This was confirmed by the token he pulled out from Pi Xiu's body. The Ling Shu who was killed in Qingzhou was Ren Yin, which means that before the two of them, there was another son of Ren.
Judging from the distribution of this organization in various states and the transmission of orders, the Son of Man is the biggest leader during these twelve hours!
The earliest person Chou Pixiu was in Lingzhou, and the person Yin Lingshu was in Qingzhou. It can be inferred that the other people, Mao Renwu, etc. should be distributed in other states respectively. Then the Son of Man, as the person who coordinates and directs other times, will naturally be in the capital.<
/p>
If it weren't for Cheng Yuanjian's reaction to the probing just now, Chen Ping would not be so suspicious of the Cheng family. After all, although this organization has many caravans and has extensive operations, it is absolutely impossible not to say that there are a lot of such people in the capital.
Quite a few.
But when Chen Ping told Pi Xiu, Cheng Yuanjian showed his flaw!
I have to say that this young man concealed it very well. The flaw only appeared for a moment and then disappeared. However, Chen Ping had read the complete works of Conan, and he was already suspicious of Cheng Yuanjian before he tested it. As soon as the flaw came out, he was worried.
There is a conclusion.
After discovering this clue, and then thinking about the various things that happened before and the Cheng family, they can all be correct.
At this point, Chen Ping became more and more certain that even if Cheng Yuanjian was not the Son of Man, he must have a close relationship with this organization!
Although his heart was in turmoil, Chen Ping did not show any abnormality in front of him. While he and Cheng Yuanjian were giving in, they guessed the purpose of the banquet.
While waiting for the chef to serve the food, the atmosphere was a bit subtle.
Chen Ping roughly confirmed Cheng Yuanjian's identity, while Cheng Yuanjian was aware of it and became more cautious in his words. Xie Zhiyuan watched with interest the two people who seemed to be wrestling in secret. As for Cheng Cheng, the delicacies of the Cheng family's famous chef
It is obviously more attractive than the conversation between Chen Ping and Cheng Yuanjian.
"There is a rumor in the capital that Mr. Chen helped the local government crack down on a major smuggling case in Lingzhou. Outsiders say it is so miraculous that I am fascinated by it. Why don't you tell me the secret?"
Cheng Yuanjian gently flapped his folding fan and asked Chen Ping with a twinkle in his eye.
When he was greeting guests at the door, he accidentally exposed his flaw. If Chen Ping asked this unintentionally, it would be too coincidental. But if Chen Ping knew his true identity, how could he come to the banquet?
Then there is only one possibility: Chen Ping is deceiving him!
Thinking of this, Li Yuanjian didn't worry too much, but he admired Chen Ping's agility a little more.
After all, the task he received was to test whether Chen Ping was willing to submit to the organization. The possibility of his identity being exposed during the process was within his expectation. If he didn't, he would be killed.
Chen Ping continued to fiddle with the tea leaves in his hands, with a slight smile on his face. He wanted to hear how I defeated the Lingzhou Bureau and captured Pi Xiu? Okay!
"If Mr. Cheng wants to hear any secrets, then I will be a man. In fact, it doesn't matter. I just try my best to investigate the case, break the culprits' arrangements one by one, and then capture and kill them."
"Come to think of it, the clues I found in Lingzhou seem that the smuggled grain was shipped from the north. Mr. Cheng's family has a big business in the north and must have many connections. A smuggling case of a scale of one hundred thousand shi of grain would be unreasonable. Does Master Cheng know anything? Tell me?"
Cheng Yuanjian was listening attentively until Chen Ping turned his head and asked him about it.
"Mr. Chen is joking. My small business is just for the generals to make a living. Who knows about the thief? The thief who smuggled 100,000 stones of grain is probably not a big thief. The young master has ruined their good deeds. I need some money." Be careful about revenge."
Cheng Yuanjian played with the folding fan in his hand and replied calmly.
After saying this, Cheng Yuanjian glanced at Chen Ping, feeling a little wary. Chen Ping actually wanted to continue tracing the organization. Wasn't Pi Xiu already killed by him? How could he be like a dog-skin plaster?
"Oh, really? There are not many people in the capital who can do business as well as your Cheng Mansion. I'm afraid it's not right, Brother Cheng, to say that you don't know?"
"As for revenge, haha, am I still afraid of these thieves under the feet of the Emperor of the Capital?"
Chen Ping smiled casually, with no fear on his face. Cheng Yuanjian frowned slightly. Isn't this kid a little too confident?
Could it be that he thought that Jiulongtang and Tianxiang Pavilion could compete with the organization?
Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of the question, Cheng Yuanjian stopped continuing the topic and instead took Xie Zhi Yuanjian aside to talk sincerely about matters in the palace.
"Your Majesty looks fine. I think it won't take long for him to return to normal."
"What Brother Xie said is true. Your Majesty's safety is of great importance. There have been many thieves in recent years. If Your Majesty is not good, these thieves may take the opportunity to cause trouble."
"Yeah, you're right. When will the delicacies be served?"
Cheng Yuanjian laughed, turned around and asked the housekeeper to go down and urge him.
The verbal exchange didn't last long. The four people discussed topics ranging from astronomy to geography. Those who didn't know better thought it was a gathering of a few friends.
During the conversation, Chen Ping noticed that Cheng Yuanjian's conversation was elegant and interesting, and his knowledge reserve was extremely amazing. Although he could not compare with him and Xie Zhiyuan in terms of poetry and poetry, he was by no means as simple as an ordinary businessman.
Thinking of Cheng Yuanjian's experience of being adopted by Wei Guogong, Chen Ping couldn't help but be more careful about this person.
The same is true for Cheng Yuanjian. He had heard of Chen Ping before, and his previous contact was only a superficial taste. Today's conversation was a glimpse of Lushan. He couldn't help but admire him, but at the same time he lost much confidence in the tasks assigned to him by the organization.< /p>
A man like this, who was willing to avenge his mentor and devoted himself to studying for ten years, has now achieved great success and won the top prize, how can he submit to being a pawn?
If Chen Ping were allowed to enter the officialdom and sit on the bench for a few years, and suffer severe beatings for a few years, he might still have a chance, now?
It's just that Chen Ping is talented and capable, and it's very difficult to kill or pull. In the end, the Cheng family may be thrown out as a target and ruthlessly abandoned. Cheng Yuanjian has to think about himself.
"Here, here we go, hibiscus white jade pot."
"Xiazhou white crisp, Donghai shark fin..."
As the dishes followed, the names of each dish came from Cheng Yuanjian's mouth, and his love for these delicacies can be seen from his face.
"Zhuangyuanlang, please."
Chen Ping thanked him with his hands, picked up a piece of fish meat with his chopsticks, and put it into his mouth. It was late spring and early summer, so it was the right time to enjoy this fish meat.
The snow-white fish dumplings melted like milk as soon as they entered the mouth, and the sweet and fresh taste spread instantly, filling the entire mouth. Chen Ping didn't even need to chew, just took two sips and his taste buds were opened by the fish dumplings.
"The color, aroma and taste are all there. Brother Cheng is such a gourmet, hahaha!"
There are a few important things in life that you cannot live up to, and food is one of them. This is the first time since Chen Ping traveled through time that he has eaten something so exquisite, and he can’t help but admire it.
"It's just that the name is a bit tacky."
