The investigation team from the Imperial Capital arrived very quickly...
In just over a month, after traveling tens of thousands of miles, they arrived at Beidicheng, where they were warmly received by Zhenbeigong Chen Longcheng.
I heard that the leader of the investigation team, Xiong Gang, was a general of the Imperial Guards, with unfathomable strength. He fought alongside Zhenbei Gong Chen Longcheng more than ten years ago.
Obviously, the imperial capital is much more serious this time...
Naturally, Chen Ying had no chance to meet Xiong Gang. Even the members of the investigation team were not the ones he could meet if he wanted to.
However, he was keenly aware that with the arrival of the investigation team, the atmosphere in Beidi City became a little tense.
It's easy to understand. No one can guarantee the true purpose of the investigation team coming from the imperial capital.
These have little to do with Chen Ying. Even if he wants to participate, he can't do it at the moment.
For now, he is still studying in the academy. When he reaches the age of fifteen, he can leave the house and walk.
As I get older, my strength becomes stronger day by day.
Obviously, because of some recent events, the princess's mind was elsewhere. Although she was a little surprised by Chen Ying's cultivation, which was about to reach the peak of her strength, she didn't take it too seriously.
Perhaps, it is also related to the fact that the second son Chen Wu’s Qi cultivation has penetrated the six extraordinary meridians and eight meridians.
Chen Ying was naturally happy and relaxed. She was absolutely transparent in the palace, never a thorn in her side, and determined not to attract the attention of the mistress of the palace.
In addition, there is a swaggering little fat guy next to him. This guy is much more flamboyant. Especially with his Zhenqi cultivation, he can penetrate a serious path in a month, which is quite fast and furious.
This guy still doesn't know how to restrain himself. He is so domineering in the academy that he often asks his classmates to "discuss" with him. His strength is clearly revealed. He is much more eye-catching than Chen Ying. At the same time, he blocks a lot of attention from Chen Ying.
When the investigation team from the imperial capital arrived in Beidi City, the attention of all the high-level officials in Beidi was attracted, and the mistress of the princess was no exception.
Chen Ying's performance is too mediocre...
Except for the little fat man and Zhao Ranruo, almost everyone ignored him.
As for the little fat man and Zhao Ranruo, it was because of Chen Xiong that every time the little fat man understood something serious, he would rush to Chen Ying for a discussion.
But every time, the result was a complete defeat within thirty moves!
Even though the little fat man's current cultivation level has penetrated the ten and twelve sects, he still can't do more than thirty moves in Chen Ying's hands.
At this time, even a fool knew that Chen Ying's cultivation level far surpassed that of the little fat man.
Even Zhao Ranruo was more serious about Chen Ying and wanted to find an opportunity to discuss and exchange ideas.
Last time he didn't go ten rounds in Chen Wu's hands, and he felt a shadow in his heart.
Recently, in addition to giving guidance to the little fat man, I have also been practicing very hard, and in a short period of time, I have opened up another eight extraordinary meridians.
It's a pity that his cultivation progress is still far behind Chen Wu, who has made rapid progress. I just don't know what he feels in his heart?
Naturally, Chen Ying would not fight Zhao Ranruo easily, nor would he give him a chance to invite a fight...
Right now, the hottest topic in the entire North is naturally the investigation team coming from the imperial capital.
The members of the investigation team were quite capable, and they quickly found the farmer who killed the former steward and servants of the Northern Prefecture.
It's just a pity that catching this guy just proved once again that the former Northern Governor was no joke. The farmer who was caught was forced to take risks. There's really nothing to say.
Because of the investigation team, not only Chen Longcheng, the Duke of Zhenbei, has always been in charge of Beidicheng, but Chen Wu, the second son of the Duke, did not go to the border army camp.
Chen Ying goes to the courtyard where her mistress lives on time every day to pay her respects, but she can also hear some very secret information about the investigation team.
At present, most of the information that the investigation team can collect is related to the corruption and bending of the law by the former Northern Governor. Obviously, this is not what the investigation team wants to know.
I heard that my second brother Chen Wu accidentally revealed that what the investigation team wanted to find most at the moment was the young man with a hatchet who directly hacked to death the former Northern Governor and hundreds of officials.
It's a pity that after the hatchet man sneaked into the snow-capped mountains that stretched thousands of miles, he never appeared again, which made the investigation team very depressed.
In fact, now, the purpose of the investigation team has completely changed...
It is not easy to find fault with Zhenbeigong, and there may be quite serious consequences.
It would be better to settle the matter of the former Northern Governor quickly, so as to avoid the obvious estrangement between the Emperor of Qi and Chen Longcheng, Duke of Zhenbei.
However, the face of the Da Qi Emperor and the imperial court had to be preserved, so they had to find a scapegoat to settle the previous conflicts.
Obviously, the young man with a hatchet who brutally killed the former Northern Governor was the best choice.
Not only did the investigation team think so, but so did Zhenbei Gong Chen Longcheng.
