The letter was not big, but it was filled with many contents written in tiny characters.

Li Xuan had night vision, and he could easily see the contents of the letter even on this dark and windy night.

But as he read the contents of the letter, his small eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

"My, these officials are too evil!"

After reading the letter, Li Xuan cursed with his eyes wide open.

Looking at the instructions on the letter, he finally understood what King Zheng had said before.

"Song Xunchun knew the law but broke it, and he should be executed."

They actually played a lot of tricks around this simple sentence.

First of all, it was inevitable to tip off the county government behind. Only by letting them know what happened in Jinghou County could they understand that this was a matter of life and death.

Then came King Zheng's instructions, and it was necessary to destroy all possible evidence.

In addition, other preparations had to be made.

The scapegoat should be prepared early. Now is a good opportunity to get rid of those stubborn officials who do not cooperate on weekdays.

If the evidence of the crime cannot be completely eliminated, mislead the key part and point the finger at another person.

If it doesn't work, mix the truth with the false and completely confuse the water. At least, the evidence in the hands of Emperor Yongyuan must not be as ironclad as it is today, leaving no room for rebuttal.

In the worst case, there are instructions in the letter, asking officials from all places to prepare for accidents such as fires as soon as possible, and burn all the places and people that should be burned.

The content of the letter can be summed up in one sentence: there must never be a situation like Jinghou County again.

If it can't be done, it is not unjust to be beheaded by Emperor Yongyuan.

King Zheng finally let them take care of themselves.

"We have to go back and report the news."

Li Xuan finally checked the surroundings and confirmed that there was no other existence before carrying the three people who were knocked unconscious on the horse, and then personally pulled the reins of the three horses and rushed to the other end of Jinghou County.

Xu Lang was there, leading a team, waiting to pick him up.

It was easy for Li Xuan, a kitten, to control three horses.

With the help of Yin-Yang Qi, the horses were very obedient.

Li Xuan also tried to meow a few times, but he really couldn't communicate with the horses.

He and Dabai were real relatives, but they still had to guess, not to mention crossing species.

Li Xuan was only able to communicate easily with Maoba and the others, and he was not much better than humans in communicating with other small animals.

It took more than half an hour for Li Xuan to go around the city and find Xu Lang and others to pick him up.

They saw Li Xuan riding on a horse, controlling the reins of the three horses with his paws in a proper manner, and stopping steadily in front of them.

"Master Xuan."

Xu Lang called out, and hurried forward to take the reins from Li Xuan's hand. The other flowery eunuchs also hurried forward to control the three unconscious men in black.

After confirming that there was no problem, they escorted the three men in black back to the city quietly.

Emperor Yongyuan occupied the county government office, so the city gate closest to the county government office was also under the control of the flower-clothed eunuch.

In fact, with Li Xuan leading the way, it would not be a problem to take the flower-clothed eunuch to find King Zheng's men.

But Emperor Yongyuan did not want to start at this time.

This place is too close to the capital, and King Zheng must be timid.

If we startle the snake now and make King Zheng alert in the back, it will be a bit of a loss.

Just like King Zheng seeks a righteous reputation, Emperor Yongyuan also needs to find a reasonable reason to deal with King Zheng.

Of course, the premise of all this is the strength of both sides.

As long as one side's strength overwhelms the other, then any reputation will make sense.

Even those civil officials who are the most noisy on weekdays will naturally learn to shut up.

After returning to the county government office smoothly, Li Xuan directly asked Xu Lang to wait outside the door with the three men in black, and he went in to report the results of tonight's mission.

In the room, Emperor Yongyuan, who had received the news long ago, had already gotten up, wearing the familiar dragon robe.

The two stewards were quietly waiting on the side.

"Ah Xuan, what's the matter?"

Li Xuan immediately jumped onto the table, took out the letter he had intercepted, and then repeated everything he had learned today.

He even used the fire attribute true qi to control the qi and transform into a shape, and imitated the special sign language of King Zheng and his attendants.

Watching Li Xuan raise his two front paws, carefully transform into a pair of flaming palms, and copy the sign language one by one, the tired Emperor Yongyuan couldn't help but smile.

The content of this sign language, Emperor Yongyuan and the two stewards couldn't understand it.

It can be confirmed that this thing was created by King Zheng for private communication.

It seems that he has also made a lot of preparations for rebellion, otherwise who would specially create such a thing.

As for the specific content, Li Xuan thought that the letter should have explained almost everything.

Emperor Yongyuan took the letter and frowned after reading it.

