Chapter 21 Oriole in the back 1
On the carriage back, Li Xuan was in a very good mood.
Sure enough, if you are nourished by love, you will be proud of the spring breeze.
"How was the investigation regarding the Minister of Punishment?" Zhang Xueyan suddenly asked.
Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then said with deep meaning, "There will be results soon."
…………
On the birthday of the son of the Minister of War, a banquet was held in Ruyi Tower, and his good friend Jing Wang Li Ye was naturally there.
After the banquet, everyone was drunk and staggering out of the Ruyi Building.
Prince Jing Li Ye was just about to get on the carriage when a man in black suddenly jumped out of the darkness and was kneeling next to his carriage.
Li Ye was startled. When the guard drew his sword and was about to arrest him, he recognized the person he was kneeling on.
"Han Xu?"
"It's me." The man in black knelt on the ground, his expression a little scared.
"Why are you here? Didn't you go back to Yanzhou?"
"Please help me!" He suddenly grabbed the hem of Li Ye's clothes, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, and would not let go until he died.
"What's going on?" Li Ye felt strange.
"Someone wants to kill me."
"Kill you?" Li Ye was shocked and confused, "Who wants to kill you?"
"Xu Xian."
"Xu Xian?" Li Ye was stunned on the spot, unable to turn his head for a while.
"He...why did he want to kill you?"
"No..." He pressed his head and finally got some clues, "What did you commit?"
"He is just an editor at the Hanlin Academy. What right does he have to kill you?" He looked at the man in black, his thoughts gradually became clearer, and he gradually sensed something was wrong.
He looked on both sides of the street and saw no one. "You get in the carriage first and we can talk to you when you return home."
"That's too late."
"What do you mean?" Li Ye was a little angry, "You stopped my carriage and horses at night and said some specious things. Tell me, who ordered you and what do you want?"
"Your Highness, it has been exposed that you ordered me to kill the Minister of Punishment." The man in black suddenly said.
"When did I instruct you to kill the Minister of Punishment?" Li Ye was angry and looked around hurriedly.
Conspiracies are all conspiracies.
He quickly signaled for the guards to take the man in black away.
Unexpectedly, the man in black was extremely powerful. He shouted, "Your Highness, Xu Xian has collected evidence that you murdered the Minister of Punishment and is searching for me all over the city. You must save me and cannot burn bridges by crossing the river."
"Stop his mouth for me." Li Ye ordered.
"What does His Highness Prince Jing want to do? Kill someone and silence them?"
Suddenly, a group of people came out from the corner.
The leader was Xu Xian, whom they had just had dinner with a few days ago.
"Xu Xian, what exactly do you want to do?"
"This official is just following His Majesty's orders to arrest the person who killed the Minister of Punishment."
"Well, then I won't disturb you and say goodbye first." After saying this, King Jing was about to take the man in black away.
"Your Highness."
Xu Xian blocked the way.
"The person I want to arrest is the man in black whom your guards detained."
"Really?" Li Ye looked at him steadily, as if he had the guts to say it again.
Xu Xian was not afraid and had an upright look on his face, "This person's name is Han Xu. He is from Yanzhou. He is a Jianghu man with no legitimate profession. He came to Shangjing a year ago. Later, he was appreciated by you and stayed in the palace."
"His martial arts skills are excellent, and he has done a lot for you secretly."
"According to my investigation, the murder of the Jinzhou magistrate six months ago, the Quanzhou land sale case, the escort of disaster relief money but being intercepted halfway, etc., were all his fault, right?"
"Oh, by the way, the current Minister of Punishment was killed, probably because of your orders..."
"What are you talking about?" Li Ye naturally refused.
"Xiaguan is not talking nonsense, he has done it himself." He pointed at the man in black, "When it was just dark, I took advantage of my unpreparedness, injured the officers and soldiers and fled. I pursued them all the way here, and happened to hear your conversation.
."
"Now that there are witnesses and physical evidence, Your Highness still wants to deny it?"
