Li Wanru didn't know where Xiweituo came from, and she was confident that she could be safe. In her opinion, as long as he is locked up, even if the chaotic party can't ask for clues, he can still ask from other people's mouths. It can't be as rigid as he is.

A group of people were taken back to the prison of the City Lord's Mansion to be imprisoned, because there was no clear evidence that the officials were involved in the two assassinations of Li Wanru, and Li Wanru had no choice but to punish them.

Luo Han is too lazy to participate in this kind of thing, it really can't be done, he cut it directly, if there is any problem, he, An Guogong, will come out to bear it, and no one dares to say anything. Of course, before that, Luo Han still wanted to see Li Wanru's ability.

In the private room of a restaurant in the city, Jin Xiang enthusiastically poured wine for Luo Han, picked up the wine glass and said, "Lord An Guogong, you are a legendary figure in the kingdom military. The last time I saw you, when I went back to the royal capital to report on my work, I happened to see your respectful face. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to sit at the same table with adults in such a place, and the last general will do it first. ”

Luo Han picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Xin said: "It's not the first time I've seen you, I still got you to the White Lion Country when you were in the Goshawk Kingdom." ”

Jin Xiang said while pouring wine: "I don't know how the adults came to this little Tang City?" ”

Luo Han said: "I have some friendship with the city lord of Tang City, she is my student, and I came here this time to help her get back the power of trusteeship." It's just that I didn't expect that the officials in Tangcheng were not greedy enough to swallow elephants, and they wanted to assassinate Wanru, so I went to find the garrison. Having said that, I heard that you are the most shining star among the young talents of the military in recent years, how did you get here? ”

Jin Xiang said: "My lord Miao praised, the last general is just a general, what is it in the star-studded White Lion Country?" The last general has been transferred to the south of the kingdom since three years ago, in charge of more than 30,000 troops and horses in the surrounding fifteen cities, and is responsible for suppressing bandits in Tuntian. This time I came to check the effectiveness of the Tuntian of the Tangcheng garrison, but I didn't expect to meet adults, which is really a blessing for three lives. ”

Luo Han smiled and said: "Don't be modest, you have only been in the kingdom for a few years and you have controlled an army of 30,000, which is all accumulated little by little by military merits." The general told me that after a few years he stepped down, and you were one of his favorite successors. Don't keep saying anything about surrendering generals, at most two years, the kingdom will launch a war to conquer the goshawk kingdom, and then it will be the hero of the hometown. ”

Jin Xiang is overjoyed, all he is nostalgic for is his homeland, and he has no sense of belonging to the Goshawk Kingdom at all, if he can lead the troops back, he can really return to his hometown. As for the importance of the general, he knew that if the Goshawk Kingdom was not conquered, he would always be a "foreigner", and it would be difficult to become a general, but once conquered, he would really be a member of the kingdom, and no one could say anything about his origin.

"Excited, right?" Luo Han saw it in his eyes and said with a smile: "After all, the future of the kingdom belongs to you young people, do a good job, I am optimistic about you." ”

Jin Xiang smiled and said: "The adult is still in his prime, as long as the adult is still in the first day, the first person in the military of the White Lion Country will always be an adult." ”

Luo Han shook his head and said meaningfully: "It won't be long before I will retire." Jin Xiang, I entrust you with something, can you agree? ”

Jin Xiang nodded without hesitation: "My lord, please say, the last general will go to the soup and die without giving up." ”

"No matter what happens, standing behind Tang City Lord Li Wanru, can you do it?"

Jin Xiang was stunned: "My lord, the general will be a little confused......"

"It's simple, no matter what she does, you have to support her, even if it's ...... She's going to rebel! ”

Jin Xiang was shocked: "This ...... This ......"

Luo Han said indifferently: "This is what I mean, and it is also the meaning of the general, you can have today, who is helping you, you should know in your heart." Whether you agree or not, whether you fulfill or not, I don't force you, and I don't want you to help her rebel and die, I just hope that you can save her life in the end, this is the bottom line. ”

Jin Xiang hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, "The last general agrees, even if Tang City Lord Li Wanru wants to build a ...... rebellion, the last general is also willing to raise troops to follow, in order to repay the general's kindness and the virtue of the adult's cultivation. ”

Luo Han smiled and said, "Maybe it's not that serious, that little girl knows the severity and is not completely sure, she shouldn't mess around." Maybe you won't need to do anything in the future. Or perhaps...... His Majesty will be eager to do something as soon as I'm gone, who knows. ”

Jin Xiang didn't answer, this kind of thing was too important, he needed to digest it well, and Luo Han didn't say anything anymore. After the two finished eating silently, Luo Han greeted him and left first.

