Chapter 452 and are precious
"Your Highness, none of the 228 people should have missed the net. Seventeen people have been killed and thirty-seven have been injured. The target has now fled to Li Wen's mansion. Please make it clear!"
In the study of the British Royal Palace, Li Yaodong, dressed in black, bowed and stood in the hall, facing Li Xian, who was sitting high, and reported briefly.
"The order of the orphan, all the dead and injured, the pension is doubled, and the family members of the victims are taken care of by the 'Deng Ji Company' as usual. In addition, send people to Lintao. Be sure to find out the nest of the 'Black Wind Thief' within two months, and there must be no mistake!"
If there is a war, people will die. Li Xian will not be clear about this. However, as soon as he heard that he lost as many as 17 people in his own battle, Li Xian's heart still tightened fiercely. You should know that this group of people who will go out are not ordinary sergeants, but the most elite power under Li Xian, which is the place of Li Xian's team. It's strange that this guy has lost so many hands that Li Xian is not distressed.
"No!"
At this sight, Li Xian's face was solemn. Li Yaodong did not dare to neglect it. He hurriedly answered, hurriedly withdrew from the study, and went to arrange relevant matters without mentioning it.
"Your Highness, the king's assassin is almost here."
Li Xian was not in a good mood, so he didn't want to talk. He just sat still dullly. Seeing this, Zhang Jianzhi had to say something.
"Well, it's time for him to arrive, okay. If this one is still there, I have to ask him and Liu Yizhi to be a companion."
Lanzhou is the military and political center of Hexi, and the most important place. Li Xian can't tolerate the position of Lanzhou's assassin in the hands of outsiders. Even if this person has excellent ability, Li Xian wants absolute control, not the goods of the left and right. There is no doubt that for Wang Geng's wavering, Li Xian has been completely Without patience, this post station case is Li Xian's last chance for Wang Geng. If he still wants to be a pure minister, Li Xian has to bear the pain and let him take the blame.
"A good bird chooses a tree and rests. The king's assassin is not a fool. He will know how to choose."
Zhang Jianzhi is not a rapper, but in order to distract Li Xian's thoughts, he can't help but talk a little more.
"I hope so."
Li Xian is actually very optimistic about Wang Geng's ability. Otherwise, he will not recommend him as the governor of Lanzhou. However, then again, Li Xian's subordinates are full of talents, and there is really no shortage of Wang Geng. The reason why he was recommended as the governor of Lanzhou at the beginning was that what he valued was actually Wang Geng's neutrality. He could successfully pass the review of the court, but he didn't expect that Wang Geng planned to carry out the neutrality to the end. This was not the result that Li Xian wanted. A few months ago, Li Xian didn't catch the opportunity. This time, Li Xian didn't want Wang Geng to be so free.
"Your Highness, Wang Geng, the governor of Lanzhou, is looking for a meeting outside the door."
As soon as Li Xian's voice fell, he saw Gao Miao hurried out of the screen and walked quickly to Li Xian, rushing to report.
"Are you coming? Then pass it on!"
Wang Geng's arrival was expected. Li Xian didn't care. He raised his eyebrows and ordered indifferently.
"No!"
Gao Mio answered Nuo loudly, turned around and hurried out of the study. After a few moments, Wang Geng, who had been sweating with his head, turned back.
"Your Highness, it's not good. Something big has happened. The post station was attacked at night. Pei's external staff were all killed on the spot. Only Pei's external staff was nowhere to be found. It is suspected that he was captured by life. The subordinate has sent someone to block the scene. Now it is under investigation. I would like to ask Your Highness to make a clear stop."
The imperial envoy represents the imperial power, and a little mistake is a big deal. Not to say anything about the current situation, whether Pei Shoude can be saved or not, as a governor of Lanzhou, Wang Geng will never escape from the matter. Even if he does not die, he has to take off the upper skin. It is inevitable to be anxious. This is not waiting for Gao Miu. Last time, Wang Geng couldn't wait to grab the front and reported it with a panicked face.
"Huh? What's going on? There are many entourage outside Pei, and with the escort of a battalion you sent, why did such a tragedy happen? Say! You made it clear to me!"
Hearing Wang Geng's words, Li Xian suddenly stood up, stared at Wang Geng, and roared angrily. Under the burst of anger, Wang Geng was so scared that he couldn't help trembling.
"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why, I don't know why, I don't know why, don't..."
As soon as Wang Geng was anxious, he immediately staddled, took a big step back, and reluctantly explained that the beads of sweat on his forehead surged like a waterfall.
"I don't know? I don't know! As an assassin, you don't want to appease the place, and you are very busy, huh? If such a big event happens, how can I explain to my father and say!"
Since Li Xian intends to force Wang Geng to stand in line, he will not leave a face for him at this time, and he will not wait for him to finish speaking. It is a good scolding.
"The subordinate is guilty of neglecting his duties. He is really ashamed. He dares not argue. He pleads with His Highness to punish him. The subordinates and subordinates are incompetent. He is ashamed of his love for His Highness. He is subordinate..."
The matter is so big that Wang Geng really has no way. In addition to trying to take his own guilt, he really doesn't know what to say.
"Your Highness is angry. After the matter has happened, it is finally time to solve it."
