Li Ye said goodbye and left. Gao Lishi sat blankly for a moment. He took out a bell and shook it, and the bell made a crisp sound.
In an instant, a black warrior appeared in front of Gao Lishi, "Here I am!"
Gao Lishi said coldly: "Dongshi Wanbao Restaurant, the shopkeeper's surname is Xu, kill him, be more hidden, be more clean, don't kill the wrong person, go ahead!"
The man in black disappeared in a flash, and Gao Lishi entered the palace with Shang Fang's Emperor's Sword and Li Ye's report.
In a quiet room, Li Longji squinted his eyes after listening to Gao Lishi's report. He was also a little shocked. Li Ye found out that it was Prince Qing Li Yan so quickly. How many days had it passed?
Li Longji said angrily: "This idiot left so many loopholes?"
"Your Majesty, Prince Qing has actually done a good job. Didn't Fang Guan and the others all go to Luoyang? Without Li Ye, this case would not have been investigated at all."
"Hmph! Didn't Li Ye find out?"
"Your Majesty, if the shopkeeper of Wanbao Restaurant does not know Tang Gu, and if Tang Gu is not responsible for the investigation at Wanbao Restaurant, then Li Ye will not be able to investigate. Don't you think this is God's will?"
Li Longji nodded slowly, thinking about it, it was really God's will, it was such a coincidence.
"Has everything been taken care of afterwards?"
Gao Lishi nodded, "Old slave has already ordered people to deal with it. Li Ye killed Yang Shun, King Qing killed Tang Guan, and old slave killed the shopkeeper again. Even if Fang Guan and the others have three heads and six arms, they can't find out."
"The key is, does he understand what I mean? Why did I ask him to investigate the case?"
"Your Majesty, that child is extremely smart. I saw him grow up, and he understands! His father is from the prince's faction. That's just superficial. What I see is the essence. He gave your majesty three million, but didn't give the prince a penny.
No matter what, this is the key."
"But I haven't got it yet!"
Gao Lishi smiled slightly and said: "Come on, I have received the news. This ten thousand camel team has entered Longshan Pass. They are also traveling day and night and will arrive in Chang'an in ten days at most."
Li Longji took a few steps with his hands behind his back, "Ai Qing, do you think we should send him more troops?"
Gao Lishi nodded, "The old slave thinks that he should be given more troops both publicly and privately, but instead of transferring troops from Chang'an, he can directly transfer 6,000 troops from Beiting and Anxi to him. He is already responsible for their defense.
It is only natural that he should deploy troops."
"Okay! When his money arrives, I will have a talk with him. If the talk goes well, we will also make arrangements for his father's affairs."
"Your Majesty, are Fang Guan and the others going to be recalled?"
Li Longji was already a little impatient, "You can take care of the rest!"
After a pause, Li Longji said again: "Tomorrow I will go to Tai Chi Palace and ask Li Ye to enter the palace and tell stories to the imperial concubine to relieve her boredom and save her from making such a long face."
"Old slave obeys the order!"
After coming out of the Daming Palace, Li Ye breathed a long sigh of relief. He hadn't relaxed since he came back half a month ago, and he didn't relax until now.
When they arrived at the inn, Li Ye gathered his men and said, "Everyone has worked hard these days. Today is over. We have three days off. Each person will be rewarded with twenty guan of money."
There was a burst of cheers in the inn. At this time, Guan Pei stepped forward and said: "Commander, what should Liu Wutong do?"
Li Ye thought for a while and asked, "Does he have any ideas?"
"He wants to serve the Governor!"
Li Ye nodded, "Okay, it's not appropriate for him to drag his family to the river. It happens that my father needs a few guards around him. He should stay in Chang'an to protect my father!"
Liu Wutong was extremely skilled in martial arts, so he was the most suitable person to protect his father in Chang'an.
Li Ye immediately returned home and shouted when he entered the door: "Madam of the Minister, your son wants to talk to you about marriage. Madam, do you have time?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her ears hurt. Pei Sanniang grabbed her from behind. Pei Sanniang gritted her teeth and said, "You bastard, your skin is itchy. It's not big or small."
"Mom, no wonder dad's ears are one big and one small. People think father and son are inherited by blood!"
Pei Sanniang smiled, "Pfft!" and let go of his ears, "Come here! Mom will tell you about the wedding arrangements."
An Qingxu no longer lives in An Mansion at this time. This is also Yanzhuang's arrangement. Since An Qingzong is responsible for public affairs, he has to consider his reputation. It is not good for various warriors to come and go.
