Nightwatcher Chapter 132: True culprit
The opponent's powerful wrist made the black robe detective aware of the strength gap between the two sides. He is a senior intelligence officer, and will not lose his mind because of the crisis.
On the contrary, years of training made him calmer in times of crisis.
"Master Xu, you don’t need to be like this. You have to investigate the case of the Three Thousand Miles of Blood and are afraid of offending His Royal Highness. These humble duties are understandable. But I advise you not to be impulsive. There are a few things you have to think about. Understand.
"First, the princess was not robbed by the barbarians. I can't hide this. Haha, I can't tell you why. But believe me, if the princess falls into the hands of the barbarians, His Royal Highness will eventually know.
"But the result is that the princess was rescued by you. As long as you investigate afterwards, the point where you left the mission is the same as the time the princess was robbed. That's enough. Whom the Royal Highness wants to deal with, no evidence is needed. He thinks you are the enemy."
The king of Zhenbei is more domineering than I thought... Xu Qi'an was expressionless and continued to listen.
"Secondly, you saved the princess, it is a great achievement. His Royal Highness Huai has been in charge of soldiers for many years, and the four words "reward and punishment are clearly distinguished" are the most important. If you can catch the line of King Huai, Xu Yinluo, you must The future is boundless. Wei Yuan can only promote your official position, but Duke Huai is the prince, he can promote your knighthood."
"Thirdly, the case is just a case, and one thing that has been mishandled will not affect your reputation for solving strange cases. The future is the most important, isn't it. Why bother to solve a case that has nothing to do with you and affect yourself? "
The princess took a step back silently. She didn't look at the black robe spy, her attention was all on Xu Qi'an.
Although he is a womanizer, his style of doing things is decent, he is definitely not the kind of scum who betrays others for the future... The princess has certain confidence in this, but he is still a little nervous and nervous. .
After all, what Xu Qi'an is facing now is the pressure to offend the prince, and the future of being an official.
Bureaucracy exists in any world..........Xu Qi'an nodded slowly:
"It makes sense, I'm almost convinced. You are right. The princess is originally the wife of Zhenbei King. I don't need to offend a prince for this."
The black robe spy showed a smile on his masked face. He was betting that Xu Qi'an would not offend Duke Huai; betting that Xu Qi'an was more concerned about his future.
There is purgatory on one side, and wonderland on the other, fools know what to choose.
Of course, whether these words can be fulfilled, and whether Duke Huai is willing to give Xu a beautiful future, who cares.
As long as you survive this disaster and return to the barracks, Xu Qi'an will be the chopping board. As for Wang Qi technique, the black robe spy is not worried, he just said all the truth.
Duke Huai does distinguish rewards and punishments.
Looking at the black-robed spy who was obviously relieved, Xu Qi'an said in a heavy tone: "Answer me a question, and I will let you go. What's the matter with the blood slaughtered three thousand miles?"
The black robe spy's heart sank, and he sternly said: "Xu Qi'an, if you have to check it down, all that awaits you is destruction. King Huai pinched you to death, like an ant.
"Not only you, your family, your relatives and friends, all have to sit together. If you don't want them to bury you, you better let me go."
Seeing Xu Qian's silence, the black robe spy sneered: "You kill me, at most killing people and killing people, what's the point? Can you call my soul.
"Be interesting, think about it, what I just said is still valid."
As an intelligence officer, he understands people's hearts and speaks well. Combination of coercion and profit and lure, using advances as bait and relatives and friends as threats.
"You are right." Xu Qi'an grinned.
The black robe spy shrank, with an ominous premonition, and tentatively said: "What, what?"
Xu Qi'an stared into his eyes and repeated: "You are right, I really can call souls."
After finishing speaking, he saw the pupils of the black robe scout shrank sharply, and then struggling hard, sternly threatening: "Xu Qi'an, I am the spy of King Huai. If you dare to kill me, you are an enemy of King Huai. It will not end well.
"Are you a fool? No, fools are smarter than you. If you don't go on Sunshine Avenue, you want to..."
With a click, the anger ceases.
"It's so noisy."
Xu Qi'an casually threw the corpse on the ground. The spy opened his eyes wide and stared at the sky silently, seemingly unable to catch his eyes.
Good killing! The princess cheered secretly in her heart.
She slowly settled her heart, let out a sigh of relief, and looked at Xu Qi'an again, the appreciation in her eyes was undisguised.
