The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 689 It's time to die! (two more)

When Nangong Li returned to the mansion, he immediately called his confidant guard over and asked him about the progress of the investigation.

The confidant guard looked puzzled: "General, there are too many places to check, and it's only been a day... Even if we go to the above-board household registration department to check the household registration, it will take several days, won't it?"

This is the truth. It is not that simple to investigate a person's information.

Although domestic household registrations and foreign household registrations are collected separately, the problem is that there are many foreign household registrations, and the Ministry of Households will not really bring foreign household registrations to them for investigation.

In fact, anyone who has been to the Juju match will not find the name Xiao Liulang unfamiliar, but the circle is like a mountain, and Nangong Li doesn't pay attention to Juju. Xiao Liulang, a freshman from Zhaoguo with Ju Sai's style of painting.

It's not that Nangong Li doesn't understand the difficulties of his subordinates, but he also has his own difficulties.

The prince didn't even tell the Han family about the assassination of Xiao Liulang, and he entrusted him with a heavy responsibility. As a result, he failed in Zhaoguo and let people run under the monarch's nose.

If the monarch finds out about this, they will all be fucked!

Nangong frowned and said, "I don't care what method you use, you must find Xiao Liulang within three days!"

The confidant guard felt bitter, let alone three days, even thirty days may not be able to accomplish it.

With so many people in Shengdu, finding a Xiao Liulang is like finding a needle in a haystack.

The confidant guard sighed: "It would be great if there are people from us in the household department."

Hubu Shangshu belongs to the Wang family, and there has never been much intersection with the Nangong family. The Wang family is a truly century-old prosperous family, and the strength of the family is even higher than that of the Han family, ranking first.

If it wasn't for Concubine Wang Xian not being able to give birth to a son, who would have been the heir apparent at the beginning.

It is also difficult to sneak into the household registration department to check the household registration. The Nangong family has masters, and the Wang family also has experts.

Nangong frowned: "If you have time to talk nonsense, why don't you hurry up and find someone!"

"Yes!"

The confidant guard hurriedly retreated.

Nangong closed his eyes tightly.

He must find Xiao Liulang as soon as possible and kill him!

The prince has already disappointed him once, and he cannot be disappointed a second time!

Before Nangong Li went back to his room to rest, he thought inexplicably about his youngest son who was injured from the fall. He hadn't visited him for two days.

He thought for a while, then turned around and went to Nangong Lin's yard.

Nan Gonglin didn't know that his father was coming,

Lying on the bed without any image, while shaking his legs, he leisurely listened to the boy's talk about the shooting match: "Are you sure? Tianqiong Academy lost?"

The little fellow smiled and said: "Sure, sure! Young master, I went to see it in person, oh, it's a miserable loss!"

Nan Gonglin patted his thigh gloatingly: "A group of people who are overconfident, and don't even look at who opened the Canaan Academy! That's the Academy of the National Teacher Hall!"

The little servant said flatteringly: "Young master's words are very true!"

Nan Gonglin picked a grape from the tray held by the maid kneeling by the bed, threw it into his mouth and said, "By the way, how did that Xiao Liulang get so angry?"

The boy said, "He didn't go."

Nangong Lin frowned: "What do you mean?"

The boy explained: "It means that I didn't go. On that day, even Mu Chuan, who had just recovered from his injury, played, but Xiao Liulang didn't show up from the beginning to the end. The little one asked afterward, and it seemed that...Xiao Liulang was sick. , was seriously ill and could not come to the game."

Nangong Lin smiled happily: "It's what you deserve! Xiao Liulang also has today!"

"It's not...Master!" The little servant said halfway, when he suddenly saw Nangong Li standing at the door, his face turned pale with fright, and Fu got down.

"Father!" Nan Gonglin hurriedly put away his bad manners, sat up in a well-behaved manner, and waved his hand at the maid beside him calmly.

The maid put away the fruit plate, stood up, and gave a stern salute to Nangong: "Master."

Nangong Li felt angry when he thought of his son's cynical appearance just now, but in the end he saved face in front of the servants: "You all step back."

"Yes." The boy and the maid walked out in a hurry, and the boy didn't forget to close the door for them.

Nan Gonglin asked, "Father, it's so late, why are you here?"

Nangong glanced at him coldly: "You are recuperating at home, that's why you don't go to the academy. Is this how you recuperate?"

"I..." Nangong Lin rubbed his sleeves guiltily, "I'll stretch... my muscles and bones."

It is not the most irritating thing to catch a child making a mistake, but he refuses to admit it after being caught.

Nangong Li really wanted to slap him, but he raised his hand, and Nangong Lin was so frightened that he quickly covered his head with his hands.

Seeing the scar on his wrist, Nangong Li suppressed his anger and let go: "Go back to the academy tomorrow!"

