Chapter 804 Beloved Mad Demon(1/2)
Chapter 804 Beloved Maniac
The saint's carriage happened to stop near a fork in the road.
Wei Xu did not meet her, but turned and ran away from another road.
In order to save Cheng Qingxue, the saint stayed up all night and spent a lot of energy. She was a little depressed.
So I didn't pay attention to Wei Xu.
But when Ambassador Lu went to the place where the fight took place and inquired about it, she found out that envoys from the Great Zhou Dynasty had arrived.
Just at the entrance of the palace, the princess who was getting married was kidnapped.
She suddenly realized that it might be the person who was riding the horse just now.
It's a pity that the other party has gone far away and I can't catch up.
On the other side, Xie Jinnian looked at Commander Lu's retreating figure, thought of the saint's words in his mouth, and suddenly remembered where the feeling of déjà vu came from.
Wasn't the person who snatched away Dazhou and his princess the same as Wei Xu who had been missing for many days?
In Southern Xinjiang, there were only a handful of people who had seen Wei Xu's true appearance. Apart from the saint and her confidants, there were only the King of Southern Xinjiang and his confidants.
Xie Jinnian is one of them.
He glanced at the minister of the Honglu Temple of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who was panting and walking towards us without leaving any trace.
When the other party was halfway there, a guard from Dazhou came forward and whispered a few words in his ear.
Honglu Temple Minister's expression changed: "Are you sure you read it correctly?"
The guard hesitated for a moment and said seriously: "I'm not sure. The body technique was too fast, and there was still some flour on the face. I didn't see it clearly, but I just thought it looked a bit like General Wei Xu."
"ah……"
The Minister of Honglu Temple fell into deep thought.
If it was Wei Xu, why did he capture Princess Hui'an?
He also injured so many Dazhou guards.
This doesn't seem like something he would do.
Wei Ting once announced the news that Wei Xu had been captured by the people from southern Xinjiang in the Jinluan Palace. Although it was not widely publicized among the people, the minister of Honglu Temple, who was the official of the imperial court, knew about it.
"So Wei Xu is still alive... No, I'm not sure that person is Wei Xu yet."
"Lord Wang."
Xie Jinnian walked over.
The five tigers had fallen back on his shoulders and stayed there obediently.
The Minister of Honglu Temple has just arrived in the royal capital and has not yet met Xie Jinnian.
Xie Jinnian deduced his identity based on his official uniform.
Xie Jinnian is dressed as a chamberlain, but he has a handsome appearance, a tall figure, and a demeanor that is eye-catching.
While the minister of Honglu Temple was wondering who the other party was, a guard from southern Xinjiang greeted Xie Jinnian: "Eunuch Jin."
Xie Jinnian nodded.
The Minister of Honglu Temple came to Southern Xinjiang to do his homework. Along the way, he collected information about Southern Xinjiang's officialdom, including the four major families and eight major tribes, as well as the celebrities around the Southern Xinjiang king.
The minister of Honglu Temple raised his hand and said, "It turns out to be Eunuch Jin."
Xie Jinnian held up his hands and bowed: "Don't be polite, Mr. Wang. What happened today is our fault. I will report it to Your Majesty. I believe that Your Majesty will send out elites to rescue the princess of Dazhou as soon as possible."
The Minister of Honglu Temple said worriedly: "Thank you."
Suddenly, the guard of Dazhou came over again and whispered something to the minister of Honglu Temple.
The minister of Honglu Temple gave Xie Jinnian a strange look: "My men heard that the man accused the saint of being the mastermind behind the scenes. Is this possible?"
Xie Jinnian said calmly: "That person did say that. Is it a false accusation or is it true? After verification, I will give an explanation to Da Zhou."
…
Two-quarters of an hour later, in a side hall of the Nanjiang Palace, the Saint gave an audience to the King of Nanjiang.
Wang Ping of Southern Xinjiang withdrew his palace servants and guards, leaving only Xie Jinnian present.
Regarding the incident, Xie Jinnian reported to the King of Southern Xinjiang verbatim, including Wei Xu's accusations against the saint.
If it were someone else, he might not have the confidence to accuse the saint. Even if he did, he would have to weigh his tone or polish it a little - maybe he heard it wrong.
Xie Jinnian doesn’t.
What he says is what he sees.
Even the matter of Wei Xu sneaking away under the nose of the saint was also explained.
The King of Southern Xinjiang sat on a chair shrouded in twilight and asked the saint in a deep voice: "What do you have to say?"
The saint has a headache.
Why are there so many things that worry you lately?
There was a scandal in the family, and when he entered the palace, he was blamed again——
The saint frowned and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't know that person was Wei Xu."
The King of Nanjiang said sternly: "He walked past your carriage. Do you dare to say you didn't see him?"
The saint said: "My injury has not healed, and I have not slept all night. I closed my eyes and meditated on the carriage, and I didn't pay attention."
This is the truth.
If she had known that the man was Wei Xu, she would have controlled him long ago. How could she have let him escape?
The King of Southern Xinjiang's sharp gaze fell on the saint's face, as if he was judging the truth or falsehood of her words.
Xie Jinnian said nothing.
When it's time to speak, he won't hesitate.
When he shouldn't talk, he would never say anything.
The King of Nanjiang said calmly: "Didn't you say that Wei Xu was speechless?"
After taking drugs, the puppets in the Holy Maiden Temple will gradually lose their normal human emotions and ability to speak, until they finally turn into a walking corpse.
This process can take as short as half a year, or as long as two years.
But Wei Xu has been taking medicine for five years, and he can still speak——
The King of Nanjiang asked questioningly: "Do you really have no reservations about Wei Xu?"
The Holy Girl responded calmly: "I assure you, I treat Wei Xu the same as I treat other puppets, but you also know Wei Xu's situation. His power is beyond the reach of others."
The King of Southern Xinjiang said solemnly: "So, you can't even control your own puppet?"
The saint said: "No. My flute sound is effective on Wei Xu. If the jade-faced Rakshasa hadn't come out to disrupt the situation last time, I would have recalled Wei Xu long ago. Wei Xu has no medicine and is suffering from backlash and torture every day. He
You won’t be able to hold on for too long, and sooner or later you will come to me.”
The King of Southern Xinjiang said calmly: "I don't want to hear such words for the third time."
The saint said seriously: "There won't be a third time. Next time I will personally bring Wei Xu to His Majesty."
The King of Southern Xinjiang reminded: "Wei Xu is very dangerous. If he is not aphasic, he probably has not lost all his memory. If he remembers who he is and joins the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if you try to touch him, he will be out of nowhere."
.”
The saint paused: "I understand, and I will recall him as soon as possible so that he will never appear in front of the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
The King of Southern Xinjiang waved his hand.
The saint resigned.
Only King Nanjiang and Xie Jinnian were left in the main hall.
The King of Nanjiang asked: "Jinnian, what do you think?"
Xie Jinnian truthfully stated what he was thinking: "The Saint should not instigate Wei Xu to kidnap the Princess of Zhou, but what happened today has indeed proved that Wei Xu is different from other puppets. Jinnian boldly guessed that the Saint was in Wei Xu's hands."
Regarding this matter, I have reservations about His Majesty."
The face of the King of Southern Xinjiang was shrouded in darkness, making it difficult for people to see his expression clearly.
He just gently rubbed the armrest of the seat and said nothing.
…
But Wei Xu came and left, and no one knew what he was doing.
Since the scope of activities has been expanded, the three ghost brothers want to watch him, but who can watch him?
The night fell.
Su Xuan returned to the room and looked at the Rakshasa sword on the table.
He reached out, hesitating whether to take it or not.
