"Boss Hu, this prince and you hit it off like old friends at first sight, and I said something from my heart. Don't take it to heart."
After Huangfu complained, he changed his tone and clinked the wine glass in his hand with Li Mu. On the surface, he said that he wanted to make a sincere friendship with Li Mu, but how could Li Mu not understand the connotation?
If Li Mu shows any doubt or hesitation, then the eldest prince may no longer be as harmonious as he is now.
"Haha, yes, I also met the eldest prince late. Don't worry, if you need any help and support from our Jinfuxuan, just tell me. Of course, this is also the intention of our eldest prince. After all, this is
For many years, we have not cooperated closely with the imperial royal family. This incident is your opportunity, and it is also our opportunity. When the time comes, I hope you, the eldest prince..."
Li Mu's wine glass collided with Huangfu Zhantian's, and a smile gradually climbed onto the face of the eldest prince. This was the ending he wanted. If it weren't for Li Mu's existence, maybe if the hero and Ruolan were really
He would use this opportunity to participate in the power struggle in the Cangyun Empire, but now, Huangfu Zhantian's plan to win over can only be to make a wedding dress for Li Mu.
"Guanshi Hu, please rest assured that I, Huangfu Zhantian, will remember every friend, and the Cangyun Empire will definitely repay your efforts."
The two of them smiled even more intensely, but only God knows how much true feelings there were, but for Li Mu, this was the best time to find out the news.
"Your Highness, when it comes to Li Yubai's incident, it's really unbelievable. Why on earth did he, a city lord, want to assassinate Prime Minister Zhuge? According to the logic of our businessmen, this is simply a loss-making business. The good city lord of Qinglan City doesn't
Yes, now he is a wanted criminal, so why bother."
Li Mu talked a few words with Huangfu Zhantian about the direction of future cooperation, and then naturally brought the topic to Li Yubai's assassination. As a chamber of commerce, it is understandable to pay attention to such an event that may affect the development of the empire.
Therefore, it did not arouse Huangfu Zhantian's suspicion.
"Haha, some people are always self-righteous and want to be heroes without recognizing their abilities. In the end, they harm themselves and their families. Haha, let's not talk about this. Hu Guanshi, do you think you can arrange a time for me and Ruo
Meeting with the shopkeeper."
Although Huangfu Zhantian only made an understatement and did not reveal any details about the Li Yubai incident, in Li Mu's opinion, it was already a huge gain. Huangfu Zhantian clearly knew the inside story, and this incident shocked the entire empire.
There is indeed something fishy about the assassination incident.
"This guy really knows something. Maybe this whole thing was planned by the royal family? To destroy the peace talks advocated by Yunlan Sect? I can't make a conclusion yet, but this Huangfu Zhantian must be a key figure. I have to continue with him.
If we build a good relationship, maybe we can find out the truth about my father from him."
Li Mu's mind was spinning with thoughts. He was now 90% sure that Li Yubai's assassination of Zhuge Jin was not as simple as it seemed, and that the royal family, at least Huangfu Zhantian, must be involved.
It would have been impossible to overturn the case for Li Yubai. Now the only way to find out more clues is to get closer to the eldest prince.
"If you want to get closer, you can only give him a taste of the sweetness, but Huangfu Zhantian probably doesn't like ordinary methods. I'm not good at this, so I still have to go back and discuss with Qingzhu and the others first."
After making the decision, Li Mu no longer deliberately asked for more details, so as not to alert the enemy. After drinking another glass of wine with Huangfu Zhantian, he pretended to be too drunk and left the house early. The eldest prince did not say too much.
After all, the two of them have expressed their opinions and said what they need to say.
"Brother Mu, what did the eldest prince say to you later? I think you seemed quite happy."
Li Mu and Lin Qingzhu didn't speak during the whole journey, in order to avoid anyone following them and discovering their identities. It wasn't until they returned to Jinfuxuan's branch that they sat in the room and began to exchange what they had obtained tonight.
information.
"Because I can almost confirm that my father has been wronged. Huangfu Zhantian is also a decisive person. He wanted to recruit me on the spot. To be precise, he recruited Jin Fuxuan. His ambitions are huge. Now the eldest prince
His identity no longer satisfies him, and the most important thing to us is that even if he was not involved in my father’s assassination, he definitely knew the inside story.”
This unexpected dinner greatly accelerated the progress of Li Mu's investigation of clues. In the middle of the night, with the help of the Shadow Cloak, the two quietly left Jin Fuxuan's branch and soon returned to the Liu family.
On the small island, it was already Yinshi, but Liu Long and Fang Yan were still waiting for their return in the yard.
As Li Mu and Lin Qingzhu took off their shadow cloaks and revealed their figures, Liu Long and the others finally felt relieved. No one knew whether Huangfu Zhantian's dinner was the Hongmen Banquet. As companions who had lived together through life and death.
, it’s natural to worry.
"Really? Is this Huangfu Zhan Tian so audacious? Dare he insult Yun Li'er like this? Is he risking his life?"
Li Mu also said exactly what Huangfu Zhantian said to him that night, which immediately frightened Liu Long who was familiar with the power structure of the empire. You must know that Yunlan Sect has been the emperor of Cangyun Empire for thousands of years, and they
The leader is the real master of this huge empire. He, Huangfu Zhantian, is just a prince. For him to say such words, it can only be said that unknowingly, the Yunlan Sect's dominance has dropped to an astonishing level.
"But it's right to think about it. I haven't heard of anyone from the Yunlan Sect taking action in the past hundred years. Now most of their disciples who have entered the world are only in the Transformation Infant Realm. Yun Li'er has just taken over as the leader. Although his talent is reversed,
God, but he is too young, and his cultivation level is only at the Infinite Realm. With such strength on paper, it is impossible to suppress the Huangfu family as before, unless there are a few retreating elders who have transcended tribulations or even ascended the realm.
Maybe the Cangyun Empire really wants to change its surname."
After being surprised, Liu Long analyzed the current situation carefully and began to understand why Huangfu Zhantian dared to be so fearless. It was said that the royal family had also recruited a group of powerful monks over the years, leaving aside the Immortal Cultivation Sect that had already lined up.
Mention, just the four major ministers of the royal family are all at the beginning of the Tribulation Realm. They really don't necessarily take Yun Li'er seriously.
"Brother Liu, Fang Yan, let's go to Tianxiu Mountain. I always feel that there will be clues left there."
Li Mu finally proposed to go to the crime scene. This was an intuitive guidance. Even he himself could not explain the reason. However, Liu Long and Fang Yan completely trusted his arrangement, and the three of them took advantage of the opportunity.
Before dawn, I jumped out of Liujia Island again and headed straight to Tianxiu Mountain in the north of the imperial capital.
