Chapter 470: Looks the same
"Let's go check it out first."
Helan said as he stepped out of the door.
There is not much movement in the yard, and there are only two entrances, and the furnishings are also very simple.
"I just found out that the secret prostitution hall turned out to be like this." Xiao Huai looked around.
"You don't need to know much about that." Helan said lightly. Then he waved at the guards, and the ordered ones immediately jumped up to the roof like cats, and everything was quiet in the night.
They both stood with their arms crossed, as if they were idle and casual, but they did not make any more jokes.
After a while, there was a rhythmic light whistle on the roof, and a guard flew down, came to him and said, "Back to the young master, there is no one in the house, but there are people living in it."
"The owner is a young woman, and there are traces of a long life in the house, and then a sword is found in the wall."
As he spoke, he presented the sword he had brought with both hands.
Xiao Huai stretched out his hand and took it, the long sword was ordinary, and there was nothing special about it.
"It should be kept around for self-defense. But at least it shows that this person can do martial arts. ”
He handed the sword to Helan Chen: "A secret prostitute who knows martial arts has a secret door to the Taoist temple, which is really surprising." ”
Helan Zhen didn't answer, looked at the sword repeatedly for a while, and raised his head and said, "Go and invite Master Huo immediately." ”
The Yanwang Mansion is close to the Yamen of the Six Ministries, and since Huo Yan entered the Criminal Department, he simply moved back to the palace.
At this moment, King Yan is meeting guests in the Duanyang Palace, he is accompanied, here I heard that Helan is in a hurry, so he gave King Yan and went to this secret prostitution hall.
Helan Zhen took out the sword: "Do you recognize it?" ”
Taking the sword in his hand, Huo Yan glanced at it a few times, and said suddenly: "It's the same as the sword I fished up at the bottom of the canal that day." ”
"Do you see it?" Xiao Huai said.
"It's also two feet and nine inches, and the material is fine iron, so there will be no mistake." Huo Zhen was determined.
Helan Zhen had no surprises. The reason why he was invited by others was naturally because he had some numbers in his heart.
It was a singer who assassinated them on the ship that day, and this place is such a dusty place, which shows that there are still many such women under the other party's hands.
"If this person doesn't have the power to respond to every call, he really doesn't have the ability to lay such a big plate." Xiao Huai looked up and looked around: "Let's talk in a different place first." ”
Su Yan was left in ambush here, and the three of them went out of the courtyard and arrived in an open place.
"Since this secret prostitution hall is next door to the Taoist temple, then even if the Taoist priests of the Taoist temple are not all related to the killer, they must also have their spies hidden in them.
"In that case, the people who were watching you that day must have been the people from the docks.
"They lost their hands at the docks, and they haven't come out for so long, but this time they are just secretly watching, I don't know what they want to do?"
Xiao Huai held the sword and said as he looked at it.
He remembered that he had discussed the origin of these killers with Shen Xi, and Shen Ruopu also speculated that the killers were coming to Helan.
This is strange, what kind of grudge can Helan Chen have with them? Or is it ...... Xu Jing?
He looked up at him, but because Huo Yan didn't know about the soul of the sect, he didn't ask the words.
"Simply arrest that Taoist priest for interrogation." On the way here, Huo Zhen had already heard the guard tell him the reason, so he asked.
"Not yet." Xiao Huai said, "There was no one in the courtyard, and it didn't look like she was frightened and fled, so I guess I just went out temporarily, and I'll wait until she comes back to see." ”
Speaking of this, he thought for a while, and then said, "If there is nothing important waiting for you over there in the Carrier Palace, you can take a few people to the Taifu Mansion to have a look."
"If it's possible, try to find out what Bi Shangyun is doing now, and then leave a few people to squat there, Bi Shangyun is extremely suspicious."
Huo Zhen frowned, pinched his chin and said, "Do you think that the relationship between the prince and Mrs. Bi is also a little delicate?" ”
Xiao Huai looked at Helan Chen, Helan knew better than him about the Carrier Palace.
"Yes, there are some." He said briefly, and then said, "Let's not talk about this layer first, you go to Bifu first." ”
Huo Yan didn't say anything, and quickly left with people.
There were only two of them left here, and Helan Zhen said with an unpredictable expression: "I don't think you guessed wrong, whether it is the killer on the dock or the one who is watching outside Zhang's house, they are all coming for me."
"Or rather, it's for Xu Jing."
These words were like a pebble, and they easily made Xiao Huai's thoughts float.
"Remember when I told you that my death in Yunnan was a conspiracy?"
Helan Zhen raised his head again: "Back then, I found out that Duan You was suspected of rebellion, although Duan You's crime was conclusive, and he himself confessed to the crime, but I always doubted the exact reason why he did it.
"What's more, I found that he still has something to do with Prince An's Mansion, and once several things are combined, I can easily become the target of the other party's extermination if I stay in Yunnan for a detailed investigation."
Xiao Huai nodded, he had heard him on the way to pick up King Yan that night.
"You mean, those people who killed you in the past now found out that you were Xu Jing, so they came to kill you again?"
Helan looked back at him: "Think about it the other way, if the person who killed me back then was the one who helped Wen Chan kill Ah Ying, and now that he finds out that I still exist, will he still not keep me?" ”
Xiao Huai crossed his hands on his hips and frowned.
Wen Chan killed Zhang Ying with her own hands, and later learned that Zhang Ying had become Shen Xi, and her first reaction was to kill her.
Therefore, Helan Zhen's speculation is very reasonable, the person who killed him back then killed him in order to kill him, so once he learned that he might be resurrected, then he would naturally kill him.
After all, he is not an ordinary person, he has martial arts and strategy, and he has a great chance of seeking revenge! Who would allow themselves to be sought for revenge at the end of their lives?
"So I guess that the people who helped to torture and kill Ah Ying in the past, as well as the people who killed me because of the Duan You, are not only alive, but also the Taoist temple and the prostitution hall in front of me are the clues.
"And what we want to check now is the identity of this person, is he Bi Shangyun? And what kind of hatred does he have with Prince An's mansion? So much so that the entire Great Qin was implicated? ”
Helan Zhen looked up at the courtyard with red lights not far away, and said slowly.
In fact, after checking so far, whether Bi Shangyun is just the final veil, and what they can be sure of is that this person does exist.
Xiao Huai looked at him after being silent: "How could they suspect that you are Xu Jing?" ”
Helan stared at him for a while, and said in a rambling voice: "Ah Ying didn't tell you that I look exactly the same as Xu Jing?" ”
Xiao Huai immediately froze, as if he had just swallowed a big frog alive, and his whole face was distorted......
Shen Xi slept until midnight, only to feel that his side was empty, and he thought that Xiao Huai had gone to the study, turned over and fell asleep again.
In a daze, she heard Qi Jiu calling her, and her tone was still a little eager.
"Girl, there's a situation!"
Qi Jiu nudged her.
She finally opened her eyes and sat up after seeing her clearly.
Liu Menglan showed her feet again. Fang Cai Wang'er saw him slip out of the palace and let this go in the tree hole to the west of the palace! ”
Qi Jiu took out a note rolled into a small roll and handed it to her.
