The receptionist was so scared that he almost peed his pants.
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and glanced at the bodies of the four men in black on the ground.
"Little one, little one doesn't know, they just came to find Fu Guang Qinghe Chuan. They used my family to coerce me, so..."
"Then let's go find your family too." Xia Zhaoyi interrupted him.
"No!" the receptionist cried.
"Listen," Xia Zhaoyi frowned sharply, the dagger almost touching the bridge of the receptionist's nose, "We don't have time to talk nonsense with you. If you don't tell the truth, our family will make you die miserably. And, those
The person who was drugged by you is about to wake up."
The receptionist turned his head and looked over there, sweating profusely.
"Tell me, tell me everything you know." Xia Zhaoyi said coldly.
While they were talking, Shen Lie took off all the face cloths of the four men in black and briefly searched them. There was no money or identity documents. The bodies only had hidden weapons, daggers, ropes and poison.
Xia Zhaoyi was very impatient and forced the receptionist to answer her questions.
The receptionist was dishonest and had reservations in answering questions, but her detailed observation and logic of speech could not escape her, and she was finally forced to tell everything she knew.
He really didn't know the true origins of the four men in black. The other party gave them a lot of money, and they had been doing things for each other all these years.
Xia Zhaoyi asked how many years.
The receptionist replied, three years.
These four men in black are very interested in the Star-Zhaing Tower. They have broken into the palace more than once over the years and have removed at least twenty treasures from the Star-Zhaing Tower.
This time, their interest was in the Fuguang Qinghe Book.
There are nine pieces in total in the Fuguang Qinghe album, and the person in charge is quite clear about the origins of the other pieces that have been found.
When Li Zhi left the capital, there was great chaos in Yong'an, and the imperial city was destroyed by the mob. A large number of crazy civilians rushed into the palace and looted it, and the treasures in the Star-Zhaing Tower were severely robbed.
After it became too difficult to move, someone set fire to it. Fortunately, the fire was put out in time.
Now for the Fuguang Qinghe Book, they found two of them from the public, one was found in the Star-Zhaing Tower of Tiansheng Palace, and the current Xinghe Zhanjian is another one.
Xia Zhaoyi asked what the purpose was. After the receptionist did Tai Chi for half a day, Xia Zhaoyi finally pressed him and pointed to the carved background: "They haven't told me, but it should be related to this astrology."
In this starry sky, Xia Zhaoyi didn't see anything strange for a moment. She asked the receptionist to hand over the small wooden sign, and after identifying the name on it, she threw the small wooden sign back.
Xia Zhaoyi looked at Shen Lie, paused, and said, "Zhi Yan."
Shen Lie was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at her, his dark eyes were pure and deep.
Xia Zhaoyi just didn't want to call out his name in front of the caller. Unexpectedly, when she said these two words, she felt her palms become soft and itchy.
"...That letter," Xia Zhaoyi said, "leave it on them."
Shen Lie nodded and took out the letter from his arms.
This was a letter specially prepared by Xia Zhaoyi and originally intended to be placed in the Xunji Hall.
On the day of the Queen's funeral, the funeral ceremony is held in the palace, and the prison guard must look at the moon and stars, so he will definitely use the Xunji Hall.
As for the celestial star chart of the Xunji Hall, Xia Zhaoyi could memorize all the 1,124 dark grids arranged in order, and the dark patterns engraved on the four sides of each dark grid except the top and bottom.
She knew that if she hid the letter in the corner of the box, the prisoner would definitely find it.
And in full view of the public, he dared not not hand over the prisoner to the emperor.
Now, the appearance of these men in black made Xia Zhaoyi change his mind.
Shen Lie stuffed the letter into the clothes of one of the men in black and asked, "So, where is the key?"
"Look for another place." Xia Zhaoyi said.
She looked at the person who responded, and raised the picture of the Galaxy Sword in her hand: "There is usually almost no one in Zhaixing Tower. This time, because of the grand ceremony in the palace, only the people from the Taishi Bureau came here to pray. Do these four people know about this?"
The receptionist frowned and said: "You know, we specifically mentioned it to them, saying that this trip should not be made, it is very dangerous..."
Look, something unexpected happened.
"Then these four people still insist on coming?" Xia Zhaoyi said.
The responder nodded.
"It seems that this thing is very useful to them," Xia Zhaoyi looked down at the picture of the Galaxy Sword in his hand, "At least, it is very urgent."
At this time, the death knell rang in the distance, and another hour passed.
Xia Zhaoyi raised his head and looked out the window, then looked at the unconscious figures in the hall.
"Eunuch." Shen Lie held up the wooden box.
Xia Zhaoyi put the picture of Xinghe Sword back and said to the caller: "Where are your letters and the banknotes or bank account numbers they gave you at home?"
The person who responded turned pale.
"If you tell our family, you will still have value. After our family leaves, if others ask about these four men in black, it is up to you to say whatever you want to benefit yourself. But if you don't tell
Our family, then..."
There was the sound of clothes being moved behind him, and the person who responded turned around. A man lying in bed seemed to be about to wake up.
"I'm telling you!" the caller said quickly, "I'm telling you! I live in Du Guangfang. There is a pot of lucky bamboo in front of the door. In front of it is the Laohuang Tavern. It's easy to recognize! I have all those letters and bank account numbers in my book.
Under the bricks on the lower right, you can see it by pulling out the bricks."
Xia Zhaoyi then put away the dagger and said coldly: "Just pretend you have never been to our house."
"Yes, yes, I know, little one!"
Xia Zhaoyi and Shen Lie opened the door and left.
The attendant's legs weakened and he collapsed on the ground.
There was a corpse of a man in black lying at his feet, and the blood was all over the ground.
The receptionist became angrier as he thought about it, and kicked the body of the man in black hard.
I told you not to come, but you must come!
It's okay now, just risk your own life!
Thinking of the letter that the guard put in, the receptionist was really curious and wanted to read it, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it. One more thing is worse than one less thing.
Moreover, the other party knows his name and address. If he ruins their affairs, then he is really doomed.
After Xia Zhaoyi and Shen Lie left Jilu Pavilion, they went to the Xunji Hall.
There were many people in the Xunji Hall. Xia Zhaoyi and Shen Lie walked around slowly, and were respectfully stopped one after another to ask if the emperor had any orders, but Xia Zhaoyi dismissed them all with a few words.
In the end, Xia Zhaoyi couldn't find a good place to throw the key, so she left with Shen Lie.
In fact, as far as the current situation is concerned, Lu Mingfeng is almost finished, Nobuno adds fuel to the fire, and the key is the icing on the cake.
If you really can't find a good place, you don't have to add this flower.
They were able to go downstairs, and the bodies of the four guards at the west gate of Zhaixinglou were discovered.
Xia Zhaoyi didn't want to cause trouble, so she and Shen Lie walked northwest.
There is much less water here, and the palace lanterns shine dimly on the empty palace one by one.
They still went to a place with few people, but Xia Zhaoyi wanted to visit Yanguang Hall before leaving.
She chose a road that was neither near nor far away, bypassing the noisy palaces and gardens. As a result, she met the most noisy and noisy person in the harem.
