The Duke of Wei.

Li Yan arrived in front of the mansion and whistled.

After a moment, a golden and black figure flew over, and then a black shadow also fell from the sky.

The former was Xiao Hei, and Li Yan rubbed its head happily. The cat was getting bigger and bigger, and it became more and more comfortable to pet.

The latter is the falcon he asked An Shengan to select from the Western Market. It has a sharp beak and a sharp halberd, and its starry eyes stand tall on its shoulders. It is really majestic.

Li Yan was very satisfied with the eagle. Li Derjian learned that he had raised an eagle and hired several training slaves from the eagle workshop.

Li Yan didn't say that he was a friend of animals. All the hawk-feeding tricks were his younger brother. After thinking about it, he felt that training was not bad.

After all, he was not at home during the day. Compared with Shi Cong's whole day riding and Xiao Hei's day and night companionship in Liangzhou, the contact time of this later eagle was shorter and the talent bonus he received was weaker.

It's better to let the slaves be trained and raised first.

Of course, some methods cannot be used, such as "Shangsu", which is commonly known as boiling the eagle in later generations.

The eagle does not sleep during the day and will sleep peacefully at night. To keep the eagle awake means that it does not sleep at night and does not even have time to close its eyes.

Under normal circumstances, there is not one person doing the cooking, but three people, who are responsible for the night before, the night after, and the day. When Ying was so tired, he even slept during the day, but he still wouldn't let him.

It is quite a cruel act to keep the eagle from sleeping. In fact, it is to kill its wildness and make it easier for people to control and command it.

What Li Yan cultivates is spirituality. He is not afraid of pets being disobedient. Naturally, he does not want to kill his wild nature. The task assigned to the slave is to train the eagle to avoid arrows.

When he came back every night and had time, he would shoot the eagle for fun.

Although Ying'er couldn't speak, he felt that the other party enjoyed it.

But I'm a little tired today. I slept for an hour last night. I was busy with so many things during the day, and I actually worked overtime for the first time.

Li Yan lost his mind and touched its back: "No shooting today."

The eagle flapped its wings repeatedly and seemed a little happy.

Of course, Li Yan knew this was an illusion.

The amount of training cannot be reduced, as it will be taken to the Tubo battlefield later.

He added: "Double it in a few days and make up for today's amount."

The eagle stopped flapping its wings.

"You really understand!"

Li Yan laughed, felt much better, and entered the house.

After dinner, he came to Li Derjian's room and said seriously: "Sir, I want to know if anyone in the house buys cloud pills?"

After listening to Li Yan's explanation of the medicinal properties and terrible consequences of Cloud Pill, Li Derjian changed his expression and immediately called in the steward, gathered everyone in the house, and asked them one by one.

After a while, he brought Wuzi over, looking frightened: "Say."

Li Wulang, the chief historian of Yulin, said: "A year ago, I was recommended this product by a friend. I wanted to buy it to try, but I was short of money, so I gave up..."

It turns out that there are benefits to being poor.

Of course, this poverty is not for ordinary people, but for high-ranking nobles.

Other noble disciples might not even blink an eyelid when they took out hundreds of gold, but at that time, the Duke of Wei lived a relatively frugal life, and after all, he did not make any mistakes.

Li Derjian took good care of his son, let him leave, and said in a solemn voice: "If this is really what you expected, it will be dangerous!"

Li Yan said: "In fact, it's good. After all, the material of this elixir is precious and the quantity is limited. After all, only a very small number of people will take it."

Li Derjian sighed and said, "But the power those people can influence is unmatched by many poor people. If you want to touch Dou Decheng, you need to be prepared."

Li Yan sneered: "I have a plan on how to kill Dou Decheng. Once I get the account books and see who are the people who took the pill, I can start. I just want this cloud pill to disappear and stop poisoning others. But

Difficult to handle..."

Li Derjian said: "Just do your best. You have done this well enough. There is no need to force yourself!"

Li Yan smiled and said: "It's true that I have to crack down on drugs to solve a case. It's really not a loss for the saint to give me "Fang Lin Yao Lan". There are several ministers who can work as hard as me~"

Li Derjian also shook his head and laughed. The father and son spoke very directly: "You are too young and energetic, but when you work under a saint, sometimes you offend more people, which is really not a bad thing..."

