Duke's Mansion, Garden.
Li Zhao, wearing a green robe, sat at the stone table with a book on the art of war in his hand.
After a while, a veiled woman approached quickly.
She came behind Li Zhao, bent down and said respectfully: "Sir, it's settled."
"Your hands and feet are clean?" Li Zhao asked.
The masked woman said: "Don't worry, sir. There are countless people who covet Mei Sanniang's beauty. No matter how you investigate the love murder, you will never be able to find out the truth."
Hearing this, Li Zhaocai nodded with satisfaction.
Everyone says that the water in the capital is deep, but they don’t know where it is.
When planning and planning, keeping track of all the news is the most important thing.
Mei Sanniang of the Shuiyue Teahouse, on the surface, is a widow showing off her coquettishness to attract business, but in fact she is a small part of the intelligence network Li Zhao has organized in the capital.
Murong Wanfeng knew that her identity was relatively sensitive, but there were very few people who could match her appearance with the leader's wife.
However, in order to avoid causing trouble, she either covered her face or wore a hood along the way, hiding her appearance very well.
After entering Beijing, he met Yang Hongshan and was assigned to the Shuiyue Teahouse. It was like a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, and he was recognized by Mei Sanniang.
So, everything happened today.
Li Zhao was a sinister person, and after Mei Sanniang's chess piece played a big role, he sent people to silence him.
In addition, both Gong Xiang and the criminal officials sent to Jiangzhai have fatal clues in his hands.
Although these people are not Li Zhao's dead soldiers, when used, they are even worse.
"Being born as a girl will be a girl after all, and it won't accomplish anything big."
Li Zhao shook his head and sighed: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please don't be impatient. The good show will not start until King Dongding returns to Beijing to report on his duties, hahaha..."
At this moment, there was a sudden "whoosh" sound!
A sharp arrow shot into the hospital and was caught by the masked woman behind Li Zhao, with a small roll of paper tied to it.
Li Zhao was not frightened by the sharp arrows. After all, this was not an assassination, but a message transmission method ordered by him personally.
Unfolding the note, a line of small words appeared in front of my eyes.
"Gong Xiang was robbed, and the punishment department was in chaos."
Li Zhao raised his brows and couldn't help laughing anymore: "Hahahaha... You are young and energetic, you are young and energetic, hahaha, you kidnapped the Minister of Justice, let me see how you can turn around this time!"
Hearing the sound, the masked woman asked respectfully: "Do you want my subordinates to take action to solve this problem so as to avoid long nights and endless dreams?"
Jiang Wuji has now become a "fugitive", and he is also a "fugitive" for kidnapping officials. In this case, he unfortunately died while chasing the murderer... Isn't it normal?
However, Li Zhao shook his head and said: "No hurry, no rush..."
After a pause, Li Zhao looked up at the masked woman and asked, "Yu'er, do you feel... did things go too smoothly this time?"
The masked woman's name is Qin Yuyan, an orphan adopted by Li Zhao.
Due to his extraordinary talent and Li Zhao's careful cultivation, the bones in both arms have begun to "turn into jade." When all the bones in the body have turned into jade, he will be a true jade bone master.
Qin Yuyan did not answer in a hurry. Unlike those who flatter others, she really thought about it carefully.
Starting from the financing case, everything they did seemed to go smoothly.
But when success was just around the corner, Jiang Wuji suddenly appeared, and in the end he could only watch the "cooked duck fly away."
This time the plan for Jiang Wuji was actually not that smooth during the deduction.
The Empress, King Luo, and even the Queen Mother... these three untouchable nobles have not come forward to help Jiang Wuji until now.
If they had an arrangement, they should not let Jiang Wuji go to jail, let alone let Jiang Wuji kidnap Gong Xiangcheng as a fugitive.
As Li Zhao said, it was indeed so smooth. When you think about it carefully, it is so smooth that it makes people shudder...
"Sir, I think..."
The words are not finished yet.
"Whoosh!"
Another sharp arrow shot into the hospital.
When the letter was unfolded, Li Zhao's pupils shrank hard!
"There is not even one rumor spreader out of ten!"
Are there only one rumor spreader out of ten? The "rumor spreaders" in the letter refer to those who spread the news that Jiang Wuji is harboring rebels.
Although these people don't know Li Zhao, they don't even know the truth behind the rumors. They are just doing it for money.
But these people... can find out the previous family through thousands of connections, and then the previous family can check the previous family...
He may not be able to find Li Zhao, but the "intelligence network" he deployed in the capital is likely to be severely damaged by this! Very depressed!
"Bang!" Li Zhao punched the table, his face livid.
"Why is this happening? Could it be that he already knew that someone would deal with him?"
"Did you bring Murong Wanfeng back on purpose? On purpose...impossible, how is this possible?!"
Qin Yuyan glanced at the content of the letter and said solemnly: "I'm going to silence you."
"No, don't rush! Kill Jiang Wuji first, kill Jiang Wuji first!" Li Zhao gritted his teeth, wishing that Jiang Wuji's head would appear on the table immediately!
However, contrary to expectations, just when Qin Yuyan was about to go out to assassinate Jiang Wuji, a third arrow with a letter attached to it appeared.
"The Jiangzhai incident was defeated, and everyone in the Criminal Department was taken away by Fengtiansi."
Fengtiansi? Aren't the men from the Criminal Department sent to Jiang's house to stimulate the female relatives of Jiang Wuji's family? How could he be taken away by people from Fengtiansi?
Didn't the empress tell Fengtiansi to avoid suspicion regarding this matter? How come...
No, no, no, no...
Li Zhao's scalp felt tight. After so many years of secret planning, he was frightened for the first time.
I feel like the next moment, my door will be kicked open by the Empress!
Seeing this, Qin Yuyan comforted her: "Sir, there is no need to worry, so what if they find out about the house? I did these things without telling you, and they have nothing to do with you."
"Besides, even if these things are exposed, it's just that I can't see Jiang Wuji's success. What does it have to do with other things?"
Li Zhao suddenly realized after hearing this.
As expected, he is a fan of the authorities.
What would happen even if the empress knew about these things?
If Zhi Jiang Wuji is to die, it has nothing to do with whether he is loyal or not, right?
Moreover, the rebels did have an affair with Jiang Wuji. This is an indisputable fact!
In the end, it was nothing more than finding the rebels and being framed by Jiang Wuji.
With Li Zhao's foundation in the court, how big of a stir could this matter cause?
However, just as Li Zhao regained his breath, another letter arrow appeared.
"What did you write?" Li Zhao was no longer in the mood to read and motioned to Qin Yuyan to read it to him.
"The wife of the leader of the Red Lotus Sect...she, she..."
"talk!"
"She went to Fengtiansi to surrender."
"What?! Go and surrender to Fengtiansi?!"
Qin Yuyan's pupils shrank and she stared at the letter, word by word.
"She also confessed her accomplice..."
"who?"
"you."
"who???"
"She said you were an accomplice of the Red Lotus!"
"???"
Li Zhao swallowed hard.
"Traps...are all traps!"
There was a sound of footsteps outside the hospital.
Before the two of them could react, Wu Cong, the golden sword of Fengtian Division, broke in first.
Afterwards, dozens of knife-wielders rushed in and surrounded the two men.
"Wu Jindao, what do you mean by this?" Li Zhao asked pretending not to know anything.
"hehe……"
Wu Cong pulled out the sword from his waist without any explanation.
"Hold the sword to Heaven, and those who disobey will be killed without mercy!"
"Mr. Zhao Guo, would you like to follow me?"
"..."
