Li Xuancheng was already dizzy with anger, but he heard the guest smile at the shopkeeper: "Oh, I didn't expect our uncle Guo to have such a habit. It's the first time I've heard of it. However, I heard that Another anecdote about him, do you know?"
The shopkeeper asked, "What's the matter?"
The guest said: "Our uncle of the country believes in the magic of immortals, you know that?"
The shopkeeper said: "Oh, I've heard about it. I heard that when Uncle Guo was in Beijing, he often communicated with some Taoist priests."
The guest said: "Hey, it would be all right if he only associates with Taoist priests. But our country uncle believes in heretics. I don't know which demon Taoist he learned from. He only wants to practice immortality." Dan, guess what he used to practice his immortality pill?"
"what?"
The voices of the two people's conversations were getting quieter and mysterious. Li Xuancheng pricked up his ears, turned his body sideways, and tried to catch the two people's words. Blood Pill", "Oh, it's so dirty, how can I eat it!"
Although Li Xuancheng listened intermittently, he also understood what they were talking about. Uncle Li Guo stood up in a fit of anger, rushing up against his blood, and felt gold stars flashing in front of him, his body shook, and he couldn't stand for a while. Steady, sat down again.
The shopkeeper heard the movement here, greeted him, and said with a smile: "Young master, don't worry, the guys will be ready in a while."
Li Xuancheng wanted to come forward to argue, but he also understood that these two people had clearly heard rumors from other places, so what would be the result of his family going forward to argue with them. Even if they revealed their identities and made them kneel and clap their hands in fright, there might be another weird and unsettling anecdote someday.
Li Xuancheng suppressed his anger and sat there, listening to the shopkeeper and the customer passing all kinds of unbelievable rumors to each other as if nothing happened. It was not easy until the guys got ready with their chariots and horses and came in to carry the stone, Li Xuancheng just stood up with relief, and followed the guys out as if fleeing.
When Li Xuancheng returned to the Marquis of Zhenyuan, he didn't care about the stone, so he invited Mr. Gu and told him the rumors he had heard at the jade shop today. During the speech, Li Xuancheng's face turned pale again. His lips were trembling.
Gu Sanye said angrily: "Who is this who spread rumors to slander Uncle Guo? It's really unreasonable!"
Uncle Li Guo said angrily: "Third Master, what do you think should be done about this matter? It is tolerable to slander the royal family and slander Li so viciously! The person responsible will be punished severely!"
"Oh, absolutely not!"
Li Xuancheng has always been aloof, and has someone to take care of everything for him. He is leisurely and carefree on weekdays, and looks like he is in control of everything. He doesn't know that once something really happens, he gets messed up and doesn't know how to deal with it. Gu Sanye was well aware of the power of it, so he hurriedly spoke out to stop it.
Gu Sanye said: "Uncle Guo, I don't know who spread this rumor. Even if you repay Ying Tianfu, you don't want to get the person who fabricated the rumor. What's the use of arresting a few people and things who believe in rumors and spread rumors? This matter Once the incident becomes serious and the rumors spread wildly, many people who don't know about it will hear about it, and then the uncle Guo's face will be even more ugly."
Li Xuancheng said furiously: "Could it be that I just suffered from being dumb, so forget it?"
Gu Sanye said helplessly: "Uncle Guo, the pure will be clear, and the turbid will be turbid..."
Li Xuancheng flicked his sleeves angrily, and said: "This is self-deception! Who knows that people's mouths can make money and accumulate money, if they are allowed to slander wantonly, what will be the face of my country's uncle? Even the royal face will be lost because of it." Already!"
Gu Sanye said with a bitter face: "Uncle Guo, it's better to be still than to move. If you ignore it, after a few days, this novelty will pass, and no one will mention it."
Li Xuancheng said angrily: "How can Li turn a deaf ear to such rumors. No, I will go to Yingtian Mansion right away, and I will definitely find out the real culprit who spread the rumors and bring him to justice, so that the hatred in my heart will be relieved!"
"Uncle Guo..." Before Gu Sanye could say a word, Li Xuancheng had already left in a hurry. Gu Sanye looked at Li Xuancheng's back and shook his head slightly. He had already foreseen what would happen next, how unbearable it would be.
Li Guojiu angrily ran to Yingtian Mansion to beat the drums to file a complaint. Yin Xiao Shiqi of Yingtian Mansion walked up to the lobby. He watched the seat and asked him attentively about his intentions.
When Uncle Li Guo explained the reason, Xiao Shiqi couldn't help shaking his head. Fatty Xiao first helped Uncle Li to denounce the rumour-monger angrily, and then advised Uncle Li to calm down and keep things unchanged, and when the rumors subsided automatically, Li Guo Uncle is not willing to listen, and insists on asking him to investigate the case.
Xiao Shiqi had no choice but to call the third squad of arresters, and gave such and such orders in front of Uncle Li Guo. The arresters couldn't help but look at each other after hearing Ying Tianfu Yin's order: "Catch those who spread rumors? Where to catch them, you can't see someone whispering on the street, so you can go to listen to what they say?"
But Uncle Guo was sitting there with a livid face, and Mr. Fu Yin gave orders in a serious manner, so the arresters had no choice but to agree, and when they led the arresters to the streets and alleys, there was nothing related to Li Guo. Uncle's rumors were like a cesspit that had been exposed to the hot sun for three days was picked up and opened, and the stench was suffocating for a while.
Uncle Li Guo was very naive. He thought that as long as the power of the government was used, there would be nothing that could not be solved. However, he didn’t know that no matter how big the government was, it couldn’t control the tongues of ordinary people. In order to make it public, not only the common people talked about it, but even the officials spread it in a similar manner.
