Xu Jingzong was working in the secret room in the East Palace, and suddenly a bell rang, Xu Jingzong searched for it, and when he arrived at a bamboo tube, he took down the bamboo tube, and after opening it, he saw a portrait inside, and there was a description:

"Someone! Quickly send the portrait of this person to the major dark piles in the Guanzhong area, and closely monitor the person's movements! Also, quickly find out the details of this person. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Yes!" After Xu Jingzong finished arranging the task, he immediately ran to see Li Jiancheng:

"Your Highness, Your Highness! Rose secretly reported that this person was accompanied by the eldest grandson Wuji and entered Li Shimin's study and talked for a long time. Li Jiancheng listened:

"Now we have just reached a deal with Qilu, and when we are about to establish a snow sugar workshop in Shiyan, we have appeared by Li Shimin's side, suspicious!" Li Jiancheng glanced at Xu Jingzong, Xu Jingzong didn't speak, and had been waiting for Li Jiancheng's order:

"Xu Jingzong!"

"The minister is here!"

"Immediately dispatch competent men to closely monitor this person's movements, and once he leaves Chang'an City, immediately capture him alive and secretly escort him to me."

"Yes!" Zuo Youxian discussed with Li Shimin in the Qin Palace, and Zuo Youxian personally went to Jiangling to contact, and all the expenses were paid by Li Shimin, Zuo Youxian got Li Shimin's promise, and was happy in his heart, after coming out of the Qin Palace, he walked directly to the east gate of Chang'an with his cronies Zuo Asi, but he didn't know that there was already someone behind him:

"My lord, where are we going now?"

"Don't call you an adult anymore, now that we are in Li Tang's territory, if we want to hide people's eyes, let's call us master!"

"Yes! Sir, where are we going now? ”

"Go to Tongguan first, and after returning to Luoyang, transfer from the Yellow River crossing to the Yangtze River to Jiangling. It's going to be a good show. Zuo Youxian thought that he was going to succeed in his conspiracy again, and Zuo Youxian didn't know how good his mood was. On the pipeline to Tongguan, Zuo Youxian and Zuo Ah Si rode horses on the road and galloped, and the dusty sound of horses' hooves along the way made the people who were rushing couldn't help but turn their heads to watch, but just after seeing the figures, those knights galloped in front of them, and the flying dust suddenly hit the people on their heads and faces, causing countless curses, but Zuo Youxian and Zuo Ah Si didn't care about it at all, and they were already far away when others jumped and scolded. The sun in the sky was as hot as a fire, Zuo Youxian and Zuo Ah Si were sweating all over their heads, and a tea shed appeared on the pipeline not far away, where a group of merchants were drinking tea slowly. The tea shed is run by an elderly couple in their fifties, who are diligently pouring water and delivering snacks to the guests in the tea shed. If someone wants to eat, Zuo Ah Si looked at it, only felt as if there was a fire in his throat, and his stomach was also a little hungry, so he strangled Ma:

"Sir! It's a hot day, and it's almost noon, so why don't we have a cup of tea here and a snack on our way! Zuo Youxian looked at the sun in the sky and nodded. Zuo Ah Si quickly dismounted and found a clean table:

"Master, there is no one at this table!" Zuo Youxian dismounted and put the old man's score. Sit at the table. An old man of fifty years old came forward:

"Ahh Two guest officers, what do you want to eat? Zuo Youxian replied softly:

"Hmmm! Let's start with a pot of tea. In addition, there are three plates of small snacks and a few side dishes. Hurry up, we've got to go! ”

"Let's have a pot of tea first. In addition, there are three plates of small snacks and a few side dishes. Hurry up, we still have to hurry! Zuo Ah Si also learned to shout like those who saw the master's side before. Zuo Youxian smiled and didn't say anything! A short time later, an old woman in her fifties brought a pot of tea and three plates of small snacks.

"Two guest officers, this snack is easy to make, wait a minute!" Zuo Youxian nodded, and glanced at Zuo Ah Si, and Zuo Ah Si immediately understood. He handed the old woman a piece of loose silver.

"Ahh Thank you, thank you, thank you! The old woman went away with a thousand thanks. Zuo Ah Si poured a cup of tea for Zuo Youxian first.

"Sir! Drink tea! "Zuo Ah Si is smart and knows how to change his role at any time, so Zuo Youxian likes him. Zuo Youxian picked up the teacup and took a sip, although it was the tea powder used by the people, but because of his thirst, it still tasted different in his mouth. After a few sips, I picked up another snack and tasted it.

