Chapter 016: Li Xiang is not that kind of person!
Lee House.
Liu Quan entered the hall.
"Xiangye, the wife of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department asks to see you."
"Who?" Li Yunsheng was a little puzzled, "Cui Yan's wife?" ”
"Yes, she's waiting outside the door."
"Let her in."
A short time later, a beautiful woman walked into the hall, followed by a maid.
"The slave family has seen Li Xiang."
"What is Mrs. Cui looking for me?"
Mrs. Cui no longer sells Guanzi.
"The Shangpin shop is being taken care of by the slave family, and yesterday I heard that Xiang Ye ordered a set of dresses, and sent it to Xiang Ye to the house."
She knew that there was an urgency here, so as soon as she made it, she immediately sent it over in person.
When Li Yunsheng heard that the cheongsam was ready, his eyebrows raised unconsciously.
"I didn't expect the owner of Shangpin Shop to be Cui Shangshu."
"It's all up to the grandfather."
Mrs. Cui raised her eyes, and the maid stepped forward with a brocade box.
The brocade box opened, and there was a set of dresses in the box.
Li Yunsheng got up and picked up the purple cheongsam.
Silky fabrics, brilliant colors, graceful to the extreme, quiet and charming, classical implicit sexy.
She is like a beauty in the country and the city, so beautiful that people can't bear to flicker their eyes.
When I look up, I will depict the beauty of the body into my heart.
Purple is not a color that ordinary women can control, but Li Yunsheng is confident that the empress can.
"What a cheongsam."
Mrs. Cui smiled on the side.
"It's good if Xiangye is satisfied."
"Satisfied, very satisfied, the craftsmanship of the Shangpin shop really lives up to its reputation."
Li Yunsheng put the cheongsam back in the brocade box, and at this time, he noticed that there were still five silver tickets of one thousand taels in the box.
"What does this mean, ma'am?"
Mrs. Choi explained.
"The people below have no eyes, how can the Shangpin shop accept the money of the prime minister."
"Hey-" Li Yunsheng pretended to wave his hand, "The prime minister never bullies others, of course you have to pay for things." ”
"Xiang Ye can come to the Shangpin shop in person, which makes the name of the Shangpin shop more prosperous, and please don't shirk it."
Li Yunsheng glanced at the silver ticket again, this was the first time he had collected money.
The feeling of someone giving money is a little wonderful.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to be a corrupt official.
"Then I'll be disrespectful."
Li Yunsheng put the cheongsam into the box and re-covered the silver ticket.
At this time, Liu Quan walked into the living room quickly.
"Xiangye, Cui Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, asks to see you."
"Oh?"
Li Yunsheng looked at Mrs. Cui in front of him, these two people met together today.
"Let him in."
Fei Su and Fei Su's housekeeper have nothing to do with the poisoning, and Xiaolian, the only one who knows the person behind it, is also dead.
But Li Yunsheng did not give up on this matter, and when the matter was done, it was impossible to leave no traces.
Therefore, he ordered Cui Yan to investigate the person who killed Xiaolian, and he thought that there was a result.
After a while, Cui Yan walked in, and he saw his wife standing in the hall at a glance.
"Madame, why are you here?"
As if she was afraid that Cui Yan would misunderstand, Mrs. Cui hurriedly explained.
"Xiangye has set up a set of dresses in our Shangpin, and I am here to give Xiangye a dress."
Li Yunsheng said.
"Cui Shangshu, please take a seat."
Cui Yan reacted this time and hurriedly saluted.
"Li Xiang, what you ordered has been clarified."
"Sit down and talk slowly."
Cui Yan didn't speak immediately, and Mrs. Cui understood on the side.
"Since the prime minister has business to discuss, the slave family will retire."
The maid put the brocade box on the table next to Li Yunsheng, and then retreated with Mrs. Cui.
After the two left, Cui Yan continued to speak.
"According to your orders, Xia Guan sent someone to catch the person who tortured Xiaolian to death.
He confessed under torture that he was an agent of the country. ”
"Patriotic Agent?!"
This result is both reasonable and unexpected.
Li Yunsheng thought that Xiaolian's death might not be so simple, but he didn't expect that there was Wei Guo behind it.
