Chapter Seventy-Six: The Caravan's Whereabouts

"What now?" Xuan Shijing asked Li Ke in a low voice.

No one thought that such a scene would appear on the way, and Li Su's mansion really hid the woman he plundered in Chang'an.

Li Ke shook his head slightly, and said: "I don't know, now I can only see what my father thinks, but now that Xiao Su has lost weight, my father should also have a little compassion." ”

When Xuan Shijing heard this, he sighed silently in his heart, if there was no such thing as this mother and daughter before, maybe it would be as everyone thought, His Majesty Li Er saw Li Su's tragic situation, and would punish him lightly, but His Majesty Li Er, who was so immortal, had just arrived at the Shu Palace, and first heard Li Su's "bold words", and then saw the two women who were forcibly captured in Li Su's mansion, which may be of no other use except adding fuel to the fire.

"Li Su, is there anything else you want to say to me?" His Majesty Li Er looked at Li Su's eyes, revealing a sense of indifference, originally unhappy with what Wei Zheng said about Li Su's actions when he played, but now he has seen Li Su's badness with his own eyes, and he is even more disappointed with this son.

"Father, son, father" Li Su didn't care about the injuries on his body at this time, and even knelt in front of His Majesty Li Er: "The son knows the mistake, the father, the son knows the wrong father and the emperor is gracious." ”

"Kai'en? Think about what you did in your fiefdom, you still don't know how to restrain yourself when you arrive in Chang'an, and the fiefdom officials have a lot of advice, not only do you not listen, but you also ordered the evil slaves in the palace to beat the subordinate officials, which is simply inferior to a beast! His Majesty Li Er hated iron and pointed at Li Su and said.

"Father, although Xiao Yu is stubborn, but now he has beaten and scolded, and he still hopes that his father will be gracious." Li Ke bowed down and pleaded with Li Su.

His Majesty Li Er closed his eyes and stopped looking at Li Su, and waved his hand: "Since Ke'er you said so, it's okay, pass on my will, Li Su, the king of Shu, has been confined to the Shu Wangfu since today, and has been thinking about it behind closed doors, without my will, he is not allowed to take a step out of the Shu Wangfu, and he is virtuous." ”

"The slave is here." Deyi bowed forward: "What does Your Majesty command?" ”

"I asked you to make a will in the palace before, you and Xuan Cheng went to the door together, and drafted the will." His Majesty Li Er said.

Hearing this, Deyi looked at Li Ke and Xuan Shijing who were standing not far away, and then looked at Li Su who was kneeling on the ground, and bowed down and responded: "Yes." ”

When Li Ke heard the words of His Royal Highness Li Er, he couldn't help but wonder what his father had made before, and it seemed that he was going to enter the palace to find someone to inquire.

After all, a farce in the Shu Wangfu ended in the will of His Majesty Li Er, although there were quite twists and turns on the way, but Li Ke's dozens of boards against Li Su also worked, at least Li Su had no other losses for the time being except for being grounded in the Shu Palace.

Of course, what Xuan Shijing didn't know was that before he and Li Ke set up the Shu Palace, Wei Zheng reported Li Su's evil deeds to His Majesty Li Er, and now, Li Su, whether it is a fief or an official position, has been demoted by His Majesty Li Er.

The circle of Chang'an City, because of Li Su's grounding and demotion, has calmed down a lot for a while, and all the governments are telling their children to be on the cusp of the recent limelight, and they are less likely to cause trouble outside, and even the King of Shu has been punished by His Majesty, not to mention that you are an ordinary official child

Seeing that this day has reached the twentieth day of the lunar month, Li Chengqian has already rushed back to Chang'an from Liaodong, and Gao Jun is estimated to be in Chang'an City.

It is said that after Gao Jun took the caravan from Dengzhou to Erxianzhuang, Li Yuanjing sent people to set off from Xiangzhou quickly, tracking down the whereabouts of his money all the way, and every time he arrived in a city, he would notify the local government to strictly investigate, although so, Gao Jun always set off two days earlier than Li Yuanjing, and he kept hurrying day and night, because Qiandui told Gao Jun that the farther away from Li Yuanjing, the safer it would be, so when the people sent by Li Yuanjing arrived in Dengzhou, Qiandui had already arrived at Erxianzhuang.

In the Dengzhou Mansion, Li Yuanjing sat in the guest seat of the Tang Dynasty with his guards, holding a tea bowl in his hand, and listened carefully to the report of the local assassin history.

"Are you saying that a few days ago, there was a large caravan that stayed in Dengzhou for one night and left Dengzhou the next day?" Li Yuanjing looked at the history of the Dengzhou assassination.

"Exactly, the lower officials sent people to inquire around the city to learn that this caravan is from Chang'an, and at the end of the year it came out to purchase New Year's goods for various prefectures, according to the people in the city, this caravan has also purchased a lot of local specialties in Dengzhou, and in the past few days, the largest caravan is none other than this team." Dengzhou Thorn Shi thought carefully and said: "Other caravans, if you say that the scale, must be not small, but according to the number of lost goods you said, Your Highness, those caravans are far from hiding, not to mention that the caravan itself also brought some things, if it is really hidden in the goods, then when it leaves Dengzhou, it will definitely be checked out by the soldiers guarding the door." ”

"Where did this caravan come from?" Li Yuanjing asked.

"I don't know if I'm going to do it." Dengzhou Assassin replied that it was only because the caravan of the Hou Mansion was too large that it aroused the ideas of the people in the city, but who would go out of their way to ask what the origin of the people was?

"Since I know that I am from Chang'an, I will definitely return to Chang'an." Li Yuanjing said in a low voice, and then said to the Dengzhou Thorn History: "This king is here to thank Lord Thorn Shi for his help, if he finds the things of the Japanese king, he will be grateful." Li Yuanjing got up and clenched his fists and said.

The assassin of Dengzhou also got up with Li Yuanjing and responded with his hand: "His Royal Highness King Jing is polite, since this group of thieves has passed through Dengzhou, it is within the scope of the lower officials in Dengzhou." ”

Li Yuanjing nodded, and then after greeting Dengzhou Assassin Shi for a while, he left Dengzhou's mansion with people.

"Lord Wang, this Dengzhou Thorn History said that this caravan is from Chang'an, is this credible? Normal people know that when the end of this year comes, the royal family members who are outside the domain will return to Chang'an, and if it is a caravan from Chang'an, they will have to return to Chang'an in the end, which is not self-defeating. The guard beside Li Yuanjing said.

Li Yuanjing waved his hand a little irritably, and said: "What the Dengzhou Assassin Shi said, you can't believe it, and you can't believe it all, no matter what, this is also a clue, and I ordered the following, immediately straighten out your outfit and return to Chang'an immediately." ”

"Yes, lord." The guard answered.

Li Yuanjing is thinking about it now, he must return to Chang'an immediately, it is best to stop the caravan when they have not entered Chang'an City, and check it on the spot, he Li Yuanjing wants to see which passer-by ate the bear's heart and leopard gall and dared to steal his Jingwang's money.

And the big thief caravan in Li Yuanjing's mouth has been rectified in Erxianzhuang and has begun to march towards Chang'an.
