Volume 4: The Case of Dust in the Mirror Chapter 109: The Green Hills Covered
Silence, deathly silence, there was no sound in the entire Imperial City Pavilion.
Qingshan's heart was trembling. He really wanted to ask Duan Ming, was he a fool? Is there any reason to ask this?
After an unknown amount of time, Master Chi Yuan exhaled a long breath and said to Duan Ming: "No. Not at all."
"Oh, that's good." Duan Ming nodded, turned around and shouted again: "Is the waiter dead? Hurry up and pack it up!"
"Hey, hey, here we come!" A waiter ran up with his body trembling, looking like he was about to cry.
Could he, a waiter in a shop, hear such a big thing just now?
"I said, Lao Chi, it's better if it's not you." Duan Ming picked up another piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
The various exquisite dishes made by Huangcheng Pavilion are just like kebabs in front of Duan Ming's eyes. They only need to be stuffed.
If outsiders saw it, they would definitely sigh: "A cow chewing peonies is a waste of natural resources!"
However, Duan Ming doesn't care, the master of Chi Yuan doesn't care, Qingshan doesn't care, and even the remaining Changsheng cult members don't care.
After all, Duan Ming's three consecutive questions just now were so direct that it made people unable to recover.
"Haha, what Mr. Duan said is interesting." The expression on Palace Master Chi Yuan's face did not change at all, and he said, "How could it be related to me?"
"Well, so I said it's great. Now many people outside are saying that it was your handiwork, Lao Chi. Even I myself had guessed that it had something to do with you." Duan Ming said, "It's just us.
The relationship between the two of us would be difficult to handle if it was really you. But since you say it’s not, it’ll be easier to handle.”
"What's so difficult to handle?" Qingshan rubbed his forehead, confused by Duan Ming's words.
"Hey, it's easy to handle." Duan Ming said: "Lao Chi, don't worry, I will never let you take the blame. Just leave it to me."
"Ah, thank you very much, Mr. Duan." Palace Master Chi Yuan said.
"You're welcome, just for the two houses you gave me and the meal you gave me, I can't let you suffer this unjust injustice!" Duan Ming patted his chest and accidentally swallowed the food in his mouth.
The flesh shook out and fell directly in front of the Lord Chi Yuan.
"Haha, thank you, thank you so much!" Palace Master Chi Yuan calmly stepped back a little, staring at Duan Ming closely.
At this moment, a member of the Changsheng Cult walked up quickly and said something in the ear of Master Chiyuan.
Palace Master Chi Yuan's eyes flickered, and then he said with a smile: "Since the princess is here, please invite her to come up."
The longevity cultist nodded, went downstairs again, and then came up with Li Waner.
After seeing Master Chi Yuan, Li Waner made a slight blessing to Master Chi Yuan, and then looked at Duan Ming: "Mr. Duan, the Queen wants to see you."
"Ah? You want to treat me to dinner too? I can't eat anymore," Duan Ming said.
"..." The corner of Li Waner's mouth twitched slightly. Could it be that Master Chi Yuan poisoned Duan Ming's rice? Why does he look like a fool?
But after shaking her head, Li Waner looked at Palace Master Chi Yuan: "Palace Master, the Queen has summoned Mr. Duan, there is no need to delay..."
"Please..." Palace Master Chi Yuan said hurriedly: "The Queen's matter is very important, so it's not too late to change the situation and entertain Mr. Duan again."
"Thank you so much, Master Chi Yuan." Li Waner made a blessing and pulled Duan Ming up.
"Lao Chi, don't worry, I'll leave it to me to prove your innocence!" Duan Ming picked up the box in front of Palace Master Chi Yuan, then looked at the waiter on the side: "It's packed, remember to help me first
Send it to Jing'an Prince's Mansion! I want to eat it tonight."
"Ah, ah..." The waiter nodded repeatedly.
Palace Master Chi Yuan forced a smile on his face and said to Duan Ming: "Then there is Mr. Lao Duan."
"Hey, I'll leave first then. Goodbye, Lao Chi, Lao Qing!" Duan Ming said and went downstairs with Li Waner.
After Duan Ming and the others left, the waiter hurriedly packed up the things on the table and hurried downstairs. There were only people from the Changsheng Cult on the entire fourth floor.
"Palace Master." Qingshan looked at Palace Master Chi Yuan and frowned.
"Duan Ming is as difficult as ever." Palace Master Chi Yuan clenched his fists and said in a deep voice.
"I beg your pardon for my subordinate's stupidity, what happened just now?" Qingshan said: "We are not here for...why do we seem to be begging Duan to solve the case quickly?"
"We have fallen into his rhythm again." Palace Master Chi Yuan took a deep breath: "When it comes to pretending to be crazy and acting stupid, some people will become really stupid, and some people will make the other party stupid.
"
"Then let's just let him go?" Qingshan's face was a little unwilling. Even Qingshan felt a little distressed by today's banquet.
"Otherwise?" Palace Master Chi Yuan sighed: "His three questions seemed stupid, but in fact they pushed me to the extreme. What else can I say besides denying it?"
"Since I have denied it, I have no reason to stop him from continuing to solve the case."
"As for whether it is true as he said, many people suspect that I am the one who did it. That is not important. What is important is that as long as one person suspects it, he can continue to investigate the case by clearing my name."
"And the Immortal Cult must not do anything to interfere with his investigation. After all, in this way, he is doing something for me. If the Immortal Cult blocks it, it means that there is indeed something wrong with me."
"Everyone in the world can doubt me, it doesn't matter, but His Majesty cannot be allowed to doubt me! Therefore, this loophole must not be left."
"Has this person actually considered this level just now?" Qingshan looked at the stairs in shock: "Will he really be able to... Hall Master, do you want to find someone to make him..."
"No, you can't do anything!" Palace Master Chi Yuan took a deep breath: "Since he has been summoned by the queen, it means that the fact that he is investigating the case has been spread to the palace. Once he dies now, then
This proves that there is indeed something wrong with Xing Qianqiu’s case.”
"At that time, the emperor will definitely release Xing Qianqiu and conduct an investigation. The consequences..." Palace Master Chi Yuan shook his head: "Besides, Xing Qianqiu is not easy to deal with. If you miss this time, you will want to put Xing Qianqiu away again."
Death is almost impossible."
"Alas..." Qingshan sighed after hearing what Master Chi Yuan said.
How come the original Hongmen Banquet seemed to be just for me without even realizing it?
Not only did we lose a banquet, a house, but we also lost so much initiative.
"But don't worry too much. This thing was done cleverly. No matter how smart Duan Ming is, he can't break it!" Palace Master Chi Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Besides, I want to protect myself wisely, but I also want to take advantage of both sides.
, How can there be such a good thing in the world!"
