Chapter 360: Three Visits to the Villa, Copying the Xu Family
"Drive, drive!" On the shore of Dongtan Lake, a group of cavalry galloped from a distance.
Li Xuan rode at the front, and more than a dozen red-clothed and gold-armored Qianniu guards followed closely behind, running wildly like the wind.
A mountain villa loomed in front of them, and the group suddenly sped up their horses.
In a blink of an eye, it had stopped in front of the villa.
Sangu Villa.
Li Xuan rode on the horse, looked at the plaque on it, and sneered: "I really dare to name it, Sangu Villa, this is to regard myself as Zhuge Liang, so who is Liu Xuande?"
"Lord Wang!" Qiu Zhenmu stepped forward and arched his hand: "When Xia Guan was in Chang'an, he occasionally saw the British Duke, who was gentle and humble, and would never have such similar thoughts.
Moreover, when the Taiwei was alive, he was highly respected by His Majesty and the Queen of Heaven, and the British Duke was even more calm.
The lower officials suspect that the British public may not know about this Jinhua matter."
Cheng Yanjin and Li Wei are both extremely speculative figures.
They are not only trusted by the emperor, but also close confidants of the Empress Wu.
Li Jing is like this, and Li Jingye is no exception.
"It's one thing for the British public to know or not to know about it, but this king can't fail to report it, and at most be cautious in his words." Li Xuan sighed lightly, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.
Li Jingye is a talented person, good at riding and shooting, superb and strategic, and has won the trust of the emperor, and has already served as a state assassin before he is forty years old.
The British Duke Li Quan's art of war, and the rest of his life, all fell on Li Jingye.
But who would have thought that Li Jingye would rebel in the future, and it would be a rebellion against Wu Zetian.
If at this time, Li Xuan takes the initiative to create some contradictions with Li Jingye, then in the future, he may be able to fight to eliminate the dominance of Li Jingye and his party.
Moreover, Li Xuan faintly suspected that everything here might be a chess piece secretly arranged by the Empress Wu.
It's like Dongyang Liu.
Just as Li Xuan was thinking, a figure suddenly appeared at the gate of the villa.
It's Qi Guang.
Qi Guang, who arrived here first, rushed out of the villa with a knife in his hand.
The blood on the knife was still flowing.
"Back to the prince, in the Xu family's subordinate room, I found a lot of portraits of the goddess of Tianyin, in addition, when my subordinates were ordered to search the villa, they were resisted by the guards of the villa, killed six people, seized six longbows, two crossbows, and a collar armor, in addition, I also found a kidnapped woman from a good family in the back garden." Qi Guang's eyes were full of killing intent.
Li Xuan turned over and dismounted, patted Qi Guang's shoulder, then looked at Wang Bo on the side and asked, "Mr. Zi'an, how to deal with something like this."
Although his face was not good-looking, Wang Bo still said cautiously: "Returning to the prince, he is suspected of rebellion, although there is not much substantive evidence, but he kidnapped a woman from a good family, gathered a crowd to resist the search of the government, hid two crossbows, a collar and a collar, punished for all crimes, hanged according to the law, and exiled for thousands of miles......
Before Wang Bo's words fell, the two horses had already galloped in.
Jinhua County Ling Ningyi, and County Cheng Lu Jin had already turned over and dismounted at the same time: "Xia Guan has seen the prince!"
Li Xuan nodded and asked casually, "Two, in Jinhua County today, is there a woman who has disappeared to report to the official?"
Ning Yi and Lu Jin glanced at each other, although they were here for Xu Ge's affairs, but when they heard Li Xuan ask, they still had to hurry back: "Back to the prince, there seems to be one the day before yesterday."
"Well, that's a bit unfortunate, the man just found it inside." Li Xuan's expression suddenly became a little sentimental.
The day before yesterday, two days passed.
Ning Yi and Lu Jin's faces couldn't help but change, originally they came here because Li Xuan copied Xu Ge's Sangu Villa in the name of suspected rebellion, but now, how to not talk about the rebellion, if the abduction and trafficking of a good woman is confirmed, it will immediately be a big crime of hanging.