Unconsciously, Xu Qi'an's image here has become more and more vivid and three-dimensional, and her trust in Xu Qi'an is also growing. These changes are happening quietly, and it is difficult for me to immediately notice.
The princess just wanted to say: Let’s hurry!
I saw Xu Qi'an taking out a book, tearing off a page, and igniting it with a gas engine. In an instant, a yin wind blew out of thin air. There seemed to be a scream of crying in his ears, and the warm sun in the sky lost its temperature.
Then, the princess saw a series of unrealistic figures, turning into blue smoke, floating in the air about a foot in front of Xu Qi'an.
Ghosts...The princess' eyes widened a little and her mouth opened little by little, frightened.
She has never seen a ghost in her life. She usually fills up her brain and scares herself. Now that she sees a real ghost, she is a little confused, she has no thoughts, and even forgot to escape.
Xu Qi'an didn't notice that the princess was in fear. Even if he noticed, there is no time to comfort the first beauty of Dafeng.
There are more important things waiting for him to do.
In addition to the three barbarians who died in Xu Qi'an's hands and the black robe spy, he also summoned the dead souls of the dead soldiers.
The new souls are stupid and dull, their eyes are dull.
Xu Qi'an looked at the black-robed man, was silent for a few seconds, and slowly said: "What's the matter with the blood slaughtered three thousand miles?"
The spy’s expression was stiff, and his voice replied: "His Royal Highness Huai's impact on the Second Stage Great Perfection requires a lot of life essence to increase the blood of the warrior."
This sentence is like Jiao Lei blowing in the ears of Xu Qi'an and Princess Wang.
The blood massacre was three thousand miles away, and it was the king of Zhenbei who did it........At this moment, Xu Qi'an's brain buzzed, as if he was hit by someone in the head.
I actually had predicted that if the blood slaughter three thousand miles was done by the barbarians, how could Tang Shanjun and others as the leader of the tribe not know? How is it possible not to participate?
It’s just Chu Xianglong’s ignorance that made me ignore this detail, thinking that there is still insider information about the case...No, the real reason is that I don’t want to believe it.
I don't want to believe that a prince who has guarded the border for more than ten years, a great royal family, will slaughter the people who admire him and love him for his own selfish desires.
Xu Qi'an trembled and muttered: "Unforgivable..."
He prefers that all this is done by the barbarians. Everyone has different camps. Meeting is life and death. Today you slaughter Dafeng people, and I will lead the army to defeat the barbarian tribe.
Since it is a mortal enemy, there is nothing to say.
But he couldn't accept that it was the king of Zhenbei who caused this tragedy, the prince of Dafeng. He waved the butcher knife on his own people, only for the reason that he was promoted to the second rank.
Beast!
Yes, it was made by Duke Huai...The princess covered her lips, tears bursting into her eyes.
After a long time, Xu Qi'an heard his hoarse voice asking: "Where is the killing location?"
The black robe man replied with a dazed expression: "I don't know."
I don't know... This answer was beyond Xu Qi'an's expectation. Shouldn't it be Xikou County? Isn't it all blocked over there?
In addition, it is unscientific to even be a secret agent of Zhenbei Wang's confidant who does not know about this.
"Who knows?" Xu Qi'an asked out his doubts.
"Chu Zhou commanded Que Yongxiu and the "Tian" spy to know." The soul of the black robe man said.
Que Yongxiu in the command room?
Xu Qi'an pondered for a moment, and recalled this person's information: Que Yongxiu, the commander of Chuzhou, and Lord Protector.
A hereditary title.
The first generation of Lord Huguo was the Pinghai King of the year, and the later Emperor Wuzong's worshiping brother.
Emperor Wu Zong was the prince who joined the Buddhist monarchy to kill the first generation of prisoners five hundred years ago, under the name of the Qing emperor, who sought to usurp the throne.
The line of Lord Protector is a rare evergreen tree among the old nobles. Most of them have marriages with royal family members. In the family history, they have married two princesses and four princesses.
Que Yongxiu has the blood of Dafeng royal family.
"Que Yongxiu and Zhenbei Wang Gangxiu made a tragic case of three thousand miles of blood.... Collect evidence to report them. I don't believe that Emperor Yuan Jing can cover two people. Even if he wants to cover, Wei Gong I don’t agree, and the court officials also don’t agree..."