"Hmmm! It tastes good, Ah Si, you can taste it too! ”

"Yes, sir!" Zuo Ah Si is not as gentle as Zuo Youxian, he directly picked up two snacks with both hands and ate them, his cheeks were bulging, looking at Zuo Ah Si's appearance, Zuo Youxian was amused in his heart.

"Shopkeeper, when will our meal arrive!"

"No, because you're leaving soon." Zuo Youxian was about to get angry, and suddenly felt dizzy in his head, and Zuo Ah Si was about to hold Zuo Youxian, but suddenly he also fell. The fifty-year-old man instructed the other tea guests:

"Someone! Help them down and put them in the wagon, and let no one notice, and the others clean the place without leaving any traces. So saying, he also got into a carriage.

"Ahh Zuo Youxian was sleeping soundly, and a bowl of cold water woke him up.

"What is this place?" Zuo Youxian found himself in a dungeon, his limbs tied.

"Oops! Unexpectedly, the main palace was able to meet Zuo Xiangguo here. What an honor! Zuo Youxian looked at the face of the person who spoke to him. There was great horror in my heart.

"You...... Are you Li Jiancheng!? Li Jiancheng laughed:

"Zuo Xiangguo is worthy of being a famous wise man in Jianghuai, the wise trust of King Wu Fugong Tuo Wangye, he immediately saw the identity of this palace, and this palace can be seen today, it is really a blessing for three lives! I just don't know what Zuo Xiangguo came to my country for, what are his intentions!? Zuo Youxian looked at Li Jiancheng in horror:

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince laughed, he used to be a Taoist in Xia, but he heard that there have been many times when Taishang Laojun appeared here, so he brought disciples to visit Laojun's true works in Xia. So ......" Li Jiancheng clapped his hands happily when he heard Zuo Youxian's words:

"Oops! Wonderful, really wonderful. Zuo Xiangguo is worthy of being an old oilman who has been in the officialdom for many years. ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, what the villain said is true." Zuo Youxian knew that if Li Jiancheng knew what he had done, then his life would not be saved. So a strong denial. Of course, Li Jiancheng knew that Zuo Youxian would not admit it, and after catching Zuo Youxian, he discussed it with Xu Jingzong:

"Lord Xu! Has this person been identified? ”

"His Royal Highness Qiqi, according to our reliable intelligence, this person was originally a Taoist priest who did chores in the Changsha Fire Palace, and later went out to travel with Fu Gong Tuo when he met him, and he was a powerful subordinate under Wu Wang Fu Gong Tuo, Fu Gong Tuo was able to ascend the throne as King Wu, this person is indispensable, but there is a little bit of strangeness, according to our ambush in Jianghuai's hidden stake, this person left Jianghuai after Fu Gong Tuo ascended the throne, and Qilu, Mayi, and Turkic areas have appeared in his figure, and finally appeared in Luoyang, Beichen thought, This person must be related to the salt shortage incident in Guanzhong. Li Jiancheng listened to Xu Jingzong's narration and nodded.

"Lord Xu, your analysis is very reasonable. Moreover, there must be something wrong with this person appearing here when we were about to establish a snow sugar workshop in the Jiangling area, and also appearing in the palace of the King of Qin. Well! Xu Qing! After listening to your narration, this palace thinks that this person is quite ambitious, and it is considered that he has some ability to become a minister of the country by an ordinary Taoist priest, and he can say that he can move so many local forces to oppose our dynasty It shows that his strategy is outstanding. You'll see if we can pull this guy over. ”

"Your Royal Highness is really a treasure of gold, the humble ministers admire, but the hearts of the people are unpredictable, and the humble ministers are not easy to say!"

"Lord Xu! Do you think this is okay for this palace? Li Jiancheng muttered softly in Xu Jingzong's ear.

"Ahh It seems that Lord Zuo is unwilling to tell the truth, Lord Xu, what do you think this father should do? Xu Jingzong replied:

"Your Highness, according to the law, anyone who spies on the secrets of the imperial court from an enemy country will be executed by Ling Chi." Zuo Siyi, who was tied next to Zuo Youxian, trembled with fright when he heard that Ling Chi was going to be executed, and a peculiar smell emanated. It turned out that Zuo Ah Si peed his pants.