He knew that King Zheng was not that easy to deal with, but he did not expect that the other party would come up with a countermeasure so quickly.

Emperor Yongyuan has collected a lot of evidence through the secret agents of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in recent years.

But there are not many people who have such ironclad evidence as Song Xunchun of Jinghou County.

The reason why he was able to go so smoothly today was mainly because of Song Xunchun's chief clerk's rebellion against him.

Emperor Yongyuan had been preparing this chess piece for a long time. Although it was a pleasure to use it today, if it does not have the same effect later, the southern tour may end in a tailspin, and his prestige will be greatly damaged.

But Li Xuan believed that Emperor Yongyuan must have made more than just these preparations.

Li Xuan had heard about the southern tour last year.

He had been planning for so long, and it was definitely not to embarrass himself.

Now in the first game, it seems that King Zheng underestimated the enemy of Emperor Yongyuan. He didn't expect that the game would be so exciting.

Song Xunchun was beheaded on the spot, and King Zheng also lost a lot of face.

But what’s more important is what’s behind. The one who laughs last is the real winner.

Emperor Yongyuan read the letter and handed it to the two general managers for circulation.

Soon the whole room of people and cats had unified the current message.

"Zhao Feng, you immediately interrogate the people Ah Xuan captured and see if you can pry anything out from their mouths."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhao Feng immediately took the order and took over the three men in black from Xu Lang outside the door.

"How is the evidence prepared for the next county seat?"

Emperor Yongyuan turned to Manager Shang and asked.

"Your Majesty, although there is no strong witness, the physical evidence is complete."

"As long as they are not ordered by King Zheng, it shouldn't be a problem to capture them."

Manager Shang has always been cautious in his words, so he is very confident when he says this.

"If the next county is captured, King Zheng will realize that the letter was not sent."

Emperor Yongyuan pondered for a moment and then issued the order.

"Axuan, did you just say that there are many people in black near the post house?"

Li Xuan nodded.

"Are there any masters who are above the third level among them?"

"No meow." Li Xuan was sure of this.

"If there are masters who are above the third level, they will be easily detected, meow."

Emperor Yongyuan's southern patrol team included many masters of the third rank.

Unless the opponent has practiced special skills, it will be difficult not to be noticed.

King Zheng probably also took this into consideration, so he arranged the guards near the post house to be at the third level of strength.

If Li Xuan's guess is correct, the four servants should be at the peak of the fourth grade.

The other men in black are at the fifth level. Although their strength is not top-notch, their numbers are sufficient.

Even if something happened, it would be enough to wait for the reaction of King Zheng's experts.

Moreover, King Zheng himself should have many life-saving means.

If he dares to follow the southern patrol team, he must have his own confidence.

Otherwise, King Zheng himself knew very well that this was the perfect opportunity for Emperor Yongyuan to get rid of him.

Through the rules on the surface, Emperor Yongyuan could weaken the power around King Zheng to the limit.

But in contrast, Emperor Yongyuan also put himself in danger.

The outside here is no better than the palace, and the possibility of accidents is greatly increased.

Both of them have begun a life-threatening hand-to-hand combat.

"Okay, Ah Xuan, please show the way to Mr. Shang and lead him to deal with the men in black near the post house, and then send a signal to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to clean up the mess."

"Then, you come back and resume your life."

"Shang Lao, you can go directly to the next county seat, capture the corrupt officials in charge, and wait for our arrival in the city."

“When we arrive, we will capture these criminals who are ‘fleeing in fear of crime’ and I will sentence them in court.”

Emperor Yongyuan already had a plan.

"Aren't you afraid of disturbing the grass and alerting the snake?"

Li Xuan asked puzzledly.

Emperor Yongyuan had given repeated orders before, telling him not to easily conflict with Prince Zheng and to focus on covert operations.

Now he suddenly changed his style and planned to attack King Zheng's people directly.

"No, we are not trying to capture King Zheng, but we are trying to scare them."

"Scare those ministers who are under the wings of King Zheng."

"Remember, don't touch the people inside the post house. Kill everyone outside the post house. Then those corpses will be neatly placed in front of the post house."

Emperor Yongyuan's eyes flashed with cold light.

Li Xuan asked no more questions and immediately took action with Manager Shang.

I don't know where Zhao Feng went with the three men in black, but they have long disappeared.

Li Xuan and General Manager Shang came to the post house. At this time, in the dead of night, the whole Jinghou County was quiet.

Li Xuan turned on his senses and found that there were many people in black around the post house, and he felt relieved.

