Yongyangfang belongs to Chang'an County, so this official and these officials are naturally from the county government of Chang'an County.

Li Hong frowned slightly when he saw this group of people, he designed to arrest Wu Er today It was a secret operation, and now he actually alarmed the Chang'an County Yamen, he is the prince, he can let them leave with a word, and he can keep it secret, but the taxes of the east and west cities will go through the Yamen of Chang'an County and Wannian County, and then hand over to the household department, and the problem of embezzlement of commercial taxes cannot be denied that there will be problems in this link, and now if the people in the Yamen of Chang'an County know that Wu Er is dead, and he is still dead in front of him, It's hard to assume that some of them will guess a little bit of the clue.

It's just that seeing that the official and the group of officials have already walked halfway up the mountain, Li Hong didn't have time to come up with any countermeasures, so he could only say to Yan Zhuang, "You go down and deal with it!" ”

Yan Zhuang knew the prince's thoughts, so he bowed down to receive the order and walked down the hillside.

"You're from Chang'an County?" Yan Zhuang walked halfway up the mountain and asked the official of the Chang'an County Ya who came to him.

This official is over forty years old, not tall, and still very thin, but his eyes are shining, and there is a little more fortitude between his expectations, and he knows at a glance that he is an upright person. He just glanced at Yan Zhuang and couldn't help but exclaim, "Huh! Are you Yan Jialing? ”

Yan Zhuang has been in the East Palace for ten years, and when Li Hong was still young, everything in the East Palace was solved by him. Therefore, there is no one who is an official in Chang'an City who does not know him. Now that he was recognized by the other party, Yan Zhuang no longer concealed it, and said in a flat tone, "Yes, I am Yan Zhuang, are you?" ”

"King Bo Luobin, the head of Chang'an County, has seen Yan Jialing!" The official said.

Yan Zhuang was very humble in front of the crown prince Li Hong, but no matter how he said it, he was also a dignified third-grade master, so naturally he would not be inferior in front of a seventh-grade little master, so he asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?" ”

King Luo Bin replied without humility or arrogance, "When a servant was inspecting the neighborhood, he found a hooligan brawl, and it happened that the lower official was nearby, so he rushed over to take a look. ”

"You can take them." Yan Zhuang pointed to the Axe Gang and Snake Gang in the woodland and said, "As for the people on the hillside, you don't have to worry about it. ”

Since the prince's family orders have all appeared here, and there are more than a dozen sturdy soldiers guarding the hillside, how can a slightly smarter person not know who the person on the hillside is?

If he had met an opportunistic official who was good at climbing the dragon and the phoenix, it is estimated that he would have rushed forward to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, because this was a good opportunity to show his loyalty. But when King Luo Bin heard Yan Zhuang say this, he just glanced up at Li Hong on the hillside, bowed to him slightly, and left.

"Wait a minute!" Just as Luo Bin Wang was about to turn around and leave, Chen Gong suddenly strode down and said to him, "Please Master Luo Bo go uphill for a while." ”

Yan Zhuang was puzzled that the prince had just asked him to send this Chang'an County Ya Master Bo away, why did he want to see him now? He could only move his puzzled gaze to Chen Gong, who shook his head slightly to indicate that he didn't know.

When King Luo Bin heard that the crown prince was going to see him, he stopped, gave a few instructions to the officials beside him, and followed Chen Gong up the hill.

At first, Li Hong also wanted to send the official from Chang'an County away, and then dispose of Wu Er's body, preparing to settle this matter, and was not ready to start investigating the tax problem of the eastern and western cities from this aspect. However, when he heard the words "King Bo Luobin, the Yalord of Chang'an County" coming from the bottom of the hillside, his body was shocked, and he changed his mind.

Who is Luo Bing Wang? It is estimated that the entire Tang Dynasty who knows King Luo Bin will say that he is a talented man and the master of Chang'an County. Only Li Hong knows that King Luo Bin is not just a talented man and a master, he is also a minister and a person loyal to Li Tang.

"The pseudo-Linchao Wu clan is not harmonious, and the earth is cold and cold. In the past, Taizong was under Chen, and he once served with a change of clothes. It's the late season, and the Spring Palace is filthy..."Li Hong can read his "Essay on Martial Arts" with his eyes closed!

Therefore, after Li Hong knew that the lord of Chang'an County in front of him was King Luo Bin, he didn't want to settle the matter of continuing to investigate the taxes of the eastern and western cities through Wu Er, but he had a better attention in his heart.

King Luo Bin walked up the hill with Chen Gong, and when he saw Li Hong, he saluted him and said, "King Bo Luo Bin, the lord of Chang'an County, has seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

"No need to be polite!" Li Hong nodded slightly, and asked King Luo Bin, "Master Luo, do you know what happened to be lonely here?" ”

"I don't know." King Luo Bin replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"To investigate the case!" Li Hong said succinctly.

"Investigating the case?" King Luo Bin was puzzled, and couldn't help but move his gaze to Wu Er, who had fallen to the ground and was already dead, and asked puzzledly, "Your Highness killed him?" ”

"He didn't kill alone, he committed suicide." Li Hong said.

"What case does Your Highness want to investigate, and you need to force someone to commit suicide?" Luo Bingwang looked at Li Hong and asked.

