In the end, Li arrogantly pushed open the door of the file room, and several guards behind him looked helpless.

……

Li Xiao entered the archives room, turned around and closed the door, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he still had a status to do things easily.

If this was in the past, no one would have known his son, and he would have been arrested long ago.

At this time, what you can see are rows of tall wooden shelves with countless books placed on them.

The classification is also marked on the wooden shelf.

Li Xiao quickly found the shelf for the servant's file.

I flipped through a few books at random, and they were all the files of some servants in the general's mansion.

Li Xiao was amazed in his eyes, he guessed that all the generals in Tiance's mansion and their servants also had records here.

After spending a few more minutes, Li Xiao found the archives of Prince Qin's residence.

"This is the butler...the guards...so many?"

"Your maid... found it!"

Li Xiao opened the maid's file and quickly found it.

But flipping through the pages, Li Xiao suddenly stopped, and his brows furrowed instantly.

"Why is there a page missing?"

He suddenly had a bad feeling, and quickly searched for the latter part.

Sure enough, as he expected, all servants in the Qin Mansion had records, except for those in his yard.

"hateful!"

Li Xiao slammed the file onto the shelf, frowning.

He never expected that someone would take the first step!

Who is this person?

In the heavily guarded Tiance Mansion, there are still people who can sneak into the archive room.

However, this is only one of them.

The only people who can freely enter the Tiance Mansion are some first-rate famous generals and counselors, and it is possible that they did it.

After thinking about it, Li Xiao immediately went out.

"Master Xiao!"

Several guards were standing at the door closely.

"Has anyone been here today?" Li Xiao asked with a serious face.

Several guards looked at each other and nodded.

A guard said: "Young Master Hui Xiao, people from Dali Temple came this morning, they came to investigate the case under the order of His Highness King Qin."

"There is Master Li following along, and there is no one else."

"Master Li?" Li Xiao frowned slightly, showing doubts.

"Li Xuandao, Master Li, is the head of Tiance Mansion, and this file room belongs to him." The guard explained.

"Li Xuandao?"

Li Xiao searched for this name carefully in his mind, but he didn't have the slightest impression.

"where does he live?"

"At this time, Lord Li should be on duty at the Palace of the King of Qin."

"okay, I get it."

Li Xiao turned around and left without asking any more questions.

Qinwang Hall is the main hall of Tiance Mansion, he visited it once during the discussion that day.

He knew very well that since Master Li was on duty, it meant that Li Er was in the Palace of King Qin, and he probably had received the news that he had trespassed in the archives.

He originally wanted to ask Li Xuandao about the situation, but it seemed that he could only wait for the next opportunity to come back, and it was better to avoid the limelight now.

After thinking about it, Li Xiao found a place where no one was around, climbed over the wall and left Tiance Mansion.

Walking on the street, Li Xiao frowned, carefully chewing the details of the information he got today.

First of all, the person who tore up that page must have been sent by the person behind the scenes.

It's just that it's hard to judge at this point in time. According to the traces of the crack, he judged that the time to tear it off should be in the near future.

If it was torn up before today, it would be difficult to check.

But if it was torn off today, the scope would be much narrower.

The investigators of Dali Temple, Li Xuandao, the chief bookkeeper, and even the guards at the gate are all possible.

But Li Xuandao is a high-level executive of Tiance Mansion, and he is directly ordered by Li Er, so there shouldn't be any problem.

And when the people from Dali Temple entered, Li Xuandao also followed, and the chance of doing something was not great.

The guards are not very likely, even if one or two can be bribed, it is impossible to bribe the eight guards at the door at the same time, right?

So now there is only one possibility left.

If there is a super master, can it sneak into the archives without anyone noticing?

It's entirely possible!

If he has a detailed map, and has a certain understanding of the defense of Tiance Mansion, plus night operations, Li Xiao feels that he can do it all.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.

Although there was no clear clue, he got an important piece of information. Among the people behind the scenes, there was a master who was not inferior to Li Junxian.

Such masters are rare in the capital, excluding those generals, there are only a handful of them.

As long as he finds out the identities of these top masters, the rest will be much easier.

And this, maybe Li Junxian knows something.

Chapter 19: Baby, are you satisfied with this toy?

Li Xiao was not in a hurry to return home, but came to the artisan workshop.

Before that, he found a few craftsmen and handed over the manufacture of the core parts of the god arm crossbow to them.

An hour passed, and Li Xiao didn't know if the artisan workshop was finished.