When I returned to the house, I saw Li Wanru with a sad face. Luo Han asked, "Is there any progress?" ”

Li Wanru shook her head: "The first wave of assassins identified that it was Siweito's younger brother who came forward to instruct them, but there were only human witnesses and no physical evidence. The second wave of Assassins insisted that they had heard of the arrival of the lord of the city and wanted to assassinate me, causing chaos and recovering the country. And those officials flatly denied that they had used various means to persecute the merchants, and did not admit that the congratulatory gifts they received would be handed over. I checked their family property, and all of them were very rich, but the gap was not very large, and there was no way to prove that they conspired to squeeze the merchants of Tangcheng. ”

Luo Han thought for a while and said, "I'll give you a hint, friend of interest." After saying that, he left directly.

Li Wanru didn't understand for a while, but she knew that Luo Han must have a way to break the situation, and she just hoped that she could think of it.

"Friends of interest...... Friends of interests......" Li Wanru repeated this word, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she immediately said loudly: "Come on, follow me to prison." ”

In the prison, there is a special interrogation room. The leader of the second wave of assassins who assassinated Li Wanru, the masked man was tied to a stake, his hands hanging above his head, and he looked at the girl in front of him with an indifferent expression.

"I said it, killing you is my own idea, it has nothing to do with others, if you want to kill, you have to do whatever you want, don't waste time on me anymore."

Li Wanru looked at the file in her hand and said, "Limu, this is your name, you are the cousin of the previous lord of the country, right?" ”

"Yes, I have royal blood in my body, which is why I assassinate you."

Li Wanru said: "I have never doubted your motives. It's just that, according to the records, in the past few years, the descendants of your royal family have launched three rebellions, all of which have been suppressed, all the participants have been killed, and the remaining forces have become weaker and weaker each time. In this way, why do you dare to start a rebellion? With just your kind of person, even a hundred percent of the garrison outside the city can't resist it, and even if you kill me, you won't be able to return to the country. ”

Limu said disapprerovingly: "You don't have to waste your time, I won't tell you anything." ”

"Really?" Li Wanru smiled confidently, as if she had a bamboo in her chest. "Actually, the reason is very simple, I just checked the information and posted an interesting thing. You have rebelled repeatedly, and it's not for the purpose of restoring the country in Tang City at all, right? You descendants of the royal family are merely trying to trick your subjects who still have illusions about the old dynasty into helping you discover the treasures left behind by the kingdom under the guise of restoration. When the White Lion Kingdom captured Tang City, it was found that the amount of wealth in the treasury was excessively small, and the wealth accumulated by the kingdom over hundreds of years should have been hidden in some hidden place, which may have been used to restore the country. But now it is different from the past, and your opponent for restoration is the incomparably powerful White Lion Kingdom, which has unified the vast surrounding lands and is strong and strong. You should have been aware of this after your first rebellion, but you still did it a second, third, or even fourth, and that's intriguing. ”

Limu snorted coldly, "Say whatever you want." ”

Li Wanru said: "This treasure should need to be opened by the descendants of the royal family, but unfortunately, Sivedore found this treasure, although it could not be opened, but it was still controlled, and he was greedy and did not report it." The real purpose of your subsequent uprisings was to take back control of the treasure and take it away. ”

Limou's face twitched, as if he had been right. Li Wanru continued: "I am not unfounded in what I said, I can even deduce the specific location of the treasure. According to the records, the second and third times you had an incident, the main force went directly to the Cao Yun Division outside the City Lord's Mansion, which was originally the palace, and the Cao Yun Division was outside the palace, and the river surrounded the palace and flowed through the Cao Yun Division Wharf. Come to think of it, the king didn't have enough time to build a treasure lot at the beginning, and he couldn't transport it out of the city, so he directly transported it to the dock of the Cao Yun Division by ship and sank the ship to hide the treasure. Just ask the nearby residents if there was a fleet of ships sailing out of the direction of the palace at that time. Besides, it's not a difficult task to salvage. ”

Limu's face was a little ugly, and he nodded: "Not bad." ”

"Here's the problem, you led people to make trouble, and instead of killing Siveda, who mastered this secret, you dealt with me, the newly arrived city lord, is it strange that you say it." Li Wanru looked at Limu's gradually pale face, and suddenly felt extremely refreshed, this feeling of destroying the enemy's confidence little by little will really make people feel good.

