Chapter 117: Chapter 117: The Sealed Object Under Mulberry Lake

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: The Sealed Object Under Mulberry LakeNangong Qianrou took the paper and quickly glanced at it. The paper recorded the

discretionary analysis of the case by officials from the Ministry of Justice and the government office.

It was not of much value. He quickly glanced at it and his eyes condensed.

His face began to become serious and careful

The gunpowder that blew up the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple came from the

saltpeter mine in Dahuang Mountain... The small flag officer was silenced, and the Jinwu Guards secretly communicated with the demon clan... The whole context of the Sangpo case suddenly became clear.

Nangong Qianrou could not hide his surprise. He did not pay much attention to the case, but he also kept a certain amount of attention. For Xu Qi'an, the chief officer, he held the mentality of neither intervening nor helping.

According to Nangong Jinluo's experience, it would take three to five days to find out some clues about this matter.

Never expected that there would be such a harvest in just one day.

"It's a good material for handling the case." He narrowed his peach blossom eyes and finally had some affirmation of Xu Qi'an.

"Good material for the case?" Yang Yan's voice came from outside the carriage, and he seemed very interested. He asked, "Are you referring to Xu Qi'an?"

Yang Jinluo attached great importance to Xu Qi'an and thought he was a young man worth cultivating.

Nangong Qianrou snorted, "You are lucky to have picked up such a good seedling."

Yang Yan said "Hey", satisfied, and concentrated on driving.

Arriving at the night watchman's office and returning to the Haoqi Building, Wei Yuan said, "Let Xu Qi'an come to see me."

.....

Xu Qi'an was hiding in the case library to check the information. As No. 1 said, Emperor Wuzong did usurp the throne five hundred years ago.

In addition, the information of the royal family five hundred years ago, except for the founding emperor of Dafeng, was very vague. It should have been destroyed, leaving only the

name.

But one thing is certain, the one sealed in Sangbo is definitely not the unlucky emperor who was usurped by his cousin.

Because the emperor had an heir at the age of fourteen.

As we all know, before a warrior reaches the Qi Refining Stage, he will be hungry for fish. Well, it's not that he has no fish, it's just that the time has not come yet.

"Check for me, any master above the third rank five hundred years ago, and don't miss any." Xu Qi'an settled for the next best thing and checked the masters of the former royal family five hundred years ago.

"Yes!"

Seven or eight clerks took the order.

On the table by the window, a girl in a goose yellow dress supported her cheek with one hand and stuffed fried fish balls into her mouth with the other hand. Her legs swayed under the table, occasionally revealing her white embroidered boots.

"Miss Caiwei, I suddenly remembered something." Xu Qi'an went to take the fried fish balls, but the oval-faced beauty quickly slapped them away.

Xu Qi'an coughed: "Are fried fish balls delicious?"

"Delicious." Chu Caiwei nodded.

"I want to eat, but not this." Xu Qi'an said.

"What is that?" Chu Caiwei asked.

"I want to look at you infatuatedly." Xu Qi'an gave a warm smile.

Chu Caiwei's face turned red, and then her eyebrows were raised. She wanted to call him a lecher, but she felt that this sounded ambiguous, but it was different from the obscene words that lechers said.

For a moment, she didn't know whether she should be angry. If she didn't get angry, where would her dignity as a virgin be.

Xu Qi'an cleverly changed the subject and said, "I have something to ask Miss Caiwei."

Chu Caiwei swallowed the meatball in her mouth, her rosy little mouth was stained with oil, shining, pink and attractive, she frowned: "What is it."

"What method can be used to block the Sitianjian's Qi-watching technique?" Xu Qi'an asked. "High-level strongmen can restrain their own aura, but this is relative. I am a seventh-level Feng Shui master. The high-level warriors who can hide from my Qi-watching technique must be at least fifth-level. Sixth-level is not possible." Chu Caiwei said proudly.

I am at the eighth level of Qi training, so to be able to deceive my Qi-reading technique, Captain Zhou must be at the Copper Skin and Iron Bones level, and he is obviously not...Xu Qiyan nodded and continued to ask:

"Apart from that?"

"That's the magic weapon." Chu Caiwei is a teacher, and she explained without Xu Qiyan asking:

"There are two types of magic weapons in the world: one, the tools made by the array masters of our Sitianjian who record the array and refine it. The second is the magical items obtained

by chance.

