After Li Zhi approached, before he could speak, he said first: "Come with this king!" After saying that, he went straight to the study.

"How's it going, can you investigate clearly?" Li Zhi asked.

"Your Highness, these days, I have been monitoring Ma Shuangquan's stall in the West Market, and I have also inquired about a lot of information from the side." Xue Bing paused.

"What's the situation? You talk about it. ”

"This Ma Shuangquan has indeed been doing this slave trade for some time, and he has a good reputation in the West Market, but it is not a good reputation, because he is not clean in business, and he has done murder and stealing goods, I heard that once he robbed more than ten slaves from the previous family, and then killed the owner of the goods."

"How do you know that?" Li Zhi was a little curious about this, it stands to reason that these should not be the news on the surface, I don't know how this Xue Bing learned about it.

After Xue Bing hesitated slightly, he gestured and said, "Your Highness, there is nothing in this world that money can't do... Hey.. You don't know, I spent all my wife's money for this news.." After saying that, make a sad face.

"Okay, you go to the account office and pay your expenses back in a moment, you go on."

"Well, I also learned from the surrounding dealers that this Ma Shuangquan has indeed not been to the market for some time, and they all wonder why his stall guys have changed all over the place, and they are all rumoring whether this Ma Shuangquan has run away."

Li Zhi pondered for a moment and said, "Then it seems that what Wei Gao said is not bad, right!" Can you ask if this horse has any enemies? ”

"No, but I did find out that he has a private house outside the city, and he secretly keeps a concubine in it, and there are very few people who know about it, or I learned from the stall owner of the stall next door to him, and it just so happens that Ma Shuangquan's private house is not far from his house, so I know."

"Stealing a concubine?" Li Zhi was puzzled, "Does he have a wife and children?" ”

"Well, that's right, but his wife and children have also disappeared, and not many people know about this concubine." Xue Bing nodded.

"Then did you go to a private house outside the city to investigate?"

"I've been there, and there's a woman living there."

"Well, okay, this king knows, you go down first, you don't care about this matter for now, rest for a few days, and then the king will order you in a few days." Li Zhi slowed down.

"Yes!" With that, Xue Bing retreated.

After Xue Bing left, Li Zhi leaned back in his chair, rested for a while, and said, "Li Tong! ”

It didn't take long... Suddenly, the newly installed glass window was opened after a squeak, and a cold wind was immediately poured in, and at the same time, a person came in from the dark night, and said respectfully: "Your Highness." ”

Li Zhi shuddered for a while, and said in a trembling voice: "I said, can you close the window first... It's cold..."

Li Tong turned his head to look, looking embarrassed, and quickly got up and closed the window...

Li Zhi hurriedly held the stove in his hand, and said after warming up his body a little.

"How's the preparation for Jinyiwei?"

"Back to Your Highness, you're on the right track."

"Good! In this case, you must have heard the conversation between this king and Xue Bing just now, be sure to find this Ma Shuangquan for this king, live to see people, dead to see corpses, let this king see the role of your brocade guard! Li Zhi said coldly.

"Obey the order, and you will not disappoint Your Highness!" After speaking, Li Tong disappeared into the dark night again

Li Zhi scolded with a smile, he really cherished words like gold, so he slipped away? Let's close the window for this king....

As soon as the complaining voice fell, suddenly the window slammed back, and only one sentence remained, "Your Highness, your window is so beautiful..."

Li Zhi was stunned, and couldn't help laughing, "It seems that this special Li Tong is completely sullen, and he also said that he has few words, it seems that this king has been deceived by him..."

But he still got up and opened the window a little, and said to himself, "You still have to pay attention to safety to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning..."

In this winter, every household has a charcoal basin, but if the coal can not be burned completely, carbon monoxide will be produced, and if inhaled, it will cause poisoning, which is a great threat to the brain, heart and lungs and other vital organs.

In ancient times, there were also people who knew that the charcoal brazier was placed in the house for heating, and they should pay attention to ventilation, and realized that the gas produced by coal combustion can cause death, and it was recorded in the "Collection of Grievances": "The coal poison in the middle, the fire leakage of the soil kang and the stench, the person is fumigated, and he does not realize that he kills himself, and his corpse is soft and unharmed, which is similar to the person who can not recover from the nightmare of the nightmare." ”

From this, we know that the ancient people were still very smart, but they didn't know that this gas was called carbon monoxide, and even said that carbon monoxide was just a name given by later generations.

However, this reminded Li Zhi that the preparations for the chemistry laboratory should not be delayed...

After opening the window slightly, Li Zhi sat back in his chair.

To get back to the point, as for why he wanted to find this Ma Shuangquan, Li Zhi naturally had his plans, because this person had a great relationship with the case of smuggling slaves in Yuqingguan, and it was also related to the direct evidence of whether the border guard Nie Ting was involved in smuggling, otherwise even if Li Zhi personally led troops to Yuqingguan to get people, there would be no evidence of what happened to Nie Ting.

Therefore, Li Zhi must find him!

It was late at night, Li Zhi looked at the dark night sky through the glass window, and gradually lost his mind.

I don't know how things are handled there....

Li Zhixiang Zhang Qing resigned, and it has been a few days since Zhang Qing resigned to go to Beijing to do business, so he can't help but be a little worried.

In such a daze, Li Zhi gradually fell asleep, and this day was tiring enough.

Nothing to say all night ....

The next day, Li Zhi came to the Chamber of Commerce early, Li Zhi summoned a team of nearly 1,000 businessmen, these merchants from all over the country, of course, there must be some people who have no intentions, but what can this be?

I slept very comfortably last night, Li Zhi walked around with a smile, because there were more people today, and there would definitely not be so many people sitting in the main hall, so today's venue for the Open Chamber of Commerce Char was arranged in the backyard of this house, and ordered people to demolish the two firewood houses, which are actually relatively wide.

Li Zhi came to the backyard, and the scene in front of him surprised him, this is too simple, in addition to the place where the merchants sit, there is only one platform without any disguise, not to mention the arrangement of flowers, fruits, and food. So he turned around and asked Char, "Yes, Char, it's well arranged, you have a heart." ”

"I heard that His Royal Highness likes to thrift, so he dared to arrange it like this, and now I know that His Highness likes it, and I am also happy with my humble position." Char smiled, the layout is so simple, but also thanks to what he learned about living in King Xin's Mansion for a period of time, because he not only saw that the layout of the palace was simple in King Xin's Mansion, but also that there were few servants and slaves, and he also heard from his subordinates, His Royal Highness King Xin was indeed economical, so he did what he liked and arranged the venue like this.
