Datang: Starting from a fortune-telling stall, Wu Zetian was suddenly abducted

Chapter 425
After everyone looked at each other, Li Jinxing stood up first and expressed his opinion. Li Ji accepted it completely.

Only then did everyone's courage grow, and they began to express their opinions and express their thoughts one by one.

Naturally, the work of flood fighting and disaster relief has been improved a lot.

After everyone finished speaking, Li Ji turned to look at Li Chengqian and said:
"Your Highness, everything has been drafted. Do you think there are any shortcomings?"

In fact, these things were discussed between the two of them before the meeting, so Li Chengqian naturally wouldn't make any sense.

After listening to Li Ji's words, he also said with a smile:

"The British Lord has arranged all the major events, and the other gentlemen have also perfected the details. I have nothing to say."

"Let us all work together to help the people of Bianliang return to normal life as soon as possible."

After everyone in the hall stood up and agreed, they gradually left the main hall.

When Yuan Shouwei saw this, he was about to leave. Finally, he had some free time. He was also going to receive the reward and think about the bead that Lao Cao gave him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step forward, he was stopped by Li Chengqian:

"Yuan Shouwei, don't rush back yet. There is another very important matter here that we need to discuss."

Yuan Shouwei saw that he and Li Ji were sitting there motionless, and knew that it must be something serious, so he stopped and waited for Li Chengqian to speak.

When Li Chengqian saw this, he immediately said:

"Yuan Shouwei, I just ordered the Qianniu Guards to interrogate Dou Ziren and other people from the Sansheng Sect."

"No matter what I asked, Dou Ziren remained silent. The other believers confessed that it was not Dou Ziren who destroyed the embankment, but another Taoist named Cheng."

"Dou Ziren summoned the people to rebel today, and this Taoist was not present."

After hearing this, Yuan Shouwei suddenly remembered that Cao Ziyi once said that Dou Ziren's strength was average.

I didn't pay attention at the time. After I caught Dou Ziren, I thought I had caught them all.

But only now did I realize that a big fish had been missed, and it was a big fish that could turn rivers and seas.

If this person is not arrested, it is equivalent to hanging a sharp sword over everyone's heads, which may fall at any time.

After realizing the seriousness of this matter, Yuan Shouwei also looked at Li Chengqian and asked solemnly:
"Your Highness, do you want me to arrest that person?"

Li Chengqian also nodded seriously and said:
"Exactly. If you are a martial arts person, I won't bother you."

"After all, you haven't even had a full night's sleep during this time."

"But he is a person with profound Taoism, so I can only let you take action."

Yuan Shouwei didn't take it seriously and said directly:

"It's okay, this is what I should do."

"Did you ask about that person's current whereabouts?"

"If it's certain, I'll go now and eliminate the hidden dangers as soon as possible."

Li Chengqian nodded and said:
"I have already asked. It is not in the Sanshengjiao Taoist Temple in Bianliang City, but in Gaodian, the old Taoist temple of Sanshengjiao."

It's not too far away. Yuan Shouwei was thinking about it in his mind, and then asked:
"What's that Taoist's name and how strong is he?"

Li Chengqian picked up the tea on the table, took a sip and said:

"The Taoist's name is Cheng Gongying. You can't tell how old he is from his appearance. I didn't ask about the specific origin, but I know that this time, he came to Bianliang City a few days earlier than us." He rarely shows up at Gaodian. If anything happens to Dou Ziren, he always goes there to find him."

"As for strength, there is no standard in Taoism. According to the disciples of Sansheng, this person is like walking on the ground on the water. Many of Dou Ziren's Taoism are taught by him."

After Yuan Shouwei pondered for a moment, he said:

"That at least shows that this person's strength is stronger than that of Dou Ziren."

"In that case, his strength should be about the same as mine, or maybe a little stronger than me."

"Your Highness, I asked why he didn't come forward to pressure Dou Ziren today? Logically speaking, he should come forward for this kind of thing."

Li Chengqian shook his head and said:
"Dou Ziren also approached him in the early stages of the rebellion and wanted to ask him to come forward that day, but he refused. The specific reason is unclear."

"By the way, I heard that this man is extremely lustful. On the day he came, he asked Dou Ziren to find more than ten well-known 'duzhi' in Bianliang City to accompany him and sleep with him."

You are such an old boy, you are quite good at enjoying yourself. You are simply ruining the reputation of my Taoist family. I must bring you to justice. Yuan Shouwei, who secretly slandered, said without hesitation after hearing this:
"Okay, since that's the case, I'm leaving now."

Li Chengqian took a look at the weather outside the main hall. It was getting dark now. There were servants holding lamps in the governor's mansion, so he said:
"Yuan Shouwei, you need to rest for the night and go back tomorrow. There is no rush at this moment."

"Besides, I think that Taoist must have received the wind at this time, and it is very likely that he escaped. He should not come to Bianliang City to make trouble in a short time."

Yuan Shouwei shook his head and said:
"This matter will be done sooner rather than later."

"If he escapes, I can track him down as soon as possible if I go over now."

Li Chengqian also understood what Yuan Shouwei said was reasonable. After thinking for a while, he said:

"Then I will send two thousand soldiers to go with you."

Yuan Shouwei shook his head again and said:

"500 people will be enough. It is mainly used to encircle Taoist temples, search and track. We don't need too many people."

"Besides, Bianliang City is now a place where people are employed. If too many people are employed, it will easily delay this aspect."

Li Chengqian knew Yuan Shouwei's temperament, so he didn't insist, and immediately arranged it.After a while, 500 soldiers had assembled at the pier.

Yuan Shouwei took Zhongqing and Liu Miaozhen to the dock to join the soldiers.

As for Wu Yan, this society is still sleeping in the official residence.She was very tired during this period. Yuan Shouwei thought that there would be basically no danger in Bianliang City at this time, so he did not take her with him anymore.

When they arrived at the pier, everyone got on the boat and headed straight for Gaodian under the dim moonlight.

At this time, all the sundries on the surface of the water had been cleaned up, so even if it was sailing at night, it was extremely smooth, and it took about an hour to arrive near the pier of Gaodian.

After everyone got off the boat, they went to find out the specific location of the Taoist temple. After a short time, they came back to report.

The old Taoist temple of the Sansheng Sect is located more than ten miles north of Gaodian, in a place called Gaobeidian.

After Yuan Shouwei finished listening, he led everyone to sneak away again.

The walking at this time was obviously not as smooth as the boat trip.Although the floods have receded, the roads are still muddy and difficult to navigate, and there is still knee-deep water in many low-lying places.

After walking for more than an hour, I finally arrived at the place.

Some Tan Ma called the local Li Zheng out of the village.

It's not long since I just returned home this afternoon, and I'm still at home with a large family to tidy up the yard.
