I'm a marquis in Datang

Du Qi handed the latest contents of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Romance of the Gods to Li Yuan, and stood quietly below.Li Yuan couldn't wait to read the book, he was fascinated by it, and even more energetic.

Whether it is the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or the Romance of the Gods, part of it has already been serialized, and the plots are getting better and better.Especially the Romance of the Three Kingdoms has now entered the most exciting part.

As a result, Li Yuan was very happy to see it.

Du Qi waited quietly below, while Li Yuan watched calmly.Because we have to wait for the magistrate of Chang'an to come, so

So Li Yuan didn't browse quickly at one glance and ten lines at a time, but looked down slowly.

When the magistrate of Chang'an came, he was also standing beside Du Qi.

When he saw Du Qi, his cheeks twitched.

Met Du Qi again.

He found out that as long as he meets Du Qi, nothing good will happen.Especially now that he was called by the emperor and Du Qi was involved, it must be the assassination of Du Qi.

Wang Minzhi could only stand obediently, waiting for Li Yuan to read.

After a long time, after reading the latest chapters of the two books, Li Yuan raised his head, and his gaze fell directly on the magistrate of Chang'an

, with a serious expression on his face, he asked in a deep voice: "Wang Minzhi, have you ever investigated the assassination of Du Qi?"

Wang Minzhi felt apprehensive, bowed and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the officials arranged government servants and carefully investigated Xu Ming's situation. Xu Ming was born and raised in Chang'an, and he is also a well-known ranger in Chang'an. "

"Xu Ming is an assassin, who specializes in picking up people's missions and using people's money to eliminate disasters for others."

"According to the investigation by the subordinate officials, before he assassinated Du Qi, he had already committed ten murders, but Xu Ming's actions had not been tracked down before. And before Xu Ming met Du Qi, he had met an extraordinary person."

"This kid just found out here, and all the clues are broken. The current clues only know that Xu Ming met a person, and assassinated Du Qi in the name of offering treasures:"

After a pause, Wang Minzhi said again: "Unexpectedly, there is no trace of the person who paid Xu Ming to assassinate Du Qi. At this point, there is nothing to be found, no clues. The officials are incompetent, I implore Your Majesty to punish."

this thing.Wang Minzhi had no choice.

Can only plead guilty.

After all, Xu Ming was dead.

Without Xu Ming, the suspect who assassinated Du Qi, it would be impossible to investigate and deal with the murderer behind the scenes.

"waste!"

After hearing this, Li Yuan scolded.

When Wang Minzhi heard it, he knelt down with a plop and knelt down to plead guilty.He couldn't find out at all, so under the current situation, Wang Minzhi could only hope that Li Yuan would show his respect.

Du Qi knew that Wang Minzhi was a member of King Qin's lineage, so he said, "Your Majesty, I also blame my guard, Kunlun Nu, for this matter. He shot Xu Ming to death regardless of the severity. The matter is over, and there is nothing else to do." Ways. This matter, let’s stop here. In short, when I go out in the future, I just need to be more careful, and be more prepared, and I’ll be fine.”

Li Yuan was quite angry.

The more he pondered, the more suspicious Li Jiancheng became.After all, Du Qi is not an official and has nothing to do with people in the court.But Du Qi is just doing business, and it will not develop to the point where someone assassinates Du Qi.

In addition, the clues are all broken, and there is energy to cut off all the clues, making it impossible for the Chang'an County Government to verify. The biggest possibility is the East Palace.

Chapter 126 Li Yuan's Compensation

Li Yuan's Compensation

Li Yuan glanced at Wang Minzhi, and was silent in his heart, it would not be appropriate for Wang Minzhi to come forward in this matter.In particular, Li Jiancheng is the prince of the East Palace and the prince of the country, so officials cannot let officials investigate Li Jiancheng thoroughly.

Li Yuan thought for a while, and didn't want to keep Wang Minzhi any longer, and ordered: "Wang Minzhi, step back."

"The officer will leave!"

Wang Minzhi stood up quickly, bowed to Li Yuan, took two steps back, and left in a hurry.

At this moment, Wang Minzhi was relieved.

It can be regarded as a relief.

Facing Li Yuan, he felt trembling in his heart, always worried that things would involve him.

Li Yuan looked at Du Qi, and asked: "Du Erlang, you have also thought about someone who can do it. In the end, you suspected that this matter was done by the Crown Prince of the East Palace. But, you dare not say it, right?"

Du Qi said: "Your Majesty, in this assassination, Xu Ming is already dead, and there is no evidence left. This matter cannot be investigated. So this matter can only be

So far, please rest assured, boy, just be more careful in the future. "

When Li Yuan heard such words, he became even more angry.

This matter is definitely Li Jiancheng.

If not Li Jiancheng, who else could it be?

Last time, Li Yuan arranged for Xiao Li to go to the East Palace to reprimand Li Jiancheng, and ordered Li Jiancheng to have a heart.But in the end, Li Jiancheng took the risk and arranged for Du Qi to be assassinated.

Such a despicable method made Li Yuan feel ashamed.

Li Yuan said in a deep voice: "Du Erlang, it is not easy to deal with the prince of the East Palace. If the punishment is too heavy, it will easily cause turmoil in the court. What's more, there is no evidence in this case. In addition, the East Palace is the foundation of the country and cannot be easily shaken. So this As for the matter, I issued an order to the East Palace, ordering the prince to close the door and contemplate for half a month. Are you satisfied?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Du Qi respectfully said: "Your Majesty Long En, Du Qi, I am very grateful."

For Du Qi, he knew very well that it was impossible to deal with Li Jiancheng.As Li Yuan said, there is no evidence for the matter, and on the other hand, because Li Jiancheng is the prince of the East Palace and the prince of the country, it is impossible to deal with it arbitrarily.Under this premise, Li Yuan was able to order Li Jiancheng to contemplate behind closed doors for half a month, which was already quite a severe punishment.

This achieved Du Qi's goal.

Because Du Qi used the assassination to weaken Li Jiancheng's influence on Li Yuan, making Li Yuan hate Li Jiancheng.In addition, this incident also weakened Li Jiancheng's influence in the court.

When the news that Li Jiancheng was ordered to contemplate behind closed doors came out, Li Jiancheng would definitely suffer huge losses and his prestige would be greatly affected. For Du Qi, such a result was the best result.

Li Yuan said: "After all, I am ashamed of you in this matter. Tell me, what request do you have?"

Du Qi shook his head and said: "Your Majesty has been extremely gracious in treating his ministers. Although the assassination happened, to the boy, it was just a small injury, not worth mentioning."

Li Yuan said: "Let's talk, as long as I can satisfy you, I will definitely treat you well."

Seeing that Li Yuan insisted on this, Du Qi thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty knows that I like to collect calligraphy and paintings. If that's the case, Your Majesty will inscribe another word for you."

A bright smile suddenly appeared on Li Yuan's old cheeks.

This kid Du Qi is reassuring.

Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "Tell me, what word do you want to inscribe?"

After Du Qi thought for a while, he said: "Your Majesty, please bestow the four characters of 'poetry and book biography'. After the boy gets these four characters, he will prepare to frame them and hang them directly above the hall of his home as the Du family's family name." inherited."
