Li Danqing's arrival made everyone gathered in the Ying family mansion somewhat surprised.
Ying Xiangjun, who was presiding over the discussion, even stopped talking and looked sideways at Prince Li who was standing at the door of the mansion.
The Ying family's mansion was luxurious, and the meeting hall was very grand. Li Danqing, who was standing at the door, took a good look at it. At this moment, there were many familiar faces standing in the mansion.
There is no need to mention Ying Li beside Mr. Ying.
Ming Yu Tongchen, the young master of the Suppressing Demon Division who had encountered him in the Yaoxu Sword Sect, was also among them. He was obviously a representative sent by the Demon Suppressing Division.
You don’t need to think too much about the arrival of the Tianjian Division. They are naturally Xia Xianyin and Qingzhu. Their level of concern for this case is far beyond ordinary people. Whether it involves the Qinggui case or the safety of Ning Xiu and Xue Yun,
There was no reason for them to stay out of it.
But the one sent by Ti Yusi was an unfamiliar face, a burly middle-aged man with a purple gold hammer on his back.
Li Danqing vaguely remembered the other party's name - Du Hongwu!
He is one of the five young masters of Ti Yusi. He has cultivated a lot in his life and has entered the Divine River Realm. He can also be regarded as one of the young masters of Ti Yusi who has extremely rich qualifications and experience. There are even rumors in the market that this person is
Du Hongwu is very likely to succeed the current Chief Minister, and take over the Chief Minister's post after he retires and returns to his hometown.
This case is of course a big one.
However, although Ji Qi ordered the four ministerial offices and the Ying family to jointly handle the case, and set a seven-day period, the court paid attention to it, but everyone below had their own agendas.
The clues can be seen in the personnel sent from these three prefectures and nine divisions.
Although the officials sent by the Tianjian Division and the Demon-Suppressing Division are all senior officials at the level of young commanders, without exception, they are the most junior and youngest among their respective junior commanders. Their attitude towards this case is obviously wait-and-see or maybe
Negative…
The Shenhe Division went even further and temporarily recruited a non-staff member like Li Danqing to come and deal with it.
It was almost written on his face.
However, Ti Yusi seemed to attach great importance to it and sent the experienced Du Hongwu...
The Demon-Suppressing Division was on good terms with the Ying family, and they were both princelings. Obviously, they didn't want to involve too much in the past, so sending Yu Tongchen was just a formality.
The Shenhe Division and the Tianjian Division have never participated in the dispute between the crown prince and the second prince, or they have not yet decided who to bet on, so they sent Li Danqing and Xia Xianyin, more to wait and see.
Change. One of the two is a non-staff member, and the other is inextricably linked to the Green Ghost case. If he does something extraordinary, Ying Xiangjun cannot blame Qu Manxiu and Yin Wujiang.
As for Ti Yusi...
However, I heard that he has close contacts with the second prince, and I can't say that he really wants to find out something. If he can curb the Ying family's current situation, it will indeed be a serious blow to the princelings.
Wuyang City is such a place.
All forces are intertwined and have their own agendas.
No matter how simple a matter is, if it involves enough things, it will become extremely complicated under the mutual constraints of all parties. It is not easy to get rid of the cocoon.
Thinking about this, Li Danqing saluted everyone in the mansion and said: "Li Danqing was entrusted by Qu Si Ming to come to participate in the discussion on behalf of Shenhe Si."
"Shenhe Department sent you?" Ying Li frowned and looked at Li Danqing with an unkind expression.
"I'm afraid Qu Siming is confused. How can he be so ridiculous about such a big event?" Yu Tongchen on the side also sneered.
Li Danqing, who was standing at the door of the mansion, heard this and ignored the ridicule of the two men. He led Qu Weiyang and others who came with him and walked in. He found a place and sat down, minding his own business.
It was as if he didn't hear what these two people just said.
When the two saw this, their eyebrows suddenly became angry, but this time no words came out of their mouths.
Li Danqing took out the token Qu Manxiu gave him from his arms and slapped it heavily on the wooden table.
"Qu Siming said, seeing this token is like seeing him. Anyone who dares to say no will go to Shenhe Division to find him. He won't reward you two big mouths. From now on, he will give me the surname of Li Danqing.
!Especially the head of the Ying family, if you go, he said
At least five big mouths start!" Li Danqing said this.
