In an inn in Beiyuan, Ling Zhengze looked at the spy across from him with anger on his face.
"I asked you to find someone. I haven't heard from you for many days. I made it clear that he is a third-grade judge. How difficult can this be?"
The spy looked aggrieved and said: "Mr. Wu, it is difficult to find a judge. In Xuanguo, no one dares to admit that he is a judge.
Let me tell you, you don’t have to find him, just go to Canglong Palace and explain the matter clearly, right?"
"That's nonsense! How can I make it clear? I went in and told them that Liang Jixiong died in my mansion. Is this made clear? Will I still survive?"
The spy remained silent, and Ling Zhengze also softened his tone.
He is in a very bad situation now, and it is not easy to find a loyal subordinate.
"Since he is the person of Xuan, we have to start with the envoy sent by Xuan Kingdom to Qiancheng Kingdom."
The spy shook his head and said, "I checked and found that among the envoys of the Xuan Kingdom, there is no one named Liu De'an."
"Why are you checking the name? That name is obviously fake! Can you tell me who is among the messengers?"
"How can we start talking about this? Counting the sailors, there are hundreds of messengers."
"Let's talk about the important things first!"
The spy took out a list of names: "The leader of the envoy is Princess Yuyao of the Xuan Kingdom, who also serves as the internal history officer. It is said that she is a fifth-level cultivator of Canglong Ba Dao. Because her cultivation level has exceeded the limit, she is now serving as a palace captain in Canglong Palace."
"Princess?"
At that time, Liu De'an looked tall and strong, with a full beard, so he should be a man, but the possibility of a woman disguised as a man could not be ruled out.
The spy went on to talk about the next person: "Xu Zhiqiong, Marquis of Yun, is the director of the imperial city and the director of the Yamen Thousand Households. He has a fifth-level cultivation of killing. This person is well-known in Xuanguo. He is a ruthless person who is decisive in killing. "
Decisiveness in killing is a common characteristic of judges. He may be Liu De'an.
"General Yu Shan of Wuwei Camp, the son of the Minister of Punishment, made outstanding achievements in the war with Tunu!"
This person has heard that a master who leads troops in battle has the qualities of a judge. He may also be Liu De'an.
"Pharmacist Tong Qingqiu, a cultivator of the fifth level of Yin and Yang."
Liu De'an knows Yin Yang magic, it may be him.
The spy named a dozen key figures in total, and Ling Zhengze felt that every one of them was possible.
Unable to figure it out for a while, he prepared to check them one by one.
…
Xu Zhiqiong decided to go to Fanxiao Kingdom. He ordered Han Di to pack his bags, and he went to the bedroom to check on the condition of the Empress Dowager Chai Qiuci.
Chai Qiuci recovered well, but she was anxious to see Emperor Chang Le and didn't want to wait any longer.
Mei Ling trapped him with an ecstasy formation and reminded Xu Zhiqiong: "If we don't restrict her and let her run wild, she will be afraid of attracting powerful enemies."
The powerful enemy that Mei Ling mentioned refers to the stars of the underworld.
"She is just a clone. If she were not the real person, Mingdao might not be eager to take action."
Mei Ling shook her head and said: "Miss Jiang's clone has flesh and blood, soul and soul, and a part of my soul. The underworld may not let her go."
"What is Miss Jiang's identity?"
Ling Han smiled: "If she didn't tell you, I wouldn't be able to tell you clearly."
Xu Zhiqiong did not ask further questions. He was just thinking about how to arrange for the mother and son to meet, when he suddenly heard an old servant coming to report: "Master Marquis, a drink seller is looking for you."
Chen Bingbi is here.
"Please!"
Xu Zhiqiong invited Chen Bingbi to the main hall. After having two cups of tea, Chen Shuncai said: "I'm here because of Liang Yushen's affairs. Marquis Yun, after knowing each other for so many days, you must know that this person is extraordinary, right?"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said: "This person is a bit domineering."
