The emperor fingered the recording jade slip, but he was not in a hurry to activate, but looked at Li Ruitian with interest, his imperial brother is now lonely and withdrawn, and he doesn't like to be close to people, but today he actually went to Zhenbei Hou's Mansion to celebrate his birthday?

He smiled and asked, "Ruitian, why did you go to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion?" ”

The aura on Li Ruitian's body was like a cold pool on a moonlit night, revealing a hint of coolness, and he responded indifferently, "I heard that there is another miracle doctor in the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, so I want to go for a while." ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows, but he had never heard of this matter, so he asked Zhou Zhengyuan instead, "Is there really such a thing?" ”

Zhou Zhengyuan arched his hand, "Lord Rui should be referring to his wife and niece, and his medical skills are indeed extraordinary." ”

"In this case, please come and see the Empress Dowager." The emperor smiled with relief, he was very confident in the medical skills of Mrs. Zhenbei Hou, if it was a doctor who even she respected, of course it would not be wrong.

Then the recording jade slip was activated, and everyone listened attentively, but after hearing it, they frowned and said nothing.

"The Heaven and Earth Alliance is a borderless organization," Zhou Zhengyuan said, "claiming that everything in the heavens and on the earth can do anything, as long as you can afford to pay the price, you can take on any task." And they never compromise the privacy of their customers, and they have an excellent reputation. ”

The two people who were caught by Li Ruitian were the task executors of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, and they wanted to kill themselves, but they were stopped by Li Ruitian with special methods. Although they are honest about coming from the Heaven and Earth Alliance, they don't know anything about the customer.

The task executors of the Heaven and Earth Alliance come from masters from all over the world, and they only receive tasks through special channels, and get rewards after completing the tasks, and that's it. The members of the alliance did not even know each other.

"The task they have to complete is to set a fire to the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, and then leave a fire fold with the Lisan Chinese script." Li Xu pondered, "The ostensible purpose is to make us think that it was done by the people of Lissan, what will be the real reason?" ”

"The country of Lisan took the opportunity to provoke and want to set off a war between the two countries?" Li Chu squinted.

Zhou Zhengyuan shook his head, he knew Lisangguo very well, "It's not very likely." Now that the emperor of Lisangguo is not in good health, although he has established the crown prince, the situation is not stable, and Lisangguo will not act rashly. ”

"Then," Li Chu actually wanted to talk about the second possibility, which was also his initial suspicion, "someone wants to blame the Lisang Kingdom and intend to provoke a war between the two countries?" ”

Hearing this, the emperor took a deep breath and looked at the four people in the audience with blazing eyes, "Is this possible?" ”

Zhou Zhengyuan did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment before saying, "In addition to the small countries around my dynasty, except for the Lisan country, only the Qiang Wuguo can be regarded as a scale, and the Qiang Wuguo is even more flawless because of the new mourning of the monarch." ”

Li Xu said, "Is it related to Hao Yue?" He recently entered Tianhao City privately, could it be him? ”

The emperor shook his head affirmatively, "It can't be Hao Yue." ”

Li Xu couldn't help but wonder in his heart, why did his father trust Hao Yue so much?

Li Chu remembered something, "It is reported that Hao Yue is chasing and killing a group of Lissan, could it be that the group of Lisan people did it?" ”

It was as if there was a fog to cover the truth of the facts, and everyone was silent for a while.

"Perhaps," Li Ruitian's cold voice broke the silence in the hall, "someone wants to borrow a knife to kill someone." ”

Borrowing a knife to kill?

The emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Ruitian, "Ruitian, how do you say this?" ”

"Hao Yue chased and chased him to Tianhao City," Li Ruitian said, "Use this plan to borrow the hand of the Tianhao Dynasty to capture Hao Yue." ”

This thought instantly lit up several people in the mist, and Li Xu's eyes lit up, "What Uncle Ruihuang said is reasonable, what I can't understand is that if it is to provoke a war, why just set such a small fire, and not even hurt half of the people, it really doesn't make sense." ”

"And if it's just to let me arrest the Lisan people who appeared in the city under vigilance," Li Chu slapped the ground and put away the paper fan, "It's best to force out Hao Yuezi, and if you can't force it, you can make him jump off the wall in a hurry, so it will naturally be easy to expose his whereabouts." It's a good idea! ”

"The reason why Hao Yue came to Tianhao City," Li Ruitian asked, "has it been found out?" ”

"Not yet," Li Xu replied, "I only know that he bought two sets of women's clothes in Yingyue Building on the day he first came to Tianhao City, and he hasn't shown up since then. ”

Because he didn't want to make Hao Yue's matter public, all the pursuits were done privately, and the effect was not so good.

Li Ruitian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zhou Zhengyuan, "General Zhou, it is said that the divine doctor of your mansion also defected to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion recently?" ”

Zhou Zhengyuan was stunned for a moment, and before he could answer, he heard the emperor ask in a voice with sudden and doubts, "General Zhou, I remember that your wife once said that both parents died, but they were orphans?" How could a niece suddenly come to the door to join her family? ”

"Back to the emperor," Zhou Zhengyuan immediately replied, "The minister's wife died tragically during the war more than ten years ago, and she was separated from her father and brother at that time, and she has not heard from her for many years, so she thought that she had died in the war." I never thought that my father-in-law and eldest brother would escape, and the eldest brother also had a daughter, and all the father-in-law's medical skills were passed on to this daughter, who was Hu Xinyue, the nephew of his wife. ”

"The new moon and the half moon came to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to join the family, because they got the whereabouts of the minister's wife."

The emperor stared, and suddenly said, "Tomorrow, General Zhou will bring this girl into the palace for the Empress Dowager to be treated," and then he looked at the two sons in the hall, "Xu'er and Chu'er, you continue to look for Hao Yue to come out, let's disperse, Ruitian stays." ”

Early the next morning.

As soon as Sister Jiang Shuli got off the carriage in front of the academy, she saw a woman in a green shirt and coarse cloth pulling the passing disciples at the door, begging one by one.

The two sisters glanced at each other and walked towards the door.

Sure enough, the woman hurriedly walked over, grabbed Jiang Shuli's sleeve and said, "This student, can you please go in and send a message to a gentleman named Zhang Ruxue, just say that the old man has passed away, but ask to see him." ”

Jiang Shuli frowned, if this woman pulled all the disciples who entered the academy to spread the word like this, it would have a bad impact on Zhang Ruxue's reputation, she turned her head and asked Jiang Shuxin to enter the academy first, and when she came back to her senses, she saw that the woman went to ask the disciple next to her.

"Sister Jiang."

Li Xu's voice came from behind him, Jiang Shuli turned his head, only to see the sunlight spilling from behind him, and the smile was even brighter, "Senior, morning." ”

Li Xu walked up to her and looked at the woman in the green shirt and coarse cloth together, "It's her again." ”

When Jiang Shuli heard this, she raised her eyebrows slightly, "Isn't it the one who gave the master the piano that day?" ”

"That's right."

Li Xu listened to it, and suddenly understood why Jiang Shuli frowned, he turned around, and Peng Dasheng ran up happily, "Dare to ask what the master commands?" ”

Li Xu was silent, and said to the woman Nunu, and Peng Dasheng immediately understood, "The old slave will go and invite the woman to wait in the carriage, so as not to disturb the disciples of Lanshan Academy to go to school." ”

"Tell her that we will go and tell Master Zhang and let her wait."