Seeing the strange expressions of everyone who heard this, he shrank his neck again, looked at Ying Xiangjun in the first seat, licked his face and said: "Of course it was Qu Siming who said this, and it has nothing to do with me. The head of the Ying family knows everything.
You probably won’t be angry with me.”
Li Shizi, with the idea that if you let me take the blame, I will fan the flames and start a fire, he poured dirty water on Qu Manxiu's body. Qu Weiyang behind him heard this, and he didn't know what his psychology was, but he didn't
He was not angry, but instead had a faint smile on his lips.
Upon hearing this, Xiangjun Ying squinted his eyes and looked at Li Danqing for a while, then smiled faintly.
"Prince Li likes to joke. Since it is appointed by Commander Qu, then the Crown Prince should sit down." Ying Xiangjun said this.
Li Danqing didn't answer, but took back the token with a smile.
"I think you have read the dossier. If you have anything to say, just tell me." Ying Xiangjun did not take this seriously and continued.
Yu Tongchen stood up at this time and said: "The Suppressing Demon Division has begun to investigate the evil sects that have been active in seven or eight states and counties in recent years, including Tianqi County. Let's start with them and see if we can find any suspects.
Man, Shenhesi should also start from each sect to compare the identity of the deceased."
"My father is already doing it." Qu Weiyang, who was behind Li Danqing, bowed slightly and responded softly.
Du Hongwu also said in a low voice at this time: "Ti Yusi's assistant has also checked the body of the deceased. Except for the gunshot wound caused by the prisoner Longshan disciple, there are no other fatal injuries, and there are no other abnormalities in the body."
, there are not many clues it can provide.”
"Ti Yusi has sent people to Luxicheng to visit the surrounding villages and towns to see if there are any suspicious people."
Hearing this, Prime Minister Ying rubbed his temples in distress and said: "This happened hundreds of miles away from Wuyang City, and the ones who were kidnapped were the disciples of the Holy Mountain! This is a provocation to the imperial court.
!”
"His Majesty is extremely angry about this and has ordered us to find out the matter within seven days."
"I don't have a clue now, so I can only work hard to start from these aspects. Once you have any news, please let me know at any time."
This so-called discussion was almost the same as what Li Danqing imagined.
Although this case is sudden, it is not without traces. At least as Li Danqing said in the Shenhe Division, there may be clues in a few obvious places.
But at this moment, everyone is keeping this secret and not mentioning it. Instead, they are working on some details that are almost impossible to produce results, without any real intention to find out the case.
"The files on the sect in the Shenhe Division are piled up like a mountain. If you want to check them one by one, it cannot be completed in seven days."
"The files on the evil sects held by the Suppressing Demon Division are incomplete. Trying to find the evil sects related to this matter is tantamount to wishful thinking!"
"Master Ying is investigating the case like this. I'm afraid he won't be able to find out the suspect within the time specified by His Majesty, right?" At this moment, Xia Xianyin's voice suddenly sounded.
Obviously, she was not willing to watch Ying Xiangjun deal with the matter like this.
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Ying raised his eyebrows and looked at Xia Xianyin: "Then what does Xia Siming have to say?"
Xia Xianyin raised his head and looked directly at Ying Xiangjun's gloomy face and said: "Dossier."
"This case is inextricably linked to the Green Ghost Case of that year. The files of the Green Ghost Case are placed in the Tianzihao archives of the Tianjian Division. It requires the handwriting of the Ying Family Head and the Grand Master of our office to open it. The Ying Family Head
If you really want to get to the bottom of this case, please allow Xia Xianyin to read the files!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the mansion.
In the conversation just now, everyone deliberately avoided everything about the Green Ghost case, and the involvement and fear in it were naturally self-evident. They wanted to attribute the case to the evil sect or the three thieves and bandits, but at this moment this matter
Xia Xianyin's words made it clear, and the atmosphere in the scene suddenly solidified.
Ying Xiangjun narrowed his eyes and stretched out his hand to gently tap the table in front of him.
After a while, he asked: "What does Xia Siming mean? Do you think this case is related to the Green Ghost case?"
"Green ghost tattoos are not a scarce commodity. It is not difficult for you to find a painter on the street and get such a tattoo. Xia Siming must involve this case with the green ghost case. Is it for investigation or for investigation?
