#239 - The Li family? The Li family!
Qin Buyi said, "Where is Wang Chenghai? When does Dean He plan to take action?"
He Yan said, "There's no need to rush this matter."
"We can take this opportunity to eliminate the traitors of the Great Qin Dynasty hidden within our Great Ming Dynasty."
Speaking of this, a trace of murderous intent flashed in He Yan's eyes: "To be able to help a powerhouse of Wang Chenghai's level escape the Great Ming Imperial City, the traitor hidden within our Great Ming Dynasty must hold a high position."
"This kind of traitor has grown up under the grace of the Great Ming Dynasty, but now they betray the Great Ming! They deserve to die!"
Qin Buyi said, "Does Dean He mean to use a counter-plot?"
He Yan said, "That's what I mean, to use a counter-plot to uproot the traitors hidden in my Great Ming Dynasty and wipe them out completely!"
"Even if we can't wipe them out completely, we must make the high-level traitors of the Great Qin Dynasty planted in the Great Ming disappear completely."
After He Yan finished speaking, Qin Buyi understood He Yan's meaning.
Qin Buyi nodded and said, "That's good, the Great Ming Dynasty is about to start a full-scale war with the Great Qin Dynasty."
"At this time, clearing out all these high-level traitors will eliminate the worry of these people suddenly turning against us during the war."
He Yan said, "That's right, Qin friend, come with me."
...The residence of Wang Chenghai, the Second Dean of the Great Ming Academy.
Wang Chenghai did not leave during Qin Buyi's conferment ceremony.
Almost all the important figures of the Great Ming Dynasty attended Qin Buyi's Dean Conferment Ceremony.
Most importantly, the number one person of the Great Ming Dynasty, Ying Gan, was also present. Choosing to escape at that time would be like an old man hanging himself, courting death.
After the Dean Conferment Ceremony, Wang Chenghai had been waiting.
According to the Great Qin Dynasty, someone would arrange for him to leave the Great Ming Imperial City.
Time passed by, and soon it was completely dark.
He Yan deliberately created the illusion of staying in Qin Buyi's advanced mentor area.
The purpose was to make Wang Chenghai relax a little.
This wait lasted until the next morning.
He Yan and Qin Buyi, who were in the dark, had been observing Wang Chenghai's movements all night.
Qin Buyi said to He Yan, "This Wang Chenghai is really cautious, he still hasn't taken action?"
He Yan said, "How could Wang Chenghai, who has firmly occupied the position of Second Dean of the Great Ming Academy for so many years, be an impatient person?"
"However... it should be soon."
"If they don't act today, the probability of Wang Chenghai escaping the Great Ming Imperial City will become infinitely small."
Qin Buyi asked with some doubts, "How does Dean He know that the other party is about to act?"
He Yan smiled slightly and said, "I have already greeted His Highness Ying Zhi, and now the guards outside the Great Ming Imperial City are being strengthened."
"At the same time, the intensity of checking people entering and leaving the Great Ming Imperial City has also increased a lot."
"The increased guards in the Great Ming Imperial City must have attracted the other party's attention."
"As long as the other party still wants to obtain value from Wang Chenghai, then they will inevitably take action."
Qin Buyi looked at He Yan and said, "Dean He Yan, your move is a conspiracy."
He Yan said, "Haha, the initiative is in our hands. How could we let the other party control us?"
Sure enough, not long after He Yan finished speaking.
A butler-like person came to Wang Chenghai's residence, with the character 'Li' printed on the butler's chest.
The butler opened the gate of Wang Chenghai's residence and stepped inside.
When Wang Chenghai saw the person coming, his eyes narrowed and said, "A member of the Li family?"
The butler said with a smile, "In response to your Excellency, yes."
Wang Chenghai tentatively asked, "I have a question these past few days. Regarding Ming and Qin, is Ming above or Qin above?"
The butler replied, "Has your Excellency had breakfast yet?"
These two seemingly unrelated sentences were the secret code agreed upon by Wang Chenghai and the Great Qin Dynasty.
An ordinary person would definitely answer Wang Chenghai's question normally.
The brilliance of this secret code lies in the fact that once the other party answers or does not say the correct secret code.
It allows Wang Chenghai to be aware of it immediately and take action accordingly.
After the butler said this sentence, Wang Chenghai felt a little more at ease.
The identity of the person in front of him has been confirmed. Wang Chenghai looked up and down at this Li family butler.
During this period of time, Wang Chenghai had thought of many candidates, but he never expected that the one who betrayed the Great Ming Dynasty would be the famous Li family.
The Li family is one of the oldest families in the Great Ming Dynasty.
It was once believed by the outside world that even if the Great Ming Dynasty was destroyed, the Li family would not betray it.
But such a dramatic scene happened. The Li family, who was thought to be impossible to betray, turned to the Great Qin Dynasty.
Taking advantage of people's habitual thinking, the Li family successfully hid in the Great Ming Imperial City for many years, providing many confidential intelligence to the Great Qin Dynasty.
This time, if Wang Chenghai didn't have the special status of the Dean of the Great Ming Academy, the Great Qin Dynasty would not have exposed the Li family.
But there was no way. As the Second Dean of the Great Ming Academy, once the Great Qin Dynasty knew the secrets in Wang Chenghai's mind, it would definitely cause a fatal blow to the Great Ming Dynasty.
The butler said to Wang Chenghai, "Lord Wang, please come with me."
Wang Chenghai dispersed his divine sense and scanned around his residence.
After confirming that no one was monitoring him, Wang Chenghai said, "Okay."
In this way, Wang Chenghai and the butler left the Great Ming Academy one after another.
Hiding in the dark, He Yan watched the two leave, his eyes couldn't stop releasing murderous intent, staring at the Li family's direction and said:
"Li Yuan, ah, Li Yuan. His Majesty has treated you well for so many years, why would you do such a stupid thing."
"I was still wondering who had defected to the Great Qin Dynasty, but I didn't expect it to be your Li family! Since your Li family is biting the hand that feeds you, be prepared to bear the consequences."
Li Yuan's appearance appeared in Qin Buyi's mind.
He didn't have much contact with Li Yuan, but Qin Buyi had a good impression of him.
This person was quite humorous in speaking and chatting, and often made everyone laugh.
What Qin Buyi remembered most was the quarrel between him and Wang Tian, the head of the Wang family...
Qin Buyi also knew a little about the entire Li family.
The Li family has existed since the establishment of the Great Ming Dynasty.
After so many years, it has long been a behemoth in the Great Ming Dynasty.
The Li family's influence is huge throughout the Great Ming Dynasty.
To a certain extent, it can even influence the appointment of a city lord, which is enough to prove how much Ying Gan trusts them.
When Qin Buyi first arrived, a small Tang family branch caused him a lot of trouble.
The Tang family in the Great Ming Imperial City is as different from the Li family as an infant is from an adult.
Such a behemoth family has now turned against them.
If it weren't for the coincidence of Wang Chenghai's defection this time, it is unknown how long such a behemoth family would have hidden.
If the Li family were to do something when the Great Ming Dynasty and the Great Qin Dynasty fully start the war...
The consequences are simply unimaginable.
