The emperor's order was personally given by the emperor's guard, and he could beheaded first and then reported. The ministers respected him and feared him.
The Qingyi Hou Weili, who commanded the four divisions of the Huangjimen, was even more powerful. With a stroke of cinnabar, he burned his body and died. Many powerful officials and nobles fell into his hands. Fortunately, there are many high-ranking people in the capital, and they come and go in an endless stream.
Today, when Wu Yuan was celebrating his birthday, Hou Weili in Qingyi suddenly came to visit, which shocked the entire hall into silence. He is young and promising, about 20 years old, with a long figure and a green silk brocade robe. The dark gold and silver cloud patterns all over his body are gorgeous yet solemn, elegant yet possessing official authority.
That overly handsome face, with sharp edges and corners, was cold and isolated from the world.
Everyone hurriedly restrained their indulgent smiles and saluted him solemnly one by one.
Xu Zhihuai was hiding in the dark, looking at the majestic Huangji Guards and the Tang Hengdao they wore on their waists, and a chill came to his heart.
Shuntian Prefecture Yin Wu Yuan was well-known in the circle as a lecherous person. All the fengyuechangs, large and small, rushed to "offer sacrifices" to him, and the few beauties in the backyard were all bought by him for his pleasure. Wu Yuan originally chose the most delicate one for himself, but the sudden visit of the Marquis of Qingyi frightened him into confusion.
Wu Yuan was devoted to flattery, and with the help of his drunkenness, he wanted to send a beauty to Qing Yihou to "appraise the treasure".
Don't you know that Xu Zhihuai has other plans?
She used most of her savings to buy off the young man, letting herself become the "gift" of the Marquis of Qingyi.
Pulling back his thoughts, Xu Zhihuai smiled like a flower and blinked his watery eyes, full of innocence.
"I couldn't afford any generous gifts, so I wanted to win over the Marquis of Qingyi for my uncle, so I volunteered myself and became his woman."
"Who told you to act recklessly?"
Wu Yuan raised his voice and raised his hand to strike, but couldn't.
He didn't dare to hit Qingyi Hou's woman...
The maid Cuiliu clung to the window and eavesdropped, hiding her mouth in shock. She knew that something was wrong and hurriedly ran to reply to the madam.
Wu Yuan stared at the jade ring and became more and more nervous. He did not bother to scold Xu Zhihuai anymore and hurriedly took her to Bieyuan to plead guilty.
But after a while, the lingering atmosphere of love still lingered in the room.
Wei Li was neatly dressed and sitting in the semi-darkness. No one could see his face clearly. Beside him were two expressionless Huangji guards, with the Tang Hengdao shining brightly on his waist making people frightened.
Wu Yuan was covered in cold sweat, and he spoke cautiously: "Thanks to the Lord Qingyi for coming here, I have not treated you well, and there is a lot of neglect."
"I am very happy today."
Wei Li made puns, his voice was smooth and powerful, and there was no emotion at all.
Wu Yuan's heart trembled when he saw Xu Zhihuai swaying forward and saluting: "Daughter of the people Zhihuai, please give your regards to Lord Qingyi Hou."
Her voice was soft and soft, her posture was dignified, and she held up the jade ring with both hands: "The daughter of the people came here to apologize. I was in a hurry and accidentally took this ring by mistake."
Wei Li looked at her with eyes like a falcon, and suddenly patted his thigh to signal.
Xu Zhihuai stepped forward knowingly. Before he could stand still, he took her with one hand.
He lowered his eyes to look at her.
Compared with her previous glamorous exposure, the plain dress suits her temperament better, and her face with makeup removed is more pleasing to the eye.
Xu Zhihuai sat on Wei Li's lap and looked up at him.
His eyes were so sharp and his light was flowing.
The simple look at each other made people feel like they were falling into a cold pool.
There was a cool breath on his body, which enveloped her tightly and chilled every joint.
She was not raised in a romantic place. There was no skill in her virginity, and she had a reckless energy, as if she was risking her life to have fun with him.
He has seen many beautiful scenes, but this is the first time he has seen such a pious and focused person.
Wei Li's gaze fell on her hand, and the coldness in his eyes remained unabated: "You are deliberately planning to climb into my bed just for this purpose..."
Xu Zhihuai lowered his eyes.
