Ninth Grade Jailer: He actually went on a blind date with the leader of the Demon Cult at the beginn

Chapter 289 Fishing in troubled waters, everyone has their own agenda

It is certainly not difficult to let the treasure-hunting mouse go to the treasure house of Prince Xiaoyao to steal treasures. But the problem is, the treasure-hunting rat can only pick up one item at a time.

One piece at a time, going back and forth, this is a waste of time and greatly increases the risk of detection.

What Li Nuo wants is to catch them all!

The Yuchang Sword, Qingfeng Sword and Dark Iron Heavy Sword, these three weapons greatly improved his strength.

[Dark Iron Heavy Sword] is extremely powerful when used with Leifeng Sunset to charge into battle; [Qingfeng Sword] is simply even more powerful when paired with One Sword Coming from the East. It is not difficult to kill an enemy dozens of miles away; [Fish Gut Sword] is very convenient for dissecting demon corpses...

From frugality to luxury.

Of course Li Nuo was thinking about King Xiaoyao's treasure house.

Let's do this, you all stay at home, and I'll take Xiaobai out for a walk.

Li Nuo thought for a moment and said.

squeak.

The sharp-eared treasure-hunting rat immediately swooped over when he heard his name was called.

It is said that heroes emerge from troubled times, and the times create heroes. But Li Nuo doesn't want to be a hero, he just wants to fish in troubled waters secretly...

Ye Qingyu took Li Nuo's arm and said with a worried look, It wouldn't be good if my husband goes out too, right? I don't know how many people will be implicated in King Xiaoyao's rebellion. Once my husband falls into this quagmire, no matter whether he is innocent or not, , I’m afraid they will all be shattered into pieces.”

As Li Nuo's closest friend, Ye Qingyu certainly knew the length and thickness of her husband... Oh no, it was his cultivation strength, so she was not worried that Li Nuo would be in danger in the rebellion. She considered it It is more about the competition between various forces in the court.

Once you are caught by hostile forces, they don't care whether you are innocent or not. They are afraid that any dirty water will be poured on you, and it will be difficult to prove your innocence by then.

This is not something you say casually, this is something that has been learned from the past!

Think about how your husband fell from a promising number one scholar to a little jailer at the bottom a year ago.

In addition to the emperor's personal will, are there really no other hostile forces behind the scenes?

Political games and killings are always invisible.

Li Nuo knew what the lady was worried about.

But now that he had such a God-given opportunity, he really didn't want to give up.

God has put meat in your mouth, but you dare not speak for fear of choking to death?

This is going to be punished by God!

What's more, he has the [lucky fate] of lucky star shining brightly, and he will definitely not be disappointed!

Just when Li Nuo was thinking about how to convince his wife, there was another burst of very rapid horse hooves on the street.

嘘嘘嘚——

Xu... Is Mr. Li, the doctor of the Ministry of Punishment, at home?

The sound of horse hoofbeats suddenly stopped outside the hospital.

Then there was a heavy knock on the door and a man's urgent question.

Li Nuo stepped forward and opened the door. When he saw the person coming, his eyes were full of surprise: Hey, it turns out to be Captain Xu. Why are you in such a hurry?

To be honest, the relationship between Xu Xiaowei, who formed his own sect in the Chang'an government office, and Li Nuo were not harmonious, and it would be more accurate to describe them as hatred.

Previously at the Xiangguo Temple, the First Sword deliberately caused the collapse of the Buddha statue in the Main Hall and sneaked into the back mountain to kill the monk Huikong who was recovering from his injuries.

After the murder occurred, it was Captain Xu who led the troops and wanted to arrest Huijue ascetic and use him as a scapegoat. However, this was blocked by Li Nuo, which could be regarded as being severely punished in public. He gained Xu Xiaowei’s face.

The most important thing for an official is his face.

Li Nuo was slapped in the face like this, and Xu Xiaowei naturally hated him in his heart. So he was very curious, why did Colonel Xu, who had a gap with him, bring his soldiers and horses to the west of the city to look for him?

Xu Xiaowei cupped his hands, blaming all the faults on himself, and said apologetically: Master Li, I have offended you many times before, please forgive me. Tonight King Xiaoyao raises his troops to rebel. As Dayin's ministers, we must work together to bring down the enemy. The only way to suppress it is to suppress it, I hope Mr. Li can help me!

Li Nuo pretended to know that he just knew it, and said with an indignant look: I asked you why there is so much chaos outside. It turns out that it is King Xiaoyao who is plotting rebellion! This Li Zaifeng is not a son of a human being, nor is he an official of the king in vain! I dare to ask Mr. Xu, what happened to the Suzaku Clan? Have the rebels captured it?

Lieutenant Xu said with an ugly face: King Xiaoyao armed tens of thousands of Jianghu Rangers with armor and bribed the guards of the Suzaku Gate. Just a quarter of an hour ago, these rebels had controlled Suzaku Street, and now they should have joined forces with the Imperial City. The guards were handed over in close combat. Once the palace is breached, I'm afraid the world will change hands...

