Li Junxian's eyes froze, and he was about to draw his sword.
But he was held down by Li Xiao's hand.
Chapter 383: You won't kill me?
Ding Wu left.
Li Xiao didn't send anyone to stop him, he just looked at Ding Wu's back and gradually fell into deep thought.
"Your Highness, although this person is not a big threat, he has a lot of hostility towards His Highness after all. This subordinate feels that we should find out who is behind him." Li Junxian said thoughtfully.
"That's what I meant too."
Li Xiao nodded and said, "Send someone to follow and report any situation."
"Yes!"
Li Junxian cupped his fists and left...
Several hours later, Li Xiao returned to Qinzhou City Lord's Mansion.
At this time, Li Junxian came in from outside the hall.
"Your Highness!"
Li Junxian clasped his fists in salute, and then took out something from behind.
is a sword.
"What's the matter?" Li Xiao asked.
Li Junxian said slowly: "After the blind man left, he went to the pawn shop to exchange some silver with this sword, and then went to find the local literati."
"Looking for a literati?" Li Xiao looked puzzled, "What are you doing?"
"I don't know about this at the moment, but our people are following there, and we should know the result soon."
Speaking of this, Li Junxian glanced at the long sword in his hand again, and continued: "Your Highness, this sword has some origins."
"What's the reason? Could it be that you can't make a magic weapon?" Li Xiao smiled disdainfully.
"This sword was a standard weapon of the Tang Dynasty many years ago. Judging from the pattern, this person has served in the army before, and his position in the army is not low." Li Junxian said thoughtfully.
"A retired soldier?"
"It turns out that's the case. I said, where does he have a murderous aura coming from him!"
Li Xiao suddenly realized: "It seems that most of them are Li Xiaogong's former subordinates again."
After a pause, Li Xiao showed doubts on his face: "With his skills, it is not easy to get some money? He even pawned the sword that has been with me for many years. Isn't this person too pedantic?"
"Just don't know what he wants to do with the money."
"Looking for a literati, what is this for?"
Li Xiao fell into deep thought.
After a while, a guard came in, whispered something in Li Junxian's ear, and gave him a package.
"Your Highness, there is no need to guess, the result has already come out."
Li Junxian said with a smile: "This person belongs to Lin Yang."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiao asked with a puzzled expression: "Why didn't Xiang Jun inform me of this kind of thing in advance?"
"Your Highness, the blind man's name is Ding Wu. This is a letter he entrusted someone to write to Lin Yang. It seems that when he was in the restaurant before, His Highness's unintentional words were heard by him. He knew Xiang Jun's identity. The person who wrote this letter The purpose is to remind Lin Yang."
Li Junxian continued: "But he didn't expect to be robbed by our people."
"It seems that he has met Xiang Jun." Li Xiao said thoughtfully.
"Nine times out of ten, this person came to look for His Highness without telling Lin Yang, otherwise, based on Lin Yang's knowledge of His Highness's strength, it would be impossible for him to come and die." Li Junxian said in a deep voice with deep eyes.
"It should be so."
"Your Highness, how should I deal with this person?"
"Xiang Jun's identity must not be revealed, otherwise his life will be in danger." After thinking about it, Li Xiao said.
"Your Highness means...to kill?" Li Junxian asked.
"What do you think?" Li Xiao asked back.
"Your Highness, I beg you to spare his life."
Li Junxian's face suddenly became more serious, and he clasped his fists and said: "From the perspective of his behavior, he is not an unreasonable person, and all the scars on his body are left by my Tang..."
"I understand your idea."
Li Xiao raised his hand to interrupt Li Junxian's words, and said slowly: "The veteran who retired from the front line, the battle hero, I also admire this kind of person very much. As long as he does not cause harm to me, I will not touch him."
Having said that, Li Xiao stood up and said, "Take me to see him!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Li Junxian said with a happy face.
……
In the south of Qinzhou City, Qingya Lake.
It is often a place where literati and poets recite poems and write poems.
At this time, in a gazebo, Ding Wu sat opposite a refined scholar.
The scholar was holding a pen at this time, writing vigorously on the paper.
"I said, old man, I have written No.13 times, why write so many of the same letter?"
A trace of dissatisfaction appeared on the scholar's face.
If he hadn't been given enough money, he really didn't want to take on this kind of work.
"I'll add you a tael of silver, don't ask too much." Ding Wu said coldly.
In fact, he also has concerns in his heart.
He was worried that Li Xiao's people would steal the letters, so he planned to send out a few more.
At this moment, Li Xiao came from a distance with Li Junxian.
Hearing the sound of footsteps seemed to be a little different from ordinary people, Ding Wu hurriedly asked the scholar: "What does the person from six feet behind me look like?"
