There was suppressed shock in his eyes, and his clenched fists were slowly loosening.
Everything he saw in front of him was too shocking, and if these things were used, they would definitely be a big killer for the Turks.
It’s really not surprising that they would have super confidence because of this.
He twirled his fingers, followed Ashina Wolf's movements with his eyes, and thought quickly in his mind.
How to break the situation.
Ashina Wolf was squealing violently, and as he swayed from alcohol to alcohol, he seemed to be getting more and more drunk.
He touched here for a while, smiling foolishly, and knocked there for a while, smiling with a pair of squinting eyes, wretched and silly.
The dull metal sound resounded in the room. As happy as the smile on Ashina Lang's face was, the darkness in Qi Yan's eyes was so dark.
Because what was in front of him was a huge monster!
There is only one thing in this whole room that is the most eye-catching. There is no luxurious color on its surface, but it exudes an aura of terror from top to bottom.
The wooden box stacked next to it contains its attack core.
This is clearly a large-scale attack weapon with extremely lethal power.
Just the fact that it was placed here quietly made him feel the danger coming towards him.
If the Turks were allowed to throw it into the war with the Great Zhou Dynasty, Qi Yan closed his eyes, he did not dare to think about that scene for a while.
The confrontation between manpower and large weapons is like the power of a sharp knife versus the overwhelming power of Mount Tai. It is not on the same scale at all and cannot be compared at all.
Ashina Lang smiled foolishly and said in a low voice: "You are so tough, you should be at your strongest on the biggest battlefield!"
"I'm very optimistic about you!"
"Da Zhou, just wait to be crushed under my feet."
The wanton laughter echoed in the room, just in time to suppress the sound of Qi Yan's fast moving footsteps.
Qi Yan's eyes were always distracted by Ashina Wolf, but his hands opened the wooden box very lightly.
The things in the box were wrapped in special fabrics. When he saw the material at a glance, his face became extremely cold.
This is difficult to do.
Ashina Wolf stood up unsteadily and prepared to go out.
Qi Yan pursed his lips and put down the lid of the box, paying attention to the two keys in his arms.
After following the other party out of the room and into the bedroom where the other party was resting, Qi Yan saw the opportunity and made a steady and ruthless move to take Ashina Wolf's key away.
Like a gust of wind, he quickly went out to join his companions.
With a few gestures, his companion understood what he meant.
They didn't have much time to hide. They had to destroy the offensive power of the large weapon in the room before the Turkic army gathered.
Otherwise, once the fighting starts, it will be hell on earth.
That was a scene they never wanted to see, so no matter what, they had to do it.
They left only one person waiting outside, while the others all went in to study the big weapon.
The night was very quiet, and what echoed in their ears was the loud snoring of the Turks.
Although it was separated by several rooms, the sound seemed to be right next to my ears, and it was extremely penetrating.
Qi Yan secretly thought that it was thanks to the fact that the Turks were extremely confident in their weapons that they dared to sing, dance, and drink and have fun on the eve of the war.
After making eye contact with his companion, he calmed down and began to study this big guy.
…
It cannot be violently destroyed and components cannot be loosened.
They almost hit a dead end.
Qi Yan's eyebrows furrowed deeply. While his companions were studying the big man, he went to study the core in the wooden box.
The same cannot be destroyed, and you may even hurt yourself if you fail.
He lowered his eyes.
It cannot be destroyed, so... what about taking it away?
It's a pity that this idea was rejected by him as soon as it came up.
When I turned around, I saw that except for the gaps in the accessible areas, the rest of the room was filled with wooden boxes stacked one on top of another.
Not to mention that they were not able to finish the move, the sound alone was too much to slow down the people stationed at the door.
"Exit first."
Qi Yan made a gesture and withdrew with his companions.
＊
Before the bowl of tea was filled, Qi Zekai strode over.
"What are you asking me for? Do you have any clues?"
Before anyone even came up the steps of the pavilion, the question had already come out of his mouth.
Chen Qiushui's eyes still rested on the teapot in his hand. He didn't reach out until the teacup was full, then pushed it forward and said slowly: "I know you are anxious, but when this matter has reached this point, I can no longer be anxious."
"So, don't be impatient. Sit down first and have a sip of tea."
Qi Zekai was silent.
Without saying a word, he strode to sit down in front of Chen Qiushui, raised his hand and drank the tea in the bowl in one gulp.
Then, his face suddenly wrinkled into a bitter melon.
"How long have you been soaking this for? It's bitter and astringent..."
Due to his deportment, his grimace didn't last long before he forcibly changed his expression.
Chen Qiushui glanced at him: "Oh, I've been soaking for a long time."
"My original intention is to give you a hard time. The tea that has been brewed for a long time is just right."
