This night was destined not to be peaceful. The streets in Chang'an City were all searched by guards in armor, causing the entire city of Chang'an to panic and complain.
However, the result was already doomed. A night's search yielded nothing. This was already expected. It's just that some people didn't give up and held on to a glimmer of hope.
That night, the Luo Mansion was also brightly lit. Luo Zhang sat in the middle courtyard all night, frowning while listening to the chickens and dogs jumping outside, thinking about the details and ins and outs of all this, and did not come back to his senses until the morning.
As soon as I got up, I patted my forehead. I was just thinking about things, and I actually forgot about grandma and the others.
I hurriedly ran to the underground secret room and took my grandma and aunt out.
When the grandma who had just come out saw the messy house, she was so angry that she chopped her crutches into pieces and shouted that she was going to go to the Chang'an County government office to file a complaint!
Finally, he was stopped by Luo Zhang.
Complain? If the complaint was useful, the Chang'an County government office would have already lined up.
Besides, it's very chaotic outside now, and you don't know what will happen if you go out. The fire last night is an example.
After comforting his grandma, Luo Zhang found Wu Shaobin and asked him to arrange for people to clean up the house as soon as possible and recruit people for training early. After what happened last night, Luo Zhang found that there were still too few guards in the house. , and the strength is not enough. If there is a team of people patrolling outside, will this kind of thing happen again? With his title of county prince, he can recruit fifty private soldiers!
Recruiting private soldiers requires a lot of money, and anything that can be solved with money is nothing.
But what Luo Zhang wants is not just private soldiers, but loyal private soldiers. No strength? Training means, at most, smashing oysters, beef ribs, and pufferfish down, and a group of Qi Sense Realm masters will be smashed out. He doesn't believe it. There are fifty Qi Sense Realm masters, plus two strong ones in the True Yuan Realm guarding the Luo family. There are still people who dare to come and act wild. Even a master of the True Yuan Realm cannot bear the siege of fifty Qi Sensing Realm people. What's more, there are still two True Yuan Realm masters. Even if the Luo family has three or four True Yuan Realm masters, they are still impregnable.
Luo Zhang was really angry at Changsun Wuji's warning!
After arranging things at home, Luo Zhang left Luo Mansion with Chen Kuifeng and went straight to the Secret Intelligence Department. He thought about it all night last night and already had some clues. He went to the Secret Intelligence Department to prove something to Li Junxian. matter.
When Luo Zhang came to the Secret Intelligence Department, the place had been cleaned. There were no broken limbs or broken arms that Chen Kuifeng mentioned, and there were not even any dead bodies.
However, through careful observation, it can be found that there are traces of cuts and gouges on the surrounding walls and doors, as well as bits and pieces of blood that have not been wiped clean in time.
These are enough to prove that last night's battle was extremely tragic!
When Luo Zhang came here, he no longer had to worry about safety. Chen Kuifeng did not follow Luo Zhang anymore, but hid in secret.
After getting off his horse, Luo Zhang was stopped by someone before he could step into the gate of the Secret Intelligence Department.
"The Secret Intelligence Department is an important place. No idlers are allowed to enter. Please come back!"
Looking at the two guards blocking him, Luo Zhang said seriously: "I'm looking for your Commander Li. I wonder if he is here. My name is Luo Zhang, the son of Lantian County. This is my token!"
As he spoke, Luo Zhang handed a token issued to him by the court to the guard at the door.
After taking the token, the guard looked at it twice, then looked at Luo Zhang, and then said: "Master Luo, wait a moment, I will report it!"
Without letting Luo Zhang wait for too long, the guard who had just left came back, handed the token to Luo Zhang, and said respectfully: "Master Luo, please come with me, Mr. Li is waiting for you inside!"
Luo Zhang hugged the guard and followed him straight in.
After going in circles for several times, Luo Zhang finally came to Li Junxian's house. The house was not luxurious, but it was just a little bigger than the house here.
When he walked into the house, he saw Li Junxian lying in a pile of letters, looking for something, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.
"Master Li, are you busy?" Luo Zhang greeted.
Li Junxian raised his head and rolled his eyes at Luo Zhang, and said angrily: "Stop calling me Mr. Li, I'm just as good as calling you Mr. Li now!"
"Huh? What does Mr. Li mean by this?" Luo Zhang was a little confused listening to Li Junxian's words.
"The Secret Service Prison was robbed and the prisoners were killed. I was demoted three levels by Your Majesty and deprived of the title of county boy. Do you think I should call you Sir?" Li Junxian threw away the letter in his hand and sighed. He said with a breath.
Luo Zhang sat down next to him and said, "Master Li, tell me what's going on!"