"There are many types of the latter, such as the accumulation of thousands of years of ancient trees, and the remaining lightning-struck wood contains the most rigid and yang power.

"Another example is the items carried by high-level strongmen, which have been nurtured by the breath for many years and have some kind of magic. However, this kind is mostly an extension of a certain ability of that high-level strongman."

"Is there a magic weapon in the capital that can shield the breath?" Xu Qiyan got straight to

the point.

"We have some in the Sitianjian, but other places..." Chu Caiwei tilted her head and thought for a while: "I have to go back and ask Senior Brother Song."

"....Okay, then I'll leave this to you."

While the two were talking, the clerks had already listed the people who might have been high-grade warriors five hundred years ago.

The list was not long, only a dozen, all of whom were suspected to be high-grade warriors.

The official records would not specify what rank a certain person was, so the clerks inferred the rank through the deeds of generals who were qualified to be recorded in the official history five hundred years ago.

For example, the King of Zhenbei, who guarded the north for decades and experienced hundreds of battles in his life, there is no doubt that he must be a high-grade warrior.

Xu Qian'an glanced at it and was disappointed to find that the fourth-grade warriors were the most on the list, and there were very few third-grade warriors, no second-grade warriors, let alone first-grade warriors.

"To be sealed in Sangpo, the second rank is the bottom line. Otherwise, the first rank warlock can easily solve it. There is no need to seal it. Is my idea wrong? It is not a person who is

sealed, but an object?"

"Wait... Supervisor?!" Xu Qi'an's heart trembled, and his breathing became rapid.

He thought of one thing. The duty of the Supervisor is to sit in the capital and be the patron

saint of Dafeng. At least this generation of Supervisor is like this.

Then, when Wuzong wanted to usurp the throne, he must have been unable to avoid the

Supervisor.

A bold guess took shape in Xu Qi'an's mind, making him shudder.

"Caiwei, is our master the first generation Supervisor?" Xu Qi'an controlled himself and did

not let his voice tremble.

"No, Master is the second generation Supervisor." Chu Caiwei's answer made Xu Qi'an feel his

blood boiling.

I know who is sealed under Mulberry Lake... Xu Qian'an swallowed his saliva: "How did the first generation of the chief supervisor die?"

Chu Caiwei shook her head: "I don't know this, Master never talks about the past of the

master."

It was the first generation of the chief supervisor, the one sealed under Mulberry Lake was the

first generation of the chief supervisor!!

Xu Qian'an shuddered at this guess.

No wonder only Emperor Yuan Jing knew this secret, no wonder the chief supervisor got sick, no wonder the northern demon clan planned this good show.

If the first generation of the chief supervisor escaped, the capital would be in chaos... No, the

first generation of the chief supervisor has escaped.

At this moment, Xu Qian'an actually had the idea of escaping from the capital. "Escape, escape quickly... Take uncle and aunt with you... If the first generation of the chief supervisor escapes, it will definitely cause a bloody storm. That's the first rank, and the whole

capital will become a Shura field..."

Thinking of this, Xu Qian'an gave up the idea of escaping. S~eaʀᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Emperor Yuan Jing asked him to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence,

so Wei Yuan had the responsibility to watch over him as a death row prisoner. If he ran away,

it would implicate Wei Yuan.

Of course, this is not the most important thing.

Xu Qiyan can run away, but the people in the capital can't run away. If a decisive battle

between first-class masters really happened in the capital, how many people would die?

All human lives.

"The old bastard Emperor Yuan Jing is in the palace, guarded by many masters, but what about ordinary people in the city?"

"I can't intervene in the grievances between first-class masters... If you spread it out, there

will naturally be taller people to deal with it."

He made a decision immediately!

When you are in doubt, find Wei Yuan.

Although he is reluctant to admit it, Wei Yuan, a famous strategist, does give people a sense

of security.

If Wei Yuan is a mediocre officer, Xu Qiyan can only go to the Sitianjian to find the supervisor.

Just at this time, an official came in and saw Xu Qian'an, and was overjoyed: "I have been looking for Lord Xu for a while, and Lord Wei is looking for you."

