The mist in the morning had dissipated, and the bustling in Yongxingfang began to become popular. The vendors who set up stalls set up sticks, and several grocery shops were also open for business.

There are constant hawking sounds in the morning, and although I can no longer sleep in, it is the breath of life and makes people unable to feel resentment.

Li Xiu bought a veal meat patty and nibbled it carefully. The delicious green onion flavor was wrapped in thick minced mutton, and he took a bite and flowed oil along the corner of his mouth.

He likes this feeling of life at the bottom. This is a mark brought by his previous life, engraved in his bones and will never disappear.

Every day, Li Xiu would wander around Chang'an, and it was the tenth day he had moved to Yongxingfang.

At this time, a sound of firecrackers sounded from a distance, which was the crackling and bursting sound of throwing the bamboo tube into the fire, and then someone rode a horse and ran into the yard and shouted.

"Shas the Ye Dasheng, annihilate 60,000 enemies, and capture the enemy chief Tu Fire Immortal alive!"

"Shuoye Dasheng, capture the enemy chief Tu Fire Immortal alive!"

People ran out of the room, knocking on pots and pans, and cheers began to resound in the yard.

Ten days ago, it was a top-secret express, and today it should be the official military newspaper, and we need to celebrate with the people.

The shouts of good news gradually faded away, but a large and gorgeous carriage drove in from the gate and quickly drove towards this side, followed by more than a dozen horse-riding guards on both sides.

The carriage stopped abruptly in front of Li Xiu, and the curtain was opened, revealing Gao Lishi's familiar face.

"Brother Xiu, long time no see!"

Li Xiu tore the meat pie in half and handed the half that he had never eaten to Gao Lishi, "The family is poor and there is nothing to treat, Mr. Gao can try it?"

Gao Lishi laughed in silence, "Our family bet with the emperor, saying that your nature is hard to change, it seems that our family won!"

………….

In the room, Gao Lishi pushed him twenty ingots of silver, "Yesterday the Regent returned the Shangyi Bureau, and the Lord is very happy. This is a special reward for you."

Li Xiu's eyes narrowed into a line and received a silver reward of 500 taels, just like drinking a bottle of cold beer in Cool Summer, it was so cool.

"Does this kind of reward be available every month?"

"If you want to do tasks, you have them. If you don't do tasks, don't think about it."

Gao Lishi handed another envelope to Li Xiu and said with a smile: "This is also yours!"

Li Xiu pushed Baiyin aside first and opened the envelope. It was a large piece of jute paper, densely filled with small characters.

"What is this?"

"Lot deed! A five-hectare medicine shop, this is something that our family has specially won for you."

Li Xiu's eyes lit up, "This is my fiefdom!"

Li Xiu's life ideal in his previous life was to be a small landlord, with mountains, rivers, houses, fields and money. Now he finally has land, but it is still five hectares of land, which is five hundred acres!

“Where is the farmland?”

"It's the Medicine House!"

Gao Lishi sighed in his heart. This kid still doesn't understand the difference between Yaozhuang and Tianzhuang. Forget it, he will know it in the future.

"Walking southeast along the Ba River, about thirty miles away from Chang'an City and close to Lantian County, it was originally an industry in the inner warehouse, and there was a small manager."

"I have to go and have a look!" Li Xiu couldn't sit still.

Gao Lishi was really amused and crying. Is this still the prince? I was so excited that I was just five hectares of land.

Who doesn’t have hundreds of hectares of land? No one cares about it?

"I'm afraid you don't have time to see the manor for the time being!"

“Why?”

Gao Lishi pondered for a moment and said, "A major case has occurred in the palace, and the emperor asked you to participate too!"

Li Xiu suddenly felt excited, "Is this going to do a task?"

"It's not actually a task!"

Gao Lishi hesitated and said, "This case has a direct relationship with you. It is the follow-up of the shooting and gambling competition. In short, it is just a matter of saying that the emperor is no longer satisfied with regaining the Inner Guard Bureau. He wants to kill Niu Xiantong and completely regain control of the palace."

"Send an assassin to solve it, why bother to bluff?"

"You've thought the problem too easily!"

Gao Lishi sighed slightly, "The struggle with the Regent must be based on methods and methods. The Lord sent someone to assassinate Niu Xiantong, and the Regent will also send someone to assassinate me.

The key to maintaining stability for fifteen years is that both sides strictly abide by the consensus reached that year. Without sufficient reasons and evidence, ministers and internal officials shall not be demoted. To kill Niu Xiantong, there must be evidence of his crime."

"Gao Weng means that there is evidence now?"

Gao Lishi nodded, "There is no evidence, it's just that it has something to do with Niu Xiantong."

"I'll listen carefully!"

"The Master has placed three Taoist treasures in Xuandu Temple. Three months ago, these three treasures disappeared unexpectedly. The Master sent someone to investigate for two months. All signs indicate that these three treasures were stolen by the Longyang Zhenren."