"Where's your wine? Give me a gourd. I haven't slept all night and I have a terrible headache!" Li Junxian sighed.
Luo Zhang couldn't laugh or cry. He didn't expect that Li Junxian would ask him for a drink as soon as he saw him. However, the Erguotou he had had long gone, and there was only Maotai. Fortunately, Luo Zhang would always bring a gourd of wine with him when he went out, and he just gave it to Li Jun. envy.
Li Junxian was not polite to Luo Zhang. He directly pulled off the lid of the gourd and took a big gulp. His eyes suddenly lit up. He glanced at the gourd, smelled the wine in the gourd, looked at Luo Zhang and said: "This seems to be different from the wine you gave me before. It tastes better, more fragrant, good wine, good wine! So happy!"
Luo Zhang stopped urging Li Junxian, knowing that Li Junxian was depressed now. The prison was robbed, the prisoners were killed, and the official was demoted. Anyone else would be depressed. A bottle of wine could just relieve his worries. .
After Li Junxian took another sip, he stopped and sighed: "I was lured away from the mountain! I went to your place last night, and there were three strong men of the True Yuan Realm with a lot of Qi Sense Realm. Experts came to my secret spy department to rob the prison, and killed many of my men, and also killed the old man of the Goguryeo True Yuan Realm who assassinated you."
Luo Zhang nodded. He came here just to ask Li Junxian about this matter. When he heard Li Junxian's words, Luo Zhang understood a lot of things in an instant.
"This old dog is so good at calculating and acting so well. He deceived all of us!" Luo Zhang said with cold eyes.
The old dog he was talking about was of course Changsun Wuji, but he didn't specify it. Li Junxian could certainly understand it, but understanding was one thing, and knowing it was another.
"How can you tell that those people last night are the old dog's people? Although we all know that they are his people, but what if they are people from the Gaoguli sect, pretending to be members of the Changsun family?" Li Junxian asked, it was not him I didn't expect this, but there is no evidence. This is the most difficult thing. It is impossible to arrest someone by guessing. That is Changsun Wuji. You caught him by guessing? What's the difference between that and courting death?
"Hey, Mr. Li, are the people of Gaoguli so smart? And how did they know that you would send everyone from the Secret Service to my house? Only Changsun Wuji, who spread the false news that he was going to deal with me, knew all this, and only he could He controlled the time so accurately and sent people here after you left. As for who instigated the assassination of me by the Gaoguli people and who they threatened, I don’t need to tell you!" Luo Zhang said bitterly.
"What you said makes sense, but there is still no evidence. That old dog did everything right and didn't catch anything at all!" Li Junxian said depressedly, taking another sip of wine.
"I was thinking about this all night last night. Do you want to hear my solution?" Luo Zhang said with a slight smile.
"What can you do? Your Majesty asked me to serve my crime and serve. If I don't catch anyone, I will go home and farm. If you have any idea, please tell me immediately." Li Junxian's eyes lit up.
"You will definitely not find evidence if you look for it directly. This is what I think. Tomorrow I will pretend to go out of the city to my fiefdom and go alone. If Changsun Wuji learns that I am alone, what do you think he will do?"
"Send someone to hunt you down!"
"Yes, they will definitely send someone to chase me, and they will send a master of the True Yuan Realm to chase me. After all, the Eighth Elder was deposed by me, and it is impossible for him to send a master of the Qi Sense Realm without knowing my strength. It must be the True Yuan realm.”
"There are not many True Yuan Realm masters. Each family only has a few. According to what you said, there were three True Yuan Realm masters who came to rob the prison last night. I wonder if these are all the True Yuan Realm masters of the Changsun family. , if this is the case, we might have a chance, do you understand what I mean?" Luo Zhang explained.
Hearing Luo Zhang's words, Li Junxian understood what Luo Zhang meant in a flash. He slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, good strategy, but will this be too dangerous for you?"
"I have two True Yuan realms here. If you can find two more True Yuan realms there, including you, there will be a total of five True Yuan realms. Isn't it possible to capture one?"
"Of course there is no problem. Three people are enough, let alone five. But for insurance, if Changsun Wuji sends two people, five people are enough to handle it." Li Junxian replied.
"But Mr. Li, you still have to be mentally prepared for this matter. After all, you are betting on luck. If you are lucky, you can meet the person who robbed the prison last night. If you are not lucky, then it will be a useless effort!" Luo Zhang said. Vaccination.
"Hahaha, don't be afraid, don't be afraid. As long as we can catch Lao Gou, a master of the True Yuan Realm, then we won't have gained anything. When I think about it, Lao Gou will jump in anger. That's enough, that's enough!"