Seeing that it was almost time for the fire, Zhang Jianzhi, who had been sitting silently beside him, finally opened his mouth and persuaded him gently.
"Resolved? How to solve it? Humph, the incident of this lonely assassination has not been clarified, and there is such a big drama there. This Hexi is really evil. How dare anyone come to the lonely office to mess around and make the lonely angry? What's the way to breathe this anger, hum!"
Li Xian's acting skills are naturally very pure. He is full of anger, and there is no fake at all. His angry face can't be seen unnatural at all.
"Your Highness, the matter has not yet reached an irreparable place, but Pei Yuanwai can be safe. This matter is particularly plausible. In Zhang's opinion, it is still necessary to try to rescue Pei Yuanwai first, and then calculate the rest. Although Wang Zhishi has neglected, it is not impossible for him to make up for his achievements."
Zhang Jianzhi's acting skills are obviously not bad. When he plays a good person, he behaves like a man and his words are extremely sincere. Wang Geng is so moved that he can't stop crying.
"Huh! Legend of the orphan's order: The whole city is a big search, be sure to find out the whereabouts of Pei, live to see people, die to see the corpse, Mr. Zhang, accompany him, be sure to deal with this matter. Otherwise, not only are you going to be unlucky, but also have to eat and hang up. What are you doing? Don't go quickly!"
Lone with Zhang Jianzhi's words were extremely sincere, but Li Xian's "anger" obviously did not dissipated much. He snorted coldly and even took Zhang Jianzhi together.
"No!"
"I'm on my orders!"
After Li Xian issued an order, Zhang and Wang did not dare to disobey. They bowed their promises. Qi Qi Qi withdrew from the study and went to Zhang Luo to search the whole city without mentioning it.
Lao Wang, I'm sorry. If you still want to be a pure minister this time, you have to let you be enough at once! Looking at the backs of Zhang and Wang who withdrew, Li Xian secretly breathed and quickly adjusted his mentality to welcome the arrival of the second group of guests. As for whether Wang Geng would be persuaded by Zhang Jianzhi, Li Xian did not care. If Wang Geng refused to lose, he would sit on the cold bench.
"Your Highness, Li Zhonglang has come to Chen Wushuang, the document in the house, and he is waiting to see you outside the door of the house."
Li Xian's expectation was very accurate. Less than half an hour after Zhang and Wang left, Gao Miao came to show Chen Wushuang's arrival.
"Is he alone?"
Li Xian has already passed the bottom of Chen Wushuang. He knows that this person is the real host of the King of Yue in Hexi. He is not surprised that he came at this time. He also knows that he must have come to give gifts. The only thing he is uncertain about is how big the "gift" he brings.
"If you go back to Your Highness, he will be the only one."
Li Xian asked, but Gao Mian didn't dare to delay a little, so he hurriedly answered.
"Well, then invite him to the study for a while."
Li Xian nodded quietly and casually ordered.
"No."
Gao Mio respectfully answered the promise, and even accompanied Chen Wushuang, who was dressed in blue, walked in from outside the room.
"Chaomin Chen Wushuang met His Royal Highness the King of England."
Chen Wushuang was very polite. As soon as he saw Li Xian's face, he rushed forward and saluted respectfully.
"Mr. Chen doesn't have to do this. Just be flat. Come on, show Mr. Chen a seat!"
For the people who came to give gifts, Li Xian naturally had to be polite, so he waved his hand warmly, signaled Chen Wushuang to get up, and shouted that someone had brought a brocade for Chen Wushuang.
"Thank you for giving me a seat."
Chen Wushuang finished the salute with honor and disgrace, and did not show much courtesy. After thanking him, he walked to the side of the brocade, lifted the hem of his robe, sat down regularly, and his attitude was calm and calm. Seeing this, the book boys who were waiting for him hurriedly served the newly made fragrant tea, and then all withdrew from the study.
"Mr. Chen, please use tea!"
Li Xian had guessed the bottom of Chen Wushuang's intention, but he was not in a hurry to get to the point, but greeted him with a smile.
"Good tea, is this tea Longjing before the rain in the West Lake?"
Although Chen Wushuang came to admit defeat, he did not plan to move out all the old bottoms as soon as he came up. Seeing that Li Xian was not in a hurry, he also made a leisurely posture, picked up the tea bowl, took a small sip shallowly, squinted his eyes slightly, and shouted good.
"Yes, my husband is really smart. This tea was sent by Jiangnan merchants. I thought it was good to drink alone, so I kept some. If you also feel good, I will send some to my husband's house later."
In terms of pretending to be elegant, Li Xian, who has had three generations of experience, is a little more elegant than anyone else. He is gentle and polite, as if the big guy is an old friend.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness. However, it's hard for the Caomin to be calm, and it's okay for the Caomin to give a big gift to Your Highness?"
Li Xian can calm down, that's why everything is under his control, but Chen Wushuang doesn't have the confidence. Seeing that Li Xianchi didn't ask his own intention, Chen Wushuang had to turn the words to the point with the word "courtesy" at present.
"Oh? Sir's meaning is..."
When he heard Chen Wushuang's words, Li Xian smiled secretly in his heart, but his face pretended to be surprised. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Wushuang suspiciously, as if he really couldn't understand what he said...
