Chapter 176 Conspiracy
White Fang returned to the inn, opened the bag, took out a stack of documents, and looked at them seriously.

The official's name is Li Fang, the second rank of Keluo Guozheng, a senior official, and has been an official for 30 years. He is a veteran of the two dynasties. The incident is suspected to have started three years ago.

There is also a portrait drawn by the artist in the data. The man in the portrait is thin, with a goatee, a face shaped like a knife, a broad forehead, and eyes like a falcon.

White Fang remembered this face in his heart, then burned the materials, and lay down to rest, only waiting for action after dark.

When it was dark, Bai Ya started to move. Bai Ya first left the inn, and then ran to check around Li Fang's mansion. Li Fang's mansion was located on the west side of the imperial city, covering a large area. There are two big lions carved in stone, which look mighty and domineering. There is a big plaque with two big characters "Li Mansion" written in flying and phoenix dancing. There are two big red lanterns hanging on the left and right of the plaque. Pedestrians dare not look directly.

White Fang watched for a while, and found that no one came in or out of the mansion, but a small carriage pulled by mules was parked not far from the door, and the driver was wearing a blue cloth kerchief, pretending to be dozing off, but his squinted eyes Staring at the direction of Li's house from time to time, Bai Fang looked at the coachman's cultivation, and found that a little coachman was actually a master at the peak of the day after tomorrow.

Bai Fang walked along the courtyard wall of the Li Mansion to a secluded place, then turned over and jumped in.

The interior of Li's Mansion is very luxurious, with rockery and pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, ponds and small bridges, everything is extremely luxurious, Bai Fang took advantage of the night and quickly walked to the main hall of Li's Mansion.

The layout of the Li Mansion was briefly introduced in the documents given to Bai Ya by the Emperor Keluo. With these introductions, Bai Ya found the outside of the main hall of the Li Mansion. , constantly carrying plates and food boxes, obviously the people inside are eating.

Bai Fang went up to the roof, walked lightly to the top of the hall, looked inside, and found that Li Fang was sitting on the top, and a middle-aged man was sitting on the right. The dishes were rich, but such a big There are only two people eating in a hall.

Bai Ya wanted to search Li Fang's bedroom during Li Fang's meal time, but just as he was about to leave, he heard Li Fang say to the middle-aged man below: "Brother Fang came from Daqin. Guest, let me offer you a toast..."

Bai Ya suddenly stopped abruptly, then looked down carefully, and found that the middle-aged man called Brother Fang was very faceless below him. The people who came from Daqin did not know what they were here for. I had to lie on the roof and wait slowly.

Li Fang and the man surnamed Fang ate for about half an hour before eating and drinking properly. During the period, the two chatted with each other. Luo Guo didn't say a word about what he was doing.

After they finished their meal, they washed their hands and rinsed their mouths under the service of the maid, and then served tea, while Li Fang left and left, leaving only Fang Haitong in the hall, and Li Fang sat in the upper seat.

"Brother Fang came to look for me this time, what is your purpose?" Li Fang took a sip of tea, and walked down the Fang Hai passageway.

"Hehe, it's been more than 20 years since you and I said goodbye back then. I didn't expect Brother Li to be a first-rank official. It's really gratifying. I came here this time to reminisce about the past, and secondly, I really have something to ask Brother Li for advice." "Fang Haitong cupped his hands and said to Li Fang.

Li Fang listened, put down his teacup, and looked at Fang Haitong.

"That's right, you know that I'm following His Royal Highness Yue Xingyun now. The civil strife in the Great Qin is still going on, and the prince Yue Bufeng is leading a group of rebels to make troubles everywhere, making the whole Great Qin miserable. His Highness wants to encircle and suppress Yue Bufeng and other rebels several times. , but every time the plan failed. This time, Yue Bufeng got a lot of money from nowhere. He had already sent people to the country of Keluo to buy food, and wanted to go back to recruit soldiers and horses. Unexpectedly, this matter was known by His Highness. They intercepted this batch of grain and grass on the way back." Fang Haitong said with an angry expression on his face.

"Oh? There is such a thing? No wonder the emperor has been mobilizing food and grass these days. It turned out to be sold to Yue Bufeng. I don't know who Yue Bufeng sent?" Li Fang stroked his beard. Said with squinting eyes.

"The name of the person here is Bai Ya, he is a master, and he has 500 people with him." Fang Haitong said quickly when he saw that Li Fang was interested.

"What do you want me to do? Do you want me to lobby the emperor not to sell grain to Yue Feng?" Li Fang asked.

Fang Haitong quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no, on the contrary, brother Li should try his best to persuade your emperor to sell grain to Yue Bufeng's people. If Yue Bufeng's people want to transport grain back to Daqin, the goal will be huge. Brother Li just needs to send them With the road map for transporting food back to the closed city, His Royal Highness will definitely send people to ambush them on the road. How can their mere 500 people resist the attack of my tens of thousands of people? At that time, the food will be given to him by Yue Bufeng Your Highness."

Fang Haitong had a smug look on his face, as if the food was already in Yue Xingyun's pocket.

Li Fang stroked his beard, bowed his head and remained silent.

"Brother Li, please don't worry. Your Highness will definitely thank you after the matter is completed. Here is the meeting gift His Highness asked me to bring to Brother Li. Please accept it first." A box was handed to Li Fang.

Li Fang raised his head, took the box doubtfully, opened it, and quickly closed the lid, with a look of ecstasy on his face, and said with a smile: "Hehe, Your Highness is too polite, this is a trivial matter, and I will leave it to you." I will definitely not let you down."

Fang Haitong cursed secretly in his heart: "Old fox, if you don't see rabbits, you don't scatter hawks. When it's not good, you just pretend to be silent. If it's good, anyone can be your father." But there was a smile on his face and he said: "Brother Li With this sentence, the younger brother will be satisfied, I will take my leave first, and I will bother you tomorrow to discuss the next thing, and I will bring a carrier pigeon for communication."

After speaking, Fang Haitong was about to get up and leave.

Li Fang pretended to be enthusiastic to stay: "Brother Fang, you and I haven't seen each other for many years, why did you leave so soon? You and I should talk about wine until dawn."

Fang Haitong cupped his hands and said, "After finishing what His Highness told you, I will come to catch up on the old days."

Li Fang sat still and said: "Oh, His Highness's matter is important, so I won't keep Brother Fang, but I don't worry about not seeing Brother Fang, Brother Fang, take care, go slowly."

Fang Haitong went straight out of the hall, then quickly walked out of Li's mansion, and got into the pony cart pulled by mules in front of Li's mansion.

Bai Ya saw everything below clearly just now, and shouted in his heart that it was a fluke, if he hadn't come this time, maybe the food he bought this time would have been given to Yue Xingyun for nothing, even if there were more on his side Master, with 1 people on the other side, the hope of food preservation is also very slim.

After Fang Haitong left the hall, Li Fang's smiling face immediately changed into a cold smile. He took out the box and opened it. A bead the size of an egg emitted a burst of green light. Li Fang put the bead Holding it in his hand, after watching it carefully, he said with a sneer to himself: "Hehe, this Yue Xingyun is really willing to spend all his money. He took out the Lianhu Yemingzhu, which is considered cheap for me."
