Changsun Wu was drowsily pulled out from the bed of Wen Xiang Jade, and was carried downstairs without even being allowed to put on his clothes, with a confused look on his face.
But when I saw Fang Jun and Ma Zhou, my heart skipped a beat and I woke up instantly...
"Everyone who has nothing to do with you, please get out!"
Fang Jun drank.
The old shopkeeper and the old madam of Yixiang Pavilion ran out of the lobby quickly as if they had received an amnesty. King Jiang Li Yun also wanted to go out, and Fang Jun warned: "Wei Chen, please send someone to take His Highness back to the mansion. Don't stay here."
At such a young age, His Highness was pursuing pleasure for the sake of Wen Xiang Jade, and did not even have a bodyguard with him. Even if this was King Xu's property and there was no safety issue, it was really ridiculous...
How could Li Yun dare to refute?
In his heart, he felt regretful that he could not have a beautiful night's sleep with the beauty in his arms, and said in his mouth: "Yes, yes, I will go back right now..."
Although the newly built mansion has not yet been completed, it is no problem to stay there for one night. At this time, he would not dare to return to the palace...
When everyone inside and outside the hall had left, Fang Jun stared at Changsun Wu and asked: "Today evening, a man wearing a bamboo hat drove to Yanping Gate. I am responsible for interrogating and questioning him. Do you know the identity of that man?"
Changsun Wu opened his mouth, swallowed, and replied: "He is from Shilipo in the south of the city. Because his family members were infected with malaria, he wanted to go to the city to seek medical treatment, but how dare you let such malaria-infected patients go free?"
Entering the city? Therefore, he was given a severe warning and expelled. As for where this man went later, the general has no idea. I dare to ask the Marquis, is there anything wrong with this man? "
His expression was slightly nervous, but if a person was woken up from his sleep by Qi Ye and interrogated, he would probably be a little nervous. Being too relaxed would make him more suspicious.
The answers were quite reasonable and reasonable, with nothing suspicious at all.
but……
Fang Jun stared into Changsun Wu's eyes and said calmly: "But according to my investigation, that person is not a villager from Shilipo at all. Why did you lie? Are you trying to cover up something?"
Changsun Wu's eyes were confused, he forced himself to calm down, and said suddenly: "Oh! After the Marquis said this, I finally remembered that that person was indeed not a villager from Shilipo, but just went to Chang'an to find relatives. Unexpectedly, the relatives had already moved with their families.
So I settled in Shilipo..."
Fang Jun chuckled, looked at Changsun Wu with a playful look, and said with a smile: "But later I went to the county government to check the household registration. This person is indeed a villager from Shilipo... You are lying. Since you are lying, you can't help but justify yourself, Changsun
Does the captain think so?"
Changsun Wu felt as if an invisible sledgehammer hit him hard on the head. His mind was stunned, his heart was beating wildly, his face was pale and he was sweating, he opened his mouth, and was speechless.
Mother!
This stick is a trick!
There is naturally no problem with that person's identity. He must have a household registration in Shilipo. Otherwise, why would he have been hiding for so many years without being noticed? How dare he live blatantly in Shilipo, a stone's throw away from Chang'an?
I am really stupid...
Changsun Wu looked desperate and defeated. He knew that he was finished. Not to mention that he was just a branch of the Changsun family. Even if Changsun Wuji personally came to plead for him, he would definitely die...
Taking a deep breath, Changsun Wu endured great fear and despair, shook his head, and said: "I will never understand what the Marquis said. This is the truth, and I will never lie."
Death is terrible, but if it involves the family, it is even more terrible!
Now that the matter has come to this point, only by shouldering the responsibility can we provide peace and security for our parents and children. Even if it is an adultery, the eldest son of the family, Sun Wuji, must be able to ask for a pardon in front of His Majesty, and only hold his eldest son Wu responsible.
Not as good as family...
Ma Zhou on the side looked at Fang Jun in surprise, and secretly thought that this boy really had a lot of tricks up his sleeve, and all his methods were useless. With just a few casual words, he deceived Changsun Wu into making many mistakes and omissions, which was difficult to hide. It was really amazing!
When Fang Jun faced off against his superior, Sun Wu, he was simply crushed by wisdom, and the latter had no power to resist...
Fang Junze looked a little solemn and stared at Changsun Wu.
Since Changsun Wu is such a bachelor, it can be seen that the identity of the man in the bamboo hat is by no means ordinary. If he is just an ordinary spy, how can Changsun Wu conceal it at all costs?
The most important thing is, is this Changsun Wu's personal behavior, or is it related to the Changsun family?
