Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou reached the manor.

It was the little sister who opened the door. The little sister welcomed people directly after seeing Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou, and said, "Two noble guests, we have been waiting for the law-protection for a long time."

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou followed each other and walked inside.

However, before Zou Qingyuan ... a woman appeared.

Seeing that woman walking towards this side, Long Xiaoyuan frowned even if secretly.

"Miss." Xiao Yan saluted at Wu Xiangyuan.

Wu Xiangyuan nodded, then, his eyes were staring at Shi Qingzhou tightly.

Long Xiaoyuan's face was dark, and Pi Xiaorou did not smile, blocking Wu Xiangyuan's eyes. "Is there anything wrong with this girl?"

Xiao Yan also felt that her own lady seemed a little strange, and she cast her doubtful attention.

Wu Xiangyuan smiled slightly. "I'll take you to Zou Hufa."

"How dare you bother the girl." Long Xiaoyuan immediately refused. "We can go with this little brother ourselves."

Wu Xiangyuan looked in the direction of Shi Qingzhou, biting her teeth gently, and suddenly said, "Don't Brother Brother remember the little girl?"

Long Xiaoyuan frowned fiercely.

Shi Qingzhou hesitated for a moment. The title of "brother of stones" reminded him of something ...

Long Xiaoyuan also looked at Shi Qingzhou.

Shi Qingzhou said lightly, "Is the girl wrong?"

Shi Qingzhou's words slightly changed Wu Xiangyuan's face, and his expression paled.

Xiaoyan opened her mouth, trying to say something, but closed her mouth again.

Long Xiaoyuan pulled Shi Qingzhou's hand, and said to the little sister, "Let's go."

Xiaoyan glanced at Wu Xiangyuan vaguely, seeing that the other party had nothing to do, no special instructions, and then he smiled and said, "Please come with me.

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou followed the little sister-in-law to Zou Qingyuan.

This time, Wu Xiangyuan did not follow.

Long Xiaoyuan glanced at Shi Qingzhou next to him, seeing that the other side was calm, squinting slightly.

However, this is not the place to speak, so Long Xiaoyuan asked nothing.

Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan came to the last room where Zou Qingyuan was waiting.

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou entered the room together.

Zou Qingyuan did not know what happened on the road just now, and saw Shi Qingzhou greeted him with a smile.

Compared to the last time, Shi Qingzhou didn't look so happy, as if he was not in a good mood.

Zou Qingyuan inquired immediately, and Shi Qingzhou sighed.

"Do Brother Zou know the Liu family?"

Zou Qingyuan had a meal and immediately understood what the other party was referring to.

"Brother Shi already knows about the Liu family?"

Shi Qingzhou nodded. "I didn't know it. When I came out, I felt something strange in the street, so I asked people to check it. Then I knew about the Liu family ... This Liu family has always had a good reputation within the imperial city. Such a thing?"

Zou Qingyuan heard his words silent, and then said, "Brother Shi, since you asked, then I will say one thing that is not certain."

"Huh?" Shi Qingzhou said immediately after hearing the words: "Brother Zou, please."

"The mysterious person in the Liu family's house has always passed by late at night in the past few days. The Liu family may not know it, but it may just be a business partner, but why this partner suddenly started the entire Liu family ... This is hard to guess.

"Partner in business?" Shi Qingzhou's eyes cooled slightly.

Zou Qingyuan said: "What would it be if it weren't partners?"

Shi Qingzhou didn't say anything anymore, and was silent.

Long Xiaoyuan sighed, "Brother Zou knows something else?"

Zou Qingyuan shook his head. "Liu family, Tianjilou didn't pay much attention. I know that some people entered Liu's house late at night because those people are all good players."

"Master of rivers and lakes ..." Shi Qingzhou lowered his eyelid slowly. "The dead Liu family were all killed with one sword, the wounds were on their chests, and everyone's position was the same."

"Yes, this is not a secret. I went out of the Liu family and took a look at the scene. I saw the wounds on those people. The killer's martial arts are very high. He is a first-class swordsman." Zou Qingyuan Road.

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou looked at each other.

Shi Qingzhou said: "It is indeed a first-class swordsman. Although most of the Liu family cannot martial arts, if the assassin is not good at the sword, if the assassin's sword is unhappy, such wounds will not be formed. ... I think Tianjilou can make a list? "

Zou Qingyuan paused and nodded. "can."

Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly. "Since I can, brother Zou, can you give me that list now?"

