Wu Xiugu reached out and took the letter, and saw that the word top secret was written on the envelope, and the seal was sealed with fire paint, but it had been opened. Wu Xiugu pinched the envelope with her hand, felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly opened the seal and looked inside, but there was nothing in the envelope, it was empty.

Wu Xiugu hurriedly lit up the envelope to Wu Yong and asked: Where is the letter inside?

Seeing that it was empty, Wu Yong's face changed and said: I don't know.

The ninth sister asked for the envelope from Wu Xiugu's hand and looked inside, and then asked Wu Yong with a heavy face: Why is the letter gone, is it a ghost that you did?

Hearing this, Wu Yong's body trembled violently in fright, and he hurriedly waved his hand: How dare the little one make a ghost, the little one has been staying in the secret house outside the city to guard General Chai these days, and he has never come back.

After thinking about it for a while, Wu Xiugu felt that this matter was serious, so she said: The letter is gone, Long Haitao is dead, this matter is not simple.

After that, he instructed the ninth sister: Ninth sister, you go to the criminal department to report what happened here to the adults.

Hearing this, the ninth sister nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, I'll go back and report to the master immediately."

With that, he turned and ran out.

Xu Tinghua shouted: You can't beat me, I am a first-class official of the imperial court, and I can't be punished if I have an official position.

How could Li Yinglong believe that evil, and smiled when he heard this: Yes, you are an official of the first grade, according to the rules of the court, you cannot be beaten until your official position is removed by the emperor. However, that is for other officials, it does not work for me, who am I? Wupin Dazhi County, oh, no, now I should be a scholar of Wenyuange University of Wupin and Wupin.

So, other officials can't beat you, but I can beat you, why? Because I am a tasteless official, that is to say, my officials are more than yours, and it is natural for a big official to beat a small official, just like a father beating his son, therefore, I can not only beat you, but also fight for nothing, and if you don't fight for nothing, you won't fight for nothing.

By the way, the people still have a sentence, how do you say that sentence? Oh, I remember, yes, the prince's crime is the same as the common people's crime, and you can fight it as you want.

After that, he waved his hand and ordered: Come on, drag me down and beat me hard.

Hearing this, the officials standing on both sides of the hall hesitated and did not act, after all, this Xu Tinghua is the secretary of the Criminal Department, and the first-class member of the dynasty, although he was beaten according to Li Yinglong's order, but that was also a great responsibility, and if he didn't do it, he would be sentenced to a thousand miles of exile to do hard labor.

But Brother Ning and Fat Ball don't care about those, they don't have any concept of a first-class member in their heads, they only recognize Li Yinglong, and they only think that Li Yinglong is an official, and no one else is easy to use, not even the emperor.

Therefore, at the moment when Li Yinglong gave the order, the two rushed up at once, and then one grabbed one of his arms and dragged him away.

Seeing this, Wang Qin was anxious, and hurriedly said to Kou Zhun: Kou Xiang, the court officials cannot be punished without the emperor's holy decree, why don't you stop Lord Li.

Hearing this, Kou Xiangtou shook his head: I don't want to find a beating, Master Li has the jade plate of the prison country given by the Queen Mother in his hand, and he doesn't need to report any killing, let alone beating people.

After that, he seemed to think of something and said: By the way, why don't you stop it, but let me stop it, what kind of heart do you have, do you want to let my old man go and beat him.

Hearing this, Wang Qin hurriedly waved his hand and said: No, no, Kou Xiang didn't misunderstand, didn't I have a holiday with Master Li, wouldn't it be added to the fire if I went to stop it.

Kou Xiangdao: Then don't care, who told Lord Xu to get a fake messenger, a fake letter to deceive people, it's okay to be beaten and sober.

When the two were talking, Brother Ning and Fat Ball had already started to beat them, making Xu Tinghua scream uncontrollably, and the criminal department personnel present

He was stunned.

After the fight, Brother Ning and Fat Ball dragged Xu Tinghua up and threw him on the ground in the lobby.

Li Yinglong looked at Xu Tinghua, who was lying on the ground, and asked with a grin: Lord Xu, how do you feel?

Xu Tinghua said angrily: I don't finish this matter with you, tomorrow morning, I will ask the emperor to lynch you indiscriminately and beat the officials of the court.

Hearing this, Li Yinglong nodded and said: Yes, this is your right.

After that, I seemed to think of something again, and patted my head: Ah, I remembered something, no, it should be a case.

Then, he got up from his seat and walked out to squat down in front of Xu Tinghua, then stretched out his hand and took out a piece of paper from his arms to write on it, opened it and said to Xu Tinghua: Lord Xu, do you know what this is? This is the confession of Zhao Xiaowangye, the son of the king of Luoyang, according to Zhao Xiaowangye's confession, Lord Xu is his accomplice in building an underground money black workshop and privately minting counterfeit coins, do you know what kind of crime this is? The sin of destroying the door, that is, you have to be beheaded, and all the people in your family are to be beheaded.

Hearing this, Xu Tinghua was so shocked that his eyes were about to bulge out, and he hurriedly shouted loudly: No, I'm not from his group, and I don't know anything about him.

Li Yinglong grinned, put his mouth to his ear and whispered: Lord Xu, according to the logic of your trial of the case, that is, there is no excuse for the crime you want to add, right? Your criminal department has one hundred and eight kinds of torture instruments, and I will greet you one by one, and I am afraid that you will not admit it. "Haha", when the time comes, I have made a great contribution, you have become a sinner, so it's fun. However, I can't complain about it, my biggest advantage is that I am good at learning, and I learned from you just now, and I will learn.

