He was nagging in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud. After all, what Li Chengqian did was for the stability of the Tang Dynasty.
Returning an explanation to the people of the world, and at the same time sounding the alarm to all the officials in the world.
Li Shimin stared at Feng Deyi, and said in a deep voice: "If these corrupt officials are not killed, what's the use of keeping them!"
Although he was unhappy, he still chose to stand by Li Chengqian.
After all, in his heart, the eternal life is important, and the common people in the world are equally important.
Li Shimin does not have such ambition, nor does he have the heart to love the people like a child.
He won't succeed to the throne for so long, and he hasn't even built a palace.
Immediately afterwards, Li Shimin said angrily.
"Do you think that this shocking decay is a special case! No, this is a common phenomenon in all states of Tang Dynasty.
I always think that the biggest threat to the Tang Dynasty is the enemy countries around.
But now it seems that the threat of Datang is not outside, but inside, all the officials in my country of Tang.
The corruption of officials is the root cause of our Tang Dynasty's extinction.
The people's deprivation is the source of the destruction of a dynasty.
The money and food for disaster relief in the four states of Henan Province were corrupted, and the mastermind behind it.
It turned out to be my great contribution to the founding of the Tang Dynasty.This man is in the city of Chang'an, right above my court. "
In the end, Li Shimin's words became calmer, and he almost couldn't bring up the anger in his heart.
A sense of fatigue flooded into his heart instantly.
After the words fell, there was an uproar in the hall.
"Why...how is this? The mastermind behind the scenes is in the court..."
"Sigh, under the glamorous appearance of my Tang Dynasty, there are so many corruptions buried..."
"Who is it? If my old Cheng finds out, I must kill him with an ax..."
Civil and military officials, every word you say, and what I say, are full of grief and indignation.
Li Shimin waved his hand, "You are here, think about it carefully, think about whether you are really dedicated to the country and society of the Tang Dynasty."
"Is it because of the great achievements I have made, and now I control the power, I lost myself and became corrupt."
"I'm a little tired, you can give it to me here, think about it."
After Li Shimin finished speaking, he turned around and left the court hall, his back was a bit bleak.
In fact, Li Chengqian didn't tell him who this person was. Although he had clues, he didn't have enough evidence yet.
But Li Shimin is not a fool, he has expected this matter.
It is impossible for someone who is not holding a lot of power and is in a high position to have such a great energy.
……
Henan Road.
Songzhou City...
Governor's Mansion...
Li Chengqian sat in the gazebo in the garden, flipping through the files.
After several days of investigation, a name gradually surfaced, Zhang Chengwen.
All the high-ranking officials who were corrupt and perverted the law in the disaster-stricken states could find out their inextricable relationship with him.
Although this person is not an official, he has tremendous energy in Henan Province.
Everyone knows that there is a big man behind him, and there is a power in the rivers and lakes in his hands.
But no one knew who the person behind him was, they only knew that those who didn't listen to his words all died unexpectedly.
Moreover, if the matter does not reach Chang'an City, it will be suppressed.
Over time, all the officials in Henan Province were afraid of him, and they dared not refuse.
Even so, this person does not have any property under his name, he is not a famous family, he is not a merchant of aristocratic family, he is extremely mysterious.
However, this person is not extreme in his work, he only takes the benefits he deserves, and the officials who cooperate with him can reap huge benefits.
So no one, expose him.
Li Chengqian looked at these three words, smiled lightly and said, "It's kind of interesting, I feel like a spokesperson."
"Your Highness, good news." At the same time, Xue Rengui hurried in from outside the residence.
Li Chengqian looked up, "Did you find him?"
"Your Highness is wise." Xue Rengui said happily, "His old nest is in Huazhou, Pucheng."
Chapter 278
Huazhou, Pucheng? " Li Chengqian pondered: "It's a strange location, but it's hidden very deeply. "
He then asked, "Has the person been arrested by you?"
"Not yet." Xue Rengui replied: "However, Pucheng is already full of our people. When the time is right, we can arrest them."
Li Chengqian nodded, and then said: "Go, I will go with you to meet this, Zhang Chengwen."
If he didn't go, he was still not at ease.
Now, Zhang Chengwen is their only clue. If this clue is broken, the case will be difficult.
out of town...
Li Chengqian and Xue Rengui hurried all the way to Pucheng.
Zhang Chengwen is not a fool, he has already prepared for so many new faces suddenly appearing in Pucheng.
But Su Dingfang wasn't a vegetarian either. Immediately, he led the White Robe Army and Modaowei to surround Pucheng.
Wang Xuance guarded the north gate, Luo Tong and Ding Yue guarded the east gate, Cheng Huailiang and Yuchi Baolin guarded the south gate, and Su Dingfang guarded the west gate.
In the city, entry is allowed and exit is not allowed, without a handbook, even a fly cannot fly out.
