Chapter 465: Information Exchange Mode (2)

After working hard until late at night, Liu Yu was a little tired, but fortunately he still obtained some information from the investigation.

Some people from Huaibei have been involved in Chang'an City since the New Year. They brought a large number of gunpowder to make firecrackers and fireworks, which seemed to be prepared for the New Year and the Spring Festival, but Liu Yu knew that gunpowder could not be obtained in ordinary channels now.

In the past two years, the imperial court's demand for gunpowder has become increasingly large. Gunpowder has become a "forbidden object" among the people. Even festivals have no previous fireworks performances, which has reduced the festival a lot of colors. These people in Huaibei can transport a large number of gunpowder at one time, which must be related to the chaos. Liu Yu started to send someone to investigate and issued a martial law order again that night.

The martial law in Chang'an City has only been restored for less than a day. The curfew on the night of the 14th day of the first lunar month and the martial law on the second day will definitely disappoint those who are preparing to attend the Lantern Festival for a lively Spring Festival. Liu Yu cannot take into account the feelings of ordinary people. The stability of Chang'an City is the top priority, and he cannot allow terrorist attacks to occur.

When he returned to the palace, it was already midnight before Qi'er and the Han sisters had already gone to bed. Qi'er reunited with her mother today and excitedly pulled her mother to sleep together, and intimately forgot Liu Yu. Liu Yu was in the inner court, and Xu Xuanzhu had not fallen asleep yet, but was holding a pen and drawing on a city defense map.

"Why did you come back late? But something happened in the city?"

When Xu Xuanzhu saw Liu Yu coming back, he stood up to greet him. Liu Yu looked at the things Xu Xuanzhu painted on the table and realized that the female army was at the garrison site outside the city at that time. Because the daughter army was going to expand, the original garrison site would change. Xu Xuanzhu was bored when he was idle and was actually outlining some details of the deployment in the female army camp.

As a female coach, she will always be so responsible that she is like a general in the army and cares about everything.

Liu Yu took off his coat and sat down on the chair. At this time, the palace maid had already brought the hot tea. Liu Yu took over the hot tea ceremony: "Prepare to eat, but I didn't eat at night, so I was so hungry." The palace maid was actually the maid of the former general's mansion. Liu Yu moved his family to the palace and brought them with him. After ordering the palace maid, Liu Yu turned around and said to Xu Xuan, "There is martial law outside again."

Xu Xuanzhu said a little surprised: "What happened?"

Liu Yu told Huai Prime Minister Meng Chuliang tonight about the incident of the rebellion, and said that the purpose of the rebellion was probably to target the Shangyuan Lantern Festival the next day. Xu Xuanzhu kept listening. He only heard the last question: "How did your husband get the clue?"

Liu Yu was stunned. This story was originally very "twilight and bizarre", mainly because he hid some of Liu Liniang's content, and it seemed that the news obtained by the Imperial Guard through tracing.

"The news. The martial law was lifted in the city today, and many things were revealed, and then I realized it."

"Then Shangshu Li must have nothing to do with this matter, right?"

Liu Yu glanced at Xu Xuanzhu, and Xu Xuanzhu's face was a little unnatural at this time. Liu Yu immediately thought that Xu Xuanzhu might have heard some rumors and knew that he had given Li Zhe'er "hiding the sweetheart in the golden house". No matter how generous Xu Xuanzhu was, his husband would not feel very comfortable raising a house outside. After all, Liu Yu never mentioned Li Zhe'er to her.

"No matter whether it is related or not, you have to investigate it clearly before you know it."

"What's going to do with your husband?"

"At the beginning, I felt that putting martial law in Chang'an City would prevent chaos from happening, but when I thought about it, I was too unprofitable and too passive. Since those rioters were stubborn, it means that they were prepared. It would be better to take advantage of what they wished. The waiting time in Chang'an City will be held as usual tomorrow, so that they can fall into the trap."

