Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 411 Even the Incidental Hit (3)

"The next official sees Your Highness!"

The person Liu Yizhi doesn't want to see the most in the world is Li Xian, especially at the time when there is a big mess, but no matter how reluctant he is, he dare not lose his manners in front of Li Xian. As soon as he saw Li Xian leading the crowd over, he quickly walked over to greet him, and saluted very respectfully.

"Master Liu, you have explained clearly to Gu, what is going on, huh?"

Li Xian didn't show Liu Yizhi the slightest sympathy, and just yelled at him, no matter how respectful he was, it was in vain, because the real target Li Xian wanted to deter with this action was Liu Yizhi, as for Li Wen What a silly hat, it's just a matter of cuddling grass and beating rabbits, that's all.

"His Royal Highness, Vice Governor Qiu was assassinated and died, and the lower officials are investigating the scene."

Hearing that Li Xian's expression was wrong, Liu Yizhi's heart trembled involuntarily, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart, but in front of Li Xian, he didn't dare to express anything, just It could be that he suppressed the panic in his heart, and replied in a calm voice, acting neither arrogant nor humble, quite bearing the air of a famous official of a generation.

"Hmph, how did you become the governor? How would you explain to the father that such a huge case would happen under your rule, huh?"

Li Xian made up his mind to put pressure on Liu Yizhi, no matter what he said, he scolded Liu Yizhi unceremoniously, and almost pointed at Liu Yizhi's nose and scolded him for negligence.

"Your Majesty did have some negligence, and I dare not argue against it, so I will make an apology, Your Highness, please appease your anger."

At this moment, how could Liu Yizhi not know that Li Xian was going to use him to question him, and he was very wronged in his heart, but no matter how long he was in office, this case happened in his tenure. According to the rules of the church, this responsibility has to be borne by him. As far as this point is concerned, Li Xian has already stood on the height of morality. It's very clear that it's okay if you don't explain it. If you really get on top with Li Xian, it will be him who will be unlucky. In view of this, Liu Yizhi simply pleaded guilty to the crime of dereliction of duty, trying to dispel Li Xian's problem. play possibilities.

"Dereliction of duty? It's such a light sentence. An assassin from the imperial court can be dismissed with such an excuse? Mr. Liu is too naive. If there is no explanation for this matter, it is not only you who is a little The little governor, even the orphan has to follow suit, can this matter be passed by dereliction of duty, huh?"

Originally, there was no excuse for Li Xian to find trouble with Liu Yizhi, how could he be confused by Liu Yizhi's accusation of dereliction of duty? Liu Yi's face was so red.

"The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials should investigate the case thoroughly to reveal the truth."

Seeing Li Xian clung to him all the time, Liu Yizhi wailed in his heart, feeling extremely wronged, but he didn't dare to defend himself, so he could only respond in a low voice.

"The truth? The truth of the shit, this is what the Tubo people did. If it wasn't for the general's fate, I'm afraid he would die here, check? Check the shit, why don't you wait to order the whole city to search for the Tubo thieves?" ?" Before Li Xian could speak, Li Wen, who followed beside him, jumped out excitedly, gesticulating and yelling, no doubt, this guy was clearly afraid of being found out about his behavior of shrinking eggs.

"Young Lord, please forgive me for not agreeing with this statement. This matter is still under investigation, and there is no conclusion yet. How can you disturb the people all night? Everything must be evidenced!"

Liu Yizhi was afraid of Li Xian, but he didn't pay much attention to Li Wen, the second generation ancestor. To be honest, Liu Yizhi had had enough of Li Wen's bossing around, and at the same time, he also saw that other What's more, although they are allies, they are not one. Liu Yizhi will not let Li Wen order him at will, so he pushes back unceremoniously.

"Fart, I'm the witness. No one but the Tubo thieves can do this. I'm going to fight to the death. How can I admit the wrong person? Liu Yizhi, you dare to delay the timing of arrest. You really deserve it." die!"

Hearing Liu Yizhi's words, Li Wen immediately lost his temper, disregarding the fact that his official title was actually one level lower than Liu Yizhi's, so he hopped and cursed angrily.

"Little prince, please be careful, this matter is not trivial, and I cannot afford it!"

Liu Yizhi was not a person to provoke, how could he allow people like Li Wen to be so rampant in front of him, so he lowered his face and retorted incomparably coldly.

"You bastard, I..."

Regardless of Li Wen's illustrious background, he is actually a rough guy. When it comes to discernment, ten of them added up are definitely no match for Liu Yizhi. In a fit of rage, he rolled up his sleeves, intending to give Liu Yizhi a hard time.

"enough!"

