Li Congyan looked at the information in his hand, his brows were always locked, and his face was also very ugly. Next to them, Wu Conghan and Li Wei sat next to them without saying a word, and they didn't expect Shi Jingjiao, the envoy of the imperial court, to be so unbearable, and secretly communicate with the Khitans.

"I can't get rid of Shi Jingjiao!"

Li Wei looked at Li Congyan, who was still angry, and said with his hands crossed: "Lord, Shi Jingjiao's behavior is not righteous at all, and his subordinates think that his despicable behavior can be publicized to the public!" ”

Wu Conghan immediately stood up when he heard this, and said, "Minister Li's discussion is inappropriate. If you want to publicize Shi Jingjiao's actions, you must show the information of the Suppression Division as evidence, and how can the Lord explain the existence of the Suppression Division to the imperial court and the people of the world? ”

Li Congyan nodded slightly and said, "This matter is indeed not suitable for publicity. Moreover, the specific content of Shi Jingjiao's transaction with the Khitans has not been found, and even if this matter is announced, Shi Jingjiao will easily defend himself. ”

Li Wei and Wu Conghan agreed.

However, Li Wei then said: "Lord, do you just let Shi Jingjiao continue to associate with the Khitans, and we will do nothing?" ”

"Naturally not!"

At this time, although Li Congyan did not know the specific content of Shi Jingjiao's transaction with the Khitans, combined with history, Shi Jingjiao must have been trying to win the support of the Khitans, and even instigating the Khitans to send troops south!

"According to history, at this time, it is very close to the time when the Khitans will invade the north of Xinjiang in a big way, since Shi Jingjiao came into contact with the Khitans at this time, that is to say......"

Thinking of this, Li Congyan stood up suddenly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Humph! This bastard, sure enough, is going to do this! ”

Li Wei and Wu Conghan were also taken aback when they saw this, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the Lord?" ”

Li Congyan said coldly: "If I guess correctly, Shi Jingjiao should be instigating the Khitans to send troops south, so as to take advantage of the opportunity of the Khitan army to harass the frontier, so as to gain authority for himself!" ”

"What!"

Li Wei and Wu Conghan glanced at each other, and both of them had a question in their hearts: "Is there really such a traitor in the world?" ”

"The Lord says so, is there any proof?"

Li Congyan said: "There is no certificate for the time being, but the thing should be like this, eight or nine are not far from ten." It seems that our troops and horses in Dengzhou are about to start mobilizing and assembling! ”

Li Wei immediately asked, "What does the Lord mean that the Khitans may rush to the vicinity of Dengzhou?" ”

"Probably not."

After Li Congyan finished speaking, he was a little unsure, after all, to what extent the history at this time would deviate, and he had no bottom in his heart, so he said: "But there is no guarantee that no Khitan stragglers will appear near Dengzhou." Therefore, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the field army, the garrison army, and the training army must mobilize in advance and be ready to meet the battle at any time! ”

"Whoa!"

While he was talking, Bai Jixun, the commander of the Zhenfu Division, walked quickly, and after greeting Li Wei and Wu Conghan, he crossed his hands and said, "Your Excellency, the information just sent by the Investigation Division of the Beizhen Fusi. ”

Li Congyan took the information and glanced at it, with a sneer on his face.

Seeing this, Wu Conghan asked tentatively, "Lord, something happened again?" ”

"Beizhen Fusi has found Li Xichu's traces! In addition, the Beizhen Fusi has found out that the previous matter of Li Congke and An Chongzhi constantly impeaching me due to the eradication of the Dengzhou family was caused by this Li Xichu's wanton spread of news in Luoyang City! ”

Not only was Wu Conghan taken aback, but Li Wei jumped up and said loudly: "This bastard, not only did he find Hetu to assassinate the lord before, but he also made trouble in Luoyang, he really deserved death!" Where is this bastard on the Lord, his subordinates will bring someone to get him! ”

Li Congyan raised the information in his hand and said: "It was the personnel of the Beizhen Fusi in Luoyang City who discovered Li Sichu's traces, and at present, Li Sichu and Wei Congrong are mixed together, and they should settle in Luoyang City!" ”

Hearing that Li Xichu and the others were in Luoyang, Li Wei looked at Bai Jixun, only to see Bai Jixun fork his hand and say, "Lord, what should I do with this Li Xichu?" ”

Li Congyan thought for a while, didn't say anything, but picked up the cup and drank the water.

Wu Conghan and Li Wei understood when they saw this, and they all claimed that they had something to deal with, and retired together.

At this time, only Li Congyan and Bai Jixun were left in the house, and Li Congyan asked, "How is the Beizhen Fusi Killer Division preparing?" ”

"Lord Qiqi, the killer division of the Beizhen Fusi has already transferred two teams of elites to the past, and now the manpower has entered Luoyang City in batches. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, the killer Si Si Cheng Dong Rui also rushed to Luoyang City in person, preparing to personally command the operation. ”

Previously, Li Congyan ordered Beizhen Fusi to wait for an opportunity to find the whereabouts of Li Xichu and others, and gave Beizhen Fusi's killer division a task: assassinate Li Sichu!

However, this matter is absolutely confidential, except for Li Congyan himself, only the people in the Zhenfu Division know, and Li Sisheng and Li Siye do not know about it.