Xu Xuanzhu was surprised by Liu Yu's statement. Liu Yu's plan seemed to be taking risks, disregarding the safety of the people in the city. Xu Xuanzhu wanted to remind him, but he swallowed the words and sighed a little and didn't say anything again.

Liu Yu smiled and comforted Xu Xuanzhu, "Don't worry, you have your own sense of your husband."

…………

Early in the morning of the next day, the martial law in Chang'an City was lifted. The morning market in the city was not delayed. Originally, during the Shangyuan Festival, the city would be more vigilant to prevent congestion and stampede. But today the court seemed to be neglecting to guard against the situation, and even Jingzhao Mansion did not come out to maintain public order.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month in Chang'an City is the most lively of the year. During the day, there are several temple fairs. Whether devout Buddhist believers or ordinary people, they will pour out of their homes on this day and go to several large temples in the city to burn incense and worship Buddha. While offering incense, they will join in the fun. The temple fairs are also full of goods, and the consumption of a day may be as high as a month in the ordinary season.

The merchants were extremely enthusiastic on this day.

The martial law in Chang'an City lasted for nearly half a month, and now it is the new emperor's turn to ascend the throne, which can be said to be very festive. This year is another leap month of spring, which seems to indicate that this is a festive year. The temple fair on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month has been very lively from the beginning of the morning, and this excitement will continue until the end of the Lantern Festival that night.

There was nothing wrong in the dynasty on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Liu Yu had just seen the reorganized Shangshu Academy, and after a few words to Han Sheng, he left the palace and went to Jingzhao Prefecture. In Jingzhao Prefecture, a "clean up party group" had been secretly established. Liu Yu served as the group leader, and his members also included Li Mi and Sui Yi. At this time, the public security of Chang'an City was entirely responsible for the Sui and Li. Liu Yu included them inside and outside the group and kept it secret. Liu Yu wanted to transform the court from open to secret, and to destroy the party's actions from secret.

Han Qi and the man who were captured yesterday are still imprisoned. They are tortured and forced to confess until they are half dead. Liu Yu did not force him anymore. From the first move of Han Qi to deal with Li Yannian yesterday, Liu Yu could guess that this group of people is not simple and may have "powers" such as mental paralysis. While the two of them were captured, in order to prevent them from being unable to withstand the punishment and confession, they wiped out some of their memories themselves... Of course, this was Liu Yu's guess, and Liu Yu himself knew that it was a bit unscientific.

With the widespread spread of new religions, Liu Yu had to evaluate the current ideology of people. It is possible that such aliens come to the capital to commit crimes.

"This woman's name is Han Qi, but she is a brothel woman in Cuiyue Building. Although she is nominally selling her skills but not selling herself, there are many guests who are found to be found. The Langguan of the Ministry of Revenue bought her and asked her to seduce Li Shangshu at the banquet in Sima's Mansion... This woman should be from Lingnan. Although her embroidery comes from the capital, she wears a sachet and the herbs inside are unique to Lingnan people." After the investigation, the experienced yamen in Jingzhao Mansion sorted out the news and reported to Liu Yu, "There is also the man who has investigated his identity. He is the eldest grandson of He Jun, the former Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. He is just a playboy brother. Yesterday, he attended the banquet at Sima's Mansion with his father He Bi, but he didn't know where he went during the banquet."

Liu Yu clearly remembered the conversation between He Lin and Han Qi yesterday. Han Qi asked He Lin to hide the letter and not to leak it out. After that, Li Yannian's sudden appearance interrupted their continued conversation.

"Has the staff been arranged in these places?" Liu Yu pointed to the city map of Chang'an City and asked Li Mi on the side.

Li Mi smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, although the soldiers of the City Defense Department are not very responsible, the Yunanmen Defense Department is still useless. Let them disguise themselves and get into these places, and they will definitely be able to control the situation whenever there is any trouble."

Liu Yu nodded slightly, as if he agreed. But in fact, he didn't agree. If the rioters really used gunpowder to create an explosion, physical body alone would not be enough to calm the chaos, unless Li Mi's old subordinates were all Iron Man.
