Chapter 96
This is not the first time Li Zhang has come to Yangzhou.

The Jiangnan region has beautiful mountains, clear waters and beautiful people, and even the wind reveals a sense of spring that is completely different from Bianjing, so every time Li Zhang comes to Yangzhou, he feels very happy.

Those who cling to him will always find ways to please him.

It was like this when he was only the seventh prince, and now he is King Zhan.

However, this time he came to Yangzhou with the King of Shou, but he was under the control of the King of Shou everywhere. He couldn't spend money extravagantly, and couldn't touch beauties.

Fortunately, King Shou had to go north.

Now he is left alone in Yangzhou. Xue Yu, who is also an angel, has no actual official position, and his status is not as noble as him. No one can hold him back.

The sweaty guard knelt on one knee in front of the hall, reporting the affairs of the Du family word by word, while the steward of King Zhan's mansion, who was in charge at this time, stood hunched over on the right side of Li Zhang, explaining in a low voice that all the Du family members had been taken into custody. to the yard.

"You mean, it's not the fourth brother who took the Du family away? Where's Xue Yu? That guy is still in Yangzhou, and it's his who doesn't keep it clean." Li Zhang sat sideways on the chair, rubbing the space between his brows.

He looked sleepy, his clothes were half unbuttoned, revealing the white silk underwear underneath, apparently woken up in a hurry.

The maid came in with warm water, knelt down at Li Zhang's feet, and wiped his hands and feet gently and carefully.After they finished their busy work, another wave of maidservants came in with food boxes and mouthwash cups.

The steward winked at the guard.

"Returning to the prince, he doesn't look like someone from the imperial court. His clothes are chaotic, and he seems to be a commoner." The guard quickly replied.

Li Zhang snorted, tilted his head and spat out the salt water in displeasure, and said, "Since you are a commoner, why can you bring him into the government office? Ren Bingyi, who knows the state, is getting more and more out of shape."

Then, without waiting for the steward to speak, he asked again: "Who is in charge of criminal and prison affairs on Huainan Road? I heard that Xue Yu has been staying behind closed doors recently. Acting in Yangzhou? You need to find out, and don’t always bring vague information to my eyes.”

thump.

The steward quickly knelt down on the ground, kowtowed, and replied: "My lord, it's An Yi who asked me about some criminal and prison affairs on Huainan Road. I have written to him a few days ago, asking him to come here. As for Xue Yu I don’t dare to fool the lord... It’s just that the government office in Yangzhou seems to have been cleaned up, and now it’s very difficult to insert people into it, and it’s also difficult to get inside information.”

"Hey." Li Zhang lowered his eyelids and said without revealing his anger: "You have spent more than half a month to find out the real reason why King Shou went south. According to this king, it is not just the government of Yangzhou. It’s a solid wall. This king will stay in Yangzhou for more than a month at most, if you really can’t find out, just tell me honestly, I’ll replace someone to check.”

Clang.

Frightened by Li Zhang's aura, the maid turned over the copper basin in her hand.

When Li Zhang said this, Shen Qingling and Xue Yu had avoided the guards and squatted on top of Li Zhang's head.Hearing that Li Zhang wanted to find out the real purpose of Li Yu's going south, the two were slightly relieved, knowing that the Du family's affairs had not been exposed yet.

"Go back to your lord." The steward rolled his eyes and said with a stern face, "You don't know, but the daughter of the Du family must have something hidden in her hand, just wait for us to release her this time." Come out and coax her to sue the imperial court, she will naturally take that thing out."

At that time, will they still know why the Du family was taken away?

Hearing this, Li Zhang narrowed his eyes, put his foot on the steward's shoulder, and said with disdain: "After three days, she is still at home, and I don't think she has anything special in her hands."

The roof tiles were opened slightly.

Shen Qingling saw that the steward handed Li Zhang a piece of paper, with Shen Qingling's vision, he could only vaguely see a lot of words written on the paper, it should be something like a letter.

"How many more like this?" Li Zhang was overjoyed, and quickly sat upright, pulling the paper from the steward's hand, "Okay, my sister always likes to be superior, but I didn't expect her to have such a habit."

The manager rubbed his hands wretchedly, and said with a chuckle, "This is just a copy of rubbings that the humble official stole from the daughter of the Du family. The handwriting is uncountable, but don't worry, my lord, she must have more in her hand."

What is it?
Xue Yu made a gesture of mouth.

He couldn't see anything in that direction except Li Zhang and the manager's big head.

It should be a letter written by Li Youyu to Du Chengye.

Shen Qingling said while gesticulating: The Du family still has the rubbings, if Li Zhang gets it, the consequences will be disastrous.

It is true that Li Zhang did not trip up Li Yu when he knew that Li Youyu was treasonous, but now Shen Qingling did not dare to place any hope on him. solved.

Benefit the country and the people.

"Okay, I'll give you a few more days." Li Zhang nodded tolerantly, and leaned into the arms of the maidservant, "As for the identity of those commoners, let's find out as soon as possible, I don't want one more person to disrupt the situation. .”

Before long, the guards dispersed.

Li Zhang at the bottom wasn't too fussy. After leaning in the beauty's arms and reading a book for a while, he fell asleep.The maidservants did not dare to move after he fell asleep, sitting upright like a log.

The guards in the yard also fell silent, obviously afraid of disturbing Li Zhang to sleep.

A wisp of blue smoke slowly fell to the ground.

The fragrance permeated the air.

Just when the maid fell down on the beauty's couch with a thud, Shen Qingling and Xue Yu quietly sneaked into the house, and locked the door in time to prevent the guards outside from hearing the noise and breaking in.

"What kind of incense is this?" Xue Yu watched curiously as Shen Qingling put the green bamboo tube that was about the length of his forearm behind his waist, according to his previous experience, there was no Mixiang that took effect so quickly.

The faces of the two were covered with a cloth with antidote, so they could move freely in the room full of drugs.

"It's not the fragrance, it's the fragrance. After grinding the meat of the phantom razor clam into powder, add wormwood root to it..." Shen Qingling stopped talking, blinked playfully, and changed her words: "Ayu asked so What more? I can't tell you all my secret recipes."

Xue Yu pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes pampered.

Binding Li Zhang can be said to be a very risky move. Once the guards outside find out, Xue Yu may be accused of murdering the royal family, and a small commoner like Shen Qingling will definitely be pulled out and chopped.

It's just that the arrow is on the string and has to be fired.

They already knew that Li Zhang was plotting something bad, so of course they could only kidnap Li Zhang in a hurry.

Fortunately, the guards outside were all afraid of Li Zhang, knowing that Li Zhang didn't like other people making noises when he was sleeping, so no one approached him at all, and they were all stationed outside the courtyard.
