Song Yuanqiao didn't believe that Li Ye would kill him.

The thieves went and came back to attack the mountain village at night, the clan's children were caught in a scuffle, the situation was extremely unfavorable, Li Ye was of high status, and Song Yuanqiao came to meet him, all of this was logical and flawless.

Song Yuanqiao believed that he could kill Li Ye.

He was going to say a few words to Li Ye first, and after letting the other party relax, he would attack and kill him by surprise. If the attack failed, he would have the help of that expert pretending to be a county magistrate, so Li Ye couldn't run away.

However, the facts were completely contrary to Song Yuanqiao's expectations.

Lu Gujian pierced through his abdomen, and Song Yuanqiao completely lost his combat power. His aura and power had already been sapped, and the fear of death flooded him like a tidal wave, making his legs tremble slightly.

But Song Yuanqiao is not dead yet. After all, he is a monk in the Qi refining period. If there is a panacea and timely rescue, there may be no possibility of survival. He turned his head with difficulty, and stretched out his hand to the soapy official: "Save... help me... ... "

Zaoyi Guancha is a middle-aged man with ordinary facial features and an ordinary figure, which makes him very suitable for hiding his true identity. At this time, he was furious: "His Royal Highness, why did you kill someone for no reason?!"

Li Ye shook his head: "Murder for no reason? No, no, it was you who wanted to kill me first."

Zaoyi official said angrily: "We are clearly here to save you, why did we ever want to kill you?"

Li Ye sneered: "Since you came to Luoping Village, you have been trying to kill me, but you just didn't succeed."

The Zaoyi officer was furious: "Why does King An want to spout blood? What purpose do you have in doing this?!"

Li Ye sighed in admiration: "It's unexpected that you can act well—you are not an official of Hu County, but someone from Li Guanshu. Am I wrong?"

The Zaoyi officer was slightly taken aback: "I don't know what you're talking about!"

Li Ye sneered and said, "Before I came here, I investigated the situation in Hu County. With Wang Shilang's help, I was able to find out everything I wanted to know. Most of the officials in Hu County are closely related to Li Guanshu, and Song Yuanqiao is Li Guanshu." relatives... As for you, you were sent by Li Guanshu, right? You pretended to be an official, didn't you come here for me?"

Zaoyi official's eyes flickered for a moment, but he quickly covered it up: "I don't understand Wang An's words!"

"Then say something you can understand—why don't you do it?" Li Ye looked at the other party.

"Because you can't run away!" Zaoyi officer said badly.

Li Ye supported Song Yuanqiao, and let him stand in front of him. He looked at the man in soap: "You are very confident."

The man in soap clothes snorted coldly, flicked his long sleeves, and slapped the old locust tree outside the courtyard casually.

That old locust tree had grown for an unknown number of years. Its trunk was so thick that a person could not hug it, and its branches and leaves were even bigger than a house. However, under the palm of the soap-clothed man, it burst open like tofu.

Leaves and tree scum flew like a cloud and fell to the ground as a carpet.

The assailants, who were fighting with the clan children of various groups, were attracted by the big movement here, and many people rushed over.

The soap-clothed man looked at Li Ye contemptuously, it was the master's look down on the weak: "Should I have confidence in the fifth level of Qi training?"

Li Ye nodded: "In this way, you are really from Xing Guogong. An official in Hu County, how can there be a master at the fifth level of Qi training?"

"So what if it is, so what if it's not?" The man in soap clothes sullenly.

"The two groups of attackers who appeared today are all members of Duke Xing, right?" Li Ye suddenly spoke in a surprising way.

The pupils of the soap-clothed man suddenly constricted: "What did you say?"

Li Ye sneered: "If I'm not wrong, there are no so-called thieves in Niu Shou Mountain. The thieves we saw were just pretending."

The soap-clothed man shook his hands and was about to make a move. He said in a deep voice, "His Royal Highness, are you joking?"

Li Ye became more and more calm, he said slowly: "You don't want to know, how did I know that you and Song Yuanqiao wanted to kill me?"

