Report to your majesty, the prince is courting death again

Choice?

Li Ergou was stunned.

Do you look like you are giving me a choice?

If I dare to say no now, I will probably lose my head on the spot, right?

"I... I choose to live, I hope you keep your promise."

Li Ergou gritted his teeth and did not dare to bargain with Xu An.

As long as he survived, if he was lucky enough to wait until the emperor issued a general amnesty, he would have a chance to come out.

"Congratulations, you made the right choice."

Xu An was not surprised by Li Ergou's choice, because he did not need any merit to pave the way for his future.

What's more, now the old man Yuan Kangdi is forcing him to become a lone minister.

Well, although the fate of a lone minister is generally not very good... but who is he? Is the dignified emperor who travels through time afraid of an emperor?

If you make me angry, I will rebel against you!

Ahem, just kidding, just kidding, I can't have this idea, otherwise I will be killed by Xu Xiao first...Xu An quickly dispelled the thought in his mind and said, "Where is the account book?"

"The account book... is buried under the stone mill in my house."

After saying this, Li Ergou collapsed on the ground, as if his spine had been pulled out.

Originally, he wanted to threaten Xu An with this information, but he didn't expect to be threatened by Xu An first.

Xu An recalled that there was indeed a stone mill in the courtyard of Li Ergou's house.

At that time, he thought it was weird to put the stone mill in the corner. Who would put the stone mill in the corner? It's not easy to pull the mill!

Unexpectedly, it was deliberately piled up to hide the account book.

"Zhan Peng."

Xu An turned his head to look at Zhan Peng.

Zhan Peng immediately bowed and said, "I will do it immediately."

"Before you do it, do one thing first."

Xu An stared at Zhan Peng and said, "From now on, block the entire yamen. No one is allowed to enter or leave except you."

"In addition, the account book is handed over to you. After taking out the photo album, don't go back to the yamen."

"Find a secret place to hide. When I need you, you can come out again..."

Zhan Peng heard this and realized that the problem was extremely serious.

Who is Xu An? Xu Xiao's son, the emperor's most respected junior, even he felt it was difficult to deal with, so the risk of this matter can be imagined.

Zhan Peng gritted his teeth and breathed a little hurriedly.

He felt that he was ready, but at this time and after digesting this information, he still felt fear.

Fear was mixed with excitement that was difficult to conceal.

Fear was that if Xu An lost, they would all be buried with him.

Excitement was because if Xu An won, it would be a great achievement!

"I understand, take care, sir."

After a moment, Zhan Peng suddenly raised his head, clasped his fists and said, "I will definitely use my life to protect the account book!"

After saying that, he quickly left the study room, carrying Li Ergou, who looked like a dead dog.

Xu An was the only one left in the study room, and his face gradually became solemn.

To be honest, he really didn't expect that a human trafficking case would involve such a big thing. Now his head is simply a mess...

In the important area of ​​​​the capital, the court officials colluded with the Northern Di and sold women and children of Daqian.

This is creepy to hear!

"Where is Emperor Yuankang? Such a big thing, does he know?"

"The Embroidered Envoy and the Jinyiwei monitor the world, don't they have any news?"

"If Emperor Yuankang knew, could he tolerate such a thing? No, with Emperor Yuankang's virtue, he would definitely not tolerate it..."

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, don't mess around, calm down!"

Xu An took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

After closing his eyes and pondering for a moment, Xu An slowly exhaled a long breath, with a smile on his lips.

What do you want to do with Emperor Yuan Kang?

Even if it is his conspiracy now, I am already in the game.

I don't know how they want me to break the game, but as long as a man is not cold-blooded, he should know how to do it.

Don't think too much, just do it according to your heart at this moment!

Well, now I just want to kill Que Ying and Yelu Qi, no one can persuade me!

"Qi Zhaoyu, deputy leader of the Hundred Cavalry Division, sees the young master."

Just then, a cold voice came.

Xu Xiao's Hundred Cavalry Division?

Xu An's face was happy, and he looked up suddenly.

A middle-aged man was kneeling on one knee in front of the door.

The middle-aged man was dressed in black, with a cold face, majestic, and a look of keeping people away.

"Fuck, they're finally here."

Xu An stepped forward quickly and pulled Qi Zhaoyu up: "Tell me the situation quickly, otherwise I'll think your efficiency is not as high as that of the detectives."

"The masterminds behind the human trafficking case are Yelu Qi and Que Ying."

Qi Zhaoyu said without any hesitation: "The participants are Qin Dehai, Kong Renque, Xiao Yunqi..."

Qi Zhaoyu named more than a dozen people in a row.Xu An was stunned after hearing this.

He could ignore other people, but he didn't expect Zhang Anshi and Qin Dehai to get involved.

If he remembered correctly, Du Ruhua had sent this case to him to embarrass him!

Aren't Du Ruhua, Zhang Anshi and Qin Dehai in the same group?

Is this a professional teammate pit?

Xu An's mind was a little confused again.

"These people are all over the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Works, the Canal Transport Bureau, the military, the Procuratorate... All departments cooperate with each other and can easily use the canal transport ships to send hostages to the north."

"Most of these people are beautiful women, and some are children with strong physical fitness..."

Hearing this, Xu An's face had become gloomy, and he raised his hand to interrupt Qi Zhaoyu's words.

"Enough, it's useless to say these."

He said word by word: "Where is the evidence? I need evidence."

The most important thing now is evidence. As long as there is evidence, he dares to break into the palace to see Emperor Yuan Kang now.

As for the account book... the account book only involves Qin Xiaohu, and Qin Xiaohu is just a small figure, not worthy of Emperor Yuan Kang's personal questioning.

Moreover, if the account book is exposed, Que Ying can get himself out of it in a minute.

Li Ergou's testimony... the testimony of an ordinary citizen, who can believe it?

The chain of evidence cannot be closed, and the risk of this matter is too great.

Qi Zhaoyu said: "Most of the evidence has been destroyed, and the Baiqi Division is tracking the existing evidence... According to the latest intelligence, Que Ying will have the last transaction with Beidi tomorrow."

"After completing this last transaction, they should choose to lie dormant."

Xu An was stunned and understood what Qi Zhaoyu meant. Que Ying and Yelu Qi planned to send the last batch of people to Beidi!

What the hell!

Who are you looking down on?

Do you really think that Daqian has no one left?

Xu An stared at Qi Zhaoyu and said, "Save all these people, and also take down all the people responsible for transporting and receiving goods, especially the Beidi people. I want them alive!"

"Since they think Daqian has no one left, they can do whatever they want."

"Then I will tell them that Daqian's men...are not all dead yet!"