"His Royal Highness, you are here." Seeing Li Chengqian from a distance, Su Dingfang walked down the tower and came out to greet him.
Li Chengqian nodded and said, "How is the situation in the city?"
"The situation is more complicated than we expected." Su Dingfang frowned slightly, "Almost all the courtyards in the southern part of the city are in their hands, each courtyard is connected by tunnels, the terrain is extremely complicated, and the courtyard is full of organs.
However, there are several tunnels leading out of the city that have been blocked by us.
A few days ago, they had organized several breakouts, and after losing some manpower, they became honest.But the general feels that they are plotting a huge operation. "
Li Chengqian pondered: "Is the safety of the people in the city guaranteed?"
Su Dingfang replied: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the people have been gathered to the north of the city by us, and there are white-robed soldiers guarding them day and night, so don't worry about safety."
"Come on, let's go into the city and have a look." Li Chengqian said, then walked towards the city.
Several people came to the roof of a pavilion on the southern edge of the city. This pavilion was so tall that it could overlook the entire south of the city.
Li Chengqian took out his binoculars and scanned the deserted courtyards one by one.
"Have you tried it, have you been admitted to the hospital to arrest people?" He put down the binoculars in his hand and said in a deep voice.
Su Dingfang said: "I tried it, but the effect is not satisfactory. In the courtyard, there are many organs and hidden cabinets. We have hurt many brothers."
"Our siege of the city is also the next strategy, but there is no way."
"The hidden cabinet of the mechanism..." Li Chengqian murmured.
Thinking in his heart, his eyes lit up, isn't this hitting the back of his hand?
Li Chengqian turned his head to look at Xue Rengui and said, "Rengui, you go to Chang'an and bring Mo Hongzhe to this palace. In terms of clever tricks, no one can surpass him."
"Yes, Your Highness." Xue Rengui suddenly realized, "We have the trump card of the Mo family in our hands."
After saying that, he turned around and ran towards the pavilion.
Su Dingfang looked at the courtyard in front of him and said: "Your Highness, do we want to test it again and see what the hell they are doing."
Li Chengqian shook his head and said: "No need, let them play tricks, we just need to block them here."
"When Mo Hongzhe comes, within three days, they will all be caught."
In the south of the city, not far from the pavilion where Li Chengqian lived, in a private house.
A venomous eye was staring at Li Chengqian through the binoculars.
This person is the most wanted criminal they want to arrest, Zhang Chengwen.
Beside him, a man wearing a Rakshasa mask said in a deep voice, "My lord, that man is Li Chengqian. Once he comes, we will be in danger."
Zhang Wencheng snorted coldly: "I have been secretly renovating this house for several years. There are traps everywhere. It's not like they can break in if they want to."
The masked man spoke in a flustered voice, "But our hope of breaking through is even slimmer. Then Li Chengqian is a ruthless person."
Zhang Chengwen turned his head to look at him, and said in a deep voice: "For now, only the last secret passage is available, but we can't take risks. This secret passage only leads to the east wall."
"This is our last chance."
The two were talking, the telescope lens flashed in the sun, and a light and shadow reflected.
Li Chengqian looked in this direction fiercely, his eyes were facing the direction of the camera.
at this time……
Zhang Chengwen happened to look through the binoculars at the loft in the distance.
It doesn't matter.
Li Chengqian's abyss-like eyes were staring at him firmly.
A sharp light flashed in the bottom of his eyes, which made people shudder.
"Ah..." Zhang Wencheng unconsciously took a step back and screamed out.
With that glance, Li Chengqian seemed to see his heartbeat through the houses, through the binoculars, and through his chest.
With just one glance, Zhang Wencheng was terrified.
"No...impossible! How could he see me?" Cold sweat trickled down his forehead.
Zhang Wencheng couldn't believe it, and mustered up his courage to look into the telescope again.
But at this time, there was no one in the pavilion.
"How could it be?" Zhang Wencheng's head was bewildered, and his heart was pounding, feeling unbelievable.
He turned the camera to the side again, which was incredible.
Two figures were flying across the roof, and their target was exactly the target of Zhang Wencheng.
"No, run!" Zhang Wencheng shouted in surprise, and hurried to the back of the house.
at the same time.
A Sun Chasing Arrow had penetrated the wooden window and shot straight at Zhang Wencheng.
But his luck was very good, the Sun Chasing Arrow crossed his cheek and shot directly at the masked man in front left of him.
puff……
The Sun Chaser Arrow pierced through the masked man's chest and nailed him to the wall.
Zhang Wencheng was frightened, his heart was pounding, and his clothes were soaked in cold sweat.
He didn't dare to stay for a moment.
Ignoring the masked man who was shot to death, he triggered the mechanism and entered the dark cabinet.
at the same time.
boom!
The door of this house was kicked and smashed by Su Dingfang.
Li Chengqian and Su Dingfang rushed into the house, staring around, vigilant against the mechanism.
