Chapter 16: Someone Died

"You just need to tell me which people in the court are the people of Li Yu, the king of Chen, and which ones are the people of Li Ye, the king of Jing."

Li Xuan thought for a while, "Take the six departments as an example, the household department, the military department, and the ritual department are the people of King Jing; The rest of the criminal department, the official department, and the ministry of works are the people of King Chen. ”

"Dali Temple is the seat of Uncle Jingwang, and his mother family is General Ouyang's mansion, in charge of 300,000 soldiers and horses."

"The mother family of King Chen Li Tang is the Wushan Department, and he returned to the Southern Dynasty in his early years, and he looked at the border countries for us, and he was very courteous to his father."

Zhang Xueyan smiled, "That's really a big king flag at each end, no wonder it's so arrogant, it's really evenly divided." ”

"Before you entered the mansion, they didn't have time to take care of me, and now that I married the daughter of the prime minister, the signs are all aimed at me, and I wish I would be kicked out by my father tomorrow."

"It doesn't matter." Zhang Xueyan bent down and patted him on the shoulder, "You rest, I'll come to see you tomorrow." ”

Li Xuan nodded and hummed softly, very well-behaved.

…………

sub-hours.

Zhang Xueyan was dressed in a red dress and stood on the wall of Chen's mansion.

Quietly look at the silent courtyard below.

Let the wind blow her long hair and skirt.

The night of wind and snow is the most suitable for killing.

With a wave of her sleeves, like a ghost and a ghost, she landed in the courtyard of Chen Yuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

Pushing open the door and walking in, a middle-aged man was sleeping on the bed.

Covered with a thick quilt, exposing the head and neck.

Zhang Xueyan did not hesitate, with a wave of his right hand, the meniscus knife flew out in an instant, and turned around Chen Zhen's neck.

Soon, extremely fine blood spilled out of the knife.

Zhang Xueyan raised her hand, and the meniscus knife slashed through a semicircle in the air and fell into her sleeve accurately.

The whole process is just a breath and a breath.

The knife returned to her sleeve, and she threw it behind and leaped towards the roof in two steps.

Then the figure disappeared into the snowstorm.

She Zhang Xueyan is the leader of the Demon Sect that everyone in the rivers and lakes fears, and life is as light as a feather to her.

She was never a good person.

Enough people have been killed to fill a room.

She can kill people, and everyone can kill her, but it's just to see who is powerful.

…………

Li Xuan drank wine in the middle of the night, and woke up the next day still groggy and very uncomfortable.

Just as he was about to get up, the door was suddenly opened with a strong force, and he glanced at it, it was his chief of guard, Penda.

"What's wrong?" He asked, pressing his head.

"Chen Yuan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, died at home last night, and there is a token of Jingwang's Mansion next to his body."

"Right now, King Jing and King Chen have entered the palace, and it seems that there is a fierce battle."

"What?" Li Xuan hasn't reacted yet.

"You mean Chen Yuan is dead? Did King Jing send someone to do it? ”

Peng Da nodded, "That's what it means." ”

"Didn't King Chen just run his household department? The moment should be revenge. ”

"You just let them eat the dogs, the snipe and the clam hold each other, and the fisherman profits, isn't it right?"

Li Xuan hurriedly got up and dressed, it was just right, but now that the positions of the household department and the criminal department were vacant, he must seize this opportunity and try his best to hold these two positions firmly in the palm of his hand.

"Go to the Kifu."

An hour later, Ji Lan and Li Xuan were summoned by the emperor into the Chongming Palace.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw Li Tang and Li Ye, one with a blue face, and the other with a red face.

It seems that the two sides have engaged in a war of words.

I just don't know how the battle went.

The two came in, and the emperor asked Li Xuan to stand aside, and asked Ji Lan, "What does Ji think about this matter?" ”