He first pointed out the locations of all the men in black to Manager Shang, and then planned to take action.

But at this time, Manager Shang stopped him.

"Axuan, don't worry yet."

Manager Shang stabilized Li Xuan, and then asked: "You said before that you have understood the magic skills of the Fire Demon of the Western Regions. How much can you learn from it?"

Li Xuan knew that Manager Shang wanted to mess with Prince Zheng again, so he thought about it and said honestly:

"To deal with these guys below, it's better to learn how to deal with them, but if there are upper-level third-level masters who are familiar with the fire demons of the Western Regions, their flaws may still be seen."

At this time, the surroundings were silent, with one person and one cat communicating through sound transmission.

Hearing Li Xuan's answer, Manager Shang immediately smiled: "That's enough. Prince Zheng will not have the opportunity to carefully inspect these corpses."

Manager Shang had already said this, and Li Xuan knew that he couldn't be lazy later, so he had no choice but to nod his head resignedly.

"Then help me control them. The moves of the Western Region Fire Demon are relatively loud."

Then, Li Xuan and Chief Shang cooperated.

Manager Shang was responsible for using illusions to control the men in black, while Li Xuan used subtle moves to harvest them as much as possible.

But he has not practiced the Jihena Demon Flame enough, so he can only imitate it three or four points with the special talent of Yin-Yang Qi.

But the power is not reduced at all, and it can kill these black-clothed men with the strength of the fifth rank one at a time.

After all, the Western Region Fire Demon's skills are mainly based on rapid bursts, and Li Xuan's Yin-Yang Qi has the special effect of endless life, which directly makes up for the defects of this magic skill.

If this magic skill falls into the hands of others, they must sacrifice human blood to refine the magic flame.

As long as this is done, it will definitely cause a lot of noise.

But Li Xuan saved this trouble with Yin-Yang Qi.

Yin-Yang Qi can evolve into all the energy in the world.

As long as Li Xuan knows the existence form of this energy, he can slowly learn to evolve.

Therefore, when the Jihena Demon Flame came into Li Xuan's hands, it directly avoided those harmful training methods and became an ordinary skill.

But all the characteristics of the magic skill are not missing, such as fast improvement and great power.

When Li Xuan and the chief monk were halfway through killing, they really couldn't suppress the noise any more.

The men in black noticed something was wrong and were about to organize a counterattack, but they were met with a more fierce attack.

After Li Xuan and the chief monk didn't need to cover up, they killed very quickly.

The men in black didn't react and retreated, leaving corpses all over the ground.

At the same time, the four attendants guarding King Zheng also noticed something was wrong.

The two gatekeepers turned and went into the house, waking up their companions to protect King Zheng.

They acted very quickly and guarded King Zheng tightly.

"Your Majesty, something happened outside."

King Zheng was a light sleeper and woke up immediately.

He had just sat up from the bed when he heard the sound of arrows outside the window.

This strange sound of arrows immediately made King Zheng frown.

"Let's see what's going on."

King Zheng had just finished giving the order when someone outside shouted.

"There is an assassin!"

Prince Zheng was stunned. He did not think that Emperor Yongyuan would be so anxious, so he was even more confused about the situation.

"Let's go down and take a look."

Prince Zheng went downstairs with four attendants, and found that many officials were also woken up.

Some teams of eunuchs in flowery clothes came outside the posthouse and surrounded the posthouse.

It was just that they shouted to catch the assassin. Those who did not know thought they were going to besiege the posthouse.

Prince Zheng snorted coldly, knowing that this must be a trick of Emperor Yongyuan.

He really did not believe that Emperor Yongyuan would dare to do anything to him in this situation.

Prince Zheng was confident that if he died unexpectedly, Emperor Yongyuan would not be able to keep his country.

"Why is there so much noise?"

Prince Zheng frowned and asked a eunuch in flowery clothes who led the team in front of him.

"Your Highness Prince Zheng, there are assassins around the posthouse and they are being hunted. Please stay patiently in the posthouse and wait."

Xu Lang replied politely.

"Assassin?"

"Everything is fine, there's no need for assassination..."

Prince Zheng hadn't finished speaking when he saw the eunuchs in flowery clothes carrying the bodies of the men in black and placing them in front of the inn.

These were all Prince Zheng's men, so he recognized them at a glance.

But what shocked him even more was the wounds left on the men in black.

The bodies that were blown to pieces had black wounds carbonized by high temperatures.

Prince Zheng had seen this method before.

"How is it possible!?"