"Ahh Your Highness, the villain is not a spy! The villain doesn't want to die! I beg Your Highness to spare the villain! Li Jiancheng laughed:

"Oh! You say you're not a spy, so you say! What are you doing in Chang'an? ”

"I say, I say it all! I turned out to be a little apprentice of Zuo Xiangguo, and later Zuo Xiangguo became an official, so I came to his side as an errand. We came this time to contact King Qin to inquire about the news, because our Lord Xiangguo and Ning Changzhen, the leader of the Lingnan slang, were old acquaintances, and Ning Changzhen's son came to contact us Xiangguo and said that he was willing to destroy the snow sugar workshop for us, just to ask what price to give? Our Xiangguo wanted King Qin to pay this money, so he came here to find King Qin, and this salt shortage in Guanzhong was also caused by our Xiangguo. I've said it all, let me go! Zuo Ah Si cried. Li Jiancheng listened to Zuo Asi's narration, and sighed in his heart: "What a talent, I'm afraid that even Su Qin and Zhang Yi are alive." Li Jiancheng instructed Xu Jingzong:

"Master Xu, put Zuo Ah Si down, take strict care of him, and don't let anyone know that he is here." Xu Jingzong obeyed Li Jiancheng's order, freed Zuo Ah Si, and imprisoned him in the dungeon. Li Jiancheng walked towards Zuo Youxian with a gloomy face, Zuo Youxian only felt a cold air coming towards him, and he didn't know that there was a sudden panic in his heart.

"Lord Xu! This palace is really merciful in my heart, it's a pity that such a talent can't be used by me, but this palace is unwilling to kill talents, so it's better to do it! Recently, my father has been asking Qihui Dao Chang to refine the elixir of immortality, and this palace feels that it is better to let Lord Zuo test the new medicine, if Qihui Dao Chang really refines the elixir of immortality, this palace can be regarded as accumulating a merit. It's also forgotten, but it's hard to be filial piety to the palace. Someone! Put Lord Zuo down, escort him to Daoist Qihui, and let the Lord test the medicine for his father. Zuo Youxian heard that Li Jiancheng wanted to let him test the medicine for Li Yuan. Panicking, Zuo Youxian's original master in the Fire Palace made himself delirious because of refining the elixir of life and testing the medicine himself, and finally went crazy and died. Zuo You Xianfang knew that there was no such thing as immortality in the world.

"Nope! Your Highness, the villain does not go, the villain does not go. Li Jiancheng ignored Zuo Youxian's crying, and after directing the guards to knock Zuo Youxian unconscious, he was secretly escorted to Louguan. Zuo Youxian was woken up again, and saw that in the underground secret room, flashing lights and smoke set off the gloomy atmosphere, as if he was in the underworld, and the shouts of the drug testers were as eerie as the ghosts crying in hell. Daoist Guan Qihui prayed in front of an incense burner, and there were several cells next to it, and in the cells there were several yellow-faced and thin-skinned people looking at Zuo Youxian with helpless eyes. Li Jiancheng also looked at Zuo Youxian with a wicked smile. Daoist Qihui asked two sturdy Dao boys to pull one out of the cage:

"Nope! I don't eat, I don't eat! ”

"Hey! This is the elixir! You have eaten the immortal, come! Feed him! Under Qi Hui's command, two sturdy Dao boys fed the pill into the man's mouth, and poured a large bowl of water into it, and after the man finished taking the medicine, he immediately convulsed, foamed at the mouth, screamed, and finally curled up in a ball and died. Daoist Qihui felt the man's pulse.

"Hey! Another one died. It may be that the body is too weak. Li Jiancheng said loudly:

"Don't be sorry for the Daoist, these people should be unblessed, huh! This palace has brought a strong one to the Taoist today, this person is the Lord Xiangguo under the Duke of Wu Wangfu Gongtuo, he is a rich and noble person, and he is physically strong, and he used to be a cultivator, and he should be able to test the medicinal effect. Daoist Qihui looked at Zuo Youxian like an animal:

"Good! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right. Fellow Daoists, you can take this medicine! If the drug test is successful, Brother Dao will definitely be able to ascend to the immortal realm as soon as possible. Please! As he spoke, he was about to put the pill into Zuo Youxian's mouth, and Zuo Youxian shook his head desperately and struggled.

"Nope! Don't, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince spares your life! You can do whatever you want Wechen. ”