Chen Shuncai nodded: "Marquis Yun is very accurate in judging people. This person is indeed domineering, especially after he became the crown prince. Except for the late emperor who was very afraid of him, everyone inside and outside the palace looked down on him.
He beat a minister in the street, insulted the daughter of an important minister, and beat a palace servant to death. At that time, I already had a fifth-level cultivation, and I had to take a detour when I saw him."
Well……
The Liang Yushen in Chen Shuncai's mouth is different from the Liang Yushen that Xu Zhiqiong knew.
Everything Liang Yushen currently does is within the framework of rules, and the Liang Yushen he talks about has no concept of rules at all.
"What position did Bingbi hold at that time?"
"I just joined the Bureau of Ceremonies and served as the head of the department."
The position of director was not high, and he was only a middle-level person in the department of etiquette. Maybe Chen Shuncai didn't know Liang Yushen very well at that time.
It is also possible that Liang Yushen's temperament has changed as he grows older.
Chen Shuncai revealed another secret: "After Liang Yushen went to Fanxiao Kingdom, because he had a grudge against Queen Chai Qiuci, he spread rumors many times, saying that Queen Chai had an affair with a minister and that the crown prince Liang Yuyang had an unhealthy bloodline.
Many ministers in the court once suspected that the fact that the prince was not favored by Emperor Zhaoxing was related to this matter. I even suspected that the fact that the queen was harmed by the late emperor was also related to this matter."
Xu Zhiqiong suddenly realized, he understood why Emperor Changle hated Liang Yushen so much.
Chen Shuncai continued: "I have been monitoring Liang Yushen in the Canglong Palace for several days. His temperament is more restrained than before, but his cultivation is not as good as before.
The Marquis of Luck must not be taken lightly, this person has a bad character and is incomparable to other people, so be on guard."
Xu Zhiqiong looked worried: "I'm going to Fanxiao Kingdom, and I'm worried about this matter."
Chen Shuncai said: "I shouldn't interfere in the affairs of the mortal world, but Liang Yushen should be above the mortal world. If he breaks the rules and takes action against the emperor, I will never stand by and watch."
…
Xu Zhiqiong is not worried about Liang Yushen taking action directly. In the realm of Daxuan, if he only has a second-grade cultivation level, he will never be able to touch Emperor Changle.
Even if his cultivation level is above the second level, if the commotion becomes too big, some people will deal with him.
What Xu Zhiqiong is really worried about is that he is behind the scenes. It has to be said that Liang Yuyang's character is not comparable to his.
What worries Xu Zhiqiong even more is that Liang Yushen's target may not be Liang Yuyang. What his target is is still unclear at the moment.
After packing his luggage, Xu Zhiqiong opened the map and looked at the unfamiliar Fanxiao Kingdom.
The first stop is Snow Wing County where the White Falcon tribe lives. Ling Zhengze must be found first. No matter whether the second brother died in his hands or not, he is the most critical link in the clues.
Xu Zhiqiong was still studying the map, and when the old servant came to report, Liang Yushen came again.
Xu Zhiqiong said with an indifferent expression: "Let's just say I'm not in the house."
The old servant returned immediately after leaving: "Master Marquis, he said he knew you were in the house, and he just wanted to give you two words of advice. He said these two words will do no harm to you."
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment and nodded: "That's fine, I'll go meet him."
Xu Zhiqiong didn't really want to listen to his two instructions, but wanted to test his weakness.
I heard that there is only one person in the world who scares you. Today, I want to see if you are still afraid of him.
He took out the bad puppet.
"King Ugly, it's rare that you have a chance to work."
Xu Zhiqiong greeted him outside the door. When they met, Liang Yushen first apologized: "In the palace before, Liang said something without considering it, but he implicated Marquis Yun. It was really an unintentional mistake. I hope Marquis Yun will not be guilty.