"Look, your expression now looks a bit lively."
Qi Zekai lowered his eyes.
"As long as I can find her, all my energy and spirit will come back."
As soon as these words came out, both of them were silent.
Chen Qiushui said slowly: "We have searched everywhere we can, which means that she is not in the place where we might think of her."
"Perhaps we have overlooked someone."
"who?"
Qi Zekai suddenly raised his head.
"Think about it, you have already captured Wei Jinwei. Who is he? A guard who specializes in carrying out the orders of the Holy Emperor."
"Then the conveyance of the Holy Lord's orders also requires a person."
Chen Qiushui's eyes turned cold.
"That person must have seen the list of officials to be punished for corruption, and he must have seen that list earlier than any of us. Doesn't he know that the Tang family is on the list?"
Qi Zekai's eyes were bloodshot and he spoke word by word.
"Wu, Liu, Guang."
Chen Qiushui raised his eyes: "If I remember correctly, his family and your old lady are still related."
Qi Zekai's tone was difficult.
"He also went to the Xiao family's poetry club."
"Then he must know that you and Miss Ling are both for the Tang family, and are also helping the two sisters of the Tang family."
Chen Qiushui squeezed the tea cup tightly.
"Then, since we are so close, why didn't I inform you as soon as I saw the list?"
"Obviously, your official positions are similar, aren't they?"
Qi Zekai's expression changed from pupil shock to indifference and disbelief.
"It's not that the official position is equal now, he has already surpassed me."
As soon as these words came out, Chen Qiushui was also shocked.
"What? How long has he been in the official career? This speed of promotion..."
"If I remember correctly, you are from the Hanlin Academy..."
Qi Zekai stood up.
"This morning's imperial edict, you are not here."
Chen Qiushui didn't regain his energy for a long time.
It is true that he did not go to court this morning because he was on official business as an excuse, but he was actually at Inn No. 33, watching over Gu Songyue and Lai Che.
At this moment, I came to see Qi Zekai, but I had to squeeze out time, and I had to go back soon.
"this……"
Qi Zekai was the number one scholar, and his starting point was higher than that of Wu Liuguang, but Wu Liuguang was able to catch up from behind, and was promoted to two consecutive official positions, and now he has steadily surpassed Qi Zekai.
"I'll go find him."
Qi Zekai pursed his lips tightly and his eyes darkened.
Chen Qiushui's lips moved: "If he knew about it and still did it, you should be more careful."
Qi Zekai didn't reply and strode away.
＊
Wu Liuguang opened the door, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, looking kind and close.
"Why do you have time to come to my place today?"
"Come in quickly, it's getting cold. Let's have a sip of hot tea."
The gentle tone was as before, and Qi Zekai's face was expressionless. At this moment, he was already standing at the door of Wu Liuguang's house, but the sense of absurdity in his heart still lingered.
He chose to get straight to the point.
"I really need to go in and tell you, but I won't drink tea."
"I have something to ask you."
The smile on Wu Liuguang's lips became shallower, his brows furrowed, and his eyes naturally showed a little concern.
"What's wrong? I see you don't look well. If you want to ask anything, just ask."
The door is closed.
Qi Zekai had no intention of entering the room and asked directly: "You were responsible for the whole process of the case of corrupt officials, right? Then, the list must have been delivered to you as soon as possible. You saw the Tang family's
Do you know their names? Do you know they are innocent?"
A series of questions were thrown directly at Wu Liuguang's head.
Wu Liuguang blinked.
"I am responsible for the entire process."
"The Tang family..."
There was a pause in his words, and then he nodded.
"I noticed this family, but they are not innocent."
"Not innocent!?"
Qi Zekai was immediately ignited by these words.
"Have you checked it out? You can't say you're not innocent. I've gone over their family's affairs in the past few days. That Tang family man, he just attended a banquet, and at most he was affected! He is stupid. In fact, he is not innocent.
There is no evidence of corruption.”
Qi Zekai was emotional.
Wu Liuguang listened to him calmly throughout the whole process.
Then, he said slowly: "You also said that he attended the banquet."
Qi Zekai hesitated.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Wu Liuguang seriously, and then he discovered...
When did the other person's eyes look like this and become so unfamiliar.
"What do you mean?"
"Literally."
Wu Liuguang's eyes revealed something deep and sophisticated.
"Have you not already entered the officialdom? Don't you know that there are some things where participation is a mistake?"
"Do you know why in the officialdom, everyone is cautious and forms cliques? Isn't it because they don't want others to grab their pigtails?"
Wu Liuguang smiled slightly, his eyes full of indifference.
"What happened with the Tang family is just an example."
"Not everything is black and white. Look, there are loyal and courageous people whose bones would rather break than bend. For example, Minister Yan. Now, have you ever seen him come to court?"
