Chapter 1167: Li Ru is assassinated!
Jiangbei, Yuzhou!
Li Zheng told Li Ru about the experience of the past three years with emotion, and after a long time, he said softly: "Li Gong suffered, why didn't he show the Ming court when he found the traces of the Shura Sect?" ”
Li Zheng's eyes showed a hint of helplessness: "I have no evidence in my hands, and the people of the Shura Sect are quite hidden, even if I tell the imperial court, it doesn't make much sense!" ”
A hint of darkness flashed in Li Ru's eyes: "However, since we have fished out their traces this time, we will definitely not let them get out again!" ”
After finishing speaking, he said in a low voice: "Immediately collect clues and conduct a special investigation on the matter of the Shura Sect, this matter must be kept absolutely confidential, just record it in Baiyiwei, and shield it from the Criminal Department and Dali Temple!" ”
"No!"
Darkly, a figure strode away, a glimmer of light flashed in Li Zheng's eyes, he looked at Li Ru, and said softly: "Wen You, I heard that there is another movement on the western border?" ”
Li Ru bowed slightly, and said without concealment: "The 300,000 troops of Great Qin are on the border and confronting our army, and now Your Majesty is ready to drive the expedition in person!" ”
"The Imperial Expedition!"
A trace of worry flashed in Li Zheng's eyes: "Your Majesty has only been on the throne for three years now, has the situation been stable?" ”
Li Ru seemed to see his worries, and said softly: "Gong Li, don't worry, since Your Majesty is preparing to drive the expedition in person, he has naturally made a complete plan!" ”
"That's it!"
Li Ru was about to continue speaking, but the door in the courtyard was suddenly pushed open, and a figure strode in: "Master Li!" ”
"Here it is!"
Li Zheng responded with a smile and looked at the man who was striding over, "Why did you have time to come to the old man's house today?" ”
"Hey, hey!" The man was about to speak, when he saw a figure sitting opposite Li Zheng, and said in surprise: "Yo, there is a guest at home?" ”
"Hmm!"
Li Zheng bowed slightly, and the man said: "Master Li, my mother-in-law steamed two steamed buns and sent you a few!" ”
Li Zheng got up with a smile, got up and took out a pot of wine from the house, and handed it over with a smile: "Thank you Mrs. Ling for me!" ”
"Oops! That's unacceptable! ”
The man hurriedly retreated: "I've quit drinking!" ”
As he spoke, he dropped the bun in his hand and strode away directly, Li Zheng smiled wryly, and put the wine jar in his hand on the stone case, "I will run again in a while!" ”
Li Ru bowed slightly: "Li Gongneng can live in seclusion in this countryside, and his life is comfortable, it seems that the task given to me by His Majesty may not be completed!" ”
"Huh?"
Looking at Li Zheng's puzzled gaze, Li Ru said softly: "Your Majesty sent me here this time to take Gong Li back to Beijing!" ”
Li Ru's eyes also flashed a trace of amazement, looking at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, if you say that you are conscientious, Li Zheng, the head of the household department back then, is counted as one!
has been in politics for decades and has made great contributions to Great Xia, and before His Majesty succeeded to the throne, he was also friendly with His Majesty!
The only son also donated his life to go abroad!
It can be said that Duke Li and even the Li family are worthy of Great Xia, but the imperial court is a little sorry for the Li family!
When Li Zheng heard this, he was really stunned, and shook his head with a smile: "In this mountain and wilderness, holding a scroll in his hand, and educating the younger generations, his life is also comfortable!" ”
"Now that the old man has withdrawn from officialdom, even if he returns to Chang'an at this moment, I am afraid that he will be arranged by His Majesty to be in the academy and retire in Chang'an City, it is better to be at ease here, and the fallen leaves can also return to their roots!"
Li Ru sighed lightly, "Since Princess Li has made up her mind, I won't persuade you anymore!" ”
"It's just that if Duke Li encounters anything in the future, he can pass on the letter to the court, His Majesty once said that Duke Li is worthy of heaven and earth, and the court is ashamed of the Li family!"
Li Zheng's eyes moistened instantly, but there was a smile on his face: "Old decay is worthy of your heart, the things that eat the king's fortune and the things that are loyal to the monarch are all things that are within your bounds!" ”
"Now the old man and I are carefree, but my nephew has no choice but to get involved in this matter, and there is nothing else to ask for!"
Li Ru got up slowly and bowed slightly: "If Duke Li is willing to return to Beijing at any time, he will send someone to pick him up at any time!" ”
Li Zheng waved his hand: "The old man is not going anywhere!" "Qiqi Chinese Network
The two walked all the way to the outside of the courtyard, and as soon as they took two steps, they heard a fight, Li Ru frowned slightly, and saw a young man come over, and said to Li Ru: "My lord, there are a few unknown people outside!" ”
A hint of coldness flashed in Li Ru's eyes, and he said lightly: "Take me to see!" ”
After walking out, I saw a few men who had been taken down by Jinyiwei's plainclothes!
"Who are you?"
Those people's eyes fell on Li Ru and Li Zheng, and suddenly showed a sneer, and suddenly burst out, directly flying out the two brocade-clothed guards on their sides, and killing Li Ru directly!
Li Zheng's face suddenly changed, "Be careful! ”
With an exclamation, he pushed Li Ru aside, and he caught up with the two people who rushed up!
"Li Gong!"
Li Ru's eyes were full of surprise, and the plainclothes of the surrounding Jinyi guards also changed their complexions, and they hurriedly rushed towards the two, but it was too late!
One person drew a dagger in his hand and stabbed straight at Li Zheng!
"Poof!"
A blood flower floated out, and Li Ru's eyes were split: "Presumptuous!" ”
"Jinyiwei, take it!"
Li Ru had never been so out of shape, and hurriedly rushed towards Li Zheng: "Li Gong! ”
The people who were watching on the side were also stunned, and when they saw Li Zheng being stabbed, they also rushed up: "Master Li!" ”
"Are you alright?"
"Master Li!"
The men who had just gone to Li Zheng's house to deliver wine were also stunned, and then with a look of anger, they took out a wooden stick with a thick arm from the broken house on the side, and shouted: "Get out of the way!" ”
The surrounding Jinyi guards all changed their faces slightly, and hurriedly dodged to the side!
"Give me death!"
A stick was swung down, the wind was blowing, and it smashed on the back of one person, directly folding into two, the man threw away the stick and smashed it directly at the other person, Jinyiwei hurriedly rushed up and took down the person!
"Click!"
"Click!"
A few crisp sounds in a row directly broke their hands and feet!
That man's strength was not weak, his fists were whistling, and for a while, the assassin was a little overwhelmed!
Li Ru looked at Jinyiwei who was in a daze, and said with a calm face: "What are you still doing in a daze, don't go and invite Lang Zhong!" ”
"No!"
Li Ru's face was unprecedentedly ruthless, and he said in a deep voice: "Pass my order, let Yuzhou Jinyi Wei Qianhu come to see me!" ”
"No!"
"Bring them in and interrogate them on the spot!"
"No!"
A few brocade guards walked towards the corner with two people carrying chickens!
Li Zheng spat out a mouthful of blood and said softly: "Wen is worried! ”
"I don't blame you for this!"
"You help me remove the pen and ink!"
