Chapter 48: The Li Family in Huainan
The news that the county lord of Yunxin had arrested a group of Diao slaves quickly spread in the Huai River area, and it could not be said that it was not shocking.
You must know that this Yunxin County Lord bears the title of the first beauty in the capital, and everyone thinks that she must be a gentle and virtuous woman with a degree of advance and retreat.
But as soon as the news spread, everyone seemed to understand in hindsight that this Yunxin County Lord turned out to be a spicy beauty, and it was not easy to mess with.
Originally, there were many people who held a glimpse of the beauty, and they all shrunk themselves, secretly wondering if there was such a life.
In Huainan, a man in black was taking advantage of the night to flash into the mansion, and then familiarly groped into a study and entered.
The house was dark and unlit.
"How? How's the people? A deep voice came, making the man in black feel excited.
"Back to the master, his subordinates are useless, I didn't see Bai Shu, I don't know if he lives or dies!" , The man in black was already in a cold sweat behind him, he knew that he didn't do this errand well, but he also underestimated the other party. I only felt that the heavy aura of his master was coming in waves, and when he resigned himself to his fate, he felt that he was dead, and he heard a voice that calmed down.
"Go and get twenty lashes yourself, and if you don't miss anything this time, I'll spare your life. There's another time, huh! You don't have to come back either! Although the anger was collected, the murderous aura could still be vaguely perceived.
The man in black lowered his head, "Subordinates receive punishment!" Please also ask the master to give medicine! The subordinates will definitely go again, and they will definitely ...... the white tree."
"Just watch! This. I'm anxious too! Hum! They are all on my territory, can they escape my eyes? Go down, as long as you work hard. There will be no shortage of medicines! ”
"Thank you, master! Subordinates retire! The man in black didn't care about the soaked clothes behind him, and quickly left.
After the man in black left, the lamp was lit in the room, and a yellow figure came out of the dark corner, "Why be angry? I've endured it for so many years, and I still care about this? ”
"Humph! Originally, I had let that dog dove occupy the magpie's nest for so many years, and I had a breath. Now you dare to put your hand on my territory! I let him watch, and this time, he regretted it or not! ”。 After speaking, he slapped his palm on the table, and then got up and left.
Before he left, the fine rosewood table split in two.
"Alas! It's just a violent temper, but he can endure it for so many years. It's not easy! ”。 The lights were blown out, and the Yellow Shadow Man walked out.
All that was left in the room was a desk split in two and a curling cigarette.
Entering Huainan, the scenery on both sides of the strait began to look better and better, which is enough to see the richness of this area.
Ke Xiyuan caught the gang of house slaves in Xing'an Town, so he was not in a hurry and began to rub off.
"What's the catch?" , Ke Xiyuan helped Zhou Chenyu comb his hair and tie his hair skillfully. She didn't expect it herself. One day I will help a man tie his hair.
"I went all the way to every government office and found nothing." Zhou Chenyu and Ruian both worked well, and quietly "greeted" the government officials who came all the way, but they didn't find anything.
"Didn't find it?" , Ke Xiyuan stared for a moment, and then knew why Zhou Chenyu was unhappy.
"When the water is clear, there are no fish, it seems that they are all colluding with each other, and they are not afraid of what we will find out. From this point of view, the officials in this area of the Huai River are quite in the same spirit! Ke Xiyuan didn't expect that the officials in this area were twisted into a rope, and it is estimated that because the emperor is far away, they will be able to leap into the sea.
"You don't know, there were once several famous families in this Huaihe area, many of whom had important ministers or court concubines. The most famous is the Huainan Li family, because the biological mother of today's saint is Miss Li. Later, the Queen Mother died, and the Li family slowly retired from the court and settled in this former residence in Huainan. Zhou Chenyu looked at his hair, grabbed Ke Xiyuan's hand by the way, took her into his arms, and continued to talk carefully.
In other words, after the Li family retired, they opened a private school and built a big road in Huainan, which actually cultivated many talents for the imperial court.
It is worth mentioning that there was a young lady of the Li family who wanted to be sent to the palace, and she didn't want to lose her life, so she disappeared on the way. Emperor Longqing respected his mother's relatives and friends, so he took care of them a lot, and appeased and knighted them.
Therefore, this Huainan Li Jiakang Guogong Mansion is the Huainan standard "soil emperor".
In the years since Emperor Longqing ascended the throne, the Li family has taken deep roots in Huainan. It can be said that half of the officials in the Huainan area now have passed through the Kangguo Mansion. Although the Li family has left the capital, they are the absolute overlord in this Huainan.
This week, Chenyu didn't find out anything at all, but there was a person like Xiaosheng who was saved by them, and it was easy to think that it was not so simple in this.
Ke Xiyuan listened to the twists and turns in it, and nodded understandingly, "That means that in fact, you came here to check the Holy Mother's family?" ”
Zhou Chenyu nodded, "I won't tell you, the Holy Lord has been on the throne for many years, and he has two heart problems. One is the puppet emperor of Xuzhou, and the other is the Li family of Huainan. One is a cousin, the other is a maternal grandfather, and it is really ...... I've actually been here many times before, but every time I haven't found anything substantial, and all I have captured are shrimp soldiers and crab generals, which has nothing to do with the Li family at all. In addition, the situation in Xuzhou was more urgent at that time, so the saint asked me to go to Xuzhou......"
Ke Xiyuan didn't expect that it was not the first time that Zhou Chenyu had come here. It's no wonder that he and Ryan are so familiar with this side and cooperate very well.
Huainan Li family? Ke Xiyuan narrowed her eyes, and suddenly her eyes froze, "Then among these people I arrested, do you say there are any people from the Li family?" ”
"It's hard to tell. Now the person in charge of the Li family is the holy uncle, who lives in a simple place, and few people have seen him. On weekdays, Huainan people like to call him a Li Dashan person. He gave porridge and rice on the fifteenth day of every lunar month, and distributed copper coins every time he was a saint, and sent a letter to the palace every month to be handed over to the saint. By the way, the Miss Li family who died halfway through is his daughter-in-law. Zhou Chenyu has been in the Dark Guard for many years, and he has a lot of information.
"Then I don't understand, why would the saint be suspicious of such a foreigner?" , Ke Xiyuan didn't understand, was Emperor Longqing too careful?
"You don't know, when the Queen Mother died, she took the hand of the saint and asked the saint to be careful of the Li family. After saying this, the Queen Mother closed her eyes. Zhou Chenyu still learned from the prince's mouth all these years. And how the prince knew in the first place, this is unknown.
Ke Xiyuan's eyes widened, and he made it for a long time, this time, he was going to the emperor's uncle!
Realizing this fact, Ke Xiyuan only felt as if he had been driven to a Longtan tiger's den by Emperor Longqing.
Clenched his fists, thinking of Emperor Longqing's meaningful smiles, his heart sank and sank violently. (To be continued......)
