The old east wind comes to dream

The postman obviously didn't expect Li Lianying to ask a question suddenly, he was frightened suddenly and trembled all over.

Seeing this, Lian Yongkang immediately frowned, stepped back a few steps, and Li Lianying and Li Lianying sandwiched the postman.

The post officer felt a little weak at the moment. Seeing that the two men were looking at him, he had to brace himself up and defended tremblingly: "This, this No. [-] room is the innermost and the quietest. Both adults If you didn’t check in, the lower officials, the lower officials guessed that someone with a noble status came here in disguise.”

Li Lianying made a smirk, "The No. [-] room is on the side, and there is a window facing the backyard. You tell me that this is a nobleman's residence. Could it be that you are deceiving me? You don't even know us. I don't know the identity of this group of people, but I can guess that there are some nobles among us just by looking at the badges of the customs clearance of the Hedong Mansion, it seems that Li Yiguan is really inferior to this small management station."

She raised her chin again and compared to Gu Zizhan's direction, Li Lianying continued: "So, this only mung bean soup is only prepared for noble people, isn't it?"

Lian Yongkang's frown deepened, and he got a little closer to Li Yiguan, obviously preparing to subdue him at any time.Liu Zan on the side didn't even bother to knock on the door, walked quickly to Gu Zizhan, and raised his hand to get the bowl of mung bean soup.

At this time, Gu Zizhan seemed to be startled by the sounds behind him, holding the scroll, and slowly turned around.

Stopping Liu Zan's movements, Gu Zizhan raised his eyebrows, "Hey, everyone is visiting late at night, what's the matter?"

Li Lianying took a step forward and replied: "My lord, the Guanyi in Angzhou City is Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Li Yiguan and I have been circling for a long time, and we really want to see you, a nobleman."

Gu Zizhan laughed, "Lord Li and General Lian have extraordinary bearing, and Li Yiguan must have seen it from this."

Li Yiguan nodded his head as if he had received an amnesty.

Li Lianying shot a hard look at Li Yiguan, and then said to Gu Zizhan: "Anyway, this bowl of mung bean soup is strange, young master, I'd better not drink it. I'll take it for inspection and then deal with it."

Gu Zizhan shook his head, picked up the bowl of mung bean soup, and said to Li Yiguan, "You don't need to be so troublesome."

"Please ask the post officer to drink it in front of us, isn't it all right? If there is nothing wrong with us, then we are rude, and I will apologize to the post official at that time. If the post official has any discomfort, haha, That’s all to blame for!”

Li Yiguan's frightened face was ashen, and he wailed repeatedly: "This mung bean soup was not arranged by the subordinate!"

Gu Zizhan stood up and looked at him, followed his words with a chuckle and added, "It wasn't prepared by the post officer, but it must have been prepared by your subordinates. Why, my lord doesn't want to drink it?"

"Or, Mr. Post Officer, what do you know, but you can't tell us?"

The post officer Li couldn't hold it any longer, he fell to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly, "My lord, I know I was wrong. You are a star, and there are a lot of adults. Please let the little one go! The villain has also been punished by his superiors." Order, otherwise, I would never dare to hurt the nobleman!"

Hearing that he would say that, Gu Zizhan couldn't help but glance at Li Lianying and Lian Yongkang.Both of them were quite surprised.According to what the post officer said, not only did he know Gu Zizhan's identity, but someone from above ordered him to murder Gu Zizhan.It's just that Emperor Tianshun couldn't be the one who ordered such a small person to go out. So, who is this person?

Li Lianying's mind was spinning quickly, and she immediately remembered that Li Yiguan mentioned earlier that it was related to the East Palace!It's just that the East Palace, besides the prince, who else would it be!

While the two had different thoughts, they heard Gu Zizhan ask straight to the point: "Boss? I don't know who is the boss of the station official? Is it the magistrate of Angzhou, or the governor of Hexi Prefecture? Or, which high-ranking official in the capital?" ?”

Li Yiguan listened to her question, his upper and lower lips were trembling, but he couldn't open his mouth for a long time.

Gu Zizhan then continued: "In the imperial city, everyone knows that His Highness treats me regardless of each other, so it is definitely not His Highness who wants to harm me." He also pointed to Li Lianying and Lian Yongkang, "Your Majesty, why not?" As far as you are concerned, these two lords are following His Majesty's order to bring me back to the capital safely. If you want to murder me, you are ruining this errand and even hurting Your Majesty's face. Think about it carefully, you Can the one above compare to the two nobles I mentioned just now?"

Seeing that the post officer was still hesitating and struggling, Gu Zizhan seemed to have lost his patience. He waved his hand and said to Liu Zan, "If the post officer doesn't want to say it, then it goes without saying. Give him this bowl of mung bean soup!"

Liu Zan glanced at Lian Yongkang, Lian Yongkang immediately waved his hand, and behind him two big men of dragoon guards stepped forward and firmly subdued the post officer from left and right.

Li Lianying felt something was wrong, and said: "Wait—" But before he finished speaking, Liu Zan quickly grabbed the post officer by the throat, and poured the whole bowl of mung bean soup into his mouth.Afterwards, the post officer immediately fell to his knees, the severe pain rising in his stomach made it hard for him to hold on, so he rolled on the ground.

Gu Zizhan took a step forward, stepped on his chest, and asked sharply, "Say it! Who ordered you! If you don't say anything now, you will really have a dead end!"

The post officer's face was covered with snot and tears, and he knew that the poison in this bowl of mung bean soup was a rare poison that could not be cured, otherwise Gu Zizhan would not have panicked and revealed himself when he asked him to drink it.Now, all hope is lost.Hearing what Gu Zizhan said, the desire to survive overcame the fear of betrayal and denunciation, and he whimpered, "I...I said! The gods save me!"

