Yunqin Empire's household envoy tax officer, Zheng Liupin, is responsible for the tax affairs of a province, although he is not the largest official in a province, but for the business, the power is naturally amazing, there has never been an official of this level who is afraid of the big business shopkeeper, only the big business shopkeeper tries his best to tie up such an official.

Liu Xuanwei is a side of the Liu family, belonging to Liu Ziyu's uncle, transferred to Bishui Province before the summer solstice, as the imperial tax officer, Bishui Province has just been established as a province, the population is sparse, and the taxes will be greatly reduced, and there will be no oil and water in a few years, the real intention of the Liu family is naturally to target the Da Dexiang who has completed the amazing layout again in silence.

In the case that there is already some definite evidence, the Liu family did not have to go to such great lengths, but in all the previous confrontations with Da Dexiang, the Liu family lost again and again. The people sent by the Liu family to investigate at the Dragon and Snake Border Pass, no matter how strong their strength is, no matter how great the power they use, they all go and have no return, which makes the Liu family a little unclear about what kind of strength Chen Feirong has in her hands.

And the most important thing is that the Liu family wants to use Chen Feirong, not to destroy Chen Feirong, after all, in the eyes of the Liu family, the greatest value of Dadexiang is also in the legendary shopkeeper.

Because it is the concubine of the Liu family, Liu Xuanwei's Liu family has been very cautious since he was a child and knows how to watch the wind and argue, so when he went to Bishui Province and talked to Chen Feirong several times, he did not show toughness, but only euphemistically expressed the meaning of the Liu family, and revealed that he was also involuntarily, so that if he forced Chen Feirong too much and took risks, it might bring him a glimmer of life.

He also knew very well that limited by his status in the Liu family and his own talents, it was impossible to get too high a position in the Yunqin court, so for him, what he had to pursue in the court was to live a long time and try to enjoy himself as much as possible.

Liu Xuanwei, who deliberately walked all the way, so that passers-by in the market town could see his whereabouts, so as not to be directly killed without evidence, walked into a knife and noodle shop with the best business in Dadexiang, and under the leadership of a man, walked to the door of a window room upstairs.

For Liu Xuanwei, the elegant room in the noodle shop is the product of vassal elegance, which is equivalent to putting some bookcases as decorations in the house of the farmer, but a bowl of hot and sour noodles and the flow of people here can make him feel more at ease when talking to Chen Feirong.

He stepped through the door of the room, but in the next breath his figure froze, and his brow furrowed.

Because in his sight, there was not only Chen Feirong sitting in this elegant room, but also a young man with his back to him.

In the previous meetings with Chen Feirong, Chen Feirong was alone, but now there is suddenly one more person, which makes him feel that something is wrong, and he immediately hesitates.

"Lord Yanagi can rest assured. ”

Looking at the middle-aged white-faced man with a frown on his brows and a somewhat similar face to Liu Ziyu, Chen Feirong smiled and said softly: "If you want to be unfavorable to adults, I won't be here today." ”

Liu Xuanwei was not at all unhappy by Chen Feirong's words, his eyes flickered, but he said calmly, "Exactly." Turning his hand and taking the wooden door behind him, he just wanted to ask about the identity of the young man beside Chen Feirong, but he was stunned again, and his heart suddenly felt uneasy.

The young man sitting next to Chen Feirong at this moment is naturally Lin Xi, but at this moment, Lin Xi's face is wearing a delicate mask made by Chen Feirong herself, which naturally makes people feel very strange at this time.

Lin Xi looked at Liu Xuanwei's eyebrows, looked at the caution and caution in the other party's eyes, and saw that his center of gravity leaned slightly to the right, and his body could instantly exert force at any time, breaking through the wall on his right side and flying into the street, he smiled slightly, knowing that the heart of the Liu family was very consistent with Chen Feirong's description.

"Chen Feirong is my person, if you want to be more accurate, I am the big shopkeeper of Da Dexiang. He didn't invite the other party to sit down first, Lin Xi said calmly.

Liu Xuanwei chuckled in his heart, his eyes were uncontrollably full of consternation, and even his left eyelid jumped violently, and for a while, he didn't know how to speak.

