Chapter 338

Cao Dao tilted his head, thought for a long time, and finally shook his head.

He didn't know anything about the organization behind the white-clothed scholar, he only knew that there were so many experts in that organization.

Yang Jiu felt that Cao Dao's statement was inherently problematic. Since he knew nothing, how could he know that there are so many experts?

The white-clothed scholar's martial arts are very high, but he is already the great elder of that organization.

Even if there are masters like protectors at the top, it feels like that.

Besides, Dharma protectors are not necessarily better than elders.

"Master Jiu wants to deal with that organization?" Cao Dao asked cautiously.

Yang Jiu said with a smile: "Any existence that poses a threat to the empire must be killed in the bud."

Cao Dao knew this and he would definitely be able to help.

The Xing Tian Knife is very important to that organization. After the white-clothed scholar can't take back the Xing Tian Knife, the organization will definitely send more experts to snatch it.

As long as all the people sent by the organization are killed, the organization will be forced to send out high-level officials.

It's just that Cao Dao didn't know that Yang Jiu's plan was to find the organization's so-called base as long as he killed the white-clothed scholar.

Organizations, bases, these words are not words that people of this era would use.

Yang Jiu had a guess in mind.

If the speculation is true, the consequences could be dire.

The closer to the New Year's Eve, the busier the six doors and other yamen.

They must be more diligent in order to maintain the order in Chang'an City and let the people live a peaceful year.

Those who oppose the imperial court will always make all kinds of messy things during the Chinese New Year.

After nightfall, Yang Jiu stayed at No. [-] corpse shop.

When the Chinese New Year is approaching, the court basically seldom kills criminals.

After waiting for a long time, no corpse was seen, so Yang Jiu got up and went to Yan Luo Hall.

Those corpses with blank lives are easy to sew. In just this night, Yang Jiu sewed fifteen corpses.

It broke the record.

Looking at the fifteen blank paper rewards he got, Yang Jiu somehow felt very at ease.

In a twinkling of an eye, it was the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, and Wu Sanyue held a banquet in the imperial garden for officials and envoys from various countries.

Yang Jiu sat in the back seat, and in front of him was Wei Zhongxian.

At every imperial banquet, Wei Zhongxian didn't want to sit in a conspicuous place.

Di Juyi was not there, and the atmosphere at the scene was a bit weird.

Rather than entertaining officials and envoys, Wu Sanyue wanted to go to Yangzhai and spend a good New Year with Yang Jiu and others.

But as the king of a country, he should put the country's affairs first.

The imperial banquet is just like that, eat and drink, watch dances, and the time will pass.

After the end, Yang Jiu took Wu Sanyue, who had been disguised, and went straight to Yangzhai.

Inside the Yangzhai, it was also very lively.

Once you have a baby in the house, the excitement can multiply.

Once the child goes out and is not at home, the previously lively home will become empty in an instant.

After Wu Sanyue came back, she has been playing with Yang Wu.

At any rate, she also had a good impression of Li Xingjiang, and after getting acquainted with him for a while, she was able to take care of Yang Wu skillfully.

Everyone gathers together to observe the New Year and celebrate the New Year, and there is harmony.

Although there were undercurrents surging in Chang'an City on this day, fortunately, no particularly serious and strange things happened.

……

Tea house.

Li Xinghe sat alone in the elegant room, watching the bright lights outside the window.

I don't know since when, he likes to watch the new year alone.

Every year on New Year's Eve, he is very energetic and doesn't feel sleepy at all. Just drinking tea like this and looking at the scenery outside the window, the night will pass quickly.

Li Furong's sudden appearance was really beyond his expectation.

"Brother, are you still alone?" Li Furong was not polite at all. After sitting down, she poured a bowl of tea to moisten her throat.

The night in Chang'an is getting colder and colder.

Li Xinghe smiled and asked, "Who are you going to kill this time?"

The last time Li Furong came to Chang'an City, under careful planning, he successfully got rid of Di Juyi.

This time when Li Furong came to Chang'an again, she reckoned that she was going to kill someone again.

Li Xinghe is very disgusted with Li Furong now.

After Li Furong left the palace and left Chang'an, the hard experience would definitely change her, but it wouldn't turn into the ghost she is now.

Sometimes Li Xinghe really wanted to kill Li Furong, but after all, Li Furong was his only relative in this world, and his heart was not hard enough to kill her.

"Brother, in your heart, am I a bloodthirsty person?" Li Furong was speechless.

Li Xinghe said coldly: "Isn't it?"

Li Furong didn't want to make excuses either, after all, she was indeed such a person before.

If you want to help the great cause of Shinto, you have to kill people, and anyone who hinders the great cause of Shinto must be eradicated.

