Chapter 143: Too smooth, Li Jingxuan died!
Looking at Li Jingxuan lying on the ground, Jiang Chen returned the bow to the Huai'an guard beside him.
Then, he brought several Jinyiwei to Li Jingxuan.
"Master Li, if you had known this would happen, why would you have done it in the first place?"
"Humph, Jiang Chen, you are nothing but a eunuch."
"I won't accept defeat by you!"
Li Jingxuan, who was lying on the ground holding his thigh, looked at .
Still speaking to Jiang Chen with disdain.
"It's not up to you to decide whether you obey or not, come on!"
"Take Lord Li away and treat him well."
Facing Li Jingxuan's provocation, Jiang Chen waved his hand.
Seeing this, several Jinyiwei stepped forward.
He dragged Li Jingxuan away like a dead dog.
"Jiang Chen, you will die a miserable death!"
"Just wait, the Regent won't let you go!"
Li Jingxuan, who was dragged away, was still unwilling to give up and shouted loudly.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen could no longer hold back the anger in his heart.
He turned around, chased after him in a few steps, and drew the long sword at his waist.
He stabbed Li Jingxuan in the chest!
"Master Jiang, spare his life!"
Just then, a woman's voice sounded.
But Jiang Chen didn't hesitate at all, and stabbed the long knife in his hand directly!
As the long knife pierced his chest, Li Jingxuan began to cough violently.
A trail of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he fell to the ground powerlessly.
Looking at Li Jingxuan's body, Jiang Chen turned around.
He glanced in the direction of the voice.
It was Li Jingxuan’s wife——Liu Yanyan!
Looking at her husband's body, Liu Yanyan bit her lips hard.
"Master Jiang, you do this."
"Have you forgotten what the Regent told you?!"
Liu Yanyan's face turned extremely pale, and her eyes were fixed on Jiang Chen.
"I haven't forgotten, but I haven't forgotten what Li Jingxuan did either!"
"If it weren't for him, the threat of Japanese pirates in Jiangnan would have been solved long ago!"
"Someone, take the body away and bring this woman back!"
Having said that, Jiang Chen turned around and ignored Liu Yanyan.
Lin Yan had also brought the Huai'an Guards to capture a group of surrendered private soldiers.
"Damn it, these weapons and armor are on par with those of our Huai'an Guards."
Looking at the armor and weapons of those private soldiers, Lin Yan was surprised.
Then he turned around and kicked Li Jingxuan's body.
"Damn it, the purpose of withholding the county soldiers' food and wages is to support these useless people."
"What a dog official!"
After kicking Li Jingxuan's body, Lin Yan walked up to Jiang Chen.
"Master Jiang, since Li Jingxuan has been executed."
"Then I will take the people back first, but don't worry."
"I will leave one hundred brothers to obey your orders."
After hearing Lin Yan's words, Jiang Chen nodded.
"Then thank you, General Lin."
"Master Jiang, you are too polite. These are just the orders of the prince."
After saluting Jiang Chen, Lin Yan led the prisoners.
He left the village with 700 Huai'an guards, leaving 100 soldiers for Jiang Chen.
After Lin Yan took his men away, Jiang Chen was not idle either.
He commanded a group of Jinyiwei and Huai'anwei to rush into the courtyard.
Soon, countless gold, silver and treasures were moved .
Looking at the quantity, there are hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!
"Damn, this Li Jingxuan is really good at making money!"
"A mere governor actually hid so much silver."
Looking at the boxes of silver, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh.
However, Jiang Chen did not give up the search.
You know, when I first participated in the house search in the imperial capital.
He discovered the secret book of the peerless martial arts, Qiansha Gongfa.
Having this experience first.
Jiang Chen soon made a discovery in a bedroom that was suspected to be where Li Jingxuan usually lived!
"This Li Jingxuan actually hid this thing so well?!"
Looking at the secret box hidden under the bed, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh.
After groping around the bed for a while, Jiang Chen found the switch of the secret box.
“Crack—”
As Jiang Chen pressed the mechanism, the secret box slowly rose from the bed.
Looking at the items in the secret box, Jiang Chen was stunned.
The thick stack of banknotes and several letters immediately caught Jiang Chen's eyes.
Taking out the banknotes, Jiang Chen counted them carefully.
It was discovered that these silver bills were not silver bills, but gold bills!
The total amount of gold notes in Jiang Chen's hand is as high as 50,000!
Looking at these gold notes, Jiang Chen couldn't help but be shocked.
From this we can see the huge amount of money Li Jingxuan embezzled and the sophisticated means he used.
Jiang Chen carefully put the gold note into his arms and turned his gaze to the letters.
"Since it can be hidden together with these gold notes, the content of this letter must be very complicated."
As he spoke, Jiang Chen opened the envelope and began to read the letter.
The content of the letter shocked Jiang Chen again.
"Prince Huai'an actually knew about this matter!!"
After reading the letter in his hand, Jiang Chen quickly put it away.
Then, he strode out of the bedroom.
"You and the brothers from Huai'an Guard can search slowly. I have something to do and need to go back first."
"Yes, sir!"
Hearing Jiang Chen's instructions, Qi Lao Er bowed quickly.
Under the escort of ten Huai'an guards, Jiang Chen rode back to Huai'an City at full speed.
All the way to the prefectural government.
In the lobby of the prefectural government, Prince Huai'an was still processing paperwork.
Jiang Chen walked all the way to King Huai'an and placed the letter on the table.
"Master Jiang, this is...?"
"Your Majesty, just take a look at these letters and you will know!"
Facing King Huai'an's doubts, Jiang Chen pointed at the letter and replied.
Seeing this, King Huai'an didn't say anything. He picked up the letter and started reading it.
"So, you want to ask me about the whereabouts of the real Fourth Prince?!"
Having said that, Prince Huai'an put down the letter.
A powerful pressure emanated from his body and pressed towards Jiang Chen.
Feeling the power of Prince Huai'an, which was no less powerful than that of Eunuch De, Jiang Chen was not surprised.
It would be abnormal if King Huai'an had no cultivation at all!
"That's right, Your Majesty, please tell me the truth."
Jiang Chen bowed to King Huai'an and said lightly.
"How do you know that the current emperor is not of the previous emperor's bloodline?!"
After hearing Jiang Chen's answer, King Huai'an stared at Jiang Chen coldly.
Looking at that look, it was as if a wild beast was staring at its prey.
"I saved General Guan's daughter by chance."
"She also !"
Hearing this, the murderous intent in Prince Huai'an instantly disappeared, and he sat down on the chair behind him with a look of loss.
"I thought the teacher's family was dead, but I didn't expect that my junior sister would be saved by you."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen was stunned.
He didn't expect that General Guan would actually be the teacher of King Huai'an.
"Master Jiang, I want to know where Junior Sister is now?"
