Chapter 171: The Storm is Undecided

Li Nan lay on the ground and looked at Li Hong blankly.

Li Hong in his impression has always been cowardly and timid, why is he suddenly tough now? He couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't understand why the nerd he had been able to scare before was so popular today?

However, Li Nan didn't have time to think about it, Xue Xiu's long knife cut a beautiful arc in the air, and then cut Li Nan's neck heavily.

Li Nan's head rolled on the ground several times before it stopped, but those two eyes were still wide open, as if he didn't believe that he would die.

The Su family next to them were shocked, a child of the clan who they were like a guest of honor, just screamed for their lives, and they didn't even let out a shout.

Li Hong looked at Li Nan's corpse coldly: "As a disciple of the clan, Li Nan actually colluded with the Su family to collude with the grassland barbarians and wanted to create chaos in Luoyang City. Xue Xiu, led people to copy the Su family, and everyone in the Su family was decided! โ€

The head of the Su family collapsed on the ground when he heard this, he crawled to Li Hong's side and hugged Li Hong's leg and said, "Your Highness has misunderstood, a certain family has always been very innocent, how can it collude with other races." Ask Your Highness for mercy, let me wait, hundreds of people in the Su family, please be merciful! โ€

Li Hong looked down at his weeping and asked, "If Liu Hao in heaven and earth begged you like this, would you let him go?" has no grievances with you, and actually framed you wantonly in the city. Liu Hao is a member of the four grades of this dynasty, and he is the general of Dingyuan who was personally appointed by his father. Do you think you deserve to be condemned? Liu Hao has a very good saying, I'll give it to you now, if you don't die, you won't die! โ€

The head of the Su family just kept crying and kowtowing. He is really repentant now, why provoke Liu Hao if he has nothing to do, now it's okay, Liu Hao hasn't lost a single hair, and his whole family will be killed.

Xue Xiu has been very familiar with this industry after the last rehearsal of the house. He instructed several teams of people to catch all the people from the Su family, and then Xue Xiu led people into the backyard by himself, and without the identification of the Su family, a group of soldiers dug up in the courtyard of the Su family.

After the arrangement, Xue Xiu came to the courtyard where Li Nan lived according to Li Hong's explanation and said: "Search thoroughly to see if there is any contraband." โ€

When Li Hong came, the courtyard was full of gifts that Li Nan had received in the past few days. He said with a smile: "It's good to be a messenger, look at so many gifts, I'm afraid he won't be able to buy it for ten years." โ€

Xue Xiu smiled so much that her mouth couldn't close her mouth: "Your Highness, it's a bumper harvest." I didn't expect that this Su family's reputation was not obvious, and they actually had so much money. This time, does Jin Wuwei have to take a little? โ€

Li Hong dragged him to a secluded place and whispered, "Sister-in-law, did you say that killing the Su family was too ruthless?" โ€

Xue Xiu took off his helmet and wiped the sweat on his head: "Why are you still like this, a small merchant family, kill it." The following crimes are capital offenses. Can't bear it? โ€

Li Hong nodded: "What if only the people in the main room are killed?" If there is nothing on the side, let it go. โ€

Xue Xiu smiled and said, "You are the prince, you have the final say." There is nothing to be kind to a woman now, and if you do this when you ascend to a high position in the future, I am afraid that you will suffer. โ€

As the two were talking, a soldier ran over: "Your Highness Bing, I found a letter trading with the grassland people, as well as a map of Luoyang City's defense, please go and check it." โ€

When Li Hong saw the so-called Luoyang City defense map, he almost laughed out loud.

Li Hong looked at this picture, and when he closed his eyes, he could think of what this picture was about, because this was originally what Liu Hao asked him to draw a few days ago. The handwriting on it is his Li Hong's.

Xue Xiu glanced at it, then tilted his head to look at Li Hong and said, "Isn't this too unsophisticated?" The handwriting is entirely yours. Fortunately, you are here, and fortunately, it is so-and-so who copied the house. If you were someone else, you wouldn't be arrested. โ€

Li Hong rolled his eyes: "Now I know why I asked you to only kill the people in the main room." I didn't expect that a certain uncle would be so improvised. There are so many contraband, can you use it like this? Okay, this picture has been taken away, you guys look at it, half of it belongs to Li Jie, now Luoyang is building roads, although construction has just started, but we can do our best. Building roads and bridges is a good deed for the benefit of one party, and we must resolutely support it. โ€

Xue Xiu looked at Li Hong suspiciously: "What about the other merchants?" Whatever? โ€

Li Hong smiled: "You don't have to kill them, they will obediently admit their mistakes." No one wants contraband in their home. Although anyone with a discerning eye knows that this matter was framed, they can't say it. Rebellion can be big or small, and no one will make themselves uncomfortable. โ€

Before it was dark, the news about Li Nan's killing and the destruction of the Su family in Luoyang City had already spread to everyone in the streets and alleys. Although Liu Hao didn't make a move, many people know that everything Li Hong did was instructed by Liu Hao. Although they disagreed with Li Hong's approach, no one would speak out against it, the main reason was that Li Nan blatantly asked for bribes.

