Kong Xu asked people to disperse the people watching the excitement outside, and then returned to the courtyard. He looked thoughtfully at the blood stains in front of him that were not cleaned up in order to preserve the scene. The blood stains had turned black because of too long.

Like the darkness coming from the abyss, it is frightening and scary.

As the governor of Kyoto, Kong Xu has seen such scenes before, but they were all many years ago, especially after experiencing that war. For him, today's scene is...

It's nothing, but it seems that this kind of thing hasn't happened in Kyoto Prefecture of Chu State for a long time, so this time it seems particularly tricky and a little weird.

"I don't know who is so brave and dares to do such a thing in Kyoto Prefecture." Kong Xu thought to himself.

"Sir..." The air behind the governor of Kyoto became distorted, and then a young man in black clothes and white hair gradually emerged.

"Lu Qing, can you tell which force did this?" Kong Xu glanced at the young man in black clothes and white hair behind him.

Lu Qing remained silent and did not answer his question.

Lu Qing shook his head, and then replied to Kong Xu with some respect: "No, the technique is very skillful. It hits the vital point directly and kills with one blow. There is no flaw left, and it is impossible to tell which martial arts method it is."

Kong Xu frowned after hearing this. It was obvious that Lu Qing's conclusion made him feel a little pressured and even uneasy.

In the capital of the Chu State, Kyoto Prefecture, where the Imperial City is located, someone actually sneaked in at night and killed his entire family. However, the government was not aware of this, and there was no way to investigate afterward, not to mention that the person who was killed was a yamen official.

No matter how people in the capital look at this matter, it smells like conspiracy.

Thinking of this, Kong Xu smacked his mouth playfully, and then said to himself: "It's interesting. Even Lu Qing of Baixiaotang can't see the background. This thing is really interesting."

At this time, Kong Xu seemed to remember something again, and then asked Lu Qing: "Have you found the person the capital is looking for?"

"No." The answer was decisive and without hesitation.

This is the second time Kong Xu heard "no" today.

However, compared with the nervousness and uneasiness he felt when he heard "no" before, this time "no" obviously made him somewhat relieved.

"No, this is good news. If it doesn't, it means there is still a chance." Kong Xu breathed out a sigh of relief, and then said to himself.

"Lu Qing," Kong Xu obviously made a decision while exhaling, which seemed to be a decision related to his own life, "tell the people in the capital this news and say that the person they are looking for is not among the pile of dead people."

, because the remaining matters involve Jianghu forces, the Yasi capital will take over, and I will go to the palace to request an order later."

Now that he has guessed that this matter may be very involved, Kong Xu doesn't want to keep holding on to this hot potato. He doesn't want to track it down to the end and involve himself. After all, he is just a small person.

Let those who have the ability to make headaches do the headaches.

"We don't want to do anything that costs our lives, and we don't have the ability to do it." Kong Xu smiled proudly when he thought of this. This was the intuition he had developed after so many years of hard work in the officialdom. It is exactly like this.

It was intuition that allowed Kong Xu to survive that war, and only this kind of intuition could allow him to survive in Kyoto, which seemed peaceful on the surface but was secretly chaotic.

Linchuan Lane, Nancheng West Street, Kyoto Prefecture, Liang Wangfu.

"Master, Lu Qing is here." Kang Bo lightly knocked on the door and said to the people inside.

"Lu Qing from Baixiaotang?" The person in the room sounded a little suspicious. He didn't understand why the people from Baixiaotang came back to Prince Liang's Mansion to look for him at this time. Then he remembered another incident.

The royal family of the Chu State established the Yasi Capital Office twenty years ago to take charge of martial arts affairs. Since then, all the powerful forces in the world have been loyal to the royal family. They want an official status so that they can do certain things in the future more conveniently. Besides,

This kind of thigh-hugging thing is a rare opportunity. Of course, since some people like to hug their thighs, there are also people who don’t want to hug their thighs. The former Bai Xiaotang was one of the forces who didn’t like to hug their thighs, and he was a relatively famous one. It’s just Yue

Some time ago, the "die-hard" sect leader of Baixiaotang passed away due to illness, and the new sect leader was a person who liked to "hug someone's thighs." So the first thing the new sect leader did when he took office was to publicly pledge his allegiance to the royal family and join the Yasi capital.

In order to show his sincerity, Lu Qing, the leader of the younger generation in his family, was sent to Kyoto Prefecture to serve as a royal servant. As soon as he came out, all the major forces in the world were in an uproar. This made Bai Xiaotang, who is famous for his knowledge of world affairs,

, there is another reason to be famous.

Thinking of this, the man in the room laughed to himself, and then thought to himself: "I came to Kyoto Prefecture a month ago, and I went to see him a few days ago. How could I forget?"

Seeing that there was no response in the room, Kang Bo continued, "I'm here about Master Yu."

Hearing Kang Bo mention Master Yu, the people in the room opened the door, and the cold winter sunshine shone on the young man's face, as soft as if he had just left.

It's like jade fished out of water.

"Is there him?" The young man seemed a little afraid to ask, as if he was afraid of getting an answer he didn't want to know.

Since early this morning, news came from people below that something happened at the mansion on East Street. Chu Ci contacted Kong Xu, the Kyoto government official in charge of the matter, and asked him to find someone among the people.

people.

The Yasi Capital is an Anbu established by the royal family. Since it is an Anbu, there are naturally some things that cannot be seen in the light, such as the location of the Yasi Capital. Everyone in the world knows that the Yasi Capital was established by the Chu royal family and is specifically managed for the royal family.

All the big and small things that happen in the martial arts world are located somewhere in Kyoto Prefecture, but when it comes to the specific location, no one knows. Even the members of the Yasi Prefecture except Baixiao like Lu Qing.

Except for the external forces like Tang, whose identities can be disclosed, the specific members of the other eight affiliated departments of the Yasi Capital are not known to the outside world.

To put it bluntly, the Yasi Capital Palace is the secret weapon of the Chu royal family, so it cannot be revealed, at least not now.

Therefore, as the chief minister of the Yasi capital, Chu Ci wanted to keep this secret, so he could not appear in that house, even if his best friend lived in that house.

So he could only wait in this mansion, like a traveler looking forward to returning from a distant place, his eyes filled with persistence and expectation.

In a room deep in the east courtyard of Prince Liang's Mansion, Lu Qing sat there quietly, like a student waiting for his wife to attend class, with a focused and serious expression.

The first time Lu Qing came to Kyoto Prefecture was eight years ago. At that time, he was only twelve years old. After the twelve-year-old Lu Qing came to Kyoto Prefecture with his father, he entered Prince Liang's Mansion. So this is not

He came to Prince Liang's Mansion for the first time. Chu Ci was only ten years old at that time, and he was chased by his master in the courtyard with a face full of fear. Little Lu Qing was arranged by his father to wait in the courtyard, so he had more

It was time to look at Xiao Chuci who was standing aside and the master who was glared at by Xiao Chuci angrily.

He thought that he would never be able to do something like this that would make his master angry. If his uncle, the head of the sect, found out, he would inevitably be punished.

The door was pushed open, and the dazzling winter sun spilled into the room along the crack in the door. Soon it swallowed up the darkness in the entire room. A young man walked in outside the door. Lu Qing had seen it before, not just eight people.

We met years ago and a few days ago. They were introduced by Kong Xu at the Kyoto government office, so the two young people who had had a relationship met each other. Only then did Lu Qing know that what was happening in front of him