The soap-clothed man fell silent. The answer to this question was the direct reason why they failed in their actions and were now under the control of others. He was very curious.

He soon realized that the attackers had already rushed towards the small farmyard and were encircling it on all sides, which made him feel a bit settled. Glancing at Song Yuanqiao, the other party's body was trembling all the time, and blood kept dripping down, accumulating in pools in front of his feet. If it wasn't for a monk in the Qi refining period, he might have died already.

A look of worry flashed in the eyes of the soap-clothed man. Although the other party was only a county captain and his cultivation was only at the first level of Qi training, he came from a wealthy family. If Song Yuanqiao died in front of him, the soap-clothed man would have countless troubles.

The soap-clothed man glanced at Li Ye: "I and Song Xianwei have absolutely no intention of harming King An."

Li Ye sneered and said: "You are a master, even if you pretend to be an official, you can't hide your temperament. You really think I am young, and you can't even find this out? There was a fierce battle by the river today. However, I have received too much care. Only Princess Li and I have killed five people... "

"You know that I have defeated Li Yao, and you are afraid of my strength, so you chose to fight in close quarters this time. This guy with a golden round hammer is good at assassination. If Princess Li didn't support him in time today, If I hadn't been proficient in melee combat, he would have succeeded in a sneak attack, and it's the same tonight, if I hadn't been prepared, and with his skill, I would have been unable to react."

Speaking of this, Li Ye sneered: "I know Li Guanshu will not give up, this assessment is an opportunity for him."

Zaoyi officials stared at Li Ye: "What does the attacker's behavior have to do with us?"

Li Ye sneered and said, "I told you, there are no thieves in this mountain. The so-called thieves are all just pretending by you—everything in Luoping Village is just a show."

"Why did the attackers appear in large numbers in Luoping Village? They would only lie in ambush by the river if they knew we would come here in advance. Why did the attackers attack us? If they were thieves in the mountains, without knowing our details, Why do you want to act rashly? And if they know our details, they should understand how much trouble it will be to attack the clan's children, the prince and the princess, and how severe the court's retaliation will be, even if they are going to rise up, they should not There were such strategic mistakes."

"The thieves rebelled, seeking fame and wealth, not death, and the injured attackers by the riverside committed suicide in unison after the teleportation array was activated-this is the behavior of the dead. Not to mention, there is a teleportation array in the wild grass, It's unreasonable at all, and the teleportation array is activated too quickly, if you hadn't made up your mind to escape, how could there be such an arrangement?"

Li Ye shook his head: "There are too many doubts."

Zaoyi official's face turned pale, but he still tried to calm down: "These are just conjectures. Even if the thieves behave abnormally, it cannot be said that others are pretending. We don't know much about the thieves. Who knows what they have?" Conspiracy!"

Li Ye chuckled lightly: "You're right. If it's just like this, I think the attacker is yours. It's too arbitrary. However, the old farmer Song Yuanqiao found in the village is your weakness. Ask the old farmer While talking, I asked Shangguan Qingcheng to pick oranges and trampled on the crops, but the old farmer turned a blind eye... Have you ever planted land? Probably not."

"If not, you should know how much the farmer values the crops. Even if we are honorable, even if Shangguan Qingcheng trampled not much wheat, even if the farmer is not impatient, he will definitely feel heartbroken. How dare you call that old farmer , find out again and let me ask questions?"

Zao Yiguan moved his fingers slightly, and almost couldn't help but shoot Li Ye. He glanced at Song Yuanqiao, but finally held back, and continued to quibble: "King An's imagination is really rich, but you ignore it. A little bit, why are we doing this?"

Li Ye looked at the Zaoyi official: "Of course you have your purpose. This purpose is not difficult to see. You are for the Taoist temple on the mountain, right?"

Zaoyi official's eyes widened suddenly, his face full of disbelief.

