He was defeated by He Lingchuan in the Lotus Palace, and he felt very uncomfortable these days.
It would be even more pointless to challenge He Lingchuan with the pretext of making a comeback.
What's more, that kid Zhong Sunmou was probably killed, so there was no good reason for him to embarrass He Lingchuan.
What Bai Ziqi just said made his heart sparkle again.
"I just want to understand the situation, but you have missed the point." Bai Ziqi looked at him and smiled, raising a finger, "First, God is concerned about whether this case has anything to do with the elixir? That is,
It means whether He Xiao and Prince Yue are searching in the right direction, whether Zhongsun Mou conspired with Cen Boqing to deceive the emperor." "Yes!" Fan Sheng lowered his head and felt the pressure again, "Before, the general was reckless."
If he had known that what Zhongsun was trying to do was something as stupid as elixir, he would never have interfered.
The elixir is one of the reverse scales of the gods. Now that it is better, I have also been sucked into the whirlpool.
Fortunately, the special envoy sent by above is Baidu Envoy, so if you cooperate well, you will be less punished.
"Secondly, the reason why I came to investigate the case is because the murder of the patrol envoy alarmed the emperor. And Mai Xuewen was the undoubted murderer. Thousands of pairs of eyes saw it under the Chaohu Tower that day. His public murder was an attack on
A direct provocation from Lingxu City." Bai Ziqi put down the tea cup, "So, another key point is to capture Mai Xuewen. As for Fu Shanyue, his goal is the same as ours, and it is also these two points."
When he said something, Fan Sheng nodded, but in the end he was stunned. He thought for a few breaths before saying, "So, we don't check them?"
"What are you looking for?" Bai Ziqi shook his head, "The speculations you and I have are just suspicions. They can easily prevaricate. If we can't catch Mai Xuewen, we won't have any evidence to accuse him."
Fan Sheng has been involved in the officialdom for some time, and after thinking about it and understanding it, Bai Duzhi planned to temporarily ignore the "minor" anomalies such as Prince Chiyan, and instead focus on the two major points.
In other words, they will continue to cooperate with Fu Shanyue to investigate the case.
Seeing that Bai Ziqi's brows were still furrowed, he cupped his fists and said, "General Bai, how can I serve you?"
"It's hard for Cen Boqing to stand up. The next step to investigate is whether Da Sinong was involved. Alas, I really caught up with the good times. The difficulties are all behind this." Bai Ziqi mused, "Actually, I originally went south to another place.
There is an important matter. Now it seems that the case of the courier that was received later happened before. The time difference is only a few days, and they are both in Chiyan. Is there some connection? "
Fan Sheng was confused after hearing this. Did Bai Duzhi originally have to handle two cases?
Just as Bai Ziqi was about to speak again, Fan Sheng's bodyguard suddenly rushed in from outside to report:
The special envoy of the Prince of Chiyan successfully captured the fugitive and swaggered into the city!
Caught? Bai Ziqi stood up, "Okay, Commander Fan will come with me."
He also warned Fan Sheng: "If Cen Boqing is arrested, you must capture Cheng Yu as soon as possible. This person is very important! He himself is a witness, and his spell is very special. He can transform into Qingming. There may be others later."
The use of."
"yes."
-
Soon, another piece of information quietly flowed into the Cen Mansion:
In fact, the prince brought back a mother and son from the north, and strictly guarded the mother, who was in her twenties, and the son, who was only seven or eight years old.
Cen Boqing was having tea at the time. When he heard the news, the teacup dropped on the table with a bang.
Was actually found by Fu Shanyue?
Between relatives and masters, how would Wu Kai choose? No wonder Yang Song was arrested.
Cen Boqing walked back and forth in the garden more than a dozen times, and finally made up his mind to find Cheng Yu.
Now that you have made a decision, you must seize the time.
If you hesitate, you will lose.
Seeing that Cheng Yu's soul was still sleeping in the bottle, Cen Bo couldn't breathe. If this guy hadn't been able to sleep so well, would he be in this predicament?
He ordered the guards to directly remove the cork from the bottle.
The lantern of the snow bottle went out immediately, as if a thin wisp of smoke flew out of the bottle mouth.
After just a few breaths, the curse master opened his eyes.
When he first woke up, he was still a little dazed, but after focusing his eyes, he patted the bed
He stood up and pointed at Cen Boqing angrily: "You pulled out my plug?"
Special vomit.
Before he finished speaking, he was lying on the bedside and vomiting.
It is most difficult to heal an injured soul. Even for him, twenty or thirty days is not enough to heal it. How many days have passed this time?
The most important thing is that this snow bottle can only be used once.
He looked at the bottle and found that the bottle was quietly covered with cracks, and it looked like it would break if touched.
It's really useless.
"We are surrounded by wolves, we can't wait any longer." Cen Bo wanted to pull out his plug early in the morning, but what Cheng Yu said before going into seclusion was too shocking. Pulling out the plug early would definitely be bad luck. Considering that this guy is a powerful spell master,
Cen Boqing endured it for several days, but the best opportunity was missed.
Now look at it, what are the consequences?
He was really deceived by this guy!
Cen Boqing felt depressed for a while: "In the past few days since you have been sleeping, the situation in Baisha has changed dramatically, and the mansion has been searched by the prince."
Previously, Cheng Yu's body and soul were divided into two parts. They rested in separate places and slept for seven or eight days before waking up. His face looked much better.
