Li Su and Sun Furen didn't move, but Li Zhi, who was eating a lot on the side, was stunned, the long bamboo stick meat strip in his hand fell to the ground with a snap, his eyes widened in shock, and he looked at Li Su and Sun Furen sluggishly.

Li Su smiled silently, Sun Furen's face was pale, just looking at the appearance of the two, Li Zhi understood everything.

"Sun County Order, you actually ...... It turned out to be ......" Li Zhi pointed at him tremblingly, looking at a panic.

At a young age, today is the first time I have seen the sinister conditions of people's hearts.

Boom!

Fang Lao Wu and Wang Zhu behind Li Su were stunned for a moment, and at the same time pulled out their swords, and the cold blades were placed on Sun Furen's neck.

"What a thief, I almost told you to deceive you!" Wang Zhu couldn't help but say angrily, thinking that Li Su often met with Sun Furen these days to discuss the matter of quelling the chaos, if Sun Furen had murderous thoughts in his heart and prepared early, Li Su and His Royal Highness the King of Jin didn't know how many times they had died, thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on the backs of Wang Zhu and Fang Lao Wu, and they were terrified.

The happy barbecue banquet instantly became tense and dignified, and the saber rattling.

Li Su still smiled, waved his hand at Wang Zhu and Fang Lao Wu, and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous, be polite to Sun Xianling, he is a scholar, even if he plays with fame, he will definitely not personally assassinate me and King Jin, put down the knife and give Sun Xianling a little dignity......"

Fang Lao Wu and Wang Zhu hesitated, after all, they still didn't dare to be careless, the two of them grabbed Sun Furen's arm left and right, and then began to search his body from top to bottom, and after making sure that Sun Furen did not have a murder weapon on him, he put the knife into the sheath, took a step back, his eyes were still staring at him with vigilance, and he maintained a posture of standing up and escorting him at any time.

After being revealed by Li Su's identity just now, Sun Furen's face turned very white, and after hearing Li Su's words, he finally raised his head and glanced at him gratefully, bowed and said, "Thank you Hou Ye Li, for preserving the last trace of decency for me." ”

This time, the self-proclaimed name is no longer "Xiaguan", but "me".

Li Su shook his head and said, "You don't have to thank me, even if you are busy running around for the victims these days, even if it ...... You're all pretending, and you've done some practical things after all. ”

Sun Furen smiled miserably: "Yes, behind the Chen family in Qizhou, there is still a larger family of gate valves, and I am a chess piece in their hands." ”

Li Su let out a long sigh, and the whole person suddenly deflated for some reason, and the compelling edge he showed just now was no longer goodbye.

Starting from the barbecue, Li Su looks lazy and tired on the outside, but in fact, he has a string tightly in his heart, and every word he says means something, because he knows that from the moment the grain and grass are burned, it is the time of the showdown, and the other party takes the lead, which seems to mess up the people's hearts, but on the opposite side, why not expose himself? So after burning the grain, Li Su did not rush to command the firefighting, but entered the county government as soon as possible and recruited Sun Furen to come over for a barbecue, the intention was also here, in contrast, digging out the tumor hidden in Jinyang and uprooting the forces behind the scenes, this matter is far more important than firefighting.

At this moment, hearing Sun Furen finally admit it in person, Li Su's whole person suddenly felt in a trance, saying that it was relieved, or the exhaustion after the victory, but suddenly, the emotions full of fighting spirit were discharged, and what was left was a thick prostration and relief.

"Beauty, why do you want to be a thief?" Li Su closed his eyes and muttered.

Sun Furen hung his head and said with a painful expression: "I was originally the son of the Hanmen of Qizhou, I was smart and studious since I was a child, familiar with the scriptures and righteousness of the sages, and I was full of heart to serve the country at that time, and I just wanted to do my best for the Tang Dynasty, not to be heard in the temple, but to guard the land for the Son of Heaven and benefit the people, until I learned and wanted to go to Chang'an for the scientific examination, I found that the world was not what I expected......"

"The scientific examination is ......" Sun Furen smiled helplessly, and said: "The scientific examination is the only way out for the students of the poor family, which is a well-known thing in the world, but the scientific examination is the enemy of the family in the eyes of the door valve, because the scientific examination takes the cold man and the master, bypassing the family gate valve recommendation This is the only way, from then on, the cold man does not have to cast a roll to the door valve, you can directly enter the office with a splendid article, and the poor man after entering the office naturally cannot become the henchman of the family of the door valve. Rather, they are directly loyal to the capable officials of the royal family, and for the gate valve, the scientific examination is a sharp sword for the heavenly family to weaken their power, so they hate the scientific examination, and at the same time do everything possible to prevent the poor scholars from participating in the scientific examination......"