"Oh." Nangong Lin reluctantly agreed.

Nangong sternly shouted: "What's your attitude!"

Nangong Lin shivered in fright, and hurriedly said, "Go! I'll go! I'll definitely go!"

Nangong Li asked: "I just heard you mention a name, Xiao Liulang, who is this?"

"Oh, he, a man from the country." Nan Gonglin never told his family the truth about his injury. One was that his father didn't allow him to cheat in betrothal, and the other was that cheating was fine, and he threw himself down, which was a shame.

Therefore, everyone in the family thought it was just an accident, and did not bother to inquire about any of the strikers on the court.

Nangong Li's eyes froze slightly: "Which one is going to the country?"

Nan Gonglin thought for a while: "It seems... Zhao Guo or Zhao Guo? I don't remember."

Nangong Li slowly clenched his fists: "New here?"

Nangong Lin nodded: "Yes."

"Which academy?" Nangong asked sharply.

Nangong Lin said: "Sky Vault Academy, it's because they scored the last game, and they were brutally tortured by Canaan Academy."

Tianqiong Academy, Xiao Liulang, a native of Xiaguo.

Heh, there is really nowhere to look for, and it takes no effort to get it!

Xiao Liulang, your time of death has arrived!

...

Gu Jiao returned to the house.

It was getting late, and Mrs. Nan was waiting for her in the main room doing embroidery. Mrs. Nan was not only poor at cooking, she was also stupid in needlework, but she is now a mother. Learn everything.

"Jiaojiao is back." She put down the embroidery in her hand, "Haven't you eaten yet?"

Gu Jiao said: "I've already eaten, Mrs. Nan, you should rest earlier."

"After embroidering this, I'll go to bed. How do you think I'm doing?" Mrs. Nan showed Gu Jiao the results of her whole night's embroidery.

To be honest, Gu Jiao hasn't seen a needleworker who can compete with her aunt for a long time.

"...I have made progress." Gu Jiao said without changing her face.

Nan Shiniang smiled happily: "Really? I think so too."

After receiving the praise, Master Nan became more energetic and began to embroider energetically.

Gu Jiao hesitated to say anything, forget it, as long as the teacher is happy.

Gu Jiao went to Gu Yan's house.

Gu Xiaoshun had already fallen asleep, and Gu Yan slept lightly, or he hadn't slept all this time.

Gu Jiao touched his forehead: "I said I will come back."

"Hmm." Gu Yan made a soft nasal sound.

"Go to sleep." Gu Jiao said softly.

...

Before dawn the next day, Nangong Li got up. If it wasn't too late last night and the inner city gate was closed, he might have killed Tianqiong Academy in the middle of the night.

The moment the Nanner City Gate opened wide, Nangong Li drove out in a carriage.

Although Xiao Liulang is just a frail scholar, he is as cunning as Xuan Pinghou, and he is worried about handing it over to his subordinates, he wants to kill him himself!

Nangong Li's carriage arrived near the academy.

The coachman was his confidant bodyguard. He disguised himself so that no one could recognize his real face.

"Go and ask." Nangong Li said.

"Yes!"

The confidant guard jumped out of the carriage, came to the gate of Tianqiong Academy, handed the gatekeeper a bunch of knives and coins, and said with a smile: "My little brother, I am from Wuyue Academy, my young master admires Mr. Xiao very much, and I want to get acquainted with you." As soon as I get to him, I'll come to find out, is Mr. Xiao Liulang here?"

The boy took the knife coin and said, "Young Master Xiao won't come to the academy today, your trip is wasted."

The confidant guard was slightly taken aback, then asked with a smile, "Can I ask where he went?"

The boy said: "He has entered the palace to see the king!"

The confidant guard turned pale with shock: "What, what? See the monarch?"

"Is this true?" On the carriage, Nangong frowned sharply after hearing the report from his confidant guard, "Why would he go to see the monarch? The monarch will not casually meet a servant from the country."

The confidant guard said: "The boy said that it seems that they lost because of the knockout match, but Canaan Academy exchanged rewards with them, and Canaan Academy took away 10,000 taels of gold, and they got the qualification to enter the palace face saint .”

If Xiao Liulang went to other places, Nangong Li could still wait for him to come back.

But Xiao Liulang went to the palace and met the king.

Nangong gritted his teeth: "Don't let him see the monarch! Go back to the inner city!"

...

On a luxurious carriage heading to the inner city, except for Mu Qingchen, the four players from Tianqiong Academy were all there.

Mu Chuan touched his forehead which was still aching, and asked strangely: "Liulang, didn't you say you didn't want to enter the palace? Why did you change your mind again?"

"Oh." Gu Jiao lowered her eyes and looked at her hands, "I thought about it, it's not bad to go to the palace."

Nangong Li, if you want to kill me, come to the palace and kill me!
