After I killed him for 9,000 years, he was reborn.

As the legitimate son of a noble family and the future heir of the Li family, although Li Yongnian was kneeling on the ground, his back was straight. He did not care too much about the anger of Emperor Jiade. He stood up and began to tell the story of Jialing City.

"What happened in Jialing City is not something that happened overnight. Tencent has bases in various places throughout the Dachong Dynasty. About five years ago, Tencent's staff in the Jialing City base had accidents one after another. Some fell to their deaths, some drowned, and there were all kinds of strange deaths.

Although the other party controlled the frequency and people would not easily notice the abnormality, the probability of death was obviously much higher than a normal accident. The Grand Princess felt that something was wrong, but did not want people to guess that Tencent had discovered the abnormality, so she sent a capable manager openly and asked me to go to Jialing City privately to gather information.

I have been in Jialing City for 4 years, and I have never figured out the other party's bottom line. I just know that there is indeed a force lurking there.

The other party is quite cautious, and the Tencent incident may have alerted them. They usually do not take any action, but only leave some clues occasionally.

The Southern Governor of Jialing City is a good official who works diligently and loves the people. He does not belong to any faction in the court and has a clean background. I have never paid much attention to him.

Unexpectedly, three months ago, the Nan Taishou was suddenly killed along with his entire family without any warning.

But what is particularly strange is that even though the chief official of Jialing City, the prefect of the city, had his entire family killed, Jialing City remained as usual, as if nothing had happened, and the news was kept secret.

There were so many people in the yamen, but they didn't react at all. Or those who didn't turn a blind eye to it were all cleared out.

The people in the Jialing City government office remained the same as usual, but the stationed Dingbei Army quickly took over the entire Jialing City.

Ever since the old Marquis Dingbei returned to Yuanjing City for retirement due to health reasons, he has no descendants who can take over the management of the Dingbei Army. The military power of the Dingbei Army has always been fought over by several former deputy generals.

The Grand Princess promised the Emperor that she would not interfere with the army, and we abide by our promise. Therefore, Tencent is not aware of the current situation of the Dingbei Army.

There was something fishy about the murder of the Jialing City governor and his entire family. Tencent sent two spies to report the incident, but they both disappeared on the way.

Or to be more precise, the man disappeared without a trace before leaving the Dingbei Army's sphere of influence.

In order to pass the news back to Yuanjing City, I found a way to escape from Jialing City. I stayed in Jialing City with a different identity, and on the surface, it seemed that I had no relationship with Tencent, so I was able to get out. "

"pat"

"pat"

One after another, regular crisp sounds.

After listening to Li Yongnian's words, Emperor Jiade, who had already controlled his mind, reached out and habitually moved the beads of the Hetian jade bracelet in his hand.

"According to what you said, the problem lies with the Dingbei Army."

“I don’t know.

I cannot speak without evidence."

Li Yongnian looked calm and composed, showing no signs of abnormality under the emperor's majesty.

Sitting on his dragon chair, fiddling with his Hetian jade bracelet habitually with one hand, the Guardian Emperor was silent for a long time, and finally waved his hand and said, "I understand. You can go down first. Li Yongnian, you can stay in Yuanjing City for the time being."