Before the scholar could speak, Li Xiao smiled and shouted from a distance: "Don't ask, it's me!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Ding Wu's complexion instantly became gloomy.
He turned around slowly, and said in a deep voice, "I've already let you go once, but this time you've thrown yourself into a trap!"
"Still writing letters?"
Li Xiao laughed and said, "Ding Wu, right? Want to tip off the news? Do you really think that I will let you handle it and dare not touch you?"
"You sent someone to steal my letter!"
Ding Wu's heart sank to the bottom in an instant, and then he showed helplessness: "I warned you, why do you have to force me?"
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to the scholar and said, "Stay away!"
Immediately, he flipped his wrist, and in an instant a steel needle shot out, heading straight for Li Xiao's face!
The corner of Li Xiao's mouth curled up, he raised his hand, and easily caught the steel needle.
"Ok?"
Ding Wu instantly recognized through his voice that he did not hit the target, and then three steel needles shot out in volley.
"Boo! Hah! Hah!"
The three steel needles covered all the dodgeable range around Li Xiao's side.
But Li Xiao just raised his hand again, and easily caught the flying steel needle.
In this way, Ding Wu shot more than ten times, but was shocked to find that Li Xiao's footsteps did not stop at all.
This also meant that his attack did not cause any harm to Li Xiao.
How can this be?
Ding Wu stood up abruptly, with an expression of disbelief on his face, he murmured: "I have practiced hard for many years with hidden weapons, why can't I hurt you? What have you done?"
With a wave of his hand, Li Xiao threw dozens of steel needles at Ding Wu's feet, and said with a smile, "Continue."
Hearing the tinkling sound from the ground, Ding Wu realized that all his attacks were actually caught by Li Xiao with his hands.
This made him startled again.
What kind of strength is needed to easily catch all his hidden weapons with his hands?
Thinking of this, Ding Wu suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
At this point, he fully understood that Li Xiao's strength was not something he could deal with at all.
Not to mention that Li Xiao still has Qiongzhou's army behind him.
He probably couldn't even escape.
Taking a deep breath, Ding Wu didn't continue to attack, but said: "I didn't expect that His Royal Highness Yue Wang would have such skill, I am not wronged."
"Go ahead!"
After finishing speaking, Ding Wu looked like he was going to catch him without a fight.
At this point, the struggle is futile.
Li Xiao stepped into the gazebo, sat down slowly, and said with a smile, "Sit!"
"You won't kill me?"
Ding Wu looked surprised.
However, Li Xiao just looked at him calmly, and asked lightly: "Do you want to avenge Lin Yang? Or avenge Li Xiaogong?"
Chapter 384: Tragic Foolish Loyalty
"I don't do it for anyone, I do it for the world, and eradicate your evil!" Ding Wuyi said sternly.
"Am I a disaster?"
Li Xiao looked surprised, and then sneered: "Then, what unreasonable things have I done? Did I dig your ancestral grave? Or demolish your house?"
"really interesting!"
"The old prince has made countless contributions to the Tang Dynasty and is loyal, but he was framed by you and imprisoned, and suffered a lot!"
Ding Wuyi said indignantly: "If loyal ministers to your Li Tang royal family will end up like this, then this loyalty is worthless!"
"fart!"
Li Xiao rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Where did you hear the news that I framed him?"
"You still want to quibble?" Ding Wu sneered.
"Li Xiaogong sent people to assassinate this king over and over again, but my father, thinking about his blood relationship and his achievements, just imprisoned him."
"If it were someone else, they would have copied and cut off all their families. Isn't that enough? Is it my fault? Is my life in the way of him?"
However, Ding Wu said firmly: "My lord has his own reasons for killing you, and I believe he is also thinking of Datang."
"Damn me? Who cares for me? What a shit!"
Li Xiao said angrily: "To tell you the truth, according to the information I have obtained so far, your loyal Li Xiaogong has already colluded with foreign enemies and become a traitor! Only an idiot like you trusts him so much."
"This is impossible!"
"Half of Datang's country was brought down by the old prince himself. Anyone may betray Datang, but it will never be him!" Ding Wu said with a face of determination.
"Ha ha."
Li Xiao sneered, shook his head and said, "Do you know why Dongying and Turks suddenly attacked?"
"Do you know why the war in the north has been repeatedly defeated?"
"Let me tell you, all of this has something to do with Li Xiaogong!"
Ding Wu's face was determined: "If you are as eloquent as you are, I won't believe a word of yours. You don't need to say too much. If you want to kill me, I will kill you. But if you want to insult the old prince, I will never tolerate it!"