An Qingxu then moved to the second house in Changxingfang, which was also the house given to An Lushan by the emperor. It has been kept empty.
In the lobby, Dugu Wensu was reporting to An Qingxu about the acquisition of martial arts schools, "Reporting to the young master, there are a total of fifty-four martial arts schools in Chang'an, but most of them are relatively small, covering an area of about one or two acres. It is of great significance to us.
It's not big. Let's take a quick look and find that there are about seventeen martial arts schools that meet our requirements, all covering an area of more than three acres.
Fourteen of these seventeen properties are owned by the Wang family, and the other three are owned by the Mo family. I have contacted the Wang family, and they have agreed to sell a few to us, but their owner has gone to Bashu and will not come back for a month.
Let’s wait a month.”
"fart!"
An Qingxu was furious and slammed the table, "One hundred and twenty warriors will arrive in Chang'an the day after tomorrow. Where can they stay?"
Dugu Wensu hurriedly explained: "Master, isn't he planning on plotting against the Wang family? I am afraid that using force will frighten the snake in my humble position."
An Qingxu thought it was right, so he held back his anger and said, "What about Mr. Yi?"
"I have already investigated it. The Mo family has no background. We can first acquire the five martial arts schools of the Mo family."
"Have you talked to the Mo family?"
"We talked about it, but he refused."
"snort!"
An Qingxu snorted in dissatisfaction, "It seems like you don't know how to appreciate someone!"
"There is a point. If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with a drink."
"Who's behind his family?"
"It used to be the Wu family. After the Wu family fell, I don't know who it is anymore. I checked it but couldn't find it."
An Qingxu pondered for a moment and said: "Don't worry about so much for now. I want the martial arts school to settle down with my subordinates, kill them all, make the martial arts hall an ownerless thing, and then buy it from the county government."
"I humbly obey my orders!"
"Also, the Wang brothers must be in Chang'an and must find him. Last time you said that the man named Zhang Ping was their manager!"
"Exactly!"
"Keep an eye on him, arrest him and torture him. He must know where the Wang brothers are hiding!"
At night, outside a three-acre house in Yanshoufang, more than twenty black-clad warriors surrounded the house.
The leading warrior gave an order, and more than twenty warriors in black climbed over the wall one after another. Within a moment, there were cries and screams in the house.
It soon became quiet, deathly still.
Early the next morning, while Li Ye was having breakfast, Pei Sanniang hurriedly came over and said, "You go to the living room! Zhang Ping is here. It seems there is something urgent."
Li Ye stuffed the last piece of cake into his mouth, drank the soup in one gulp, and then walked to the atrium calmly.
In the living room, Zhang Ping was like an ant on a hot pot, spinning in circles.
There were footsteps coming from behind, Li Ye was coming, Zhang Ping hurriedly came forward and said: "Brother, something happened!"
"Don't be anxious, sit down and speak slowly!"
As long as Zhang Ping is safe and sound, there is nothing wrong with him.
Zhang Ping sat down and said anxiously: "Old Mo's family was wiped out last night. All nine members of the family, old and young, were killed."
"Who is Lao Mo?" Li Ye couldn't remember.
"Didn't I tell you? The real name of the man who runs the martial arts gym is Mo Zhenwei."
Li Ye remembered, weren't the black-clad warriors on Yishuilou Street the warriors from Mo's Martial Arts School?
"Do you suspect An Lushan's men did it?"
"It can only be them. Last time they wanted to buy my martial arts school, I told them that the owner was in Bashu and they had to wait for a month. Then they went to Mo Zhenwei again and heard that they were rejected. As a result, something happened last night.
"
"Then what?"
"Then if no one in the family inherits it, the government will announce it for a month. If no one comes to claim it after one month, the government will sell the martial arts gym. But I don't think I will wait a month, and Anjia will take it over today."
Li Ye took two steps with his hands behind his back and asked again: "I remember you told me that whenever you open a martial arts gym, there must be a backstage. Who is the backstage of the Mo Family Martial Arts Gym?"
"The backstage of the Mo family was the Wu family, and now it is the Hou Mo Chen family. The Hou Mo Chen family has 50% of the members in the martial arts school."
Li Ye laughed, now it was interesting.
He pondered for a while and said: "An Qingxu didn't take action against the Wang Family Martial Arts School, probably because he was afraid of arousing the enemy. If I'm not wrong, they will take action against you, so you'd better not show your face these days, and you can live in my house.
Inside the inn.”
Zhang Ping was waiting for this sentence. He, a commoner with a flat head, would not dare to fight with An Lushan. He immediately climbed up the pole and said, "I will go back to pack my things and move into the inn now!"