But it’s just that Changsun Wu was bribed, so it’s easy to say that maybe the enemy country wants to spy on Chang’an and get some information, but if the Changsun family is also involved...
That would be serious.
There was the sound of footsteps outside the door, and someone strode into the lobby.
The patrol officer guarding the door did not stop him, which showed that this person must have an extraordinary status. Fang Jun and Ma Zhou looked back and saw Li Junxian in military uniform walking in.
The two stood up to greet each other.
Li Junxian did not dare to trust anyone. One of them was the emperor's favorite, and the other was the emperor's son-in-law. His identities were completely unreliable. He quickly said: "The general has been ordered by your majesty to check whether Changsun Wu has been found and whether he has been found."
The whereabouts of the spy were discovered."
Changsun Wu became more and more desperate and went to Heaven to listen...
Fang Jun rolled his eyes and spoke before Ma Zhou: "Since His Majesty has sent the general to take over the case, I will hand over Changsun Wu to the general and I will take my leave."
After saying that, he turned around, winked at Ma Zhou, and strode out of the door.
Ma Zhou was also a very smart man. He understood instantly and said quickly: "Thank you, General."
Li Junxian was confused at first. His Majesty just sent us to inquire about the situation. When did we say we would take over the case?
By the time he reacted, Fang Jun had already walked to the door. Li Junxian immediately shouted: "Erlang, stay! Your Majesty's will is..."
"Okay, okay, this credit will be left to General Li. We will not fight for it. Don't worry, General Li!"
Fang Jun didn't even look back, he just waved his hand and walked out of the door.
Ma Zhou followed closely, taking three steps at a time and then two steps to catch up, and disappeared out of the door together...
Li Junxian's nose almost started to smoke with anger!
Mother!
Are we trying to take credit?
Each and every one of these special girls is wet with hair and is more seductive than a monkey. No one is willing to wade into this troubled water...
But if you all get out of the way, you can't push an honest person into a pit of fire!
Li Junxian was so depressed that he turned around and looked at Changsun Wu. He suddenly became furious and shouted: "Come here! Take this guy back to the government office, and he will be punished!"
"Here!"
Several elite Baiqi soldiers, who looked like wolves and tigers, rushed forward, tied up Chang Sun Wu tightly, and escorted him outside.
Changsun Wu's eyes were dull and he looked desperate.
The torture of "Hundred Qisi" can make the King of Hell tremble...
*****
In the Dragon Palace, long after Li Junxian left, His Majesty Li Er was still sitting on the brocade couch without moving.
He is forty-two years old this year, which is the age when a man is in the prime of life. He is just aspiring to build a great cause that will be passed down through the ages. However, his headaches and heart palpitations are becoming more and more severe. This makes His Majesty Li Er suffer a lot.
I often lament my limited energy.
Nuo's huge empire, ever-expanding territory, and increasingly abundant treasury, each of them consumed him countless thoughts, and he gradually felt that he was unable to do what he wanted.
But who told them that the Li family in Longxi had such symptoms of headache and heart palpitations?
Although the late emperor was imprisoned by him at the beginning, he never treated him harshly. In the end, he collapsed and died due to heart palpitations. However, there were rumors that he poisoned his father by pouring wine...
Now, this kind of illness has finally happened to him, and even Sun Simiao is at a loss what to do. He just suggested that he should eat lightly and be in a happy mood...
Although the illness caused His Majesty Li Er to suffer a lot, there was gradually a sense of impending storm in the city of Chang'an, which made him even more anxious...
Faintly, there seems to be an invisible undercurrent brewing.
Qiu Xinggong's actions disappointed him even more.
He could turn a blind eye to Qiu Xinggong's unauthorized deployment of soldiers and horses to lurk in Shilipo because Fang Jun had not been harmed in any way, but it did not mean that he had no worries about the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
Today Qiu Xinggong can dispatch soldiers to assassinate Fang Jun. Will someone else dispatch troops to remonstrate tomorrow?
Military power has always been the foundation for an emperor to sit in the world.
However, now, His Majesty Li Er feels that the military power he once controlled is gradually loosening. The Sixteen Guards are doing their own thing. On the surface, they respectfully swear allegiance to the emperor, but secretly they are paying more and more attention to their own interests.
This is the drawback of aristocratic families controlling the government and military power...
However, he relied on the Guanlong nobles to win the world. Now if he attacks the Guanlong nobles and seizes their military power, it will inevitably cause political turmoil. If pushed too hard, these aristocratic families who do not care about the imperial power will stage a coup.