Li Yan thought to himself that you had thought about Li Zhi thoroughly, and stretched out: "I'm going to bed, good night, sir!"

He returned to his room, used Xiao Hei as a pillow, and Ying'er lay beside the bed, and fell asleep together.

That night, countless noble people in Chang'an suffered from insomnia.

That night, he slept extremely soundly.

…

The next day, Li Yan rode his horse and came to work in the imperial city on time.

At the gate of the inner guard, I saw Cui Shouye.

His eyes lit up slightly, and he raised his voice and shouted: "Good morning, Mr. Cui Ge!"

Cui Shouye is old after all. When he first heard the enthusiastic young voice, he didn't react for a while and thought it was a junior from a close friend's family.

The main reason is that she is so affectionate.

When he turned around, he saw Li Yan, dressed in a scarlet robe, walking towards him with a smile. His chest suddenly felt tight, but he couldn't say: "Good morning, Li Ji."

He turned around and wanted to leave, but Li Yan had already walked up quickly. He was almost using his body skills to shoot Tianlang: "Lead Cui, please go slowly. I just have something to ask. What was the result of yesterday's interrogation of Dou Decheng?"

This is a big deal. If there were any results from yesterday's interrogation, Cui Shouye must have gone to his base camp, the Criminal Department. Why should he come here to suffer?

Cui Shouye also saw that Li Yan was deliberately causing trouble for him, so he simply didn't answer and walked inside.

Li Yan continued to follow and said with concern: "Is Cui Geling unwell? You are getting older, so you must take care of yourself!"

Cui Shouye has always been known for being old and strong, so you can't pretend that you don't hear these words: "I am very good, so I don't need to worry about Li Jiyi. The traitor has taken a breather, so he will naturally not confess. If Li Jiyi has any questions,

Go and see for yourself!”

Li Yan nodded slightly: "I think so. It seems that there won't be any big breakthrough on Dou Decheng's side for a while, but the Jiangnan murder case, um..."

Cui Shouye paused for a moment, pricked up his ears, and listened to Li Yan: "I'm going to go do some work, Mr. Cui Ge, take your leave!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After that, he went to his office. Cui Shouye listened to the footsteps walking away, but after all, he couldn't help but looked sideways.

It didn't matter, but he saw Li Yan looking back.

The two looked at each other.

One's eyes were clear and shining.

One's eyes were bloodshot and he was irritable and uneasy.

"let me see!!"

Putting on the long-lost invisible glasses, words came from the void.

An emotional villain rose from Cui Shouye's head.

The mouth is open, the eyebrows are raised, the nostrils are dilated, and the whole expression shows a defensive posture.

“Emotional feedback—fear!”

"The reasoning begins!"

"Afraid that the secret hidden in the Jiangnan murder case will be exposed."

"Correct reasoning!"

Cui Shouye immediately looked away, and Li Yan raised the corner of his mouth and turned his head.

"There is indeed something wrong with this old guy!"

Yesterday when the Ministry of Punishment was looking at the case file, Li Yan tried it out. Now he tried again and combined with his talent, he got the accurate answer.

Cui Shouye is inseparable from the Jiangnan murder case.

How deep the case is involved is hard to say.

But he suppressed the case, obviously not for the public good, but for some selfish reasons. At this moment, he was even more afraid that the secret would be exposed.

This clue is very valuable.

Because Li Yan could not go to Jiangnan, the situation in Runzhou could not be obtained remotely.

But Cui Shouye is right in front of him, so checking him is much simpler in comparison.

Li Yan walked to his workstation and found that Di Renjie, Guo Yuanzhen and Peng Botong were not there. It seemed that the fugitives raised by Dou Decheng had not been captured yet.

Qiu Shenji and Wang Xiaojie also seized physical evidence at the headquarters of the Dou Chamber of Commerce to calm their nerves and collect Yun Dan names in the West Market.

Kang Meng and Kang De's father and son in Liangzhou have been tracing the past movements of the rebellious Magistrate Cui during this period.

There was no one available.

Li Yan felt that this was not possible, so after handling official duties for half an hour, he strolled out and headed to Chongxian Hall.

Chongxian Pavilion is one of the two pavilions among the six schools in the Second Pavilion, and later generations better know its name as Chongwen Pavilion.

However, it was only after Li Xian was established as the crown prince that Chongxian Hall was renamed Chongwen Hall to avoid naming taboos. It is still its original name now.
