Seeing Li Yuan angrily walking out of the side hall, the Changsun brothers were stunned there. After a long while, Changsun Wuji finally swallowed his saliva. He turned to Changsun Hengan and said: "Second brother, what should I do? This What if the deaths of Marquis Wan and Young Master Li are really related? Then how should we deal with it?"
"Uh." Changsun Heng'an was stunned. He really hadn't considered this issue. He shook his head subconsciously and said, "Impossible. Mr. Wanhou is very weak. How could he harm others? There must be a misunderstanding."
Although Changsun Heng'an was right, Changsun Wuji still asked: "Second brother, what if this is the case?"
Changsun Heng'an hesitated. He lowered his head and paused for a moment. Then he raised his head again. His face was full of determination. He shouted in a deep voice: "If it is really Lord Wan, then I will give up my I will pay this life to the Li family. I will never let Master Wan be harmed. Third brother, Master Wan is kind to our eldest grandson family. A man is born in this world. Gratitude and resentment should be clear. If you are even a benefactor, you can abandon him. If you don't care, then I will be ashamed to be the son of the eldest grandson."
Changsun Heng'an's answer made Changsun Wuji silent. He lowered his head and thought for a moment. Changsun Wuji also raised his head. But Changsun Wuji's face was full of helplessness. He said: "Second brother, you are right. It's just that. I'm thinking, if that's the case, I'm afraid the hardest thing to do will be for my little sister. She's sandwiched between us and the Li family. I'm afraid her life will be difficult in the future."
"Uh." Changsun Wuji reminded him. Changsun Heng'an also thought of this. A trace of hesitation flashed on his face. But soon Changsun Heng'an returned to his previous determination. He said in a deep voice: "If this is really the case. .That can only be regarded as me, the elder brother, feeling sorry for my little sister. Mr. Wan Hou is not kind to me alone, but to our eldest grandson's family. Even if he has wronged my little sister, it will have to be like this. When the time comes, .I will apologize to my little sister. Third brother, if that time comes, you should not get involved in this matter. In the future, my little sister will have to rely on you to take care of her."
When Changsun Wuji heard this, his expression changed. He immediately said: "Second brother, what are you talking about? Am I the kind of ungrateful person? My uncle has been kind to us in raising us. Since Wan Houye I saved my uncle, so I should repay my kindness. Needless to say, we brothers will advance and retreat together in this matter."
"Okay. This time it's the son of my eldest grandson." Hearing what eldest grandson Wuji said, eldest grandson Heng'an also had a happy smile on his face. He patted eldest grandson Wuji's shoulder hard and said with a smile: "Let's go. Let's go Let's go and see what's going on. Maybe it's all just a misunderstanding." After saying that, the two brothers held hands and walked out of the side hall directly, following Li Yuan who had just gathered people outside the house. Set off.
Although what Changsun Heng'an just said was very fulfilling, when the two brothers followed Li Yuan's large number of people and finally arrived outside the Changsun Mansion, the faces of the Changsun brothers had turned to death. This incident actually happened in the Changsun Mansion. Needless to say, it must be related to Wanhe.
At this moment, many people had gathered outside the Changsun Mansion. Among them were the surrounding people, officials from Luoyang City, and servants of the Li Mansion. They formed a circle and blocked the gate of the Changsun Mansion. Really. However, as Li Yuan's troops arrived, the people who were watching the excitement immediately ran away in a swarm. No one dared to stay and cause any trouble.
When the officials saw so many people from Li Yuan arriving with murderous intent, they were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweat. After they received the report from the servants of the Li family, their own master was so frightened that he almost fainted. Only these officials could do it. We were sent here, but the adults dared not come over. They simply pretended to be sick at home. How dare they, the rest of the gang, interfere with the affairs of the dignified Duke of Tang. They could only help the servants to protect the murder scene. good.
However, when those servants saw Li Yuan coming in person, they all honestly made way for Li Yuan. When Li Yuan saw it, he immediately got off his horse and ran quickly towards the door of Changsun Mansion. But there was something a little under his feet. Floating. He almost fell down several times. He finally got to the door. When he saw Li Xuanba's body lying on the ground not far away, and Li Xiuning sitting on the ground next to him, leaning against the door and still sobbing. .Immediately, my steps were frozen. I couldn’t take any steps.
"Xuan. Xuanba." Li Yuan was silent for a long time. He finally opened his mouth and shouted. But this time, his voice was dry and hoarse, and he almost couldn't make a sound.
But with just such a little sound, Li Xiuning, who was leaning on the door, trembled. She turned her head and saw Li Yuan. At this moment, Li Xiuning's face was almost that of a dead person. Her hair was messy and she could no longer hide her daughter's body. The moment she saw Li Yuan, Li Xiuning's swollen walnut-like eyes immediately burst into tears. Li Xiuning climbed up from the ground. She cried and rushed towards Li Yuan: "Dad, fourth brother, he. Fourth brother, he...wuwuwu..."