"The truth is that Sivedore took the initiative to find you, and used the shipwreck treasure as a condition for you to assassinate me. You deliberately covered your face just so that you had enough time to raise the treasure after the deed was completed, otherwise people like you should not have come out shouting slogans openly. You didn't want to say it before, because you were afraid of exposing the existence of the treasure, and this is also the confidence of Sivedus to dare to be caught. In his opinion, it will not do you any good to pull him, and it will expose the treasure, so you will never confess. ”

Limu smiled miserably: "I didn't expect you to be such a powerful opponent. ”

Li Wanru said: "It's not that I'm powerful, but my teacher reminded me that you and Xiweituo are friends of interest, and there must be some kind of interest that makes you willing to do things for him, and you won't confess to him." Beauty doesn't seem to be enough, and power doesn't dare to be enjoyed by you at all, then, unless you are his illegitimate child, it can only be wealth. But if he gives you money, there will be a record of material transactions, which can be easily exposed once it is checked. When I think about it, only that mysteriously disappeared treasure is possible. With a push, everything became clear. ”

Limu said: "But what about my confession? If you don't have physical evidence, you can't condemn him. ”

Li Wanru smiled: "The teacher said that you are friends of interest, how can you trust each other completely?" Your handle is the existence of that treasure, and once you turn your back on him, he will expose the existence of the treasure. Correspondingly, you must also have his handle, which is in line with the situation of friends of interest, otherwise if you succeed and he does not fulfill his promise, then you are helpless? ”

Limu was silent again, what kind of monster was this girl in front of him? Why was he able to penetrate all his secrets? It made him feel extremely powerless.

"It's not in vain that you betray your allies." Li Wanru continued: "As a descendant of the royal family, if you gather a crowd to assassinate the lord of this city, you will definitely die according to the law, even if I can't change this. But whether your son will be implicated depends on my attitude. ”

Limu sighed and said, "He's still young, he doesn't know anything, and he won't be a threat." ”

"I don't care if he lives or dies."

"I want to leave someone to take care of him, rest assured, I won't let the child know his identity, and I won't let him take revenge."

"Yes, you can designate someone, and I can give him a sum of money to take the child away."

Limu, who had received the promise, thought for a while, seemed to judge Li Wanru's credibility, and said after a while: "There is a box under the poplar tree in the backyard of my house, and it contains the letters I exchanged with Sivedore, which is enough to condemn him. ”

"Send him back." Li Wanru left with the people, and sure enough, she found the letter in the place where Limu said, which detailed the process of Siveda colluding with Limu to assassinate Li Wanru.

Li Wanru, who got the letters, did not go directly to Si Weituo, but interrogated those officials one by one, and did not talk nonsense, but just showed them some of the letters, and then told them that they would either admit to being corrupt with Si Weituo and make meritorious contributions, or convict them of being accomplices of the rebellious party.

Siveda is already bound to die, these officials have bright hearts, with their usual dealings with Siveda, even if there is no evidence, it is okay to directly include them in the chaotic party, not to mention that as soon as Siveda falls, many people will immediately defect, and many things can't be hidden at all, so it is better to take the initiative to shake them out.

When Li Wanru came to Sivedore with a large amount of evidence, Sivedore sighed, suddenly turned around and slammed his head against the wall of the prison, ending his life.

When Li Wanru returned home, it was already early the next morning, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard Luo Han's voice: "Is it solved?" ”

Li Wanru looked up and found Luo Han sitting on the roof, so she craned her neck and replied: "Xiweituo committed suicide, and the other officials should have shaken it out." ”

"How does it feel?"

Li Wanru shook her head: "It's not very good. Originally, Sivedore was just embezzlement, and his sin did not lead to death, and I didn't expect to come to this point. ”

"I mean, the feeling of power to control the life and death of others, to change the fate of others at your fingertips."

Li Wanru was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It seems to be ...... Not bad. ”

Luo Han was silent for a while, and said: "Set a bottom line for yourself, never cross this bottom line, otherwise sooner or later one day you will be like Sivedo." ”
