Chapter 174 The Furious Chai Shao
"Hmph! If I know that you haven't found the gold, silver and jewelry, I will stay at the special forces base every day when I go back." Yang Yuanyuan glanced at the few people, complaining that these people were not colored, and finally said threateningly.
Yang Yuanyuan gritted her teeth and asked, then looked at the people again.
"I've found it clean. If you don't believe the Prime Minister, please check it again." Zhang Shaohui said with a tough forehead. When he met the strong but unreasonable beauty Prime Minister, he had to pinch his nose and admit defeat.
He would rather offend the beautiful Prime Minister in front of him than disobey Li Yu's orders. Deep in his heart, he never had the idea of betraying Li Yu, the king.
"Cancel the team! When I go back, I will go to the special brigade to check the work." Yang Yuanyuan bit her lip and said to the people with malicious intentions.
Zhang Shaohui and the others couldn't help but fight a cold war when they heard Yang Yuanyuan's words.
Although Yang Yuanyuan was unwilling to accept her, she waved her hand and everyone disappeared.
...
The guards patrolling the streets heard gunshots at the beginning, but did not know what the sound was, and did not arouse their vigilance. After about half a stick of incense, they waited for them to patrol the door of Chai Hui's mansion. Only then did they see the gate guards who were shot dead in front of the gate, and then they realized that something was wrong.
He hurried to Chai Hui's mansion and saw the unconscious maid, slave, and six guards being killed... Finally, he came to the backyard and saw Chai Hui who was shot into a sieve with guns. The soldiers on patrol were shocked and hurriedly reported to the top.
A third-rank imperial official was assassinated, causing a huge shock. The Chang'an imperial guards quickly martial law in Chang'an City and began to search for suspicious suspects throughout the city...
When Chai Shao heard that Chai Hui was killed, he was confused at that time and then hurried to Chai Hui's mansion. When he saw Chai Hui being beaten into a sieve, he stood in anger and roared like a wounded beast.
"Who killed our Chai family?" Chai Shao howled.
When Chai Fu saw Chai Shao yelling angry, he came over and said carefully: "Young Master! I have asked clearly that it was made by five people. The clothes we wore were strange and different from the clothes we wore. The face was painted with ghost talismans, and the weapons in his hands were tube-shaped weapons. According to the maids and slaves, they would emit fire, and the sound was a "bang bang!"
There is another worse thing. The dividends from the prefectures and counties near Chang'an that were collected in the dark room this year also disappeared."
After hearing this, Chai Shao was about to collapse, his eyes turned red, and he looked extremely irritable.
"Who killed Chai Hui and stole all the bonuses around Chang'an this year in our Chai family. Who is it? They are dozens of boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. How did they transport them away? Did it be made by Li Yu?" Chai Shao howled for a while before gritting his teeth.
Chai Fu also couldn't understand the reason, and said in silence, "It's hard to say, I just saw that one of the Earth-level warriors was kicked off by someone's ribs and finally their heads were penetrated and died. Seeing that the five opponents were at least those with the strength of the Earth-level warriors or above, there seemed to be no one in Li Yu's family, and he never interacted with others. Where did he find people with the strength of the Earth-level warriors or above?
How did they transport dozens of boxes of gold, silver and jewelry? There were a large number of patrol guards outside! And it was a curfew time. I just asked about the patrol guards that there were no carriages passing by on the streets of patrol guards."
"Have you seen weapons that kill people with tubular weapons? Have you heard of them? In addition, these weapons are so domineering that the earth-level warriors can easily kill them. It is not something that ordinary people can do. Only Li Yu can do it. Although we have no evidence that people were killed by him, I have a premonition that they are from the Li Yu faction. After killing Chai Hui, they snatched our gold, silver and jewelry." Chai Shao roared with his fists.
"Then, what should we do next? It's useless to get angry now?" Chai Fu saw Chai Shao's violent appearance and quickly persuaded him.
After hearing Chai Fu's words, Chai Shao realized that he had been attached to the face. He took a few deep breaths and sighed.
"What else can we do? We are just speculating. Without any evidence, we can only let the court investigate the murderer. We also have to send people to find clues. If we find clues, we don't need to take action. Li Yuan would not let the murderer go and kill a third-rank official in the court. This is also a slap in the face of His Majesty today." Chai Shao calmed down his inner violence and sneered.
