rown Prince sought to seize power, which meant wresting it from the Chief Minister's grasp. But after decades of painstaking effort, how could the Chief Minister possibly relinquish his power so easil...Chapter 490: Intelligence

"This king uses people, always generously, but also distinguishes between those who are usable and those who are not."

"How to divide"

It all depends on whether you can get things done.

Li Yinhu slapped his hand against the armrest and said in a deep voice, "This matter is very dangerous, and you can't do it under the banner of the Prince's Mansion. Being killed on the spot is also possible."

"But wealth and honor come with great risk. This world is difficult; if you want to live like a superior person, you naturally have to take risks."

"Having said that, Li Yinhu waved his hand and said, “Bring it up.”

Immediately, servants arrived carrying two large trays of silver. At a rough glance, there were hundreds of taels in total, enough for everyone to receive dozens of taels.

Many people's eyes turned greedy at the sight of this silver.

No matter how much we talk, nothing beats the direct and exciting feeling of having real gold and silver.

"Each person gets fifty taels, this is for your resettlement and hard work."

Li Yinhu looked at the people below, unable to help himself but reach for the silver, a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and said: "It's done, there is still a heavy reward."

Xu Wei took his own fifty taels of silver and, leading the way, cupped his hands in a fist and said loudly, "We will certainly die for the prince!"

Others, carrying silver and in high spirits, joined in the chanting.

"I shall wait, and die for the King!"

"Great!"

Li Yinhu let out a light exclamation and looked towards Xu Wei, the leader, his eyes filled with a hint of admiration.

This Xu Wei is quite good, he's quick-witted and knows how to please his master by saying the right things in the right situations.

"What I want you to do is break into the prison, and rob the Ministry of Justice's jail!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was dumbfounded.

Only Xu Wei's heart beat faster.

He knew that the prince had kept him in the manor, lying low until now, and his time had finally come.

But on his face, he also made an expression of confusion and astonishment.

Li Yinhu calmly said, “In the Ministry of Punishment's prison, there are a group of members from the White Lotus Sect. Your task is to go and release them. Just carry out a jailbreak. Where they go after they come out, you don't need to worry about it. After completing the task, everyone disperse and wait for the heat to die down before coming back.”

Li Yinhu didn't explain too much. His eyes were cold as he said, "As I just said, this matter is risky. Even if you die during the mission, I won't be able to help you. But I promise you, for your wives, children and elders, I will give enough compensation. And it will be done, with money, women, and power, I will give you all!"

"Opportunity is right here in front of you, it all depends on whether you dare to seize it."

After some deliberation, Xu Wei's face displayed a mix of hesitation, struggle, and greed. Then, as if making up his mind, he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, I am willing!"

Once one person took the lead, others followed suit.

"I'm willing too!"

"And me too!"

Li Yinhu laughed heartily and said, "Good, very good. This king was not wrong about you."

"The task is to act at midnight tonight. Now go down, Your Highness has ordered a fine feast to be prepared for you. No wine will be served. When you return, Your Highness will personally host a banquet in your honor."

Xu Wei's face was full of the madness of being intoxicated by power and money, and he shouted loudly: "Your Highness is righteous, we are obliged to do so!"

Li Yinhu burst into laughter, his admiration for Xu Wei reaching new heights.

Half an hour later, a small bottle was thrown out from the wall of the prince's mansion and landed on a vegetable vendor's stall in a narrow alley.

The peddler was taken aback, saw the note in the small bottle, immediately packed up his stall, and got up and disappeared into the alley without looking back.without making a sound. He just said to Li Chen: "Your Highness, you have vented your anger, so please spare me. You don't like seeing me. I will go back and tell my father, and I will leave for Jinli...
