Chapter 384 The Threat of Phoenix

Bingzhou.

A few days ago, the inspector Li Nuo came to Bingzhou and became a joke in the eyes of Bingzhou officials and gentry.

It is undeniable that his father, Li Xuanjing, the Minister of the Dali Temple, has a sway over Chang'an, and even the noble families have to be wary of him, but this is where the Jinyang Wang family is located. If a dragon comes, it must coil up, and if a tiger comes, it must lie down.

But they didn't laugh for a few days, and they couldn't laugh anymore.

A few days later, the inspector Li Nuo went and came back.

At the same time, the Wang family ordered to launch an evil eradication operation within the scope of Bingzhou.

The Wang family has been operating in Bingzhou for countless years, and there is nothing they don't know about the entire Bingzhou.

In one day, hundreds of criminals were arrested.

The county yamen in various places were ordered to arrest countless stubborn people and bullies.

For these people, the Bingzhou government office punished those who should be punished and sentenced those who should be sentenced, without any mercy.

No one knew what had happened, why the Wang family, who had protected them a few days ago, suddenly cancelled their protection and held them accountable.

Wang family.

In a courtyard somewhere in the mansion, Li Nuo slowly sipped the fragrant tea and flipped through a pile of case files on the table.

The number of people the Wang family helped him catch was more than ten times the number involved in the information Wang Duo gave him.

Compared with Li Nuo's previous hard visits, he didn't have to do anything these days. He just drank tea and wrote books every day, and someone would handle the case. Li Nuo only had to stamp the file.

It would be great if he could get this kind of treatment every time he went to a place.

When he realized that it was impossible to bypass the Wang family to deal with those prisoners, Li Nuo decided to use the power of the calligrapher.

Therefore, there was the sudden death of Wang Shuo, the car accident of Lu Xiu, and the other two people, one died in a brothel, and the other was crushed to death by a collapsed house. Under normal circumstances, these things require extremely sophisticated design and layout, but for calligraphers, it is just a matter of moving the pen.

However, he cannot use such means on everyone.

Most people do not know about the existence of the calligrapher, and will not associate it in that direction. However, one accident, two coincidences, three or four times can be explained by bad luck. If it happens eight or ten times, even a fool will know that there is a problem.

Besides, Li Nuo is powerless against those who have a little martial arts training.

The person who tied the bell must untie it. It is best for the Wang family to take action on the Wang family's territory.

At this moment, in another part of the Wang family, in a bright hall.

A man looked at Wang Yun, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but said: "Brother, the man surnamed Li has a life-and-death feud with the Wang family. Isn't it inappropriate for you to help him capture so many of our people?"

Wang Yun glanced at him and said lightly: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

The man immediately lowered his head and said: "That's not what I meant. It's just that Bingzhou is in a mess now. Many people in the family have opinions. We are losing money to help him in the bookstore..."

Wang Yun took a sip of tea and said: "I know that officials like Lu Hua, I will naturally not move. Give him some insignificant officials. Even if he is gone, I can quickly support new ones. As for the investment in the bookstore, how much money can be spent on printing books? My Wang family can't even afford this little money..."

The man didn't say anything after hearing this.

As long as the head of the family does things that do not involve the survival of the family, there is no need to explain to them.

Xuanxuan is his favorite, and Li Nuo just caught his weakness. They can only grit their teeth and treat their enemies as guests of honor.

Not long after, Wang Yun walked out of the hall.

Because of Li Xuanjing, he has always hated the people of the Li family.

But in the past few days, his impression of Li Nuo has changed a lot.

He is the most typical and pure Confucian scholar, with a noble spirit, thinking only of fairness and justice, and benefiting the people.

If he were Li Nuo, he would definitely use this as a threat to take advantage of the Wang family's weakness, but he was only satisfied with publishing a few books and asking him to help catch a few corrupt officials and kill a few bullies...

If his father had not stood on the opposite side of the Wang family, he would still admire Li Nuo very much.

The top scholar in six subjects, the fifth level of legalists, the fifth level of doctors, and the fifth level of Confucianists, the king of Zhao State, the mainstay of the court of Daxia, such a hero, there is only one in the continent, but it is a pity that he cannot be used by the Wang family...

At this time, a servant came over and said respectfully: "Master, someone from the Du family is here."

Wang Yun nodded and said: "Let the housekeeper entertain them first, I will go there immediately."

In order to ensure the purity of blood, the six major families often intermarry with each other. The husband he chose for Xuanxuan is Du Yun, the second son of the Du family. Du Yun is not only talented in literature, but also has good martial arts talent. At the age of 18, he has entered the realm of true qi early and has the hope of becoming a master in this life.

Xuanxuan was discouraged because of that strange disease and canceled her wedding with the Du family. Now that her illness is almost healed, their marriage should continue.

The people of the Du family should also come for this matter.

Wang family, in another exquisite courtyard.

The young woman sat in front of a bright mirror, looking at herself in the mirror. Although there were still some faint scars on her face, it was much better than a few days ago.

If she became ugly in the future, it would be better to let her die of illness.

