Late at night in the mountain manor, under the moonlight, more than a dozen torches made the sound of "peeling and peeling".

One after another, servants and maids were escorted out of the manor and herded into the open space on the left side of the manor.

The wounded guard, supported by his former companions, was driven to the other side with a low wail.

Li Xuan rode on his horse and bowed his head in thought.

A group of Qianniu guards also rode behind him, lined up, red clothes and gold armor, majestic,

All around, the catchers, errands and servants from the Hangzhou Thorn Mansion were quickly searching the entire manor.

All the people in the Nanchang palace have been withdrawn from the manor, and no one has participated in the search of the manor.

Li Xuan's eyes were a little sloppy, and his attention was all focused on the memory picture in his mind.

A woman in a peach-white breast-length skirt handed a list into Wang Chao's hands.

On the list, there are only six names, and the names of Zong Ling and Xin Jian are impressively listed on it.

This is the list of disciples of other sects who came to the land of Wu Yue this time to support the Tianyin Sect in Wang Chao's memory.

Although there are only six names, there are more than just six people.

It's just that these six are the core disciples of the other sects of the Demon Sect.

Along with them, there were also a group of ordinary disciples, such as the people who were on the West Lake before, cooperating with Zong Ling and Xin Jian to assassinate Li Xuan.

Now in this kind of manor, none of the mountain villa guards who resisted the attack of Li Xuan and Qianniuwei were also disciples of the Tianyin Sect.

As for the woman wearing a peach-white full-breasted skirt, it was Zhang Wanyu.

It is precisely because she is in direct contact with Wang Chao that she needs to kill Wang Chao even more.

"King of the Enlightened Counties!" Su Zhe and Kui Heng stepped forward at the same time, and said to Li Xuan, "I have asked clearly, these people are all ordinary Daoists of the True Immortal Dao in Hangzhou. The other people who assassinated the prince above the West Lake were all killers of the Immortal Dao, and the appearance of the True Immortal Dao and the Immortal Dao has already indicated that the various factions of the Demon Sect of the Tianyin Sect have begun to appear this time."

"Yes, this time the opponent's strength may exceed our expectations, so we should not underestimate it." Li Xuan's gaze skimmed over Su Zhe's head and fell on the manor guards on the other side, surrounded by more than a dozen catchers and messengers, and then asked lightly, "Then how much does our City Gate Captain know about the situation in this manor?"

Li Xuan didn't plan to tell Su Zhe the details of the manpower of the six major sects that the Demon Sect had come to support the Tianyin Sect this time.

The core disciples of the other sects of the six Demon Sects, with a group of ordinary disciples with good strength, seem to have good strength, but that's all.

The other sects of the Demon Sect did not send their real elder-level main forces at all, and there was only one Wang Dynasty.

Now it seems that they don't have much hope for this Tianyin Sect uprising.

Li Xuan kept this information, such a key piece of information, in addition to being able to exchange information with others, Li Xuan was almost certain that this was a bureau of the Tianyin Sect in itself.

None of the people from the Tianyin Sect were here, and all of them used people from other sects of the Demon Sect to attract attention, and even the City Gate Captain Jin Ji, I'm afraid the same is true.

"This is the Zhuangzi of Jin Ji's family, so I can only go to his relatives first, and then see if there is any evidence." Su Zhe bowed his head slightly, and said in embarrassment for a while: "If there is no evidence of Jinji's rebellion, I am afraid that he can only be investigated for the crime of implication."

"I really haven't found any incriminating evidence here that Jin Ji is hiding the rebels." Li Xuan raised her eyebrows slightly, contemplating slightly: Could it be that they didn't plan to give up the gold plan at the beginning.

Or maybe it's just a trick of confusion.

"The lower officials and their subordinates have turned over the entire Zhuangzi three times, and the subordinates in the village have also carefully interrogated, after these demon gate rebels moved in, Jin Ji has never been here, and usually his relatives who come here are his relatives, and the lower officials are incompetent, and they hope that the prince will be guilty." Su Zhe arched his hand, his face solemn.

"It's okay!" Contact doesn't care at all

waved his hand and turned to look at Kui Heng on the side: "Brother Kui, earlier, this king asked you to help release the wind outside, how did you let it go?"

"Are you saying that I'm waiting here to hunt down the Demon Gate bandits?" Kui Heng immediately stepped forward and arched his hand, "The rumor has already spread,"

"That's good, then trouble Brother Kui to put all of these in the Hangzhou Mansion Prison, remember to walk around the streets, so that everyone knows who they are and where they were arrested." Speaking of this, Li Xuan looked at Su Zhe again, and said with a cold face: "Su joined the army, with the evidence found here, I believe that it is enough to convict his master of treason, as for the city gate captain, everything will be judged according to the crime of implication, and the official should be dismissed, and he should be removed from office, and he should not be indulged in vain."

"Whoa!" Su Zhe immediately perked up, bowed his hand to Li Xuan, and was about to leave.

"Brother Su, wait a minute." Li Xuan stopped Su Zhe, and then said: "All the murderers caught here, the living Hangzhou Assassin Mansion will be taken away for trial, and if they die, this king will take them away and send them to the court to receive merit, and the two of you have no objection."