But his face almost wrinkled into a bitter melon: "I have been hurt by you! In the dreamland in the bottle, I was in a state of scattered souls. When you pulled out the stopper, one of my souls took the opportunity to fly away. I don't know how long it will take to find it.
return."
"What will happen if you lose your soul?"
"I will become dull-minded, slow-moving, and weak and sickly." Cheng Yu was annoyed, "We who are spell masters are not in good health to begin with. If you do this, I'm afraid my life will be shortened in the future."
There is a price to pay for living with evil spirits all day long.
Cen Boqing said coldly: "If you don't take action, I'm afraid you and I will be dead soon. Where is the 'after'?"
Cheng Yu rolled his eyelids: "Who do you want to deal with?"
He now took a closer look at Mr. Cen. His eyes were bloodshot, his eye sockets were sunken, and he had lost weight. It was obvious that he had been having a hard time these past few days.
Cen Boqing hesitated for a moment before saying, "Wu Kai."
"Wu..." Cheng Yu thought he heard wrongly, "Your old servant?" "Yes."
It seems that a lot of things happened while he was sleeping. Cheng Yu coughed twice and his face turned a little pale: "Okay, I already disliked him. Where is he?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "In the hands of Prince Fu Shanyue."
Cheng Yu was startled again: "Taken?" He also guessed that Cen Boqing wanted to silence him, "How do you want him to die?"
"As long as the cause of death has nothing to do with me."
Cheng Yu thought for too long, and Cen Boqing frowned: "Don't you claim that even the king can plot against you?" In this situation, he no longer respected Cheng Yu as before.
Especially when this guy failed to plot against He Xiao and suffered backlash, Cen Boqing was deeply doubtful of his ability.
"My injury has not healed, and my technique is not as powerful as before." Cheng Yu was dizzy at the moment, but he still remembered the failed surprise attack that night.
He still can't understand how the Hundred-faced Nightmare could lose to a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy?
How could a giant whale choke to death on a krill? What's so weird about He Xiao?
He said to Cen Boqing: "Please prepare a few things for me: Wu Kai's birth date, personal belongings, hair or nails, rootless water, cinnabar, a live quail..."
He asked for more than a dozen things at once, including several strange things.
At this point, Cen Boqing only wanted quick results, so he ordered others to do the same.
Cheng Yu asked again: "When will we do it?"
"Of course, the faster, the better." Cen Boqing said, "For the sake of safety, we have to take the first step."
"Ah?" Cheng Yu didn't understand.
"Do you still remember how you entered Cen's house?" Cen Bo said coldly, "Lu Dutong has already searched this house, but he didn't find you. Do you know why?"
"The information has just been sent to the Cen Mansion?" He Lingchuan was dissatisfied, "Why is it so slow?"
Wu Kainu was cunning and the progress of the case was two days later than originally planned. This is very bad. Delay will lead to changes.
"Hey, do you want the other party to cooperate?" Fu Shanyue said helplessly, "Cen Boqing is short of manpower now.
If I want to deliver news to him, I have to make sure that they find out about it themselves. Do you think this is easy?"
"Brother Fan, haven't you done anything unusual in the past few days?"
"Fan Sheng was guarding his bear and didn't move much. He seemed to be honest." Fu Shanyue snorted, "The day I besieged Cen's Mansion, they didn't show up either. They were probably cowardly."
The Fan brothers owe favors to the Zhongsun family, not to the Cen family. Even if Cen Boqing loses his head, they don't bother to care.
Having said this, he patted He Lingchuan on the shoulder: "I think there is no need for you to go to Lingxu City anymore. You can just stay in Chiyan. I will give you a high-ranking official position."
Before He Lingchuan had time to reply, a guard hurried in from outside and reported to Fu Shanyue Road:
"There is someone outside asking to see the prince. He claims to be the special envoy of Duyun sent by Lingxu City. His surname is Bai. The other one is Commander Fan."
Fu Shanyue was startled, and he looked at each other with He Lingchuan, and both said in their hearts, "Here we come."
But why did you come so early?
According to Fu Shanyue's original inference, the news of Zhongsun Mou's murder had just reached the imperial capital at this time. Regarding the selection of the special envoy, there should be some back-and-forth in Lingxu City, right? Then the special envoy would set off again, or from other places.
Local dispatch.
Calculating this way, there should be more than twenty days before and after.
How could it be possible that it’s here now? It’s just at this moment.
If something goes wrong, trouble will surely follow.
Fu Shanyue's brows almost knotted: "How could it be Du Yunshi? This is wrong."
It was the first time He Lingchuan heard this title: "Who is Du Yunshi?"
"There is a Celestial Palace on the Xu Mountain, and within the Celestial Palace there is a Star-Zhaing Tower. There are nearly 2,000 attendants in the building dedicated to communicating with the gods. The person in charge of the Star-Zhaing Tower is the Duyunshi. They are divided into chief and deputy officers, all of whom are of high rank. It is also said that the surname is Bai.
, that’s probably Duyun’s deputy envoy Bai Ziqi.”
He Lingchuan took the time and asked the most crucial sentence:
"Which group does he belong to in Lingxu City?"
People are divided into left, center and right. Lingxu City must have weighed the situation before sending the envoy. Just by looking at this person's origin, status and faction, He Lingchuan can probably know Lingxu City's attitude towards this case.
Should we investigate thoroughly, or should we just calm down the situation quickly?
Do you want to be selfless, or do you have to worry about the complicated relationships in the imperial capital?