Li Nuo said with an upright face: Tell me, how can I help?

Lieutenant Xu gritted his teeth and said: Your Majesty gave you a [golden talisman] before your eastward tour. This thing can mobilize part of the army. I hope you will follow me to the military camp outside the city to mobilize troops into the city. Otherwise, the palace will be in danger! The world will be in danger!

Li Nuo asked again: Is this something you did privately, Mr. Xu, or was it someone's order?

The army is a public weapon, how can it be given to each other privately? This is the decree sent by His Highness the King of Qin to the government office. Mr. Li, please take a look...

Xu Xiaowei hurriedly took out the decree of supervising the country and showed it to Li Nuo for review.

Li Nuo took it and took a look. The handwriting on the brocade silk was indeed written by the King of Qin himself. It was a bit sloppy. It must have been written in a hurry, and he didn't even have time to stamp it with the seal.

Aren't there two guards, Long Xiang and Hu Ben, in the city?

Li Nuo closed his will and asked with a frown.

These two guards are both elite. One against a hundred may be a bit excessive, but one against ten is absolutely no problem. Moreover, if they form a military formation, a fourth-level master will only be strangled if they fall into it.

Therefore, even the Jianghu Rangers, who are armed to the teeth, will never get any advantage once they encounter these two armies head-on.

The officers and soldiers of the Huben camp are simply a bunch of people... Tiance Mansion's tiger talisman for mobilizing troops has been lost, and it is impossible to mobilize them. And the main force of the Long Xiang army was taken away by His Majesty. There are only three thousand soldiers left in the city. They are now being mobilized. Those rebellious ministers and traitors were entangled, and it was difficult to free their hands for a while. The only solution now was to go to the military camp outside the city to mobilize troops into the city. Mr. Li, the situation is urgent. Once the palace is breached, it will be too late. Please don't worry about it. Past suspicion...

I don't know whether Captain Xu is loyal to his duty or has other intentions. In short, he keeps his posture very low in front of Li Nuo, and he seems to be a completely different person from what he saw at Xiangguo Temple before.

Of course Li Nuo would not be stupid enough to mobilize troops outside the city. [Golden Talisman] The will of the supervising country can indeed mobilize the army, but it will take at least an hour to bring the army into the city every time. This delay is really too long.

Moreover, once the war is over and the emperor returns, he will definitely be settled by the Queen.

Military power is the opposite of the emperor.

It's okay to mobilize three to five hundred people, but how can the emperor sleep well if he mobilizes an army of one hundred thousand?

Today is about countering the rebellion, and if you do it well, you will be a great hero. What about tomorrow? Will it be a military remonstrance to force the palace?

Every time you learn something, you gain wisdom. Li Nuo's mind is very flexible. Although he was ready to break up with the emperor, on the bright side, he must not be caught in any way.

And don't underestimate the officials at Yushitai.

Those who claim to be clean and honest are eager for you to make mistakes. It will even magnify your small problems infinitely.

Li Nuo threw the [Golden Talisman] to Colonel Xu without thinking, and then said like a loyal minister: Colonel Xu, you go and mobilize troops outside the city. I want to go to the palace to protect His Highness King Qin!

Captain Xu grabbed the [Golden Talisman] and couldn't help but feel happy.

Leading troops into the city to quell the rebellion, where else can the rebellious King Xiaoyao escape? This is a great achievement!

Since Li Nuo doesn't want it, it would be disrespectful for him to reject it!

Captain Xu, who was secretly happy in his heart, immediately ordered his soldiers and rushed out of the city non-stop, fearing that Li Nuo would change his mind and stop him.

The horse's hooves flew away, and the dust settled quietly. Li Nuo's mouth curled up slightly, with a look of ridicule in his eyes.

Brother Xu, Brother Xu, you were sold and you secretly count the money!

There are many officials in Chang'an Prefecture who have higher official positions than you. Why is it you who is the one delivering the decree?

Isn’t this obvious?

The governor, tongshang, and tongzhi are all cunning foxes, so they won’t do such a thankless thing!

Leading a large army into the city to quell the rebellion can only be done if the emperor issues an imperial edict, and the edict of supervising the country alone is not enough!

Although the regent of the country is under one person and over ten thousand people, it is not an exaggeration to call him nine thousand years old, but he cannot just put his hand into the army.

And Emperor Jingshun, who was far away at the foot of Mount Tai, preparing to climb the mountain before sunrise tomorrow morning to enshrine the Zen, was happy for these people to jump out and cause chaos so that he could catch them all. If we issue an imperial edict now to let the army enter the city to suppress the rebellion, we will only be able to catch King Xiaoyao, a big fish.

Ah!

Where is one big fish enough?

Emperor Jingshun’s appetite is huge!

Back to business.

After watching Colonel Xu leading his troops away, Ye Qingyu stepped forward and asked, Isn't Captain Xu a member of the Xu family?

