There was a loud roar in the courtyard, and a figure flew out.
It was Lu Bu.
When Lu Bu ran out, he saw a few stones under the courtyard wall, but there was no sign of anyone.
He hurriedly returned to the courtyard and said to Du He: "Master, someone was lying on the wall just now and eavesdropping."
Du He's expression changed.
Snapped.
The folding fan in his hand was broken by him.
Du He asked nervously: "Do you know who is lying on the wall eavesdropping?"
Lu Bu shook his head: "When I went out, the man had disappeared."
"It's broken!" Du He said, "If it were those people, things would be difficult to handle. This matter was originally seamless. No one except me and Zhang Jian knew about those few things. Now I'm afraid they will be exposed.
It’s going to be bad!”
Immediately, Du He hurriedly ordered: "Send the order, Dream Group closes the door, and quickly conducts a thorough investigation to see who has left his residence just now. Those who act suspiciously should be arrested first, and the secret must not be leaked out."
.”
"yes!"
Lu Bu left the courtyard in a hurry and walked quickly outside.
Du He looked at the sky with a thoughtful expression.
…
"Huhuhu..."
Changsun Chong ran back to Chang'an City in one breath. When he came to the gateless gate of Sikong Mansion, he couldn't help but lean on the stone lion at the door and gasp for air. All the guards around him gathered around and asked Changsun Chong
Did something happen?
The old butler Wang Fu came over and was shocked and said: "Oh, Master, what's wrong with you? Why is your head swollen like this? It's really scary. Come on, I'll boil an egg for you and rub it!"
Changsun Chong pushed Wang Fu away and cursed: "Get out of here, I have important things to do."
He rushed to the mansion in a hurry, couldn't wait to see Changsun Wuji, and then pulled Changsun Wuji into the study.
"Dad, there is news. I found evidence. Tonight..."
Changsun Chong hurriedly recounted what he heard while lying on the wall.
Snapped.
Changsun Wuji punched the table and said angrily: "This is really unreasonable. I have long suspected that it was Du He who did it. Now it seems that it is probably Du He. However, judging from your description, it is not
I can’t guarantee that it will definitely be Du He, so let’s wait a little longer.”
"Dad, what are you waiting for? Du He must have found out that I eavesdropped and ran away. What if he moved the three gates." Changsun Chong suddenly became anxious.
Bang bang bang.
Suddenly someone knocked on the door.
Changsun Wuji said: "Come in!"
The study door opened, and Duan Yi'en, the leader of the Changsun family's black iron warriors, walked in.
Changsun Wuji asked: "How is the situation?"
Duan Yien bowed and said: "Master, just now the young master was lying on the wall of Du He's courtyard and overheard Du He's conversation. He accidentally made a noise and was discovered by Lu Bu. However, the young master was smart and was not caught by Lu Bu. Du He
After hearing the news, I panicked. Now the door of Dream Group has been closed and many experts have been sent to inspect it. It took a lot of effort for me to come out..."
As he spoke, he described Du He's reaction.
Changsun Wuji nodded: "Okay, so Du He must have stolen the three gates of Sikong Mansion. Humph, the matter was exposed and he panicked. You secretly sent the Black Iron Death Soldier to keep an eye on the Dream Group.
, we must not let Du He’s people move the gate of Sikong Mansion, Chong’er, early tomorrow morning, you and I will go into the palace and go to His Majesty to ask for an explanation!”
It turned out that Changsun Wuji was scheming and knew that his son was not necessarily Du He's opponent, so he sent Yi En, the top agent in the Sikong Mansion, to follow him secretly, firstly to protect Changsun Chong, and secondly to find out the news.
Facts have proved that what he did was right, and he finally found the evidence he wanted.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning.
Before dawn, Changsun Wuji picked up Changsun Chong from his sleep. After the two of them had washed and dressed, they took a carriage to the gate of the imperial city. As soon as the city gate opened, the two of them hurried into the imperial city and came to Tai Chi.
Outside the hall, people were called to report to Li Er quickly.
Li Eryi was shocked when he heard that Changsun Wuji had entered the palace in a hurry, and hurriedly told Changsun Wuji to wait in the imperial study.
Afterwards, Li Er hurried to the imperial study room and kept wondering, the morning court was about to begin. Why couldn't he tell the court if he had anything to do? It had to be mysterious.
How did he know that the gates of Sikong Mansion were being lost one after another, and Changsun Wuji had people guard the one-mile area around Sikong Mansion day and night, so no one except the upper and lower Sikong Mansion knew that the gates were lost.
The gate is the face of Sikong Mansion. If the gate is lost, and three gates are lost in succession, if anyone tells it, he will be laughed to death. Changsun Wuji does not have the courage to bring this matter up to the court in the morning, otherwise he will become the leader of the whole court.
What a great civil and military joke.
Before Li Er could say anything, Changsun Wuji stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I want to sue Du He."
Um?
Li Er was surprised again.
Li Er asked curiously: "Auxiliary machine, what are you going to tell Du He about?"
Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, I want to accuse Du He of stealing three gates of Sikong Mansion. The three gates are worth two hundred thousand guan. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, if the financial value of the theft exceeds 100 guan, he should be executed. Please make the decision for me!"
"
With that said, Changsun Wuji briefly told the whole story.
Changsun Chong added: "Your Majesty, I am lying on the wall of Du He's courtyard. I can hear and see clearly. Du He is sneaky and must not be a good person. The gate of Sikong Mansion must be in his hands."
, If Your Majesty doesn’t believe it, you can immediately send someone to announce that he has entered the palace, and I will confront him face to face!”
After hearing what Changsun Wuji and his son had said, Li Er couldn't help but believe it.
Only Du He can do this crucial thing.
Therefore, Li Er said: "Come here to announce that Du He has entered the palace. Today's morning court should be cancelled!"
Not long after, Du He arrived.
As soon as Du He entered the imperial study and saw Chang Sun Chong and Chang Sun Wuji, he understood everything.
He glanced at Changsun Chong and greeted with a smile: "My good disciple, you slept in the Banshan Academy until the sun was shining on your buttocks and didn't know how to get up. Did you get up early today to give me a surprise?"
Changsun was so angry that he wanted to hit someone: "Du He, don't be too arrogant, I'll show you later!"
Du He smiled slightly and stepped forward without hesitation to greet Li Er.
Li Er asked in a deep voice: "Du He, the three gates of Sikong Mansion disappeared one after another, was it you?"
Du He was stunned, "What gate?"
Changsun Chong added: "The gate of Sikong Mansion."
Du He: "What Sikong Mansion?"
Changsun Chong: "My home is Sikong Mansion."
Du He: "What gate?"
Changsun Chong: "...the door of my house!"
Du He frowned and said, "Which one is your house or the Sikong Mansion?"
"Sikong Mansion is my home!"
Changsun Chong almost collapsed.
Du He smiled slightly and asked, "What does that have to do with me?"
