Tao Jinshui thought about it, quickly prepared a few questions in his mind, and asked, "Since you are fake, where is the real Li Yan?" ”

Liu Yiren said: "This villain really doesn't know, that day the adults led the troops into the Xuanwang Mansion to arrest people, and the villain stayed in the Xuanwang Palace, and the old eunuch Peng took the Xuanwang and the maid Xiao Yao out of the palace and disappeared, if the soldiers have surrounded the Xuanwang Mansion, they will definitely not be able to go out openly!" There may be a secret passage in the palace, and they escaped from the secret passage, or there is a secret room in the palace, and they have been hiding in the secret room, waiting for all the soldiers to withdraw before sneaking away, except for these two possibilities, the villain can't think of any other way for them to escape! ”

Tao Jinshui slapped his head and immediately ordered the people around him: "Lock him up, give him food and drink, strictly guard him, and don't let anything happen to him!" Come with me, quick! ”

Tao Jinshui hurriedly arranged and immediately rushed to Xuanwangfu with dozens of soldiers, fortunately, during this time, the fake Li Yu has been staying in Xuanwang's Mansion to recuperate, and there are many soldiers guarding the palace, hoping that there is only a secret room in Xuanwang's Mansion, not a secret passage to the outside, if the real Li Yu runs away, it will be a big trouble!

Tao Jinshui rushed to Xuanwang's Mansion with his men and horses and immediately ordered the Xuanwang's Mansion to be re-fenced, and ordered people to search the mansion to find possible hidden passages.

The search lasted a whole afternoon, until it was dark and finally came the good news, a soldier found a wall in a room that was not normal, the area of this room was obviously smaller than what was seen outside, he suspected that there was a possibility of a secret passage or a secret room behind the wall, but he just couldn't find the mechanism.

After Tao Jinshui got the report, he also observed it, and soon found that there was indeed a problem with this wall, so he mobilized a large number of people to search for it in the room, turned over almost the entire room, and finally found the location of the mechanism.

With a click, the wall moved, the soldiers drew their blades one after another, and after the wall was completely moved, a swarthy doorway was revealed, Tao Jinshui immediately waved his hand: "Light the torch and go in!" ”

A group of officers and soldiers rushed in with torches and blades, and soon, the officers and soldiers escorted out three people from inside, and sure enough, it was Li Yu, the old eunuch Peng, and the maidservant Xiaoyao.

Tao Jinshui sneered and looked at Li Yu and the other three, "Sure enough, it is worthy of being the head of the dragon, and I even thought of using the golden cicada to hide from the shell, and even more boldly hid in the secret room of the palace, this wisdom is beyond the reach of the dust!" ”

Li Yu's face was calm and asked, "How did you find out?" The mechanism of this secret room is extremely secretive, and under normal circumstances, it is impossible to know that there is a secret passage here! ”

Tao Jinshui said: "The so-called Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky!" Your stand-in committed suicide by poisoning himself when we arrived, maybe he didn't want to die in his heart, and he had to take poison out of loyalty, but he was too hasty, and just after taking the pill, we took all kinds of means to get the pill out, and finally rescued the person, and stayed here for several days to recover, he was still dealing with us after recovering, but he still showed some flaws, we began to doubt him, he couldn't survive the torture, recruited! We didn't know that you were hiding here, and when we came to arrest you, you were in the house, and we had soldiers guarding us all the time, and if you wanted to escape, you couldn't swagger out, you could only hide or escape through the secret passage, if you had a secret passage, then you would have fled long ago, but you were just hiding here, unfortunately, the mistake made your plan go wrong! ”

Li Yu sighed: "It seems that everything is providential!" My lord, before I die, I have only one small request, and I hope you can meet it! ”

Tao Jinshui thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about it!" ”

"I want to meet the Regent!"

Tao Jinshui pondered for a moment and said, "I can report on my behalf, as for whether the regent will see you, I dare not guarantee!" ”

"Thank you! Come on! Li Yu said and stretched out his hands.

Tao Jinshui waved his hand, and the two officials took a pair of wooden shackles and put them on Li Yu.

The captain who was in charge of leading the team into the underground secret room to search came over and hugged his fist at Tao Jinshui and said, "My lord, there is nothing in the underground secret room except for some food, water and some books!" ”

"Wait!" Tao Jinshui stopped Li Xu, walked up to Li Yu again, and said, "King Xuan, there is one more thing, I hope you can hand it over!" ”

Li Chanted: "I don't know what the adults are referring to? ”

"The roster, the roster of all the personnel of your organization, don't tell me that there is no roster, I won't believe it, at this point, you should know that you have no possibility of turning the tables, so it's better to hand over the roster, so as not to make it difficult for me and the brothers!"