The miracle doctor surnamed Li said that her illness would be cured in half a month at most.

By then, she would be able to have her former peerless beauty again.

At this time, a maid walked in quietly and said, "Miss, Mr. Du Yun of the Du family is here. Do you want to go and see him?"

"Brother Yun is here?"

Hearing this, the young woman stood up subconsciously, but sat back down the next moment, shaking her head and saying: "I still can't see him. I'm like this now. How can I see him? I'd better wait until I recover..."

The little maid responded and was about to leave. The young woman seemed to have thought of something, rolled her eyes, and suddenly said: "Wait..."

Wang family.

Within the main hall.

Wang Yun looked at a middle-aged man and said with a smile: "Xuanxuan had a strange illness before, and her appearance was completely disfigured. It was also to avoid embarrassing the Du family, so she canceled the engagement. However, her illness is almost cured. I I think her engagement with Du Yun can continue..."

Behind the middle-aged man, a handsome young man heard this and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "No matter what Brother Wang said, no matter what Xuanxuan's appearance is, the marriage contract between the Wang and Du families will not change. Don't you think so, Du Yun..."

The young man immediately responded and said with a smile: "This is natural. In my heart, I have long regarded Sister Xuanxuan as my wife."

The middle-aged man said: "Where's Xuanxuan? I haven't seen her in two years. She has undergone a major transformation. I wonder what the little girl has become now..."

Wang Yun shook his head and said: "Xuanxuan's illness has not been completely cured. Now that I can't even see you, I probably won't see you either."

As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from outside: "Dad, it's not good, my disease has relapsed again, and the miracle doctor said that my disease can no longer be cured!"

A woman ran in from outside. Her face and arms were covered with festering scars. Wang Yun's expression changed and he panicked: "How could this be? Didn't he say it can be cured?"

The woman turned to look at the young man named Du Yun and said movedly: "Brother Yun, I heard what you just said. Even if I become like this, will you marry me?"

Du Yun's face turned pale. If he wanted to spend his life with such a woman, it would be better for him to die.

The young woman walked towards him quickly, and Du Yun couldn't help but take two steps back, as if to avoid the plague.

The young woman trembled and said, "Brother Yun, do you even dislike me?"

Du Yun had a thousand thoughts in his mind. If her illness was cured, of course he would be willing to marry her, but what man would be willing to marry her like this?

The Wang family is powerful, but the Du family is not weak either. For the sake of face, he would not be so stupid as to sacrifice the happiness of the rest of his life!

He made a quick decision and said immediately: "Xuanxuan, let's wait until you recover from your illness to talk about the engagement!"

The young woman saw what he was thinking, took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, wiped off the carefully painted makeup on her face, and said calmly: "No, our engagement is cancelled, and no one should disturb us from now on..."

Wang Yun looked at this scene blankly and said: "Xuanxuan, this..."

The woman didn't even look at Du Yun and said, "Forget it, he doesn't really want to marry me anyway..."

The two Du family members stood there blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Seeing her leave angrily, Wang Yun looked at the two of them and could only say: "Brother Du, you have also seen that their marriage might as well end here..."

The middle-aged man glared at Du Yun, but now that the matter was over, he couldn't say anything more.

The Wang family suddenly said that they wanted to terminate the engagement, so he brought Du Yun to investigate.

When I arrived at Wang's house, I thought things had turned around, but I didn't expect that it would develop to this point in the end.

…

Li Nuo prepared today's medicine and came to Miss Wang's residence.

In fact, anyone can take this medicine, but the Wang family helps him arrest people and publishes books for him. He only needs to pass on the Qi to the Miss Wang family every day, and it will be over in three seconds, which makes him seem dispensable.

Wang Ruoxuan was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, rarely wearing a curtain.

Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)

Li Nuo put the medicine on the table in front of her and said, "Drink the medicine."

Wang Ruoxuan felt her mouth taste bitter just when she saw the bowl of concoction. She really didn't want to drink it and couldn't help but ask, "Can I not drink it?"

If she didn't drink, wouldn't Li Nuo be in vain?

He just said calmly: "If you don't want to recover, you don't have to drink it."

Thinking of her former prosperous appearance, she still gritted her teeth, picked up the concoction in the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp. Her whole face wrinkled up in pain. She didn't want outsiders to see her ugly appearance, so she could only lower her head as much as possible. .

Seeing that she had finished drinking the medicine, Li Nuo said: "Hand."

Wang Ruoxuan stretched out her hand, and Li Nuo held her hand, passing through a wave of medical energy, and the scars on her face and body faded a bit.

She lowered her head and glanced at Li Nuo out of the corner of her eye.

She used to wear the curtain, and every time she looked at him through the gap in the curtain, she could only see him vaguely. Today, because she was in a bad mood, she was too lazy to wear the curtain, and she saw his full face for the first time. I couldn't help but be surprised.

Unexpectedly, he was so handsome, much prettier than Du Yun.

Li Nuo let go of his hand, and Wang Ruoxuan immediately looked away.

At this time, Wang Yun walked in from the outside, bowed his hand to Li Nuo again, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li, for saving my little girl..."

