Chapter 784: Stuck in the Swamp

Although Liu Ping said that he was mediocre, after all, he was also from the military, Wang Fuqu's disappearance made him realize that there was something strange in it, and he sensitively found that he seemed to have fallen into a trap, with the disappearance of Wang Fuqu, this trap began to tighten more and more, he already had a sense of breathless suffocation, but this intuition could not find the source, so that he had nowhere to use his strength, this feeling was very bad, very panicked.

Hurriedly returning to the Hou Mansion, Liu Ping just took a breath, and bad luck followed.

When he was outside the city, he ordered all the tribes of the Hou Mansion to go out to find the whereabouts of Wang Fuqu, Chang'an City is so big, it is naturally impossible to find it by relying on those few tribes in the Hou Mansion, and even Liu Ping himself has no hope.

However, Wang Fuqu was found.

It was not the troops of the Marquis of Anping who found him, but the servants of the Yongzhou Thorn Mansion.

The messenger received a letter from the Yongzhou Assassin and brought a few people to the door, followed by Wang Fuqu himself.

It's just that Wang Fuqu has turned into a corpse, the corpse is swollen and white, and it can't die anymore, it seems that it was fished out of the water.

When Liu Ping saw Wang Fuqu's corpse, his heart chuckled, and then endless sadness and anger swelled up, and not long after these emotions poured out, they quickly turned into panic and uneasiness.

The corpse in front of him told him that his intuition was right, and the entire Anping Marquis Mansion had fallen into a trap and there was no escape.

"Who, who did it?" Liu Ping stared at Wang Fuqu's corpse and asked through gritted teeth.

An officer from the Yongzhou Assassin's Mansion stepped forward and bowed, and said, "Zhou Assassin's History, please ask Marquis Liu to identify it carefully, is this person sure that he is from the Anping Marquis Mansion?" ”

Liu Ping didn't raise his eyes, still staring at the corpse, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, his name is Wang Fuqu, and he is the chief of the Hou Mansion's personal guard." ”

The messenger nodded and said, "It's good to determine the identity of the bitter master, what we are most afraid of is encountering a case with no beginning and no end." ”

Liu Ping said coldly: "How did Wang Fuqu die?" Have you found any eyebrows? ”

The messenger shook his head and said: "Two hours ago, there was a fishing boy who found Wang Fuqu when fishing by the Weishui River outside the city, and the stabbing Shifu took a cursory look, this person was killed for at least three days, his fatal wound was in the heart, and there was a wound about two inches long in the heart, as deep as five inches, and it was inferred that the murder weapon that murdered Wang Fuqu may be a small dagger, after the murderer killed, he threw the corpse into the water, and the corpse was soaked in the water for three days, so the whole body was swollen and white, Zhou Tingshi sent the villain to ask, if it was determined that it was the guard of your house, Then please make it convenient for Marquis Liu, and let the villain ask in your house to see who Wang Fuqu has offended before, where he often goes, ......etc."

Liu Ping's face was gloomy, and he didn't even bother to speak, he only waved his hand, which was regarded as acquiescence.

The servants saluted gratefully, then dispersed, and inquired around the Hou Mansion unceremoniously.

Liu Ping was in turmoil at the moment, he knew very well that Wang Fuqu's death had nothing to do with personal grievances, I am afraid that most of them were involved in the affairs of the Hou family, and the servants of Yongzhou Mansion had found the wrong direction at all, but their grievances with the Hou family were not enough for outsiders, if this matter was said, even if he took the murderer of Wang Fuqu, he Liu Ping could not please him, after all, from the beginning to the present, the Anping Houfu has always played a disgraceful role in this matter.

Glancing sadly at Wang Fuqu lying on the ground, Liu Ping sighed and turned back to the house.

From now on, he Liu Ping swore that he would never provoke the Hou family again, and only hoped that the person behind the layout would end here, the Hou Mansion of Anping had paid for a human life, and the Hou family had not had time to form a hatred that was not shared, at best, it was just a little friction, and it should be enough if things have developed so far......

As for who the person behind the layout is, Liu Ping has already listed a few candidates in his heart, or Hou Junji's old minister, or his best friend, no matter who it is, just looking at his perfect layout skills, it makes Liu Ping feel a chill from the bottom of his heart, this kind of person is by no means something he can afford to provoke, and it has nothing to do with the status of the official, even if he is just a white cloth, if he wants to play him Liu Ping to death, it should be a very easy task.

In an instant, Li Su's young and friendly face flashed through Liu Ping's mind, Liu Ping was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head vigorously.

If it is really him, this young man is too terrible, no wonder the court and the ministers value him so much, no wonder the eldest grandson Wuji admires him so much, he is indeed a vain man under the fame, if what happened in the past few days is really his situation behind the scenes......