Walking into the artisan workshop, before Li Xiao could speak, a clerk said to him impatiently: "Go, go, children, don't run around, go find your adults!"

Hearing this, Li Xiao's face turned dark, and then he sighed, quite helplessly.

With such a small body, although there are many conveniences, it also brings a lot of troubles.

It would be great if he could grow up a bit, with such a small body, he might not be able to marry a wife in the bridal chamber, and he has to wait for many years, which is hard!

"I don't know if the system has a reward for growing up..."

Just when Li Xiao sighed in his heart.

The man wanted to drive away Li Xiao, but was pushed away by the sudden appearance of the steward.

"My son, I'm sorry, this guy is new and ignorant."

The manager had a flattering smile on his face, and after finishing speaking, he glared at the waiter and said, "This is a big customer of our store, what are you talking about? Next time, keep your eyes open!"

The guy's eyes widened, and he watched the steward welcome Li Xiao in with a look of horror.

"Okay, steward, how is the thing I want?"

Li Xiao was still in a hurry and was too lazy to talk nonsense.

"Of course it's done, son, come with me!"

The steward smiled and led the way.

Not long after, the two came to the counter, and the steward took out a package from it and handed it to Li Xiao.

"Well, I thought you would need a lot of time, but I didn't expect it to be faster than I expected."

Li Xiao nodded, quite satisfied.

He didn't come with the mentality of getting the finished product at all, and he didn't expect the other party to give him a surprise.

"That's right, the small shop is a hundred years old, and the craftsmanship of this craftsman is definitely the first-class in the whole capital."

The steward took advantage of the trend and started advertising.

Li Xiao rolled his eyes, he didn't bother to listen, he opened the package in his hand.

The next moment, what appeared in front of him made Li Xiao stunned in place.

Holding up the wooden lump in his hand, he stared at the steward angrily and shouted, "I asked you to make a pulley, but what do you mean by giving me a wooden carriage?"

In his hand was a miniature carriage, the kind with wheels that could turn, but without a horse.

What he originally explained was to make a movable pulley that can shake, which is similar to the reel for kite flying in later generations.

This gap is too outrageous!

However, the person in charge still said with a smile on his face: "Sir, calm down, don't you think this carriage is much more fun than that pulley? For this reason, the store added some more materials, and they didn't even count the money for you!"

"It's more fun?" Li Xiao said with a gloomy face, "You think I'm here to make toys?"

"Otherwise?" the manager said naturally.

"hiss……"

Li Xiao took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and then said in a deep voice: "Before, I told you the detailed requirements, right?"

"Besides, I also drew a structural diagram for your reference."

"Now, you have received the money, why don't you do what I ask?"

"Young master, play with it first, you will definitely like this toy." The manager said disapprovingly.

"I play Nima! Either refund the money! Or do it for me again!" Li Xiao said with a dark face.

"Oh, young master, why are you so stubborn? If you really like wheels, come and give them to me, and I'll take them apart for you." The manager said helplessly.

"This is useless at all, the workmanship is too rough, and the previous agreement was to use iron wire as the material. Forget it, I don't count on you anymore. Give me my money back, and I will find another place."

Li Xiao shook his head and said impatiently.

As soon as he heard the refund, the manager's face immediately changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Young master, you have to be reasonable in everything, this thing was made for you, if you don't like it, just say refund, it's too overbearing Bar?"

"You didn't do what I asked and wasted my time. It's fine if I didn't settle accounts with you, but you still want to swallow my money?!"

His eyes became cold.

"Settling the score?" The steward was taken aback for a moment, and then burst into laughter, "Haha, little baby, which family are you from? Are you so loud? You still want to settle the score with me? Haha, I'm so scared!"

"I'll give you ten breaths to hand over the money!" Li Xiao said coldly, ignoring the manager.

"Hehe..." The steward smiled contemptuously, "I'll give you ten breaths, get out immediately, otherwise..."

Having said this, the steward's face became gloomy.

"How about otherwise?"

Suddenly, there was an angry voice from the door.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of heavy footsteps gradually approached.

When the steward heard the arrogant words, his face was full of hostility, and he shouted without turning his head: "Which short-sighted person is making trouble again? Do you know where this is?"

"Come on!"

"Fork it out!"

However, the originally noisy artisan workshop was silent at the moment.

The steward was still wondering why the people didn't do anything, and suddenly saw those servants staring at the door in horror, motionless.

He was startled suddenly, with a bad premonition, and suddenly turned around.
