Chapter 299: Murder at Night

It was thirty, there was no moon in the sky, and the dark clouds had covered the stars, which suddenly became a little bleak. There were no pedestrians in the crossroads, the doors were closed, and in the middle of the alleys, the roving samurai were patrolling in groups. And on Changxiamen Street, Dingdingmen Street outside, Jin Wuwei has already swept over and over again as if he was cleaning, and even the corners couldn't hide a person. In these years, committing a night is a big crime, even if the emperor is a relative of the country, it is impossible to catch it.

At this time, the time has long passed, and those officials who are going to go to court the next day have already rested, or they are holding the beautiful concubine Hu Tianhudi, or secretly communicating with one of the lady's maids, all in all, this cool season is a good time to pass on the lineage, no worse than the sultry heat of summer and the bitter cold of winter. As for the idle nobles who don't have to go to court, they are still enjoying the good time of the night.

However, a group of people in Pei Wangdi did not have such good fortune. Cao Wangming was the first to be unable to sleep, and tonight it was easy for Li Xian to make an excuse, and Li Xian, who could live outside, was the second to be unable to sleep, as for Li Xian...... If he doesn't figure out what should be clear, can he sleep?

And Cheng Chumo, who was old enough to be the father of three people, sat there with his head bored, his eyes staring at the flickering candlelight, as if he had a deep hatred for the candle. In the corner on the side, Luo Chuji sat without saying a word.

According to the slave tamer, it was not his intention to release the tiger, but to receive a message from someone else, whom he did not know. According to this inference, Li Xian's original opinion is untenable, it is not that he is sentimental, Cheng Bohu, Xue Dingshan, Xu Yanran, and Ah Li are almost the targets of him, needless to say, this is very likely to be aimed at him, so he has a gloomy face.

Cao Wang Ming thought that he was the most unlucky this time, so when he saw that the others were silent, he had to grit his teeth and ask, "Lu Guogong, what new confession did that guy recruit?" ”

"That guy is cool, and he recruited them all without execution. It's a pity that except for asking which surname, the others are the original ones, which are useless! ”

Ploughed the inside and outside of Luoyang like ploughing, but in the end, Li Xian found a clue, Cheng Chumo was naturally angry, and his tone was a little angry at this time. It's just that he is a forty-man after all, and the three people present are all princes, and although the other is a small character, he can't always get angry at unrelated people. So he quickly calmed down.

"Today, a large team of people has stirred up His Royal Highness King Cao, your courtyard, and everyone must know it. This matter basically ends here, and it will be a waste of time to dig deeper. I'm out of line anyway. You three princes have come up with a charter! ”

As soon as Cheng Chumo lost this burden, he suddenly felt relaxed. Of course, the revenge of his own son is to be avenged, but this matter is obviously not small, and the three princes sitting here alone are not clear in the future. King Cao is certainly not an important person. But after all, he is the emperor's brother, and he is also very popular among the children of the royal family, so why bother him to offend people?

This disguised statement suddenly made Cao Wangming breathe a sigh of relief, no matter what, it is also a good thing to be able to settle this head. He glanced at Li Xian and Li Xian's brothers, and saw that the latter secretly smiled bitterly at him. immediately alluded to Li Xian, and he knew that whether he could be good this time or not all depended on Li Xian's attitude.

"Rokuro, no matter who instructed the beast slave, in short, it was my negligence to almost kill you, and it was in vain to say ten thousand words of apology. You said a charter, that is, I went to the palace overnight today to ask for sin. I admit it too! ”

As he spoke, he stood tall and went down prostrately. Seeing this scene, although the others hurriedly got up, Li Xian also stepped up with his hands in an arrow step, and secretly said in his heart that he was cunning if he was a character in these years - just kidding, this Cao Wang Shao said that he was also his uncle, can he afford this gift? If his father really had the heart to investigate, he would have ordered Yousi to file a case long ago, and would not let Cheng Chumo investigate secretly.

"Uncle Fourteen was just deceived by others, and I am not the one who will repay him. How can I be angry with you? ”

A simple single sentence defined the whole thing, and Cao Wangming breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Cheng Chumo also nodded, and Li Xian was even more happy - since his brother said so, he would naturally be even more fine. He knew that his brother was the most protective of him, and he didn't know how much he helped him since he was a child.

Li Xian's joy is naturally known in his heart when he hides in the shadows. As the biggest key to exposing it, he proposed the article of darkness under the lamp, and by the way, he broke the existence of that house, and he, the pawn of King Pei's Mansion who has not yet arrived, undoubtedly made great contributions. However, at this moment, he didn't intend to interject at all, and sat there quietly to observe Li Xian's reaction. Including his generous and open-minded words, casual expression, and a hint of ruthlessness inadvertently.

