Three days later.

Spring breeze full moon building.

"The prince of Goryeo, General Park, and the seventh prince, three people died in a row. The case has no clue yet. Now the Eight Virtues are here. If the case cannot be solved, the Song Dynasty and Goryeo may have to meet each other." Chen Liang sighed.

"If you want to tell me, you have to start with the assassin who assassinated the prince. As long as you catch these assassins, the case will be solved." Gongsun Ce stripped a peanut and threw it into his mouth, and said confidently.

"Bao Zheng, what do you think?" Chen Liang asked Bao Zheng, who had been dazed.

Bao Zheng came back to his senses, "I always feel that these three people died a bit strange. It doesn't seem to be done by one person, but it seems to be dying from the hands of three people."

Isn't it just three people?

The prince was killed by Chen Liang.

General Park was killed by the Seventh Prince.

I killed the Seventh Prince.

Li Yang sat next to Bao Zheng, holding a cup of hot tea, and sipped it from time to time.

"Brother Li, how many inches are your shoes long?" Bao Zheng asked suddenly.

"Eight inches." Li Yang replied.

"What kind of weapons are good at using?" Bao Zheng asked again.

Li Yang looked at Bao Zheng and replied seriously: "Sword."

Bao Zheng was stunned. He thought Li Yang would avoid this issue or lie and say a knife. After all, General Park and the Seventh Prince both died of swords.

"Brother Bao, what do you mean?" Xiao Ai shouted indignantly.

"Okay, Xiao Ai, Bao Zheng used each of our shoes to compare the footprints at the scene of the murder this morning. Your elder brother Li is just asked a few questions now, which is enough to give face." Chen Liang said helplessly.

"Just ask casually." Bao Zheng said a little.

Li Yang didn't care at all and even spoke for Bao Zheng, "It's just a normal investigation, Xiao Ai, don't take it to heart."

"Oh." Xiao Ai was still a little angry, but he still lowered his head obediently.

"Dongdong"

The sound of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded at the entrance of the stairs. The two tall and serious men rushed to the second floor, glanced at the second floor, and finally headed straight for Bao Zheng's table.

Their target is Li Yang.

"May I ask, Mr. Li?" the two asked in unison.

"Who are you?" Li Yang glanced at them and asked back.

"Who are we? You will know when you come with us." The tone of the two of them spoke, their standing posture, and if they were paired with a knife and a wardrobe, they were even more like an wardrobe than the knife head.

Li Yang couldn't help but look at Chen Liang.

Chen Liang shook his head silently, saying that he didn't know these two people.

Gongsun Ce met him and lowered his head and said, "Don't resist, it's the Eighth Prince. I saw him yesterday when I greeted the Eighth Prince with my father."

The two did not blame Gongsun Ce for telling their identity, but their eyes remained on Li Yang. They opened their bodies and said in unison to Li Yang: "Please."

"Brother Li." Xiao Ai grabbed Li Yang worriedly.

"It's okay." Li Yang patted Xiao Ai's hand, stood up, and followed the two of them.

Walk out of the restaurant.

A blue sedan chair and four sedan chair owners have already prepared it at the entrance of the restaurant.

"It's rare, I've prepared a sedan chair for me." Li Yang nodded. Before the two of them could invite him to the sedan chair, he had already sat in first.

This kid is really not polite!

The two of them stared blankly.

"Can't you get back the sedan chair?" Li Yang's urging voice came from the sedan chair.

The two of them came to their senses only then.

"Get up the sedan chair."

The four sedan chairmen lifted the sedan chair and walked past the street with a swagger. They arrived at the gate of the mansion, but did not stop, but carried it straight into the mansion.

I walked through the front door, front yard, living room, etc. and arrived at the depths of the mansion.

"Set down."

Hearing the sound outside, Li Yang took the initiative to lift the curtain of the sedan chair and found that he was now in a hall, sitting in front of him with a handsome man wearing a bead crown.

Obviously, this is the Eight Wise Kings.

Li Yang walked out of the sedan chair, and before he could salute, dozens of soldiers suddenly surged out of the surrounding area, and dozens of bright knives surrounded him.

"What does the Eighth Prince mean?" Li Yang's eyes crossed the numerous soldiers and looked at the Eight Wise Kings at the back.