"I know that your Liu family must have carefully checked Da Dexiang and felt that Da Dexiang's background was unusually clean. Lin Xi's eyes turned colder, and he said sarcastically: "But if the background is really so clean, how can you have such confidence, and how can you let those cultivators who went to the Dragon Snake Border Pass have no return?"

Liu Xuanwei's forehead began to break out in cold sweat.

The other party's tone made him feel that things were already developing in the most unfavorable direction, but after all, he was not a person who had never seen the world, so he tried his best to control his emotions, looked at Lin Xi as calmly as possible, and asked in a humble tone: "I don't know whose adult's property it is?"

"Could it be Gu Yunjing?"

At this time, the fastest thought that appeared in Liu Xuanwei's mind was such a thought.

Dragon Snake Border Pass... Power... The other party seems to have a disdainful attitude towards the coldness... With the power of the Liu family, he couldn't find out, and all this formed the word Gu Yunjing in his mind.

With Gu Yunjing's power, there doesn't seem to be a big problem in dealing with the Liu family.

"Are all your Liu family's advisors idiots?"

He looked at Lin Xi in amazement, and Lin Xi also looked at him, making his gaze more rude, more disdainful and colder.

"My lord?" Lin Xi sneered: "What the Liu family is most afraid of is just a certain adult in Zhongzhou City?"

Liu Xuanwei suddenly felt his heart tighten, sweat gushed out of his back like pulp, and his face suddenly became a little pale.

"Haven't you thought about it, who did Mu Shenyun do for him?" Lin Xi glanced at him lightly and said, "Where did it happen?"

"Of course. After a pause, Lin Xi then sneered: "If your Liu family can't even detect who Mu Shenyun is doing things for, then I doubt that your Liu family still has the ability to preside over the affairs of a province." ”

The meaning of Lin Xi's words was very vague, if it was before, he might not be able to understand it, because the emperor was behind Mu Shenyun's black market transaction, and it had always been a secret that only a very few people knew, and even before the emperor and the eldest princess made it clear, the eldest princess didn't think that it was the emperor who did it. But after the incident of the Divine Elephant Army and the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor in the Prajna Corridor, an existence of the level of the Liu family finally thought of who was behind Mu Shenyun.

And ordinary merchants, if they were bluffing, it would be impossible for them to know about Mu Shenyun, and it would be impossible for them to know the confidential military information of the Divine Elephant Army and the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor so quickly.

Therefore, the meaning that Lin Xi wanted to express was extremely clear and obvious in Liu Xuanwei's heart at this time.

And this meaning made Liu Xuanwei's breathing difficult.

"Could it be... Is it a saint?" Thinking of the consequences that he and the Liu family would have to face if all this was true, Liu Xuanwei's hands trembled unconsciously when he said this sentence with difficulty.

"Otherwise, how could your Liu family not find out the details of Da Dexiang at all?"

"Otherwise, how could Mu Shenyun trade at the Dragon Snake Border Pass before?"

"Otherwise, which official would dare to unscrupulously kill your Liu family's people at the Dragon Snake Border Pass?"

"Otherwise, how could Da Dexiang develop so fast?"

Lin Xi looked at Liu Xuanwei and asked four rhetorical questions coldly.

These four rhetorical questions will naturally have many other answers in ordinary times, the Liu family can't find out the details of Da Dexiang, it is naturally possible that Da Dexiang really has no details, Mu Shenyun traded at the Dragon and Snake Border Pass, and it does not mean that the emperor controls the black market transactions at the Dragon and Snake Border Pass, someone dares to kill at the Dragon and Snake Border Pass, or it may not be an official, but Nangong Weiyang, a person who dared to kill when he was in charge of Biluo Tomb by Wenren Cangyue before, Da Dexiang has developed so fast, and it may only be a business.

However, under Lin Xi's deliberate guidance, Liu Xuanwei at this moment naturally couldn't form these assumptions in his mind, and all the rhetorical questions, in his mind, the answer naturally boiled down to one point, Da Dexiang is the emperor's secret industry!

Because Da Dexiang is the emperor's, even with the power of the Liu family, he can't find out his backstage at all!

The emperor controlled the black market business at the Dragon and Snake Border Pass, and Da Dexiang was doing some things to launder black money, so Da Dexiang's investment was so desperate and developed so fast, and he didn't care about forces like the Liu family at all... Killing some of the people who were being tracked down by the Liu family was just to warn, but the Liu family didn't associate these things together at all, and still kept trying to intervene, and finally forced Da Dexiang to reveal his backers.

