Chapter 5354 Insidious
“Hahahaha!”
Li Qingyuan laughed wildly, smiling, and two lines of tears flowed from his eyes.
He was so filled with grief and anger that he never imagined that his mother was actually poisoned to death by arsenic.
The eldest lady is the mastermind. Does the master really not know about it? He didn't believe it.
Even if the master of the family did not participate, it would be the default.
My mother, like Cao Jie, died like this without even a drop of water splashing.
He wiped away his tears, strode to the table, looked at Zi Yan and said, "Master Jiang, can you use the dagger for me?"
Zi Yan glanced at Li Qingyuan. , she knew what he wanted to do, but she still agreed.
“Okay.”
Li Qingyuan held the handle of the dagger with both hands, pulled out the dagger from the table, turned around and took a few leaps, and stabbed Nanny Wu who was twitching on the ground with all her strength.
The dagger penetrated deeply into her chest. A string of blood foam came out of Nanny Wu's mouth. She rolled her eyelids and there was no movement.
Li Qingyuan's eyes shed tears involuntarily again. He stood up, wiped his tears vigorously, and said to Zi Yan: "Young Master Jiang, how do you want to cooperate? From now on, I will listen to you, I just want Everyone who harmed my mother will die. "
"Okay, but let me remind you, if you choose to cooperate, you are getting on the ship, and if you want to get off the ship, you are betraying. When we treat traitors, we always prefer to kill the wrong ones rather than let them go. Are you sure? Have you thought about it?" Zi Yan said calmly.
"I have thought about it. My mother was killed by them. The Li family is my enemy. Now I just want them to die." Li Qingyuan said firmly.
"Then I will give you the first task, which is to find out the locations of the supplies that the Li family and the Ji family have recently hoarded, and who roughly handles them." Zi Yan stood up, put his hands behind his back and said: " We are affiliated with the imperial court and represent the official side. There will be someone from the official side to help you with this matter."
Zi Yan took two steps, then turned her palm over and took out a green jade pendant with a twist on it. With many complicated patterns.
"Take this jade pendant and wear it. The person with this jade pendant may be one of our own. You will encounter the secret code again. The secret code will change every three days. Su San will notify you temporarily."< br>
"Without this jade pendant, you can't match the code. Even if you are a big shot in the officialdom, you can't believe it." Zi Yan emphasized again.
After explaining, Zi Yan raised his hand and said: "Li Qingyuan, you can go, Su San, you go and take him back to Li Mansion."
"Young Master Jiang, do you have any other instructions?" Su San asked again carefully. He had now seen how terrifying Zi Yan was, so much so that when he saw Zi Yan, he always had a feeling of fear in his heart. .
This palpitating feeling did not gradually dissipate until he sent Li Qingyuan away from Zuiqingfeng Winery and got into the carriage parked at the door.
After Su San and Li Qingyuan left, Li Dahu ordered people to drag away Grandma Wu’s body and clean up the ground.
"Master Jiang, are you just going to let Li Qingyuan go? Will he betray us?" Li Dahu asked uneasy.
"No, Li Qingyuan will definitely follow us wholeheartedly. Without the power of the court, he cannot take revenge." Zi Yan said lightly.
"Then should we still follow the original arrangement?" Li Dahu asked again.
"Yes, proceed as planned."
......
Three days later, Zi Yan was sitting in the study, writing a letter to Yang Ruoqing in the capital, explaining the four phenomena What was happening in the city, there was a knock on the door. "Come in."
Li Dahu stepped in and said with a joyful expression on his face: "Master Jiang, we have found all the information on the nearby temples and Taoist temples. There are even small temples and Taoist temples in the nearby mountains. There should be nothing missing."
"Bring it here, let me take a look." Zi Yan spread out the letter paper, put down the brush in his hand, and raised his head.
Li Dahu took the thick piece of information in his hand to the desk and handed it to Zi Yan.
Zi Yan raised her hand and flipped through the desktop. There were more than a hundred pages of information, and each page contained information about a temple or Taoist temple.
However, this is certainly not all temples and Taoist temples. Those that are too small have been eliminated.
Because Zi Yan gave Li Dahu a standard in advance, those that met the standard were made into separate materials, and those that were not within the standard were left alone, so there was no need to rush to get them.
There is indeed a large amount of detailed information about Taoist temples, including addresses, main personnel, specialties, and even their industries.
People like Li Dahu are very efficient in handling things. In just three days, they have handled the affairs of the temple properly.
Seven Star Temple, Babao Temple, Guangdu Temple, etc., all kinds of weird names, and even many names are repeated. For example, there are seven or eight Dalin Temples, which are different from each other. The room is not a family.
Zi Yan read page after page. She has a strong ability to filter out information and extract important information. As long as there is something special in it, she can detect it.
But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. She looked around carefully and didn't see anything special in it.
Zi Yan stood up and frowned slightly.
She found that there was something wrong with her thinking. The so-called concern was chaos. When it came to her biological brother, her plan obviously went awry.
"Li Dahu, what was the reason for the young man who knew the swordsmanship of the Blood Sword Sect that you said last time had a conflict with the Ji family?" She was in a hurry last time and didn't ask about this matter in detail. This time I was so busy that I forgot about it.
"He bought rice at the Ji family's grain store. As you know, the Ji family's grain store is short of jins and ounces and sells shoddy goods. Even the measuring instruments used to weigh the rice grains are defective. Wasn't that boy caught on the spot? It was so noisy. He got up. Later, the young man was surrounded by a group of guards and used the swordsmanship of the Blood Sword Sect. I was there at the time and felt that this was not fair, so I made the decision to let him go. As for the compensation, I have no authority and no way. .”
Li Dahu told everything that happened, without any concealment.
Zi Yan was silent, she thought for a while.
Since that young man is counting money on food, he is probably poor. If he wants to live a good life, he must need money.
It is too difficult to find someone in such a large area without specific information, and there are so many so-called temples and Taoist temples. You can’t visit them everywhere. That won’t work. , she doesn’t have that much time.
So, we should change our thinking.
Yes, let him come out on his own initiative and run out on his own instead of looking for him everywhere.
"Li Dahu, you continue to look for the boy, but lately you have been focusing on cooperating with Li Qingyuan and getting things done with the Li family first."
Ziyan has decided to take care of Li Qingyuan. After the incident at home, Li Qingyuan was successfully promoted to the position, and the Li family was used to hold a water and land dojo. At that time, the news was spread everywhere, and anyone who was a monk or a Taoist priest nearby could come and receive money.
