Xiaohong disappeared. Not only did Li Yi make arrangements at Goulan, but he also greeted the county government and even the secret spy department. Several parties had already acted quickly. All they could do now was wait.
Did not wait for the news, but soon Liu Yishou came.
"A traitor has emerged from the Secret Service." Liu Yi's face sank into water, and he said slowly, "When we brought people there, there were no traces inside, only a few servants of the Qin family, but they were caught by the other party. After all, it is the residence of an important minister in the court, so things are a bit troublesome."
Li Yi looked at him and asked, "Didn't you find any clues?"
Liu Yishou shook his head, "Overnight, it was enough for them to transfer the person away. The other clues are not enough to be used as evidence. There are people watching around, no suspicious person coming in and out. There should be a secret passage inside, but we haven't searched it yet. reason."
"What about the traitor?" Li Yi asked.
"He committed suicide." Liu Yishou shook his head and said, "That man has been in the Secret Service for nearly twenty years, when he was found, he bit the poisonous sac and didn't say a word. "
"I see." Li Yi nodded, and asked again: "Do you know which ones belong to the carriages that go in and out there on weekdays?"
"There are records." Liu Yishou responded, raised his head again, and said, "But my lord, it may be difficult to form evidence based on these alone. Besides, those people are all dignitaries in the capital, and their identities are aloof..."
Li Yi waved his hand: "This is enough."
The secret agent has a special status in the court, but when encountering these things, there will still be some troubles, and Liu Yishou should have some headaches in the future.
Breaking into private houses is not a big deal in other places, but here is the capital, and everything must follow the law, not to mention that the court reformed the law not long ago against the opposition of countless dignitaries, secret agents broke into official houses, If the imperial court favored them, it would undoubtedly be contradictory, and it would give those people a reason that something more serious might happen.
To be honest, even Li Yi himself did not expect that they would be able to insert people in the secret spy department. It has to be said that he had underestimated the Cui family before.
This time Liu returned without success, they will definitely be more careful, and even stop all actions. It will become very difficult to collect evidence through normal channels.

In the end, Li Yi still didn't keep the purple clay pot.
"No one found it?" The sloppy old man slapped the new table with his palm, and the table shattered, and the purple clay pot on it fell to the ground, breaking into several pieces.
"Are they playing old man?" The anger on the sloppy old man's face didn't last long, he soon smiled, stroked his beard, and murmured: "Interesting, interesting, I haven't encountered such an interesting thing in many years... "
The smile on his face looked like a kind elder, but the maid who came in to clean up the mess couldn't help shivering, feeling a little chilly all over her body, and the movements of her hands were a little faster...
…
Cui family.
Cui Qingming sighed, and said: "It's a pity, in the past twenty years, there is only one dark man left in the secret spy department, and now, there is no one..."
A person beside him comforted: "Second brother, don't sigh. As the saying goes, you can only gain if you give up. Although you lost that secret, it is not a small crime for the secret agent to break into the official residence at will. The court reformed it by itself. You can't overthrow the law by yourself... With that Liu in hand, we can hardly get in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, if we remove him, it will be much more convenient to do things in the future."
Cui Qingming nodded, and said: "Let them be prepared, this time, if they don't completely pull Liu Yishou down, they will never give up!"
For Liu Yishou, the Cui family hates Liu Yishou deeply. It was because of his meddling in the beginning that all their arrangements and arrangements for the Chu family were reduced to ashes. Arm, if this matter involves the Qin family and those people again, they will really come to the point where they are at the end of their rope.
At this point in the matter, they almost understood that it would be impossible for His Majesty to issue an order to recall His Highness the King of Shu, but if the status quo was maintained, it would be a good thing for them.
Once His Majesty passes away, with the position of the East Palace vacant, who else is more suitable for this position than the King of Shu in terms of status
If that time really comes, their actions will become much simpler.
Cui Qingming showed a mocking smile on his face, and said, "I really want to see with my own eyes, what is the expression of that Li County Marquis now?"
Li Yi was naturally anxious, but it wasn't because of the Secret Service.
As long as you know the facts, the evidence doesn't matter.
What he was worried about was that if something really happened to Xiao Hong, Lao Fang's family would be ruined, but Gou Lan and the government are not omnipotent, and it takes time to find clues. Wait here.
Some members of the Cui family were equally anxious.
"My lord, I have asked about the front and back doors. No strange woman came in or out. That woman must be hiding somewhere in the mansion. If you look hard, you will be able to find it!"
Qin Yu gave him a cold look: "I'm not going to look for it yet, the whole house will look for it room by room!"
The servant was startled, and asked again: "One room at a time, the Prime Minister and several masters..."
Qin Yu kicked over, "Except for those few, I won't let anyone go!"
In the Qin Mansion, in a remote and messy woodshed, a woman looked at the figure covered in a black cloak and said gratefully, "Thank you benefactor for saving me."
"Little Hong girl, why are you here?" A hoarse voice came from the black robe, and it was not difficult to identify it as a female voice.
"I was arrested by them." The woman replied, and then realized something, and asked in shock: "You, how do you know my name is Xiaohong?"
The man in black put down the hood of his cloak. It was an ordinary-looking woman, except for a long scar on her face, which looked a little scary.
The woman looked at her and said, "I used to follow Uncle Fang and the others down the mountain, and I met you on the road."
The expression on Xiaohong's face was a little excited, she grabbed her sleeve and asked, "You, do you know Brother Fang?"
The woman with the long scar on her face didn't answer the question, but looked at her and said, "This place is very remote, they can't find it here, so you hide here first, I'll find a way to spread the news."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door.
The woman's complexion changed, and she hurriedly let Xiaohong hide in a large vat, threw her black cloak into it, carried a bundle of firewood, walked to the door, and asked: "Who is it, the firewood hasn't been arranged yet, wait one time… "
A rough voice came from outside the door: "Open the door, the community will send warmth."