Li Yu turned to face Tao Jinshui and said, "This lord, I'm already finished, so why bother exposing those people?" I hope that they can live in peace, until I end all this, no one will know their identity from now on, they will not have to be afraid anymore, I have dragged them into the water for my own selfishness, I am already very sorry for them, how can I push them into the abyss again? You want me to betray them, it's impossible! ”

Tao Jinshui thought for a while, and waved his hand to the soldiers and officials around him: "All retreat outside the room!" ”

Everyone retreated, and the old eunuch Peng and the maid Xiao Yao were also escorted away, and only Tao Jinshui and Li Yu were left in the room.

Tao Jinshui said: "Lord Xuan, there are only you and me here, and I won't go around the bend with you, I know that you want to protect those who have not been exposed, and I also understand your mood and thoughts, but I think you are not considering it." Judging from what we have found so far, almost all the high-level members of your secret society are princes of the royal family, county kings, and princes of the country! Me and those brothers outside are just acting on orders, and it doesn't matter much to us whether you hand over the roster or not, but will the higher authorities tolerate that there are still people hiding in your secret society? Will the above worry about these remnants of sin making waves again in the future? Recently, someone in the court has put forward such a suggestion, which is called, 'It is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let go of one'!" ”

When Li Yu heard the last sentence, his body trembled involuntarily, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart, and he suddenly felt chills all over his body.

Tao Jinshui continued: "If you don't hand over the roster, then this matter is definitely not over, the above already knows that the high-level members of your secret society are all members of the royal clan, once the above adopts the suggestion just now, then what awaits the royal clan will be bloody, and there will definitely be people in the court who will take the initiative to stand up and put the royal clan to death, and then countless people will be implicated, regardless of whether they are members of your secret society or not, the entire royal family may be purged, Maybe the name of Li Tang Dynasty will no longer exist! I can tell you very responsibly, don't be lucky, don't try to challenge and test the bottom line of a Ming monarch, the king is also a human being, although he is more rational than most people, but there are also times of anger, with the authority of the regent, if he wants to change the dynasty, no one can stop it, if you don't hand over the roster, it is to leave others with excuses and reasons to make trouble! Using the lives of all the members of this secret society to keep the rest of the royal clan safe is your only choice! ”

Li Yu knelt on the ground with a thud, holding his head with both hands and constantly grabbing his hair, looking extremely painful, no one knew what kind of ideological struggle he was carrying out in his heart at this time, whether to hand over or not?

It seemed that there was no other choice, Li Yu was a very calm, very rational, very clear thinking and quick young man, and when Tao Jinshui had just said the possible consequences if he did not hand over the roster, he already knew that he had no choice.

After a long time, Li Yu slowly got up from the ground, with an indifferent expression, and said: "Count the eighth brick from left to right on the east wall of the underground secret room three feet high, pry open that brick, and the roster is hidden inside!" ”

"You've made a wise choice!" Tao Jinshui breathed a sigh of relief and shouted outside: "Come on, take him out!" ”

A few soldiers walked in and took Li Yu out, Tao Jinshui turned around and approached the underground secret room, pulled out a stone brick according to the position Li Yu said, and reached in and took out a few thick rosters.

These rosters were quickly presented on Zhao Ziliang's imperial case, he looked at the top one, and saw that it read "The Royalist Society's Code", it turned out that the organization that Li Yu secretly created was called the Royalist Society, and it turned page by page to look at the original content of the "Royalist Society's Code" was the organizational structure and form of the Royalist Society and the ultimate purpose of his establishment of this organization. After reading this book, Zhao Ziliang felt a chill rise from the bottom of his heart, it was terrible, this Li Yu actually made the structure of this royalist society so rigorous, set a high goal for it, and it was very inflammatory, I don't know how this guy thought of it.

After reading this book, I will look at several other registers, which not only record the name, gender, date of birth, apparent identity, address, family situation, and names of family members of each person in the Royal Society, but also the affiliation between members, etc.

After reading it, Zhao Ziliang was very glad in his heart, if Li Yu was allowed to develop this royalist society for a few more years, its power would be difficult to estimate, and no one could imagine how far it could develop.

Zhao Ziliang put down the roster and asked, "Where is Li Yu locked up now?" ”

"Locked up in a prison, my lord!" Xuan 18 replied, "Li Yu said that he wanted to see the king, and he wanted to ask the king face to face, I wonder if the king wants to see him?" ”

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said, "Bring him here!" In addition, he sent a decree to the imperial history of Chengtian Jinghei, send him these rosters, and let him arrest people according to the list, if one runs away, he is the only one who asks! ”

"Yes!"