Of course, that ruthlessness is not Li Xiandi's patent, even Cao Wangming, who has not suffered much wind and rain, or Li Xian, who is not familiar with the world, all have an unusually clear attitude - we must cut the grass and eradicate the roots! Even Cheng Chumo, who had just said that he had no choice, also patted his chest at the critical moment, as long as the other three had a way, he would be absolutely outstanding

Cao Wangming didn't want to be used as a gunman for no reason; Li Xian wanted to make up for his mistakes; Cheng Chumo wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge on his son; As for Lee Hyun...... I have to say that he is still thinking about the benefits and losses of this matter.

Although he is still a chick when playing politics, he still understands the rules and regulations. Daddy rewarded him with a jade pendant last time, which means that his broad-mindedness is very good, that is to say, the general environment of stability and unity is the most important, and there is something to solve secretly; And as far as his mother's attitude is concerned, the current situation in the court is not good, it is best to use some things to make trouble, take down some people who should be taken, and promote the people who should be promoted, so that she will not be short of people.

As a result, his role as a sandwich cookie is really difficult to play.

He scanned face after face, and finally paused on the shadowy Luo Chu's fuselage. From the beginning, this guy didn't say a word, which greatly violated his original intention of deliberately leaving people behind. This person was able to carefully investigate the scene and found clues, how could he not think of anything this time, so, is this Luo clumsy?

Seeing that there was no reason to discuss for a while, Li Xian arranged for Cao Wangming and Li Xian to live in the house, anyway, it is not illegal to stay with relatives in this year, and there are as many empty houses as there are in his family. As soon as the two left, he turned around and stared at Cheng Chumo's eyes, and immediately asked thoughtlessly, "You really don't know anything?" ”

Although this question was asked strangely, Cheng Chumo's face remained unchanged, and Luo Chuji was also unmoved. I don't know how long it took, Cheng Chumo suddenly scratched his head, and then snorted angrily: "No wonder the old man said that you are a thief, you are really a good man at this young age." Of course, so many days are not in vain, although I didn't expect that courtyard to go up, but I still found out a few other things, such as Zhang San and Li Si hooked up, Wang Wu and Zhao Liu secretly sent Qiubo, this kind of thing is not a few. ”

This is naturally a hidden word, Li Xian raised his eyebrows coldly, but did not continue to ask. It was a royal agent, and it had little to do with him. And since Cheng Chumo said so, he at least said that some things have indeed been explored, such as the ability to end the base camp of such and such a place, and so on.

He went back and forth with Cheng as if guessing riddles, and the latter put on a sleepy appearance, yawning lazily and going out to sleep. So, there were only two people left in this study, him and Luo Chuji.

Although Luo Chuji said that he had made great contributions, he had not been in the Pei Wangfu for a long time, and he still didn't know a lot of things, so he instinctively remained silent at this time. Li Xian pondered what to say to others and how to speak, and he was in a difficult position for a while. Many of the things he did could not be explained, let alone explained, otherwise it would be a big trouble.

So, the two pairs of eyes under the candlelight stared at each other for a while, and Li Xian waved his hand to signal Luo Chuji to rest. And the moment the latter walked to the door and opened the door, he suddenly stopped, and whispered without looking back: "Your Highness, have you ever heard of killing two birds with one stone?" ”

When the door was closed, there was a gust of wind, and the flames on the candlestick suddenly swayed up and down, and a tear flowed down the candle. Li Xian fell into the chair tiredly, and suddenly let out a burst of self-deprecating laughter - in the past, it was only the best to be a rich idler, but now it seems that this rich idler will also have trouble coming to the door.

Killing two birds with one stone, Na Luo is really a keen person! No, I'm afraid that this double eagle is not the other double eagle, and his mind has not been spied on! Closing his eyes, Li Xian gradually fell into a deep sleep, and after a while, he actually let out a burst of snoring.

In the night, a house in Ningrenfang's Lintongjin Canal was particularly quiet, but a house in the northwest corner was a mess. The three of them almost turned over the entire room, but found nothing, and looked at each other for a while before they made up their minds to retreat. Just as they opened the door, there was a sudden sound of crossbows outside.

Several powerful arrows approached the three of them, and when they were caught off guard, each of them was hit by at least one, and their mouths suddenly let out a wail like a trapped beast. However, before they could try to resist, several black shadows appeared next to them, and bright blades suddenly appeared on the necks of the three of them.

"Your master is really not a good master, and you don't see how much effort it took me to get him back. Now I want to get rid of it, but it's too late! ”

A lantern suddenly lit up in the courtyard, and a figure strode forward, glancing at the three men coldly, and finally shouted in a deep voice: "Kill, give their heads to their master tomorrow!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the heads of the three people fell to the ground and blood splattered five steps, and a person immediately rushed up next to the figure.

"Isn't that too much?"
