Chapter 161



161 Question and answer (for the Alliance master “brother peiqian”) _1

“This little bastard is getting more and more daring.” Jiang Luzhong let out a breath of turbid air and said ‘resentfully’.

“I don’t have the guts to kill a superior?” The sword-wielding golden gong laughed.

“It’s a pity that Yang Yan got lucky. You don’t know, that kid’s aptitude is …”

Wei Yuan looked at Jiang Luzhong and interrupted, “”You’re such a busybody.”

Jiang Luzhong immediately shut up.

The sword-wielding Jin Luo raised his eyebrows and asked, “”How’s his aptitude? what’s his rating? a?”

Jiang Luzhong deliberately laughed but didn’t answer. He had an expression that said ‘you’re too naive’ as he fished maliciously.

Not a? Could it be an A +? The sword-wielding Jin Gong turned around and stared at Wei Yuan. “Duke of Wei?”

If it’s a class A talent, you don’t have to hide it from me … Could it really be an A +? That was impossible, there had not been an a-grade aptitude for decades … However, their attitude had proven this point …

Wei Yuan sipped his tea and remained silent.

This attitude made Jin Luo even more curious, and he began to make associations.

If it’s a class A talent, you don’t have to hide it from me … Could it really be an A +? That was impossible, there had not been an a-grade aptitude for decades … However, their attitude had proven this point … If that’s the case, I have no reason not to fight for copper Gong Xu Qi ‘an.

Judging from Lord Wei’s intention, he was probably hiding it to avoid disputes between the Golden gongs over snatching people … Well, I can plan in secret and win him over. What young people valued were money and women.

The expressionless Yang Yan took the initiative to change the topic. “Foster father, what’s His Majesty’s attitude?”

Wei Yuan rubbed his forehead and sighed, ” find Heng Hui’s whereabouts as soon as possible. During the investigation, even I can’t handle a large number of impeachments.

The four golden gongs revealed a serious expression. Duke Wei was forced to say these words, which meant that the situation was very serious.

It seemed normal. Wei Yuan was a eunuch who was in charge of the night watchman and had a bad relationship with the officials. Just the fact that the murderer could run amuck in the inner city and kill people without any fear was enough to cause panic among the officials.

“We’ll do our best.”

Wei Yuan nodded. don’t just talk. There have been rumors in the court recently. They say that the gongs in the Yamen are useless. They rely on one Gong to solve cases.

His foster father valued Xu Qi ‘an even more … Yang Yan and Nangong qianrou looked at each other and saw through each other’s thoughts.

He had to do this well and catch Heng Hui as soon as possible. Fortunately, Xu Qi ‘an couldn’t do such a task, so he didn’t have to worry about the little Gong jumping out to steal the credit.

…..

Xu Qi ‘an arrived at the Minister of War’s residence with the Sang Bo case team. He showed his gold medal and was informed by the servants. Then, he entered the minister’s residence with Chu Caiwei, Li Yuchun, the three silver gongs, and Lu Qing, the head of the six Fan School.

The main gate of the minister’s residence and the surrounding walls were all destroyed. It was as if they were being demolished. It was a shocking sight.

“The minister’s residence is really Grand.” After entering the mansion, Lu Qing sighed with emotion.

this house should cost at least ten thousand taels of silver … Li Yuchun guessed.

The leader of the servants sneered. Ten thousand silver taels? A country bumpkin who has never seen the world wants to buy our minister’s residence with ten thousand taels of silver.

A vulgar warrior.

Xu Qi ‘an kicked him in the butt and scolded, “”Lead the way, you dog slave.”

The servant lowered his head and quickened his pace.

Speaking of the word ” dog slave, ” Xu Qi ‘an was reminded of the little queen of the nightclub. He wondered if she had provoked Princess huaiqing today and had been hung up and beaten by the latter.

Xu Qi ‘an met the Minister of War, Zhang Feng, in the living room. He was a serious man with white hair and a goatee.

He sat there in silence, exuding the majesty of a person in a high position for a long time.

“Greetings, Minister.” Xu Qi ‘an cupped his fists.

Zhang Feng gently nodded. I heard from the eunuchs in the palace that Lord Xu is very fast in handling cases. His ability is outstanding. Not only is the progress of the Sang Bo case very fast, but he has also found the true murderer of the count of Ping Yuan’s family extermination case.

“Minister, you’re too kind,” Xu Qi ‘an felt that the other party’s words had a hidden meaning.

“You want to ask me what connection I have with that murderer that the other party would come to my door to seek revenge in the middle of the night?” Said Minister Zhang.

“Yes, I am.” Xu Qi ‘an didn’t expect the other party to cooperate.

Minister Zhang looked at Xu Qi ‘an emotionlessly. Suddenly, he slammed the table and shouted, “”I also want to know, but I want to know why the night watchman hasn’t caught the murderer even though it’s been a long time since the murder of uncle Ping Yuan.

“I also want to know why the night watchman allowed the robbers to commit murder again and again.”

You’re trying to intimidate me right from the start … “Minister, please calm down,” Xu Qi ‘an cupped his fists and said.

Minister Zhang restrained his expression and sighed, “”Although I didn’t go to court today, I know what happened last night. He did not expect that even with five high-ranked martial artists working together, they still could not take down the other party. Instead, it was the four golden gongs who were injured.

“The watchman is loyal to the court, and I naturally see it. Unfortunately, the supervisor is seriously ill and can’t help, causing us to be worried and you to be tired from running.”

