Chapter 307: The Past Hides Mysteries
The injured Daoist and Hong Yan glanced at each other, he frowned, and sneered, "'Xuanbing Gu Worm'? It's ridiculous, how can there be such a bug in this world? I think you're talking nonsense, right? ”
Li Canghai smiled slightly, he didn't answer the injured Taoist, but stared at Hongyan and said lightly: "Whether it's true or not, Hongyan girl knows in her heart." Miss Hongyan, the only thing you designed to kill the people of the Gopher Gate and the emperor Fu is that I don't need to make any more statements, right? ”
Hong Yan looked at Li Canghai with a solemn face and pursed his lips.
"Li Canghai, I have some doubts, what does this have to do with their rebellion?" Li Longji touched his beard and asked puzzled.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, and listen to the arrival of Weichen one by one!" Li Canghai saluted slightly to Li Longji and said: "If the people of the Gopher Gate sneaked into the Di Mansion to find the treasure and were killed, and the son of General Huangfu died of jealousy, then the official of Zhengyang County died without any reason. It wasn't until I went to Luofengji later that I learned the real reason for the deaths of several people. ”
"What is the reason?" The injured Daoist's face turned cold, although he knew it, he still had to ask, he had to judge in turn how much Li Canghai knew about them, so that he could make a judgment.
"Because they all drank the same kind of wine, this kind of wine is produced in Luofengji Distillery, and the difference from other drinks is that there is a 'Xuanbing Gu Worm' hidden in this wine. And the gopher gate people and the sons of the general Huangfu, and even the officials of Zhengyang County, the reason why they were killed was because they went to the winery at the beginning of the winemaking, and you killed people for fear of leaking the secret! Hung Blessing Girl. I'm not wrong, am I? Li Canghai's tone suddenly became stern.
"Gu worms? Hahaha...... Gu worms in wine? It's ridiculous, if there are real bugs in the wine. And how can no one find out? The injured Taoist laughed on the surface, but in fact, his eyes flashed with a fierce smile and smiled.
"'Xuanbing Gu Worm' is a very peculiar Gu worm. When dormant, it is very small, but when it wakes up, it immediately sucks flesh and blood, instantly increasing in size. Li Canghai's brows tightened, and he stared at Hongyan and said: "For this kind of Gu worm, Miss Hongyan must be more familiar to me, she is from Miao Jiang, isn't it easy to hide Gu worms?" ”
The wild goose is beautiful and frowning. Still silent.
I heard Li Canghai continue: "Although I have found the murderer, and I know that you are looking for the 'Treasure of the Martial Emperor', I know that it is not your real goal. ”
"Oh? Why? There was more solemnity in the eyes of the injured Taoist.
"Because there is no direct connection between you making poisoned wine and finding treasure. If anything, it is that you inadvertently used poisoned wine to get rid of the gopher men who were also looking for treasure. Therefore, I conclude that you have other plans for brewing poisoned wine! Li Canghai said loudly.
"Oh? I would like to ask you, what is the purpose of our winemaking? The injured Taoist snorted, stared at him and asked.
"Actually, when Luo Fengji heard that General Huangfu said about the emperor's eastern tour. I have a vague feeling that your target is likely to be His Majesty the Emperor. Therefore, I made a plan with General Huangfu and asked Liang Xiu to take the initiative to explain his identity, and he had already taken refuge in the 'Reverse Scale Xuanwu' because of his love for his concubine. I wanted him to take the initiative to explain their purpose. However, Liang Xiu was taken away by Liu Tong, and then the news of his suicide in fear of crime came out, so that everything returned to the original point. Li Canghai glared at Liu Tong. Said unhappily.
Liu Tong is a shrewd person, and the injured Taoist and others were recommended by him. Now he wants to rebel, in order to get rid of the relationship. He stood on Li Longji's side as soon as possible, and swore that he would always be loyal to Li Longji with tears in his eyes.
Although Li Longji wanted to cut him in his heart. But after all, he was in danger, and there were not many people around him, so he had to forcibly suppress the anger in his heart.
Li Canghai is now on the order of the emperor to solve this matter, it can be said that he has the power of life and death, how can he not be careful?
"What Master Li taught me is that it is all the fault of the lower officials, it is the lower officials who are not optimistic about Liang Xiu, and the lower officials are guilty." Liu Tong saluted him again and again, his face full of nervousness and embarrassment.
Li Canghai glanced at him, flicked his sleeves unhappily, and then said: "After Liang Xiu's death, I was transferred to Zhengyang County, but the 'Reverse Scale Xuanwu' seemed to have never existed, and disappeared without a trace. ”
"What horse's feet?" The injured Daoist didn't speak, but Hong Yan asked.
"When I was plugging the barrage, two very important things happened that gave me the hints." Li Canghai stretched out two fingers and said.
"What two things? I would like to hear about it. The injured Taoist frowned.
Li Canghai shook his fingers and said solemnly: "First, when the Yellow River breach was blocked, someone poisoned the food of the people fighting the flood, causing the people to lose the power to act, and their purpose was not to want the people to block the breach. ”
After sighing, Li Canghai continued: "Then, when I was plugging the leak, I was assassinated, and the assassin was the evil official steward of Zhengyang County. Fortunately, God blessed Zhengyang, the breach was finally blocked, and the butler died Hongtao, and when I examined his body afterwards, I found a tattoo on his body, and I instantly understood that he was a person who was 'anti-scale Xuanwu'. ”
"You mean, 'Reverse Scale Xuanwu' they sent an undercover agent to hide in Zhengyang, the purpose is to assassinate you?" Yang Guozhong asked.
Li Canghai shook his head: "Killing me is just taking advantage of the situation, their real purpose is to prevent the Yellow River from being blocked." ”
The more people listened, the more confused they felt, and the more puzzled they became.
The injured Taoist and the others had a slight change in their faces, and the injured Taoist pretended to shake off the dust indifferently, and said: "The Yellow River burst is a disaster from heaven, you said that we sent people undercover in Zhengyang, just to prevent the imperial court from blocking the Yellow River breach, it's just nonsense!" The flooding of the Yellow River is providential, so how do we know that the Yellow River will burst its banks? So send someone to go undercover in advance for Zhengyang? ”
Li Canghai's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stared at the injured Taoist: "When did I say that you sent someone undercover to Zhengyang 'in advance'?" ”
The injured Taoist was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he had missed his mouth, so he hurriedly waved the dust, pretending to be light-hearted.
Li Canghai sneered, squinted at him, and didn't dwell on this topic more, but continued: "When it comes to their true purpose, it involves the second thing - the Broken Dragon Monument!" ”
"Broken Dragon Monument?" Li Longji frowned, he didn't like this name very much, especially the words circulating on the stone tablet, which made him extremely angry.
I heard Li Canghai continue: "This stele was found when I led the people to plug the leakage, and the stele is engraved with a small seal, which is a stone stele of the Qin Dynasty from the material point of view, but it is the specific time when the Yellow River burst its embankment.
