The leader, who could not move from the neck down, shouted with his eyes closed, "Our Japanese warriors will avenge me!"
After roaring angrily, the leader crushed the poison in his mouth and went straight to a state where his face turned black.
Li Yunze stood up, and all parties involved in cleaning up the scene quickly gathered around him.
"This matter is not simple." Li Yunze waved his hand to Wu Meiniang, who opened the window and looked at him with concern, and motioned to everyone to "take her back for a good checkup."
The group of people hurriedly arrived at Lijiazhuang. Sentinels armed with crossbows stood in the high-walled compound. As soon as the heavy door was closed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Yunze, who was holding Wu Meiniang's little hand, said, "I'm going to prepare a late-night snack for everyone. We'll rest here tonight. If there's anything we need to do, we'll explain it to you tomorrow morning."
The courtyard of Lijiazhuang is very large, well designed and there are many rooms everywhere, so there is no pressure to arrange for more than 100 people.
As for midnight snacks, I prefer them. After all, everyone in the Tang Dynasty knows that the most indispensable thing in Lijiazhuang is meat.
In the era when there was only one integrated breeding farm like Lijiazhuang in the entire Tang Dynasty, eating meat happily could only be done here.
The people of Baiqisi are not in a hurry to work, they are working hard to find clues.
When Li Yunze came out the next morning, the captain of Baiqisi came over and reported, "Sir, these assassins must be from Goguryeo."
Li Yunze nodded and listened to his detailed explanation.
"Although the weapons used are all Japanese weapons, they are obviously disturbing the audience. The Japanese are short, but these people are tall."
The captain described the test results and basically concluded that he was from Goguryeo, and he deliberately pretended to be a Japanese to try to shirk the blame.
"Why are you targeting me?" Li Yunze was slightly confused. "I'm just an ordinary county magistrate. There are so many princes inside and outside Chang'an City."
The captain wanted to roll his eyes when he said this.
'Which prince can compare with you? The treasures and technologies you brought out will be coveted by all the surrounding countries.'
"I also found several carriages with the same appearance in the woods, and also found drugged hemp ropes and other items. I thought they wanted to capture the prince alive and send him away quickly."
'whispering sound.'
Li Yunze didn't care about this and wanted to kidnap him unless he used a honey trap.
"What's going on in the city? Is there any news?"
Before leaving the city last night, the fire in the direction of the palace was still fresh in my memory. Although I believe Li Er can handle it, he still needs to understand the matter.
The captain responded hurriedly, "After the city gate is opened, an envoy will come. Your Majesty summons the lord to enter the palace."
After a pause, he lowered his voice and said, "Last night a lot of barbarians made a riot in the city. I heard they were killed in rivers of blood."
"Um."
Li Yunze nodded with a smile on his face, "Eat first, and then leave after eating."
After breakfast, Li Yunze, escorted by a group of palace guards and Baiqisi, went straight to Chang'an City.
On the way, he also asked Bai Qisi, 'How did those Goguryeo people accurately ambush him?'
"Your Majesty doesn't come out of the house every day, so they can only watch. Last night, His Majesty flew out alone, and their spies at the village quickly informed them to mobilize manpower to make preparations. But the city gate was closed and they couldn't get in.
.Just when they were about to separate, the prince came out again
. I followed him all the way to the uninhabited land and prepared to take action."
Baiqisi also sent people to follow Li Yunze. He discovered these Goguryeo people on the way and hurriedly arranged people to call for reinforcements. Then a melee broke out at night.
Li Yunze nodded again, without saying anything more, he rode directly into the city and headed straight for the palace.
As we walked all the way to the palace, we could clearly see the burned-out city walls that were pitch black and even cracked.
As for the palace gate, it was completely burned down.
"After the second wife of the village left, a large number of thieves drove to the gate of the palace and lit fire starters." Li Yunze, Chang Hewei with red eyes, described what happened last night. "They used kerosene and other materials bought from Lijiazhuang.
Object."
Li Yunze was very happy when he said this, "Don't blame me. Also, where did they get the accelerant? It's not that easy to light if you don't have any."
Kerosene lamps have igniting cotton threads, so they can be lit and illuminated.
However, it is not so easy to ignite a large barrel of kerosene if it is directly put on fire. A combustion accelerant must be used.
Such a high-end thing as a combustion accelerant was originally not available in Datang.
But Li Yunze brought technology and equipment, and he clearly produced strong combustion accelerants such as nitrates and potassium permanganate.
Originally this thing was used on briquettes. Without this thing, briquettes would be difficult to ignite and use. This trick cost a lot of nobles back then.
I never thought that a group of barbarians would use it to burn down the palace yesterday.
Regarding this matter, Li Yunze slightly praised, "There are smart people among these Zihu people."
This is not only smart, but also requires corresponding information sources. At least you can know that there is a strong combustion accelerant in the briquettes, so that you can connect the kerosene and the strong combustion accelerant.
Chang He, with red eyes, wanted to take down Li Yunze.
You must know that the fire last night not only burned down the city gate, but also disturbed many nobles in the palace.
As for being in a hurry, being buried in a sea of fire, and being imprisoned under a sneak attack by barbarians, there are more.
No matter how you look at it, he, the commander in charge of palace confinement, is definitely going to be in bad luck.
At this time, Chang He was like a drowning person falling into the water, trying to pull him down by everyone he saw.
Whether there is no combustion accelerant or something else, it all flows out from Lijiazhuang. This matter must have something to do with Li Yunze!
