The torches held high one by one illuminated the entire Ningyi Fang.

The cold wind blows, and the fire flickers, but it does not extinguish.

The people in the surrounding houses looked carefully at the Qianniuwei and Jin Wuwei standing on the street through the crack in the door.

Li Xuan's eyes stared at the head of the house like a cold arrow, although the head looked a little uncomfortable, but he still arched his hand and said: "This house was actually originally the house of the Wang family, and it was under the name of the king of Yue's mansion to record Wang Shenjun, and later Wang Shenjun came over in person and transferred this house to the name of the British duke. ”

"King Yue's record king joins the army?" Li Xuan's brows suddenly furrowed, and he subconsciously looked at Xu Zhutou to the side.

Gao Ping and Leng Liang were also at a loss, and they didn't know what the relationship between King Yue's record Wang joining the army and the British Duke Li Jingye was.

Xu Zhutou had a wry smile on his face, but under the persecution of Li Xuan's blazing gaze, he still honestly arched his hand and said: "Back to the prince, the head of the workshop is talking about Wang Fangqing, who joined the army in the Yue Wangfu, Wang joined the army and was born in the Langya Wang family, and his sister is the mother of the British duke." ”

Li Jingye's mother's surname is Wang, and Li Xuan really doesn't know this.

And even if he knew, he would subconsciously think it was the Taiyuan Wang, not the Langya Wang.

Gao Ping seemed to remember something at this time, and said: "Back to the prince, in the ninth year of Zhenguan, the British prince married his son Li Zhen and married the daughter of the Langya Wang. The Li family was born in Caozhou, Shandong, not far from Langya, and the Langya Wang family now lives mostly in the capital. ”

Li Xuan nodded slowly, he understood a little.

In the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people.

The Langya Wang clan and the Chenjun Xie clan were the first families to move from the Central Plains to the south of the Yangtze River during the two Jin and Southern Dynasties.

Even if he has been in charge of the Jiangnan family for many years, under the political turmoil, the two families have gradually begun to decline.

The Sui and Tang dynasties unified the world, and although the Wang and Xie clans still left a large number of descendants in the south of the Yangtze River, many clansmen moved to Luoyang, Chang'an, in order to seek a future, and married and colluded with the new noble group.

Li Xuan didn't expect Li Xuan to let his son marry the daughter of the Langya Wang family.

But think about it, it is not a big deal to marry the daughter of the Langya Wang family.

However, Li Jingye's uncle turned out to be the record of King Yue and joined the army, which is interesting.

Who is King Yue and what is Li Jingye, these two people are mixed together, I am afraid that the emperor will also pay attention to it.

Li Xuan waved his hand, scattered his thoughts, looked at the head of the workshop on the side, and shouted in a low voice: "Go knock on the door." ”

"Whoa!" The head of the workshop did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door.

The side door slowly opened, and a fifty-year-old man wearing an ochre-colored robe walked out with a solemn face.

Looking behind him, he could faintly see more servants and maids watching out of the courtyard gate.

When the old man saw the head of the workshop, he took the lead in saluting and said, "Li Guang has seen the head of the workshop. ”

"Elder Li is polite." The head hurriedly returned the salute, and said at the same time: "Elder Li, the government is inspecting, please cooperate." ”

"Whoa!" Li Guang glanced at Li Xuan in the distance, hesitated slightly, but still looked sideways, and said in a low voice: "Open the middle door." ”

"Yes!"

……

The middle door of the Li Mansion was wide open, and Li Xuan stood in front of the middle gate, and Gao Ping, Leng Liang and the others behind him, although their faces were expressionless, they could still see a trace of apprehension in their expressions.

"The villain Li Guang visited the king of Nanchang County, the king of the county." Li Guang bowed his hand to Li Xuan, and bowed down heavily.

