After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.

Chapter 669 Isn't it just being surrounded on all four sides?

"Stop talking nonsense."

Ye Sanqing was speechless. "How does my relationship with you affect this matter? Do you think I have to befriend you for you to cooperate with me? Do you think you're playing some game where you have to build relationships to expand your power?"

I really want to ask him, would you say something like that if it were a man on the other end?

But the answer to this question is obvious without even asking.

If Lu Mingye can do it, Lu Wangshen will only go even further.

"That's not what I meant. I meant that with this identity, I can avoid some trouble."

Lu Wangshen zoomed out a bit, trying to convey that he was serious and had no ambiguous thoughts.

"You said it yourself, that's your problem, not mine."

Ye Sanqing said without any change in expression, "Don't tell me you can't even handle this little problem, or I'll seriously doubt your abilities."

Besides, it's hard not to suspect that this is some kind of method he's using against Lu Mingye.

You have to be careful when talking to Lu Wangshen. He may be talking about one thing on the surface, but there may be eight hundred things hidden in the conversation. If you are not careful and your attitude softens, that will be real trouble.

“…You really aren’t willing to compromise at all.” Lu Wangshen shook his head, not saying much more about the matter. “Well, it’s not that I can’t solve it, but I need some official help.”

"You said."

His answer was basically within Ye Sanqing's expectations.

First of all, he's the kind of person who takes advantage of every opportunity; even when he's in a disadvantageous position, he'll still try his best to gain benefits when negotiating a deal.

Besides, if Lu Wangshen had the ability to do this so easily, Ye Sanqing had no doubt that he wouldn't have kept Master Ying alive until now.

After all, he already owned a casino business, so acquiring it would only benefit him.

The reason he didn't do it before was either because maintaining the status quo was more profitable, or because he couldn't do it.

Or rather, it cannot be done by one person alone.

"You mean, you're going to send in the army?"

Lu Wangshen explained for a while, the gist of which was that killing the target was simpler, but capturing the target alive was more difficult.

Master Ying was very good at hiding; he hid deep in the mountains of Southeast Asia...

Of course, the simplest method is to bombard the ground with artillery fire, but that would be starting a war.

This is unreasonable and cannot be implemented.

Furthermore, if the goal is to bring the other party to legal punishment, then one cannot simply bombard them without any regard for the consequences.

Furthermore, there might be civilians nearby, and collateral damage cannot be ignored.

Therefore, Lu Wangshen proposed two plans. One was to spread false information, saying that some spies were fleeing to this area, and to pretend to search for them, while also raiding Ying Jiuye's hideout.

This kind of thing definitely needs official endorsement.

Moreover, it will involve a lot of mobilization, and the downside is that if there are no gains, the scene will be rather ugly.

The second is fishing in the opposite direction.

Master Ying does not completely disappear; he occasionally appears at some underground gatherings.

This is usually in North America or Europe.

Taking revenge at this time is certainly an option, but official personnel cannot be involved, as this would be completely against the rules of the underworld.

Unless one is completely free from any shady business activities, then this is the only way to do it.

Moreover, it's not to say there won't be any future troubles. If these people discover his change of stance, his former partners may turn against him and betray him.

Because that means it cannot be trusted.

Ye Sanqing nodded, "So the so-called underworld has a set of unspoken rules, and the trouble you mentioned refers to these?"

"Yes, I don't want to be hunted down. If I offended him directly, that would be one thing..." Lu Wangshen looked at the sky.

"You make it sound like a real pity. I understand. I'll go and offend him for you then."

Ye Sanqing nodded as if he had just realized something.

"Isn't your method a bit too heretical? You can't drag me into this like this."

Lu Wangshen said, "In short, this is my method and my suggestion. You can choose whichever one you want. But you will be responsible for the other supporting aspects."

"Is that even a question? Of course it's the latter. But let me make one thing clear to you: it's because I'm the one who has a grudge against him."

"I understand. You mean if the one who directly became your enemy is Xiao Sheng, then it's the former, right? Heh, the privileged class!"

"Don't act like you're some kind of working-class person, it's none of your business to criticize."

Ye Sanqing thought for a moment and then said, "Since he has been a menace for so many years and has not been taken down, that means he has actually been hovering on the edge all along."

"Yes, there's no direct evidence of what he did. Didn't you raid two of his locations before? What did those people say about it? Even if there were witnesses, the physical evidence isn't sufficient, is it?"

Lu Wangshen clearly knew very well how to clear himself in this situation, and he said in a very confident tone.

"I'm asking you, isn't Lu Mingye too busy taking care of himself?"

Ye Sanqing suddenly changed the subject, talking about something completely unrelated to the present.

A moment of shock flashed in Lu Wangshen's eyes. "I don't know. I didn't contact him."

"You should know that lying to me won't work."

“I…” Lu Wangshen paused for a few seconds before saying, “To be honest, I don’t know. All I can do is speculate, but since you’ve said that, I think you must think the same way I do.”

"Did you contact him after the opening ceremony? Seriously."

Generally speaking, unless he deliberately stirs up trouble, Ye Sanqing rarely takes the initiative to contact these people.

Lu Mingye seems to have been quiet since then...

It would be too strange if something had only happened to the Lu family; Lu Mingye should have come to her for help before Lu Wangshen.

Although the opening ceremony hasn't been that long ago, it contradicts his previous behavior and logic.

However, if he can handle it on his own, that would be different, but in that case he would at least keep in touch with Lu Wangshen.

Come to think of it, Fu Sizhou's attitude was also somewhat puzzling when I spoke with him last time...

In other words, Ye Sanqing is not entirely sure whether this is the power of the world or something else.

"They contacted me once or twice, but not since I came here."

Lu Wangshen was more frank, "After all, it's not very convenient."

"You seem to be in a pretty convenient position right now."

"It's almost 24 hours now, so I have to make it convenient for myself."

"So you probably know what it is, right? And the fact that you're suggesting to me at this time that we take him down means he's in a position where he's easily taken down."

"What else could it be but being surrounded by enemies? But right now, my priority is dealing with Lu Wangqian. If I can bring him down, great; if not, it doesn't matter."

Lu Wangshen said with great surprise, "I thought you wouldn't care, but I didn't expect... so you still care about him more than you care about me?"
