032 Determination (2nd Update)
The people of Jinyang all know that the Li Mansion has run out of water recently, and I heard that the little son of the Li family who has just become an official has been burned out, and the door has been closed for the past two days, and even people who come out to buy vegetables are rarely seen.
In Li Yi's bedroom, Li Xiang was lying there, Wei Zheng was sitting next to him, and Li Yaozu and Li Yi were in the study in front of him.
Wei Zheng has been here every day for the past few days, one is that he wants to take care of Li Xiang, and the other is that Li Xiang and Li Yaozu said that it would be good to only let Wei Zheng in, because there are some things that he needs Wei Zheng's help.
At this time, Wei Zheng was frowning and thinking about things, but Li Xiang didn't bother him. Since he was rescued after the fire, Li Xiang has not been out of this room, he is thinking about the problem, who is harming him, and what is the purpose. When he woke up that day, he turned on the X chip, trying to find some usable information from it, but unfortunately many of the information in the X chip were summarized by later generations, and there were uncertainties and errors, and there was no information about Li Yaozu's family, after all, their family would not appear at all in many records of later generations, and Li Xiang's crossing of this butterfly may have brought changes to this family.
After Yuwen Chengdu left that day, Li Yaozu quietly came in and talked to Li Xiang for a while, and told Li Xiang what Yuwen Chengdu said. Li Xiang felt that this Yuwen Chengdu was very scary, and from the only clues that did not seem to be clues, he could analyze that this incident was done by the family themselves, and he could judge that he already knew that the family did it, which was very remarkable.
In fact, when Li Xiang was trapped in the cabinet that day, he vaguely felt that his own people did it, and it was hard to imagine who would know so clearly that he would appear in the house at that time, and during that time, Li Xiang was busy in the book workshop, and it was impossible to rest in the house; In addition, who will do it when Yan Mu and Wei Zheng just walked out, and Li Yaozu went out to send it, the time difference is too good, this is a flaw; The most important thing was the two suspicious-looking servants that Li Yaozu encountered on the way to the garden. Putting these together is clearly a rough range.
Li Xiang patted Wei Zheng on the shoulder, pulled him out of his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Okay, sir, don't think about it, instead of us thinking about it here without a clue, let's find a way to let that person show up on his own." ”
Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Close the door and beat the dog, and catch the turtle in the urn." The two looked at each other and smiled, and they could both find the tacit understanding between them.
Li Xiang then asked Wei Zheng to call Li Yaozu and Li Yi in, and the four of them secretly discussed how to arrange it in the bedroom.
Li Fu has been very busy these days, and that day Li Yaozu arranged for him to quietly observe the behavior of all the servants in the family to see if anyone has been more abnormal recently. Li Fu kept walking back and forth at home every day, carefully watching everyone's movements, at first he found that no one was abnormal, and after two days of observation, he found that everyone was very abnormal, making him himself almost collapse, and he didn't find any valuable clues. Today he still wanders around the yard, stopping from time to time to look at this and that. The servants felt that it was Manager Li who had been abnormal lately, and sometimes they would gather together and mumble about him.
Li Shou walked over from the garden and said to Li Fu, "Brother Fu, the master called you over." "Li Shou is the deputy manager, and he and Li Fu can talk very well on weekdays, so they are brothers." I know, you help me pay attention to who's been acting more abnormally lately, I can't figure it out, and the master said that he would definitely find out who harmed the little boy. Li Fu settled Li Shou when he left. Li Shou said yes and went out to buy things, he was responsible for the family's daily purchases.
Li Fu saw Li Yaozu and stood there, Li Yaozu asked, "Have you found anything recently?" ”
"Master, I really didn't find out, those people are hiding when they see me now, and it seems that I am the most abnormal." Li Fu frowned with a pitiful look, which made the listeners can't help but want to laugh.
