The experience of living in the cold palace

Li Xuan looked uncertain.

When he came to Wang Wenliang this time, he actually didn't expect to find out any secrets.

I just want to know something about the Marquis of Huai'an.

But I never thought that Wang Wenliang would make a shocking revelation.

This really shocked Li Xuan.

I thought I had caught a thief, but I never thought of stabbing the old man.

Wei Guogong, Jin Yiwei, and Dongchang, just to name a few, are all capable of standing alone.

The first is the book of Wei Guogong Xu An.

The Duke of Daqian is the highest title, and there are only seven Dukes still alive.

Each of these seven people has made great contributions to Daqian.

Moreover, all of them were canonized by the previous Daqian Emperor.

Today's Emperor Qian has never consecrated a duke at all.

Even the Martial Saint Wu Shengtian, who resisted the invasion of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom in the north and established an unparalleled feat, was only granted the title of Marquis of Zhenbei.

The Duke of Wei, Xu Anshu, was the oldest among the seven Dukes and was already close to being an octogenarian.

However, he is getting stronger and stronger. After retiring from the position of Taifu more than ten years ago, he has continued to serve as the governor of Zhongzhou and Yunzhou, and he has great prestige in the court.

Even the chief minister of the current cabinet must be respectful when meeting him.

As for Dongchang and Jinyiwei, there is no need to say more.

Both are equivalent to sharp swords in the hands of Emperor Qian, and their power is equally horrifying, and all civil and military officials are afraid of them.

Li Xuan never expected that the treason case of Anyuan Marquis Zhao Feilong would involve these behemoths.

only.

Li Xuan suddenly thought of another question.

According to Empress Zhao, the treason case of Marquis Anyuan occurred six years ago, when Wang Wenliang was only ten years old.

How can you know these things when you are older?

now.

Wang Wenliang no longer showed frivolity and cynicism in front of outsiders just now, but showed a bit of sophistication:

"You're wondering why I know this at such a young age, right?"

Li Xuan glanced at Wang Wenliang and said, "Indeed, such secrets are no small matter. The young Marquis was only ten years old, and your father would definitely not tell you this."

After this conversation, he discovered that the young Marquis was not as idiotic as he thought.

The previous frivolity and unruliness were most likely a disguise.

However, this does not mean that the young prince can know such secret things.

After all, there is a price for being a fool, that is, there is no way to improve yourself and build your own power.

Not to mention having his own intelligence network.

Then, it is impossible for the young Marquis to investigate such secrets by himself.

It is impossible for the Marquis of Huai'an to take the initiative to talk to the young Marquis about such things.

So where did this news about the young marquis come from? !

Wang Wenliang did not hide it, but directly solved Li Xuan's doubts:

"Of course my father would not tell me about this, but I saw it myself. The night before Uncle Zhao's accident, Wei Guogong Xu Anshu and Jin Yiwei Commander Li Xingchen came to my house secretly. That night, I happened to get up. Saw it by accident.”

There was a pause.

He continued: "The next day, Shangguan Rou, the deputy factory supervisor of the East Factory, also came to see my father. After that, Uncle Zhao was convicted of treason."

"So I say that Uncle Zhao's case is inseparable from these forces."

"Also, although Jinyiwei and Dongchang both work for the emperor, they have always had disputes with each other and are not harmonious. However, they both came to my father before Uncle Zhao's accident, and they said that the emperor would not know about it. ?"

Wang Wenliang's eyes gleamed faintly, and he told what he saw, and at the same time also gave some of his analysis.

His tone was calm and unhurried, like a strategist who was strategizing.

It seems that these years of living like a proton did not weaken his will, but allowed him to master the art of nourishing qi.

Li Xuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he felt that there were a lot of things involved and there was some trouble:

"So, this is just your guess, little Marquis. There is no evidence that these people want to kill Anyuan Marquis."

Wang Wenliang regained his lazy temperament:

"You can say that, but strangely enough, after I got up that night, I also fell seriously ill. It took me seven days to get better. After that, my father was transferred to Dongzhou as the navy marshal. They took away my two brothers and left me alone. Haha, it’s okay to stay in the capital, where I can drink, go around, and live a happy life.”

Although he said this, Li Xuan still heard helplessness and unwillingness in his tone.

Li Xuan could see that Wang Wenliang was a man with certain ambitions and talents.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have remembered what happened six years ago so clearly.

It's a pity that the Marquis of Huai'an was transferred and kept him, and he didn't dare to show too much edge.

With someone as sensitive as his, it may not be a good thing to show too much talent.

On the contrary, it is easy to be suspected by others and put yourself in a dangerous situation.

Li Xuan said: "Thank you, Mr. Marquis, for informing me of this information. A little thought cannot be regarded as a sign of respect."

He thought for a while, took out a bottle of third-grade elixir from his pocket, and handed it to Wang Wenliang.

There are a total of four marrow-cutting pills that have the effect of washing hair and cutting marrow. They are pills that Li Xuan has specially used to practice in order to master the art of alchemy these days.

The value is not too high, only eight hundred taels per piece.

However, this elixir is of certain help to both acquired and innate realm warriors.

It can help remove impurities from the body, help strengthen muscles and bones, and lay a good foundation. It can also increase the speed of opening acupoints for Xiantian realm warriors.

This Wang Wenliang is not a fool, Li Xuan also has some thoughts of making friends, so he brought this elixir out to show his goodwill.

