Chapter 126: The Princess Summons(1/2)
Hengqing Supervisory Court hesitated and said: "How do you know, sir?"
The name of Hengyuan was told to him by Xu Erlang, who asked Xu Erlang to go to the Yangsheng Hall to look for No. 6, but No. 6 had already left. When Xu Erlang told Xu Qi'an, he said: Officials told me that Master Hengyuan has left. It is said that
I have a clue from my junior brother.
"Don't worry about how I know, I'm asking you now." Xu Qian's expression was serious and he didn't look down upon this non-violent and non-cooperative monk.
Although if he fights alone, the Qinglong Temple Supervisor may be able to pin him to the ground and rub him.
But Xu Qi'an has brothers and the court behind him.
Hengqing Supervisor hesitated slightly and said: "Hengyuan is a warrior monk in the temple. He is impulsive and has a bad temper. He is often punished by the abbot for accidentally hurting his fellow disciples. He was expelled from Qinglong Temple last year."
No. 6 is indeed a monk and warrior monk from Qinglong Temple? No wonder he looks like Lu Zhishen... No. 6 said that his junior brother was abducted by human traffickers... Could the junior brother No. 6 is looking for be Heng Hui?
But Henghui eloped with Princess Pingyang... However, Henghui stole the magic weapon of Qinglong Temple, but that magic weapon appeared on the body of Zhou Chixiong, a hundred households in Jinwu Guards. Does this mean that Henghui stole the magic weapon of Qinglong Temple?
Monk Hui has encountered an accident?
Or, he was also involved in the Sangbo case. If it was the latter, what was his purpose? Also, where did the master of Pingyang County go?
This trip to Qinglong Temple yielded more than he expected.
....
Although I was very deliberately in a hurry, I worked hard all the way, and it was already more than an hour later when I returned to the Yamen for the night watch.
Xu Qian asked the team members to take a short break, then closed the door to sort out and summarize the case.
Then take out the fragments of the book from the ground and enter the information: [3: Is there no news on the 6th? 】
No one paid any attention to him.
After a long time, Taoist Priest Jinlian jumped out to save his respect: [Nine: There is no news yet.]
Xu Qian was keenly aware that No. 6 might have discovered something or was in an extremely dangerous situation, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to not reply after so long.
[3: Taoist Priest Jinlian, you haven’t located the fragment of the Book of Earth yet?]
[Nine: It must have been blocked by some secret method.]
[2: Why does the bald man always get into trouble? 】
Number 2 jumped out and interrupted.
[Nine: He has been investigating the case of his junior brother’s disappearance. Perhaps, he encountered revenge from the forces behind Ping Yuanbo. 】
No, he found clues about his junior brother... But the result is the same. No matter what, No. 6 is in big trouble.
[Four: If the fragments of the Book from the Earth fall into the hands of outsiders, then we can only do as we did before and no longer pass on any messages.]
[Two: If it falls into the hands of the Earth Sect, all of us may be in danger. 】
Having said this, everyone in Tiandihui felt anxiety and psychological pressure.
Not only are they worried about the safety of No. 6, but they will no longer send letters to the earth. The message exchange model that the Tiandi Society has finally created will exist in name only.
In the worst case scenario, once it falls into the hands of the Earth Sect, the members of the Earth Sect are usually not afraid. But what if the Earth Sect leader personally collects the Earth Book?
No. 1 and No. 3 were fine. They were hiding in the capital. The Taoist leader of the Earth Sect was worried, but the others were in danger.
[Two: By the way, please help No. 3. 】
[Four: Well, if No. 3 can use the connections at Yunlu Academy to secretly assist Taoist Priest Jin Lian, then the difficulty of finding No. 6 will be greatly reduced. 】
Unknowingly, the members of the Tiandi Society have become more dependent on No. 3 than No. 1, who always likes to peek at the screen.
When it comes to the boundaries of Dafeng Capital City, No. 3 subconsciously comes to mind.
....Why do I feel like I have become a tool?
The identity and current situation of No. 6 is the first-hand information I have just obtained. If it is spread out now, the risk of identity exposure is very high. I have to make a time lag... Well, unless all members of the Tiandihui know about No. 6
Root feet.
[Three: Do you know the identity of No. 6? I mean besides the information that he is a Buddhist disciple.]
[Two: I don’t know. Number 6 claims to be a wandering Buddhist disciple and plans to stay in the capital for a long time. 】
No. 6 is pretending to be an outsider... Well, this monk has a better brain than Lu Zhishen!
Xu Qian knew what was going on and entered the message: [Don't worry about this matter. I will contact Taoist Priest Jinlian. I know the situation on the 6th better than anyone else. Taoist Priest, can you come tonight?
Where do I live? I have something to discuss with you.】
"!!!"
