t you go out? Why did you come back so early?”

“Brother, there’s something wrong.”

“Hmm?” Wang Qi became serious. “Come in.”

Wang Mao also stepped into the room.

Long smiled and greeted Wang Shu before asking, “What’s wrong? What happened?”

Wang Shu began to explain the whole thing.

The target of their action this time was a logistics manager in the imperial garden.

The logistic manager was a position in there and he should be responsible for procurement and logistics services.

That man was somewhat related to Wang Qi. He received help from Wang family many years ago and also helped when Wang Qi escaped.

Therefore, Wang Qi sent Wang Shu to contact him.

Moreover, Wang Qi and his men also had something to do with Fang, the fourth prince.

So it had become more convenient.

After talking with that man for three times, he finally changed his mind.

Wang Qi just asked him to do something in his power when necessary.

At present, everyone in the imperial city knew that Fang was the chosen one after the sacrifice ceremony at Western Mountain.

So that man made up his mind to work with them.

However, when they were talking secretly, that man’s concubine and brother-in-law broke in.

His brother-in-law almost regarded Wang Shu as an assassin!

Besides, those two people should have heard something!

Under normal circumstances, Wang Shu could notice someone coming.

But his concubine and brother-in-law came directly through a secret passage.

That man and his brother-in-law had commercial intercourse, and it was quite secretive.

He didn’t want other people to know that he was still “doing business.”

Thus, his brother-in-law would come through the secret passage every time. His concubine naturally knew that. Otherwise, the two of them wouldn’t break in together.

What Wang Shu talked about was very important, so he really wanted to kill the two people.

In Wang Shu’s view, a concubine and her elder brother were nothing at all. That wasn’t his lawful wife. It was totally reasonable to kill them.

So what if that was his lawful wife? A woman shouldn’t be involved in such a thing that might get the entire family killed.

Wang Shu was an outlaw, so he didn’t take killings seriously.

Unexpectedly, that man desperately stopped him.

Wang Shu tried to persuade him.

But that man said that if Wang Shu wanted to kill his concubine, just kill him first.

In the end, Wang Shu could only give up and pacify him.

That man also calmed down and promised not to let his concubine mention it.

Therefore, Wang Shu could only go back first, but he felt that this was a hidden danger and wanted to discuss with Wang Qi what to do.

After hearing that, Wang Qi frowned.

Wang Shu was a little nervous. “Sorry, brother, I wasn’t careful enough.”

“They came through a secret passage. It’s normal that you didn’t notice them,” Long spoke first.

Wang Shu felt very sorry. “We don’t understand those two people at all. If they ruin our action plan…”

Long smiled faintly. “Every person we’ve roped in may do it.”

Both Wang Shu and Wang Qi were slightly stunned.

Long continued, “But since you found them, his concubine and brother-in-law need to be investigated. Besides, they must be investigated thoroughly. If there’s a big problem with their characters… we can only take extreme measures.”

Shi also nodded. “That’s right.”

Wang Qi said immediately, “I will check it myself.”

“Okay.” Long nodded. “It’s settled then. You can decide it yourself.”

“Thank you for your suggestion, Brother Lin,” Wang Qi said.

Long shook his head with a smile. “Brother Wang, don’t mention it. We’ve discussed the plan just now. I believe that you can perfect it and I won’t care about the details. It is not convenient for us to stay here longer, so we will take our leave.”

Wang Qi nodded. “Okay. Brother Lin, be careful on the way.”

“Don’t worry. We’ll be fine.” Long smiled and left with Shi…

After Long and Shi left, Wang Qi called Wang Shu over and carefully asked about the details of his contact with that man in the imperial garden…
