Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 828

"Cang Hai, what happened in the court hall?" Xue Xuan asked hastily.

Li Canghai shook his head, and after thinking for a while, he told a few people what happened.

After listening, several people were so angry that they almost jumped up.

"In the face of so many criminal evidences, he can still open up to Yang Guozhong, what a foolish emperor!" Chang Fengfeng cursed angrily.

Xiao Wu was taken aback, and hurriedly reminded in a low voice: "Brother Chang, you dare to scold the emperor, don't you want to live?"

"Such a muddled emperor, so what if he scolds him? I think the court is corrupt and the people are in dire straits. It's not the fault of those corrupt officials at all. The fault lies with the emperor!" Chang Feng said angrily.

Kang Xu frowned and said, "My lord, according to what you said, the reason why the Holy Majesty let go of Yang Guozhong is because Concubine Yang Guifei interceded for him? Could it be that the Holy Majesty doesn't even care about longevity?"

"The reason why the Holy Majesty ordered me to find the elixir of immortality is because he wanted to be with Concubine Yang Guifei forever. But if Concubine Yang Guifei forced her to die, the Holy Majesty would not live forever alone." Li Canghai said plainly.

"Confused! This emperor is so fucking confused! He is simply a big fool!" Chang Feng punched his fist vigorously and cursed bitterly.

Xue Xuan frowned and said: "Cang Hai, what's your plan now?"

Li Canghai said calmly: "I have submitted my resignation to the Holy Majesty, and I will leave Chang'an after dawn."

As soon as this remark came out, several people were struck by lightning.

"My lord... what did you say? You want to resign and go into seclusion?" Xiao Wu asked with wide eyes in surprise.

Li Canghai nodded.

"Why? My lord, why do you want to resign?" Xiao Wu asked anxiously.

Kang Xu frowned, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, now is the best time to deal with Yang Guozhong. Although we have failed this time, as long as we continue to investigate Yang Guozhong, we will definitely bring him down. Why are you here?" Choose to resign at this time? In this way, all our hard work in the past will be in vain?"

"This is the Holy Majesty's will, and it is beyond our power to change it." Li Canghai said.

"Your Majesty... why did Your Majesty ask you to resign?" Xiao Wu asked in disbelief.

Li Canghai sighed, and said: "Don't get into the reason. In short, I will leave Chang'an after dawn. From now on, the word Li Canghai will never exist again in the world."

When Kang Xu and the others heard this, they suddenly knelt down in front of Li Canghai.

"My lord, we will go wherever you go!"

Li Canghai helped the three of them up, and said: "I am the only one who resigned from office and went back to hiding. You have a bright future, so there is no need to follow me. From now on, you will be anonymous and no one cares about you."

Chang Feng wept and said: "Sir, I Chang Feng is a rough person, but I also know how to repay my kindness. You cleared up my grievances for my little sister and avenged me. From then on, I decided to follow my lord forever! I don't care about reputation, I will go wherever my lord goes!"

"Xiao Wu is too! Xiao Wu is a student of the adults. Wherever the adults go, Xiao Wu will go too!"

"My lord, I have been your book boy since I was a child. A Xu will follow you wherever you go."

……

Tears welled up in Li Canghai's eyes, he took a deep breath, and said, "With your words, I am satisfied. However, you cannot resign with me, you have more important things to do .”

"My lord, tell me! What orders do you have, we will do it even if we risk our lives!" Chang Feng said, wiping away his tears.

"Now, the most important thing is not to overthrow Yang Guozhong, but to deal with An Lushan's rebellion. An Lushan secretly recruited troops, but the Holy One believed that he would not rebel, and he didn't care about defense. I have already discussed with Jianning The king discussed that the king of Jianning should secretly contact the loyal ministers and generals in the court to deal with the rebels, and I want you to stay and help the king of Jianning!" Li Canghai said seriously.

"Such a fatuous emperor and such an incompetent court, why protect him? Just let An Lushan break into Chang'an!" Chang Feng said angrily.

Li Canghai frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Anlu Mountain rebelled, and the people of the Tang Dynasty will be caught in the flames of war. If we don't make preparations in advance, the people of the Tang Dynasty will definitely die! What I care about is not the court, but the people of the world! I will give you an order for the last time, and I hope you can promise me!"

The three of them looked at each other, and saluted Li Canghai one after another: "I obey you!"

"My lord, after you resign, what are your plans? How should we find you?" Chang Feng asked.

"I will stay on Mount Hua and monitor the situation. If you have any difficulties, you can come to Mount Hua to find me." Li Canghai said.

The three of them bowed in response, although they were a little bit reluctant, they had no choice but to retreat one after another to pack things for Li Canghai.

At dawn, Chang Feng brought a carriage.

After Li Canghai packed his things, he and Xue Xuan left the mansion in a carriage.

Outside Chang'an City, Shili Pavilion.

A middle-aged man wearing a cloak stood in the pavilion, as if waiting for something.

Li Canghai drove to Shili Pavilion, and walked in with Xue Xuan.

Seeing the two men coming, the man went up to meet them.

"Master Li, this old man has been waiting here for a long time."

Li Canghai clasped his fists in salute, and said, "Your Excellency, please come here."

"Cang Hai, who is he?" Xue Xuan looked at the man and asked suspiciously.

Li Canghai smiled calmly and said, "He is the person you have been looking for."

The man smiled, then took off his hat.

Seeing this, Xue Xuan was immediately speechless in surprise.

"Uncle Sun? Is it really you?" Xue Xuan said excitedly.

This person is none other than the Uncle Sun that Xue Xuan said, the 'Fearful Grandson' among the Twelve Golden Immortals.

"Uncle Sun, where have you been all these years?" Xue Xuan asked puzzled.

Fear Liusun smiled slightly, and said: "In these years, under the order of Mr. Taibai and the crown prince, I sneaked into Yang Guozhong's side and secretly collected all kinds of evidence of his crimes. It is only because it is a confidential matter that I have not told you. However, these I haven't seen you in years, the little Xuan'er from back then has now become a slim beauty!"

"You have been lurking beside Yang Guozhong all this time? What's going on? How did you and Cang Hai know each other?" Xue Xuan was even more puzzled.

Fear Liusun smiled indifferently, and then told Xue Xuan what happened.

It turned out that Li Taibai guessed that after Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong would also be a big treacherous official when he was afraid of leaving his grandson to escort Zhang Jiuling back to his former residence.

In order to deal with Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong and his ilk, he discussed with Prince Li Heng and made a plan, and let Filiusun sneak into Yang Guozhong's side and secretly collect his criminal evidence.

However, Yang Guozhong is cunning and cautious, and he still has doubts about the fearful grandson who joined his organization halfway, so he never really trusted him.

Later, fearing Liusun gained his trust, so Yang Guozhong sent him to follow Li Canghai and seize the elixir of life.

Fearing Liusun rushed to Shouling Village in advance, and pretended to be the old man Zhang.

Li Canghai didn't realize his identity at first, but the night before he led the crowd to find the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, Fearful Sun secretly contacted him and told him his identity.

Only then did Li Canghai plan to use the elixir to deal Yang Guozhong a fatal blow.