"Zhenguan nine years, I asked myself to learn something, I wanted to say goodbye to my parents, go to Chang'an to take the exam, but the Chen family in Qizhou did not know where to hear the news, so they sent someone out to block, I just came out of Qizhou City less than thirty miles, and was chased back by the Chen family fast horse, and at the same time, there were nearly 20 scholars in Qizhou City who were also ready to participate in the scientific examination, and brought us back to Qizhou City half forced and half invited, the head of the Chen family summoned us, saying that we and other students do not have to take the scientific examination, and the Chen family can recommend it to the imperial court for us, of course, the implication of the words We only knew later, Since it was recommended by the Chen family, he would naturally become a henchman of the Chen family's forces after becoming an official in the future, and he would take the interests of the Chen family as his own responsibility......"

Sun Furen laughed more and more miserably: "...... At that time, I was young and did not understand the world, and fame and fortune were very heavy, I wanted to be an official, and after hesitation, I agreed to the recommendation of the Chen family, after half a year, I really became an official, first Hedong Daizhou under the jurisdiction of a small county of the county order, and then because I was an official and diligent, within a year after taking office, I opened up the wasteland to grow grain, greatly revitalized water conservancy, encouraged marriage and childbirth, and during the two years of office, the population of the county increased by more than 4,000 people. …”

"Jinyang, the land of Emperor Gaozu Longxing, known as the third capital of the Tang Dynasty, said to be a big county, in fact, it is already a state and county, I was confused when I became the commander of Jinyang County, the Chen family sent someone to find me, told me that this is the result of their operation behind the scenes, and instructed me to always pay attention to the actions of all the scholars on the ground in Jinyang, and secretly cultivate wings, waiting for the opportunity to move......"

Li Su had been listening quietly, and then suddenly interjected: "What does it mean to 'wait for the opportunity'? ”

Sun Furen smiled bitterly: "'Waiting for an opportunity', naturally waiting for an opportunity, at that time I didn't know what opportunity to wait for, until the end of last year, the heavy snow did not stop, and the Chen family finally found me again, then I understood that this heavy snow was the opportunity they had been waiting for for three years." Since the end of the year, the Chen family has sent a lot of people into Jinyang, these people quickly dispersed in the villages and townships of Jinyang, I know what they want to do, but I can't stop it, not only can't stop it, but also be their accomplice, because from the day I became an official, my body has been branded with the mark of the Chen family, and I can......'t get rid of it for the rest of my life."

"So many strangers suddenly entered Jinyang County, which naturally aroused the vigilance of the village Zheng, and many Li Zheng reported the matter to the county government, while I, pretending not to take it to heart, forced the matter to press down, and let the people sent by the Chen family turn the clouds and rain in Jinyang, and the final result was ...... I won't say more, but I'm sure you've seen it clearly. ”

Sun Furen finished speaking, although he tried to say it as simply as possible, but he also said it for half an hour.

After finishing speaking, Sun Furen's expression was gloomy and he was silent, while Li Zhi was still shocked, and a pair of eyes kept rolling back and forth on Sun Furen and Li Su's faces.

Li Su's expression was very calm, the answer was originally revealed by him personally, and what Sun Furen said only verified his speculation, so he was not surprised.

In the courtyard of the county government, there was an eerie silence inexplicably, which was suffocating.

I don't know how long it took, Li Su said: "Behind the Chen family, is it really the Taiyuan Wang family?" ”

This question is important because it has to do with which direction the butcher's knife raised by the imperial court will be chopped.

It's a pity that Li Su didn't get the answer he wanted, Sun Furen shook his head with a wry smile: "Although I am a county magistrate, I am just a chess piece in the hands of the Chen family, Li Houye, do you think they will let a chess piece know too much of the inside story?" As early as when I was in Daizhou, I had a guess that the Chen family was just a small gate valve in Qizhou, neither Guanlong's famous family, nor the seven sects and five surnames, the power in the court can be said to be very weak, since the Sui Dynasty, the direct line of the Chen family has only been a few assassins, such a small gate valve, dare to turn the clouds and rain in the land of Longxing, incite civil unrest, if these are all done by the Chen family, I don't believe it, I know very well that the Chen family must be attached to a larger force, this force is the culprit and source of the Jinyang Rebellion, For that family of gate valves, the Chen family is just a pawn in their hands, but I don't know who they are. ”

Li Su's hand trembled slightly imperceptibly, and a bitter look gradually appeared on his smiling face.

Well, the mystery is solved, and even more trouble is coming.

Family gate valve, according to Sun Furen's statement, the power of this gate valve is so big, it seems that it is either Guan Long's famous family, or one of the world's well-known seven sects and five surnames, no matter which gate valve is not easy to move, even if it is Li Shimin, who is the son of heaven, he has to be afraid of these gate valves.

However, the Jinyang Rebellion was traced to the end, and the results of peeling off the cocoon pointed straight to these thousand-year-old gate valves, what should I do? Bring soldiers to the door to extinguish this gate valve?

If he really did this, it is estimated that Li Shimin was very happy, and he wished that such a fool would come out, and the matter would be big, so he just pulled Li Su to the execution ground, cut off his head with a knife, explained to the door valve, and cut off a heart trouble, as for the sacrifice, Li Su believes that in Li Shimin's eyes, cutting off the disaster is much more important than his life, and under the trade-off, it is a very cost-effective business to kill a Li Su.