But now she is helping Yang Jiu, killing people will only kill Feng Yundao people.

As long as Fengyun Dao can be completely eliminated, the world will be much more peaceful, and many people will die less.

"Brother, I know you won't be able to sleep tonight, so I came here to tell you that tomorrow you can see old Di Ge." Li Furong smiled and drank the tea in the bowl after speaking.

Li Xinghe was stunned: "What did you say?"

"The situation at that time was like that, Old Man Di Ge had to die, so we thought of a way, that is, find someone to disguise himself as Old Man Di Ge, let Feng Yundao kill the impostor, and then hide the real Old Man Di Ge, You will be able to hide it from the world." Li Furong looked proud.

Li Xinghe still didn't quite believe it.

Besides, even if what Li Furong said is true, what can be changed?
Li Furong is a disciple of Fengyun Dao, how many evil things have been done for Fengyun Dao these years, how should this account be settled?
Li Furong ran over now and explained to him the plan to assassinate Di Juyi, even if it was true, so what?

"Brother, in fact, the most important purpose of my coming to you this time is to apologize to you." Li Furong stood up as she spoke.

She could tell that Li Xinghe was very impatient with her, and continued to chat about family affairs here. She was the only one who was happy, and brought Li Xinghe all pain.

"Apologize? Why are you humble?" Li Xinghe smiled.

Li Furong said: "In the past, I forced you to help you take back the Li family, but now I see it away. Since ancient times, the survival of the country has been determined. Our Li family is exhausted. Now, mother It is enough to take good care of the world, the happiness of the people is the most important thing.”

Li Xinghe was speechless.

He just felt that the Li Furong standing in front of him at this moment was not the Li Furong he was familiar with.

Li Furong was completely brainwashed by Feng Yundao, all she wanted was to help Feng Yundao achieve the so-called great cause, it is impossible to be so sensible.

"Brother, take care." Li Furong cupped her fists and turned to leave.

Li Xinghe got up and went to the window, and soon saw Li Furong appearing on the long street, slowly disappearing into the crowd.

"King Qin, how are you thinking?" A door suddenly opened on one side of the wall, and a masked man in black came out from inside.

Li Xinghe said: "How can I trust someone who doesn't even dare to show his true face?"

"King Qin doesn't need to believe it. In fact, we can go to someone else. After all, His Highness King Qin seems to have only this title, right?" The man's voice was full of sarcasm.

Although Li Xinghe controlled the shadow guards, the number of shadow guards was very small after all, so it was difficult to cause too much trouble.

What they want to borrow is Li Xinghe's identity. If Li Xinghe is unwilling, then they can find another person and make this person exactly like Li Xinghe.

Since ancient times, when the emperor went on tour, he would have a lot of romantic affairs among the people and leave behind a few illegitimate children, which is nothing more than normal.

As long as there are enough people telling the story, the common people will believe it.

"Okay, I'll do it, what do I need?" Li Xinghe gritted his teeth.

It's not an option to do nothing all day like now, man, you must accomplish a big event in this life.

The man in black chuckled, and said, "It's fine if King Qin agrees, and I'll report to the superior right away, and then we'll follow the instructions from the superior."

Li Xinghe wanted to ask again, but the man in black had already left quickly.

Li Xinghe looked out the window again, the people of Chang'an were very happy tonight.

He didn't know whether his decision was right or wrong, he only knew that he must do something big in his life.

No matter how good the gentle township is, it is not the destination of a good man.

……

New Year's Day.

Early in the morning, Yang Jiu sent Wu Sanyue back to the palace.

She didn't have to go to court for the past few days, and after returning home, Wu Sanyue had nothing to do, so she felt that she should strengthen herself and conceive a child no matter what.

Near noon, Di Juyi came outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

As soon as the appointed time arrived, Di Juyi couldn't wait to leave the mansion and came to the palace to greet Wu Sanyue.

Seeing that Yang Jiu was there, Di Juyi smiled gratefully.

If it wasn't for Yang Jiu's stealth, he should be buried in the soil and rot slowly.

Wu Sanyue asked Di Juyi to sit down, and said with a smile, "Old Di Ge, you have worked hard these days."

"It's not hard work, it's just that I'm in a hurry." Di Juyi said truthfully.

From Wu Sanyue's point of view, what Di Juyi said about panic was hard work.

Di Juyi has never been a person who can sit idle.

Di Juyi's life was almost killed during the days when he was left unemployed at home.

Later, Wu Sanyue reactivated Di Juyi, which undoubtedly gave Di Juyi a new life.

And during this period of pretending to be dead, Di Juyi was not idle, he was still in the important position of prime minister, thinking of having so many things to do, but hiding at home every day pretending to be dead, thinking about it, life would be worse than death.