Li Yaozu waved his hand and said, "Then don't look for it, you will say that the murderer has escaped in the past few days." Remember not to say it deliberately, as if you were saying it unintentionally. Li Yaozu arranged.
"Got it, sir." Li Fu's biggest advantage is obedience, so Li Yaozu let him be a housekeeper for so many years.
"Have you told anyone else about the master's arrangement?" Wei Zheng asked on the side.
"Ah, Mr. Wei, except for what I said to Li Shou just now, no one else said." Li Fu looked at Wei Zheng and said, he thought that this Mr. Wei might have to live in the mansion forever in the future, the little young master was already very important, and this time he saved the little master's life, and he must be a person who can speak in the mansion in the future, so he respects Wei Zheng very much.
"Oh, I know, you go, remember that it was Lord Yuwen who told the master that the murderer had escaped, no matter who he said so, understand." Wei Zheng instructed.
"Got it, Mr. Wei." Li Fu looked at Li Yaozu again and said, "Master has nothing else to arrange, I'll go down first." ”
"Go ahead!" Li Yaozu waved his hand.
"Sir, you say that if we do this, we can really lure that person out?" Li Yaozu asked Wei Zheng.
"Yes, the little master said, this is called paralyzing the enemy." Wei Zheng seemed to see Li Xiang's determined eyes.
"I hope so." Li Yaozu was also helpless.
When Li Fu walked to the door of the backyard again, he saw that Li Shou was still standing there, so he asked, "Why are you still here, aren't you going to buy vegetables?" "I'll wait for someone from the kitchen." Li Shou said with a smile.
"Oh, then you wait, by the way, I heard that General Yuwen found the whereabouts of the murderer, outside the city, and finally said that he ran away." Li Fu seemed to say to Li Xiao unintentionally. He knew that Li Xiao was a big mouth, and he would say it to everyone, so let him pass the word.
"Yes, why do you want to harm our little master, it's really, hey, don't say it, I'm leaving, that person is here." As he spoke, he pointed to a person outside the courtyard gate and walked out. Li Fu also shook his head, what a nerd.
In the main hall of Jinyang Palace, Yang Guang sat on the dragon chair and looked at Li Yi kneeling in the center of the hall. That is, after not seeing each other for a few days, Li Yi lost a lot of weight, and his originally plump cheeks now collapsed deeply as if they had been cut off in two pieces by a knife, and his fat robe swayed from side to side on his body. Yang Guang didn't feel good in his heart, his prince also died of a sudden illness a few years ago, and he was probably like Li Yi, Yang Guang thought.
"Li Yi, get up, give me a seat left and right."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Yi stood up. He has a task today, and when Li Xiang said that he would ask him to find the emperor, he was a little confused. Later, I thought about it for the sake of my son, even if I was afraid of seeing the emperor, I had to go. Li Yi is the kind of person with a cowardly personality, and when Li Yaozu arranged for him to take care of the family's property very early, he was also bullied by the guys below, so when he wanted to see the emperor, he was indeed a little frightened.
"What did you do when you came to see me? How is Li Shizhong's body recovering, I have been missing him a little bit lately. Yang Guang asked Li Yi.
"Your Majesty Xie cares, Xiang'er is very good, he asked me to come this time." As he spoke, he looked at the soldiers and inner supervisors in the hall, and said, "Xiang'er said that the matter is confidential, and I ask Your Majesty to step back and go." ”
"Chengdu stays, everyone else goes out, and no one is allowed to approach within fifty steps outside the palace gate." Yang Guang waved his sleeves, those people left cleanly, and the door of the palace was closed.
"Say it, Li Yi."
"Your Majesty, Xiang'er said that this water incident may be related to Your Majesty." Li Yi's words made the atmosphere tense to the extreme.
"Well, be more detailed." Yang Guang asked with a frown.