Wu Liuguang patted Qi Zekai on the shoulder.
"I just got promoted today. I'm happy. Besides, my family is related to yours, so I'll tell you a little more. It's up to you how much you can understand."
He lowered his eyes: "As for the Tang family, there is no need to ask me any more questions."
"I was the one who conveyed the imperial edict, but I was told that a notice had been posted in the middle of the street. The entire Tang family has been wiped out due to Master Tang's corruption. This is a fact, and there will be no change."
Qi Zekai trembled and was so angry.
"you!"
His eyes were blood red, and he raised his hand and grabbed Chen Qiushui's collar.
"She will not die until the Tang family is completely destroyed!"
"Take back what you just said!"
"Just because you follow the crowd, it doesn't mean that everyone is the same as you. If the officialdom is all about cliques and cliques, then the imperial power..."
Wu Liuguang's eyes trembled and he quickly covered Qi Zekai's mouth.
He laughed angrily.
The voice was low, filled with anger and disbelief.
"Are you crazy? You dare to say anything!"
"It's for the sake of the old lady that I'm willing to offer you a few words of support. If you're bent on hitting a dead end, don't hold me back!"
"Do you know if what you just said was heard by someone with a heart, what kind of crime would you be guilty of?"
Qi Zekai's mouth was covered and his anger calmed down.
His impulse was to calm down, but he felt in his heart that there was nothing wrong with what he said.
Seeing that he was no longer so crazy, Wu Liuguang also let go of his hand and rolled his eyes at him.
"So you came to me not to congratulate me on my promotion, but to challenge me for the Tang family's affairs?"
"You are really outrageous. Please come back. I don't have any extra information to tell you."
"I want her whereabouts, you know that, right?"
Qi Zekai was unprecedentedly calm.
Wu Liuguang had turned around, turned his head when he heard this, and smiled.
"Did you not understand what I just said? The result is the result, not the process, and it is irreversible."
"What if I have to reverse course?"
The tit-for-tat momentum has arisen between the two.
The smile on Wu Liuguang's lips completely disappeared and he turned to look at Qi Zekai.
"You want to go against the rules?"
Qi Zekai narrowed his eyes and said this. Wu Liuguang definitely knew the whereabouts of Tang Fuling!
"you tell me!"
Wu Liuguang hissed in pain, but he didn't expect that Qi Zekai, who usually looked weak, was very energetic.
"Hey, who are you, what are you doing! Let go of our Liu Guang!"
A female voice suddenly sounded sharp and mean.
Mrs. Zhao ran up quickly with her skirt in hand. She didn't even look at anyone when she came up and was about to tear Qi Zekai apart.
Qi Zekai did not want to cause trouble with his elders and immediately retreated.
Only then did Mrs. Zhao see who it was.
Her eyes widened: "Young Master Qi San!? How could it be you? What were you doing just now? You wanted to strangle our family member to death!"
Her expression became fierce.
"I'm telling you, you..."
The sharp female voice made a loud noise, and their conversation was interrupted forcefully. Wu Liuguang watched with cold eyes as his mother drove Qi Zekai out of the house.
He drove people out without any shame.
＊
Ling Yutong raised his head and asked again: "Where's Dr. Ruan? It's been a long time today, he..."
Doctor Fang was also stunned.
Eh? It seems like that.
Most of today has passed, and he met Ruan Fu in a hurry early in the morning. This is... not quite right.
"Wait a minute, I'll find someone."
After a while, Doctor Fang came back with a puzzled look on his face.
"It shouldn't be? I can't find him anywhere. He can't leave the camp, can he?"
Ling Yutong's face suddenly darkened.
She suddenly remembered something and asked quickly: "Where is Xiu Niang? Can you see Xiu Niang?"
Doctor Fang blinked: "You mean that bird of his? Didn't he carry it with him? How could he let it go?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard chirping outside the tent, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and a bird rushed in.
Doctor Fang looked back with surprise.
Ling Yutong's eyes were completely dark.
"Oops, something happened."
She didn't even bother to put on her shoes and ran quickly towards Xiu Niang. Xiu Niang seemed to understand what she meant and stopped in front of her.
The bird chirped, and although it couldn't speak, it made them all feel its anxiety.
Doctor Fang murmured: "This bird owned by Ruan Fu is very precious and never leaves my body."
Then, when he lowered his head, he saw Ling Yutong rushing out with Xiu Niang.
Doctor Fang was shocked: "Hey, shoes! You don't have any shoes on!"
Qi Yan left a deep impression on him that time.
At that moment, he hurriedly knelt down and grabbed Ling Yutong's shoes, then hurriedly chased after her and rushed out.
