On the upper floor of Mingde Gate, Li Xuan looked at Jia Hui and Di Renjie who were walking away, looked sideways at the shadow of the parapet behind him, and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you think the Tibetan envoys are already going there?" Come here."
Under the shadow, Ming Chongyan, who was wearing a blue Taoist robe, walked out, walked to Li Xuan's side, stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and said softly: "Does the prince know that there is actually a strong thread eye in the Jia Mansion? The teams are distributed throughout Chang'an."
"This is reasonable." Li Xuan shook his head slightly and said: "Jia Hui can control Zhou Zhi through various means. His understanding of Zhou Zhi is evident. Naturally, he cannot do these things personally. There must be a force in the dark.”
Ming Chongyan turned slightly, looked at Li Xuan, and said softly: "Jia Hui is a civil servant and has never been on the battlefield. His men are so secretive that even the secret guards are not aware of it. What is the reason, the prince thinks?"
"Of course it's the Yu family's help." Li Xuan sighed. The black hands behind these things are naturally the Yu family's old Longxi aristocratic families.
These well-established aristocratic families have established the foundation of the Northern Dynasty since the Sixteenth Pillar Kingdom of the Northern Wei Dynasty. They have also gone through the troubled times of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Although they have declined somewhat, the manpower in the family cannot be underestimated.
Ming Chongyan turned his head again and looked at the sky in the distance, and said softly: "Just last night, someone impeached the King of Nanchang for secretly accusing himself of personal wealth, just like Jia Hui."
"It seems that this Longxi family is dragging me down in order to help Jia Hui." Li Xuan had a sneer on his face, and then he handed over his hands and said: "Master, all the people under me are within the regulations of the imperial court. . Some are in the name of my mother and concubine, and some are in the name of this king. All of them can be traced."
This is Chang'an, and all the people Li Xuan dares to put in Chang'an are completely traceable.
The reason for this is because he has a powerful power in the dark that no one knows about.
Li Xuan's expression remained calm, and she said calmly: "Sir, once my successor opens the palace in the future, these people will have to be transferred there. They are all officials within the imperial court. How can I say anything in secret?"
"The Queen of Heaven has already refuted it." When Ming Chongyan turned back to look at Zichen Palace, he bowed slightly.
Li Xuan followed and bowed. The one who had the deepest knowledge of the situation in each royal palace was the one in the palace.
It's just that Li Xuan has always been unnoticed, and there are not many people in the palace.
Moreover, even the palace's informants were secretly controlled by Princess Peng, and it would be too eye-catching to infiltrate her again.
Li Xuan raised his head and looked at Ming Chongyan and said, "Xuan also went back to investigate what the real person said that day, but unfortunately there was no result."
Ming Chongyan said softly: "Your Majesty is very strict in running the family."
One sentence set the tone for the previous temptation.
The further up Li Xuan went, the more people stared at him.
In addition to spying in secret, those people also used tricks to constantly infiltrate people into his subordinates.
But unfortunately, Li Xuan is very cautious when it comes to recruiting people in the mansion, even servants.
Even in Chang'an City, he rarely uses local people. He usually transfers people from Pengzhou and Hongzhou to Chang'an, and the people he transfers are cautious people. This kind of manpower is enough for him.
As for the locals in Chang'an, they will never easily recruit strangers into the palace. Even if there is a real need, they will first send them to Pengzhou and Hongzhou for inspection before using them.
The royal family has always liked to place its own personnel in various royal palaces. If you don't take precautions against such things, who knows when your home will be robbed.
Ming Chongyan seemed to be giving a secret warning that day, but in fact, he was just continuing to test the bottom line of the Nanchang Palace.
But unfortunately, even if Li Xuan didn't take action, Liu Jinyu and Princess Peng handled the matter very appropriately.
Ming Chongyan seemed to have good intentions, but he was just taking the opportunity to find out about Li Xuan.
It's a reminder, after all, there will only be more and more people exploring Li Xuan's background in the future.
…
"Master, are you really not going to take action this time?" Li Xuan looked at Ming Chongyan in disbelief. Ming Chongyan really didn't follow him out of the city to catch the thief. This was too sudden.
Ming Chongyan shook his head slightly and said: "The power of a poor Taoist can be exerted to its greatest extent near Chang'an. Once we leave Chang'an, we need to rely on the power of the army. I am afraid that for the current matter, I can only ask the prince to face the Tubo emissary and Jia Langzhong alone." ”
"It's nothing." Li Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "Xuan has already mobilized four teams of right-back cavalry. I believe they are enough to deal with all situations."
"This is the best." Ming Chongyan took a deep breath, then took out a tips bag from his arms and handed it to Li Xuan, and then said softly: "Your Majesty, this is the Queen's secret order. Your Majesty only needs to read it before taking action in the end. Just do it once and that’s it.”
The Empress of Heaven secretly ordered Ming Chongyan not to go there himself, but to use this seemingly obscure but trouble-prone method. What on earth was he thinking.
Li Xuan reached out to take the brocade bag, then cupped her hands and said, "Xuan accepts the order."
"The poor Taoist will be here to wait for the good news of the prince." Ming Chongyan took a step back and bowed seriously to Li Xuan.
"Then Xuan will go ahead." Li Xuan returned the salute, then quickly walked down the tower, turned to the west side, and met a group of business travelers. Then she went westward with the businessmen, then turned around and disappeared.
Ming Chongyan stood on top of the city, then raised his head directly with a solemn expression.
In the endless sky in the distance, a human face seemed to flash suddenly.