Seeing the words of No. 3, for some reason, everyone in the Tiandi Club felt awe-inspiring at the same time, with a feeling of thorns in their backs.
No. 3 actually figured out No. 6's background, and it seemed that he had a certain grasp of his current situation. They had only met briefly... As expected, the scholars at Yunlu Academy are very capable.
Strong...No. 2 thought fearfully.
Number 3 is a bit interesting. He was the latest to join the club, but the skill, ability and acumen he showed are astonishing. I look forward to meeting him when I return to the capital in the future. I will learn from him... Number 4 sincerely appreciates it.
.
[Five: Wow, then you must not check my identity, otherwise I will be angry. 】
No. 5 said what was in his heart directly.
[1: No. 3, regarding the Sangbo case, do you have more accurate information? 】
[Three: I haven’t paid attention to the Sangbo case these days.]
No. 1 saw this and went diving.
After agreeing on a meeting time with Taoist Priest Jinlian, Xu Qi'an left the side hall and went straight to Haoqi Tower to ask to see Wei Yuan.
In the bright and bright tea room, Wei Yuan sat alone in front of the table, playing chess with his left hand against his right hand, as if he was performing a lonely one-man show.
Wei Yuan didn't even raise his head and said with a smile: "I have been playing chess for half my life. In the beginning, I fought and lost again and again. Later, I gradually got better and defeated each national player. Before I knew it, I could no longer find it.
Enemy."
The last time you played chess with Jian Zheng, didn't you get a tie? Xu Qian complained inwardly.
"But there are so many enemies outside the chessboard that it's a headache." Wei Yuan put down the chess pieces, pinched his brows, and said:
"What's the matter?"
"My humble duty is to report the progress of the case to Duke Wei," Xu Qian said after a pause: "Yesterday morning, Magistrate Zhao of Taikang County was silenced on the night he was imprisoned. The government has kept this matter secret for the time being."
"The death of Magistrate Zhao was very strange. There was no poisoning or wounds. He died naturally."
Wei Yuan's expression suddenly paused. After a few seconds, his eyes flickered: "What do you think?"
"I checked the information and found that the only people who can do this are the Taoist Yinshen and the Wushen Cult in the Northeast." Xu Qian took a deep breath:
"The Sangbo case involves the demon clan and the Northeastern Witch God Cult. I racked my brains and thought about who else in the court could collude with these two forces at the same time except that one."
Bang! Wei Yuan pressed his palm on the chessboard, and all the chess pieces trembled. He stared at Xu Qi'an sharply: "After you leave here, you must not say these words to anyone."
Xu Qi'an quickly lowered his head and explained: "Yes, it's hard to continue the investigation because of my humble position..."
"Get back." Wei Yuan said coldly.
"Yes!" Xu Qian exited the tea room.
Listening to the footsteps fading away, Wei Yuan methodically collected the chess pieces and cleaned the tea tray. He changed into green clothes, walked to the stairs, and ordered the officials on duty:
"Prepare the carriage, I am going into the palace."
.....
Xu Qi'an only regretted that he didn't have a cigarette at hand, so he could only sit dryly when thinking. He listened to Lu Qing and the three Yin Luo exchanging the case, and he felt so lost in his thoughts.
"The King of Zhenbei is far away in the frontier fortress. It is impossible for me to go to the frontier fortress to investigate, and I dare not to investigate. Unless His Majesty personally issues an imperial edict, I cannot investigate the great god with just a gold medal."
"Being at the frontier...hey, I can give myself a perfect alibi."
"But there is no perfect crime in the world. As long as you commit it, it will leave clues. The key is whether I can seize these clues... Well, the King of Zhenbei is not in the capital, but he needs a spokesperson, and that spokesperson must be
It's someone from the court."
The clue about King Zhenbei cannot be investigated for the time being because Wei Yuan refuses to help him. If Wei Yuan can get the decree, then everything will be fine.
Fortunately, a cunning rabbit has more than one nest, and a wise man has more than one path.
Today's trip to Qinglong Temple was not in vain. Monk Henghui of Qinglong Temple was a breakthrough. If you want to follow this breakthrough, you have to find a way to find No. 6.
This is why Xu Qi'an asked for a night meeting with Taoist Priest Jin Lian.
"Tuk tuk..."
The knock on the door interrupted the discussion between Lu Qing and the three Yin Luo, causing them to frown and look outside the door.
The taciturn Zhu Guangxiao stood by the door and said, "Ning Yan, the eldest princess invites you."
Lu Qing and others turned to look at Xu Qian.
What does Huaiqing want from me... Miss me? Oh, didn't we just meet yesterday? It seems like three autumns have passed since we last saw each other!
In Xu Qi'an's mind, the beautiful Qing Leng Princess appeared, as well as her majestic mind that could be placed on the table.
To be continued...
