Chapter 602 The Art of Passing on Heart and Shadow
There must have been interactions between Shuangye Guoshi and Nian Zanli. After all, he allocated Yuanli to Nian Zanli and sent Hong Chenglue to support him.
Although the outcome of that battle was not very good, no matter what Nian Zanli thought of Shuangye Imperial Master and Hong Chenglue, he must have paid homage to Shuangye Imperial Master and asked for troops when he went to Lingxu City this time.
When you live under someone else's roof, you have to be humble.
Now Imperial Master Shuangye is willing to help, but he didn't directly accept Nian Zanli's request. Instead, he first went around to Fushanyue/He Xiao and made it clear that he would be a favor to them.
The Imperial Master is also impeccable in his work.
Xi Yunhe nodded: "If you are entrusted by your Majesty, you must be loyal to your Majesty."
It means that we have fulfilled your request and it is your turn.
He Lingchuan sat upright: "I am all ears."
"The elixir of life case is related to Cen Boqing. The day after this document was delivered to the emperor, a fire broke out in Qingfu Temple. One hundred and twenty people in the temple were burned to death, ranging from the abbot to the night watchman and the secretary.
Shui, Zhongtou, etc., no one escaped. When Bai Ziqi checked here, the clues were cut off." Xi Yunhe said eloquently, "So Qingyang Imperial Master has been going out as usual recently, acting as if nothing has happened, even knowing that no one else can catch him.
Empirical evidence.”
"Where's the proof?"
"Set fire is the best way to destroy evidence." Xi Yunhe said, "In fact, it is also the most error-prone. Because everyone is burned beyond recognition and cannot be identified."
He Lingchuan stroked his chin: "Is this how Imperial Master Shuangye helped you fake your death?"
Xi Yunhe ignored it.
"The number of dead is wrong, doesn't Qing Gong have any doubts?"
"Only 103 bodies were found afterwards. It's not surprising that there are a few bodies missing in such a big fire."
After a shocking fire, there will always be people missing. What’s more, the fire in Qingfu Temple was a bit strange. Witnesses at the scene said it also had a bit of purple light. Is it strange that it burned several people?
Xi Yunhe continued: "There was a temple priest in Qingfu Temple named Kong Jiaxiang. That night he quietly went to Nanli District to find his old friend. He stayed outside without reporting to the temple. As a result, he woke up after sleeping and heard that Qingfu
The temple was burned to the ground. This man was also clever and did not go back to check at all. Instead, he immediately left the city with oil on his feet and went back south to his hometown to stay in Yangshui."
"Is he still in Yangshui now?"
"Yes." Xi Yunhe laughed in a low voice, "We have someone to keep an eye on us, but he doesn't know."
"Even Imperial Master Qingyang thought Kong Jiaxiang was dead, how did you know he was alive in Yangshui?" He Lingchuan looked at him with a secretly wary look. Could it be that the fire in Qingfu Temple was set off by Shuangye Imperial Master's men?
Think Xi Yunhe could assume the alias Mai Xuewen and kill monsters to obtain pearls and leave clues under Wu Kai, as if the Imperial Master Shuangye set fire to the Qingfu Temple and it would be very smooth, right?
"Do you think we set the fire?" Xi Yunhe shook his head, "That is the most important place and evidence for smuggling elixirs. How could we burn it down? We originally thought that once the fire was burned, everything would be over, until later
Two days later, someone discovered that Kong Jiaxiang's old friend behaved as usual, and even smiled happily without any sadness when chatting with neighbors."
He Lingchuan's eyes flickered: "Kong Jiaxiang is in love, who found out?"
"Of course it's me." Xi Yunhe said calmly, "I was staring at him three years ago."
"If you have this question, it's better to check it out." He said word by word, "This time, it's the Qingyang Imperial Master who has bad luck, and God wants to take her away!"
Otherwise, why was it not Imperial Master Qingyang who discovered that Kong Jiaxiang was not dead first, but Imperial Master Shuangye?
"There are more than a hundred people in the temple, are they all helping to sell the elixir?"
"Of course that's impossible. There are only three or five people who know about it." Xi Yunhe said, "Kong Jiaxiang will be responsible for handing over and keeping accounts. As long as Bai Ziqi catches him, he will naturally be able to follow the lead to Qinggong."
He sneered: "Actually, Bai Ziqi knows very well that the elixir is privately produced by Qinggong. But to deal with such an opponent, it is impossible without evidence."
He said it in an understatement, but He Lingchuan knew that this clue was hard to come by, just like finding a way out of hundreds of dead ends, it took a lot of effort.
Xi Yunhe's personal business ability is indeed outstanding. It is no wonder that various investigations back then revealed that Qingyang Imperial Master had no temper and had to get rid of him in the end.
He Lingchuan breathed out: "Then I want to ask, Du Yunshi was helpless when facing the fire in Qingfu Temple. How could I, an outsider, find out that Kong Jiaxiang is alive and well?"
Bai Ziqi must ask him or Fu Shanyue to reveal the source of the information. There is no way around this problem.
"Because Kong Jiaxiang also has another identity. He is not only a fellow villager of Wu Kai, but also the brother of Wu Kai's daughter-in-law." Xi Yunhe said lightly, "You can say that when searching for the background of Wu Kai's hometown, we found such a living person, but
You also found out that he was on the death list of Qingfu Temple."
"Yangshui is in Chiyan, it's only natural that you can find him."
He Lingchuan thought for a while: "This is a good idea, but for safety reasons, I have to send an informant back to Yangshui."
