Chapter 170: Li Xulun's Plea for Help

The door can be pulled very high, but the action must be cautious, otherwise, it is self-defeating, this truth Li Xian is very tight, therefore, since the holy decree, Li Xian will no longer ask about the case of Lion Tail Lane, every day except for the necessary palace to ask for peace, did not go anywhere, as much as the cat in his own house, or practice martial arts, or read books, quite a kind of self-satisfied appearance, seems to be in the uproar of the investigation of the case at all.

Lose sleep over something? Now Li Xian really has nothing to worry about, the clues that should be erased have long been wiped clean, the subordinates who participated in the battle of Lion Tail Lane, except for Luo Tong, the rest of the people have already been sent to the Yangzhou rudder in the south to temporarily avoid the limelight, as for those ruffians who were captured by Yan Desheng, it is none of Li Xian's business, those people are just boring idlers who spent a little money on the action group and invited from the restaurant casually, they don't know anything at all, they are worthless, life and death have nothing to do with Li Xian, of course, If Empress Wu's party wants to make these idlers trick up some false accusations, Li Xian will have a headache, but as long as Yan Desheng doesn't show up for a day, Empress Wu will not dare to do this framing thing, obviously, Yan Desheng, who has already been destroyed and wiped out, will never have a chance to reappear in the light of day, no matter how you calculate it, nothing can worry Li Xian.

There are no things to worry about, but there are a lot of things to worry about, not to mention the trivial things in his own house, the most nerve-wracking thing for Li Xian is one - I can't go to see Zhao Qiong, it's not that Li Xian doesn't want to go, but I can't go, at least before the case of Lion Tail Lane is closed, Li Xian can't appear in Zhao's mansion, as for the private invitation, the risk is still too great, Li Xian doesn't want to lose big because of the small, in addition to holding back the thoughts in his heart, but there is no other way, fortunately, since the Empress Wu has the intention to cover up this case, it will not be protracted. It's been a long time.

Of course, the days will not become faster because of people's good mood, but if they are in a bad mood, this day will pass more and more slowly, poor Li Xian has counted the days several times with his fingers, but it has only been six days, although the case in Lion's Tail Lane has been handled in a hurry, but there is obviously no sign of closing the case, which makes Li Xian upset, but he has no choice but to be patient and continue to boil down, perhaps because God can't bear to let Li Xian work too hard, and finally graciously sent a bell solver to Li Xian- Li Xulun, who was so anxious about the bloody case, couldn't support it anymore, and ran to Li Xian's mansion for help.

"How can the eighth brother have time to come to my brother's house today, isn't the case closed?"

As soon as Li Xulun arrived, Li Xian had already guessed his meaning, but he didn't intend to say anything, but just smiled and introduced it into the backyard hall, and the guests and hosts sat down, and ordered the people to serve freshly brewed fragrant tea, and then asked knowingly with a smile.

"No, no, no."

Li Xulun took Li Xian as a role model when he was small, always thinking that if he got the opportunity, he would have to be as good as Li Xian to behave once, this time when he first took over the case of Shiwei Lane, Li Xulun was full of confidence, and planned to make it an iron case like Li Xiancheng's masterpiece - Shangguanyi's case, but unfortunately the wish is beautiful, but the reality is extremely cruel, poor Li Xulun has been living in the palace all these years, and he has no experience at all. Life is tired and thin, but there is no clue at all, not only failed to take this opportunity to erect prestige, but because he is not familiar with government affairs and has not been less gossip from those foreign ministers, under such an encounter, Li Xulun's pride has already turned into discouragement, at this time I heard Li Xian's sight and hear, and under the shame in my heart, my tender face couldn't help but blush, and I stammered back, lowered my head, and didn't dare to look at Li Xian's eyes.

"Oh? Is it so tricky? The eighth brother was guilty. ”

Li Xian smiled mildly and said a word of comfort.

"Seventh brother, little brother, little brother, ah, that ......"

Hearing Li Xian's words, Li Xulun's face suddenly turned a little redder, and he had the heart to ask for help, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say it, and his face turned purple.

Tsk, this little guy's skin is still so thin and tight, he can't even open his mouth to beg someone, it's enough to choke! Li Xian and Li Xulun are brothers in two lives, and they know Li Xulun's character, but seeing him so shy, he still can't help but laugh for a while, but anyway, since Li Xulun has come to the door, this favor always has to help, of course, before helping, Li Xian must also set Li Xulun's words first, and he must see if there is any movement on the other side of the martial arts, so he can make plans again, so he is not in a hurry to speak, but just gave Li Xulun an encouraging smile.

"Seventh brother, the younger brother is deep in the quagmire this time, but it is difficult to find a way out, and I ask the seventh brother to take the time to guide the younger brother to the maze, and the younger brother thanked him first."