Li Xuan waved his hand slightly, and said: "Elder Li doesn't have to be so polite, although this king has no dealings with the British duke, but he has a little dealings with the county order, and this time I came here for the peace of your mansion." ”

Hearing Li Xuan mention Li Jingyou, Li Guang breathed a sigh of relief slightly: "It turns out that the prince knows the second master, and the prince is invited." ”

Li Xuan waved his hand, stood firmly in place, and said in a deep voice: "This king and the county order of Xukuo don't know each other much, a few months ago, the saint rewarded a throne, in Zhongnan Town, under the rule of the county order, he sent someone to send a letter of worship, but unfortunately this king has something to leave Beijing...... Forget about that, now, let all the servants and maids in your house come out. ”

"Whoa!" Li Guang immediately surrendered his hand, without the slightest hesitation, and quickly walked in and called for people.

Li Xuan looked sideways at Gao Ping and Leng Scale, and said in a deep voice: "The two of you are the talents of the Criminal Department, if you want to find someone here, you should have some experience, so the next matter of finding someone will be entrusted to the two, and this king will order Jin Wuwei to cooperate." ”

Gao Ping and Leng Liang glanced at each other, and for a moment they felt tricky.

This is the Hangzhou Courtyard of the British Mansion, if the traitor Wen Xu is found here, then it will inevitably make the British Duke also contaminated with the suspicion of a traitor, and when the time comes, they will offend the British Prince, not to mention, even their own boss Pei Yan will be offended together.

Leng Yan glanced up at Li Xuan, looked at his firm eyes that seemed to be smiling, sighed heavily in his heart, and then arched his hand: "Then there are all the brothers of Jin Wuwei." ”

"You're welcome." Li Xuan looked sideways at Cui Ding and said softly: "Cui Ding, you accompany these two brothers from the Criminal Department to go in, and pay careful attention to the secret passages of the organs in the mansion, the fake wall secret room, I think that the person should be hiding here." ”

"Subordinates obey orders." Cui Ding did not hesitate at all, and immediately gave up.

At this time, the housekeeper Li Guang had already come out with all the servants and maids in the house.

Li Xuan's sharp gaze swept over everyone, and then asked in a deep voice, "But everyone is here?" ”

"Back to the prince, everyone in the palace is here." Li Guang did not hesitate to give his hand.

Li Xuan nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Li Guang, this king asks you, in the past three months, have any outsiders entered this courtyard. ”

Li Guang did not hesitate, and immediately bowed his hand and said: "No, the Li Mansion is strictly guarded, and without the permission of the Lord, outsiders are not allowed to enter lightly." ”

"It's good if you don't have it." Li Xuan nodded, then turned to look at Gao Ping Leng Scales, and said softly: "Both of you have heard it, in this mansion, no outsiders enter or leave, and all the people in the mansion are here, so after entering the mansion, everyone who sees people will be captured, and if there is resistance, they will be hunted and killed." ”

"The lower officials obey the order." Gao Ping and Leng Liang looked stunned, and then immediately entered the mansion and began to search carefully.

Li Xuan stood calmly outside the courtyard, raised his eyes slightly, and high in the air, a red-bellied eagle was hovering in the sky.

Li Xuan looked sideways at Li Guang and asked in a deep voice, "Which one is Zhao Si?" ”

A stocky man wearing a gray cloth robe with a nervous expression walked out, saw Li Xuan, bowed and said, "Villain......"

Li Xuan waved his hand, waved his hand directly and asked, "You once told the head of the house that you ever lost something in the house?" ”

"It's just some food, it's not a ......" Zhao Si's words hadn't finished speaking, Li Guang on the side had already stepped forward directly, slapped Zhao Si in the face, and slapped him to the ground, and shouted at the same time: "Such a big thing, why didn't you say it before?" ”

Zhao Si lay on the ground, opening his mouth as if he was about to say something, but in Li Guang's vicious eyes, all the words were held back.

"Elder Li doesn't have to be nervous, if it's normal, losing a little food is not a big deal." Li Xuan glanced at Li Guang with a cold look in his eyes, and Li Guang immediately surrendered his hand respectfully, and then retreated.

