Yan Yuejun squinted his eyes and thought for a long time, and finally looked at Li Qi and said: "The prince said in the secret decree that he asked me to assist you in investigating the case. I wonder what the case is?"
Li Qi smiled and said, "Before talking about the case, I still think Deputy Commander Yan needs to answer my question first."
Yan Yuejun originally wanted to change the topic, but who knew that Li Qi would not let go, and he also hesitated.
Li Qi is still a bit different in Yan Yuejun's heart.
The first time I met him was in Jincheng. At that time, he was just a small boss of a brothel, and he was not involved with the people in Feiyan Village.
But later on, this guy somehow became Prince Jiang's man and came to Kyoto to serve as an official. In just over a year, he not only became a popular figure around the prince, but also made outstanding achievements many times.
Now in the court, many people know him as a fifth-grade official.
Even some second-grade officials were polite to him.
Many people think that Li Qi is lucky, but Yan Yuejun feels that this person seems to speak strangely, but has abilities that are different from ordinary people.
As for what he just said, if he hadn't said it, he wouldn't have thought so much.
He was right. After the third prince returns to Beijing, there will definitely be a turmoil.
Although the emperor has appointed a prince, it is still uncertain who will take the throne until the last critical moment.
Bad people will have their position sooner or later, but how to stand is worth thinking about.
Originally, these things should not be something I have to think about, but now the bad handsome man is about to retire and return to his hometown, and if there is no order from above, he may not necessarily sit in that position...
Thinking of this, Yan Yuejun looked at Li Qi and said: "Master Li, since you want me to answer this question, I might as well say it directly. Now I am just a deputy commander, and it is not my turn to make the decision on some things..."
Hearing this, Li Qi understood, smiled slightly and said: "Deputy Commander Yan, as long as you are willing to help me properly handle this case this time, the position of bad commander in the future belongs to you."
Hearing this, Yan Yuejun gritted his teeth, knelt on one knee and said: "From now on, Yan Yuejun will obey Mr. Li's orders!"
Hearing Yan Yuejun's words, Li Qi felt relieved.
Lanyuan's case involves too many areas, and if it is not a trustworthy person, when the time comes to investigate, if the news leaks out, it will be you who will suffer.
If Yan Yuejun is not subdued, who knows what trouble will happen in the future.
With his carrot-and-stick approach, he was able to bluff him, but if he wanted to completely use him to his advantage, he still had to look at Lan Yuan's case.
Once he helps him investigate this case, it means that he is completely on his side. Even if he wants to take refuge with the third prince in the future, the other party will still have a grudge against him.
After Li Qi helped Yan Yuejun up, he smiled and said: "We are all our own people from now on, so Deputy Commander Yan doesn't need to be polite."
Yan Yuejun smiled and said, "That's what Mr. Li said."
After saying that, he added some tea to Li Qi and asked again: "Master Li, what is the case that the prince asked me to assist you in investigating this time?"
"I wonder if Deputy Commander Yan has heard of Lanyuan?" Li Qi asked.
As a bad person, his sources of information are naturally more knowledgeable than ordinary people. He has naturally heard of Lanyuan. Not only has he heard of it, he also knows more about it than Li Qi.
"Lanyuan?" Yan Yuejun pursed his lips, thought for a moment and asked, "Master Li, is this case authorized by the prince to investigate for you?"
"nature."
"How did the prince know about Lanyuan?" Yan Yuejun asked.
Li Qi smiled and said, "What do you think?"
"Is it Concubine Dou?" Yan Yuejun quickly guessed the person behind the scenes.
"Deputy Commander Yan is indeed smart."
Yan Yuejun frowned slightly: "But how did Concubine Dou know about Lanyuan?"
Hearing this question, Li Qi was also stunned for a moment.
Yes, how did Concubine Dou know about Lanyuan?
"Maybe someone else told her," Li Qi said.
Yan Yuejun then asked: "Who could have told her?"
Li Qi thought this guy was a gangster and kept asking him endlessly.
"What's wrong? Deputy Commander Yan, who told Concubine Dou that there was something wrong?" Li Qi asked.
Yan Yuejun said: "Master Li doesn't know something. Concubine Dou is in the palace all the year round. As far as I know, her information channel is very single. In Kyoto, I know who has sent spies in the city. As far as I know, Dou
The imperial concubine has no spies operating in the city..."
Hearing this, Li Qi frowned and said, "You mean, the person who told Concubine Dou about Lanyuan had an ulterior motive?"
Yan Yuejun nodded: "Yes. Although Lanyuan has existed for a long time, not many people really know about it. Except for some ministers in the court, Lanyuan can be said to be a very secretive existence, even for some big shots in Kyoto
I didn’t know it either.”
Li Qi was a little confused. If Yan Yuejun said so, wouldn't it be difficult to go to Lanyuan by himself? But why was it so easy to get in?
And it was so easy to discover Yizhuang and learn that the princess was the mastermind behind it?
Thinking about it, Li Qi felt that everything seemed to be going too smoothly, right?
"Deputy Commander Yan, how do you know about Lanyuan?" Li Qi asked.
Yan Yuejun smiled and said: "We bad guys do the dirtiest work, so it's not surprising to know Lanyuan. In the early years, when Lanyuan was first established, I helped Lanyuan handle some affairs..."
"What's the matter?" Li Qi asked.
Yan Yuejun smiled and said: "It's not convenient for me to say anything. Mr. Li, I believe you won't be interested either. Mr. Li, there is no need to be suspicious. It's not that I want to hide this matter, but if I say it, it will only cause trouble."
Whet your appetite."
This made Li Qi suddenly think of the corpses in Yizhuang. Wasn't this Yan Yuejun the person responsible for disposing of those corpses before?
"Does Deputy Commander Yan know the owner behind Lanyuan?" Li Qi asked.
Yan Yuejun stared at Li Qi for a moment and said, "What has Mr. Li found out?"
Li Qi did not hide it, and said: "Yes, as far as the information I have now, the owner behind Lanyuan is the princess. And Concubine Dou instructed the prince to investigate the matter, that is, to deal with the princess, and the reason for dealing with
Princess, Deputy Commander Yan must have guessed the reason, right?"
"Third Prince." Yan Yuejun said.
"Yes, that's the third prince."
Yan Yuejun smiled and said: "It seems that the third prince has not returned to Beijing, and Concubine Dou can't sit still, but it's no wonder. If it weren't for him, the third prince would not have been sent to the border."
Li Qi became a little curious: "What was it about the suitability that led the emperor to let the third prince go to the border?"
Yan Yuejun looked at Li Qi thoughtfully and said, "The prince didn't tell Mr. Li about this matter?"
Li Qi shook his head.
Yan Yuejun smiled: "No wonder, after all, he himself doesn't know the inside story about this matter..."