The Gonggon princes in the court, the civil and military officials in the capital, the good and the bad, the shrewd and shrewd, are a force that even the emperor can't resist.
Such a shocking tragedy, as long as it is unleashed, the hundred officials in the capital can't sit idly by.
Xu Qi'an resisted the urge to return to the capital with his soul, because this was not enough, and the soul of a spy alone was not enough to bring down Zhenbei King and Lord Guardian.
He turned to look at the three barbarians and asked: "What is the reason for you to intercept and kill the secret agent of Zhenbei King?"
The Qingyan tribe on the left replied: "Look for the place where the Zhenbei King slaughtered the creatures, and report to the leader."
The Qingyan tribe in the middle then replied: "The leader also wants to be promoted to the second rank."
The Qingyan Tribe on the right finally replied: "During this period of time, we have hunted each other with the agents of the Zhenbei King, which has damaged many people."
"Why are you looking for a place where the King of the North of Zhenbei slaughtered the souls?" Xu Qi'an glanced at the remnant soul of the black-robed man standing still.
He immediately grasped the main point, thinking that there was a big problem here.
According to the logic, finding the location of the crime is what the organizer has to do, and it is also one of the crimes he must find. If the victim cannot be found, the case cannot be investigated.
However, the detective of the Zhenbei King didn't know the location of the crime, but the barbarians were looking for the location of the crime, which showed that the blood massacre had not really ended yet.
"Grab the essence and blood." The barbarian on the left replied.
Xu Qi'an asked the barbarians in the middle and right again, and got a unified answer.
According to the analysis of the ambush, the barbarians want to seize the good luck of the King of Zhenbei in two ways: first, seize the princess; second, seize the essence and blood.
According to the second point of feedback, it can be known that the Blood Slaughter Three Thousand Miles case is not over, in other words, the Zhenbei King has not been completed yet. Otherwise, the spies of the Qingyan Department should have withdrawn their troops long ago.
No wonder that when the princess was besieged, there were no masters in the Qingyan Department. If nothing else, they all sneaked into Chuzhou, looking for a place where the blood massacre was three thousand miles away. The secret agent of the Zhenbei King and the barbarians secretly battled wits and hunted each other.
It’s no wonder that when picking up the princess, there were no secret agents to **** and respond. They must be overwhelmed. While hiding the blood slaughter for three thousand miles, they wanted to hunt the barbarians who sneaked into Chuzhou.
"Only your Qingyan tribe knows about this?" Xu Qi'an asked again.
"Yes." Manzi replied.
This is not right....How did the head of the Qingyan Tribe know this? Xu Qi'an pondered for a moment and said:
"Have you seen a warlock in the tribe."
"I have seen it." Manzi said blankly.
Well, if this is the case, the Qingyan Department knows all the inside story of the Blood Slaughter Sanqianli, and these are all told by the mysterious warlock gang.
Two conclusions can be drawn from this: First, the mysterious warlock gang is supporting the leader of the Qingyan Tribe, supporting him to win the good luck of the King of the North, and promote him to the second rank.
Second, the mysterious warlock group seize the luck of Dafeng, support the leader of the barbarian tribe, infiltrate the court, cannibalize the power of Dafeng, and the position is clear at a glance.
Xu Qi'an did not continue questioning, and said in a deep voice: "Keep down and cover your eyes."
The princess cooperated skillfully and immediately squatted down to cover her eyes.
Xu Qi'an took out the fragments of the earth book, put the bodies of the black robe spies and the three barbarians into the small jade mirror, then opened them and collected their souls.
"Let's go!"
He squatted down in front of the princess, turned his back to her, and said, "Come up."
This time, the princess did not hesitate, opened her hands, and put her arms around Xu Qi'an's neck. She found herself no longer resisting some physical contact with this man at this moment.
It's strange.
The princess turned her head and looked behind her. A gust of wind blew in. Those soul bodies that were not real enough were shattered and dissipated in the wind like dream bubbles.
She suddenly felt sorrowful, and said in a low voice: "He is not worthy of the title of King of the North."
"Shut up, hold me tight."
"Hmm." Her arms were tight and she lay on Xu Qi'an honestly.
Boom! In the muffled sound of the ground trembling, Xu Qi'anli rushed out like an arrow and disappeared into the wilderness.
...........
At noon, a hundred miles away from Sanhuang County, the direction is west.