Li Xiu's eyes rolled, "It was my father who deliberately placed it in Xuanduguan!"

Gao Lishi gave a thumbs up, "You are very smart, that's true!"

"Then what?"

"Then we found that the three treasures were not in the hands of the Longyang Real Man, and it was probably in the hands of Niu Xiantong, but we had no evidence."

Li Xiu understood a little, "If you find evidence, can you impeach Niu Xiantong?"

Gao Lishi shook his head, "The thing was stolen by Zhenren Longyang, and the one who was guilty was Zhenren Longyang. Niu Xiantong could get rid of the crime without knowing it."

Li Xiu was confused again, "I don't understand what Gao Weng means, please make it clear!"

"It's very simple. We just want to find an excuse to search Niu Xiantong's mansion. There are rumors that he had hidden a large number of weapons in the mansion."

"Just like the Niu Xiantong who used the excuse of catching monsters and sent Long Yang Zhenren to search Gao Weng's mansion?"

"It's totally correct! But this excuse must be glamorous and grand, so that the Regent can say nothing. If we can find evidence that Niu Xiantong has hidden Taoist treasures in private, then we have a reason to search his house."

Li Xiu laughed, "Mr. Gao, I think this plan is a bit unreliable. If I were a fairy boy, I would simply hand over the three Taoist treasures, and the excuse you found was gone without a trace."

"It's more troublesome, but if you know Niu Xiantong, you will feel that there is a chance. He is a greedy person and will never spit out the things he gets. He will only hide three Taoist treasures and will never hand over them."

"But kill Niu Xiantong, can the father control the palace? The Regent can continue to support Sun Liu, and his qualifications are no less than Niu Xiantong!"

"Sun Liu is dead!"

"Dead?" Li Xiu was stunned.

"We took over the Inner Health Bureau and found that the accounts and actual expenditures were seriously inconsistent. Inner Health Bureau should have 1,000 guards, but in fact there were only 700 people, and 300 people did not exist at all.

Over the past ten years, Sun Liu embezzled at least 200,000 yuan, and 200,000 yuan was seized in his mansion. The Regent was also furious and ordered strict handling. Five days ago, Sun Liu committed suicide due to crimes."

"So the regent's power in the palace is now only Niu Xiantong!"

Gao Lishi nodded, "This is why the emperor is eager to kill him."

"Niu Xiantong must have embezzlement, so why not investigate his embezzlement? I think it is more reliable than investigating Taoist treasures."

Gao Lishi said lightly: "Niu Xiantong's corruption is related to the Supreme Emperor and the Regent. This road cannot be done!"

"After all the time, we still need to check these three Taoist treasures!"

"The Lord of the Lord has deployed two groups of people to investigate this case. You are the third group. Do you know why the Lord of the Lord chose you?"

"Can I understand ghosts and gods?"

"That's right!"

"Mr. Gao, since this case has nothing to do with promotion, what's the benefit if I succeed?"

Li Xiu has always been unable to get up early without any profit, and he will not do anything without benefits.

Gao Lishi regretted that he would not be able to make a strong decision. "Can you not take your vision longer? If your father thinks you are very capable, he will give you more important things."

"I will talk about what happens in the future. I only care about what is the benefit?"

Gao Lishi was so angry that he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Whoever found evidence to overthrow Niu Xiantong will reward him with 30,000 guan from the seized stolen silver. This is the original words given to the other two groups, and it is also effective for you!"

Li Xiu's eyes were all smiling, "That's right! Money can make ghosts push the mills, but if I don't have money, why should I borrow from ghosts and gods?"

...........

Gao Lishi left, Li Xiu collected five hundred taels of silver, clenched his fists with both hands, and he immediately felt the existence of space, with a balance of 2,600 guan.

The pickled jars are about to be filled with gold and silver, and the grids of drawers on both sides are densely packed with drawers. It is estimated that their function will be discovered after upgrading.

But when will it be upgraded? Three thousand guan or five thousand guan?

Li Xiu is afraid of upgrading now, but she is also looking forward to upgrading.

...........

Li Xiu paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking about strategies for investigating the case. It was completely nonsense to understand ghosts and gods. Investigating the case depends on strength. He found that his strength was too weak.

Two unreliable followers and a little maid who knows a little martial arts skills have to recruit soldiers!

Li Xiu took out the paper and pen and reorganized his ideas on the paper.

Find the excuse to search Niu Xiantong's house---find evidence that Niu Xiantong privately hid Taoist treasures-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Li Xiu shook his head. This is enough to defeat the Niu Xiantong? It is not reliable at all. I don’t know who gave his father a bad idea?

Whether it is unreliable or not, Li Xiu had to bite the bullet and participate in the investigation for the sake of 30,000 guan.
Chapter completed!
