After Wei Zheng finished speaking, another person walked to the center of the hall.

Du Ruhui said calmly: "Your Majesty, I second the proposal. The king of Yue is still young, and being crowned king is already an exception. This marriage... Please think twice, Your Majesty."

Hearing these two people's words, Li Er's expression was a bit unsightly, but he still said patiently: "Fang Aiqing, what do you think?"

Being called by Li Er, Fang Xuanling knew that he couldn't escape, so he smiled wryly and said, "Returning to your majesty, I think that, as long as your majesty and General Li agree to the marriage, the others may not agree to it." Very obstructive."

"Master Fang, it's not that you don't know, it's not just a simple marriage?"

Du Ruhui frowned and looked at Fang Xuanling with displeasure.

"Master Du." Fang Xuanling smiled slightly, "Master Du, I'm very puzzled. It's just a marriage, why is it so complicated?"

"Hmph! Pretending to be understanding and pretending to be confused!"

Du Ruhui snorted coldly, but had nothing to say.

"Okay, shut up!"

Li Er scolded, then looked at Changsun Wuji next to him: "Auxiliary machine, what do you think?"

Changsun Wuji said without thinking, "I support Your Majesty!"

In just one sentence, it contains too much information.

Li Er glanced thoughtfully at Changsun Wuji, nodded and said: "My intention has been decided, the marriage is settled, there is no need to talk about it!"

……

outside the temple.

"My little ancestor, do you know what you did just now?" Li Tai looked at Li Xiao with a broken heart, and questioned Li Xiao.

"Aren't I drunk? I can't remember clearly, fourth brother, please tell me!"

Li Xiao smiled slyly, revealing two small canine teeth.

"I... ugh..."

Li Tai's eyes widened, and then he sighed heavily.

"Brother Xiao, after today, I'm afraid your reputation will not be preserved, you have to be mentally prepared."

"If you can't keep it, you can't keep it. What's the matter?"

Li Xiao shook his head, pretending to be puzzled.

"Are you really ignorant or just pretending to be stupid?"

Li Tai said with a look of hatred: "You don't need to think about it, you know, the boss will be made the prince later, you are in a bad situation, and now you are destroying your reputation, all officials will naturally choose to support the boss, What do you use to fight the boss?"

"Why do you want to fight?" Li Xiao looked at Li Tai playfully, "But fourth brother, do you still care about the crown prince?"

"Shh!"

Li Tai's face turned pale, he quickly covered Li Xiao's mouth, and whispered: "Little ancestor, don't talk nonsense, you want to kill me!"

"Fourth brother, let's be honest, you want to drag me to grab the position of boss, I can only say that you have found the wrong person." Li Xiao looked into Li Tai's eyes and said calmly.

Hearing this, Li Tai suddenly fell silent, and just looked at Li Xiao quietly.

After a while, Li Tai shook his head slightly and said: "Brother Xiao, born in the royal family, you can't help yourself, so you can hide if you want?"

"Ordinary people's children, even if they can't compete, what they lose is their family property."

"And once we fail, unless we wag our tails in front of him like a dog, we will only have a dead end."

After a pause, Li Tai shook his head slightly: "That's the end of the conversation, Brother Xiao...you can do it yourself..."

After speaking, Li Tai turned and left.

Looking at Li Tai's somewhat desolate back, Li Xiao's eyes were thoughtful.

He naturally understood these words.

It's just that he can't trust Li Tai.

After a while, Li Junxian came from a distance: "Your Highness!"

"How is it? Have you spoken?" Li Xiao asked hastily with a change in his expression.

Chapter 37: Interesting Ways

Li Junxian shook his head: "All kinds of instruments of torture have been used, but she still keeps her mouth shut."

Hearing this, Li Xiao frowned, and continued to ask: "Has anyone else touched her secretly?"

"No, the Criminal Department wanted to interrogate, but was stopped by his subordinates." Li Junxian thought for a while and said.

"Department of punishment?" Li Xiao frowned, "Who is in charge?"

"The Minister of Punishments is called Li Daozong. He was a military commander. He was injured in the war a few years ago and was transferred to the Ministry of Punishments." Li Junxian said slowly.

"Li Daozong?"

Li Xiao carefully recalled it in his mind, but found that he didn't have any impression.

"Your Highness, do you want to send someone to investigate this person?"

"No, it's normal for the Ministry of Criminal Justice to interrogate, so there should be no problem." Li Xiao thought for a while and said.

"Right, one more thing."

Li Junxian suddenly thought of something, and his face suddenly became serious.

"The subordinates have sent people to inquire in the capital. There are indeed some people with the surname Xiang, but they are not suspected. The city guards have also greeted them, and no suspicious people have been found. Those members of the Xiang family seem to have disappeared out of thin air. It's the same in Beijing."

"Disappeared?"

Li Xiao was thoughtful: "It seems that my prediction was correct. These people do have roots in the capital, and the people behind them are not young."

"Young master, what should we do now?"

Li Xiao looked towards the sky, narrowing his eyes slightly: "I'll go meet her in person."