"In addition, we have to find out whether he only kidnapped this one woman, or whether there were more women who were abducted and trafficked before this time, so if there really is, this king should really go to the queen of heaven and let her check the British government!"
Li Xuan's understatement completely connected Xu Ge and Li Jingye.
"Whoa!" Ning Yi and Lu Jin bowed down at the same time, not knowing what to say for a while, nor how to plead.
"Let's go inside." Li Xuan took the lead in walking towards the villa.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Xu Ge who was tied up in a ball and his mouth was stuffed to death.
In the open space on the side, blades, crossbows, and armor were all stacked together.
If these things were in normal times, no one would care even if they were placed in front of Ning Yi and Lu Jin, but now, with the abduction and trafficking of women just now, it is even likely to involve the abduction and trafficking of more women.
These things have now nailed Xu Ge to death.
Seeing Ning Yi and Lu Jin walking in from the outside at the same time, Xu Ge immediately struggled violently.
However, to Xu Ge's surprise, neither Ning Yi nor Lu Jin had any intention of opening their mouths to look at him.
Li Xuan stood in the middle of the main courtyard, looked at Wang Bo on the side, and said softly, "Mr. Zi'an, just play the center according to those charges just now...... And so on, and add one, fill the lake privately, occupy 2,000 acres of land on the lake's beach, hide the field, according to the law, and twist it."
In an instant, everyone looked at Li Xuan in disbelief, and then stared at Xu Ge deadly. Chinese Net
Xu Ge also sat down completely on the ground at this moment.
The truth he has always wanted to hide most has been completely exposed in front of everyone.
Filling the lake without permission and hiding 2,000 acres of land, is he crazy?
According to the law, if there are 50 acres of hidden land, you will be sentenced to two years' imprisonment and 100 rods.
2,000 acres of hidden land, at least 80 years in prison, 4,000 rods.
Enough to beat him to death.
Li Xuan suddenly looked at Ning Yi and Lu Jin, and said unceremoniously: "Two, under your rule, there is such a bad thing in Yintian, you two should think about it, how to explain it to the imperial court, how to explain it to the saint and the queen of heaven."
"Death to the lower officials!" Ning Yi and Lu Jin immediately apologized in fear.
"Check it, first check all the properties of the Xu family in Jinhua, and then make a general order, send troops to ban them all, as for how to distinguish them, wait until this king makes it clear to His Majesty and the Queen of Heaven."
Li Xuan walked to Xu Ge's side, stepped on his shoulder with one foot, and then asked coldly, "This king asks you, do you have a letter at home with the British public?"
Epistle?
When the others heard Li Xuan's question, their faces became completely solemn.
They don't know what Li Xuan wants to do, so impatient to turn against the British government?
You must know that although Li Jingye is not his grandfather Li Qian, his ancestors are kind, in the army, in the locality, and I don't know how many protégés are old.
In this, if someone makes a stumbling block for Li Xuan, he will immediately have a lot of trouble.
"Woo woo......" Xu Ge struggled hard, but his voice was all strangled by the strips of cloth on his mouth.
At this time, I saw Li Xuan suddenly pat his forehead and suddenly said, "Alas, you almost forgot to see this king's memory, your mouth is blocked, come, this king will help you untie it."
Lord Xu raised his head consciously, and then in an instant, a sharp sword light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes.
"Ahh Xu Ge suddenly screamed, and the whole person kept rolling backwards.
In the blink of an eye, it scurried to the wall and clung to it.
It's like a scared gecko.
Suddenly, Xu Ge's whole body trembled violently, and all his reason returned to his mind in an instant.
At this time, Xu Ge suddenly realized that the rope on his body and the strip of cloth in his mouth had all been directly cut by the sword just now.
Raising his head, Xu Ge looked at the villa, and at this time, he was shocked to find that all the officials and soldiers in the villa were all looking at him with a surprised face.