"Excellent! Has the situation of Li Sichu and others been clarified? ”

"Enlightening the Lord, I have basically figured it out. In addition to Li Xichu, there are also Wei Congrong and Bao Tian, the county governor of Wendeng County, Cao Jia Naian, a former citizen of Huang County, and Shen Mintuo, a household of Penglai County, who are said to have died, and the specific situation has not yet been ascertained. ”

"Oh? He's dead? ”

Li Congyan thought for a while, and then directly ordered, saying: "Tell Si Cheng Dong Rui that as long as the opportunity is right, he will do it immediately!" Although Li Xichu has no power and too much ability, this person is already a hidden danger for Dengzhou, and he must be eliminated as soon as possible! ”

Accustomed to seeing many disasters in later generations due to small losses, although Li Congyan didn't care about Li Xichu, in line with the principle of never being merciful and not leaving any hidden dangers for himself, he must also eliminate the small disaster of Li Xichu, and must not tolerate and raise adultery.

"Whoa! The subordinates will go to give orders. ”

A few days later, Luoyang City.

Wei Congrong and Bao Tian had just returned from receiving a sum of money from a workshop in the south of the city, and were walking leisurely down the street at this time, preparing to return to their foothold in Luoyang City.

During this time, the two of them and Li Xichu resold commercial goods in Luoyang City, or participated in the collection of rents with some businessmen, and also accumulated some money, and lived a very nourishing life. Today is to make an appointment with Li Sichu, Li Sichu will go to another place to collect money, and Wei Congrong and the others will collect money all the way.

"Wei Xiancheng, let's go buy some wine and meat later, we have made a lot of money today, let's eat and drink with the eldest prince after we go back, it can be regarded as a celebration, how about it?"

Bao Tian is good at wine on weekdays, but when he saw a wine shop in front of him, he saw that there was a second pot of the prince of Dengzhou for sale on the signboard, and he immediately aroused the wine worm.

Wei Congrong frowned slightly and said, "Hmph! That's Li Congyan's wine, you drink it too? ”

Bao Tian waved his hand at this time and said, "To be honest, the anger in my heart has dissipated a lot now. Then Li Congyan is no longer something we can bring down, and now the three of us are doing well in Luoyang City, how free are we? Think about Shen Mintuo and Jia Naian, now we are all alive, stronger than anything else! ”

"Humph!"

Wei Congrong understood that Bao Tian was telling the truth, but he was still a little unwilling, and after some entanglement, he said: "If you want to drink it yourself, I will go to buy wine elsewhere with the eldest prince!" ”

Seeing this, Bao Tian also sighed slightly, and said, "In that case, let's go and buy it elsewhere together." ”

After saying that, the two turned away, just when they passed a street intersection, suddenly a carriage galloped, the horses pulling the carriage did not know why they were frightened, at this time pulling the carriage on the street rampage, provoking the surrounding pedestrians to avoid one after another, and the street was suddenly full of chickens and dogs.

"Get out of the way!"

Wei Congrong and Bao Tian were right in front of the carriage, and the two of them were frightened and hurriedly dodged. But the carriage appeared too suddenly, when Wei Congrong and Bao Tian found out, the carriage was already close at hand, at this time the two were so frightened that they trembled, their brains didn't have time to react, although they also dodged, but they didn't move much, and then they stood in place with a frightened face, they were so frightened that they couldn't move.

"Ahh

With a bang, Wei Congrong and Bao Tian were directly knocked down by the carriage, and the frightened horses and heavy carriages ran over the two of them directly, and then turned directly in front, and in a blink of an eye, they didn't know where they had gone.

At this time, the pedestrians on the street were frightened, and they all gathered around to check, especially a few pedestrians who didn't know where to come out of nowhere, and directly surrounded Wei Congrong and Bao Tian.

"How's the two of you?"

"Tell me, what's going on!"

Everyone asked nonsense, but those pedestrians who were intentionally or unintentionally blocking the periphery couldn't notice, and a small vendor in the innermost part slipped an iron needle out of his sleeve, and when he shook Wei Congrong and Bao Tian who were unconscious, the iron needle stabbed each of them in the neck without showing a trace!

"The official is here!"

With a shout, the onlookers dispersed, leaving only Wei Congrong and Bao Tian, who had long since lost their breath in a pool of blood.

"What are you doing?"

Li Xichu paced back and forth in the courtyard where the three of them stayed, it stands to reason that Wei Congrong and Bao Tian should have come back a long time ago, but now that the sky is completely dark, the two are still nowhere to be seen.

"They're not going to run away with the money, are they?"

Li Xichu began to think crankily, and his face was also cloudy.

"No, it won't! After all this, they won't abandon me! ”

Li Xichu was already upset at this time, and in his irritability, he prepared to go out to find Wei Congrong and Bao Tian.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, and then Li Xichu heard a knock on the door.

"These two bastards!"

Li Xichu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and while scolding secretly, he strode forward to open the door.

"You're just going back to ......"

Before Li Sichu finished speaking, he saw two black shadows crashing directly in, and immediately knocked Li Sichu out and fell heavily to the ground.

A black shadow closed the courtyard door with his hand, then pulled out a dagger and rushed up, while the other black shadow kicked Li Xichu's head, Li Xichu felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and his eyes began to blur.

"Do it!"

"Look at me!"

A black shadow directly stabbed Li Sichu in the chest with a dagger, and then made up for it, slashing Li Sichu's neck open!

"Hurry up and cook the whole thing!"

The two black shadows saw that Li Xichu had turned into a bloody man, and he was already dead and could no longer die, so they carefully "cleaned up" the inside and outside of the courtyard, and took some money away.

"Alright, withdraw!"

The two black figures flipped over the wall and withdrew directly from the alley next to the courtyard, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Early the next morning, Dong Rui, the killer of the Beizhen Fusi, sent a message to the Zhenfu Division: "The target has been cleared, and the operation has ended smoothly!" ”
