So, would you rather die than tell them and involve them?
But people are so strange, the more things they don't let others know, the more they want to know.
In addition, the repeated reunions with the Xiong brothers and the happenings made it impossible for Song Qiu and Aling to really stay out of the matter and watch them die.
You have already saved them, but can you really watch them die?
Yesterday, I thought they were safe and could find shelter in Shouzhou safely, but now, it is not possible.
Aling suddenly said: "Although the men in black who are chasing you are from the Jianghu world, the people behind them should not be from the Jianghu world, right?"
This is what Aling suddenly thought of.
Even if people in the Jianghu are really sworn enemies, they will still have concerns, because the Xiong brothers are not just unknown people. The leader of the Tianji Sect is their uncle, and the Tianji Sect is one of the top sects in the world.
, who wouldn’t care about how much face they have?
Unless the person behind it is not from the Jianghu, so he will not care about this. Even if he reaches the territory of Shouzhou, the territory of the Tianji sect, he still dares to take action without hesitation.
The Xiong brothers must also be concerned about the identity of the person behind this. Even when they arrived in Shouzhou, they did not dare to take the initiative to send a distress signal to the Tianji faction. They could only be cut off and fled back.
The person who can kill people regardless of the morality of the world, and can make the Xiong brothers worry about the Tianji sect getting into trouble, is the person behind this...
"It has something to do with the imperial court, right?"
This can only be like this. Although the rivers and lakes and the imperial court do not interfere with the rivers, the only thing that can make people in the rivers and lakes fearful is the power of the imperial court.
Yes, only the power of the imperial court could kill hundreds of members of the Jiang family in one night, and put the blame on the Xiong brothers, without making any noise in the world.
If it were some martial arts force, the martial arts world would definitely be in turmoil, and it wouldn't be so quiet.
Sometimes, being too quiet is a problem.
Aling's eyes were intense, and Song Qiu also raised her eyebrows. She agreed with what Aling said, and the person behind it must be related to the imperial court.
The two of them observed the reactions of the Xiong brothers at a glance. Xiong Er opened his mouth, obviously surprised, and Xiong Da also raised his eyebrows quickly.
They guessed it right!
If it is the power of the imperial court...
Song Qiu calmly thought about ways to save the two Xiong brothers.
The forces in the imperial court were intertwined and complicated, but she happened to know Prince Changshan. Prince Changshan and his son were staunch royalists and deeply trusted by the emperor. They made great contributions in the invasion of Changle Kingdom at the beginning of the year, and were even more praised.
The Emperor's Great Reward.
What she knows is that the emperor absolutely sincerely trusts Prince Changshan's Mansion and values his cousin Prince Changshan.
Now, Prince Changshan stayed in the capital and served in the Ministry of Punishment.
These major and important cases across the country will eventually be transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for review.
The prisoner and the prisoner must also be escorted to the Ministry of Punishment for final trial and then execution.
Therefore, she was saying that if Prince Changshan wanted to investigate this case, with his status in the Ministry of Punishment, he could intervene and investigate.
But if she wants to trouble Prince Changshan for help, she must show sincerity.
"So, who is the power of the imperial court? Only when you tell us can we find a way to help you." Song Qiu said solemnly.
When Xiong Da heard this, he was confused. He thought that Miss Song was just an ordinary businessman. Why did he look like this? He felt that she had connections with the imperial court. What kind of power was behind her?
Also, if a little girl dares to open inns all over the country, how can she not have anyone to support her?
He hesitated for a moment, but he was also afraid that the force behind her was the one who wanted to kill them.
Aling saw his hesitation and said directly: "The person who wants to kill you is not the current Holy One, right?"
Xiong Da quickly denied, "Of course not. How can you kill people and silence them in such a dignified manner? What's more, if you want to kill us two gangsters, why bother?"
"Since he's not the emperor, what can't be said? Just tell him, and only then can we help." As long as this person is not the emperor, she can ask Prince Changshan to help her.
Xiong Da heard what she meant, gritted his teeth for a moment, and finally opened his mouth, "It's... King Yan."
"King Yan?" Song Qiu was shocked.
Although she had never seen this person before, she had heard about him many times.
Initially, she and Lihua met a murderer on Songshan Mountain, and then picked up a bronze bird, and then accidentally uncovered the secret of Songshan Village.
Wasn't that bronze bird stolen from King Yan by the Crown Prince?
Therefore, King Yan, like the Crown Prince and King Hou, are all looking for the treasure of the bronze bird.
In the end, the treasure fell into the hands of the Crown Prince and was used in this war. There was some leftover, and it probably went into the Holy Master's private treasury.
And what kind of person is King Yan?
Song Qiu remembered that time last year, on her way back from Yanghuai Village, she heard passers-by talking about King Yan, saying that he refused to marry the princess, and it was probably because of his broken sleeves?
It was also said that he was the son of Concubine Mei Xian, whom the late emperor had always favored, and who was later remembered as the queen mother's daughter. At that time, he was the most likely candidate to become the heir apparent.
It's just that the current emperor is still the one who ascends the throne later, while King Yan travels around, has no fiefdom, and is an idle prince?
Judging from what happened, there is a big problem.
Song Qiu immediately thought of what Xiong Da said before about the Jiang family's actions, colluding with officials and businessmen to amass money, and wooing Jianghu forces to secretly eliminate dissidents?
The master of the Jiang family is King Yan, and there is something wrong with the Jiang family's dog or he has rebelled against him. The master can't keep him, so he kills him?
It happened that the Xiong brothers were also in the Jiang family at that time. When they failed to eliminate them, they took advantage of the situation and put a blame on their brothers, while also sending people to kill and silence them?
Song Qiu felt that he had a glimpse of the truth. This was pretty much the same, and that was probably what happened.
Sure enough, Xiong Da then said: "When we were hiding in that room, the person who talked to the head of the Jiang family was sent by the King of Yan. The people who killed the Jiang family later were all officers and soldiers, and the leader was the Lizhou Guard.
Commander Chen of the institute."
Xiong Da fell into memories again, remembering the short conversation in that room.
"How are things going?"
"Please tell King Yan that everything is going well. All the gold mines in Mahuaipo and Jinshanling have been dug out. It is scheduled to be lifted on the third day of the Lunar New Year. As long as all the gold is transported out, the mines will be blocked. All the people in the mines,
If you don’t leave anyone behind, there will definitely be no mistakes.”
"Very good, you have accomplished such a great feat, and after it is accomplished, the master will not treat you badly!"
"This is what I should do. I only hope that Your Highness will be victorious, succeed immediately, and accomplish great things!"
…
Song Qiu was frightened when he heard this.
Gold mine?
The idle King of Yan has endless wealth and splendor, so what does he need so much money for?
Even the commanders of the Lizhou Guard Station were at his disposal, and the prefect of Lizhou was probably also taking orders from King Yan.
What great cause?
Is King Yan going to rebel?
Puff thump thump thump, Song Qiu's heart beat faster.
After a long while, she finally made up her mind, "You need to recover from your injuries first, and I will think of a way to send you to Beijing!"
What to do in Beijing?
Naturally, I am looking for the crown prince!
For such a big matter, the prince will help even if he doesn't want to.
What's more, only by overthrowing King Yan will the Xiong brothers be completely fine.
It cannot be said that because of this incident, he has made great achievements!