As far as Chen Ying knew, the cheap daddy had no intention of completely falling out with the Daqi Empire, but the initiative was now in his hands, which depended on the expressions of the investigation team, the Daqi Emperor, and the court.
As for the young hatchet man who was so powerful that he dared to kill the former Northland governor, the top management of the Northland did not like him very much.
The other party didn't know why, but he directly killed the former Northern Governor. He was extremely courageous. It could be said that he regarded the king's law as nothing.
This violated the taboo of the powerful class. Today, the young man with a hatchet can brazenly kill the former Northern Governor for some reasons.
If one day, due to other reasons, I feel that a certain powerful person in the North deserves to be killed, will I also kill him brazenly?
It can be said that the senior management of Beidi are quite dissatisfied with such 'unruly' people.
Due to various factors, the senior management of Beidi did not react at all to the investigation team's deliberate targeting of the hatchet youth, as if they did not know, and they acquiesced.
Having experienced the world of Red Mansions, and hearing news and rumors from time to time, Chen Ying could easily see the real situation clearly.
But, why did he have the absurd feeling that the investigation team and the Northland dignitaries were all villains, and that the young man with a hatchet hiding in the snowy mountains was a male pig's trotters?
Soon, he knew how powerful his feelings were...
In the next year, the pursuit and attacks in the snowy mountains were like a standard martial arts drama.
I don't know what happened, but just when the investigation team was about to give up, by chance, they got the whereabouts of the Hatchet youth.
The investigation team was overjoyed and did not even say hello to the Zhenbei government. The team leader Xiong Gang sent the strongest members of the team to go deep into the hinterland of the Snowy Mountains to hunt down the hatchet man.
Chen Ying spends most of his time at Beidi Academy every day, and the information he can know is really limited. The reason why he heard all this was revealed by Zhao Ranruo.
Don't forget, this guy is a direct descendant of the powerful Zhao family in the North, and he can know a lot of unknown information...
Perhaps, he just used this kind of thing to broaden the little fat man's horizons and familiarize him with the ways of the powerful.
It's really pitiful to say that although the little fat boy is taken care of by Aunt Zhao and his life in Zhenbei Gongfu is much better than that of Chen Ying, he can't change his status as a concubine.
In Zhenbei Gongfu, the resources available to the bastard are too few...
Because of the two outstanding legitimate sons, Chen Wen and Chen Wu, Chen Longcheng, the Duke of Zhenbei, didn't care at all about his concubines and concubines, as long as the mistress of the palace didn't go too far.
This is also the main reason why Chen Ying can only practice bodyguard and specialize in internal martial arts, and the little fat guy cannot practice the core true teachings of Zhenbeigong Mansion.
Without access to the core inheritance of the public house, there is no need to expect to broaden one's horizons in martial arts and other aspects.
Chen Ying could see that Zhao Ranruo only had two swords, but while teaching martial arts, he did not forget to help the little fat man broaden his horizons. He was indeed his uncle. Who would make such plans for you if not a relative?
Because of the martial arts competition, I know that Chen Ying's strength is very important, and the little fat man has been getting along well with him recently.
Whenever he had some free time, he would bring Chen Ying over to practice martial arts and improve together. Naturally, Chen Ying also heard the timely information provided by Zhao Ranruo.
Zhao Ranruo didn't pay much attention to this. According to him, the hatchet young man would definitely not end well...
The slap in the face came quickly, and within a few days he was embarrassed to reveal the news that all the masters of the investigation team who had gone deep into the hinterland of the Snowy Mountains had been wiped out.
However, he still vowed that the hatchet youth's strength has now been completely exposed, and the experts of the investigation team will never let him have another chance to turn around.
Chen Ying just smiled and said nothing more...
What happened next was just as Zhao Ranruo said. Xiong Gang, the leader of the investigation team, was furious after hearing the news. He once again sent a strong man headed by a deputy leader into the hinterland of the Snowy Mountains again, hoping to kill the hatchet young man in one fell swoop.
Kill.
Since the young man with a hatchet dared to resist, and even dared to kill all the members of the previously sent investigation team, he had naturally violated the laws of the Daqi Empire, and he would naturally be punished by shooting if he encountered them again.
With the strength of that young man with a hatchet, it may be difficult to achieve results in a short period of time...
Chen Ying is not interested in any of this. The most important thing for him right now is to find a reasonable way to achieve the inner martial arts level.
At this time, he was already fourteen years old, and his apparent cultivation had reached the peak of energy transformation. Even in the entire Northland, he was apparently the number one strongest player.
Of course, as Qi masters continue to emerge, displaying amazing strength and mysterious magical methods, to be honest, the level of internal boxing has dropped considerably.
The peak cultivation level of Huajin, which the mistress of the princess palace might have taken a high look at originally, failed to cause the slightest disturbance at this time, as if she didn't know about it at all.
For this reason, Li Ma, who was closest to her, was indignant and said that the third young master's strength was already quite good. If it were not for some unspeakable factors, the third young master would not be able to cultivate the internal strength of the past. The current method of cultivating zhenqi is probably not the same now.
He is no less powerful than Chen Wu, the second son, who is a genius...
