"That person will definitely come, even if there are knives in the sky, as long as he receives that letter, he will come. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "This is Li Qingxiang's belief, he knows that he is a rich prime minister, he has not made any achievements when he was in power, but he has not made a big mistake, he has missed some people in his life, but that person, he will never be wrong!" has a mysterious background, a young man's ambition, but has no intention of officialdom, has a wide range of hobbies, but has a little quirk; Graceful and suave, he is the best among young people. However, the biggest characteristic of that person is that he is a little unprofessional, but his curiosity is extremely strong, and he has already roughly explained the situation here in the letter, as long as the person receives the letter, he will come no matter what, but he is now a little puzzled, why has the person who sent the letter not returned? Did something happen again? The situation on the outside, what you imagined to be worse?

Things started half a month ago. Li Qingxiang remembers very well that it was the birthday of his youngest son Li Changping, and several of his children had already married and separated separately. This youngest son is the only one, who has not yet started a family, and has always been by his side, and he was personally brought up by his wife Zhen, so he naturally has more preference, but in his opinion, although Changping is a little pampered, he is kind in nature, so it is up to his wife to go. The night before, the lady instructed the housekeeper that Li Changping's birthday should be celebrated no matter what.

But the accident happened that night, that night, Li Changping's most beloved jujube pony was inexplicably poisoned and died. The people watching the horses turned pale with fright, but they didn't know what was going on. The person in charge of raising horses has been in the Li family for almost five years, and he is also a person that Li Qingxiang has always trusted, so after reprimanding him a few words without pain, he promised Li Changping that he would go to the horse market by himself to pick another batch of good horses, and quell the turmoil.

Li Qingxiang didn't take it to heart at first, he thought it was just an accident. But what I didn't expect was that accidents happened one after another, first the horse was killed inexplicably, and the cattle, sheep, and pigs were also in condition. At first, everyone thought that the animals were infected with the plague. Unexpectedly, just three days later, the person who was in charge of patrolling in the house on weekdays was inexplicably found by the river three miles away. That was about nine days ago, and it was only then that Li Qingxiang realized that things might be more serious than he imagined.

He sent his family members, who had been in the government for four or five years, to report to the official, and the county government also sent someone the next day. But will those people really find out something? Li Qingxiang was skeptical. After being in officialdom for so long, he knows those people too well. If he is still in the position of prime minister, I am afraid that it will not be long before they find out. But for an official who has long since retired, where will they take it to heart? As long as he looked at the perfunctory attitude of those people who didn't care, he knew very well that expecting these people to find out what was was simply a matter of begging for fish.

After thinking about it, six days ago, he sent a letter to the man, hoping that he would solve the puzzle for him. It stands to reason that it takes only two days to go back and forth from here to the capital. Could something be wrong? For the sake of safety, he sent four groups of people to the capital five days ago to deliver letters, not only to that person, but also to his protégé and six doors for help.

After sending the letter, Li Qingxiang was even more anxious. Who did it? Why did it come against him? Li Qingxiang's heart is completely bottomless, is it for money? Or is it for that mysterious legend? Could it be that the emperor tried his best to keep him here to retire at the beginning, and what special purpose did he really have? Li Qingxiang was nervous, except for letting his family try not to go out, he was completely helpless, because the other party was well aware of the weaknesses of human nature, and the panic they created single-handedly had made everyone uneasy. With just a little bit of power, it can destroy everyone's will. As early as a few days ago, there were already people asking for leave one after another, with all kinds of excuses, and some newcomers who had only been in the house for a few months tried every means to quit their jobs.

That's a huge test for everyone. That unseen opponent is terrifying! Li Qingxiang took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat on his forehead, if it was a visible opponent, he would not be timid, no matter what, he was a person who had seen strong winds and waves. But now, those invisible black hands, who knows what else they will do? This time he was able to use the front yard as a slaughterhouse, and I heard that just five days ago, the two little guys who left the house, when they were halfway there, their heads were inexplicably gone, and their bodies continued to walk a few steps forward before falling. The vivid description made people feel even more chills from their backs, and the people who were originally panicked became even more uneasy.

Torture! Li Qingxiang remembered these two words again, he could feel that he was already roasted on a fire, but this kind of torment, but he didn't know when it would end, this was the real torment. has been the prime minister for so long, he has always liked to figure out the emperor's mind the most, but this time, when he faced the opponent who saw the dragon without seeing the end, he felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar, and he didn't know what the other party wanted, that feeling was really maddening.

"Master, it's not early, you better have a good rest." Li Fu, a butler dressed in gray, appeared in front of him, and said with a respectful expression: "Today is already the sixth day that you sent the letter, no matter what, there should be a letter back." You've said he's a great guy, I think, as long as he shows up......"

"Boom!" With a loud bang, a palm-sized stone flying from outside fell to the ground, because the force was too great, the stone actually fell apart and cracked, and there was a small package tied to the stone.

The housekeeper Li Fu had the courage to pick up the small package, opened it and looked at it, only to see that there was a pair of half-used shoes inside, as well as a green sweat towel, and the bottom was pressed by the letter written by Li Qingxiang. The housekeeper took out the letter with trembling hands and handed it to Li Qingxiang.

Needless to say, the master and servant already knew what was going on. They had no way of knowing what it was like out there. In the past ten days, there have been a lot fewer caravans passing through here and entering the capital, and the businessmen who came out of the capital have lost their footprints. It's a complete island!