But this backer is too big... With just one will, the Liu family can be crushed and crushed.

"Since it's holy... Then why don't you directly remind us in some aspects, so that we have made such a big mistake?" Liu Xuanwei's face was extremely pale, and he looked at Lin Xi with difficulty, and asked.

Lin Xi was waiting for this sentence.

If the evidence cannot be given and the entire Liu family is completely convinced, even if this Liu Xuanwei is bluffed today, it may cause some trouble in the future.

"Idiot!"

Lin Xi unceremoniously spit out two words coldly, looked at Liu Xuanwei and sneered: "Is the Liu family worthy? The most stupid thing about you is the same as what you think in your heart now, even if I point it out with you, you still want to see some evidence to prove that Da Dexiang is indeed doing things for the Son of Heaven." You will still cause trouble, but your Liu family still has some talents and some use, can you directly abolish all the people of your Liu family and cut off your official positions, so that you can reflect?"

"It's because of your stupidity. That's why I forced me to take a special opinion of you because of your invasion, so that your Liu family would die. Lin Xi accentuated his tone, and said in a heavy cold voice: "I only hope that your Liu family will be smarter and stricter in the future, otherwise you really think that you will not dare to completely erase your Liu family from Yunqin?"

Every time Lin Xi said a word, Liu Xuanwei's heart trembled.

He could hear Lin Xi say this, and he must have wanted to show inconclusive evidence.

Is it a token of the emperor, or is it a secret decree of reprimand?

He looked at Lin Xi and saw Lin Xi stretch out his hand.

However, he saw that Lin Xi's hands were empty, and he was in shock, but his breathing completely stopped, his gaze was completely frozen, and his body was completely stiff.

Lin Xi's hands were very smooth, and the brilliance of a layer of soul power began to shine in front of his eyes.

Then he saw that this pale yellow soul power formed dazzling golden lightning bolts in Lin Xi's hands.

The soul power poured out from Lin Xi's hand even faster, penetrating farther out of the body.

Then he saw it more and more clearly.

The golden lightning turned into soul power was twisted into a strand, like a golden dragon with teeth and claws. An aura of extraordinary majesty and power permeated this room.

Every Yunqin person understood what it meant for such a soul power to be transformed into golden lightning.

Especially for court officials and cultivators like him, he felt that this was absolutely true and there was no fraud.

After his brain was blank and his body stiffened for a few breaths, with a pop, Liu Xuanwei, who was already soaked in cold sweat, knelt in front of Lin Xi, his body trembled, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to raise his head.

When the pain of his knees hitting the ground made him regain some of his ability to think, he couldn't help but think that only the emperor and the crown prince could do such a thing in this world, but the emperor naturally couldn't be here, and the crown prince was already dead... Could it be that the crown prince is not dead, or that the saint actually has a son?

But no matter which assumption it is, the saint took advantage of the death of the prince to launch the Southern Expedition to force the Huang family and the Wen family back... The secrets behind this series of things are definitely not something that the Liu family can speculate on and interfere with, and even knowing these things may bring about the consequences of extermination.

At this time, he only felt that the saint was too terrible, the Liu family found out that the truth was too terrible, and the Liu family was too stupid to find some connections very early.

Lin Xi smiled mockingly.

His mockery was most genuine at this time.

"The things behind Dade Xianghe are now only known to your Liu family, so you should know very well what to do. He glanced at Liu Xuanwei, who was kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to look up, and said lightly.

Liu Xuanwei kowtowed again and again, his face was like white paper, and he said: "How dare our Liu family reveal half a sentence to the outside world." ”

"If there is any trouble in the future, you can let the Liu family help you do it. Lin Xi made a gesture that you can roll, turned around, and said in Chen Feirong's ear in a voice that only Chen Feirong could hear.

Chen Feirong seemed to be smiling, and after Liu Xuanwei crawled back, she said in Lin Xi's ear: "Master, you are so amazing." ”

Lin Xi laughed and scratched his head embarrassedly, "Although I'm a little proud... But I'm going to be a little embarrassed by you. (To be continued)
