The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 871

Xu Tian asked his housekeeper for a favor.

The butler was flattered.

"Your Highness, please speak. Whatever it may be, this servant will do his utmost."

He has now decided to follow Xu Tian completely.

No matter what Xu Tian wanted him to do, even if he wanted him to die, he didn't care.

Now all that matters is that his family is safe.

He can do anything.

Xu Tian bluntly stated, "All I need is for you to send Li Shen a false message, letting him know that the embezzled funds are still in our mansion."

The housekeeper was stunned.

"this......"

If Li Shen finds out about this, he will definitely bring people to search and confiscate the Prince's mansion.

Isn't this just inviting a wolf into the house?

Xu Tian knew what the housekeeper was worried about.

"Steward, you need not worry. I have already arranged everything. You just need to spread the word."

The butler felt much more at ease after hearing Xu Tian's words.

Only then did he go out and enter the place where he always met with Li Shen.

However, this time, he did not notify Li Shen's people.

Instead, he told one of his closer friends about it.

He knew very well that this person was a distant relative of the steward in Li Shen's household.

Once he finds out about this, Li Shen will definitely find out as well.

As expected, Li Shen soon learned of this news.

Then he quickly led his men into Xu Tian's residence.

Meanwhile, Xu Tian took advantage of Li Shen's unpreparedness to transfer a large amount of dirty silver into Li Shen's house.

Li Shen thought he could finally capture Xu Tian this time.

He arrived at Xu Tian's residence with brimming confidence.

They thought they would finally catch Xu Tian red-handed this time.

But to my surprise, this time it was exactly the same as the previous times.

They led their men into Xu Tian's residence, but found nothing.

He returned empty-handed once again.

He originally planned to send someone to have the steward arrest him after returning to the mansion.

This time, however, he had no intention of letting him off easily.

Instead, they were preparing to actually kill him.

After being teased by the housekeeper several times.

He's completely ready to let you off the hook.

But just as they entered the mansion...

Xu Tian's men instantly surrounded them all.

"Xu Tian!"

Li Shen never expected that Xu Tian would be with him.

Moreover, he was holding an imperial sword.

"Xu Tian, ​​what do you want to do?"

He was terrified for a moment.

The sword in Xu Tian's hand has the power to execute first and report later.

Upon seeing Xu Tian, ​​he had a bad feeling.

Then he heard a voice.

"Your Highness! All the stolen money is here."

The guards behind him carried out several large boxes.

This stuff came directly from his own residence, so Li Shen naturally recognized it.

He was stunned for a moment.

After going around in circles, how did this box end up back here again?

He looked at Xu Tian.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

Xu Tian looked at Li Shen coldly.

"Does the Tenth Prince recognize this sword?"

Li Shen remained silent.

Xu Tian continued, "Today, I found so much stolen money in the Tenth Prince's residence. Tenth Prince, what is your punishment?"

Li Shen was stunned for a moment.