His expression was serious, but his tone was gentle and understanding, which made people feel good for him.

Xu Qi ‘an actually had a good impression of the Minister of War, but he quickly came back to his senses … First, he gave me a beating, and then his attitude changed the next moment. He won sympathy and resonance, and made me feel grateful as if I had been acknowledged.

Those who could play politics to rank-2 were indeed not simple.

Xu Qi ‘an coughed and cleared his throat. He said tentatively, “”The real murderer of the count of Ping Yuan’s case and the criminal who attacked the Minister’s mansion last night are the same person.

“He is a monk from the Azure Dragon Temple, his Dharma name is Heng Hui.”

“Henghui?” The Minister of War frowned. I don’t know this person. Why did he attack my residence at night? since he’s a monk from the Azure Dragon Temple, why didn’t Lord Xu look for him? why did you come to my residence instead? ”

“Henghui is just a monk. He’s not worthy of being known by the Minister. However, he eloped with a female devotee more than a year ago and disappeared without a trace. That female devotee was Princess Ping Yang.”

“Princess Ping Yang?” Zhang Feng’s face was filled with shock and disbelief. Princess Ping Yang actually eloped with someone.

Xu Qi ‘an had been observing him, trying to analyze his true thoughts through his micro-expressions, but he failed.

There were no flaws at all.

After asking a few more questions, Xu Qi ‘an decided to change his target. is young master Zhang here? ”

Zhang Feng sent a servant to invite him in. Not long after, Zhang Yi arrived at the reception hall with dark circles under his eyes and a very bad complexion.

…. Your dark eye circles can even compete with Song Qing’s. “Childe Zhang, do you know a monk named henghui?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.

“I don’t.” Zhang Yi shook his head.

“Then do you know hengqing?”

“I don’t.”

“Do you know Hengyuan?”

“I don’t.”

“Do you know Ping Yang?”

“I don’t …” After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he suddenly reacted. “Princess Ping Yang? Naturally, I know him.”

It was completely perfunctory … Xu Qi ‘an nodded and smiled. I’m done. Thank you for your cooperation, Minister Zhang and young master Zhang.

After leaving the Minister’s mansion, Xu Qi ‘an turned his head and said, “”In the process of the questioning just now, which words were true and which were false?”

The Oval-faced Yan Caiwei rolled her eyes. not a single word is true.

“Who are you talking about?”

Yan Caiwei pouted. father and son are both … Oh, the last part is true. The guy with kidney deficiency said that he knew Princess Ping Yang.”

I can understand if Zhang Feng is lying through his teeth … But why was Zhang Yi also lying? There was only one possibility. Zhang Yi was involved in the elopement of henghui and Princess Pingyang.

Think about it, if Zhang Yi was an uninformed person, then Zhang Feng had no reason to disclose such confidential information to his son. Sometimes, ignorance is the best protection. And with Zhang Yi’s image as a time management master, he was obviously not very reliable. If I were Minister Zhang, I would never mention a case that might wipe out the entire family to an unreliable person, even if he was my son.

What was interesting was that when Heng Hui killed the DI son of uncle Ping Yuan that night, he said, “I’m here for revenge.

this case is getting more and more complicated, and it’s getting more and more interesting. I feel like we’re getting close to the truth … Well, the truth of the eloping case of henghui and Princess Pingyang. The Sang Bo case can only continue after we figure out what happened between the two of them.” Xu Qi ‘an was excited.

…..

After a busy day, Xu Qi ‘an bade farewell to Chu Caiwei and Lu Qing when it was time to end the shift. After the two left, song tingfeng and Zhu guangxiao tacitly walked out of the side hall. The three of them tacitly got on their horses and entered the Imperial Academy.

After days of intense investigation, Xu Qi ‘an felt that he needed to relax and relieve his mental pressure.

Anyway, he was going to sleep. There was not much difference between sleeping at home and sleeping on the bed. In addition, Fu Xiang had sent many messages saying that she missed him and wanted to invite him to the Ying Mei Pavilion for tea.

Since that was the case, Xu Qi ‘an thought that they should make an appointment.

It was Not Dark Yet, and it was the peak time for the Yamen to be on duty. There were not many guests in the Imperial Academy of cultivation, and there were not many people in the alley.

“I’m planning to sleep with a prostitute.” Song tingfeng said.

“It’s not worth it to sleep with a prostitute, you’re just coaxing her … It’s a little high.” Xu Qi ‘an suggested sincerely.

Da Feng’s prostitutes weren’t really selling their Arts and not their bodies. They were more like a kind of hype. There were not only adult women in the Academy, but also many young girls. These girls were taught the four Arts from a young age, and were cultivated to be multi-talented.

As they grew up, they would become low-level dancers and singers with average looks and skills. Those with good looks and talent were beautiful people.

When the popularity of the Qingyi people had accumulated to a certain extent, there would be an auction that would inspire men.

“This isn’t worth it.” Xu Qi ‘an persuaded.

“I’ve already said that a man like me is not suitable for marriage and children. There’s no point in saving money.” Song tingfeng was very calm.

Xu Qi ‘an suspected that this guy was afraid of marriage.

“I’m going to get a wife.” Zhu guangxiao said concisely.

However, the price of tea in the courtyard was too high, and the courtesan was Xu Qi ‘an’s lover. He stayed in the plum shadow Pavilion and could only sleep with the maids.

Hiroshi was a rich man now, and he wanted to sleep with a more beautiful woman.

The three of them parted ways, and Xu Qi ‘an entered the small pavilion in yingmei.