Gu Zizhan put in a lot of strength, but he just stepped on the belly of the post officer, and he couldn't bear it any longer, and vomited.Following this burst of violent vomiting, he only felt that the colic in his stomach eased slightly, and then Gu Zizhan's strength became heavier, and the colic suddenly aggravated a bit.

Repeatedly like this several times, the post officer couldn't hold it any longer, and spit out a mouthful of black blood with a whimper.Immediately, not daring to delay any longer, he hurriedly shouted: "Yes, it's Xing Tongzhi!" Struggling to sit up halfway, he shouted hoarsely: "God, nobleman, help me!"

Gu Zizhan moved his feet away from him, curled his lips with a look of disgust.Turning around, he threw out a white porcelain bottle, Liu Zan caught it, and heard Gu Zizhan say: "Give it to him, he won't die."

Looking at Li Lianying and Lian Yongkang again, Gu Zizhan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "My lords, it seems that there are some people in Angzhou City who are not safe and want to ruin your jobs!"

Li Lianying's complexion was extremely bad, she already knew that there must be villains among them who were stirring up trouble, she asked Lian Yongkang, "General Lian, how should we deal with this matter?"

Lian Yongkang laughed, "It's just a small seventh-rank acquaintance, will Mr. Li still be afraid of him? I'm going to tie him back now, but I want to see if there is anyone above him!"

Li Lianying nodded, feeling annoyed in his heart.Just like what Gu Zizhan said just now, if something happened to her on the way, no matter whether there were other people's intentions or not, from his own point of view, he would have messed up the errand.A little colleague is not worthy of letting him look forward and backward!

Seeing that Lian Yongkang had led his troops away, Li Lianying also knew that this person was obviously close to Gu Zizhan, so he would save himself from going through this muddy water.He commanded the remaining dragoon guards to carry the postman Li down.

Just in time, I heard that Li Yiguan, who had taken the antidote and gradually regained some strength, was asking Gu Zizhan in disbelief: "My lord, what kind of medicine is this, I feel much better immediately!"

Gu Zizhan laughed loudly and said:

"Elixir!"

That Tongzhi Xing didn't take a rest, he was still waiting for the news of Gu Zizhan's death in his mansion, which was ordinary on the surface but extravagant on the inside.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the mansion, and immediately, there were noisy footsteps and shouts and curses intercepted by servants, pouring into his yard.

Xing Tongzhi immediately opened the Eight Immortals Table beside him. The secret door in the corner had just been opened, and before he had time to hide in, he saw a group of dragoon guards in bright armor breaking through the door.Well now, the door of the dark room was still open, he had nowhere to escape, and he also missed the dark room full of gold, silver and jewels.

Lian Yongkang caught this moth almost effortlessly.

Unlike Li Yiguan, who was still a little scrupulous and could last for a while, Xing Tongzhi, a paper tiger who was used to being pampered and always domineering, was so scared that when he saw a hunter with real swords and guns, he was so frightened that he spit all over the floor.

Lian Yongkang looked at the coquettish Xing Tongzhi who was paralyzed like mud in front of him, with the young master's temper in his bones, he was so disgusted that he didn't know where to start.

Seeing this, a personal guard tentatively asked: "General, why don't you let him wash first?"

Lian Yongkang was laughed angrily, and couldn't help cursing: "Wash your ass!" Thinking that Tongzhi Xing really should wash his ass first if he wants to wash, and he was almost amused by himself, his complexion suddenly became distorted, and he coughed: "Then Wrap him with a few more layers of sheets and take him away first!"

After all, he strode out, thinking in his heart that if he goes back by himself, he should wash up, wash his eyes!Too spicy!

**********

After working all night, Lian Yongkang reported the results of last night's interrogation to Gu Zizhan and Li Lianying early the next morning.

This case is clear and clear, and the dragon rider guards are different from ordinary prefectural and county government officials, they have no scruples when interrogating people, and they often recruit everyone who needs to be recruited after a set of punishments are given.This time it was especially fun, they were all soft-boned bastards, they didn't even get on the board, they just bluffed a few words, and then they talked all about it.

The person who poisoned was Ren Laoer, a servant in Guan Yizhong, and the one who ordered him was naturally Li Yiguan.And when Li Yiguan said he was ordered by his superiors, he meant Xing Tongzhi.As for who Xing Tongzhi was instigated by, it was basically clear when his identity was found out.

In Xing Tongzhi's family, there is a cousin who is a high official. This cousin also has a good daughter who married into the East Palace.

Besides Xing Kang, who else could it be?

However, what Gu Zizhan didn't expect was that the hydrangea ball that Gu Che was hit on the head to recruit relatives had something to do with Tongzhi Xing.

It turned out that Xing Tongzhi, who was still a clerk in Angzhou City at that time, used his cousin who was a Beijing official to run amok in Angzhou City when Xing Kang was not yet prosperous.Seeing that the Zhou family had a great career and only such a well-known daughter as Miss Zhou, he had the idea of ​​marrying by force.Master Zhou was so forced that he couldn't do anything about it, so he came up with the hydrangea match, anxious to find a son from a clean family to recruit a husband for his daughter.

Gu Zizhan was brought back to life in this Dazhao by a combination of circumstances and circumstances.

Later, when Xing Kang gained power, this Xing Tongzhi naturally went up and became Xing Tongzhi.Relying on the identity of the prince's father-in-law's clan, he became even more unscrupulous and domineering.In a short time, the dark room was filled with gold, silver and jewels.Based on the principle of not forgetting the well digger when drinking water, naturally, Xing Kang in the capital also got a lot of benefits from him.

Gu Zizhan couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw the densely packed account book as thick as bricks.I like bookkeeping, what a great hobby!