"
Xu Zhiqiong was surprised when he heard this: "What is the first palace officer referring to? Why can't Xu understand it?"
Liang Yushen nodded and said: "Liang is impressed by the magnanimity of Marquis Yun. Since he doesn't want to mention this matter, he forgives Liang."
"The words of the First Palace Lieutenant made Xu even more confused. It was inconvenient to meet him just now because a guest came to the humble residence. The guest had a special personality and was afraid of conflict with the First Palace Lieutenant."
Liang Yushen stepped back two steps after hearing this: "Since there are guests in the house, I will wait outside the door."
Xu Zhiqiong waved his hands repeatedly: "How dare you wait for so long? I have already discussed it with my friend, and he also wants to see you."
"Is there such a fate?" Liang Yushen looked surprised and followed Xu Zhiqiong into the mansion.
This guy is really brave. He knew that Xu Zhiqiong was on guard, but he still dared to enter.
When they arrived at the main hall, the bad puppet sat in the guest of honour's seat, silently watching Liang Yushen.
Liang Yushen looked at the bad puppet for a moment, but didn't seem to recognize his identity.
The appearance of the bad puppet is biased toward Hong Juncheng, who is younger than Hong Juncheng. It is reasonable that Liang Yushen cannot recognize him.
After looking at each other, Liang Yushen saluted first: "Dare you ask me about your dignity?"
The bad puppet didn't answer or get up, and still stared at Liang Yushen.
Liang Yushen asked in surprise: "Does this person recognize Liang?"
The bad puppet is silent.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Liang Yushen looked at Xu Zhiqiong.
Xu Zhiqiong didn't answer either, and let both parties continue to be embarrassed.
Seeing this, Liang Yushen had no choice but to look at the bad puppet again.
The bad puppet suddenly stood up and said: "Everyone, take your leave."
Seeing the puppet leave, Liang Yushen sighed: "This brother's temperament is really special. I seem to have seen him somewhere."
Xu Zhiqiong did not respond.
Did you really just see it?
Don't you feel scared?
Liang Yushen turned to the main topic, and there was only one thing he wanted to advise:
"My old friend in the Fanxiao Kingdom has found out the whereabouts of Elder Shengwei. The elder once traveled to the Clouded Leopard, Green Fox, Blood Wolf, and Huanying tribes. After reaching the White Falcon, there was no news again. This matter has been confirmed.
, but I don’t know whether I should report it to the emperor.”
"Of course I have to report it! This clue is so crucial, but the emperor should know it!"
"But if we report it truthfully, we are afraid of causing discord between the two countries and being suspected of interfering in political affairs."
Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said: "This is wrong. It is the duty of Canglong Palace to investigate the whereabouts of Elder Shengwei. But why should you worry about doing your duty?"
Liang Yushen nodded and said: "Thank you, Marquis Yun, for your advice. The mountains are high and the road is long. Marquis Yun must be careful along the way."
Liang Yushen left, and Xu Zhiqiong recalled the bad puppet: "I asked you to test Liang Yushen's weakness, why didn't you say a word?"
The bad puppet replied: "What should be tested has been tested. This person is not Liang Yushen."
Xu Zhiqiong said in surprise: "How dare you say that he is not Liang Yushen without even asking?"
"Liang Yushen will never dare to look me in the eyes!"
"He doesn't recognize you at all, so why doesn't he dare to look at you directly?"
"No matter whether he can recognize me or not, as long as I look at him, he will never dare to look at me twice."
The corners of Xu Zhiqiong's eyes trembled: "This is you trying to make things mysterious."
The puppet smiled bitterly and said: "Now that I have nothing and am suffering day and night, how can I have the guts to deceive you?"
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment and looked in the direction of Canglong Palace.
No matter who this person is, Emperor Changle must exercise restraint during the days I leave and not attack him easily.
I'm afraid my two words of advice will be of no use, and Emperor Changle will definitely not be able to withstand his provocation.
