In the side room of the west courtyard, Qin Dull Jiaogan was draped in a black velvet coat, sitting alone in front of the window, and "Spring and Autumn" was thrown aside at will.

Looking at the waning moon overhead, the cool air invaded, and Qin Dujiao was silently calculating the time in his heart.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, Qin Jiaogan subconsciously looked out of the door, and suddenly saw Zhou Qian appear at the gate of the courtyard, and then Qin Jun led someone to greet him.

I don't know what Zhou Qian and Qin Jun said, and immediately after, most of the Jin Wuwei in the courtyard left one after another.

Only a few people were left to guard the door.

Qin Dull Jiaogan looked at everything in front of him in disbelief, and suddenly, he turned his head to look at the other bamboo forests and rockeries in the courtyard under the shadow, this time, he really didn't find any traces, those people were really gone.

Or rather, those people didn't come back at all.

When Qianniuwei left en masse before, Qin Dull knew that something must have happened.

But what exactly happened?

Qianniuwei's people left, and only Jin Wuwei was left, all of whom were guarding the Ming Sentinel.

Qin knew in his heart that they were worried about being killed.

Worried that he would be killed by the King of the East China Sea, the allies who were originally fighting against Datang with him became the ones who wanted to kill him, but the Datang that he had to deal with became the ones who protected him.

Qin Dujiao knew in his heart that it was useful for Datang to keep him, and he was about to return to Silla, whether it was to communicate with the Wenwu Dynasty or to get something from himself, as long as he was still valuable, Datang would not kill anyone.

But the King of the East China Sea, in order to greatly intensify the contradiction between the Tang Dynasty and Silla, will really kill him in the end.

Wait a minute......

A thought flashed through Qin Jiaogan's mind in an instant, and the next moment, he had already rushed out of the chamber and rushed directly to the door, and at this time, Jin Wuwei at the door suddenly forked the long lance and stopped him.

Qin Dull Jiaogan retreated a little curtly, but then he took a step forward and arched his hand: "This general, I want to ask you to see the king of Nanchang County, I don't know if you can report it?"

The guard at the door glanced at Qin Dull Jiaogan with contempt, and then stood up straight with a grim face.

Qin Dull Jiaogan bowed his hand again, and said in a deep voice: "I have a secret about the personnel layout of the King of the East China Sea in Yangzhou to be presented to the King of Nanchang, please ......

Before Qin Jiaogan finished speaking, he saw the four Jin Wuwei at the door, all of whom turned their heads to look at him at the same time, their eyes full of contempt and disdain,

A trace of horror suddenly appeared on Qin Dujiao's face, and then this trace of horror completely disappeared in the depths of his eyes in an instant.

Then, with a disappointed face, he turned around and walked towards the house.

Qin Dull Horn grabbed the door hard, wanting to throw it over, but at the last moment, he still controlled his desire to vent, and slowly closed the door.

He leaned his back firmly against the door, and then slowly slid to the ground.

The layout of the king of the East China Sea in the entire Yangzhou was served by the king of Nanchang.

In just two days, the King of the East China Sea has been laying out in Yangzhou for more than ten years, and the situation that has been formed by hard work has been easily overturned by the King of Nanchang, which sounds somewhat magical.

However, Qin Xuan, who knows Li Xuan very well, knows very well that the king of Nanchang looks young, but his methods are very old.

Especially for people like the Tianyin Sect and the East Sea King, it seems to be very effective, although the reason for this is somewhat unclear, but this does not affect the current situation.

The foundation of the king of the East China Sea in Yangzhou was all destroyed by the king of Nanchang.

This also meant that Silla would no longer be able to make any secret decisions about the Datang Hub.

Silla and Datang went to war, and the advantage was lost by one point.

Suddenly, Qin stood up violently, walked quickly to the table, placed the paper, sharpened the ink and began to write quickly, but when he finished writing, he put the whole paper on the oil lamp and lit it quickly.

Seeing the paper quickly turn to ashes, Qin Blunthorn Gan immediately turned around and came from the other

On the outer piece of paper, I tore off a section that was the width of my thumb and the length of my index finger, quickly wrote a few small words on it, and then quickly hid it under the celadon vase on the side.

After doing everything, Qin Dull Jiao Gan let out a long sigh of relief, but at this time, he subconsciously raised his head and looked in the direction of the courtyard gate, the four Jin Wuwei looked at each other, and none of them turned their heads to look at him.

Qin Dull Jiaogan suddenly felt a chill, permeating all parts of his body.

Without the king of the East China Sea to deliver the news for them, the harm that the Silla people can cause to the Tang Dynasty is rapidly decreasing, and in the winter battle, Silla will fight alone, and if one is not careful, it is also possible to be slaughtered and exterminated.

Thinking of this, Qin Jiaogan did not hesitate at all, and immediately took out the note under the celadon vase again.

Quickly put it on the oil lamp and burn it out.

In the end, he immediately tore up a small piece of paper and wrote it again.

Li Xuan walked in the quiet governor's mansion, the soldiers patrolling around, the maids and servants who passed by, saw Li Xuan, and immediately bowed slightly, Li Xuan waved his hand very casually, and the soldiers, maids and servants immediately went busy.

As soon as he entered his side courtyard, the familiar footsteps sounded behind him, Li Xuan turned around, Su Baotong quickly walked to his side, whispered a few words in his ear, Li Xuan nodded calmly.

"Tomorrow, the King of Linhai County will come to visit Dou Weng, and those people around him will definitely take the opportunity to get in touch with Qin Yu, be careful, don't let them take the opportunity to kill people." Li Xuan's expression calmed down.