"Yes, Xiang'er has been thinking about what happened since he woke up that day, no matter what, this incident was reported by someone in the Li Mansion, and then someone from outside the mansion entered the mansion and set it on fire, as for who it is, it is still being investigated. But why do you do this, there must be a reason, after all, Xiang'er is only ten years old, and he has just become a fifth-grade official, this time it is not certain whether it is for Xiang'er or the Li family, but what is certain is that the person who does this will definitely get benefits from it, so it means that the person who gets the benefits in the end must be related to this incident. And Xiang'er analyzed, this incident happened not long after Xiang'er was crowned official, there are several possibilities, first of all, his official blocked the way of others, and some people also wanted to be a five-grade waiter, but Xiang'er was one step ahead, this possibility is not very large. Li Yi said while thinking about what Li Xiang said. Yang Guang and Yuwen Chengdu both listened carefully.
"And then there are business opponents, Xiang'er has recently invented a lot of things that can make money, which may affect their interests, so they are looking for someone to start, this possibility is still there, but it is not high." Li Yi admired himself himself, and he was worried that he would stammer when he saw His Majesty, but he didn't expect this to be good, and he was still not afraid.
"Well, there is some truth, is there anything else? Go on. Yang Guang nodded and asked.
"Yes, Xiang'er said that it is most likely a conspiracy against His Majesty." Li Yi said again.
……
Yuwen Chengdu with fifty personal soldiers and two imperial doctors followed Li Yi towards the Li Mansion, and arrived outside Jinyang City, Yuwen Chengdu arranged for the soldiers to change into the prepared people's clothes, and after entering the city, those soldiers automatically divided into several groups and disappeared into the crowd, and then Yuwen Chengdu rushed to the Li Mansion with two imperial doctors and Li Yi.
In the hall where the three of Yuwen Chengdu arrived, Li Yi arranged for someone to serve tea, so he got up and went to the back to call Li Yaozu and a few brothers, because this time he came to Yuwen Chengdu with the emperor's message.
After a while, Master Li took his four sons to the front hall, Yuwen Chengdu stood up and gave a salute first, and then shouted solemnly, "There is a holy oracle." ”
Old Master Li, father and son, five and two imperial doctors took their clothes and knelt down, shouting "receive the holy message"
"Your Majesty said: 'Li Aiqing is my minister of the humerus, this time the matter must be investigated, and two other imperial doctors will go to see, I don't want him to have any problems, you have to take care of him for me.'" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Five replied.
"Master Li and a few young masters, please get up"
Everyone stood up, and the two imperial doctors said, "Let's go and take a look at Li Gongzi's condition first." ”
"Please" Li Yaozu led a few people towards Li Yi's courtyard.
"You're saying it's not sure yet?"
"No, but I heard them say today that they haven't checked anymore, and Yuwen Chengdu said that everyone has run away."
"Be careful, they might be waiting."
"Well, our young master said to wait and see, I will be able to pass on the news as soon as there is news."
"Be careful not to be noticed."
"Yes, I'll go first."
In a meat shop in the West Market, two people finished the conversation, one hurriedly took some meat and left, the other closed the door, turned back to the back room and said, "Sir, the person is gone." ”
Out of the room came a middle-aged man in his forties, thin, not tall, with no characteristics, and anyone who looked like a person who would disappear in a pile of people.
"Okay, remember, when things are done, there is no room for survival." Cold, lifeless words.
"Got it!" The man replied.
"Imperial Doctor, I wonder how my grandson is doing?" Li Yaozu asked anxiously.
The imperial doctor waved his hand and made a gesture to go outside, so a group of people all went outside, only Wei Zheng was accompanied by Li Xiang inside, he stretched out his hand, and there was an extra pill in his hand.
"I'm not optimistic, it's up to today, if I don't cough up blood today, then it's fine, if I cough up blood, I will ...... in two days Hey, there's nothing I can do about it. The two imperial physicians discussed with each other and said.
"Ahh My Xiang'er. Li Yi fainted again.