Shaking his head, Li Yunze stepped into the palace without further arguing with Chang He.
In the square in front of the palace, many maids and maids carrying buckets and mops were cleaning up the stains and blood on the ground.
Judging from the scale and scope of distribution, a lot of people rushed in.
After clicking his tongue twice, Li Yunze continued to move forward and finally entered the palace where Li Er was under the gaze of many palace guards.
Anyone else would have definitely been stopped and searched.
But Li Er had given an order before, so there was no need to stop Li Yunze when he came, let alone search him.
Li Er knew very clearly that if Li Yunze really wanted to harm him, there would be no need to go to such trouble.
There were many people in the palace, and basically all the important ministers in Chang'an City were here.
Seeing Li Yunze coming in, many people had strange expressions on their faces.
If the kerosene in Lijiazhuang hadn't caused the fire, those barbarians wouldn't have been able to get in.
Apart from his ugly face, Li Er was not seriously injured.
It's just that as Tian Khan, he encountered such a thing. One can imagine how brutal the subsequent revenge will be.
"I heard that you met an assassin last night?" Li Er asked Li Yunze to sit down, "Do you have anything to do?"
"Everyone is standing here." Li Yunze, with a smile on his face, spread his hands and walked around, "Okay, great."
Li Er nodded and started to continue his work. "Everyone under the Xishi Order will be sent to jail for investigation. If it is found that they have nothing to do with the Hu people, they will be dismissed from their posts and sent to other places."
Cheng Yaojin, who was next to Li Yunze, lowered his voice and explained to him, "Most of the barbarians last night came from the West Market. The West Market order will definitely be unlucky."
This was understandable, and Li Yunze nodded immediately.
Li Er's side continued, "Honglu Temple arranged for envoys from various countries to watch and interrogate."
Cheng Yaojin continued to explain, "The Baiqisi side has already found out that the Hu people who took action are also Dong. The remnants of the Turks were instigated by Gaochang and Tuyuhun, and the envoys from both sides have been captured."
Li Yunze nodded again, and then asked, "Just the two of them, they don't have that much ability. There must be a big fish behind them."
Then I heard Li Er say again, "Tell the envoys from the Western Turks and Goguryeo to wash their necks and wait for the Tang Dynasty's cavalry!"
"Hehehehe." Cheng Yaojin smiled very obscenely, "That's not all. It is said that there are Japanese and Tubo forces behind the scenes, but Baiqisi didn't catch them."
"Oh~~~"
Hearing this, Li Yunze immediately raised his eyebrows, "Is Datang being besieged from all sides?"
Instead of panicking, Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed, "This is a good thing, we killed them all!"
For generals, nothing is more attractive than going to war.
". Chang He, he was dismissed from his post and retained, and he made meritorious deeds. Jing Zhaoyin failed to investigate all the matters and failed to put out the fire."
Li Er made many arrangements in one breath, the most eye-catching of which was that many people in the court with five surnames and seven looks were demoted and punished.
Li Yunze suddenly realized that there were indeed insiders secretly promoting this matter.
Otherwise, how could a group of barbarians want to cause such a big disturbance in Chang'an City?
Taking another look at the important ministers in the hall, they were either from poor families, relatives of the royal family, or old people from Tiance Mansion. None of the five surnames and Qi Wang appeared here.
After finishing many arrangements, Li Er picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp.
"The small country of Zu'er dares to offend the power of the Tang Dynasty. I will not tolerate this. Just wait, I will deal with them one by one."
The civil and military nobles shouted in unison and cheered for the emperor.
Li Er, who narrowed his eyes, finally looked at Li Yunze, "What do you think of what happened yesterday?"
Li Yunze thought for a while and said, "The extraordinary improvement of the Tang Dynasty's national power has caused panic in the surrounding countries. They know that they cannot win on the battlefield, so they want to use substandard means to interrupt the development of the Tang Dynasty. Be prepared for this kind of thing
That’s it, don’t worry too much.”
After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, and they thought so too.
Because of the materials and technology provided by Li Yunze, Datang's national power took off.
In particular, the opening of the train line was like a thunder from the sky, shaking the surrounding countries.
If such a terrible Tang Dynasty continues to develop at such a rapid pace, all countries should stop doing anything and simply surrender.
If you are not willing to surrender, then you can only do anything if you take risks.
Li Yunze changed the topic, "All the aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty are also unwilling to increase the national power of the Tang Dynasty, because these benefits do not fall into their hands. These people are moths, a scourge, and a stumbling block that hinders the development of the Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty, this
The problem needs to be solved.
"
Of course Li Er also wanted to kill the family members, but he witnessed with his own eyes the consequences of his cousin Yang Guang's violent methods to eradicate the family members.
There was silence in the hall, and everyone looked very strange.
After Yang Guang, Li Yunze was the first person who dared to declare in public that he wanted to be a member of an aristocratic family.
After a moment of silence, Li Er asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"
"The simplest and most effective method is, of course, physical removal."
The words spoken by Li Yunze were as biting as the cold wind in the twelfth lunar month of winter: "The swallows' nests at home were demolished, the kennels were burned, the mouse holes were flooded, the hornets' nests were dug, the ant holes were buried, all the flowers, plants and trees were cut down, and the houses and buildings were all cut down.
They pushed them all away, smashed all the plaques, pinched the crowing roosters, and shook the egg yolks away! Every one is counted, and no one is left alive!"