Weiguo is a coastal country and borders Dachu at the same time.
In recent years, although there have been occasional frictions on the border between the two countries, it has generally been peaceful.
In the original plot of the book, Wei Guo did not appear too much, so Li Yunsheng didn't care.
Unexpectedly, the poisoning had something to do with the country.
Wei!
In an instant, Li Yunsheng suddenly remembered something, and he interrupted Cui Yan, who wanted to continue.
"Liu Quan, go and chase Mrs. Cui back!"
Hearing this, Liu Quan, who was waiting on the side, ran quickly towards the door.
Cui Yan was a little nervous and confused, as soon as he mentioned the secret agent of Weiguo, Li Xiang chased his wife, what did this mean?
"Xiangye?"
Li Yunsheng didn't explain the reason: "It's okay, you go on." ”
Cui Yan was a little suspicious, his wife would not also be a secret agent of Weiguo.
He rolled his throat and continued.
"As Li Xiang expected, the maid named Xiaolian, her death was not an accident, but the person did it on purpose."
"What else has been tried?"
"The man was also on orders, and he didn't know much.
As for the reason for killing such a maid, he did not know. ”
Li Yunsheng was silent and began to think about the ins and outs of the whole thing.
Fei Su was known for his prestige in the army, but his subordinates were concentrated on the southwestern border, that is, on the border with Weiguo.
The person who poisoned him was not Fei Su, but someone made him mistakenly think that Fei Su did it.
Kill with a knife!
Therefore, he became a knife in the hands of others.
Someone borrowed his hand to get rid of Fei Su, and the soldiers on the southwest border of Great Chu would also have a grudge against him.
In this way, the southwestern border is unstable, and the defense of the country will wait for an opportunity.
It's just that just by dying a fee, it will not make the southwest defense line rout.
Defending the country, there must be other plans.
Poisoned!
Thinking of the poison in his body, the whole thing is connected.
The two auxiliary ministers of Dachu, one dead and one wounded, made a good calculation to defend the country.
If you don't have a system yourself, you will definitely be taken care of by the country.
In that way, Wei Guo also indirectly controlled the court of Great Chu.
"Who contacted him, did he catch it?"
Cui Yan shook his head and said with some shame.
"The person who contacted him was extremely cunning, and when the subordinate sent someone, he had already run away."
Li Yunsheng closed his eyes and propped himself up on the table with one hand.
Although I knew that it was Wei Guo who was playing ghosts, the clue was broken again.
Moreover, this matter is a little difficult to do.
If it is in Da Chu, no matter who the poisoner is, he can find out that person with his power.
But if a person is in Weiguo, it is different, and he can't force Weiguo to hand over people.
Secret agent of the Patriotic Empire, this matter is very likely to be done by someone sent by the Imperial Court of the Patriotic State.
If you want to get the antidote, it's not so easy.
Cui Yan said with some curiosity.
"Li Xiang, why are you so concerned about this matter?"
This kind of thing is actually not uncommon in Jingshi.
Great Chu, Northern Qi, and Weiguo, each country has its own secret agents.
Even, the spy has infiltrated the court.
It's just that he doesn't understand why a little maid would alarm Li Xiang.
Although the maid went out of the Li Mansion, she was just a dead maid, and it was worthy of Xiangye personally explaining to him for detailed investigation.
Moreover, why did the secret agent of the country kill a maidservant, this also makes no sense.
Li Yunsheng did not answer Cui Yan's question.
"Okay, that's the end of this matter, you don't have to worry about the rest."
"Yes."
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Cui Yan didn't dare to ask more.
Li Yunsheng suddenly remembered the empress.
"By the way, this morning, what happened?"
"There's nothing important, Your Majesty seems to have something to do, and he dispersed early."
Li Yunsheng nodded and did not speak again.
After a pause, Cui Yan looked outside, and at this time, Mrs. Cui was about to walk into the hall with Liu Quan.
"If the prime minister has no other instructions, the lower official will retire first."
Although he wanted to know what happened to Xiangye calling his wife back, he was afraid that it would involve the defense of the country.
Even, a ridiculous idea popped up in his mind.
Madame is beautiful, Lee Sang is young and handsome, they won't ......
No, it won't!
Lee Sang is not that kind of person!