The officials and high-ranking officials in Luoyang City naturally don't need to deal with Li Nan, but those petty officials and some people who want to talk to King Shou are racking their brains to think about what gifts to give to attract King Shou's attention. turned out to be good, the gifts they had worked so hard to choose were accepted by Li Hong in full and accepted as Li Nan's stolen money.

Just when the streets and alleys were discussing the "news" of the demise of the Su family, I don't know when a notice was posted at the door of the workshop, which introduced in detail the various evil deeds of the Su family, and even the process of colluding with foreign clans was restored on the notice as it was. Then he also said that Li Nan was not a member of the clan, but as a result, he hooked up with Queen Shou and became a member of the clan, and he openly asked for bribes everywhere he went, and even spoke ill of Li Hong several times.

As soon as the notice came out, the entire Luoyang City was boiling. No one has mentioned the affairs of the Su family anymore, everyone is discussing things about Li Nan, how can a street gangster become a member of the royal clan, is it because of his surname Li? Li Hong has only been the crown prince for a few months, and before Li Nan spoke disrespectfully to the prince, no one cares about the people of the clan?

This kind of discussion is not only used as a talking point in the mouths of the common people for entertainment, but even those officials who had befriended Li Nan before are also afraid. Now that the words on the notice have spread, it is useless to tear it down. And this matter will definitely reach His Majesty, and then his career will be over. The name Li Nan, on this night, I don't know how many people cursed and abused.

After Li Jie sat in the study and read a torn out notice, he couldn't help but clap his hands and exclaimed: "Okay! Zhicai's methods are becoming more and more sophisticated, as soon as this notice comes out, it not only frees himself from the accusations and abuse of the whole city, but also confirms the charges of the Su family and Li Nan, and what is even more commendable is that through Li Nan's life experience, King Shou is also involved, no matter whether His Majesty cares or not, this is a thorn, so that His Majesty will think of King Shou in the future. โ€

After a pause, Li Jie said to himself: "It's just that those officials and merchants who follow the Su family are shouting, and they attack Zhicai without knowing it, and now I know how powerful this kid is." The wind is light, and everything is stable. โ€

In heaven and earth, Xiao Shiyi Lang and Chen Shimei laughed at each other.

Chen Shimei said proudly: "Look, Zhicai's means are clever, right?" It seems to be a critical situation, but he didn't even show his face, and he actually solved it like this, and he stayed out of the matter, what a good means! โ€

Xiao Shiyi Lang gritted his teeth: "Now, it's time for me to take revenge." Those who came to heaven and earth to make trouble, all went to the yamen to complain, and there were also merchants who attacked Zhicai, and used the power of the chamber of commerce to bring them down. Regret going, and see who will dare to be rude to our brothers in the future. โ€

Chen Shimei nodded: "Also, you and I will send a message to Chang'an separately, so that Your Majesty can see what kind of goods his good son Shouwang is." โ€

Xiao Shiyi Lang agreed: "It has to be like this, I think that Li Nan is a relative of the emperor, who knows that he is a wild species that pops out of the crack in the stone." Later, I will write a letter to Chang'an, saying that I was beaten by Li Nan, hum! โ€

Chen Shimei looked at him with tears and laughter: "If that's the case, then so-and-so also said that he was beaten, hehe!" โ€

The two sinister people were plotting to force their elders to make a move, but Wang Wan's family in the city was bursting with laughter. Yan Zhenqing, Du Fu, Yang Xuanjian and other officials who had a close personal relationship with Liu Hao gathered together to discuss this matter.

Wang Wan shook the folding fan and said slowly: "Zhicai has been silent since the beginning of this matter, ignoring the affairs of the outside world. After two or three days of brewing, it hit the opponent's seven inches directly. Especially the notice that has just been posted, it is really amazing to be amazed. I understood why Zhicai was stubbornly guarding the bookstore at that time, and even his own net worth was pressed. The bookstore is really a great weapon for my Datang. โ€

Yan Zhenqing nodded and said: "When I pretended to turn against Zhicai before, I was still hesitating about how Zhicai would deal with things, but I didn't expect Prince Li Hong to be alone and successfully break the situation." Zhicai had said before that after the current situation, when His Majesty came to Luoyang, everything would be settled, and the position of the crown prince belonged to Prince Li Hong, and no one could take it away. โ€

When Yang Xuanjun heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "Can Zhicai have a good strategy?" Now the situation of Prince Li Hong is not very good. โ€

Yan Zhenqing shook his head: "Zhicai didn't say it, he only said that he had a foolproof plan that no one in the world would refuse, everyone, I'll just wait and see." โ€

"That's right! See! โ€

On the roof of a square in the west of the city, Lin Bing, dressed in black, asked the person next to him in a low voice: "Is the Wang family's spy in this courtyard?" โ€

A man in black next to him nodded and said, "It's all inside, and it's planning how to attack heaven and earth." โ€

Lin Bing tied the masked black cloth and said coldly: "Kill them all, not a single one will be left!" โ€
