Chapter 216: Immortal Water

"Later, my father really had no choice, so he demoted her husband ......"

Hearing Li Qing say this, Li Ke and Yurou were both shocked, and Bai Yurou said, "When did it happen?!" Why don't I know?! Li Qing muttered: "I secretly asked people to do this, not like you are worried about your husband!" So I didn't tell you, if the eldest sister admits it, I'm afraid that the eldest sister will have a disaster! There can only be one person to bear it, and although I am a princess, there is no reason to kill the officials of the court indiscriminately without permission! In order to give an explanation to the ministers, it is impossible for me to punish the crime, so I can only demote my husband! ”

"Holy! It turns out that Lao Tzu was degraded?! It seems that this prefect also knows?! It's a sentence of Master Li, disgusting! Li Ke angrily spat out fragrant lips directly, and finally asked: "How many officials am I now?!" ”

Li Qing muttered, "Uh...... Because you are a concubine, the Confucians admonished that the concubine itself is already noble, and you should not let it be promoted, so ...... You're no longer an official! It's just a colt......"

"Day! Lao Tzu claims to be his official every day, but he doesn't know that he is no longer in office!! ! Lose face! After Li Ke finished scolding, he said: "Even if I don't have a level, but Lao Tzu is still a colt?!" Won't they all ride on Lao Tzu's head?! ”

Li Qing said: "That's not going to happen, it's just that the colt itself doesn't have any rights, so ...... Husband, you can only bully some small officials, and you are also an official without a backstage! This prefect knew at a glance that he had a backstage, otherwise, I wouldn't dare to talk to you like this, you must know that there is a princess like me behind my husband! ”

"This group of Confucians is really idle eggs, what do you have to do to pick Lao Tzu?! Lao Tzu has done so many good things without mentioning it, I have to think about not letting Lao Tzu live a good life......" Li Ke said depressedly, Bai Yurou said: "Husband! Could it be someone you offended in Chang'an?! ”

"If you want to offend, there is only one Hou Junji! But although I have some discord with him, I have definitely not risen to the point where he will send someone to kill me! Li Ke shook his head and said, he thought that Hou Junji would not do this, after all, this is too stupid!

But who could he be?! Li Ke patted his head, he really couldn't figure out who couldn't get along with him!

In the afternoon, Li Ke summoned the guards and ordered: "Everyone listen! Now the Li Mansion has been targeted by a group of killers, and I have been assassinated by assassins and injured! This group of people will inevitably assassinate the Li Mansion, which is not only my Li family's home, but also your home! So! We want to protect the Li Mansion and protect our home! Ladies and gentlemen! Lee's House! Please! ”

Everyone: "Yes! The subordinates must do their best to protect the Li Mansion from any harm! ”

Li Ke said loudly again: "Okay! After this incident has passed, the ten taels of silver for each guard plus all the food and drink of your family in Chang'an will be borne by me, Li Ke!! ”

"Thank you, sir! Mighty! The sound of the crowd shook the sky, and Li Ke clapped his hands and signaled them to calm down first! Everyone also understood in an instant, and hurriedly stopped shouting!

Li Ke said again: "Now, this official announces! Everyone is divided into three teams, and one team comes out to protect the three ladies and their families! The remaining two teams and one team follow me to find the Assassin I, and find the Assassin on my own! When the night falls, gather here! ”

Everyone: "Yes! Subordinates understand! ”

"Good! The second team changed all their clothes and changed them into ordinary people's clothes! After Li Ke finished speaking, everyone went back to the room and changed into their clothes! Then, Li Ke took everyone out of the house!

Although Lihua and the other three girls were very worried, they couldn't stop Li Ke, so they could only pray in their hearts that he was okay! Out of the house, Li Ke took everyone to take a casual stroll first! It didn't take long for the guards who had changed into ordinary people's clothes to blend into the people of Luoyang!

Li Ke then deliberately separated the guards around him, leaving only five people! "Master Li! The old man heard that your shop was burned down by thieves, and the adults were injured?! At this time, an old man suddenly came to Li Ke's side and muttered, Li Ke shook it and said, "There is no such thing!" You see! I'm not good! ”

The old man said, "Oh! Master Li must not be careful...... "After finishing speaking, he retired!" General Huang said, "My lord! I'm afraid that this assassin has already gotten the news, and now they will definitely not come out! ”

Li Ke said: "Yes! Reasonable! Order all the guards to collect information and report any suspicious person or clue as soon as they find it! 100 taels of silver! General Huang was about to go down and order his subordinates, when Li Ke suddenly said, "That's right! Where is the man who came to report that he was walking in the water?! ”

"I'll ask my subordinates ......" After General Huang finished speaking, he found the guards who were present that night and said, "Where is the man who came to report that night that clothes came to the workshop to walk the water?!" ”