Maybe we can get some inside information from Wang Wenliang in the future.

Although the information Wang Wenliang provided this time was his own guess, it was also helpful to Li Xuan.

At least it gave Li Xuan some directions for investigation.

Wei Guogong, Jin Yiwei, Dongchang... Li Xuan thought that maybe he could start from Dongchang.

After all, he is now a factory worker in Dongchang, and it will be more convenient to contact Dongchang.

However, since this matter involves Deputy Factory Supervisor Shangguan Rou, even if there is an investigation, it must be done cautiously, so as not to alert the enemy.

Wang Wenliang took the elixir and opened the bottle, and immediately his nose was filled with the fragrance of elixir.

He couldn't help but look surprised: "Such a strong elixir fragrance is at least a third-grade elixir. You are really willing to give it up. Who are you and why can you come into contact with Sister Zhao?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I can provide the little Marquis with free elixirs to help him get out of this cage." Li Xuan pretended to be mysterious.

Wang Wenliang frowned, without any sign of joy: "We are not related. You must have some purpose in helping me like this. However, I don't think I can do anything to help you now."

"You don't need the young marquis to do anything. I just hope that the young marquis can provide me with more information about your father. Also, if the young marquis remembers anything about what happened back then, you can tell me. From now on, we will meet every other You can meet here once a month." Li Xuan smiled.

Wang Wenliang's eyes flickered: "If that's the case, then that's no problem."

He would often come to Tianbao Pavilion's auction, but he didn't mind meeting the person in front of him once a month.

Since the other party can provide third-grade elixir to help him, it is an opportunity for him.

Now, his father has made it clear that he doesn't want to care about him. If he wants to escape from the current prison, he has to rely on himself.

"Okay, then please tell me, little Marquis, what you know about your father, such as who is close to him, some habits, etc." Li Xuan smiled.

Next.

He and Wang Wenliang drank tea while chatting about the Marquis of Huai'an.

In Wang Wenliang's memory, the Marquis of Huai'an was quite strict and old-fashioned, and his strength had reached the master level six years ago.

He didn't know the specific number of blood transfusions.

Li Xuan listened to Wang Wenliang's story and had a preliminary impression of the Marquis of Huai'an.

He is an upright person and loyal to his duties. He was once a comrade-in-arms with Zhao Feilong, the Marquis of Anyuan. The two lived and died together and had a deep friendship.

Moreover, the Marquis of Huai'an seems to have served as Emperor Qian's personal guard for a period of time.

This is a great honor, and only those with a clean family background and strong military skills can hold this position.

After Li Xuan roughly understood the information about the Marquis of Huai'an, he didn't wait any longer and directly tore off the insulation notes and left the room.

Shopkeeper Liu had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Li Xuan coming out, he couldn't help but come up to him and said with a smile:

"Brother Li, are we finished talking?"

Li Xuan nodded slightly: "Well, thank you shopkeeper Liu for the introduction."

"Where is it? It seems that Brother Li and Mr. Xiaohou have reached an agreement?" Shopkeeper Liu asked tentatively.

Li Xuan nodded:

"We have reached a preliminary agreement, and we need to learn more about it in the future."

This is also to pave the way for the subsequent meeting with Wang Wenliang.

Although shopkeeper Liu was curious about what kind of business Li Xuan and the young marquis were discussing, he naturally couldn't ask more questions about such a secret matter:

"Then congratulations to Brother Li. When one day Brother Li uses his identity as the Young Marquis to establish a relationship with the Marquis of Huai'an, it will skyrocket."

He still felt that Li Xuan wanted to make friends with Huai'an Marquis Wang Qinghou through Wang Wenliang.

after all.

Wang Wenliang is just a dandy. Apart from this status, there is nothing worth spending time to make friends with.

"I just wanted to look familiar in front of the young Marquis. I didn't think so much." Li Xuan waved his hand, but did not deny Shopkeeper Liu's statement.

Upon hearing this, shopkeeper Liu felt more and more that his guess was correct, and he smiled and flattered a few more words.

After Li Xuan exchanged greetings with Shopkeeper Liu, he didn't stay too long and went to visit other businesses.

It's a pity that after visiting several shops, I couldn't buy any more lightning strike wood.

Li Xuan did not continue shopping. After making sure that no one was following him, he rode back to the yard.

After explaining some things to He Yuzhu, he didn't stay any longer and returned directly to the palace.

…

The next day.

In the palace of Empress Zhao.

Li Xuanping dismissed the palace maid, and then told Empress Zhao all the news he got from Wang Wenliang yesterday.

Hearing this, Empress Zhao pursed her red lips and said, "So, is it really possible that my father was wrongly accused?!"

Li Xuan nodded: "According to Wang Wenliang, there must be something fishy behind it. However, it is very troublesome to investigate this matter. The people and forces involved are extraordinary and it will take some time."

Empress Zhao’s sweet cheeks showed a look of contemplation, and she said:

"Xiao Xuanzi, after hearing what you said, I remembered that my father said something very strange to me before I entered the palace."

"What words?"

"My father told me that after letting me enter the palace, I must be careful about the queen."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

Li Xuan was startled.

Why is the Queen also involved?

Could it be that Zhao Feilong's case is related to the Queen? !

This plot is very important for the subsequent development. As expected, it is stuck. The update is a little late. Sorry~Thank you to the book friend "Coke Xian Xian Chicken Wings" for the reward, and thank you for your support~
