Five years as county magistrate, hundreds of millions of kilograms of grain shocked Li Shimin Chapter 249 Mo Cailing reminded that Fang Yuan was threatened
Chapter 249 Mo Cailing reminded that Fang Yuan was threatened
The night is as dark as ink.
Around midnight, Mo Cailing arrived.
In the study, Mo Cailing was leaning lazily on the stool, as if she was very tired.
"When Pei was stabbed, was it done by your Deng Ling family's ink?"
Fang Yuan asked as soon as he entered the study room.
Mo Cailing was startled, all the laziness in her body disappeared, and she looked around cautiously, fearing that she would be ambushed.
"Look at it this way, is it really your Deng Ling clan's style?!"
Fang Yuan frowned and said in a deep voice.
Judging from Mo Cailing's reaction, it should be them.
"Is this why you called me here?"
Mo Cailing sat up straight and asked with twitching corners of her mouth.
She regretted coming and wanted to escape.
"Yes."
Fang Yuan sat down, sitting opposite Mo Cailing.
Looking at it, I found that Mo Cailing had dark circles under her eyes and her face looked tired.
"If I run away now, can I still escape?"
Mo Cailing looked in the direction of the door and said sarcastically.
There was no one there and it was pitch black, but Mo Cailing didn't dare to move.
She actually knows something about the situation in Fang Mansion, Du Miaoyan and Xue Bowu are two super masters.
There are also some guards, who are also quite strong. About ten or so of them can keep her here.
And there are many agencies.
"What do you think?"
Fang Yuan said with a half-smile.
He didn't arrange anyone to keep an eye on Mo Cailing.
But in Fang Mansion, it’s not that whoever wants to come in can come in, and whoever wants to come out can go out.
Recently, Juzi has developed a new type of weapon, which is almost invincible in close combat.
"I can't tell you."
Mo Cailing sighed and sat down as if she was wilting.
"Why?"
Fang Yuan frowned deeper.
"Impossible, I can't. There are so many reasons why."
"But if you use the favor I owe you, I can tell you."
Mo Cailing shook her head.
But in the end, she didn't say anything.
The reason why she dared to come to Fang Mansion so late was because she owed Fang Yuan a favor.
Deng Ling's Mo is the one who keeps his word the most, even now the whole city is looking for Pei Ji's murderer.
Now the main targets of the court's search are Bishamon believers and Jianghu Rangers, including Den Ling's ink.
"Tell me about it."
Fang Yuan pondered for a while before saying.
He was thinking, is it worth using this favor to solve the case?
Relatively speaking, it is more beneficial to Fang Yuan if Pei Ji is dead, and there is no need to solve the case for him.
But to think about it differently, Fang Yuan is not solving the case for anyone, but is responsible for his own position.
Moreover, the emperor's heavy punishments and heavy rewards are very interesting. If you solve the case, you can not only avoid heavy penalties, but also get heavy rewards.
"My master did it."
Mo Cailing struggled a little, and finally whispered.
"What's your master's name?"
Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes and turned cold.
Sure enough, it was Mo Cailing of the Deng Ling family who took action, and he was also Mo Cailing's master.
Mo Cailing's martial arts is already very powerful, so is her master even more powerful?
"Nie Yinniang!"
Mo Cailing spat out names one after another.
My body shivered uncontrollably.
He also looked around in panic, as if he was worried about being overheard.
"I think I've heard of this name."
Fang Yuan frowned slightly and said uncertainly.
A very familiar name, but I can't remember it right away.
"I really admire you. You have never heard of my master's name."
"The number one assassin in history, he has never failed in his thirty years of career."
"In the arena, if she dares to be second, no one dares to be first."
Mo Cailing looked at Fang Yuan as if he had seen a ghost.
Her master is known to everyone in the world.
Even the dignitaries of Chang'an City are afraid when they hear her master's name.
"It's her?!"
Fang Yuan couldn't help but take a breath of air-conditioning.
Nie Yinniang can be said to be a legendary figure.
A legend of the same era as Li Xiuning of the Detachment of Women.
Li Xiuning is a heroine in the army, and she is a female ranger in the world.
Both of them were legends of their time and were famous all over the world in their time.
Later, after Li Xiuning of the Detachment of Women died of illness, Nie Yinniang also announced her retirement.
Nowadays, we only occasionally hear about the people she assassinated, and they have almost faded out of people's sight.
The reason why Fang Yuan remembered it was because the last time someone assassinated him, he investigated the assassins in the world and read Nie Yinniang's introduction.
"Yes, that's her."
Mo Cailing nodded heavily.
"Since your master has never failed in his thirty years of debut."
"Then why was Prime Minister Pei only seriously injured but not dead this time?"
Fang Yuan expressed doubts about this.
"Listen to my master, it's the employer's request."
Mo Cailing explained.
"Who is the employer?"
Fang Yuan asked.
"I don't know, I don't dare to ask about my master's affairs."