Li Xuan stood in front of Zhao Si again, and asked in a calm voice: "You said that you lost some food at home, where and when did you lose it, do you remember?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Si glanced at Li Guang timidly, at this time, Li Xuan suddenly took a step across, directly blocking Li Guang's eyes, his right hand fell on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and in silence, the blade of the sword had been unsheathed for three points.

Zhao Si's face changed, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and finally he had to say honestly: "It's ...... in Sanjin Courtyard."

"I'll kill you." Li Guang rushed over with great anger all of a sudden, and Jin Wuwei on the side hurriedly stopped him, but Li Guang was still cursing angrily: "Sanjin Courtyard is the master's courtyard, you dare to sneak in without permission......"

"Alright." Li Xuan's cold eyes were directly nailed to Li Guang, and Li Guang's words were immediately held back.

Li Xuan looked sideways at Zhang Huan: "Go in and report it, and say that the traitor is likely to be hiding in Sanjin Courtyard, let them search carefully." ”

"Whoa!" Zhang Huan immediately gave up his hand, and then walked quickly into the courtyard.

Li Xuan stood calmly outside the courtyard, and it didn't take long for him to hear a sudden sound of fighting in the depths of the courtyard.

"Found it."

……

His body was covered with blood, his hair was scattered, his hands and legs hung weakly on the ground, and he was dragged out directly.

[Wen Xu, Xiaoshan County Lieutenant, born in the Luling Wen family, the hall master of Yuhang Hall without life, the congenital true seed back realm]

Li Xuan waved his hand lightly, and Jin Wuwei's soldiers immediately threw Wen Xu to the ground like a dead dog.

Immediately after, a soldier of Qianniu Wei immediately stepped forward, and a basin of cold water had been poured directly on Wen Xu's face.

His whole body twitched violently, and then he lay directly on the ground as if he was completely unconscious.

Li Xuan walked calmly in front of Wen Xu, and said in a cold voice: "This king knows that you have woken up, this king only asks you one question, as long as you answer truthfully, you can be handed over to the two masters of the criminal department." ”

Gao Ping and Leng Yan couldn't help but step forward slightly, staring at Wen Xu with blazing eyes.

Wen Xu still didn't move at all, Li Xuan raised his head, looked at the mansion in front of him, and said softly: "The British Duke has always been low-key, and he is this king, if he wasn't involved today, he wouldn't have known that the British Duke still had this mansion in Hangzhou, so ...... This king wants to know, how did you find this house, don't say it's a mistake, don't talk about this kind of deceptive nonsense. ”

Li Xuan asked in a word, and Gao Ping and Leng Scale's eyes suddenly lit up.

Although the British Duke is not easy to mess with, if Li Jingye can be involved in this matter, it will definitely be able to relieve Pei Yan's pressure.

Wen Xu raised his head with great effort, stared at Li Xuan deadly, and then lowered his head heavily, but his mouth was already bulging.

Obviously, whenever Li Xuan asked one more question, he immediately bit his tongue and committed suicide.

"Fang Zheng!" Li Xuan looked sideways at Fang Zheng, and Fang Zheng immediately arched his hand: "The villain is here." ”

"You have seen the face of this man clearly, and this king asks you, have you ever seen this man?" Li Xuan asked in a word, and Li Guang on one side had already changed his face.

With a "choking" sound, the long knife came out of its sheath, and the Qianniu knife in Su Baotong's hand was already on Li Guang's neck.

Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng couldn't help but shudder, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, but finally he said: "At the beginning of October, this person came to Anningfang. ”

"Who's with you?"

"Fa Cao joins the army, Xue Zhongzhang."

Fang Zheng's words, everyone present was stunned, Xue Zhongzhang and Wen Xu actually came to the British Mansion together.

Li Xuan had already stood beside Li Guang at this time: "Old man, can you tell this king, why Xue Facao is here, and why are you protecting this person?" ”

"Old decay no!" Li Guang suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Xuan with a frightened face.