Chai Fu responded, "This is the only way now."
...
The Royal Palace Chengqian Palace!
"Second brother, aren't there too many things going on in the court today? You came back so late today?" A beautiful, elegant and generous woman stood up and asked when she saw Li Er come in.
The woman who talks is the famous Empress Changsun in history.
Li Er rubbed his overly tired brain and said, "There are a lot of things to discuss today, mainly the host who led the water truck promotion. There is a lot of debate, but in the end I was still the promoter this time. Another thing is that Chai Hui was killed, and he discussed the issue of chasing and solving the case. So today's court meeting was also relatively long."
Changsun asked in surprise: "Has Chai Hui been killed?"
"I was killed last night." Li Er said casually.
"Oh!" Changsun said oh, and did not answer, but asked, "Since the second brother is here to host the promotion, why is the second brother unhappy?"
Li Er sighed and said helplessly: "This time I proposed war horses, the Ministry of Revenue was not approved, so the old man Pei Ji was stopped."
After Li Er finished speaking, he said again with anger: "They don't think about it. Although most areas have temporarily settled down. Foreign tribes are eyeing our Tang Dynasty and there are several warlords in the south, so they are harder in daily training, and it is worth it to damage some war horses. You also know that the cost of war horses is caused by the wear and breakage of horse hooves. This is also a major factor that has troubled the cavalry's attack. In the past two years, frequent wars have caused many horses to be like this. Today I asked the Ministry of Revenue for 100,000 guan, but they actually said that there were not so many, only 10,000 guan."
After saying that, Li Er sat there with a dark face. It seemed that he was very angry because of the issue in the court today.
Changsun said calmly: "Pei Ji understands that he is the one who supports his elder brother. Is it normal for him to make things difficult for you everywhere? Don't be angry."
Li Er explained helplessly: "It's impossible not to get angry. According to reliable news, Tuyuhun had plans to invade Tang Fangzhou and Liu Heita, a large-scale rebellion in Hebei. The situation in Hebei is getting worse and worse. The problem of war horses needs to be solved as soon as possible. If there are no large-scale cavalry, the combat effectiveness is low. If soldiers rely on walking on foot and the speed of traveling too slowly, it is easier to miss the opportunity!"
After Li Er finished speaking, he sighed and had no choice but to do anything.
"Second brother, why don't you ask Li Yu? Is there any way he can do? In addition, hasn't he promised to do three things for you?" Changsun saw that Li Er was sitting there and had no choice but to remind him.
"It's been a problem for thousands of years. Will he have any solutions?" Li Er asked helplessly after hearing this.
The main reason is that the horse hoof problem has plagued mankind for thousands of years. Li Er did not have any confidence and was sure that Li Yu could solve this problem.
Changsun shook his head and said confidently: "I don't believe others can do it. Li Yu is hard to say. Although I can't understand the "Physical Basics" you brought back from him, I think it's a big question. Can't you know if you ask?"
Although Changsun had never seen Li Yu, for some reason, she felt that Li Yu could solve this problem, which made her feel very strange.
Li Er thought about it, then raised his head and asked, "I'm not suitable for him now! Because Li Yu had a conflict with Chai Hui yesterday, Chai Hui was killed again in the evening. Many ministers suspected him?"
Li Er was a little worried, but he was still afraid of affecting his reputation.
Seeing the hesitation on Li Er's face, Changsun continued to ask, "Is there any evidence now? Is it the one Li Yu killed?"
"Nothing this! Chai Hui was killed by a few people wearing strange outfits, with great strength and weapons they used were weapons that they had never heard of before. They were said to be very domineering." Li Er shook his head, not understanding the reason.
Changsun was silent for a moment and immediately said, "Li Yu only doubted him when he had a conflict with Chai Hui. I don't have to pay attention to other people's opinions. After all, the matter of horse hoof is more important. I don't have to worry too much about other people's opinions."
After hearing this, Li Er felt it was reasonable, so he nodded and agreed: "That's right, the people who doubt Li Yu are not mine. I don't have to pay attention to them. I'll ask about horse hoof now."
After Li Er said that, he hurriedly left Chengqian Palace.
When Changsun saw Li Er leaving, he felt unconsciously that Zou Zou was killed. Deep down in her heart, Chai Hui was killed by Li Yu. It made her feel even more strange?