Some people said that Uncle Li Guo was licentious and tyrannical. He often had fun with prostitutes in his mansion, where men and women mixed together, and everyone was naked, but those who disobeyed were killed under the stick.
Some people say that Uncle Li Guo likes to hunt, but he is afraid of hardships and dangers, and dare not go deep into the mountain forests, so he rides horses in the fields, tramples on seedlings, and treats farmers in the fields as beasts, shooting and hunting for fun.
Some people say that Li Guojiu likes to eat the livers and brains of living people, and he often waits for people passing by his door in the evening, waiting for the opportunity to lure them into the mansion, kill them and eat them. Therefore, the gate of the uncle's mansion was cut off in the afternoon, and everyone in Beijing knew about it.
Others said that Uncle Li Guo was pampered and spoiled since he was a child, and he has not been weaned until he is so old. There are dozens of nannies in the house, who drink three bowls of human milk every day.
Soon, Uncle Li Guo, who was in a state of desperation, was charged with such absurd crimes as lewdness, lust, absurdity, rape of a maid, love of Longyang, disregard for human life, eating human brains, occupying houses, and practicing alchemy with blood. In the eyes of the world, Uncle Li Guo has become a goblin who has been cultivated to become a spirit.
At this time, Qiao Naihe Qiao Yushi’s memorial to impeach Li Guojiu was also sent to the imperial court. Qiao Yushi used Mingfa’s memorial and sent it to the capital through the Jinling General Administration Department. The memorial has not yet been sent to the capital. It first spread in Jinling official circles, so Uncle Li Guo added two more charges: "Riding a horse and injuring a person, and beating an officer!"
Uncle Li Guo was being scolded to the brim, when he suddenly heard that a censor impeached him for riding horses, wounding people, and beating court officials. that's it.
However, as soon as the Daoist Memorial came out, it suddenly gave Uncle Li Guo a revelation. He had never had any enemies in Jinling. If there was one, Ye Xiaotian was the only one.
Logically speaking, Ye Xiaotian shouldn't be his enemy, because he wanted to plot against Ye Xiaotian, but Ye Xiaotian didn't know it, so there was no reason to deal with him in reverse. But apart from Ye Xiaotian, others are even more impossible.
Until now, Uncle Li Guo recalled Guan Xiaokun's extremely indifferent expression towards him when he left Jinling City, and Xu Qiyun and Rui Qingxing's deliberate alienation towards him, Li Xuancheng couldn't help thinking: "Could it be that Ye Xiaotian already knew that I dealt with him? "
When Li Xuancheng didn't suspect Ye Xiaotian, he didn't think that Ye Xiaotian had a ghost, but now that he was suspicious of Ye Xiaotian, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that such a shameless trick was only made by that stingy Ye Xiaotian.
Uncle Li Guo was almost driven crazy by those rumors, he was still the calm and dignified Li Xuancheng back then, once he suspected Ye Xiaotian, he wished to find out immediately. Immediately, he ordered people to prepare horses and went straight to the Huitong Hall.
Li Xuancheng didn't know about meeting others, so he left Zhenyuanhou's mansion alone, rushed to the gate of Huitong Hall, swung the stirrup off the saddle and dismounted the horse, ignored the horse, flicked the rein of the horse, and entered the gate in a hurry.
Since the envoys from the Kezhi Kingdom went to Beijing, the huitong hall fell silent again. The idle handyman Lao Wang didn't finish sweeping the courtyard until near noon. Under the sun, the slanting sun shines on the body, warm and drowsy.
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from next to my ear: "Let me ask you, where is Ye Xiaotian?"
Old Wang, who was wandering away, opened his eyes in a daze, and saw a young man in a moon-white robe, jade crown and hair, with a cold temperament, holding a horsewhip in his hand, staring at him aggressively.
Li Xuancheng had been to the hall several times, but the old Wang was a handyman and was not qualified to be in front of this royal relative, so he did not recognize him. But Lao Wang could see that this young master was not an ordinary person, so he hurriedly stood up from the creaking broken rattan chair, and said with a smile: "This young master, Ambassador Ye lives in the third entrance, Jiuzhao the main room .”
Li Xuancheng asked coldly: "Is he here?"
Old Wang was stunned, and replied embarrassingly: "This... the little one doesn't know. The little one just sweeps the yard and basks in the sun here. I don't know the ambassador..." Before he finished speaking, Li Xuancheng had already strode straight to the backyard.
This Huitong Hall is a courtyard house with five front and back entrances. The house for accommodation is facing the front, and the two sides are wings. Each room has nine rooms. One bright and two dark are a living unit, and three units are connected into one room, a total of nine rooms. It is Jiuzhao and Jiuxiang.
The second courtyard is the banquet hall, which is seven rooms wide and has two side rooms on the left and right. It is here that Minister Lin hosted a banquet for Prime Minister Ke Zhi a few days ago. The third courtyard house is the best built. When Prime Minister Ke Zhi was here, he lived here. Now that Prime Minister Ke Zhi has gone to the capital, the hall has become deserted again. Ye Xiaotian took this courtyard as a place for him and Ninger , Yunfei and others' residence.
Li Xuancheng aggressively rushed to the third courtyard, looked around, saw that the courtyard was empty, and shouted loudly: "Ye Xiaotian, come out for me!"
A girl's voice in the main room said lazily: "Who is looking for Brother Xiaotian?"
Li Xuancheng took two steps forward and said loudly: "Who are you, Ye Xiaotian?"
The girl in the room said: "Who is it, who is yelling, come in and say something!"
Li Xuancheng snorted coldly, then strode in.