"The embezzled commercial tax in the eastern and western cities." Li Hong said bluntly. He was not prepared to hide it from King Luo Bin, because he knew what kind of person King Luo Bin was, otherwise he would not change his opinion on King Luo Bin.

"This—" King Luo Bin muttered, "Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sure he has something to do with him?" ”

As the head of a county office, the money and grain of each county government can only be handed over after the registration and inventory of the main book, and Luo Binwang, as the head of the Chang'an County government, is subordinate to Chang'an County, when the West City tax is handed over to the household department, all of them must go through his registration and inventory. It's just that he has just arrived in Chang'an County and has not been in charge of official affairs for less than ten days, and he has not yet taken over this official business, so when he heard Li Hong say this, he became even more curious.

"If Master Luo wants, he can investigate with Gu." Li Hong seduced. As long as Luo Bingwang can sincerely investigate with him, his plan can be smoother.

Luo Bingwang did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment before making a decision. He glanced at the dead Wu Er again, and asked with some regret, "This person is already dead, presumably His Highness didn't get any useful news from him, right?" ”

Seeing that Luo Bingwang agreed to investigate with him, Li Hong was overjoyed, so he smiled and said, "It's a bit difficult to make a dead person speak, and you can use a dead person to speak more than a living person, and I don't think it's difficult." ”

"Your Highness has already paid attention to the difficulty?" Luo Bingwang asked in surprise.

Li Hong nodded slightly and said, "Wu Er is dead, but there are only a few of us who know that Wu Er is dead, as long as we don't say it, who can know that he is dead?" Since he is not dead, we are going to take him to Chang'an County for interrogation, what do you say the people who support him will do when they hear the news? ”

"One, kill people and kill people. Second, find a way to rescue him. King Luo Bing replied.

"No matter who wants to kill people and kill people, or find a way to rescue Wu Er, as long as someone pays attention to Wu Er, don't we have what we want?" Li Honghan said with a smile.

After hearing this, Luo Bingwang's eyes lit up, and he nodded slightly, "Wonderful! ”

"Since Luo Zhubo also thinks it is feasible, Lone will leave this matter to you." Li Hong said to King Luo Bin, "Of course, Lone will also ask Yan Zhuang to assist you. ”

King Luo Bin bowed down to receive the order, and replied very simply, "Weichen takes the order!" ”

"You guys stay and handle this matter with Master Luo!" Li Hong said to Yan Zhuang and Wei Chi Xunyan, Cheng Dazhi and others. Yan Zhuang and Wei Chi Xunyan and others bowed down to receive the order.

Li Hong also did not stay in this place for a long time, but went down the hill to return to the palace.

"Chen Gong, do you think there is something wrong with our intelligence system?" On the way back to the palace, Li Hong asked Chen Gong.

Chen Gong and Li Duoqi are both Li Hong's personal guard generals, but their powers are different, Li Duozhu is in charge of Li Hong's direct personal soldiers, the prince is in charge of the palace and the prince is in charge of the palace, Chen Gongzhi is protecting the safety of Li Hong who is traveling, and is biased towards the position of the commander of the guard.

"Your Highness is saying that in terms of the details of Cha Wuer, there is a deviation in the information we have obtained?" Chen Gong pondered.

Li Hong snorted coldly, "It's not just that it's so simple, they just haven't found out Wu Er's true identity at all." ”

Indeed, if Yan Zhuang's secret guards could investigate more carefully and find out Wu Er's killer identity, Li Hong would not just treat him as a gangster, and naturally he would not be as careless as he is today, so Wu Er might not really be able to commit suicide.

It's just that Yan Zhuang has always been in charge of the secret guard and intelligence of the East Palace, and the intelligence system of the East Palace was also established by Yan Zhuang at the beginning, and Chen Gong has been by Li Hong's side for less than three years, so Chen Gong doesn't know what to say about this issue, so he can only remain silent.

Li Hong knew Chen Gong's thoughts, so he didn't want to embarrass him anymore, so he asked, "Chen Gong, do you have any talent in this area?" You can recommend a few to Lone. ”

There is no shortage of talented people in the East Palace, and Li Hong recently accepted Zhang Khan Zhi, Li Qiao and Di Renjie, and today he found the great talent of King Luo Bin, and he is also ready to enter the East Palace, so now there are many talented people around him, just let these people manage the intelligence system and lead the secret guards of the East Palace, Li Hong feels that it is still overkill, and secondly, these people all have the talent of the prime minister, if they let them do some dirty and dirty things, they may not be able to do well.

Chen Gong thought for a moment, and then replied, "Your Highness, I think it's good for Wei Chi Xun. ”

Li Hong scolded with a smile, "Let Yu Chi Baolin's son be the intelligence head of the East Palace, you really dare to think about it!" ”

"Hehe, didn't I see that this kid has potential in this area, and I think it's a pity not to develop it! But..."Chen Gong smiled awkwardly, and stopped talking.

"Just say what you want." Li Hong rebuked coldly.

"Today's arrest of Wu Er, Wei Chi Xunyan and a few people are too suspicious." Chen Gong said in a low voice.

"Are you saying that they went too smoothly when they captured Wu Er, and they neglected the poison pill in Wu Er's mouth?" Li Hong asked.

Chen Gong nodded slightly.

A cold light flashed in Li Hong's eyes, and he was silent, and he never said a word on the way back to the palace!
