After saying that, the man in black clothes left. After walking a few steps along the street, he looked around and saw that there was no one there. So he hurriedly took off the black clothes, rolled them up into a ball, and rolled them up casually.

Don't know where it was thrown.

...

"General Chi, it's time to eat."

Chi Zhongtian, who was lying on the bed, suddenly heard sounds outside.

"Just come!" Chi Zhongtian agreed casually, quickly straightened his clothes, and then walked out.

When he arrived at the main hall of the government office, the king was already waiting there. Chi Zhongtian hurriedly walked over and bowed, and then said: "Your Majesty, you can just eat first, why wait for me."

"Hey, it's not fun to eat alone. Come, I'll have a few drinks with you. I see you've been so worried these days, you've become out of character." The king said with a smile, and then he put a jar of wine on the table.

Come here and get ready to serve Chi Zhong Tian Man.

The god in the pool dared to ask the king to pour him wine, so he quickly grabbed it, filled the glass for the king first, and then added some for himself.

"Zhongtian, since things have already happened, it is useless to worry. Don't forget the purpose of our trip. That is the most important thing." The king picked up the wine glass and said meaningfully.

"Your Majesty, don't worry about this, I know it well." Chi Zhongtian replied.

"Okay, when do you plan to let me take the first step?" the king asked.

"How about tomorrow morning?"

"It's up to you!"

"Here, I give you this glass of wine!" After the king finished speaking, he raised his head and drank all the wine in the glass.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chi Zhongtian said politely and then drank it all.

Ever since he came out to travel around the world, Chi Zhongtian's drinking capacity has been getting bigger and bigger day by day.

"Don't forget what you said. If you delay for up to three days, I will be waiting for you in Luzhou!" the king said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I will not miss anything. I have already written the letter. After you arrive in Luzhou, just find someone to deliver the letter to the place I told you." With that, Chi Zhongtian left from

He took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to the king.

The king put it directly into his arms without even looking at it. He still warned uneasily: "Zhongtian, there are no outsiders here. I have a few words that I would like to give you."

"Your Majesty, please speak. I am all ears."

"Well, one of them is Guo Ming. Although he is a little awkward about borrowing a boat, he is not the culprit after all. You can just scare him, but you can't be impulsive. Don't forget

, he is a naval general appointed by the imperial court and cannot be easily moved."

After Chi Zhongtian heard this, he immediately nodded and said: "I understand this. I was just angry for a moment. Besides, in the end, he also has to bear some responsibility for this matter. If he was willing to borrow the boat at that time, the navy's

I’m afraid no water bandit would dare to make an idea about a warship.”

"That's what I say, but if you can bear it, you should be more tolerant. Even if you really want to punish him, you have to wait until the third prince is replaced and then return to the capital to report to the Holy One and let the Holy One punish him." The king continued.

Chi Zhongtian knew that the king's words were actually for his own good, so he nodded in agreement happily.

"Also, I know that the owner of that ship is related to the prefect of Shunqing Prefecture. If you find out, then you can deal with it, but if there is no real evidence, it is best not to act rashly, especially not to involve Jiang Xianda easily.

Come on, he is a prefect after all, and this relationship is very delicate."

Chi Zhongtian nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I will handle this with caution. The ship owner is indeed suspected, and I must find out. Also, I will send someone to notify Guo Ming to salvage the bodies of those water bandits.

Now that I'm out, I'll see the prince off tomorrow, and then I'll go take a look at the corpses to see if I can find any clues."

"Well, in any case, just be careful." After listening to Chi Zhongtian's arrangement, the king felt relieved, so he stopped talking about any serious matters.

The meal lasted until the end of Haishi. After it was over, the king went back to rest. After Chi Zhongtian sobered up, he came to the residence of the few officers and gave them instructions one by one.

Afterwards, he went to the place where the Hanye Valley disciples lived. He didn't know what they talked about, but it wasn't until late at night that Chi Zhongcai left.

After dawn, Chi Zhongtian first arranged for people to serve the king, dress and wash, and then asked Jiang Xianda to prepare several carriages. After the king had eaten, Chi Zhongtian, Jiang Xianda and Guo Ming escorted the king towards the west gate.

He went there and didn't continue to send him off until he had reached a few miles outside Ximen.

Although Jiang Xianda and Guo Ming were wondering why Chi Zhongtian didn't follow him at this time, they could understand with a little thought. It seemed that they would not be able to pass this test.

After seeing off the king, Chi Zhongtian immediately returned to the government office, and without any delay, asked people to take Fuzi to the house where he lived.

In the past few days, Fuzi had been staying in the backyard of the government office. Although he was not tortured and three meals a day were delivered on time, he looked much thinner than the previous few days. It must have been caused by excessive worry.

As soon as he entered the door and saw Chi Zhongtian, Fuzi immediately knelt on the ground and shouted in a tearful voice: "General Chi, the villain is wronged, the villain is wronged!"

Chi Zhongtian was startled by his move and quickly asked: "What are you doing?"

"General, I know why you don't let me go home. Do you think that I colluded with the water bandits to murder everyone!" Fuzi said with tears in his eyes.

Chi Zhongtian was about to open his mouth to comfort him with a few words, but then he thought about it and changed the topic: "Well, I have this idea."

"Ah!" Although Fuzi said that, it was another thing to hear Chi Zhongtian say it with his own ears.

"I'm going to ask you a few things, and you have to answer truthfully." Chi Zhongtian said while sitting on a chair.

"Yes, yes, General Chi, just ask! If I tell a lie, my whole family will die badly!"

This Fuzi might have been really scared, so he took all his family members with him when he swore an oath.

After hearing his oath, Chi Zhongtian quickly waved his hand to stop him, and then asked: "Let me ask you, why did your boat leak?"

"If you reply to the general..."

"No need to pay attention to these etiquettes, just answer directly!" Chi Zhongtian shouted sharply.

"Yes, it was fine at first, but as I was rowing, several small holes appeared under the boat, and then water poured in. At first, I asked people to block the holes, but they couldn't be blocked!" Fuzi
