Gu Qingcheng paused for a moment, a smile slowly appeared on his handsome face, and he felt helpless.
"It seems that the prince has not only found out more about Yu Xicheng." Gu Qingcheng said.
Yu Xicheng's confession was actually divided into three sections, not two.
The first paragraph tells Ximen Jingxuan directly, the second paragraph is decided by Lin Xiner herself, and the third paragraph is about Yu Xicheng's true origin.
However, because Ximen Jingxuan became suspicious about the second paragraph, he turned the third paragraph upside down.
"What I told you just now..." Ximen Jingxuan tapped his fingers on the armrest. It seemed very light, but the low sound was very harsh to Gu Qingcheng's ears.
"Can the prince really do such an unsavory thing?" Gu Qingcheng asked.
"I have never called myself a gentleman. As long as it is beneficial to my purpose, I don't care whether I am in the mainstream or not." Ximen Jingxuan said nonchalantly.
In other words, he will definitely use means to threaten Gu Qingcheng.
In fact, he didn't find out much about King Xiao, but one thing was that he was sure that the person who fell off the cliff and died in the Sunset River was not the real King Xiao.
According to the palace records, after two days of fishing in the Sunset River, the body of King Xiao was finally recovered. According to the rapid flow rate of the Sunset River and the sediment conditions in the river, if the person was not washed to the shore midway and flowed along the river,
Two days later, the place where King Xiao was found after falling into the river should never be the location recorded in the file.
That location is a doubtful point for those who are familiar with the Sunset River Water Conservancy. It is just because the person who discovered it was proved to be King Xiao himself, so even if there is doubt, there is no way to explain it. After all, there are exceptions to everything.
However, Ximen Jingxuan will not recognize that exception. A person who is most promising to take over the Qingyuan Dynasty suddenly goes crazy and suddenly falls off a cliff. This is too abnormal in itself. If someone really takes action against King Xiao, all parties must come together.
efforts, perhaps including the Yuehua Kingdom.
The Yuehua Kingdom is good at disguise, which naturally also includes changing the appearance of the dead...
This is what Ximen Jingxuan only thought of. After all, in a short period of time and facing such a critical moment as the first day of the first lunar month, he had no time to care about a person who had been "dead" for many years.
Ximen Jingxuan originally wanted to bluff Gu Qingcheng, relying on his confident attitude, but Gu Qingcheng was really bluffed.
Although Gu Qingcheng was capable, he was not as cunning as Ximen Jingxuan. He revealed everything to Ximen Jingxuan with just one reaction.
"He is already an unconscious old man and will not have any influence on today's world at all. Why should the prince hold on to him?" Gu Qingcheng was helpless.
After more than twenty and nearly thirty years, due to Yu Xicheng's "revenge" and the Gu family's persistent investigation, he was still found out, trying to break the peace of a dead person.
King Xiao is not dead, he is still hiding somewhere. Ximen Jingxuan got this answer, but he did not show any surprise. In Gu Qingcheng's view, he had already grasped everything.
"Wei Chen only found out the whereabouts of King Xiao later. He didn't want an old man who had already stayed away from the world to face the noise of the world again. This was also Wei Chen's intention of letting Yu Xicheng go silently. He just wanted them to stay together as master and servant.
The rest of my life." Gu Qingcheng said.
"Then, you will obey my instructions. I promise not to touch Prince Xiao." Ximen Jingxuan did not give up threatening Gu Qingcheng, but his voice changed and he said, "No matter what my decision is, naturally it will not be ruined."
In the Qingyuan Dynasty, no matter who becomes the emperor, he will maintain the hard-won peace in the world. Isn't this enough to reassure you and give an explanation to your Gu family ancestors?"
Gu Qingcheng thought for a while, and finally raised her hand again, "I obey the order."
Seeing that Gu Qingcheng agreed, Ximen Jingxuan said nothing more. As for the details of King Xiao, he would inquire later.
People of all kinds continue to pour into the capital.
In order to strengthen the defense, Ximen Jingxuan deployed people from the martial arts training field to station at various city gates for investigation. The first was to reduce the number of problematic people from mixing in, and the second was to get a thorough understanding of the people present at this martial arts conference.
Of course, only those who were found on the surface were those who were hiding in the dark, waiting to show up at the last moment.
These people are often the key.
"There is no news about her yet." Huangfu Yan, who came out of the valley to inquire, rushed back and said.
They originally wanted to prepare in advance, but it turned out that they hadn't even decided whether the person they were waiting for would come. Seeing that the time for the martial arts competition was coming, there was no movement from the person they were waiting for.
"If she can leave without leaving a trace, she can also appear without leaving a trace." Lin Xiner believes that "she" has that ability.
"Are you sure she will come in person?" Huangfu Yanchong asked.
"Choosing to hold this martial arts conference on the same day as the new emperor ascends the throne is a carefully planned thing. This is an opportunity that many people have been waiting for for a long time. To prevent accidents, she will definitely participate in it personally." Lin Xiner was very sure.
If it weren't for such an appropriate time, she might not be so sure, but this time was too good to pass up. How could Xia Yubing, who had a deep hatred for the Ximen family, be willing to give up and witness the defeat of her enemies with her own eyes?
grand occasion?
However, is it advisable to repay revenge, play such a big game of chess, and take revenge at all costs?
Mrs. Lin is dead, just like the concubine is dead, the late emperor is also dead long ago, leaving behind a Ximen Jinglie who has been tortured and has no good life. Shouldn't the past grudges end? More than a dozen members of the Xia family have died.
Do we have to spend the whole world to compensate? Faced with the conceivable loss of life, can the Xia family bear this weight?
"Is there anything else I haven't found?" Huangfu Yanchong thought carefully when he saw Lin Xiner was so sure.
Even on the road, the movements of a group of people could not be completely silent, but he did not find anyone with special status coming from the direction of Yuehua Kingdom at all. If there were any, he would have to arrive first.
The group of envoys from the Yuehua Kingdom in the capital.
"Wait a little longer." Lin Xiner was not in a hurry.
News also came back from Ou Nan. Leng Qingxiu followed Chu and was robbed and killed on the way to the capital one day. The three major killers in the world all attacked together. Although Leng Qingxiu relied on poison to make the killer a little timid, she still could not escape the killer.
The cold arrow, even though Ou Nan and others were forced to show up to help, was still kidnapped by the killer.
Ou Nan asked people to pass the news to Ximen Jingxuan, and then led people to track down Leng Qingxiu's whereabouts.
To be able to hire three major killers in the world to work together, the master must have a strong background. If he takes action at this time, it cannot be ruled out that he is targeting Prince Xuan.
But there are almost no people who know that Prince Xuan needs Leng Qingxiu. Apart from Lin Xiner and the others, Ou Nan and Ou Bei are the most knowledgeable and do not know all the truth.
