The clan disciples in the village were quickly besieged and killed by the attackers, and with the retinue of Wu You and Li Jing'an, it was impossible for these low-level monks to escape.

Because tonight's attack was mainly aimed at Li Ye, the other sect disciples didn't have much trouble, and even Li Qi, who was already injured, survived, but his injuries were much worse.

After a day and two battles, the children of the clan who reunited together lost their previous pampering spirit, and honestly sat around with a bonfire in a slightly spacious farm compound, not daring to separate again.

After listening to Wu You's introduction of the true identity of the attacker and the sinister plot of Xing Guogong Li Guanshu, the children of the clan were indignant and shouted that they would break Li Guanshu's body into pieces.

They were originally the pride of the sky, but this time they were used by Li Guanshu as fools, but they were really deceived by him, and it was inevitable that they would become angry.

Li Qian was the most angry, because he suffered the most losses in the attack, and even his entourage died, and he scolded Li Guanshu angrily, eager to eat his flesh and skin.

After scolding Li Guanshu for a bloody episode, everyone thanked Li Ye one after another.

If Li Ye hadn't noticed Li Guanshu's calculations in time, he was afraid that they would have to count the money if they were sold by Li Guanshu, it would not be a shameful problem, but they would be tied up by Li Guanshu on the thief ship, and they would have to be coerced by the other party in the future - after all, the identity of the thieves of the Niushou Mountain Taoist Temple was confirmed through their hands.

Therefore, everyone's gratitude to Li Ye is sincere, and there is no moisture.

After Song Yuanqiao took Li Jing'an's Pei Yuan Dan, he finally walked back from the Ghost Gate, but his complexion was not good, and it was better than dying, but his life was temporarily saved, and everyone could interrogate him.

Everyone was used by Li Guanshu, and inexplicably fell into the battle between Li Guanshu and Niushou Mountain Taoist Temple, of course, to find out the origin of this matter.

"I won't say it!" Song Yuanqiao's breath was weak, but his eyes were very ruthless, and he looked like he was at home, "If I say it, Li Guanshu won't let me go!"

Li Ye said contemptuously: "If you don't say it, you have to die now." ”

Song Yuanqiao stiffened his neck and said: "If you kill me, no one will be able to testify against Li Guanshu, and your grievances will be in vain!"

He had a pretty clear idea.

"Straight mother thief! torture him, peel his skin and cramp, don't believe him and don't say it!" Li Qi shouted, he now hated Song Yuanqiao and Li Guanshu to the core.

A look of panic flashed in Song Yuanqiao's eyes, but he quickly calmed down, and said with a hideous face: "It's a big deal that I committed suicide by blowing myself up, and no one can please anyone!"

Li Qian was furious, and wanted to say something, Li Ye waved his hand and asked Song Yuanqiao: "Say, what do you want?"

Song Yuanqiao was stunned: "What does King An mean, you want to buy me?"

Li Ye laughed and said, "Don't be stupid. Li Guanshu is dead, even if you die, there will be people in the Taoist Temple of Niushou Mountain, besides, we have a prince here, a county lord, and a prince, which one of them said it is not full of weight? The reason why we want you to confess is because your words do have some weight, but if you insist on begging for death, we will not let you be a mere county lieutenant and wantonly offend our majesty. ”

Song Yuanqiao's lips moved.

Li Ye continued: "You also saw it just now, if I hadn't saved you, you would have died under the sword qi, it can be seen that the people who came were ready to kill you, and they had already abandoned you." After all, you are just a petty official, and the reason why I am willing to talk nonsense with you now is just because you know what I want to know, not how important you are, Li Guanshu can kill you at will, and I can. ”

Speaking of this, Li Ye took out Lu Gujian: "Li Guanshu is dead, if you confess honestly, all the people present are people with status, it is easy to promise you a great future, if you don't confess, then die now." ”

As he spoke, Lu Gujian fell.

"I said!" Seeing Lu Gujian in front of him, Song Yuanqiao hurriedly shouted, because he saw Li Ye's determination and indifference to his life and death.

Lu Gujian had already reached his forehead and touched his eyebrows, if he had just shouted a step late, he would really die.

Song Yuanqiao was so frightened that his face was bloodless, and Li Ye's decisive killing made him tremble.

"His Royal Highness King An...... Can you really save my life after this incident?Promise me a good future?" Song Yuanqiao swallowed his saliva, of course he is not afraid of death, he is not a dead soldier, he said so much, but he just wanted to have more chips for himself, to be more direct, in fact, it was what he said before, let Li Ye buy him, but the price was higher.

Song Yuanqiao also figured it out, if Li Ye and the others could return to Chang'an, Li Guanshu would really be finished.

"I'm the prince of the imperial dynasty, and I still need to be suspicious of my words?" Li Ye's jaw raised slightly, and his arrogant appearance immediately showed his impatience again, "If you want to say it, say it quickly, I have never been very patient." ”

Song Yuanqiao had no room to struggle, so he had to be obedient, and he quickly made the truth of the matter clear.

The officials in Juxian County were all promoted by Li Guanshu, so this is his land, and he has a lot of land here - Li Guanshu is Wei Baoheng's right-hand man, with huge power, and has been accumulating money and annexing fertile land.

Some time ago, Li Guanshu took a fancy to the thousands of acres of fertile land on the bank of the Lishui River, the landlord was a member surnamed Fang, that is, a small landlord, he sold at a low price, the other party did not agree, and the attitude was surprisingly tough, and even insulted Li Guanshu as a traitor between words, which angered Li Guanshu, so he sent monks to assassinate several farmers in the other party's manor, and then colluded with the officials of Juxian County, framed Fang Yuanwai, and put him in prison.