The guard said, "Lord Qiyu! The man who had come to tell the news had ...... It's dead! ”

"What?! He's dead?! Li Ke was taken aback, he didn't expect that the only clue would be broken like this! Then he asked, "Tell me clearly, what happened?!" ”

The guard said: "I also just received the notice, but this is an insignificant person, so I didn't specifically inform the adult......" General Huang said angrily: "Bastard! That strong man who looks like a farmer is the key to this matter, how can it not matter?! ”

In the face of General Huang's reprimand, the guards didn't dare to find other excuses but to excuse themselves! Li Ke didn't blame him when he saw this situation, after all, this farmer would definitely not have a good result if he knew the facts of the case!

"Get up! Let's look for evidence! After General Huang finished speaking to the guards, he muttered again: "It seems that this farmer is not their man, otherwise he would not have died!" ”

"Hmm!"

Li Ke agreed, and said: "We're just making noise now, and they'll make a move at night!" General Huang said suspiciously: "Why?!" Now is the moment of truth, and they should not stop for the time being...... Profound! The last general understands! ”

"Huh! What do you understand?! Li Ke asked with a smile, and General Huang said, "Judging from the performance of the assassins that night, this group of assassins swore to kill the adults on the spot!" This means that they have been instructed to kill the adults as soon as possible! ”

Li Ke nodded and said, "Not bad!" You're right, they have to kill Lao Tzu within a certain amount of time! So! Even if it's not today, it's going to be in a few days! ”

Night soon came, and Li Ke took General Huang and four guards to walk on the dim path! They have been visiting and staying for a long time, teahouses, taverns, and even Baihuayuan! In order to let them know that they have come out, although it is clear that there is a conspiracy to do so, Li Ke bets that they will go in knowing that it is a trap!

This night, Li Ke and General Huang and other guards, as well as the guards in the shadows, did not wait for the person who should have appeared, but waited for a large group of mosquitoes to eat to their heart's content!

Li Ke sat under the tree, smoking a cigarette and waiting boredly! The same is true of General Huang on the side, Li Ke perfectly taught General Huang the correct way to smoke......

"My lord! How can the last general be a little dizzy?! General Huang took a puff of his cigarette and muttered, and Li Ke said casually: "It's like this for the first time!" Li Ke inadvertently saw the cigarette butt on the ground, and said in confusion: "How many cigarettes have you smoked this time?!" ”

"Hmm...... Almost six, right?! General Huang said uncertainly, and Li Ke immediately said speechlessly: "You are too hard to smoke so much!" After Li Ke finished speaking, General Huang hurriedly extinguished the cigarette, then threw it on the ground, and then said: "My lord! Looks like they're not going to come tonight! ”

Li Ke stood up and said, "Inform them to close the team, go back to have supper and sleep well!" General Huang nodded, then blew two whistles, and said to Li Ke: "Let's go!" My lord! ”

All the way back to Li's Mansion, the whole journey was safe and smooth, Lihua and the others saw Li Ke coming back, and hurriedly asked, "Husband?!" You're all right?! "Husband, are you alright?!" "Husband, does your wound still hurt?!"

"It's okay! I didn't wait for anything tonight, but I was bullied by mosquitoes...... Hiss~" Li Ke reached out and scratched his calf as he spoke, saying, "It's too itchy~" As he spoke, Li Ke thought of the flower water stored in the bracelet!

Li Ke turned back to General Huang and said, "General Huang! Let the guy give the big guy a meal on the hour! General Huang nodded and went to order! Li Ke turned around and said, "Let's go!" Hurry back to the room, it's itching to death...... Wow~hiss~"

As soon as he arrived in the house, Li Ke sat on the bed, and in an instant, there was an extra bottle of flower water in his hand! Then he opened the lid and sprayed a few times at the little red cell on his leg, "~huh~huh......

Suddenly, the room was filled with the smell of honeysuckle, and the third girl frowned and asked, "What is this?!" The smell is so strong?! Li Ke said without raising his head: "Fairy water~"

"Fairy water?! What is this?! I've never heard of it! The three girls glanced at each other, and saw a look of doubt in each other's eyes!

"Peaches! Come here! ”

Suddenly, Li Ke said to the peach beside Li Qing, there is no one in Li Ke's house, only the maid of the Li Mansion! So these maids must take care of every lady, it's just that the maids have different feelings about the lady, and Peaches prefers the third lady Bai Yurou!

"Yes! My lord! Peaches came over, and Li Ke handed the bottle in his hand to Peaches and taught her how to use it! He asked him to spray the guards and said, "Remember! Only spray the area bitten by mosquitoes, and don't spray the rest of the place! And don't breathe ...... fire."
