Quan Furong is hidden in the small house. The light in the room is soft. She is sitting in front of the dressing table taking off her makeup. There is a small soft suitcase on the bed behind her. Inside is the top-notch jewelry she has accumulated over the years.
There were more than two hundred taels of gold, which she carried with her. Once there was any trouble, she would immediately flee with her small suitcase.
There are two large boxes next to it, filled with silver. This is of course her wealth. She plans to hide it here for a month. When the storm is over, she will calmly leave Chang'an with all her wealth and go to live in Shu.
Feel comfortable for the rest of your life.
Quan Furong is not a fool. She knows that if she works for An Lushan, she will be betrayed by An Lushan sooner or later, so after assassinating the Yang family this time, she will completely get rid of An Lushan.
At this moment, there was a loud bang from the door outside, which made Quan Furong jump up in shock. She was indeed a professional thief, and she would not wait and look at it. If anything unusual happened, she would immediately run away.
She grabbed the small suitcase on the bed, jumped up and opened the back window, rolled and landed in the backyard. At this time, her maid shouted: "Who are you and what do you want to do? Ah——"
The maid screamed and was controlled. Quan Furong climbed to the top of the city without hesitation. She only had a personal dagger, which was an heirloom she stole from the famous Gao family in Bohai ten years ago. It was made of meteorite iron.
It was extremely sharp and was the dagger carried by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. Later Yang Jian gave it to Prime Minister Gao Jiong and it became an heirloom of the Gao family.
She used this dagger to easily cut off Yang Xi's spine.
In addition to daggers, Quan Furong also has a unique skill. Her poisonous needle is placed in a small bamboo tube and blown out. It can hit hundreds of times within three feet. The poison is extremely overbearing, almost capable of sealing the throat with blood.
She only had five bamboo tubes in total, which were hidden around her waist, and each bamboo tube contained a poisonous needle.
Quan Furong climbed to the top of the city and looked back, only to see countless black shadows pouring into her house and running towards the backyard.
She cursed secretly and was about to run towards the outer city when she suddenly noticed a man standing a few feet away, holding a long weapon and looking at him coldly.
Quan Furong sensed the fierce murderous intention of the other party. She took out a bamboo pipe, jumped to the opposite side of the corridor, blew it in the air, and a poisonous needle flashed with silver light, and shot towards the other side's front door.
Li Ye's figure flashed, the poisonous needle shot into the air, and the flying knife in his hand shot out with lightning. Quan Furong crossed the aisle, and just as her feet landed, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her right heel. A flying knife actually shot through her heel tendon, and her leg
Soft, he fell to the ground.
She knew something was wrong, and just about to stand up despite the pain, she saw a flash of cold light, and the sharp knife pierced her left hamstring, causing Quan Furong to scream in pain.
"Bang!" Li Ye knocked her unconscious with a backhand punch. He found four bamboo tubes from her waist and pulled out her dagger. Li Ye glanced at the dagger in surprise. The dagger flashed with cold light and was extremely sharp. This was good.
Something, he immediately found the scabbard, inserted it, and put the dagger into his arms.
There was also a small suitcase. I didn't know what secrets were hidden in the suitcase. Li Ye didn't have time to take a closer look, so he stuffed the suitcase into a wall hole, making it completely invisible from the outside.
Li Ye then picked up the soft spring hibiscus, walked over the overpass next to it, and came to the city wall.
In the yard under the city wall, County Lieutenant Feng Min and several of his men opened a large net, and Li Ye threw Quan Furong into it. "Her legs are disabled and she can't walk even an inch!"
Quan Furong fell into the net, and several catchers tied her up and tied her hands and feet together.
Li Ye also jumped off the city wall, handed four bamboo tubes to Feng Min and said: "The poisonous needles in the bamboo tubes should be the same as those on Yang Xuangui. This is conclusive evidence."
"Thank you General Li for your help!"
Feng Min took the bamboo tube and felt extremely grateful. She quickly clasped her fists and said with a smile, "Everyone in the other library knows her, and she has all the witnesses and physical evidence."
Li Ye nodded, "That's good. Did you find any valuable evidence?"
Feng Min pulled Li Ye aside and whispered: "I just briefly interrogated her maid. The maid said she was Wu Gui's follower, named Luo Tian. She told them Yang Xuangui's whereabouts."