Li Xulun peeked at Li Xian's face, and saw that Li Xian was smiling exceptionally kindly, and the panic in his heart was greatly reduced, and he mustered up his courage and hurriedly said what he was asking for.

"Eighth brother doesn't need to be like this, you and my brother are one, how can my brother sit idly by and ignore the matter of the eighth brother, but this matter is the will of the father and the queen mother, and it involves internal prohibition, without the permission of the father and the queen mother, it is really difficult for the brother to meddle in it, this is ......" Li Xian first smiled slightly, and then frowned, and said in embarrassment.

"Ah, this, this ......"

Li Xulun is really helpless, this is the only way to find Li Xian's house, I thought that if I made a request, with Li Xian's boldness, he should be willing to take a hand, but he forgot that the heavenly family has its own scruples, after all, Li Xian is now the prince of the opening of the mansion, if there is no will, it is indeed not suitable to participate in the case related to the internal ban, if the matter is revealed, Li Xian is very likely to be impeached for a charge of "conspiracy", the risk is not small, at this time Li Xianyi made this joint clear, Li Xulun's enthusiasm suddenly froze, and his little face wrinkled bitterly.

"Eighth brother, the queen mother has always been wise, why doesn't the eighth brother ask the queen mother?"

Seeing Li Xulun in a daze, Li Xian couldn't help laughing, and asked casually.

"So that the seventh brother will know, the younger brother has asked, but, can ...... Alas, the queen mother only said, 'This case is serious, and there must be a result as soon as possible.' 'Alas, how can the younger brother not know that the matter is serious, and he is indeed in a hurry to crack the case, but ......" As soon as he heard Li Xian say this, Li Xulun's already bitter face became a little more bitter, sighing continuously, the image of a bitter child who has suffered a great grievance, but complained about nowhere to go.

Closing the case sooner? Ha, sure enough! Li Xian is not a rookie who doesn't understand anything like Li Xulun, just listening to it, he has already grasped the hidden meaning of Empress Wu's words - how to close the case or not, the key is to close it quickly, obviously, the purpose of Empress Wu to say this sentence is not to Li Xulun, a stupid boy, but to Li Xian, and what is released is a signal of compromise.

"Oh, I see, does the queen mother have any other orders?"

Li Xian was very thoughtful, and he would not be in a hurry to make a decision because of Li Xulun's words, but asked carefully.

"No, the little brother hopes to have it, but the queen mother doesn't give the little brother a chance to ask again, alas, it's difficult for the little brother to see the queen mother these days, seventh brother, look ......"

Li Xulun shook his head in distress, and after sighing, he looked at Li Xian with a blank eye, and he wanted to ask for help, but he didn't dare to speak.

"Well, that's the case, does the father have any explanation?"

Although Li Xian already had a plan in his heart, he still didn't plan to say it immediately, but nodded thoughtfully, and asked hesitantly.

"The father only said that he was not in a hurry, if the case is tricky, it is okay to give the younger brother more time, but the others didn't say anything, the younger brother saw that his father was not looking good these days, and he didn't dare to disturb more, so he could only come to the seventh brother to think of a way, seventh brother, you, can you help the younger brother?" Now, Li Xulun didn't care about losing face, Huo Ran stood up, bowed to Li Xian, and directly asked for help.

"Eighth brother doesn't need to be like this, just let me plan for my brother's life."

Li Xian didn't get up to return the salute, but pressed his hand with a solemn face, motioned for Li Xulun to sit down, and then, ignoring Li Xulun's pitiful gaze, frowned slightly, and thought deeply about himself - long before the incident, Li Xian had already calculated it, and he had already had relevant plans for various situations that might arise, and he was not worried that he would not be able to pass this hurdle, of course, the compromise of the Empress Wu was naturally the best one among the various situations, and Li Xian did not ask the Empress Wu to open up to himself in the future. Just hope that the Empress Wu will have scruples when he plans to play a conspiracy with himself in the future, as for whether the Empress Wu will hold a grudge because of this, Li Xian doesn't care very much, one is that the two sides are irreconcilable natural enemies, and it doesn't matter whether they hate or not, and furthermore, in Li Xian's view, the primary target of the Empress Wu at the moment can only be the prince, not himself, after this battle, it may be time for the Empress Wu to attack the prince, before that, the possibility of the Empress Wu having extraneous branches is extremely small, in other words, the two sides may be able to coexist peacefully for a period of time, Although this period of time will not be too long, it is enough for Li Xian, at least he can plan a safe way to marry Zhao Qiong home.

"Brother Seven, is there a way?"

Li Xulun waited pitifully for a long time, and finally looked forward to Li Xian raising his head, and before Li Xian could speak, he couldn't wait to ask a word.

"Well, there is a way, it's just ......"

Li Xian nodded solemnly, but he only stopped after saying half a sentence, so anxious that Li Xulun scratched his head......
