Chapter II. 202

As soon as Liu Banxian's words fell, this Kun Dao immediately let out a 'poof' 'explosive laughter', and then bent down and covered his stomach and laughed 'hahaha' non-stop; this 'magical' scene made Shen Gui look at the brother on the other side and look at each other, and no one could connect the rough woman in front of him who broke her skills in an instant with the 'Xuanmen Female Crown' who looked unfathomable just now.

"Half-immortal, you are so annoying! When I came here just now, I took a special look at the porter, and I dared to play if you were not at home; This has just bluffed the three of them, and you can ...... Just let my half day go to waste...... Hahaha......"

Liu Banxian threw the three bundled pigeons in his hand to the ground, and then raised his right hand and wiped it on the face of the female Kundao......

"Fish gelatin can't always hang on the face, otherwise it is easy to get sores on the face......"

With a wave of Liu Banxian's big hand, this disguised female Kun Dao finally revealed her true face - the person who came was the eldest lady of the Li family who was sent back to the Great Wilderness City by Shen Gui, Li Le'an.

"Huh? Didn't I ask the brother of the winter solstice to send you back? Bite? Lost? ”

Shen Gui looked at Li Le'an, who had been tearing at the fish gelatin crumbs on his face, and asked in wonder.

"Hmm... Something went wrong...... Well...... Are there any loose-mouthed outsiders in your house now? ”

Li Le'an asked in one sentence, and everyone present looked at the second son of the Yan family.

“…… What am I doing? I've been recuperating here for a long time, and I'm about to become Shen Gui's godbrother-in-law, can I be considered an outsider just by virtue of this relationship? ”

Shen Gui shook his head maliciously, pointed at the angry Yan Qinghong and said:

"No, no, no, you misunderstood, you're not an outsider, you're not a strict mouth."

Half an hour later, Fu Yi took the Prime Minister Li Deng, who looked a little depressed, to the Shen Mansion.

"Daddy!"

When Li Le'an, who was dressed as Kun Dao, saw his father, he didn't care that the room was full of 'idle people', and flew directly into Li Deng's arms; Li Le'an, who was still talking and laughing with everyone just now, laughing and scolding, instantly cried into a tearful man in his father's arms.

Li Deng patted his beloved daughter who was crying bitterly in his arms, and looked at Shen Gui with displeasure:

"Shen Gui, how did you promise the old man in the first place? Could it be that you want to go back on your word and do such untrustworthy and unrighteous repentance of marriage? Although my Li family is placed on the Huayu Continent, it is not a famous family, but it is by no means a ...... for others to be bullied."

"I said Prime Minister Li and Master Li, you should have misunderstood. Le'an's Xuanmen outfit has nothing to do with Shen, and she doesn't know which horn she turned out of...... But there is one sentence that you are really right, your Li family is really not a commodity to be bullied. Once you are ruthless, you can even kill your own people! ”

Shen Gui's tone and demeanor when he replied at this time were unprecedented yin and yang, and Li Deng, who was at the top, was also stunned on the spot, not knowing what kind of madness this kid was smoking.

Recently, Wan Changning, who was recuperating from his injuries in the Prime Minister's Mansion, has been crying out in pain and sobbing day and night, disturbing the whole mansion without peace; And Li Deng is not only the head of the family, but also his mentor and elder Wan Changning, and naturally lives a hard life of grief. Now in the face of Shen Gui's change of face, Li Deng, who was a little confused, didn't think of any reason at all.

It's all because when Fu Yi went to the house to ask for himself, he didn't reveal any tone; And he never imagined that his only daughter Li Le'an would disguise herself without knowing it, and return to the city of Fengjing from her hometown in the Great Wilderness City on Dongyou Road.

And when I think about it at this time, there is something very strange: my daughter, although she has an inexplicable good impression of Shen Gui, she is still a girl who has not left the cabinet at this time; Now that he has returned to Fengjing City, he actually knocked on the door of the Shen Mansion first; It's not just a matter of faux pas......

"Oh? Could it be that something is wrong in the Great Wilderness City? ”

Li Deng thought patiently for a long time, and the only thing that came to mind was this possibility.

In fact, since the beginning of the War between the Two Norths, the secret agents he placed on Dongyou Road have secretly reported the abnormal actions of some relatives of the Li family; But as soon as the war came, as a prime minister, he really had no time to take care of himself; Second, he also wants to put a long line to catch a big fish, after all, it is his own business, and they are blood relatives with each other, so they must have irrefutable ironclad evidence before they have a reason to kill the killer!

Li Le'an rubbed his red eyes, glared back at Shen Gui with a little disgust, and told the story of being 'intercepted' by the scar man in the Great Wilderness City.

Under Shen Gui's questioning, Li Le'an only revealed the result that more than a dozen killers had died in order to protect themselves; At that time, Shen Hui thought that there was some civil strife in the Li family, which would turn his anger on his future father-in-law; But now that he listened to the whole story, Shen Gui realized that this rebellion in the Great Wilderness City was far from as simple as he had imagined.