These things were done by Song Yuanqiao, he thought that after arresting Fang Yuanwai, the other party's family would give in, and there was a clan brother outside Fang Yuan, who practiced in Niushou Mountain Taoist Temple, and immediately rushed to take Fang Yuanwai's family members to Chang'an to sue the emperor.

Li Guanshu and Song Yuanqiao, of course, will not allow such a thing to happen, Li Guanshu sent a henchman who practiced qi at the fifth level, that is, the soapy official, to ambush and kill the Taoist priest of Niushou Mountain halfway, this is a matter of nine out of ten, but the Taoist priest is also thoughtful, and even let his fellow disciples secretly follow, and in the last scuffle, although the soapy official killed a lot of family members outside the party, he let the wife of the person outside the party run away with the Taoist.

Afterwards, Song Yuanqiao went to the Taoist Temple of Niushou Mountain, wanting to rely on Li Guanshu's power and prestige to let the other party hand over his brother and wife outside the Fang Yuan, but the Taoist Temple didn't buy it at all, and almost arrested Song Yuanqiao, and threatened to escort Fang Yuan's wife to Chang'an.

There are several quite powerful monks on Niushou Mountain, and Li Guanshu is not sure that he can surround and kill them all and not let one escape.

Li Guanshu was furious, he simply didn't do anything, on the one hand, he sent people to block the Niushou Mountain Road, and on the other hand, he sent people to block the Niushou Mountain Road, and planned this conspiracy, that is, he wanted to use the power of the imperial court to eradicate the Niushou Mountain Taoist Temple, and not give the other party a chance to tell the truth, and as long as the other party's identity as an anti-thief is characterized, no one will listen to what they say at that time.

After listening to Song Yuanqiao's confession, everyone was very indignant and condemned Li Guanshu's shameless behavior of perverting the law for bribes and disregarding human life.

"This Li Guanshu is simply bold, he just bought at a low price and wantonly annexed other people's fields, and even dared to send people to pretend to be thieves and harm hundreds of lives in several mountain villages! He really thought that with Wei Gong behind his back, he would be able to do anything wrong, turn black and white upside down, and ignore the king's law! This kind of traitor is really a crime that cannot be punished!" Li Jing'an was so angry that the bruises on his forehead burst out.

"This kind of person should be cut with a thousand knives!" Wu You also clenched his fists and said angrily.

Everyone was indignant, but Li Ye's heart was unwavering.

The so-called struggle for power and profit is just an ordinary phenomenon, which powerful minister has not harmed the public and private, and has not accumulated money?

If it is a peaceful and prosperous world, it will be enough, and the behavior of the ministers will be much more restrained, but at present, the Tang Dynasty, the government is dark, and the traitors abuse power, this phenomenon will naturally intensify to the point of "appalling" - if the officials and the people are safe, the powerful and the common people are in harmony, and everyone lives well, then the world will not be in chaos.

"Why didn't His Royal Highness King An speak?" Seeing that Li Ye had been silent and his expression was indifferent, Li Jing'an was a little strange.

Li Ye said: "If there is no such land annexation in the world, the Juntian system and the government military system will not be destroyed, there will not be so many displaced people in Kyushu, and there will not be so many feudal towns. ”

When he said this, everyone was at a loss.

These clan children who have not yet come out and have not experienced much of the world will naturally not know that the soldiers and generals of the feudal towns are actually mainly homeless people - these people who have been rich and noble, after forcibly occupying their fields and properties with various tricks, lose their livelihood and are forced to leave their hometowns, of course, they will be resentful and angry, and after being recruited as military generals by various feudal towns, they will not be very kind, and it is logical to become arrogant generals.

These political secrets, Li Ye has no plans to say much for the time being, that is the problem he will really face after he comes to Sunrise Town, at the moment, he said to everyone: "Let's discuss it, go to Niushou Mountain Taoist Temple, I always feel that Li Guanshu will not be so good." ”

In a valley thirty miles away from Luoping Village, the soap-clothed official who had previously followed Song Yuanqiao's side was standing respectfully behind a person who was silent for a long time facing the deep and empty valley with his hands behind his back.

It was Li Guanshu.

"My subordinates really couldn't imagine that Li Ye's house could see through the arrangement of the Guogong, and in a very short period of time, he set up a bureau for his subordinates and others, so that those children of the clan were involved in this matter and stood on his side. The soapy official sent Li Guanshu to plead guilty, "The subordinates are ineffective, please punish the country!"

Li Guanshu didn't speak, he was angry and thinking.

After a long time, Li Guanshu said in a deep voice: "Wei Tianhe, my father has always trusted you, so he sent you to Juxian County to help the master Song Yuanqiao deal with the affairs here." But now that more than a month has passed, you have missed one after another, which makes my father very disappointed. If it weren't for the fact that my father was not at ease this time, he decided to take a look at it temporarily, and the situation was out of control!"

Wei Tianhe, who was pretending to be an official errand, changed his expression slightly, he knew that he had done a bad job in intercepting and killing the Taoist priest of Niushou Mountain and the family members of Fang Yuan, and now he had lost his hand in Luoping Village, and he wanted Li Guanshu to come to the rescue, and the other party was already very dissatisfied with him.

"Subordinates damn it!" Wei Tianhe knelt down on one knee.

Li Guanshu was silent for a while, and asked, "The matter has come to this, what should we do next, what do you think?"

Wei Tianhe gritted his teeth: "I also ask Guogong to ask Wei Gong for a few masters, and if you don't do anything, you will be surrounded and killed by King An, Lord Lijun and others, as well as the Taoists of Niushou Mountain Taoist Temple!"