Li Nuo shook his head and said: It seems that he is a distant relative of Commander Xu. His bloodline is already out of the fifth server. Let's not talk about him. Madam, you stay at home and I will take Xiaobai out for a walk. Don't worry, I am sensible. ,look……

With that said, Li Nuo put a mask on his face. In an instant, the aura on his body was completely restrained, and even Ye Qingyu, who was very close to him, had difficulty sensing it.

Ye Qingyu couldn't help but lean on her husband's chest and sniff, and said in surprise: Husband, this mask of yours is really a good treasure!

This is of course the [Mask of All Living Beings].

However, Li Nuo did not use it to disguise himself, so the mask on his face was just a mask, covering his appearance, but the effect of concealing his aura remained unchanged.

He said proudly: Looking like this, anyone who is not an acquaintance shouldn't be able to recognize me, right?

Well, it's a good thing that I'm familiar with my husband's figure, otherwise I would have made a mistake.

Ye Qingyu smiled sweetly.

Li Nuo pulled Ye Qingyu's hand: Okay, just let Heiniu and Lao Ma guard the front and back doors for a while. With them here, safety issues will be guaranteed.

Husband, I'm afraid that Sister Ziyuan will be in danger. Why don't we let them go to Ziyuan's place? Or we can take Ziyuan and the others over to live here?

Ye Qingyu said.

She still values ​​this sisterhood very much.

No, Ziyuan should be safe over there, and there will be someone to protect it.

Li Nuo smiled confidently.

Because he believed that Beiyue would fly to Sophora japonica.

That guy is an infatuated person, otherwise he could go to Yuzhou alone to find his childhood sweetheart Liu Xiangjun?

Since there are rebels plotting rebellion in Chang'an City tonight, he will definitely run to find Liu Xiangjun as soon as possible.

Having lost it once, you will naturally cherish it more.

Ye Qingyu smiled playfully: The Nu family almost forgot that Mr. Beiyue has been thinking about Miss Liu. That'll be fine. My husband will leave early and come back early. Don't take any risks.

Don't worry, if I'm really in danger, I'll throw Xiaobai out to attract the enemy's attention.

Li Nuo joked.

The treasure-hunting rat, which had revealed its true form and got into Li Nuo's sleeve, squeaked twice to express its dissatisfaction.

Virtue!

Ye Qingyu rolled her eyes charmingly.

After a while.

Li Nuo passed by Ziyuan's house.

really.

The man with a beard and a decadent look held his sword in both hands and leaned against the stone wall next to the door. And not far away from him, there were three gangsters who took advantage of the situation, motionless, and they didn't know whether they were dead or not.

Brother Beiyue, are you here so soon?

Li Nuo said with a smile.

Bei Yue Feihuai, who was staring at Li Nuo slowly approaching with a wary expression, heard Li Nuo's voice, put down his guard, and said lazily: Zian? What are you doing with a mask on? You hide your head. Tail, do you want to be a gentleman?

Li Nuo admitted generously: You guessed it right. Wearing a mask is a good way to fish in troubled waters.

Beiyue Feihuai said with disdain, Do you think the rebellion is a joke? Be careful of getting into trouble!

Li Nuo said confidently: The third-grade strong ones will not come out. As long as I am careful not to fall into the military formation, who can stop me?

Beiyue said again: But now that you're out, aren't you worried about your wife's safety?

Li Nuo: Someone is guarding the house.

What about the old horse demon? You persisted in dozens of moves in Peng Wanli's hands before defeating him. You are not worthy of being named a fourth-level demon general. Sometimes I think about it, and I really envy you.

Beiyue Feihuai said with emotion.

Of course, his Beiyue family also has many fourth-grade strong men as retainers, but the old man spent a lot of money to win over those people, and they are only loyal to the old man.

Li Nuo smiled and said: One hero has three gangs.

Beiyue Feihuai nodded: By the way, I mentioned King Yan's matter to my family.

Oh? What did your old man say?

Li Nuo asked curiously.

I had reminded Beiyue Feihuai before that King Yan, as a general of the border army, had colluded with the demon clan, which was not a trivial matter.

Beiyue Feihuai sighed: Well, the old man's attitude is ambiguous, and the uncles at home have great opinions. You also know that our Beiyue family has made a big bet on King Yan. If we really want to withdraw, we will lose money. It’s just too big.”

But if we continue, the losses will be even greater, and even the entire family will pay for it.

Li Nuo reminded.

But they won't listen. Anyway, I don't care. If it's really irreparable, then I will take my family to the Bashan Sword Field to avoid disaster.

Beiyue Feihuai found a way out.

You are free and easy. I won't say any more. I'm going to the palace to see His Highness King Qin. You can continue to guard your old prime minister.

After saying goodbye to Bei Yue, Li Nuo speeded up.

The closer to the south of the city, the greater the commotion. There were even stragglers appearing on the streets. They were not doing business, but they were very efficient at taking advantage of the situation.

Li Nuo also killed many people along the way.

But just around the corner, he saw an acquaintance.

Jiang Jingze!

How could the No. 1 scholar of Western Chu return to Chang'an if he didn't stay in the Royal Garden for a while?