Although Li Xian was very happy to see Li Wen and Liu Yizhi have a big fight, but as the governor of Hexi, he couldn't just sit back and watch the jokes in the officialdom. Besides, Li Wen is just a cover sent by Yue Wang Li Zhen, not the real person in charge of Hexi. Having separated the alliance between Empress Wu's family and King Yue's family, Li Xian didn't mind being a good guy, so he stopped drinking, which seemed to stop the tension between the two.

"The next official, Meng Lang, please come down!"

Liu Yizhi didn't bother to make a scene with Li Wen, but when he saw Li showing his head, he immediately took advantage of the slope to get off the donkey, took a small step back, and apologized respectfully.

"Huh, huh..."

Li Wen wanted to beat Liu Yi up, but he didn't have the courage to sing the opposite stage with Li Xian face to face. After being yelled at by Li Xian, he was left gasping for breath, but his red eyes were still fiercely staring at him. Hold on to Liu Yizhi.

"You and the others are all high-ranking officials of the imperial court. It seems so reckless to act so recklessly. Could it be that the court's laws are just a fake? Huh!" Li Xian glanced at the two of them, and put on the airs of a prince and governor, and said to each other unceremoniously. After hitting fifty big boards, without giving them a chance to speak out, they waved their hands and asked in a cold voice: "Master Liu, tell me, what have you found?"

"Returning to Your Highness, the officials have already found out several things. First, General Qiu and 120 of his personal guards were all killed, and none of them survived. In addition, the bodies of the soldiers in the little prince's mansion were not found at the scene. The reason is unknown... ..."

Liu Yizhi didn't want to quarrel with that scoundrel Li Wen, now when Li Xian asked, he was happy to change the topic, bowed his head hastily, and rushed to report.

"Fart, is it really unknown? Do you want me to die unexpectedly to be happy? Dog..."

Hearing what Liu Yizhi said, Li Wen immediately exploded again. He was not only afraid that his cowardly behavior would be exposed, but also that he would become a suspect in the case. He was furious and cursed.

"To shut up!"

No matter how good-tempered Li Xian is, he really couldn't stand Li Wen's noise. If it wasn't for something useful, he would have slapped him in the face earlier, so he interrupted Li Wen with a blunt shout. scolding.

"Brother King Ying, younger brother, younger brother..."

After being yelled at by Li Xian, Li Wen immediately trembled in fright. Seeing the strange faces of the people around him, he felt humiliated in his heart. He wanted to speak out to protest, but he didn't have the guts to confront Li Xian face to face. It was flushed red and purple, and she was moving her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Brother Wen has something to say later, let's just listen to what Master Liu has to say."

Li Xian looked down on Li Wen with 12 points, but when it was time to coax him, Li Xian didn't mind giving him a few good words, so his face softened, and he gently explained.

"Since the elder brother said so, the younger brother will obey."

With the steps to go down, Li Wen didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, so Nuonuo could only retreat to the side.

"Master Liu, please continue."

Li Xian ignored Li Wen, turned his head to look at Liu Yizhi, and asked with a slight frown.

"Your Majesty complied, so that Your Highness would know that the second thing I found during my investigation was that several damaged crossbows were found on the roofs of the street. In addition, according to the situation at the scene, it can be found that the ambush by the thieves was deliberately planned. What he did was to shoot intensively with powerful crossbows first, killing a large number of the accompanying personal guards of General Qiu. It is estimated that there are more than a hundred strong crossbowmen among the assassins participating in this battle, and another assassin who is good at using a giant meteor hammer to attack from a distance , destroyed General Qiu's carriage, and restricted General Qiu's evacuation; thirdly, the thieves fought fiercely, and they were all masters. The entire battle was over in less than a quarter of an hour, and no The corpse of the thief has not been found, and the weapons left behind have not been found; Fourth, according to investigations, many people in the little prince's house have witnessed the incident, and the subordinate officials have no authority to recruit witnesses. Please also order your Highness to call all witnesses to assist in the investigation of the case."

Liu Yizhi did have some real skills, although he never witnessed the whole assassination process, the situation he said was not that far from the reality, especially the fact that he mentioned Li Wen's mansion cryptically in his words. There is no fact that people have participated in the war at all.

eyewitness?Hehe, this is an interesting saying!Li Xian knew what Liu Yizhi meant as soon as he heard it, and he really admired Liu Yizhi's analysis ability. The harm is far greater than that of the incompetent, and Li Xian absolutely cannot afford to lose the Hexi matter, so he doesn't want to plant a time bomb around him that will explode at any time. For Li Xian, it is useless Or, there is only one end-death!

"Go, take a look!"

Li Xian didn't pay attention to Liu Yizhi's request, nor did he comment on what he said. He just waved his hand calmly and led the crowd towards the messy scene.