"Someone!" The long sword in Li Xuan's hand had been sheathed at some point, and he raised his head very casually and ordered in a low voice, "Record."
Cheng Yan immediately stepped forward and took out a blue booklet from his carry-on belt, as well as a brush with a pen sleeve on it.
The brush is taken out of the pen case, and the tip of the pen has been dipped in ink at this moment.
In a very short time, Cheng Yan was ready to be the secretary.
"After the suspect Xu Ge was arrested, he grabbed his sword and wanted to escape, and Qianniuwei killed him by order of the king of Nanchang County." As she spoke, Li Xuan looked at Xu Ge with a sneer on the corner of her mouth, and said softly: "In this way, Jinhua County is good, this king is good, and the British Duke is also good, but it's a pity that you are going to become the scapegoat for all this."
As he spoke, Li Xuan raised his right hand.
In an instant, all the Qianniu guards around him pulled out the crossbows they carried with them and aimed them directly at Xu Ge......
Under the cold arrow light, Xu Ge's whole person suddenly slipped down against the wall, and at the same time collapsed and shouted loudly: "No, don't kill me, don't kill me, I'll move, I'll just find it, what do you want to know I will tell you, please don't kill me, don't kill me."
Under the brutal threat of death, Xu Ge's spirit collapsed directly.
The corners of Li Xuan's mouth showed a slight sneer, his right hand was put down, and the crossbow in the hands of the surrounding Qianniuwei was also put down at the same time.
With his hand on the hilt of the sword, Li Xuan walked in front of Xu Ge step by step.
Looking at Xu Ge, who was covering his face in pain, the sneer on Li Xuan's face disappeared instantly.
"Tell the king, where is your secret letter to the Duke of England?" Li Xuan's face suddenly became solemn.
It was a surprise to be able to get Li Jingye's handle this time.
Li Jingye, although he is quite intelligent and strategic, he is also very ambitious.
How to target him in the future will be carefully considered later, but now he can get Li Jingye's handle and send it to the palace.
So whether the emperor thinks that Li Xuan is selfless, or whether he really has any selfish intentions, but just looking at the contradiction between Li Xuan and the military, it is definitely a good thing for the emperor.
For Empress Wu, the same is true.
"Fundamental...... There is no secret letter at all." Xu Ge looked at Li Xuan with some fear, and seeing Li Xuan's expression of extreme consternation for a moment, he hurriedly added, "Actually...... In fact, there is no connection between him and the British duke, although his surname is Xu, and although he is also from Caozhou, he is not a relative of the British duke, and he is a hypocrisy."
"Impostor?" Li Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
Behind him, Ning Yi and Lu Jin relaxed at the same time.
Although they are not afraid of Li Jingye, they don't want to grudge with Li Jingye for no reason.
Regardless of whether Xu Ge really has nothing to do with Li Jingye, or whether he wants to bear all the blame alone, it has nothing to do with them.
Now, it only depends on how King Nanchang intends to end this matter.
At this time, I suddenly heard Li Xuan say with some surprise: "You said that you have nothing to do with the British government, this king believes."
Everyone present looked at Li Xuan in surprise.
Seeing Li Xuan's eyes calmly, he asked, "So, how did you get so many fields right now, or more precisely, whose fields are you holding right now, who are you holding for you, and how did you come to be the rank of a Jiupin military general?"
Standing so close, Xu Ge's heartbeat couldn't hide from Li Xuan at all.
Whether what he said was true or false, Li Xuan could judge at a glance.
Therefore, he is really not Li Jingye's clansman.
Although this made Li Xuan a little disappointed, it was just a disappointment.
At this moment, a greater doubt arose in his heart, who was the owner behind this property.
Actually arranged such a person to come here to disguise, what exactly does he have, the purpose.
Xu Ge glanced at Li Xuan in fear, and then looked at Ning Yi and Xu Jin with solemn faces behind him.
Although the face is a little embarrassed,
But he still changed his words and said: "It's the Qian family, more precisely, it's Qian Qilang, and now these fields and properties are all his, and they belong to him alone."