Yinji Sect, Yunhebi.
Ming Chongyan had a slight sneer on his lips: "It seems that there is really a connection between you and them."
Longxi aristocratic family, magic sect.
The Magic Gate has been able to recover quickly over the years, mostly thanks to the funding from losers in political struggles over the years.
The Demon Sect regards the losers of the political struggle as being taken advantage of, and the losers of the political struggle regard them as tools, tools with various ingenious uses.
Both get what they need, and each gets what they need.
Now, the incident has gradually implicated the Longxi family, and the scoundrels under those people will naturally jump out and make a fool of themselves.
Today, Li Xuan was nominally following Prince Li Xian to Mount Li. No one dared to spy there at will. The only one who had a chance was Ming Chongyan.
Someone has been watching him.
Because from a certain level, Ming Chongyan is easier to target than Li Xuan.
Looking at the figure in the sky, Ming Chongyan said softly: "The King of Nanchang is much more difficult to deal with than the poor Taoist."
…
In the square of the endless underground maze, a skinny figure sat on the ground.
Suddenly, a spiritual light fell into the figure's mind. Immediately, the figure's eyes lit up, but then closed them again.
In an instant, a phantom of a human figure suddenly appeared above the human figure.
Wearing a twelve-crown crown, an ocher-yellow robe, a long sword on his waist, and a jade seal in his hand, with a solemn expression, he looks like the solemn Emperor Tianyin.
A bit of spiritual light was immediately bounced out, and in a blink of an eye, it silently passed through the endless ground, and landed in the mind of a figure among the business travelers in the distance.
Li Xuan, who was reading a book, immediately couldn't help but look up.
"The leader of the Yinji Sect, Yun Hebi, is here?" Li Xuan felt a little unbelievable. Why did the Yinji Sect come to this matter?
In the war between Tang Dynasty and Tubo, Wanxiang Pavilion had always been involved, so why was Yinji Sect involved now?
Li Xuan's face suddenly darkened.
The Demon Sect's involvement in this matter was deeper than he imagined.
The Tianyin sect that raised troops in Muzhou, the Wusheng Tao of King Luo Bin, and the intervention of Wanxiang Pavilion in Tubo. Now there is the Yinji Sect, and half of the eight sects of the Demon Sect have participated.
The Momen's interests in the war between Tang Dynasty and Tibet were staggering.
Is it the Demon Sect or the Longxi Family?
"Go and ask, where are they now?" Li Xuan suddenly turned to look out the window, and the sound of horse hooves quickly disappeared.
Looking up, Li Xuan seemed to be able to see the statue of Yun Hebi, the leader of the Yinji Sect, in the endless sky, and under the sky, a group of pigeon hawks were flying towards the west.
Li Xuan had to say that she was very lucky.
If Dove Eagle hadn't found a group in Chang'an for several months and joined it, then Li Xuan would have needed to use some means to conceal his abilities. Otherwise, his method would have been discovered just now. .
Unfortunately, Yun Hebi hoped that Li Miao could help him distract Ming Chongyan, but he had no idea that Li Miao had already been replaced by the Taiyin Emperor.
This time, Li Miao's soul would not take action at all.
Li Xuan was not worried that people from the Demon Sect would suspect Li Miao. This place was near Chang'an and had attracted Ming Chongyan's attention.
Ming Chongyan, who was able to control Chang'an's protective array, was not comparable in strength. If he provoked him, it would be better to seek death.
People from the Demon Sect have cold natures, so there is no way they can help each other.
"Bang bang" the car door was knocked twice, and then a note was handed in: Jia Hui entered Wugong County to pay homage to fellow countryman Luo Binwang.
Sure enough, it is still Wugong County.
Li Xuan put down the note in her hand and rubbed it gently. The note turned into ashes in an instant, with only a wisp of ashes floating in the air.
This time Jia Hui traveled westward. In addition to Laisui, Lu Yuanfang, Di Renjie, and a group of servants, there was also a team of Qianniu Guards responsible for escorting him.
After all, their line of work is official business, and they are also considered imperial missions under the imperial edict.
In this case, Jia Hui can be said to be stared at all the time. Even in the mountains and fields, it is difficult for him to avoid people's eyes and communicate with others. Therefore, it is only convenient to communicate with Tubo in a crowded place. The secret envoy hooked up.
Among them, Wugong County is the only place that is more suitable for a break and can find a suitable excuse to stop.
King Luo Bin's whereabouts have become a mystery now, which is a good excuse.
"Instruct the Wugong County Magistrate to in the name of protecting the safety of the imperial envoys. From now on, the Wugong County Gate will step up inspection." After Li Xuan sent the order, a burst of footsteps quickly faded away.
Since Li Xuan guessed that Jia Hui would go to Wugong County, he had already sent people to find the Wugong County Magistrate.
Under the imperial edict, the Wugong County magistrate bowed his head and obeyed the order.
Li Xuan closed her eyes slightly.
Outside the carriage, the entire convoy was already heading towards the south gate of Wugong County.
However, the caravan will not enter Wugong County. They will only stop briefly outside the city to replenish drinking water and dry food, and then continue moving forward.
But Li Xuan will quietly stop.
Everything will be resolved in Wugong County, including grievances, including life and death.
…
Outside the north gate of Wugong County, watching the city gate patrol quietly tightening, a man in gray wearing a bamboo hat holding a Tang knife in his hand couldn't help but frowned.
As soon as he turned around, he had already avoided the city and headed towards the south gate of Wugong County.