Zou Qingyuan heard the words and smiled bitterly. "Brother Shi, this does not conform to the rules of our Tianji Building."

"Rules are dead, people are alive." Long Xiaoyuan said lightly.

Zou Qingyuan heard the words for a moment and said, "Okay, wait a minute, I'll go."

After Zou Qingyuan left, Long Xiaoyuan asked, "Is there any problem with what he brought out?"

"As long as he is willing to take it out, there will be no problem," Shi Qingzhou said with certainty.

Long Xiao nodded far away. "That's it, that's fine."

Shi Qingzhou nodded, and said softly, "Don't start, he dare not follow."

Long Xiao Yuan said: "You should not refuse if you are smart. This is the Imperial City."

Shi Qingzhou nodded in agreement.

What's more, after they came to the door and accepted the commission from Tianjilou, to a certain extent, they were already connected.

What's more, the whole world must be the emperor's land. Tianjilou should not refuse, and cannot refuse.

It didn't take long for Zou Qingyuan to leave, and about a quarter of an hour later he returned, and a list was already in his hand.

Shi Qingzhou did not open immediately, but took it out and stated the purpose of today.

"Is there news from Dong Ye Guo?"

Zou Qingyuan nodded. "Yes, Brother Shi looks at this."

Zou Qingyuan took out a bamboo slip, Shi Qingzhou took it, looked at it, and frowned slightly.

Moments later, Shi Qingzhou handed the bamboo slip to Long Xiaoyuan, who had also seen it.

Then, Long Xiaoyuan handed the bamboo slip back to Shi Qingzhou, who took it.

"We know some of the information in it," Long Xiaoyuan said lightly.

Zou Qingyuan did not immediately speak, but looked at Shi Qingzhou.

Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly. Tao: "Far means that we can get what we see on the surface, and what we need is deep inside."

Zou Qingyuan smiled bitterly. "I understand what Shi Brothers mean, but Shi Brothers, you know, our Tianji Tower has no foundation in Dongye Kingdom."

Shi Qingzhou slowly shook his head and smiled. "Brother Zou is modest in saying this."

Long Xiaoyuan said lightly, "Qingzhou is right, Brother Zou is humble."

Zou Qingyuan's expression changed slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "Well, we will continue to follow up."

"So, Brother Zou Lao stared a little more. We still have something today. If anything urgent, Brother Zou can send someone to tell.

Shi Qingzhou said.

Long Xiaoyuan nodded. "Yes, brother Zou should not be polite if he needs anything."

Zou Qingyuan heard the words and said immediately: "This is fine."

After two more sentences, Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan left Zou Qingyuan and took away two things.

A bamboo slip and a list.

After leaving Zou Qingyuan, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou said nothing.

All the way back to the imperial palace calmly, and when they returned, Hu Qingyuan was already waiting there.

The other party sought to meet through the normal channels. Long Xiaoyuan returned and sent the other party to the Royal Study Room.

Long Xiao went to the Royal Study Room, where Hu Qingyuan was already waiting.

"Wei Chen see the emperor, long live my emperor."

"Get up." Long Xiaoyuan sat down on the dragon chair in the royal study, and then said.

Hu Qingyuan got up and Long Xiaoyuan let people sit down.

Hu Qingyuan Cheng sat down in his seat in a frightened state.

Long Xiaoyuan didn't delay, he asked directly, "Ai Qing must be here because of the Liu family's case?"

"Yes, emperor, Wei Chen has found a little clue."

"Oh?" Long Xiaoyuan raised an eyebrow. "Tell me."

"Wei Chen found this thing in a basement of the Liu family." Hu Qingyuan carefully placed an earthy yellow paper bag on a tray, and then passed it to the hands of Long Xiaoyuan by the eunuch.

Long Xiaoyuan looked at it, "What is this?"

"Sulfur powder," Hu Qingyuan affirmed.

Long Xiaoyuan froze slightly. "Why is this under the Liu family?"

"Weichen didn't know. Weichen saw that this sulfur powder was placed in a very secretive dark grid. If Feichen's men had a good expert looking for an institution, I'm afraid I would ignore this.

Long Xiaoyuan pondered.

Hu Qingyuan didn't open his mouth when thinking about Long Xiaoyuan.

After a while, Long Xiao said, "What do you think?"

Hu Qingyuan groaned before he said, "The emperor, the suspicion is that the owner of the Liu family is suggesting something."

Shi Qingzhou stunned. "How to say?"

"Mr. Qi, the minister did not find anything unusual in the Liu family, but this sulfur powder will be so tightly stored in the Liu family, and ..."