Li Ye sighed and said, "I don't know what kind of conflict Li Guanshu has with the Taoist temple on the mountain. But I do know that Li Guanshu wants to get rid of this Taoist temple, but he doesn't have the ability."

"Because of not having this ability, Li Guanshu needs to accuse the Taoist temple of treason to use the power of the court to destroy the Taoist temple. Therefore, from the beginning to the end, there were no thieves who harmed the village. This is just what you gave the Taoist temple. frame."

"After the framing is over, someone has to come and convict the Taoist temple. Li Guanshu is very powerful in the court, so he made some operations to let us investigate this case. This is really a wonderful arrangement. Because we, the clan children, are involved It’s not deep, and I haven’t been out of Chang’an much before, without the tempering of worldly affairs, whether it’s heart or intelligence, it’s relatively simple.”

"When we were ambushed in Luoping Village, we were bound to be angry and hated the thieves. After investigating in the village and knowing the 'identity' of the attacker, we would not suspect anything, only thinking of revenge and meritorious service Passed the assessment, so I wouldn't think too much about it, and Niu Shou Mountain Taoist Temple's status as a rogue has just been confirmed."

The muscles on Zaoyi's face twitched. He took a deep breath and looked at Li Ye with suspicion: "But Princess Li and the others have already gone to the Taoist temple. If this is true, they will find out."

Li Ye smiled: "So you arranged the attack tonight. If I expected it to be correct, you have already contacted Princess Li and the others through Yujian, and asked them to return to help quickly, right? So Princess Li and the others , can’t reach the Taoist temple at all.”

"And after tonight's attack, we are bound to be more frightened by the thieves, and dare not go to the Taoist temple again, not to mention, a prince died here... So the clan children, will leave quickly to avoid falling into a deeper crisis Princess Li saw that I was dead, even if she didn't lose all hope, she would never want to go to the Taoist temple again, and Li Jing'an would not be alone in danger without Princess Li's company."

The Zaoyi officer was dumbfounded, and looked at Li Ye as if he was looking at a monster: "You...you even thought of all this?"

"Why, you admit it now?" Li Ye smiled, "The recruiting was pretty quick."

The Zaoyi officer pulled out his long sword, "It doesn't matter if I admit it, as long as I kill you, no one will know about it. Previously, the seven people joined forces to attack. It is best to kill you, but if we can't kill you, we will do it now. It’s just that a few more people died.”

"Song Yuanqiao is in my hands. I observed it just now. You are very concerned about him, that's why you haven't done anything. If I'm right, your status is low and you don't dare to let Song Yuanqiao die in front of you. You have to do it now." ?” Li Ye looked wary.

The Zaoyi official sneered: "Now that things are going on, your life is more important than his."

"In this way, your conspiracy this time can be summed up in two aspects. One is to frame Niu Shou Mountain Taoist Temple; the other is to kill me by the way." Li Ye looked at the Zaoyi officer and said seriously: "But I'll run, you can't kill me."

The Zaoyi official said contemptuously: "The reason why I waited so long is because I was concerned about your strength. You should have the means to suppress the bottom of the box if you can defeat Mr. Yao. But now, people outside the courtyard have surrounded this place tightly, so You can't escape with your wings!"

"Okay!" Li Ye exclaimed, "But how do you know that I'm not just delaying the time by talking to you so much?"

"You're procrastinating..." The Zaoyi officer wanted to say that you were a fart for procrastinating, but in the middle of the sentence, his face suddenly changed, "You..."

"It seems that you have figured it out. Obviously, I have thought of what I just told you a long time ago, so this afternoon, I also explained the matter to Princess Li through the Yujian, and they got it After hearing my news, is there any reason to go to Niu Shou Mountain Taoist Temple?" Li Ye's eyes were teasing.

"They're back already?" Zaoyi officer took a step back, looked left and right, uncertain.

"Not only are you back, but my communication jade slip has been open all the time." Li Ye smiled even more, "They also heard your conversation with me, and this is your criminal evidence. So, from now on, Not only you have to finish, Li Guanshu has to finish too!"