Hearing this, Xu Tinghua shouted in horror: Help! Help me!

Kou Xiang and Wang Qin, who were talking, were startled and hurriedly turned their heads to look this way.

Kou Xiang asked strangely: Lord Li, what did you say to Lord Xu just now, and you actually scared Lord Xu like this?

Li Yinglong said: I just told him that Zhao Xiaowangye's counterfeit coin case involved him, and I was afraid that I would have to deal with him in the future, so he shouted.

Hearing this, Wang Qin said sharply: Lord Li, you intimidate the ministers of the court, I want to join you.

Li Yinglong said: Grandma Ni Ganpi, who intimidated him.

After that, he raised the piece of paper in his hand: Did you see it, the confession signed by Zhao Xiaowangye, Zhao Xiaowangye himself said that Lord Xu was his accomplice, and the mansion just told him the truth and told him about it.

Wang Qindao: Lord Xu is the secretary of the criminal department of the imperial court, he has never left the capital, and he has never had any contact with Zhao Xiaowangye, how can he be his accomplice, this confession is fake.

Hearing this, Li Yinglong pouted: Is it fake, you can ask the master to check the autograph of Zhao Xiaowangye and the handprint he pressed. However, I persuaded the prime minister not to bother with it, because it was all true, but I didn't believe much in what Zhao Xiaowang confessed, so this confession has not been taken out by the government.

But just now, when Lord Xu tried Lord Shi's so-called treason case, it turned out that the evidence can be faked, if you don't admit it, won't you admit it after a torture, not to mention that the evidence in my hand is still true, more than 100 kinds of torture tools can be recognized as soon as you say hello, it turns out that it is so easy to make meritorious service.

After that, he paused for a moment, and then raised his hand and patted his head and said: This mansion will go back and look for it, and see if I can find another confession of Zhao Xiaowangye's confession that Wang Xiang is an accomplice.

Hearing this, Wang Qin's face turned green with anger, and he yelled angrily: It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, I don't have the time to mess around with you here, say goodbye.

With that, he pulled his legs and walked outside, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Li Yinglong shouted at his back: Wang Xiang is good, don't send it.

Hearing this, everyone burst out laughing, and Shi Yao laughed the loudest.

Li Yinglong seemed to notice her, turned his head and glared at her, and suddenly said: Hey, haven't I already acquitted your father, why don't you take your father home, it's fun here, don't you, do you want me to send your father back to the prison and squat for a few days.

Hearing this, Shi Yao was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his hand and shouted: Don't, don't, let's go, let's go.

After that, she pulled her father and her mother and said hurriedly: Father, mother, go quickly, my master will not be able to leave if he hangs up.

But Shi Haibo didn't leave immediately, hesitated for a moment and asked: Can I really go home ------ I?

Hearing this, Kou Xiang waved his hand to him: Master Shi, go back quickly, Governor Li has the right to cut first and then play, and what he judges is what it is, and it will not be changed.

Shi Haibo was excited: Thank you, Master Li! Thank you Kou Xiang!

After that, he pulled Shi Yao and Mrs. Shi and walked out.

As soon as the three of them walked for a while, the ninth sister hurriedly ran in from outside, and then reported to Li Yinglong Shili: Master, Long Haitao, the secretary of the military department, is dead.

Hearing this, Li Yinglong was shocked and asked: Dead, how did you die?

The ninth sister said: It was hanged.

After that, he reached out and took out the envelope from his arms and handed it to Li Yinglong: Also, we only found this thing in Long Haitao's secret wallcabinet.

Li Yinglong took it and looked at it, and General Chai Kang, who was on the side, was pleasantly surprised: This is the envelope of the secret letter.

Jiu Mei said: Only this envelope, the letter inside is gone.

Li Yinglong pinched open the envelope and looked inside, sure enough, it was empty, and couldn't help but ask strangely: How could it be empty, and the letter inside?

Kou Xiang asked the ninth sister on the side: Ninth sister, did you take this secret letter directly from the wall cabinet, or did you take it out and transfer it through someone else?

The ninth sister said busily: It was taken out directly from the wall cabinet.

Hearing this, after thinking for a while, Kou Xiang said again: In other words, this secret letter was lost in Long Haitao's hands, and Long Haitao died again, how could this matter be so coincidental?

Hearing this, Li Yinglong waved his hand very simply: Don't guess, let's take a look.

After that, he walked outside first.

Half an hour later, Li Yinglong, Kou Xiang, Chai Kang, Eighth Sister, Brother Ning, and Fat Ball came to Long Haitao's mansion, and then walked into Long Haitao's mansion one after another and came to his study.

Wu Xiugu, who was staying in the study, hurriedly walked over and saluted Li Yinglong: "My lord is here?"

Li Yinglong nodded, walked to Long Haitao's corpse and squatted down, and then looked at Long Haitao's neck with his eyes, and saw that there was an obvious and clear strangulation mark on his neck.

After reading it, he said: It looks like he died by suicide.

As soon as his words fell, he heard someone behind him scolding: Little bastard, don't know how to pretend to understand nonsense.

Hearing this, Li Yinglong turned around and saw that it was Heitoutuo standing behind him, and he didn't know when he came in.

Li Yinglong glared at him, and then said: "Old bastard, what are you doing here?"

Heitou Tuo also glared at him: You think I am willing to come, I am not here to find your little bastard, yesterday you told me that you want me to transfer my people to you secretly into the Kaifeng Mansion, I have transferred people to you, but you are gone, my old man ran to several places, and finally caught up with you in this place, I didn't expect you to come here, with green onions in your nose and pretending to be an elephant.