The Eight Virtue King had a confident smile on his face and a hint of surprise, "I didn't expect you to really dare to come. Should I say that you are skilled and brave, or are you proud?"

"The grass people don't understand." Li Yang really doesn't understand.

"Okay, I will let you die clearly." The Eight Virtuous King waved.

A personal guard walked out beside him, holding a white scroll in his hand, walked to Li Yang. The white scroll opened it and it turned out to be a wanted portrait.

The person in the portrait is Li Yang.

The Eight Wise King said: "Six years ago, several cases were committed in the capital, which left the entire capital helpless. It is said that the thief who had escaped from the Song Dynasty and fled to Goryeo. Who would have thought that he would live in Luzhou City so swagger?"

Li Yang touched his nose--It turns out that I am not only an assassin, but also a thief.

"If the Goryeo delegation had not been killed and I came to investigate the case personally, I would never have thought that you, the thief, would have been in Luzhou City."

The Eight Virtue King looked at Li Yang's eyes as if he was looking at a madman, "Are you really stupid? Or are you brave? Do you really think that the officials of the Song Dynasty are blind? Or naively, if you come back after six years, no one will recognize you?"

You have to ask the system for nothing.

Li Yang's mind has always been moving quickly, and even used this to summarize the past background of his body.

He first committed a crime in the capital, then escaped from Song territory, entered Goryeo, defected to the seventh prince, and became an assassin.

"I am not interested in your crazy actions, I just want to ask you one thing." The Eight Virtue King said.

"May I ask." Li Yang said.

The guards of the Eight Sage Dynasty nodded.

The guard took out something.

Passing certificate.

Another pass certificate!

Looking at the familiar pass certificate, Li Yang couldn't help but sigh.

The guards opened the pass certificate and turned the content toward Li Yang. The Eight Wise Kings pointed to the content above, "This includes the capital and Luzhou. There are nine seals in total. I have checked it, and it is all true."

Li Yang nodded, "Since it's true, what else is there?"

“It’s a big problem.”

The Eight Wise Kings voice increased, "This means that wherever you pass along the way, all local governments have accepted and released them. Logically speaking, this is not wrong.

Since the capital is released, if there is no accident, as long as you arrive at the local area and hand over the pass certificate to the local government, the officials responsible for the acceptance will release it. In fact, this is impossible.

This is the officialdom!

It takes the most time to deal with officials. Some local officials will deliberately make things difficult, exploit them, and procrastinate... Ordinary people, even those with some strength and background, are still difficult to deal with. You, a thief, have all the information on the pass certificate, except for the name of the person, and can actually get the approval of the capital. After that, within three days, you have won the stamps of nine places.

What methods have you used to allow so many officials to let you go so quickly?

Coercion, temptation, or those officials who have been bribed by you and are willing to fall into depravity? Come on the real trick."

What to recruit?

I don’t know, how to ask?--Li Yang certainly won’t say that.

He said, "Actually... all of them depend on who it is. I will tempt the greedy officials, and I will tempt the timid ones."

"Isn't anyone resisting?" said the Eight Virtuous King angrily.

This anger was not against Li Yang, but against the officials of the Song Dynasty.

Li Yang has already put himself in the dual identities of assassin and thief and said, "Of course no one resists? Didn't you just say that my pass-through certificate has been released in the capital. If there is no accident, the places along the way will also be released. Therefore, the upright officials will naturally not make things difficult for me. Those who make things difficult for me are greedy officials. Isn't it enough to deal with these corrupt officials?"

"Who are the officials who accept bribes?" asked the Eight Virtue Kings.

"That's... but there are so many words that I can't explain it clearly in one sentence." In fact, Li Yang couldn't even tell the name of a person. If he really wanted to say it, he could only talk about Gongsun Zhen.

"Take it down and hand it over to the prefect of Kaifeng after returning to Beijing." The Eight Virtuous Kings waved their hands a little disappointed, as if they had lost confidence in the officials of the Song Dynasty.

"Walk."

A guard led the way, two soldiers were holding swords around Li Yang's neck, and two soldiers who were specifically responsible for escorting, holding the swords in their hands, guarding against Li Yang.

For the sake of these four knives, Li Yang did not resist.
