Chapter 2179 Xi Les Private Underground Hall

Liu Yu said calmly: "Xile is my brother. Now we have formed the Beijing Eighth Party. We are the three giants. We have to discuss everything. This time the distribution of industry in the capital also involves his members, including those behind him.

The distribution of power in the court and the pursuit of Huan Xuan must be discussed with him. I think Xi Le is a smart man and knows what the overall situation is at this time and can make sense."

Xie Daoyun smiled slightly: "I'm afraid you don't know yet. Liu Yi is already distributing the underground industry in the capital. He must have never discussed this matter with you."

Liu Yu's expression changed: "How did Madam know this information?"

Xie Daoyun said calmly: "After all, my Xie family has lived in this city for thirty or forty years. Every move in the city cannot escape my eyes and ears. In the past, Miaoyin could control everything in the capital. Now that she is gone, I can only follow

The ancestral home of Shining came to take over these matters. Before I came to you today, Liu Yi had already gone to Dongshui Pass, the basement of Fuquan Inn, where his chief helm was in Jiankang City. Those who listened to him, and those who did not

Whether the various families he spoke of can get back the properties taken away by Huan Xuan depends entirely on their stance today."

Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "These are the items confiscated by the state from Huan Xuan's miscarriage. They cannot be given to each other privately like this!"

Xie Daoyun smiled slightly: "Xiaoyu, tonight is very important. In this city, and even in Dajin, which Liu will be named in the future may depend on the next few hours."

Liu Yu turned around and left. His figure disappeared into the black shadow of the night, and his words came from far away: "Thank you, madam. I'll come to pay my respects when everything calms down."

Xie Daoyun watched calmly as Liu Yu's figure disappeared under the foot of the mountain in the distance. A horse neighed and the sound of hoofbeats was heard, and he went straight to the city. A complicated look flashed across her face, and she turned around and disappeared into the city behind her.

In the wing room, the abandoned temple returned to calm, as if nothing had happened. Only the moonlight shined through the shadows of the swaying trees on the ground in the courtyard, indicating that today would be an uneventful night.

Dongshuiguan, Fuquan Inn, basement.

This is a hall with a radius of more than 20 feet, with more than ten pure copper beams and pillars supporting the surrounding area, and several large fire basins are burning blazingly. More than ten fat and fair-skinned young men from aristocratic families in casual clothes are entertaining Yu Yue.

At the head, Xi Sengshi, Wang Yu, Yang Sui and others were all seated on both sides, and Liu Yi, who was dressed in black and looked like a capable strongman, was sitting on the top with a bearded face.

In the bed, he was playing with a dagger in his hand. In the entire hall, more than thirty people in short clothes, with bare arms and chests, showing various developed muscles and covered with tattoos, were surrounded by strong men.

All around.

With a "plop", a sack was thrown heavily on the ground. Liu Fan and Zhao Yi clapped their hands and untied the sack. A young man in his twenties, covered in silk and satin, emerged from the sack.

He got out, tore off a piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth, and cursed loudly: "Asshole, you dare to tie me up, but you don't even ask, I, Xi..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xi Sengshi sitting second to the right with a gloomy face. He swallowed all his words and said in surprise: "Cousin, you, how could you...

"

Liu Yi said coldly: "Third brother, what's going on?"

Liu Fan said in a deep voice: "This man is Xi Daolin from the Xi family in the capital. He and Xi monk Shi Xi are cousins. He used to have two gambling houses, which were occupied by Huan Xuan. Yesterday, the army broke into the city. He

Instead of taking the servants to protect the families of the Beifu Army officers and soldiers, they took people to the two gambling houses privately, trying to take the money in the cash cabinets for themselves. Second brother, this has gone against what our rebels announced.

Military order, according to your instructions, my younger brother and A Yi patrolled the city with their subordinates in civilian clothes, and when they met Mr. Xi, they captured him."

Xi Daolin shouted unconvinced: "You don't wear military uniforms and don't reveal your identity. How can I know who you are? Those two gambling houses belong to my family and were robbed by Huan Xuan. I'll get my own money back."

What's the problem? Cousin, more than ten of my servants were beaten by them, and three others were seriously injured and do not know whether to live or die. You have to make the decision for me."

Xi Sengshi gritted his teeth, stood up, walked to Xi Daolin, and without saying a word, slapped him twice in the face, hard. This slap made Xi Daolin dizzy and made stars appear in his eyes.

, took two full steps back, then stopped, touched his swollen cheek, and said in surprise: "Cousin, what are you..."

Xi Sengshi cursed: "Asshole, don't you know the words on that official list? It said that all the property in the city should be sealed up and no one is allowed to touch it. You are claiming that you are taking advantage of the situation and will lose your head. Do you know that?

?!"

Xi Daolin's face turned pale with fright. This young man from an aristocratic family who was used to being arrogant didn't have any dignity at this moment. His legs softened and he knelt down directly on the ground: "Brother Xile, I was wrong, it was me who had the eyesight."

I don’t know Taishan. It’s me who violated the rebel army, no, it was the military order of the King. Please, please remember that this is my first offense. Please remember that because of my cousin’s loyalty to you, please spare me this time.

.I will never dare to do it again."

Liu Yi stopped playing with the dagger in his hand and looked at Xi Daolin: "Little Master Xi, you went to Caiyuanfang just to take advantage of the situation? When will the dignified Xi family of Gaoping fall in love with the money box of a gambling house?

How many tens of thousands of dollars is that? Has the Xi family fallen into this situation now?"

A trace of panic flashed across Xi Daolin's face, and he quickly waved his hand and said: "Brother Xile, you are aware of this. Over the past year or so, Huan Xuan has usurped the throne and robbed all the industries that our major families depend on for their livelihood.

All in all, these two gambling houses are my family's entire livelihood. If it weren't for my cousin's support, our whole family would be in trouble. So after the rebel army won, I originally wanted to go to the gambling house to capture those people.

The dog slaves from Jingzhou brought by Huan Xuan were all hypocritical spies and extremely bad. But I didn’t expect that when I went there, the cash box was already wide open. These dog slaves ran away with the money and came here.

Some of the righteous people probably regarded me as a thief who stole money. This, this is really unjust."

A cold and stern look flashed in Liu Yi's eyes, and his voice was emotionless: "So, when you go to Caiyuanfang, do you still want to protect the industry for the country and the rebels, instead of taking advantage of the situation?"

Xi Daolin nodded quickly and was about to speak when Xi Sengshi's face changed and he said sternly: "Daolin, tell the truth, otherwise my cousin won't be able to save you!"