Li Yuan let Li Xiuning hug him and cried bitterly. But he looked straight at Li Xuanba's body. He seemed to expect that Li Xuanba would be like Li Xiuning. He suddenly got up from the ground and threw himself into his arms like he did when he was a child. It's a pity that after waiting for a long time, Li Xuanba still lay there motionless. There was no sign of a miracle happening at all.
Even though Li Yuan usually scolds the impatient third son the most, because of Li Xuanba's health, Li Yuan cherishes Li Xuanba the most. In his opinion, the other three sons are healthy and strong. Only Li Xuanba was weak and had been sick since childhood. Li Yuan even felt guilty about Li Xuanba. Li Yuan was even ready to pass on his position as the Duke of the country to Li Xuanba in the future. Let him I will have someone to rely on in the future. At least my life will not be worse than the other three brothers.
But I never expected that Li Xuanba would have an accident at such a young age. I wonder if anything in the world could be more unacceptable than a white-haired person giving a black-haired person. Today, Li Yuan already feels like he is broken. He lost his heart last year. I love my wife. I lost my beloved son today. Li Yuan seems to have aged more than ten years all of a sudden.
Seeing Li Yuan there in a daze, Li Xiuning threw herself into Li Yuan's arms and kept crying. Changsun Heng'an and Changsun Wuji, who came with them, also felt more and more embarrassed. Changsun Wuji took advantage of the fact that the people around him were not paying attention. Quietly, he whispered in Changsun Heng'an's ear: "Second brother, since this happened in our Changsun Mansion, then we can ask Uncle Fu and it will become clear."
"Yeah." Changsun Heng'an also agreed. But soon, Changsun Heng'an frowned again. He looked around and asked quietly: "No. Such a big thing happened at home. How come Uncle Fu disappeared. Could it be that something happened to Uncle Fu?"
Changsun Heng'an said this. Changsun Wuji was also surprised. He looked around hurriedly, and sure enough he didn't see Uncle Fu. Uncle Fu is loyal to the Changsun family. Changsun Wuji also treats Uncle Fu like a family member. Something might have happened to Uncle Fu. Changsun Wuji was also panicked. He immediately said: "Second brother, something must have happened to Uncle Fu. What should I do?"
"No rush." After all, Changsun Heng'an had experienced many life and death tests on the battlefield. He quickly forced himself to calm down. He shook his brother's hand hard and whispered: "Uncle Fu will be fine. Let's just wait and see. Later, I will see the opportunity and sneak back home to see if I can find Aunt Fu and ask about Uncle Fu's whereabouts." The Aunt Fu mentioned by the eldest son Heng'an is Uncle Fu's wife. Aunt Fu is usually there. He stays in the kitchen of the house and rarely comes out.
Changsun Wuji nodded. He had never practiced martial arts. Only by relying on Changsun Heng'an's skills did he have the chance to sneak into the house. Now he could only do this. At this time, Li Yuan, who had been stunned there, finally got it. reaction.
Li Yuan first slowly raised his arms, and then gently helped Li Xiuning up in his arms. He asked in a deep voice: "Xiu Ning, tell me, what is going on? The whole thing, from beginning to end, exactly. Tell me." While Li Yuan was doing all this, his eyes did not move away from Li Xuanba's body for a moment. There was a chill in his words that was unbearable.
At this moment, Li Xiuning also slowly stopped crying. She just kept sobbing. She told the whole thing intermittently. Li Xiuning was honest. She narrated the whole thing objectively and did not add any exaggeration. As Li Xiuning narrated, Li Yuan's face became increasingly gloomy. In the end, it was as if he had been frozen into ice.
"That's it. After my fourth brother fell, he just never got up again." Li Xiuning said that when Li Xuanba died, she couldn't control her emotions again. Tears flowed down her hands. He directly covered his mouth and started crying again.
"Li Zhong." Li Yuan had a gloomy face. He turned his head and shouted at the servant he had brought behind him. Immediately, a middle-aged man came out and saluted Li Yuan with a fist in his hand. Li Yuan shouted in a deep voice. : "Find out the slave who was sent to Changsun's house to invite people under my order."
Who is Li Yuan? He has been in the officialdom for so many years. He immediately heard the truth. The whole thing started with those servants. Li Xuanba and Li Xiuning were clearly taken advantage of by these servants. So Li Yuan wants to clear up the cause of Li Xuanba's death. These servants are the first to bear the brunt. Li Zhong is the most capable assistant in Li Yuan's house. He handles things neatly and is loyal to Li Yuan. He listens to Li Yuan's orders. Zhong immediately shouted in response and turned around to carry out Li Yuan's order. Then, Li Yuan turned his head again and asked Li Xiuning word by word: "Xiuning, Xuanba is really chasing that Wan He Did something just happen?"