"Subordinates obey orders." Su Baotong immediately turned around.

Li Xuan walked into the study, and in the room, Yu Ze was sorting out the documents in his hand, but when Li Xuan arrived, he immediately stopped, and said to Li Xuan: "Lord Wang, my subordinates heard that someone has arrested the prince of Shi'an County, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

"Yes, it's Xue Zhongzhang, he is Pei Yan's nephew, and he used the warrant given by Pei Yan." Li Xuan walked into the house, looked at the documents in the study, shook his head and said softly, "Don't accept the things, this king still wants to see it again."

"Whoa!" Yu Ze arched his hand slightly, then took a step back and looked up at Li Xuan: "Even if the Criminal Department wants to do something, it has to pass Dou Changshi's level first, right?"

"Yes, so, he passed." Li Xuan calmly found the household files of the Shi'an County Gong family and began to read them carefully.

Yu Ze stood behind Li Xuan, his face becoming serious.

When Li Xuan hunted and killed the demon monk without anger, Dou Xuande allowed Xue Zhongzhang to capture Li Xizhi, the prince of Shi'an County, who Li Xuan spared, which was undoubtedly equivalent to stabbing Li Xuan in the back.

There were too many inexplicable flavors behind this, and Yu Ze's heart suddenly sank.

After a while, Yu Ze still couldn't help it, and looked at Li Xuan with a somewhat ugly face: "Lord Wang, don't you care about this matter?"

The corners of Li Xuan's mouth suddenly appeared with a sneer: "Uncle Yu, if this king is not from the same clan, in fact, he will also chase this matter down, originally he just took a step back and handed over the disposal to the center, but now it seems that this matter is far from being as simple as it seems, especially now, Pei Yan has made a move."

Li Xuan raised his head, looked at Yu Ze, and said softly: "If this king remembers correctly, at the beginning of the Zichen Palace, the Queen of Heaven once ordered the military department and the criminal department to track down the matter of the king of the East China Sea, so this matter is actually holy will. Dou Weng can't stop it, and this king can't do it either, whoever wants to be strong at this time, the queen of heaven will make him look good."

Yu Ze couldn't help but gasp: "So, then Secretary Pei Lang is waiting for the prince to come out for the prince of Shi'an County."

"Of course, we don't have a good relationship with the Criminal Department Shangshu!" Li Xuan shook his head gently

At this time, Xue Zhongzhang took the risk of offending Li Xuan and forcibly imprisoned Li Xianzhi, the prince of Shi'an County, just to force Li Xuan to do something irrational, and then take the opportunity to attack him.

"At this time, if this king does it, it is suspected of covering up, if this king does not do it, it is a tacit acquiescence that there is a problem with the public of Shi'an County, and any kind of dirty water can be poured on this king, but in the end, he easily let people out." Li Xuan's last sentence made Yu Ze stunned.

Li Xuan followed

Shi said: "The prince of Shi'an County is a clan, and to deal with him, there is either an order from the Qincha or an official document from the Zongzheng Temple, Xue Zhongzhang has nothing, only a warrant from the criminal department, and putting people under house arrest is nothing more than sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai and luring the snake out."

"Yes, he is not Pei Yan himself, the secretary of the Criminal Department, so he can only be imprisoned, not tortured, let alone interrogated." Yu Ze suddenly came over.

"Therefore, this king and Dou Weng jointly wrote a chapter to impeach the prince of Shi'an County for the crime of laxity and cover-up." Li Xuan lowered his head again, as if there was something terrible in the document in front of him.

Yu Ze breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Xuan with some uncertainty: "Then this matter is over?"

"Oh, it's still early!" Li Xuan chuckled, shook his head, and said, "The Duke of Shi'an County is a clan, but there are also many factions in the clan, and the Duke of Shi'an County has never been alone, and if Xue Zhongzhang doesn't do it well, he will immediately be attacked by others."

Yu Ze asked cautiously, "Then Pei Yan should be able to help with this matter, right?"

Li Xuan shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm afraid it's more than that, I suspect that Pei Yan has already seen through the relationship between the people and the clan after the completion of this whole thing, so he threw a chess piece to lure people into the chess game, and then targeted it."

Pei Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, he has seen many strange cases in his life, I don't know how much more than Li Xuan has heard of.

What is happening in Yangzhou now, it is very likely that Pei Yan has long been calculating.

After all, as the secretary of the Criminal Department, Pei Yan's information is far above Li Xuan.

"Even if I stand on top of this?" Yu Ze looked at Li Xuan with some concern.

Li Xuan smiled lightly and said, "This case, it seems that it has been closed, but in fact it is far from the beginning, although Li Huainian is only a professor in Yangzhou, but after all, he is the son of the Duke of Ankang County, and the number of clans that can be contacted behind him is terrifying, and he will build a dense network for the King of the East China Sea."

Yu Ze's face suddenly showed a trace of shock: "Then, this matter ......

"Everything is subject to His Majesty's will." Li Xuan's expression was unusually calm, but he said very solemnly in the depths of his eyes: "If Li Huainian is not dead, this king will find out the list and deliver it to Chang'an immediately, and all hidden dangers can be removed, but now, he is dead, and without evidence, His Majesty will not move the prince of Shi'an."

Yu Ze was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but nod in agreement,

"In addition, don't forget one more thing, the two sons of the Duke of Shi'an County, one is the squire of the Ministry of Rites, and the other is the general of the forbidden army, especially the general of the forbidden army." Li Xuan's eyes suddenly sharpened, and the calculation behind this matter was far more than that.
