This was the unified statement that Zu An had made after discussing it with the girls before. This could avoid a lot of trouble.
After all, that assassination not only involved the King of Qi, but also Taoism, Buddhism and even the wine ceremony. If everything is exposed, it will be difficult to end in the follow-up.
King Yan and others were obviously not satisfied with this answer: "Did you not see anything on the Golden Summit?"
"By the way, I saw something else." Zu An suddenly said.
"What did you see?" King Yan, Bi Qi, and Zhao Yuan all sat upright.
"I seem to have seen Li Hentian's Guan Chouhai, Bai Yujing's Li Changsheng, and Kunlunxu's Xuan Bajing also came after hearing the news, and then they were all sucked into the mysterious black hole." Zu An replied, Li Changsheng and Xuan
Bajing was supposed to rest in a separate courtyard near Zishan, but they died in the secret realm and could never come out again, so naturally they couldn't hide it.
As for Guan Chouhai's words, a message was secretly sent to him on the Golden Summit just now, reminding him of some rhetoric. After all, the other party was the leader of a sect and a grand master. The imperial court had no real evidence and did not dare to embarrass him.
"They are all here as expected." Zhao Yuan sneered, as if he was not surprised by this. After all, such a big thing happened and they checked a lot of things during this time.
"The other party may have just arrived like us, or it may have other purposes. I didn't see it, so I can't say." Zu An answered ambiguously. If he was sure that those people had nothing to do with the murder, it would be easy to get burned.
"Have Master Zu seen Master Jianhuang from Wuyou Temple at that time?" Zhao Yuan asked again.
In fact, it is very simple to find out who may have the problem. Just check the people who attended the Taoist conference when the incident happened on Jinding.
Everyone's alibi will naturally produce results.
Zu An shook his head: "Everything happened so fast at that time, I didn't see Master Jian Huang."
I thought that the person these people couldn't even think of taking action against was actually the little monk who was quitting sex.
Zhao Yuan and King Yan obviously didn't believe it. They looked at Yan Xuehen for verification. Yan Xuehen nodded slightly: "I was just like him. I just saw these and was sucked away."
Zhao Yuan and King Yan: "..."
They obviously knew that there was something wrong with these people's answers. As long as they interrogated these women separately, they could find out something.
But Zu An's current status is not trivial, and with the support of the Yulin Guards, and Bi Qi on the other side, there is no way to torture these people.
At this time, Bi Qi helped change the topic: "Azu, tell me what happened after entering the secret realm?"
Zu An replied smoothly: "After we entered the secret realm, we found that it was a strange world, and it was also integrated with the previous Taoist world..."
So I described what happened in detail, but omitted topics such as the conflict with Zhao Hao.
The rest of the people were dazzled and murmured to themselves:
"There is such a huge world."
"There are actually several people who are not inferior to the Emperor in cultivation. That Ghost King is even more powerful than the Emperor."
"That big tomb is even more mysterious. I don't know what kind of being built it."
…
Several people sighed with emotion for a while, and Bi Qi said with a complex expression: "Azu, please tell us in detail how the emperor died. Even if we don't ask, other people in the court will ask after you return."
Zu An knew his good intentions and slowly explained: "Back then, the emperor and the adventurous man
Zang Ao, the president of the association, and Sun En, the leader of the Shenxiao Sect, competed for the "Baopu Scripture" in the tomb... In the end, the tomb collapsed and was closed. The emperor wanted to come out, but he was pestered by several other people, who restrained each other.
In the end, no one ran out."
"Seeing that he couldn't escape, the emperor could only ask me to assist the prince in succeeding to the throne."
Hearing that Zhao Hao went to the tomb to snatch the immortal fate, several other people in the scene immediately believed it. Everyone knew how perverted the emperor's desire to become an immortal was. People died for wealth and birds died for food.
I thought that even the emperor could not escape such a fate.
As for other details, they are so detailed that if you have never seen them, it would be impossible to make them up.
"So the emperor may not be dead yet?" King Yan looked strange. After all, Zu An said that the emperor was just locked up in the tomb.
Zu An glanced at him: "No one should be able to survive in that situation."
Hearing what he said so surely, several people's hearts skipped a beat, and they all knelt down and shouted for Your Majesty, as if their father was dead.
Zu Jing watched the performance of several people quietly. As expected, after showing the sadness of loyal ministers, several people began to care about more practical issues.
"The emperor assigned you to assist the prince at that time? Where are the others?" Several people's eyes flashed.
Zu An replied: "The emperor didn't say anything about the time crisis at that time, but judging from his expression, he should have made arrangements in advance."