She didn't dare to look into his eyes, only looking at the dark gold moiré collar, her eyelashes trembled timidly: "Actually, the daughter of the people has been admiring the Marquis for a long time..." After saying that, she took the jade ring back to him. thumb.
His fingers were long and slender, with distinct joints and a thick layer of calluses.
"Admire?"
What a fresh word.
Wei Li pondered these two words carefully and suddenly chuckled. His smile was full of authority and had great lethality.
Wu Yuan watched Wei Li hugging Xu Zhihuai and pressing him against his body. He breathed a sigh of relief but felt unwilling at the same time.
After raising it for three years, I have made others easier in vain.
Wei Li looked at Wu Yuan again.
"It's Master Wu who is celebrating his birthday, but I asked you to give me a good gift."
Wu Yuan folded his sleeves with his hands and smiled all over his face: "This... my humble niece is well-educated, quiet and well-behaved. She is indeed a good child."
Wei Li didn't respond after hearing this.
Wu Yuan was a little embarrassed: "It's rare that the Marquis doesn't dislike this child. Why don't we humble ourselves and be a favor, Zhang Luo..."
Wei Li interrupted him: "Since you gave it away, I will accept it."
"..."
Wu Yuan froze on the spot, at a loss.
Wei Li said in a cold tone: "It's time to talk about business." After saying that, he raised his hand slightly, and the two Huangji guards next to him immediately walked towards Wu Yuan and moved a chair to him rudely.
Wu Yuan's face changed slightly and he didn't dare to move even half a step.
Xu Zhihuai also felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere, and subconsciously wanted to get up. However, the hand on her waist was as heavy as a thousand pounds.
Xu Zhihuai raised his eyes and glanced at his face again.
So close!
If he got closer, the tip of her nose could touch his chin.
Breathing sounds are clearly audible.
She couldn't guess what he was going to do, she only smelled danger.
Wu Yuan sat down on the chair, as if he was being tortured, and it took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence from his throat: "What the Marquis is talking about is..."
Wei Li said calmly: "Investigating the case."
Most of the blood on Wu Yuan's body cooled instantly.
Okay, what case does Huang Jiwei have that will be brought to his head?
Wu Yuan took a deep breath.
"What case is your Excellency investigating? If you need help from me, please just say a word. Unfortunately, there are guests outside today, so it's not convenient to talk. Why don't you come to me in person tomorrow?"
He was still weighing it in his mind and didn't want to make the matter a big deal.
Unexpectedly, Wei Li would not give him this face at all: "You don't have to wait until tomorrow."
Wu Yuan took a breath.
It’s really easy to invite God but hard to send away!
Wei Li directly asked him for a letter.
Three months ago, Xu Zhigao, the magistrate of Huainan, wrote a letter to Wu Yuan, which was sent to the concierge at 3:00 on May 15th.
When Wu Yuan first heard the name "Xu Zhigao", he was a little overwhelmed. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized: "That Xu Zhigao who committed suicide out of fear of crime?"
When he spoke, his voice trembled at the end.
What he was afraid of was not the letter, but the fact that Huang Jiwei knew everything about his family affairs!
Wei Li said coldly: "Documents, transcripts, oral confessions and witnesses, it doesn't matter what you want. Who will convict him? As an official of the imperial court, how can Mr. Wu speak so freely?"
Wu Yuan was startled: "This... Huainan's military rations are lost. As the county magistrate, he cannot escape responsibility for his poor supervision! If something goes wrong in the local area, it is naturally the responsibility of the local magistrate."
Wei Li looked straight at him with sharp eyes.
"The whole world is not the royal land. Huainan is the imperial court's Huainan, the food is the imperial court's royal food, and the person who died was the imperial court's official! Things are not that simple."
Wu Yuan felt deeply unhappy when he heard this, and apologized hurriedly: "What the Marquis said is absolutely true, I am stupid. That letter... I forgot where I put it for a moment. Please allow me to delay for a while, and I will send the guests away. I will immediately go there." Go find it."
Wei Li said calmly: "It doesn't matter, there is nothing in this world that Huang Jiwei can't find, let them find it." After saying that, he raised his sleeves and signaled his entourage to make arrangements.
Wu Yuan's nervous expression was covered with another layer of panic.
Huang Jiwei's search of your home is like ransacking your home, you're in big trouble!
Thumping!
Thumping!
Xu Zhihuai felt his heartbeat speed up.
