Xiao Tianding stood on the top of the mountain with his hands behind his back. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Do you know why I gave you such an important position in the ministry? He also named you the king of Hubei. ”

Xiao Yuanping lowered his head and didn't speak, and he didn't know what to say.

"Because your mother's wish before her death is to let you two brothers live in peace and stability away from the imperial power, but look at what you have done, forming a party for personal gain, digging iron ore to make weapons without permission, and still being in the position of the prince to tell me what is good about you."

Xiao Yuanping raised his head and snorted coldly.

"Anyway, he is your eldest son, the position of the crown prince, it should have been his, by the way, and the kid behind you."

Xiao Tianding saw that his son was so obsessed and finally couldn't help but wave his sleeves.

"Take it all back, and I'll send it down."

The Praetorian guards in the back swarmed up, and soon, they were gone.

"Father-in-law Gao."

"The minions are here."

"Spread my will, the five princes opened the mine without permission, and the crime is unforgivable, let the prince watch it."

"Old slave, understand, it's just that you are still alive to deal with the prince, and it is not the prince's turn to do this, which is not in line with the ancestral etiquette."

Xiao Tianding's eyes were about to erupt with fire,

"Where do you come from so much today? If you are told to do it, you will do it. ”

Gao Gonggong hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the old slave of atonement knows."

Xiao Tianding waved his hand tiredly.

"You all stand down, Xiaotian stays."

"Isn't it a little too cruel for me to do it?"

Li Tian didn't know how to persuade him, this powerful old man seemed to have become an ordinary father at this moment.

Li Tian sighed: "I don't know how to persuade you, but there is one way, he chose it himself, and if he chose it, he didn't regret it, I believe that your prince's temper should not kill him." ”

Xiao Tianding seemed to have made up his mind.

"No, what you just said is right, the path was chosen by yourself, there is no regret at all, this time I will not be merciful anymore, I want to use actions to tell them, what should be done and what should not be done? Honestly assisting the prince to stabilize the country is the most important thing. ”

Li Tian's heart also jumped, this sentence is equivalent to sentencing Xiao Yuanping to death, but it makes sense to think about what he should do in turn, if he doesn't kill this, then the battle for imperial power in the future will become out of control.

"Alright, let's go down and leave early tomorrow morning."

Li Tian felt that the old man's back had become lonely, and when he made up his mind, he must have been miserable in his heart as if he were singing his flesh.

……

At night, the entire mansion seemed to be extremely quiet, only the light in Qian Fang's study was still on, and there were two heavily armed guards guarding the door.

Suddenly, a black shadow fell from the sky, and the two guards were also very alert, and immediately took up their weapons.

"Who's coming? No, Your Majesty's Imperial Decree, you can't get a step closer to here. ”

But the man in black continued on as if he hadn't heard.

The two guards didn't talk to him, picked up the knife in their hand and slashed it.

It's just that the man in black shot too fast, and in an instant, the two guards were cut throats and fell to the ground, and there was only a trace of blood if they didn't collect it.

"I can't help myself." After speaking, he could open the door and swagger in.

Qian Fang turned his back to him.

"The time has come for the master to send you to test me, right?"

The man in black sneered.

"I didn't expect you to be quite self-aware."

"Ask you, how is my son?"

"Don't worry, you'll meet him on the way to Huangquan."

"I knew it." Qian Fang's tone was indifferent, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

The man in black obviously didn't want to talk nonsense with him, and I killed him with a single stab.

Then I walked away.

I knew that I wouldn't take this road, this was the last thought in Qian Fang's heart.

……

Early the next morning, Li Tian was still meeting with Zhou and there were two beautiful girls lying next to him, and after being busy for many days, Li Tian naturally wanted to kill the Quartet at night.

There was a knock on the door.

"Who? How early, Xiao Yun slowly opened her eyes. ”

Li Tian sat up gently: "You guys sleep for a while, I'll open the door." ”

opened the door, Li Tian saw Xiao Yong looking in a hurry, tired and sweating profusely.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Uncle, uncle." As a result, he didn't say a word for a long time.

Li Tian poured a glass of water, and Xiao Yong took the cup and drank it.

"Uncle Qian Fang, Qian Laishun father and son are dead."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was a big hit.

Li Tianyi was frightened and drowsy: "What did you say, how did they die?" ”

"Someone cut his throat with a sharp weapon."

"Take me to see it."

When he came to the house, everything in it was neat, Qian Fang was spread out on the chair, his pupils dilated, which was already a sign of long-term death, and there was a small wound on his neck, which was fatally stabbed.

"When did he die?"

A lean man ran up.

"If you go back to your lordship, according to my speculation, it should be three or four hours, you see that he will be gone."

Li Tian nodded and looked at Xiao Yong: "What do you think?" ”

"I think the perpetrator is a master, and it is not easy to kill two people in the huge county government here, and there are two corpses of guards outside the door, which proves that this person is a master among masters."

Li Tian shook his head: "This person is not only a master but also not a person from the Central Plains, you see that the wound on his neck is too small, it really doesn't look like it was caused by the Central Plains weapon." ”

"I'm going to lock down the whole city now, and I'll definitely arrest him back."

Li Tian shook his head: "It's useless, he also said just now, at least three or four hours of death, this time is enough to escape from the city, the city wall is useless for masters." ”

"What then? Did you just let those thieves run away? ”

Li Tian's eyes condensed slightly, and he quickly picked up the book on the table, and quickly rummaged through it, and sure enough, a small note was sandwiched inside.

Ten miles of peach blossoms,

The loess is fragrant.

Into the mortal dust,

Once in a dream.

Li Tian's brows furrowed deeply: "It's this poem, Xu Bingsheng last time, there should be some necessary connection between the two this time, or they are serving the same person, and now that the matter is revealed, it is natural to kill them." ”

Li Tian put away the note: "Sort it out here, you go with me to see your grandfather." ”

Xiao Tianding was also very angry when he learned about this, and immediately sent a document to arrest an assassin who provided clues throughout the country, with a reward of 100 taels, and successfully captured the assassin with a bounty of 1,000 taels, and then deployed resources from nearby to help the people on both sides of the mountain rebuild their homes, and Xiao Yong was left behind to be responsible for the mining of iron ore.

The group finally returned to the capital after a month-and-a-half-long trip, not counting travel, and Xiao Yuanping was hanged because of the great rebellion.