He is not so arrogant that he thinks that he alone can occupy the position of assistant to the prince. For more details, he can go to the capital and discuss the deals with the major families.
The three of them nodded, as if that was indeed the case.
Then he asked some questions about what happened in the secret realm.
Qing, Zu An, Yan Xuehen and even Chu Chuyan also gave some answers, but they were able to interlock and corroborate each other.
Seeing that they couldn't get anything out of the question, they all said goodbye and left, obviously wanting to pass on the latest news they had received to those in their own power.
Only Bi Qi quickly turned back and asked to meet Zu An alone.
Just now he showed a desire to help, so Zu An didn't want to refute his favor, so he asked Yan Xuehen and the girls to rest in a nearby courtyard and not be too far away from him, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with the current situation if they were caught by the soldiers.
"Azu, what do you think of Linglong?" Bi Qi's first words frightened Zu An.
His first reaction was that Bi Linglong told her father about their relationship?
Why does it sound the same as when King Qi recruited a son-in-law?
"The Crown Princess is very nice, she is beautiful...ahem, she is also courteous to the corporal, and she is very kind to me." Zu An immediately realized in the middle of the sentence. With Bi Linglong's temperament, how could he treat such a huge person?
Misfortune spreads randomly, even if it's her father.
Bi Qi was very satisfied with his answer and patted him on the shoulder: "Yes, you are from the East Palace, and Linglong has always trusted you. Speaking of which, we are also our own people, so we can talk straight to the point."
Zu An's heart shivered: "Master Bi, please speak."
"Do you know why there were so many ministers before, but now I am the only one here?" Bi Qi's face was gloomy, obviously very unhappy.
"Why?" Zu An had actually noticed a long time ago that all the civil and military officials followed Zhao Hao to come to the Zen ceremony, but now many familiar faces have disappeared, with only Bi Qi, King Yan and Zhao Yuan in the lead.
Zhao Yuan is a military commander, and King Yan is a vassal who guards nearby.
King, strictly speaking, was not included in the previous center of the imperial court.
Now there is only Bi Qi, and all the other officials seem to have left.
"Humph, something happened to the emperor before. The Liu brothers used this as an excuse to start purging the court officials and eliminating dissidents."
"Because I followed the emperor here in Zishan, I was accused of being unfavorable in protecting him, so I stayed here to pay for my crime." Bi Qi felt a little resentful.
Zu An remembered that signs of rebels gathering in nearby counties had been discovered, so the imperial court wanted to send troops to suppress them.
Brother Liu Guang and Liu Yao, the head of the country, wanted to follow him to gain military exploits, so they were not at Zishan, so they escaped the storm.
The emperor was assassinated and his whereabouts were missing. This was such a big deal that a lot of people would lose their heads and official positions.
Although people like Bi Qi have a high status, they are also implicated. Liu Guang and Liu Yao have the endorsement of the queen, so they naturally have natural legal principles. If they continue to hold on to these, Bi Qi is left here.
"Hmph, Meng Yi is probably cooperating with the Liu family and has already followed him back to Beijing." Bi Qi became more and more depressed as she talked. She couldn't help but drain the water in the teacup in one gulp, rolled up her sleeves and poured another cup.
He was in charge of the Shangshu Province, and Meng Yi was the top leader of the Zhongshu Province. They were usually on an equal footing, but now he was able to return to the center of power, but he was excluded, so his heart was naturally unbalanced.
Zu An couldn't help but ask: "Why haven't you seen the two Qin brothers?"
Chu Chuyan was actually a little anxious about this before, so she asked her in advance.
Bi Qi also knew the origin between him and the Qin family, and replied: "The Qin family and the King of Qi are too involved. After the incident, the two brothers were immediately arrested.
It's under control, and the two old princes of the Qin family have also been surrendered by the imperial court. They are now on trial, and the Qin family is doomed."
He paused and then added: "Azu, you have a great future now. In the future, I will decide to find you a noble girl from a famous family in the capital. Why do you have to hang yourself on Miss Chu?"
Zu Anxin thought it would be better if you told me your daughter as a matchmaker, but he also knew that this was absolutely impossible.
At the same time, he was filled with worries for the Qin family: "The two princes of the Qin family have always been in charge of military power. Didn't they encounter any resistance when they were imprisoned?"
"That old guy Qin Zheng is self-righteous and thinks that he is serving the country and the people and has no selfish motives, so he is not afraid of being investigated. Such a person is easy to deal with," Bi Qi said with a trace of sarcasm on her lips, as if she was mocking the other party's political naivety and
Naive, "But their prestige has always been very high, and the court didn't know how to deal with them for a while. I guess they will kill them quietly after the limelight passes."