Do you have any other plans of your own?"
"I have to remind Xia Siming that the case of the Xia family's rebellion was personally concluded by His Majesty. Xia Siming should not act out of his own selfish ambitions and mislead others and himself!"
Ying Xiangjun's voice was low, and a chill surged out of his body at that time, permeating the mansion. Under that momentum, Xia Xianyin's face turned pale, her breathing at the tip of her nose gradually became heavier, and she clenched her fists
It was tight and seemed to be in great pain.
Mr. Ying Xiangjun has a high level of cultivation, and there are many rumors that he has reached the realm of Martial Lord.
The aura that can be exuded from the whole body is enough to disturb the minds of ordinary Xingluo realm warriors, and even severely injure them.
He was obviously using this to remind Xia Xianyin not to think about things he shouldn't think about.
"Of course the imperial court has concluded what happened to the Xia family leader back then. However, the Green Ghost Evil Sect has not yet been fully arrested. Now that the thief's body has similar tattoos, can't Xia Siming suspect that this matter is from the Green Ghost Evil Sect?
Is there ever a revolt?" Just when Xia Xianyin was unable to control herself under that aura, Li Danqing's voice suddenly came from the side.
Ying Xiangjun was stunned when he heard this, and turned his head to look at Li Danqing. The relaxation of his mind also made the pressure surrounding Xia Xianyin dissipate a lot, giving Xia Xianyin some chance to breathe.
"Prince Li, do you also think this matter is related to the Green Ghost Case?" Ying Xiangjun asked, squinting his eyes.
"We'll find out if there's anything to do with it."
"On the contrary, the head of the Ying family avoids taboos everywhere, and even threatens Xia Siming with the matter of the head of the Xia family, but I am a little bit curious about what the head of the Ying family is afraid of!?" Li Danqing also narrowed his eyes and looked at Prime Minister Ying and asked.
"It is true that the Xia family's case was settled by His Majesty, but Xia Siming's crime was also pardoned by His Majesty!"
"What? Is the head of the Ying family questioning His Majesty's decision now?"
Li Danqing's tit-for-tat rhetorical question made Ying Xiangjun stunned.
"Li Danqing! What nonsense are you talking about! My father is very loyal to the imperial court, how can he be provoked by just a few words!" Ying Li stood up and cursed at this time.
Yu Tongchen, who was wearing a pair of trousers with him, also stood up and said: "Prince Li, investigating the case is not child's play. If you don't understand the secrets, just watch carefully and don't help. If you cause trouble, you are deceiving the emperor."
Big crime!"
Facing the two people's attacks, Li Danqing sneered: "It seems that I didn't win the two of you a few days ago. Can we find an opportunity to discuss and learn from each other again?"
The expressions on the two people's faces froze when they heard this, and they were both a little ugly.
They had all fought against Li Danqing before. One had his leg broken by Li Danqing, and the other was beaten in the back and fled. At this moment, Li Shizi's old story was no longer brought up, and both of them looked a little worried.
"Okay, okay!" Just when the two sides were at war with each other, Du Hongwu, who looked tall and thick, stood up and said with a smile: "We are all here to share your Majesty's worries."
"This case is indeed complicated, and time is tight. I think we should investigate according to our own ideas and see who can get results. Then we can discuss further plans. For example, if Xia Siming can prove
This case is related to the Green Ghost Case of that year, so the head of the Ying family simply took out the file and took a look. It’s not a shameful thing anyway, it’s no big deal. Am I right? Head of the Ying family!” The arrogant man with a rough body was at that time
He looked at Ying Xiangjun with a smile, looking kind.
Ying Xiangjun stared at Du Hongwu with a gloomy look, knowing that this guy wanted to fan the flames and sit on the mountain to watch the fight between tigers, but at the moment, Ying Xiangjun had no intention of beating him. He just thought about it and nodded: "
good."
"It's a three-day period. If you can find out some clues and you want to read the file, then go ahead and read it."
Seeing Prime Minister Ying relaxed, Xia Xianyin's face lit up with joy.
"But!" But then Ying Xiangjun's voice sounded again.
"If you can't find out! I will punish Xia Siming for his incompetence, and you will resign from the post of Young Siming of the Tianjian Division. The imperial court does not support idle people!"