"Also, don't even think about knowing my master's whereabouts from me, because I don't know either."
Mo Cailing knew Fang Yuan's intention.
A few words ended Fang Yuan's thoughts.
"Then you use this little information as a favor that you owe me?"
Fang Yuan pondered for a moment and said.
The information Mo Cailing disclosed was useful, but it was useless.
Because Nie Yinniang’s whereabouts are so elusive, no one knows where she is in recent years.
Even if we knew it was her, we couldn't catch her. There would be no way to solve the case, and the information would be of little use.
"Oh, I have sold my master. I am bullying my master and destroying my ancestors. What else do you want?"
Mo Cailing rolled her eyes at Fang Yuan and said disgustedly.
He revealed his master because he felt that he would not know about it and he was not around.
If the master is around, even if she is given ten courages, she will not dare to betray her master.
"It's true for you, but not for me."
Fang Yuan still wants to fight for it.
I always feel like it’s a waste to use up favors like this.
"Let's do this, I'll sell you another message."
"In half a year, or at the latest a year, there will be a rebellion in Chang'an City."
"You'd better not continue to be an orderer of Chang'an, otherwise you will be killed."
Mo Cailing pondered for a moment and said solemnly.
She betrayed her master tonight because she didn't want to be manipulated by Fang Yuan for favors in the future.
The Chang'an Order is a special position, responsible for the security issues of Chang'an City, and cannot be reserved during major events.
"You want to rebel?"
Fang Yuan's expression suddenly condensed and he said in a deep voice.
"Although our Deng Ling clan's ink is very strong, it is not strong enough to rebel."
"There's only so much to say. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. You won't stop me, right?"
Mo Cailing shook her head and said.
After saying that, he stood up and said he wanted to leave.
Fang Yuan looked at her, pondered for a moment, and waved his hand to let her leave.
She was left to be tortured or asked something, but the consequences were unpredictable.
It might anger her master and offend the number one assassin on the assassination list.
Moreover, Mo Cailing's status in the Deng Ling family is not low, and she is easily attacked.
The imperial court's salary is only a little, so there is no need to work hard for that salary.
"Farewell!"
Mo Cailing breathed a sigh of relief.
She screamed and ran out of the study.
I was relieved when I saw no one was hiding at the door.
Finally, Fang Yuan gave her a ride and sent her out the back door to leave.
Watching Mo Cailing leave, Fang Yuan sighed and stretched.
After so much effort, I looked for Zheng Guanyin and then Mo Cailing, but it was of no use in the end.
Tomorrow is the last day, and it looks like you will be severely punished. Go back to sleep peacefully.
Fang Yuan closed the door and prepared to go back to the house to sleep.
But as soon as I turned around, I heard someone knocking on the back door.
Is there something missing?
Fang Yuan thought to himself, thinking it was Mo Cailing and opened the door.
But after seeing the person coming, Fang Yuan's pupils suddenly shrank, full of disbelief.
"Does Fang Ling find it unbelievable?"
"Actually, I can't believe it. I can't believe that Fang Ling met Mo Cailing after meeting Zheng Guanyin."
The visitor said with a smile.
While talking, he walked into Fang Yuan's mansion.
She closed the door and looked around.
"Are you following me?!"
Fang Yuan was shocked, his eyes quickly turned cold.
The visitor is Liu Yichen, the granddaughter of the Minister of Justice, whom we met once today.
She actually knew that she had met Zheng Guanyin and Mo Cailing, and she showed up in such a timely manner.
This is not only stalking, but also as if a monitor is installed on oneself, which is creepy.
"Yes."
"It was an unintentional move, but I didn't expect such a big harvest."
"Don't look at it. I'm the only one. Do you want to kill me and silence me?"
Liu Yichen smiled mischievously.
Smile so hard that your eyes squint, as if there are stars in them.
"Is something wrong, Miss Liu?"
Fang Yuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
It’s scary, as if it’s being seen through.
It seems that Liu Zhenghui’s invitation tonight is not that simple.
Now let’s see how much Liu Yichen knows and whether he can clear up the relationship.
Naturally, it is impossible to kill Liu Yichen to silence her. It is impossible to kill her simply because she is the daughter of the Minister of Punishment, not to mention that she dares to come by herself.
"Yes."
"Why does Fang Ling want to find Zheng Guanyin?"
"Speak carefully, otherwise I may report it to Your Majesty."
Liu Yichen still said in a naughty tone.
She put her hands behind her back, stretched her body slightly forward, and looked at Fang Yuan with interest.
"Let's talk in the living room."
Fang Yuan did not answer and turned from passive to active.
He is thinking now, thinking about how much Liu Yichen knows.
Her appearance shocked Fang Yuan greatly, making him feel helpless.
Moreover, she also knew Mo Cailing, which shocked Fang Yuan greatly. He wondered how much she knew about Mo Cailing.