Thinking of this, Liu Ping was inexplicably excited, immediately turned around, and shouted: "Come on, prepare the horse!" I'm going out of the city to Taiping Village! ”

The dog Liu Xian stepped forward, glanced at him suspiciously, and said softly: "Father, at this moment, it is the time to hold the lights, the curfew in the city, and the city gates and gates have been closed......"

Liu Ping sighed distractedly, his face turned a little pale in an instant, and he said weakly: "Then forget it, wait for the city gate to open early tomorrow morning, and then go ......"

Then, under Liu Xian's puzzled gaze, Liu Ping walked towards the inner courtyard alone and dejectedly, muttering to himself as he walked: "Is it him?" It's not him, is it? How could it be him? I'm only in my twenties, and besides...... At that time, he also ordered the subordinates to smash the Qinglou, and he was also preparing to come to find me trouble, obviously he should not know...... Right? ”

…………

Liu Ping felt that the Marquis of Anping Mansion had paid such a price, even if there was a layout behind it, it should be accepted when this effect was achieved, after all, it was not a deep hatred that did not share the sky, and it was not for nothing to fight in the circle of the powerful, but it was rare to completely tear the face and want to put the other party to death and then hurry up.

However, Liu Ping also misestimated the direction.

The goal that others want to achieve is not to bring down the Anping Hou Mansion at all, but to Hou Junji.

For this purpose, what will happen to the Marquis of Anping and how many people will die is not in the consideration of others.

The wish is beautiful, but the reality is too cruel.

The next day, just after dawn, the gate of Chang'an City opened, and Liu Ping, who had not slept all night, immediately went out of the house, and while tidying up his clothes, he loudly ordered to prepare the horses.

After thinking about it all night, in Liu Ping's heart, Li Su's suspicion became more and more serious, and the more Liu Ping thought about it, the more he felt that the trap he fell into was the handiwork of Li Su himself, and it was very likely.

After thinking about this, Liu Ping's first feeling was not anger, he didn't even have the courage to be angry now, only deep chagrin, he thought that Hou Junji was exiled and couldn't turn over for the rest of his life, and Hou Junji's popularity in the court can only be described as miserable, Liu Ping thought about it left and right, until he felt that he was seventy or eighty percent sure, and then he acquiesced to the dog Liu Xian's action against Hou Jie.

However, who knew that Hou Junji had such a poor popularity, and there was such a strong old man who protected his family without regrets, if he knew that there was such a great god, how dare he Liu Ping dare to do something to the Hou family?

Liu Ping went out to Taiping Village early this morning in order to see Li Su.

He has made up his mind that this time he will see Li Su no matter what, sincerely apologize to him in person, and strive for Li Su's forgiveness, no matter whether the person behind the layout is Li Su or not, this person should not be offended.

Called Liu Xian, and then instructed the housekeeper to prepare several large carts of gifts, Liu Ping was about to go out, when he suddenly saw the housekeeper in the house staggering towards him.

"Master Hou is not good!"

Liu Ping's heart sank: "What's the alarm?" ”

"Outside the house, outside the house...... Hou Junji's main lady led the Hou family, young and old, and was kneeling in front of the mansion, saying that she was begging the Hou master to let the Hou family have a way to live......"

Liu Ping was shocked: "I haven't provoked her anymore, where do you start?" ”

The housekeeper sighed, and said with a sad face: "Master Hou, the death of Wang Fuqu has spread all over Chang'an City this morning......

Liu Ping said puzzledly: "So what? Anyway, Wang Fuqu is from my Hou Mansion, what does his life or death matter to others? ”

The housekeeper sighed: "It's none of other people's business, but people are terrible, I don't know which one killed a thousand knives and chewed the root of the tongue, saying that the Hou family's son was broken leg was instructed by Hou Ye to do Wang Fuqu, Wang Fuqu is Hou Ye's personal guard for many years, can be described as a confidant, and is the highest martial artist in the Hou Mansion, the matter is big, Hou Ye is worried about leaking the news, and ordered to secretly kill Wang Fuqu, this statement has spread all over Chang'an this morning, the bad thing is that it seems that the people of Chang'an believe it, and the Hou family has also heard this rumor, So they knelt down in front of our Hou Mansion and begged the Hou Ye to spare their lives......"

Liu Ping only felt a Nine Heavens Divine Thunder slash above his head, and then his eyes turned black, and his body couldn't help but stagger.

The butler hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

Liu Ping pushed the housekeeper away heavily, his eyes were red and on fire, his whole body trembled with anger, and finally a sentence burst out from between his teeth.

"Who did I, Liu Ping, offend! What a grudge against me! ”
