Li Wenyuan's eyes were wide open, looking at the night owl leader in front of him. It was amazed that the Night Stalker Commander was suddenly not misled by his own words and told the truth at a critical moment. But Li Wenyuan naturally didn't have only this one plan, so after this method failed, Li Wenyuan slapped the table with his hand, stood up directly from his seat, and said to the night owl commander in front of him:

"What else do you not understand? Tell you what to do? Do you want to come up with an excuse to prevaricate me? It's useless to say more, you don't have any credibility in front of me right now. Until things come to light, I'll always be skeptical of you. This matter is no exception, it is said that it is better to see than to hear, let's get up immediately, I want to go to your night owl headquarters to see for yourself. ”

After listening to Li Wenyuan's words, the night owl leader was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with a wry smile, and said to Li Wenyuan: "Since His Royal Highness the Tang King said so, then I, as a subordinate official, naturally can't help but let you go to my night owl headquarters to check, right?" In your capacity as His Royal Highness the Tang King, don't say that you want to go to my night owl headquarters to have a look, you mean that you have directly removed me from the official position of the night owl leader, which is completely reasonable and legal. It's just that things have been a bit busy these days, so it's inevitable that there will be some messiness in the night owl headquarters. If you're not afraid of this mess staining your eyes, then we can head to my Night Stalker's headquarters right now, and you can do some research on what you want to know. ”

Li Wenyuan nodded after listening, and then said to the night owl commander in front of him with a little impatience: "What so much nonsense, since your night owl headquarters is not afraid that I will go to check, just lead the way in front." Don't say any more of these flamboyant tones, which make people sound disgusting to be honest. ”

The night owl commander was a little impatient when he heard Li Wenyuan's words, so he didn't dare to say anything more, but after answering yes, he led the way in front of the head and took Li Wenyuan to the night owl headquarters.

Li Wenyuan followed the night owl commander all the way to the gate of the night owl headquarters, and after standing in front of the door, Li Wenyuan carefully inquired about the night owl headquarters in front of him. Previously, he had also heard Qiu Niang say that the night owl headquarters in Zhangye County violated the rules and regulations and was built too luxuriously, so she criticized it by name and ordered it to be rebuilt. Li Wenyuan was still quite impressed by this incident. So after coming here, Li Wenyuan unconsciously shifted his attention to the appearance of this building.

The place where the headquarters of this night owl is located is a busy street. From the paving on both sides of this street, it can be seen that if this section of the street had not been temporarily blocked today because of Li Wenyuan's arrival. Then this street must be in an endless stream of people, and it must be spectacular.

According to Li Wenyuan's own psychological evaluation, if those shops come to lease this place, such a big façade may cost 10,000 taels of silver a year. But at this time, such a suitable door for business was occupied by the night owl, and no one would believe it if there was no collusion between the night owl and the local government.

After all, the officials of the local government also have political achievements to follow themselves, and they naturally want to maximize all the resources in their hands, and land is no exception. So the night stalkers occupy this place, either the night stalkers can take the money that the land should be worthwhile, or the night stalkers have reached some kind of secret agreement with the local government officials.

After looking at the face of the night owl headquarters, Li Wenyuan wanted to fold his arms, and he didn't go in or leave, just stood in front of the door, raised his head, and carefully looked at the decoration in front of him. The place facing the street of this night owl headquarters is not directly the courtyard wall and courtyard gate, but a very majestic and magnificent archway.

There is a wooden board hanging on the archway, and on the wooden board is written in a vigorous and powerful font: no cover, no barrier. This name was personally proposed by Li Wenyuan for the headquarters of these night stalkers in various cities, and the meaning of it was also that under the investigation of the night stalkers, everyone would have no secrets in front of Li Wenyuan, and there was no disguise. That's why there is an unobstructed four-character archway as the archway of the night owl headquarters.

After the archway, there is a tree-lined path surrounded by bushes and some newly planted trees. The whole trail is paved with bluestone, and the land under the bluestone has been repeatedly rammed, and even some secret medicines have been mixed in the process of tamping, so that even if the world is pounding and raining, it is not afraid.

First, the tree-lined path is covered by trees on both sides of the road to block some of the rainwater, and secondly, the roots of the bushes and trees are firmly tied to the surrounding dirt, making it difficult for them to flow into the bluestone brick path with the flowing water. In addition, the special design of the brick road makes the bluestone brick road unable to retain water at all, and after the rainwater falls on the brick road, it will seep into the rammed earth layer under the bricks along the gaps, and because the middle is high and the two sides are low, the water will flow directly to the culverts buried under the bushes on both sides of the road.

Then it flows down the culvert into the underground drainage system that has been newly built in Zhangye County in recent years, or directly into the shrubs and trees that are absorbed by these shrubs. This ingenious design, coupled with the difficulty of construction, is high. Therefore, this tree-lined path alone made Li Wenyuan feel that what Qiu Niang said was true, and he deliberately reduced the number in terms of scale.

Seeing this, Li Wenyuan knew what kind of serious the extravagant corruption that happened to Qiu Niang and the night owls of Zhangye County that he said, at first, Li Wenyuan really didn't believe it, how could the eight counties in the Western Regions that he relied on, the eight counties that can be called his absolute hinterland, still have such blatant violations of law and discipline?

But today, seeing the single front gate archway in front of him and the tree-lined path leading to the main entrance of the courtyard behind the door archway, Li Wenyuan did not have any doubts in his heart. On the contrary, I secretly regretted it in my heart and secretly scolded myself, it was really stupid. If I had listened to Qiu Niang's words and conducted an inventory of the night owls in Zhangye County as early as possible, where would so many things have happened?

But the matter has happened, and Li Wenyuan also knows that it is useless to regret it, so he also nodded first, and then took the lead in passing through this archway, and stepped on the blue brick road.