What a coincidence, I also want to find him... Xu Qian'an said goodbye to Chu Caiwei and followed the official to the Haoqi Tower.

Entering the tallest building of this government office and coming to the seventh floor, Xu Qian'an saw Wei Yuan, who was dressed in blue and had white hair on his temples.

And two golden gongs.

"The case is progressing well, but unfortunately the clues are broken again. The court has

issued a wanted order for Zhou Chixiong, but it is unrealistic to find him within half a month.' Wei Yuan took a sip of tea and said in a gentle tone:

"What are you going to do next?"

Xu Qian'an stood in front of the case, thought for a while, and said frankly: "I guess there is a

black hand behind Zhou Chixiong, but there is no clue."

This case is more complicated and troublesome than the tax and silver case. Of course, it is also because he is not the main officer in the tax and silver case. He mainly needs to find loopholes and provide ideas, and the other aspects are done by the night watchmen and the

government office.

Although the clues were broken, Xu Qiyan had a general direction for the follow-up investigation: First, start from the magic weapon that blocks the qi-watching technique.

Second, there are channels that have the ability to smuggle gunpowder into Sangpo's list for investigation.

The second one is bound to be exhausting and may not produce any results. "Mr. Wei..." Xu Qiyan tried: "What if I still can't find out the truth after half a month?"

"By then, I will arrange for you to fake your death and get away, and you can go to the rivers

and lakes and be the secret line of the night watchman." Wei Yuan took a sip of tea and said: "The intelligence network of the government covers thirteen states and major rivers and lakes. It is impossible to do it without secretly raising spies.

"Your personality is not suitable for politics, and the rivers and lakes are your world. In fact, if

there was no Sangpo case, you would have left the capital under my arrangement."

Go to the rivers and lakes... Xu Qiyan thought in a trance.

"Being a knife in my hand, a knife that cannot see the light, do you feel wronged? "Wei Yuan

laughed, like a gentle and cheerful teacher:

"Your character is soft on the outside but strong on the inside, and a little extreme. I admire you for this, but I also don't like you for this.

"I know the many drawbacks of the night watchman's office, but human nature is like this,

light and darkness intertwined. How many people are like Li Yuchun? If the night watchmen

are all people like Li Yuchun, they will not be able to suppress the civil and military officials in the court." Xu Qian'an frowned: "I understand this truth, so human nature needs to be constantly beaten and deterred, so that the administration can be clean. Is Duke Wei too indulgent?"

"It depends on the timing." Wei Yuan did not get angry, and explained with a pleasant face: "The bureaucratic atmosphere of Dafeng is FuBài, and the decline is complete. If you want to change this atmosphere, you have to be in harmony with the light and then break it one by one. When there are no stumbling blocks in front of you, it is time for you to show your ambitions." Wei Yuan meant that when he defeats his political enemies in the future and there are no more

obstacles, he can free up his hands to rectify these foul atmospheres... Xu Qian'an thought about it and felt that it made sense.

"You are in the officialdom, bound by rules, and have to live in harmony with the world. Otherwise, you will only cause trouble again and again. Or, you will be worn out and lose the

arrogance of a warrior, which is not worth it no matter how you look at it. But once you enter the martial arts world, you will have no worries." Wei Yuan said earnestly: "Anyone who provokes you, blocks you, or is in your way, just use your knife to kill them,

follow your heart, and don't worry about rules and laws. This is what is called breaking the law with force.

"Many warriors lose their original intentions in the process and become cold-blooded and ruthless executioners. This is what you need to pay attention to."

Xu Qian'an held back for a long time: "I don't want to go to the martial arts world yet, I want

to try my best."

He is not nostalgic for power, but for his family. He misses his uncle and aunt, Erlang and his

sister.

This is like when he was a social animal in his previous life, the boss said: "I will send you to other provinces to expand the market and stay abroad for a long time. "

You said: I don't want to go. The boss said: No, you do.

Fortunately, Wei Yuan was not the kind of boss who would take advantage of others. He did

not force her. He smiled and said, "If you have nothing to do, you can leave."

No, I have something to do... Xu Qian'an clasped his fists and said in a deep voice, "Please ask

Mr. Wei to dismiss the people around. I have something important to report."

Are you going to dismiss us again?!

Nangong Qianrou and Yang Yan looked at Xu Qian'an expressionlessly.