"Then we can talk while walking."
Liu Yichen is like a girl next door.
Follow Fang Yuan's side, walking happily.
She looked at Fang Yuan from time to time, urging Fang Yuan to answer her questions.
"Zheng Guanyin knew Mo Cailing, and Mo Cailing was a member of the Deng Ling family."
"I want to make sure whether Prime Minister Pei is the one who acted under Deng Ling's family, so that I can decide on a plan to investigate the case."
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
He was betting that Liu Yichen actually didn't know much and didn't dare to go to Zheng Guanyin for verification.
"I don't believe it!"
"Even if Zheng Guanyin knows Mo Cailing, he still can't let Mo Cailing come to Fang Mansion to find you in person."
Liu Yichen shook his head and said.
The smile faded, and his big eyes stared at Fang Yuan.
"I am the order of Chang'an. Mo Cailing came to Fang Mansion to find my safety. What's the problem?"
Fang Yuan ignored Liu Yichen's doubts.
He walked and talked while holding a lantern, and soon arrived at the living room.
Someone is keeping watch in the living room, so you can go down and prepare tea as soon as you see Fang Yuan arrive.
"Your explanation is reasonable."
"How did you know Zheng Guanyin?"
Liu Yichen thought for a while, smiled again, and continued to ask.
"This seems to have nothing to do with the case, right?"
Fang Yuan bets that Liu Yichen doesn't know that Zheng Guanyin is related to Bishamon.
"I'm curious!"
Liu Yichen asked.
"This is my private matter, I'm sorry I can't tell you."
Fang Yuan's expression remained unchanged, he shook his head and said.
"Okay."
"Then what information did you get from Mo Cailing?"
Liu Yichen lowered his head and thought for a moment, then looked at Fang Yuan and asked.
"I know a piece of information, but it's almost useless."
Fang Yuan sighed.
I also felt relieved.
We finally got around here, it should be safe.
"Tell me about it and I'll see if it's useful."
Liu Yichen became interested and asked further.
"It was Nie Yinniang who assassinated Prime Minister Pei."
Fang Yuan said slowly.
He was interrupted before he finished speaking.
"What?!"
"Nie Yinniang?!"
Liu Yichen stood up in surprise.
Staring at Fang Yuan with disbelief on his face.
"Yes, Mo Cailing said that."
"But she doesn't know who the employer is."
Fang Yuan nodded and said.
"Wrong!"
"Nie Yinniang is Mo Cailing's master. Why did Mo Cailing betray her master?"
"And Nie Yinniang has never failed in her thirty years of debut. If she really did it, how come Prime Minister Pei is still alive?"
Liu Yichen said.
Slowly recovered from the shock.
She has never met Nie Yinniang, but the Ministry of Punishment has her records.
A legendary figure like Princess Xiuning, once famous all over the world.
Such people have almost never taken action in recent years, but their actions will definitely not fail.
"From what Mo Cailing said, it's the employer's request."
"As for why she betrayed her master, I'm not sure. Can you confirm it by asking her?"
Fang Yuan looked at Liu Yichen and said solemnly.
"Check my voice?"
"Don't worry, I will ask her when I see her."
Liu Yichen frowned and sat back down.
Fang Yuan smiled and said nothing, and did not take the initiative to speak.
Facing such a terrifying Liu Yichen, I would not speak if I could.
"Since it was Nie Yinniang who took action, it is definitely impossible for us to catch her."
"But to some extent, can we find a scapegoat to solve the case?"
Liu Yichen murmured, and finally said with a bright look.
"Um?"
"What do you want to do?"
"What if Prime Minister Pei knows it's Nie Yinniang?"
Fang Yuan was stunned and found it difficult to accept Liu Yichen's leap of thought.
But after thinking about it seriously, it seems that it is not impossible. Finding a scapegoat to solve a case is nothing new.
But there is a drawback, that is, if Pei Ji is not dead and has met his assassin, then he will be betrayed.
"Prime Minister Pei's high fever persists, and it's hard to predict whether he will survive."
"If we find a scapegoat, we can not only avoid heavy penalties, but also get heavy rewards. This risk is worth trying!"
Liu Yichen pondered for a long time and gritted his teeth and said.
If the risk and reward are too different, you can try it.
With his father's merits, even if it was later pointed out that it was false, the punishment would not be very serious.
And it's just a possibility. Prime Minister Pei may not be able to survive, and he may not see the assassin.
"The reward belongs to your grandfather?"
Fang Yuan frowned and said.
"Yes!"
"Heavy punishment is yours!"
Liu Yichen nodded solemnly.
"Don't even think about it!"
Fang Yuan immediately refused.
"If you refuse, I will tell the emperor what happened tonight."
"And you also suffered a heavy punishment, don't you want to?"
Liu Yichen's brows were frivolous, and he looked like he was convinced of Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan didn't say anything, and looked at Liu Yichen, thinking about countermeasures.
