I'm a marquis in Datang

Li Jiancheng said: "That's good, that's good. Xu Ming has been killed, so the news will be interrupted. Even if Chang'an County Magistrate Wang Minzhi thoroughly investigates this matter, it is impossible to find out anything."

Immediately, Li Jiancheng sighed again: "This Xu Ming is really useless. He was obviously close to Du Qi, but he missed it. If his aim was a little bit more accurate, and he stabbed Du Qi's heart, then Du Qi is already dead by now." It was a death. Unfortunately, this left Du Qi's life and let Du Qi escape."

Wei Zheng said: "His Royal Highness, although he failed to leave any clues, it's just that we should keep a low profile and be careful now. At this time, we are extremely easy to be suspected."

Li Jiancheng said: "The prince doesn't care about this. Anyway, there is no good reason, so you can't suspect the prince. What's more, who dares to investigate the prince thoroughly."

Wei Zheng said: "What His Royal Highness said is very true."

As long as there is no evidence, even if someone suspects the Prince's Mansion, there is nothing to do.

There is nothing to do with the Prince's Mansion.

There is nothing he can do about Li Jiancheng.

Chapter 125

eye drops

Near noon, Liu Jian called Du Qi up.However, Du Qi's body was still a little weak, so after lunch, Du Qi took a nap in the afternoon, picked up the Romance of the Three Kingdoms No. 20 and the fifth chapter of the Romance of the Gods, and went straight to the palace.

This is to see Li Yuan.

Du Qi is now bound to enter the palace every day.According to the current frequency of his entering the palace, Du Qi's meeting with Emperor Li Yuan was more frequent than most officials in the court.

Every day at this time, Du Qi would enter the palace on time.

When Du Qi entered the city, he didn't need to wait, and he didn't need soldiers to report, he could enter the palace directly.After Du Qi entered the palace, he went straight to Ganlu Hall.He stood still in the main hall, bowed his hands and said: "Chen Du Qi, see Your Majesty."

When he saluted, his left hand could be raised normally, but his right hand was only raised a little.Even so, the expression on Du Qi's face already revealed a look of pain, after all, his right shoulder was seriously injured.

Li Yuan saw something was wrong at a glance, and asked, "Du Erlang, you can't lift your right hand, what's wrong?"

Du Qidao: "Your Majesty, my injury is nothing. It's just a slight wound on my shoulder, and I can't lift my hand. If I'm rude, please forgive me."

"What crime do you have, I forgive you for not being guilty."

Li Yuan shook his head, it's just that he lived a long time, it's the existence of a mature person.Seeing that Du Qi said it easily, but the look on Du Qi's face was obviously not relaxed, and he knew that the situation was not good.

Especially, it is summer now, and the weather is even hotter.The clothes on Du Qi's body were thin, and once the wound burst, blood would ooze out.Li Yuan looked carefully, and suddenly saw blood oozing from Du Qi's left shoulder, staining the clothes on his shoulder red.

Seeing this situation, Li Yuan is even more aware that Du Qi's situation is probably very wrong.

Now Li Yuan admires Du Qi very much.

What's more, Li Yuan seems to have become Du Qi's book fan now, waiting to read Du Qi's books every day.as soon as he saw

Du Qi looked worried, stood up and walked in front of Du Qi, putting his hand directly on Du Qi's right shoulder.

In an instant, a piercing pain came from the wound.Although Du Qi was gritting his teeth, the severe pain made Du Qi step back two steps, and the expression on his face changed again and again.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and endured it without making a sound.

Li Yuan looked cold and serious, and said: "Du Erlang, tell me what happened to your shoulder injury. Under normal circumstances, even if you are injured, your shoulder will not be injured. Especially, the injury is not so serious. .”

Du Qidao: "Your Majesty, I have been assassinated."

"Assassination?"

Li Yuan's voice suddenly rose.

A look of shock appeared on the old wrinkled face.The majestic Chang'an City, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, was the capital of the Great Tang Dynasty, and now Du Qi, although he was not an official, was still a seventh-rank official of the imperial court, and he was assassinated.

This is unforgivable.

Li Yuan said: "Say, what's going on."

Du Qi then said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I went to the restaurant with my entourage this morning. At that time, someone came to pay respects, saying that they were here to present treasures and asked me to do something."

"This person called himself Xu Ming. He came to me with a brocade box and was about to present a treasure. But when he was three feet away from me, he suddenly came down and killed me.

Hand, from the bottom of the brocade box, took out a dagger and stabbed me. "

"Thanks to my quick reaction, I moved my body a bit, so it was only on my shoulder. I didn't get stabbed in such a vital part as the heart by Xu Ming. I was lucky to escape."

Du Qi continued: "It's also thanks to the fact that I took a Kunlun slave as a guard outside the restaurant yesterday. The Kunlun slave Mo Ledu shot and killed Xu Ming directly to protect my safety. Now Xu Ming assassinated The matter has been reported to the magistrate Wang Minzhi of Chang'an County. The magistrate Wang is also investigating now, but there is no result yet."

Li Yuan's complexion was extremely gloomy.

Someone actually assassinated Du Qi.

It should be killed.

Li Yuan thought for a while, then suddenly asked: "Du Erlang, have you offended anyone recently?"

Du Qi said: "Your Majesty, when you do things, the boy has always adhered to the principle of keeping things on the front line so that we can meet in the future. Basically, when you run things, you offend someone. Unless,..."

Speaking of this, Du Qi suddenly changed his words and said: "Your Majesty, the boy really didn't offend anyone. For the time being, I don't know the specific reason. We can only wait for the investigation results of the county magistrate of Chang'an County."

Li Yuan asked, "Unless what?"

Du Qidao: "Your Majesty, it's nothing. I really haven't offended anyone during this period of time. Besides, restaurants, tea shops, etc.

Shops and bookstores all make money in harmony, and they are not considered a complete monopoly.I asked myself, did not offend anyone. "

He didn't answer Li Yuan's culture.

Li Yuan snorted, and said in a deep voice: "Du Erlang, what you want to say, unless it is the Prince of the Eastern Palace, right?"

Du Qi smiled awkwardly.

He didn't answer or say anything.

Li Yuan thought about it for a while, because he had been in contact with Du Qi for a while, and thought he understood Du Qi's nature, and felt that Du Qi was really not a troublemaker.This is calculated carefully, because he reprimanded Li Jiancheng, and based on his understanding of Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng is narrow-minded and will take revenge, so I am afraid that he will really become angry from embarrassment.

As a result, Li Yuan also had some doubts about Li Jiancheng, after all, Li Jiancheng was the most suspicious.

Li Yuan rolled his eyes, and immediately ordered: "Come here, tell the magistrate of Chang'an to enter the palace for an audience."

The eunuchs in the palace immediately went to deliver the decree.

Li Yuan returned to the subject and said, "Du Erlang, did you bring the content of today's book? Now that your hand is injured, I'm afraid it will be difficult to write the manuscript again."

Du Qi said: "Your Majesty, last night, the boy had already written today's manuscript, so there is enough content for today. Wait until tomorrow, the boy will dictate and ask his followers to write it down. However, the handwriting after tomorrow may be worse. "

"It's okay, thank you for your hard work."

After hearing this, Li Yuan rubbed his hands impatiently, with an expectant look on his face.