……

Prison prison.

Li Xiao entered the cell.

What came to the face was the dark, damp, rancid smell that made the stomach acid churn.

Under the leadership of the jailer, Li Xiao and Li Junxian came to the deepest cell area.

On weekdays, only heinous murderers and enemy spies are held here.

But now, a woman surrounded by pearls and emerald greens sat quietly inside, but she was covered in blood and looked very embarrassed.

Hearing the footsteps outside the cell, Sister Hua said without raising her head: "Master Li is here again? This time, we need to bring more instruments of torture. The last time was not enough!"

Hearing this, Li Xiao smiled slightly, then opened the cell door and walked in: "Sister Hua, do you still remember me?"

Sister Hua was taken aback for a moment, then turned her head and chuckled, "So it's Mr. Xiao, it's stinky and cold here, and you come here with such a delicate body, be careful of getting caught in the cold."

"You seem to be very adaptable to this environment, did you have special training before?" Li Xiao said thoughtfully.

Hearing this, Sister Hua frowned slightly, and said coldly: "Young Master Xiao, don't try to trick me, I advise you not to waste time, kill me quickly!"

Li Xiao shook his head and chuckled, "No, no, I won't kill you."

"If you have any instruments of torture, please bring them up, don't hide them."

"I'm not going to torture you either, I just want to chat with you, that's all."

"Hehe, don't take me for a fool, isn't the purpose of your coming here just for that name?"

"That's right, maybe we hit it off, and you took the initiative to tell me while chatting?"

"wishful thinking!"

Sister Hua sneered, her expression extremely disdainful.

"is it?"

Li Xiao smiled slightly, and then said: "Well... It is indeed difficult to get you to speak, but I think it may be extremely easy to grasp a person's vitals."

After a pause, Li Xiao continued: "Let me guess, what is your weakness? Hmm... You are not afraid of death, and you can also endure physical torture. I wonder if you can withstand mental torture?"

"Hehe, whatever tricks Mr. Xiao has, just use it, see if I will frown." Sister Hua sneered, disdainful.

Li Xiao smiled slightly: "Very well, after hearing what you said, I thought of an interesting idea."

"At this moment, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in my Tang Dynasty fighting against the Turks at the border. This battle has been fought year after year. After so many years, the soldiers always face mountains of swords and blood, but they have never tasted women. "

"Do you think the soldiers will be happy if I send you there?"

After a pause, Li Xiao continued: "I don't know how many soldiers you will be blessed with, will it be ten? Or a hundred? Hmm... Maybe there should be a rule to serve ten people every day, every seven days... ..."

"You are a devil!"

Sister Hua stared at Li Xiao with staring eyes at the moment, her trembling body proved that she was a little scared at the moment.

"No, I'm distributing benefits to my soldiers of the Great Tang Dynasty. How can I be a demon?"

Li Xiao still had a kind smile on his face.

"I could kill myself!"

"You're reminding me, um... then I won't exile you, tie you up on the street, and enjoy your tenderness as long as you pay, um... how about this idea under the watchful eyes of everyone?"

"you!"

Sister Hua was filled with endless fear at this moment.

She stared at Li Xiao, she never thought that this five-year-old child would have such vicious thoughts.

"Hehe, after listening to my idea, you seem to be very happy, so let's do it like this."

After speaking, Li Xiao turned around and prepared to leave.

"and many more!"

Sister Hua seemed to think of the scene when she was humiliated next, she trembled all over, and quickly called Li Xiao to stop.

"Who is your master?"

Li Xiao turned around, his face suddenly became serious.

"call……"

Sister Hua seemed to have made up her mind, and she relaxed a lot.

"Young Master Xiao, I have to admit that you are indeed very skilled, but even so, you still can't beat him. Do you still need to know his name?"

"Whether you can win the fight or not is another matter. You don't have to worry about it, you just need to say your name." Li Xiao said expressionlessly.

Hearing this, Sister Hua shook her head lightly, and then said: "I only know that his name is Lord Hou, and he has a high position and great power in the court. As for who it is, I have never seen it, so I don't know."

"Huh?" Li Xiao frowned instantly, "You haven't seen him? Then how do you get in touch?"

"It's his confidant. I've seen two of them. One is called Qisha and the other is called Pojun. Both of them are top-notch fighters."

Sister Hua said desolately: "The orders of Master Hou are conveyed by these two people."

"What do you do for him?" Li Xiao continued to ask.

"Find someone to develop poison and provide it to him, and help him earn money by the way." Sister Hua confessed.

"That's all?"

"That's all!"

"You also developed the drug that lowers the intelligence of children?"

"That's right, don't you..."

Sister Hua looked at Li Xiao and seemed to think of something.

"Then, has this medicine been sold?"

"It was sold, but almost no one bought it, and then it was not sold."

Hearing this, Li Xiao was basically sure that the person who gave him the medicine was the so-called Lord Hou.

After pondering for a moment, Li Xiao asked, "Who do you think this Lord Hou should be?"