Even though Xi Yunhe's ability was obvious to all and the possibility of lying about this case was very small, the matter was so important that He Lingchuan still couldn't let go without sending his own spies to take a look.
Xi Yunhe was not surprised: "It's up to you, but you have to act quickly, otherwise things will change if you are too late."
Kong Jiaxiang is the trump card they worked so hard to obtain. If he is eliminated by the Qing Palace again, the truth about the elixir case may never be revealed again.
He Lingchuan thought for a while and then said: "By the way, last night Prince Huan went to Pan Shan's house to kill people and set fire to it. Did you know that?"
"Everyone in the city knows it."
"Do you know who did it?"
Xi Yunhe said: "You have so many enemies, don't you have any idea?"
He Lingchuan smiled bitterly: "Can it be found out?"
"I advise you not to act rashly." Xi Yunhe's puppet said with a straight face, "Just carry out the task obediently."
"The Imperial Master will protect me." He Lingchuan smiled and said, "What if these people take action again?"
"Didn't the emperor give a house to Prince Chiyan?" Xi Yunhe said lightly, "He also assigned Tongxin Guards to protect you."
"It's not like you don't know about Tongxinwei's relationship with me." He Lingchuan touched his nose, "It would be considered generous of the Fan brothers if they don't cause trouble for me. If a thief sneaks in and wants to take my life, they might just listen.
Of."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "If something happens to the Chiyan people, the emperor will not look good." Xi Yunhe said with a smile, "If we know that someone is going to deal with you, we will inform you in advance. Yes.
Yes, I will teach you 'Shadow of Heart'."
The transfer of mind and shadow is the magical power to turn a living person into a puppet and control his words and deeds in a short period of time.
During this period, the dominated person has no memory and will not even feel the passage of time.
But this kind of spell usually only works on idle people and those who are weak or comatose, and has almost no effect on those who are determined. Otherwise, Xi Yunhe could just control He Lingchuan to find Bai Ziqi, why bother to negotiate terms with him?
"What if the opponent is old and frail, but has Yuan Power to protect him?" He Lingchuan likes to get into trouble.
Xi Yunhe looked at him strangely: "Yuanli? I don't know how other countries allocate it. As long as they don't go to the battlefield, most officials in Lingxu City are not equipped with Yuanli. Yuanli is so precious that even Beijia doesn't give it to the officials.
.”
He Lingchuan suddenly realized: "That's it."
"Also, people controlled by the teleportation technique cannot perform tasks that are too complex, such as fighting."
He Lingchuan smiled again and said: "Which national master taught you this technique of teleportation between minds and shadows?"
"None of them." Xi Yunhe said, "I got ancient books by chance and taught myself."
There are all kinds of strange martial arts in this world, many of which were handed down from ancient times and the middle ages, and it is difficult for the world to know them all.
"Do they know you know this secret skill?"
Xi Yunhe said calmly: "This has nothing to do with you."
That means he doesn't know, He Lingchuan understood. It seems that this guy has learned well and no longer tells everything about Shuangye Guoshi, his savior.
Xi Yunhe explained the techniques and key points clearly in a few words, and then said: "Although Imperial Master Qingyang doesn't know what we are doing here, he will not sit still and wait for death. Please pay attention later."
He Lingchuan's eyes moved slightly: "What other tricks does she have?"
"She often goes to see the emperor recently." Qingyang Guoshi's friendship with the two emperors is very deep. Sometimes, even if you don't do anything else, it is most useful to just play a dozen emotional cards. "In addition, she is also good at it.
It was a secret operation. Don't think that she was beaten back step by step by Shuangye Imperial Master and had no strength to fight back. Oh, she couldn't see any movement on the outside, but maybe the recent events in Lingxu City are related to her.
"
"recent?"
"Maybe, it also includes what you encountered."
He Lingchuan was shocked: "You mean, our recent attacks are related to her?"
In addition to the fact that he planned the explosion of the post house himself, someone poisoned him, and someone instigated Prince Huan to intercept the Chiyan people and burn down Panshan's house.
So far, no one behind these cases has been found.
Could it be related to Qing Palace?
Yes, facing the pressing steps of Bai Ziqi and the Chiyan people, how could Qingyang Imperial Master remain indifferent?
"Maybe." Xi Yunhe's puppet shrugged stiffly, "It's just a personal guess, based solely on my understanding of her."
He said no more and told He Lingchuan to complete the task as soon as possible before leaving.
After the man left, He Lingchuan did not waste any time and summoned Goshawk into the house.
"Here comes a new job. Help me fly to Yangshui in Chiyan again to check on people and get some information."
A man with wings can travel a thousand miles in a day, and it only takes a few days to go back and forth across the water.

At night, it snows for the first time in Panlong City.
He Lingchuan was walking on the street when he suddenly felt a chill on his face. Fine flakes of snow came unexpectedly and dug into people's necks.
Pedestrians on the street tightened their clothes and quickened their pace.
It's so cold, it's only right to go home and sit by the fire.
He Lingchuan walked into a medicine shop, ordered some medicinal materials, and asked the shopkeeper to cook Baihu soup for him.
"Does anyone at home want to sober up?"
He Lingchuan smiled: "Yes."
He originally thought that after leaving Xushan, he would enter Panlong City at night, but that night he first had a dream about the Taoist Tree, and the next day he met Prince Lingxu who came to kill people and set fire to him.
Tonight, we finally entered the city.
After a while, the white tiger soup was cooked. He was not afraid of burning it, so he picked up the earthen pot and walked back.