After half an hour, Hu Qingyuan left the Royal Study, and Long Xiaoyuan was still thinking.

I don't know how long in the past, Shi Qingzhou's voice sounded in my ear.

"What are you thinking?"

Long Xiaoyuan returned to his mind fiercely. "Light boat? When did you come here?"

Shi Qingzhou said, "Come here for a while."

Long Xiaoyuan narrowed his lips slightly. "Light boat, Hu Qingyuan found something in Liu's house ..."

Explaining the clues investigated by Hu Qingyuan, Long Xiaoyuan did not add a bit of subjective speculation. After speaking, he looked at Shi Qingzhou.

Shi Qingzhou also groaned a little and slowly said, "So, Master Hu is skeptical. The sulfur powder was deliberately placed in the dark grid by the Liu family. The purpose is for us to find it and give us a hint?"

"Hu Qingyuan said so." Long Xiao distanced.

"What about you? What do you think?" Shi Qingzhou asked.

Long Xiaoyuan's finger touched the sulfur powder slightly, and said lightly: "Combined with the bamboo slips we saw ... Dong Yeguo, I'm afraid the picture is not small, is it?"

Shi Qingzhou was silent. Long Xiaoyuan continued: "From some information on the bamboo slips, it appears that private soldiers are being raised everywhere in Dongye Kingdom, and the real belonging of this private soldier is the court. When the court sent troops to our dynasty, those private soldiers Will become a regular army. "

Shi Qingzhou slowly walked behind Long Xiaoyuan. "Well ... but according to bamboo slips, the number of private soldiers is not too much today. It is not realistic to want to really use it, or the decisive use."

"That's because what bamboo slips have surveyed is not all, and it may not have become the climate." Long Xiao Yuan said.

"It is indeed possible. It is just ... Dongye Kingdom is far away from us after all, and we want to destroy those private forces, for fear it is very difficult. If we use rivers and lakes to organize ... annihilation everywhere, it is possible."

"Qingzhou wants to do this?" Long Xiaoyuan held Shi Qingzhou's hand and moved people from behind him to in front of him.

Shi Qingzhou shook his head slowly. "This is just one way, and this method will also pay a heavy price, and it is difficult for a master to find."

"Yes, masters are hard to find. The shadow guards we train can take on this task, but not enough."

Shi Qingzhou was silent, "Can be hired."

"Like letting Tianjilou do things?" Long Xiaoyuan shook his head slowly. "Those people on the rivers and lakes have armed force, but loyalty is not there. Even if it is driven by interests, it is easy to go against each other. It is impossible."

"God down?" Shi Qingzhou frowned. "If it is a war within our dynasty, it may still be defeated, but treason, I don't think they will."

Long Xiaoyuan still shook his head. "The light boat, those people, are sharp blades. If they are not used well, they will hurt themselves. We can't move this idea unless we have to."

Shi Qingzhou frowned. "So ... now that we know Dongye Kingdom is ready to go to war, we have to go to war."

Long Xiao nodded far away. "Yes, we need to prepare for war. However, while preparing for war ... we must speed up the process of finding trouble for Dong Yeguo. Rumors have been laid in Dong Yeguo, and what we need most now ... is taking root. Just a pity We cannot go to Dongye Kingdom in person. "

Shi Qingzhou stared slightly. "Do you want to go in person?"

Long Xiaoyuan smiled bitterly. "Not that I want to go, but someone who doesn't trust ..."

Just then, the little **** outside said, Fang Shuoyang asked for advice.

Long Xiaoyuan heard the words for a moment.

Shi Qingzhou narrowed his eyes. "Fang Shuoyang? Is Xu Gongzi beside him?"

"Emperor Qi Kai, Xu Gongzi is absent."

Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan, and Long Xiaoyuan's eyes flickered. "Light boat ... I think, I know what Fang Shuoyang did ..."

Shi Qingzhou paused. "what?"

Long Xiaoyuan smiled. "What Xu You told him ... he was afraid it was already decided."

Shi Qingzhou heard the words even more.

Long Xiaoyuan waved his hand. "Let him in."

"Yes!" Fang Shuoyang came in, kneeling, please.

Long Xiaoyuan immediately said: "Fang Gongzi need not be polite, get up."

Fang Shuo raised his body. His face was not so good-looking, even a little pale, but his eyes were firm, as if he had made a decision ...

Long Xiaoyuan glanced at the other side and looked at the determined look on the other side's face slowly. "You come, what's the matter?"
