Datang: Get Xiang Yu's divine power at the beginning

Chapter 290
As Li Chengdao said, Qinglong quickly rolled up his sleeves, untied the dense cloth strips tied around his arms, and took out a piece of soft yellow silk and handed it to Li Chengdao.

Li Chengdao opened it, and after a while, he said with a smile: "This secret decree came in time! With this secret decree, we can let go of our hands and feet!"

After finishing speaking, Li Chengdao put the secret decree in his arms and ordered Qinglong to send Suzaku and Gan Ning. Seeing that there were no outsiders in the house, Li Chengdao secretly ordered Zheng Baihu to investigate the crimes of Longshanwei, intending to arrest the commander of Longshanwei and The guarding eunuch revealed all his plans.

Hearing this, Gan Ning laughed softly and said, "Your Highness has far-sighted plans. This trip to Suzhou is very dynamic. Even if they had some doubts, they must have lost their guard. In addition, His Highness first checked Hangzhou, and Yuan Ziwei would definitely think that His Highness The key point is on Lu Zicong, what a trick to cover Chen Cang in the dark!"

"Bangchui, how has Yuan Ziwei been doing these past few days?"

"His Royal Highness, I heard from Mr. Zheng that Yuan Ziwei has been very honest these past few days. Forty percent of the privately set tax cards have been suspended, and people are nestling at home every day, almost staying at home!"

"Humph!" Li Chengdao snorted and said, "I'm afraid that as soon as I leave, he will keep his money and lose money in the past few days, and he will get back double from the people. But then again, he has been indifferent to him." It will inevitably make him suspicious, Qinglong, let me know that after five days, this king will go to Longshan Guard for inspection!"

Hearing this, Qinglong nodded in agreement, Gan Ning smiled knowingly, and said: "In this way, the last general will have to go back, Your Highness will give you this reassurance, and I guarantee that he will stay at home and wait for His Highness for the next five days, but Your Highness, when shall we do it?"

Li Chengdao heard the words, thought for a while, and said: "Since it is a reassurance, you might as well feed him more and let the wind out. Starting tomorrow, the king will entertain local officials and gentlemen for three days. Go out to sea to suppress bandits, big stick and hammer, you should go back to Zheng Baihu, Qinglong, you go to Haining overnight, change your plan slightly, Hu Qianhu’s military power does not need to be taken away, this person seems to be still available, but Qinglong also This person must be strictly monitored. Three days later, on the fourth watch, we will send Hao Jingzhong and Yuan Ziwei a magic soldier!"

The long streets and alleys in the south of the Yangtze River are like a talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River. At first glance, she is very beautiful, but no matter how many times you pass by her, you still can't understand the secret behind the beauty and mystery.

As soon as you enter the alley, it is like stepping through the world of mortals all of a sudden, and entering an old dream of smoke and rain. The elegance and tranquility make people slow down a lot.

Li Chengdao and Suzaku, dressed as literati, walked slowly into the alley on the bluestone road. The afternoon sun shone on the eaves on both sides. On both sides of the alley, houses with gray tiles and white walls stood quietly. .The gray tiles have weathered the wind and rain, showing a vicissitudes of darkness.

The alley is already quiet, and the occasional pedestrians passing by are also leisurely and lazy.Li Chengdao and Suzaku were surrounded by four Jinyi guards, in plain clothes, about ten steps away from them, carefully watching the passers-by, and opening the way for them.

The two walked for a while without feeling tired. When they saw a restaurant not far away, Li Chengdao suddenly became interested and proposed to go up and sit down.

Among the crowd, there is only such a master. Since he opened his mouth, who would refuse so ignorantly?

The four fans in front entered the restaurant first, and soon one fan looked out of the second floor window and made a gesture. Seeing this, Suzaku stretched out his hand, and Li Chengdao naturally entered the restaurant.

Li Chengdao and Suzaku sat at the same table, ordered a few dishes of light dishes, and ordered a jug of rice wine, and then began to drink in the lotus pond outside the window and the beauty on the opposite side. Suddenly, Li Chengdao's eyes froze.

Suzaku looked at Li Chengdao, Li Chengdao pointed out the window, followed the direction Li Chengdao pointed, Suzaku looked, and saw a small boat with a canopy drifting leisurely on a slowly flowing small river, and the man on the canopy boat was a young man with a naive appearance. Strong and strong, looking at the child from above, he suddenly saw a huge purple-red sarcoma growing on the side of his neck. Looking closely, one's scalp could not help but feel numb.

At this time, the child stood up and shouted into the bird canopy boat: "Father, when will Mommy come back from other places? She promised to bring me delicious food. Why hasn't there been any news for three months?"

At this time, a male voice said with a chuckle: "You child, why are you so greedy? Such an old child should be sensible. Your mother is so tired of working in Suzhou Zhifang. It is not easy to earn money. Don't pester me all the time. She bought you something to eat!"

Li Chengdao's head banged. Isn't this child fatherless and motherless?Lu Zicong's words that day echoed in his ears like thunder. Looking at the bird-canopied boat getting further away, Li Chengdao kept asking why?Why did Lu Zicong lie to me?It was just that he took in a child on the road. I also mentioned that I wanted to see these children, so he found the child to lie to me?Why is he afraid that I will become suspicious?
Li Chengdao woke up suddenly, and with a wave of his hand, two people who were close to him had already stepped forward. Li Chengdao ordered in a low voice: "The bird canopy boat just now, the child with the sarcoma on the neck, follow up, and find out who he is." Come back and report everything to me!"

The two sons responded, turned around and ran out of the restaurant, Suzaku looked at Li Chengdao suspiciously, when Li Chengdao saw this, he explained the matter, Suzaku asked doubtfully: "Did your Highness say that among the three guarding eunuchs, Lu Zicong is known as a good man?" Name? Why... Could it be that he abducted and sold those children to others?"

Hearing this, Li Chengdao shook his head lightly, and said, "Although this Lu Zicong is not as exploitative as Yuan Ziwei and Li Wenxiang, he is in charge of food and tea taxes, and he is earning a lot of money every day. Why bother abducting and selling children?"

"why?"

Suzaku was puzzled, and Li Chengdao was also full of doubts, and said: "That's the problem. It stands to reason that he doesn't need to count those orphans, but now it seems that the adoption of children he mentioned is indeed strange, Suzaku, you know, The more you try to hide these small things, there must be a big problem hidden behind it, and this matter must be clarified!"

On the second day, His Royal Highness King Wu began to invite Hangzhou gentry, celebrities and officials. King Wu personally acted as the host, and invited the prefect of Hangzhou and the eunuch Lu Zicong to accompany him, and held a large banquet at the fish watching place in Huagang.

The appeal of the three people can be imagined. All the gentry and celebrities in Hangzhou gathered together and responded to the call.

During the banquet, Li Chengdao was even more joyful, raising his glass to toast frequently, listening to everyone's flattering words, Li Chengdao's complexion was slightly red, and occasionally someone asked about the itinerary, Li Chengdao said that he would go back home after the inspection of Longshanwei was over. Set up a banquet in advance to thank Hangzhou celebrities for their hospitality.

During the toast, Li Chengdao suddenly noticed that someone was winking at him. He took a closer look and found out that it was the person he sent to find out about the boy yesterday.