Wu Sanyue took out some high-quality tea leaves as compensation for Di Juyi.

Di Juyi took the tea and left happily.

"Di Juyi is old after all, what do you think he should do if he drives west someday?" Wu Sanyue seldom thinks about these things, but if she doesn't, it doesn't mean that these things won't happen.

Yang Jiu said with a smile: "There are talented people from generation to generation, each leading the way for hundreds of years."

Di Juyi is indeed excellent, but if Di Juyi passes away, there will definitely be more outstanding talents.

There is never a shortage of excellent talents, the key depends on whether they can be dug out.

"Jiu'er can still talk." Wu Sanyue thought so too.

At any rate, Di Juyi is still alive and solving her problems, that's enough.

"What does Wei Zhongxian want you to do this time?" Wu Sanyue suddenly changed the subject, talking about this matter, she was very unhappy.

Yang Jiu smiled and said, "It's better to look for the nine corpses."

"You say that he is an eunuch, even if he can gain longevity, what's the point?" Wu Sanyue couldn't understand.

Yang Jiu sighed, "Everyone probably wants to live forever."

"I don't want to." Wu Sanyue said.

Yang Jiu thought it was because you were still young, and in a few decades, when you were old and fading, and the King of Hades summoned you, you would probably use the power at hand to frantically seek longevity.

"Jiu'er, you have to take your time to find the dead bodies. Wei Zhongxian might die after a while." Wu Sanyue said with a grin.

Procrastination is sometimes a good strategy.

Now the Nine Corpses have only found four, and there are still five left. Yang Jiu feels that there is no need to delay.

With Wei Zhongxian still alive and clear-headed, with his help, finding all the nine corpses as possible is the real business.

When Yang Jiu left, Wu Sanyue was very reluctant to let go, her expression and tears made it look like she was about to say goodbye.

Yang Jiu finally left the palace and went straight to Dongchang.

"Here we come." Wei Zhongxian was in a daze holding a brazier.

He seemed to have expected that Yang Jiu would come, so he declined all civil and military officials who came to pay New Year's greetings early in the morning, and was waiting for Yang Jiu.

Yang Jiu saluted and asked, "Master Governor, when shall I leave?"

"Let's wait a few more days, at least we have to finish this year, right?" Wei Zhongxian said with a smile.

It seems that Wei Zhongxian is not in a hurry, so it can be delayed for a while.

Now that Jueqing may give birth at any time, Yang Jiu doesn't want him to be thousands of miles away from Chang'an City when Jueqing is giving birth.

Yang Jiu came here today to find out what Wei Zhongxian is saying.

With Wei Zhongxian's temperament, if he said he was not in a hurry, he must be in a hurry.

Even if he won't urge Yang Jiu to leave quickly, he will at least explain what he has to do.

"The civil strife in Tubo is serious..." Unexpectedly, when Wei Zhongxian opened his mouth, he was talking about Tubo.

Ludong Heya wanted to bring Tubo into the Great Xia Empire, and naturally met with unanimous opposition from the people of Tubo.

It is said that Ludong Heya has been beheaded, and there is also news that Ludong Heya has completely controlled Tubo, and it is a certainty that Tubo will enter the summer.

Wei Zhongxian seemed to care about these things, but actually he didn't care at all.

Yang Jiu guessed that there might be a Jiu corpse in Tubo Kingdom.

As expected, Wei Zhongxian then talked about the Nine Corpses.

"Just recently, I sensed the existence of nine corpses in Tubo..." Wei Zhongxian expressed concern.

The civil strife in Tubo is very likely to destroy the Nine Corpses.

Although the nine corpses are not so easy to be destroyed, it is not impossible.

Wei Zhongxian was talking about it, but he was still implying that Yang Jiu should start as soon as possible, the sooner the better.

But Wei Zhongxian will not force him, everything has to be done voluntarily by Yang Jiu.

"Master Governor, then I'll go back and make some preparations. I'll start on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year." Yang Jiu smiled.

Wei Zhongxian nodded and smiled, "Okay."

Yang Jiu is really sensible.

After leaving the East Factory, Yang Jiu casually went shopping in the street and bought both Jueqing and Gan Sisi their favorite food.

"Are you leaving again?" Jueqing looked at the delicious food, without any appetite.

Yang Jiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will wait for you to give birth."

"Master Wei is in a hurry, why are you waiting?" Ruanqing was in a very bad mood.

Yang Jiu hugged her lightly, and persuaded: "Don't worry about getting angry, I have my own way."

Wait until the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and then find an excuse to stay for a few more days until the day of unfeeling delivery.

While talking, Jueqing suddenly covered his stomach, screaming that it hurts.
