The housekeepers were desperate, sweating profusely, and the housekeeper regretted it even more, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

But in the face of the wolf-like servants, they could only abandon their weapons and raise their hands to surrender.

The housekeeper gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Lord Chu, you are too insidious!" He used such despicable means to calculate us and others! ”

Zhao Si smiled coldly and said, "Insidious? Vile? I think your Li family is a despicable and shameless person, and you actually want to set fire to the forest!

"Hmph, count you ruthless!" The housekeeper glared at Zhao Si hatefully.

At the same time, Li Xing also led people to the railway track construction site and spread rumors of "forest fires spreading" everywhere.

"Fight the fire! The woods are on fire! Li Xing shouted.

The workers were shocked when they heard the news, and they all ran over and asked, "Fire?" Where is the fire? ”

"There's a fire in the woods to the east, and I just saw the flames rise to the sky!" Li Xing tried his best to act, pointing to the woods to the east, and shouted loudly: "The prince has already brought people to put out the fire, let all of us go over to help put out the fire!" ”

"Oh my God! Gotta get out of the fire! ”

"The forest in the east was cut down by us sharpening our knives, wouldn't it be in vain if we burned it?"

The workers panicked when they heard this, and they all rushed to the east, ready to put out the fire.

Li Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to urge loudly: "Hurry up and put out the fire!" This fire can't be burned! ”

But he thought to himself, "Stupid workers, it's easy to be fooled." They didn't suspect any of the lies I made, how naïve! ”

When dozens of spies mixed with the workers saw this scene, they all immediately got up to "put out the fire", secretly drinking to themselves, thinking that they finally had a chance to destroy the railroad tracks.

"Workers, let's go put out the fire!" A spy pretended to be panicked and urged.

"Yes, yes, hurry up and put out the fire!" Another spy also said, thinking, "When these fools all run to put out the fire, the rails will be destroyed by me!" ”

These spies were scattered among the crowd, some shouting "Everyone, go put out the fire!" Some pretended to go to the government.

However, they didn't know that Li Xing had already secretly laid a net at the construction site, monitoring their every move.

Soon, when all the ordinary workers had gone to "put out the fire", the spies looked around to make sure that no one was there, and then quickly took out the tools of destruction from the hiding place and sneaked to the side of the tracks.

"It's finally our chance!" A spy said excitedly: "This time you must smash the railroad tracks and complete the master's task!" ”

"Yes, such a great opportunity is hard to come by!" Another spy also said: "When the master knows, he will definitely reward us heavily!" ”

"Hurry up and smash the damn rails!" The spies were so excited that they raised their sledgehammers and were about to smash them down.

At this moment, dozens of officials suddenly appeared from all directions, instantly surrounding them.

"W-What?!"

"How can there be officers and soldiers?!"

"You guys want to destroy the railroad tracks?" Li Xing walked out of the crowd and sneered, "Your conspiracy ends here today!" ”

The faces of the spies changed greatly, and they were all stunned, and the tools in their hands fell to the ground with a "click".

"It's over, it's over, it's over!" A spy groaned in despair.

"We're all going to be finished!" The other spy trembled, and fell to his knees with weak legs.

Li Xing nodded with satisfaction, another conspiracy was exposed and smashed, and the wisdom of the prince was really unfathomable!

At this time, the workers who rushed to "put out the fire" also gradually found that there was no fire in the eastern forest area.

"Where is the fire? I don't see a fire in the east! ”

"Could it be fake news?"

The workers looked at each other, puzzled.

At this time, a cry came from afar: "Come back!" Forest fires are fake news! ”

It turned out that Li Xing sent someone to recall these confused workers.

"What, fake news?" The workers hurried back to the construction site, only to see that the spies had been captured.

"It turned out that it was the spies of the Li Mansion who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to destroy the railroad tracks!"

The captured Li Mansion Ding and the housekeeper Li Tie were all dejected, their faces were as white as paper, and they were tied up by the officials and taken back to the yamen.

Li Tie was still unwilling, and shouted loudly: "Chu Ze, you bastard, you bully men and women, abuse public power and personal revenge, and dare to detain the people of my Li Mansion for no reason!" I tell you, this is a blatant perversion of the law! ”

When the officials saw that he was unrepentant, they all wanted to gouge out his tongue at once.

Zhao Si shouted in a deep voice: "Li Tie, do you still dare to quibble? Prince Chu Ze has the evidence in his hand, according to what we have seen and heard, your Li Mansion is obviously plotting to set fire to the forest and destroy the railroad tracks! Do you dare to say that you are innocent? ”

Li Tie's face turned pale, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Nonsense! You framed the Li Mansion, and I tell you, Chu Ze will definitely pay the price! ”

"What an unrepentant scourge!" Li Xing was also annoyed: "He is still quibbling, put these gangsters in prison quickly, I see how long he can quibble!" ”

The officials obeyed the order, tied up Li Tie and the family members one by one, and threw them into the cold and damp prison.

After a while, Chu Ze personally came to the cell and scanned the prisoners coldly.

"You all know what crime you've committed, and how long do you want to quibble?" Chu Ze's voice was light and fluttering, but it made people feel extremely cold.

Li Tie was still unconvinced, and shouted loudly: "Chu Ze, you corrupt officials and corrupt officials, you are doing evil, my Li Mansion is honest and honest, how can you do things that violate the law and discipline?" You've wronged us! ”

"Huh!" Chu Ze sneered and said, "I already have ironclad evidence of your conspiracy in my hands. Do you think I'm going to wronged a good guy? No matter how much you quibble, believe it or not, I'll put you to death! ”

Li Tie's face turned pale, and he finally didn't dare to speak again.

Chu Ze took out all kinds of evidence collected by Li Xing before, and listed the conspiracy crimes of the Li Mansion to prepare arson and sabotage the railroad tracks one by one.

"You...... Where did you get these things? Li Tie's face was as white as paper, and he asked tremblingly.

"What else do you want to defend with evidence gathered through lawful means?" Chu Ze sneered.

Li Tie opened his mouth and finally didn't dare to quibble any more.

"Okay, shut up for me, answer the interrogation of the officials carefully, and gather all the evidence of your guilt one by one!" Chu Ze ordered in a deep voice.

So the officials began to interrogate the prisoners one by one.

Everyone has completely lost their fighting spirit, and soon revealed the conspiracy of the Li Mansion.

"Woo...... It was the old man who told us to set fire to the forest in the middle of the night and create chaos......"

"We were ordered to destroy the railroad tracks while fighting fires...... Ouch! ”

The prisoners wept and cried one by one, confessing all the crimes of the Li Mansion.