Li Deng also frowned after hearing this, and fell into a deep thought. On the contrary, Yan Qinghong, who was relatively simple-minded, slapped the table first:

"I said, Prime Minister, you are a white-eyed wolf who has raised a litter! They obviously feel that their wings are stiff and want to set up their own door, so they will send someone to assassinate their cousin, just to give you a dismount to take a look......"

Shen Gui hurriedly spoke out to stop Yan Qinghong, who was analyzing indiscriminately, and instead sat down in front of the dining table steadily, fiddling with the snow-white tea sets on the table:

"It's not that simple, it sounds like now, there are a few obvious doubts: this first suspicion: even if the time of the incident happened was in the middle of the night, and the opposite side of the Li family's mansion was the county government of Dahuangcheng. There was such a big commotion in the Li Mansion across the street in the middle of the night, according to common sense, would the yamen dare not send someone over to inspect it? So the first suspicion is what role Li Zilin, the prefect of the Great Wilderness City, played in this incident. ”

Li Deng nodded after listening, and then Shen Gui's words were introduced:

"Zilin, this child is of the same generation as Le An, and he is the son of the great elder of the foreign family. Everyone here is his own person, and Li might as well put it bluntly. The reason why Zilin was arranged to be the prefect of the Great Wilderness City was that the old man valued his honest and slightly cowardly temperament. Although such a person will not create any meritorious deeds, it is very suitable to guard the portal...... At that time, due to various reasons, the old man entered Beijing as an official alone, and there were only some old and young women and children left in the ancestral house of the Great Wilderness City, which is one of the important reasons why I arranged the Zong's house opposite the government office. ”

After hearing these words, Shen Gui did not hurry to make a statement, but continued to say what he had just said:

"Hmm...... This second doubt is why your Li family's relatives will unite at this time to want to make this deal with you. According to the conditions they put forward, they not only had to pay a large sum of cash for the purchase of the title deed, but also to ensure that the annual tribute would not be reduced in the slightest; But in the end, what they get is only some formal benefits; Besides, it is clear that they are the ones who are the ones who suffer, but they are eager to promote this matter, which makes no sense at all in common sense......"

Li Deng frowned and thought about it, and said in a tone full of doubts:

In fact, the signs of this matter actually fell into the eyes of the old man as early as the beginning of the War between the Two Norths; But at that time, all the old man's energy was tied to raising food and ordnance, and he had no time to deal with family affairs; Besides, I also had a mind to put a long line to catch big fish, so I put them aside and didn't say anything for a long time. But looking back on it today, I think it's a bit unusual. Because of the land they cultivated at this time, although the title deed was in the hands of the old man, because he was too busy with official business on weekdays, the old man had no leisure to intervene at all; At most, at the time of spring ploughing every year, carefully review the types of crops cultivated by each family. This is because he can use his position to adjust the food prices and quotas of various crops equally. It can also be said that whether they buy this title deed or not, it makes no difference to them at all......"

When Shen Gui heard this, he seemed to have an understanding, but he didn't continue to dwell on this issue, but instead opened the third tea bowl and continued to everyone present:

This third suspicion is also the strangest question on the surface. The Li Mansion family is heavily guarded and well-prepared, and the light and dark guards and the martial artists of the courtyard are all second-rate experts in the rivers and lakes; A few days ago, more than a dozen brothers from the winter solstice also happened to be at the meeting, and they were full of defense in the Li Mansion. Such a complete and sufficient defense force was completely wiped out under the command of a mysterious scar man...... A master of this level is not something that can be invited by just relying on silver......"

Speaking of this, Shen Gui looked at Liu Banxian, who was teasing the pigeon:

"Hey, hey, hey, old liar, don't pretend you can't hear it, based on your experience, what level of master is needed to quickly solve the more than two hundred Guardian Zhuangding martial artists, plus a lineup of more than a dozen first-class killers? …… Hey old liar, stop playing with pigeons...... Ay? I wanted to ask you just now, where did you steal these three pigeons? ”

Liu Banxian rolled his eyelids, pointed to Shen Gui's head and said:

"The lives of the dozen or so children on the winter solstice can only be counted on your own head! You know they're all deaf, and you always let them do those things that take care of the home! They can't even hear the voice, can they prevent a ghost? Therefore, the scar man in your mouth can only be counted as solving more than 200 wastes in a short period of time...... Judging from the time before and after, this person is still far from reaching the edge of the Heavenly Spirit Vein. As long as someone who is not weaker than Lu Xiangyin makes a move, this trip is not a difficult task...... As for these pigeons, they are all obtained by the old man who worked hard to support himself and hunted! I'm going to let Master Xiao Song take the time to help me bake, and I will beat my teeth......"

Shen Gui didn't pay attention to his crazy words, but grabbed a pure white pigeon with his own hands and stroked it twice, and when he looked at it, he found a small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg.

Shen Gui took out the note in the bamboo tube, unfolded it, and immediately looked at Yan Qinghong with an ambiguous expression.

There weren't many words written on this note, but it made everyone present stunned, and they forgot all the 'little things' of the Li family for a while.

The note reads:

Before Emperor Xuande died, he passed a decree and ordered the second prince Yan Qinghong to inherit the emperor's throne.