Li Ye couldn't help but sneered. It was really a vast network of heaven and earth. Last year, he had to hold back his anger and let go of Wu Gui, who was full of evildoers. But this time, he couldn't even think of escaping the disaster again.
"You take the person away first, and I'll catch this Luotian."
This Luo Tian is a key figure. If he is caught, Wu Gui will have no chance of escaping this disaster.
Feng Min took the person away. Quan Furong had already woken up. She was tied up like a rice dumpling, her mouth was gagged, and her head was covered with a black cloth. She struggled a few times and then resigned. From the beginning to the end, she refused.
Know whose hands you are falling into.
With the help of Zhang Ping's information, Li Ye, together with the chief catcher Han Wu and more than a dozen catchers, easily captured Luo Tian who was hiding in a relative's house. He was also afraid of being silenced by Wu Gui, so he hid in advance, but
In the end, he couldn't escape the pursuit of local snakes.
At the fifth watch, Emperor Li Longji was awakened from his sleep by Gao Lishi. He put on his robe and came to the outside, sat down and asked, "What's the urgent matter?"
Gao Lishi bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the female assassin who assassinated Yang Xi and Yang Xuangui has been caught."
Li Longji had been upset about this incident for the past two days. The news shocked him and he quickly asked: "Where was he caught?"
"Wannian County Lieutenant Feng led his catchers to catch her in a small house in Shengdaofang. This was the information provided by Wang Xuanhai."
"How does Wang Xuanhai know?"
"Your Majesty, this female assassin is called Quan Furong. She is a descendant of the Quan family in Goguryeo. She is actually thirty years old. She has a baby face and is called a child-faced witch. She is a robber. Three years ago, she
Luoyang kidnapped Wang Yuanbao's second son, Wang Shaoan, and Wang Yuanbao paid a ransom of 100,000 yuan, but Wang Shaoan died not long after he was released and was tortured to death by Quan Furong, so the Wang family has been looking for her for three years."
Li Longji nodded, "That's it. Who is her backstage? Who instigated her to assassinate the Yang family."
This is the issue that Li Longji is most concerned about.
At this time, the palace maid came up and offered a cup of ginseng tea. Gao Lishi waved his hand and asked the palace maids and eunuchs to leave. He lowered his voice and said: "Judging from the current clues, both An Lushan and Wu Xin are related to this case."
Li Longji was furious, "How dare this bastard An Lushan"
"Your Majesty, the trouble now is that there is no evidence that An Lushan is involved in the case, but Anqingzong is involved in the case. There is no evidence that Wu Xin is involved in the case, but his son Wu Gui is involved in the case."
Li Longji took a sip of ginseng tea, slowly calmed down, and asked again: "What is An Lushan's motive?"
"The old slave estimates that An Lushan actually wants to deal with Li Linfu and provoke an internal fight between the Yang family and Li Linfu."
Li Longji snorted, "An Lushan was recommended by Li Linfu. Is he so repaying kindness with enmity?"
"Your Majesty, what An Lushan is most afraid of is Li Linfu. Perhaps because of the Absi case, An Lushan did not get Tongluobu. He must have always had a grudge against Li Linfu!"
Li Longji walked a few steps with his hands behind his back and sighed: "Anlushan is the ballast stone of Liaodong and Youzhou, he can't move it!"
"This old slave is also worried. The Khitan is ready to take over Anlu Mountain at this time. I'm afraid there will be chaos in Liaodong, and Yingzhou and the Andong Protectorate will not be saved. Therefore, this old slave came to see your majesty overnight. He must take over the case before the Ministry of Punishment.
, Your Majesty, please finalize the regulations of the case first."
Li Longji thought for a long time and said slowly: "I thought this case was caused by external hostile forces. Since it is just an internal power struggle, don't make the matter a big deal. Go and warn An Qingzong and order him to resign. If they dare again
If I want to assassinate the minister, then I will definitely chop off the heads of their father and son, and I will do what I say!"
"Then this case"
"Let the Wu family take the blame!"
Li Longji said coldly: "Just say that Wu Xin was jealous of the favor of the Yang family and planned this case!"
"Old slave understands!"
"Besides, you should talk to Li Linfu tomorrow! The noble concubine is right. He has worked hard for me for decades, so I want to give him a good death so as not to chill the hearts of other ministers."
"I remember this, my Majesty, please rest."
Li Longji finally breathed a sigh of relief.
