Li Xia stood by the Fu River for a long time when he saw Jiang Fan running over from a distance.

"County Lieutenant, we've caught him... Why didn't the County Lieutenant bring someone with him? It would be bad if he met an assassin."

"It's okay." Li Xia said, "Let's go."

"Yes. By the way, Mr. Xiling won't let the villain interrogate. He said that he and the county lieutenant will come to interrogate the case when the county lieutenant arrives."

"knew."

Jiang Fan still couldn't help but said: "The county lieutenant really shouldn't have come out alone. It's really dangerous with no one around."

"Do you smell anything on me?" Li Xia asked.

Jiang Fan scratched his head and said, "No, the county lieutenant is not as clean as us roughnecks."

"No?" Li Xia murmured.

Jiang Fan looked around and felt something was strange.

He felt that since the Miao Wu incident, the county captain sometimes seemed to be possessed by evil spirits.

The two walked north along the path for a while, and when they came to a forest, they saw four people who were tied up and thrown to the ground. Li Xiling and others and Jiang Fan's men were standing aside.

Li Xia hesitated for a while, then stepped forward and said: "Jiang Fan, take your people and retreat..."

Jiang Fan led the people back to the side of the road. He couldn't help but look around again, staring at the woods on the side of the road.

"Team leader, what's wrong?"

"I always feel like someone is following me." Jiang Fan murmured, "I'm possessed by an evil spirit. I think I'm also possessed by an evil spirit..."

Li Xiling stretched out his hand and took off the cloth stuffed in Gong Ze's mouth.

"Tell me why you are chasing me."

"The villain really just wants to hunt on the mountain." Gong Ze said: "During the day, the villain set two traps on the mountain. I can't sleep tonight. I want to go up the mountain to see if there is any harvest..."

"Only with the dagger?"

"Yes, the villain only has a dagger." Xi Ze refused to acknowledge whether he was dead or alive.

Li Xiling was not in a hurry to interrogate. He took two steps back and stood in front of Du and Li Zhaocheng. He looked at Li Xia and said, "County Lieutenant, these four people were sent by my enemies to hunt me down."

"Let's try them separately."

Li Xia stepped forward, took off the cloths gagged in the mouths of the other three people, stared into their eyes carefully for a while, then picked up the most fearful person among them and dragged him into the woods.

He threw the person to the ground and asked: "What is your name?"

"The villain Fang Zhong, the villain didn't do anything, he just peed at the entrance of the village."

Li Xia said: "According to my new rules, you will be fined two dollars for peeing anywhere. Do you understand?"

"The villain knows his fault. The villain knows his fault and is willing to be punished."

"admit?"

Fang Zhong was stunned and said: "Young man has confessed to peeing on the ground. I really don't know anything else."

"Your companions outside the woods don't believe you. They will think you have already confessed and rush to confess before you do."

Fang Zhong thought for a while and realized that there was no need to hide anything anymore, so he responded: "Okay, I will tell you the truth. There is really no malicious intent here. I just want to find your father to ask a few questions and ask the county captain not to kill the villain.

"

Li Xia turned his head and looked at Li Xiling outside the woods, silent.

Fang Zhong didn't dare to speak either.

After a while, Li Xia asked: "Who sent you here?"

"The villain is a member of the army. The commander sends the villain here."

"what is it call?"

"Fan Wenhu."

Li Xia asked again: "Whose person is he?"

Fang Zhong didn't dare to answer, so he whispered: "The commander-in-chief... is the son-in-law of Taiwei Lu."

"Which Lieutenant Lu?" Li Xia asked again.

In the Song Dynasty, people liked to use official titles. Most of them were civil servants who were called "Xiangong" before they became prime ministers, and military generals who were not in the second rank were called "Taiwei".

The market is full of "officials", and the court is full of "Xiangong Taiwei". They are both true and false. Li Xia is already tired of the impact of redundant officials.

Fang Zhong said: "The villain's commander is... Lu Wende, the son-in-law of Lieutenant Lu."

"Then it was Jia Sidao who sent you here?"

"Li County Lieutenant, I am one of our own. I just want to ask your father a few words."

Li Xia asked again: "Who are the other companions?"

"No... there is one named 'Yang Ben', who is mixed up with the county lieutenant army. We sent him back to deliver the news... the county lieutenant, the villain is one of our own. I really never thought of harming the county lieutenant..."

With a "pop" sound, Li Xia pierced Fang Zhong's neck with his sword.

Xi Ze squinted his eyes and saw Li Xia walking out of the woods with a bloody sword, feeling panicked in his heart.

He was thinking about whether Fang Zhong had made a move or not, when he heard a "pop" sound, and Li Xia stabbed another person to death.

"This... Captain Li, listen to me, I will recruit..."

"Pfft." Li Xia refused to listen and stabbed another person to death.

Only Xi Ze is left.

He didn't expect Li Xia to be so vicious and said: "Li County Lieutenant, we are our own people. I am under the orders of Prime Minister Jia. I just need to ask your Majesty... uh..."

A sword pierced Gong Ze's throat.

The remaining words in his mouth could not come out, and he slowly fell to the ground.

Li Xia pulled out his sword and wiped it with Gong Ze's lapel.

"Okay. Mr. Li, the man sent by your enemy is dead. Can you rest assured?"

After hearing what Li Xia said, Hao Xiuyang and Li Zhaocheng looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

…

Li Xiling pondered for a while and asked: "Is the trial clear?"

Li Xia said: "I won't kill people indiscriminately without a clear trial."

"Then I guess I can't hide my identity." Li Xiling said.

He planned to ask the matter clearly.

Hao Xiuyang squinted his eyes and looked towards the side of the road. He saw Jiang Fan's people still more than fifty steps away. He secretly wanted to ask the matter clearly. This was indeed the best opportunity and the best opportunity in a short period of time.

Li Xiling looked at Li Xia and said, "My real name is Li Yong. I am you...it's hard to say who you are, but it seems you already knew it?"

Li Xia was also looking at Li Yong and did not answer immediately.

Li Yong finally sighed and said: "If you are worried about leaking my whereabouts, these people are dead now. If you have other difficulties, you can tell me directly."

"It's not that I knew it a long time ago. I just had some suspicions before and it was confirmed tonight."

"So, you really didn't recognize me?"

…

Regarding this matter, Li Yong was also a little confused.

He only had one son, who he raised with one hand.

How could he not tell whether the person in front of him was his son?

After more than twenty days of observation, he was sure many times that the "Li Xia" in front of him was definitely not his son.

He has also been thinking that if the matter is found out, no matter what reasons the other party gives, he will never be deceived or deceived.

What he wants is a real son, not someone who looks the same.

You are not a fool, how can you let others fool you easily?

However, looking at the face of his "son" in front of him, he also hoped in his heart that he could give a reason.

…

"It's okay to be honest." Li Xia said, "Just tell me, I'm not your son."

Li Yong was stunned.

Not only Li Yong, but also Liu Susu, who lied about being "Du Shi" behind him, as well as Li Zhaocheng and Hao Xiuyang were all stunned on the spot.

They had imagined that Li Xia had been replaced by someone else after their separation. It might have been someone sent by Zhao Yurui, it might have been someone sent by other high-ranking officials, or it might even be someone from the north, so they couldn't admit it.

Out of Li Yong.

But they never thought that after Li Yong reported his name, Li Xia would directly admit that he was fake.