The princess was sitting by the creek, gnawing a chicken leg, not very ladylike, eating, and looking at Xu Qi'an who was in a daze. She was always arrogant and she was a rare and gentle voice:
"What do you plan to do next?"
Xu Qi'an looked at her, smiled, and fiddled with the bonfire, "Actually, the reason why I took you north is to use you to blackmail the king of Zhenbei and make her cast a rat avoidance device. The original intention was bad."
She pursed her lips, and said sadly: "I know."
She is not a fool either. This man went north to investigate the case and brought himself by his side. You can guess what the picture is with your brain.
Xu Qi'an was surprised: "Hey, are you not angry? This is not in line with your usual personality."
The princess shook her head and whispered: "I was born good-looking since I was a child. When I was nine years old, I went to the Jade Buddha Temple with my parents to burn incense. The temple host met me and wrote a poem. Well, you should know that poem.
"From then on, I became famous, and my parents worked harder to train me, hoping that I would become a talented woman who is knowledgeable and proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
"At the age of thirteen, the family was under more and more pressure because of being too beautiful. Not only did they have to deal with high-ranking officials who came to ask for a kiss, but even some people with no blood relationship looked at me strangely.
"My parents and elders have protected me very well. This is not because of how much they love me, but because they don’t want any flaws in the precious goods. Finally in that year, the emperor sent someone to look for me. I enter the palace.
"Parents and elders were so happy, tears filled their eyes. Yes, the goods they worked so hard to cultivate finally sold at the highest price.
"After I entered the palace, I saw the emperor only once, and then I was left out in the cold. Later, I learned that the emperor had started to practice at that time and was not close to female sex. For me, this is a good thing. The palace is delicious. Live, good clothes and good food, and you don’t have to be wronged to cater to stinky men.
"After the Battle of Shanhaiguan, I was given to Duke Huai again and became his full concubine. I lived in Duke Huai’s Mansion for 20 years. I know what their brothers are thinking about.
"But what can I do? I'm just a weak woman. Don't say there are guards and maids to watch. Even if there are no restrictions, let me run. I ran from the Huai Palace to the outer city gate. It’s half gone.
"I have been a cargo since I was a child, and I have been donated by others. When it becomes worthless, I will be abandoned like a shoe."
By the campfire, she hugged her knees, her voice was soft, and there was no sadness or joy on her face.
"So you treat me as a bargaining chip, as a cargo, I will not blame you, compared to the brothers, I think you are a good person."
This, this is too miserable... Xu Qi'an's heart is filled with pity, this has nothing to do with beauty, this pity is the same as for Zhong Li.
Out of total sympathy.
He looked at the princess and questioned: "Is it really not strange?"
The princess was very honest this time, and nodded her head: "Weird, I just thought you were going to betray me, so angry to death."
Xu Qi'an smiled, "The woman is like this, her mouth is wrong."
She laughed herself, and then asked: "What do you plan to do with the Zhenbei King's affairs? Since this matter was done by him, the nature is much more serious than lie to the military.
"You insist on fighting him, I'm afraid it won't end well."
The mountain breeze was blowing, the bonfire was shaking, and a lot of time passed in the quiet atmosphere. Xu Qi'an slowly said: "Find the place where the blood slaughter is three thousand miles away, stop him, punish him, if possible, I will kill him. "
The princess looked at him foolishly.
...........
Sanhuang County, Yayin Building.
"Boom..."
Cai'er, who was leaning on the soft collapse and reading a free book, heard a knock on the door, followed by the laughter of the old bustard: "Cai'er, Master Zhao is here, take good care of her."
Cai'er received the book and said softly: "Okay, Mom."
The door of the room opened, and a middle-aged man dressed as a rich man entered with a lewd smile on his face.
He crossed the entry barrier, turned back and closed the door, and when he turned back, his face was not seen, serious and serious.
The middle-aged man looked at Cai'er and nodded, "Tell him the news about Xikou County?"
Cai'er salutes ~IndoMTL.com~ respectfully said: "Yes, he has no doubts."
The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, sat at the table, poured a cup of tea, and said leisurely: "But with his dexterity, he will definitely realize that something is wrong afterwards, but then the matter will be over."
Cai'er did not speak.
The middle-aged man continued: "I will go north these days. You will leave Sanhuang County in the near future. If I die on the way, you will never come back."
After a pause, he said solemnly: "Tsing Yi Attendant."
Cai'er lowered her head: "No regrets if you die."