Li Nuo waved his hand and said: "Everyone takes what they need. Miss Wang's condition has stabilized. As long as she takes the medicine on time, she should be able to recover in a month..."

When Wang Ruoxuan heard this, she frowned and said, "What? I have to take such a bitter medicine for a month. Is there any way to avoid taking the medicine?"

Li Nuo nodded and said: "Yes, but it requires more energy. It's okay to use the fifth-level doctor's energy to comb the body for half a month, but I don't have that much time. Bingzhou's case was investigated It's almost done, I still have to go to other states for inspection..."

Wang Ruoxuan grabbed Wang Yun's hand and begged: "Dad..."

Wang Yun could only look at Li Nuo and said: "Please, Mr. Li, stay in the Wang family for half a month longer. The Wang family will help you catch the corrupt officials and unruly people in the neighboring states. Mr. Li will also be able to travel less and be less tired... "

Li Nuo thought for a while and said: "Since the head of the Wang family said so, I would rather obey your orders than be respectful..."

The Wang family's sphere of influence extends beyond Bingzhou.

They have deep control over the entire Hedong Road.

The Wang family knows about the cases that Li Nuo can find out, and the Wang family also knows about the cases that he can't find out. As Wang Yun said, with the Wang family doing it for him, he can travel less and be less tired.

After channeling another burst of energy for Miss Wang, Li Nuo returned to his room and continued writing.

Don't take advantage of it, don't take advantage of it. As a big family, the credibility of the Wang family is unquestionable. They will not play tricks with him at all. They will arrest people when they are told, and publish books when they are told. Although it is impossible for them to bring down the key officials of the family. Sacrifice for him to practice, but the efficiency is much higher than Li Nuo checking alone.

In just a few days, he touched the barrier of the fifth realm of Confucianism.

Legalist cultivation is also growing rapidly.

If other aristocratic families are as cooperative as the Wang family, the semi-saint realm will be just around the corner.

After being treated twice today, Miss Wang walked back to the room, looked at her face in the mirror, and her face seemed to be brighter again, and she murmured: "He really has some abilities..."

The little maid on the side had little stars twinkling in her eyes and said: "Of course, he is an excellent number one scholar in six subjects. He went on a mission to the State of Zhao and supported a princess of the State of Zhao to become the queen. I didn't expect him. His medical skills are so good..."

Wang Ruoxuan looked at the mirror blankly.

She had seen many young heroes, and Du Yun was considered one of the best, but there was no way he could compare with this one.

What touched her heart even more was that Du Yun, her fiancé, looked like he was avoiding the plague when he saw her just now. But when an outsider saw her for the first time, he used himself without even thinking. hand, touching her ulcerated hand...

For a moment, he became a little more curious about the "Master Li" in his father's mouth.

She looked at her maid and said, "What else do you know about him? Tell me again..."

…

Chang'an.

In recent days, nothing major has happened in Chang'an.

What the people talk about most is where the inspection censor Li Nuo went and which corrupt officials he killed...

Of course, it is not the common people who are most concerned about these things, but the new Jinshi who are waiting for appointment.

The more Mr. kills, and the faster they kill, the faster they can fill up their positions.

Zhongshu Province.

Prime Minister Zuo looked at a letter with a look of astonishment on his face, not quite believing what the letter said.

Li Xuanjing killed the martial arts geniuses of the Wang family, killed the heirs of the Wang family, and killed countless Wang family officials, but now, Li Nuo actually lives in the Wang family, and the Wang family also helps him investigate cases and arrest people. This kind of thing is easy for anyone. Hard to believe...

However, thinking that it was him, nothing seemed impossible.

Li Nuo also said in the letter that he suggested that the imperial court re-enable Wang Duo, a former doctor in the Ministry of Civil Service Examination Department, and let him enter the Imperial Academy to be responsible for the affairs of the academy...

A smile appeared on Zuo Xiang's face. I believe it won't be long before he grows up to the point where he doesn't need anyone's protection...

Shangshu Province.

The right minister slowly put down the fold in his hand.

Inspecting places with Shang Fang's sword has some results, but it still cannot solve the fundamental problems of Daxia.

Where is the way out for the people?

Yuyin Pavilion.

In the room on the second floor, the white-haired old woman coughed heavily. The blood streaks in her palms caught Phoenix's attention. He looked at her and asked, "Are you injured?"

The old woman said solemnly: "These days, a mysterious force from the Great Xia court has been tracking us down. I almost fell into their hands. It must have been your rash action last time that attracted their attention. I can no longer stay in Chang'an." Already..."

Phoenix raised his eyebrows and asked, "You want to leave?"

The old woman glanced at Nightingale behind Phoenix and said, "Nightingale will return to Qi with me."

Fenghuang frowned and said, "What will you do with her when you return to Qi? If she stays in Chang'an, I will still be of use..."

The old woman just smiled faintly and said: "Qi is your home, I just took her home. What are you afraid of? As long as you work well in Chang'an and complete the tasks assigned to you with all your heart, you sisters will always meet again... …”