"Everything is up to the prince." Su Zhe and Kui Heng immediately surrendered.

Li Xuan nodded, turned around and hit his horse and headed towards the mountain, and the other Qianniu guards, as well as the palace guards of the Nanchang Palace, immediately followed.

"This King of Nanchang is really powerful!" Kui Heng sighed with emotion, looked at Li Xuan's back, and thought to himself that the property looted in this manor tonight still needs to be sent by the Nanchang Palace.

Don't look at the king of Nanchang, it's just a few easy arrangements, but the accumulation of Jinji in Hangzhou City for a lifetime has been ruined.

The tall horse jumped up the hill, and Kui Gong and Du Liu, who had been waiting here, immediately stepped forward and arched their hands: "Lord Wang, has everything been taken care of?"

"It's been arranged, Kui Weng, please come with this king, this king has some questions to ask." Li Xuan turned over and dismounted, looked at the carriage on the side, and stretched out his hand to Kui Gong and Du Liu: "Brother Du Xian, please come along."

"Whoa!" Kui Gong and Du Liu did not hesitate at all, and got into the carriage together behind Li Xuan.

"Go to the Hangzhou Sailor Station." After Li Xuan gave an order, he returned to the carriage.

Looking at Kui Gong who was sitting opposite, Li Xuan asked directly, "Kui Weng, whose family is Jin Ji?"

In this era, although you can't be an official if you don't know if you are a scholar, no matter who you are, you are more or less related to the world's scholars.

"It's the Xia family." Kui Gong looked at Li Xuan's expression, with a wry smile on his face, and then said: "Jin Ji's mother herself is a member of the Xia clan's Yuanzhi clan, Jin Ji went to the Western Regions back then, and made many military exploits, and then returned to his hometown and was appointed as the captain of the city gate of Hangzhou Assassin's Mansion, but he has had the opportunity to be promoted for many years, but I don't know why, he has always been reluctant to leave, and now it seems that the reason is here."

"What Kui Weng means is that Jin Ji has been a member of the Tianyin Sect since the beginning, even before he left for the Western Regions...... If that's the case, then the Heavenly Yin Sect's loss this time will be great." Li Xuan's expression changed slightly, and he turned his head to look at Du Liu, who was sitting beside him: "Brother Du Xian, what do you think?"

In the dimly lit carriage, Kui Gong sat alone on one side, and Li Xuan and Du Liu sat side by side on the other side, and the two seemed to be more intimate with each other.

Kui Gong saw all this, and then his expression was unusually calm, without the slightest look of surprise.

In the face of Li Xuan's offer, Du Liu said with a solemn expression: "Not necessarily, maybe it's because the city gate captain is an easy place to make money, and Jin Ji is not willing to let go."

"Or maybe it's because he can control some of the military power there." A sneer appeared at the corner of Li Xuan's mouth, and then he said softly, "Greed is indeed human nature, and it is because of this that others will be caught."

"What the prince said is very true." Kui Gong arched his hand at Li Xuan, he understood Li Xuan's thoughts.

If Jin Ji was really a member of the Tianyin Sect a long time ago, then this time it was exposed too easily, which inevitably made people suspicious.

If it is said that he was only co-opted by the Tianyin Sect, there is no doubt about this, and he only needs to be convicted according to the law.

Li Xuan looked at Kui Gong: "Kui Weng, no matter what, with this golden plan, the Xia family can't have it anymore

Ignore it, we must solve it quickly, and ask Kui Weng to introduce the Xia family carefully."

"The Xia family is also an old family in Hangzhou, which has declined in recent years, and has also spoken about the prince before." Kui Gong sorted out his thoughts a little, and then said: "The prince should know, in addition to raw silk and transportation, the silk line, there are also bleaching and dyeing, garment processing, accessories, sales and many other industries, and the Xia family is based on bleaching and dyeing, but bleaching and dyeing is not ideal, so the Xia family began to put more effort into raw silk and shipping."

"Shipping, the Xia family also has a boat in their hands?" Li Xuan's hand that had just been raised couldn't help but pause in mid-air.

"Lord Wang is wrong, in fact, each family has a ship, but the scale is different, although my Kui family is the largest shipping family in the land of Wu Yue, but its share is less than forty percent." Kui Gong carefully told Li Xuan about the details.

In this Hangzhou, nothing can be monopolized, and all other families are involved, so that after the rise or decline of a certain family, the internal power flow between the sixteen families of Wu and Yue can be carried out smoothly.

"Bang bang bang ......" There was a knock on the door, and Qiu Zhenmu's voice came from outside: "Lord Wang, the sailor station has arrived."

Li Xuan's expression was abrupt, and he said in a low voice: "Time is really fast, in a blink of an eye, it will be here, thank you for your advice."

"The prince is polite." Kui Gong arched his hand at Li Xuan, and at the same time took out a booklet from his sleeve: "Lord, here is the record of the Kui family's shipping routes in Wuzhou for many years, and I hope that the prince will not refuse."

Li Xuan was slightly stunned, and subconsciously looked at Du Liu, who nodded solemnly.
