Chapter Forty-Nine: The Peaks and Loops
Qifeng Gorge is the only way for the Xu family to transport goods, and there are not many people who usually pass by, and this news is extremely unfavorable to the Xu family.
"Kong Lao, now the evidence is conclusive, Shi Pojun disappeared mysteriously, the Xu family is the most suspicious, please Kong Lao order, take away the relevant people of the Xu family, etc., please Your Majesty Holy Judgment. ”
Xue Chunyu bent down and bowed, and the final decision was in the hands of Kong Lao.
"Xue Shilang, you are spewing blood!"
Xu Yilin angrily spewed out a mouthful of blood, all the deacons, full of righteous indignation, but speechless, everyone knew in their hearts that the investigation team needed an excuse, needed a substitute for the dead ghost, and the Xu family was the most suitable.
When Shi Pojun disappears, someone must carry the black cauldron.
Xue Chunyu sneered, did not answer Xu Yilin, and waited for Kong Lao's reply.
"What do you think?"
Kong Lao didn't answer Xue Chunyu directly, but looked at Bai Qiu and Gao Hao to listen to their opinions.
"Back to Kong Lao, after scrutiny, although there is no real evidence, this matter has a certain relationship with the Xu family, the last place where Shi Pojun disappeared was in Qifeng Gorge, and the Xu family's convoy passed through here that day, I suggest taking away the guards who transported the goods that day, escorting them to the imperial capital, and then reviewing them by the Criminal Department, this is more appropriate, if the Xu family is indeed innocent, let it back. ”
Chen Lu, who had not spoken, spoke, he was a member of the royal family, neither representing the official, nor the army, nor the Imperial Academy.
"I agree with Lord Chen's statement, Shi Pojun's bows and crossbows and arrows have appeared in Qifeng Gorge, and the Xu family has an inseparable relationship, and the relevant people must be taken away. ”
Bai Qiu agreed with Chen Lu's approach, and was first put in prison, and then made a decision after a thorough review by the Criminal Department.
When they arrived in the imperial capital, the life and death of the Xu family could no longer be controlled by themselves, and life and death depended on their words.
"What do you mean by Mentor Gao?"
Gao Hao did not say anything, every year the Imperial Academy has students who leave, join the army, or return to their places of origin, and those soldiers who died left the academy a few years ago, and this time he was sent here, but it was just a process.
"I'm silent!"
This is Gao Hao's attitude, neither supporting Xue Chunyu nor the Xu family, staying out of the matter.
Next, Kong Lao's attitude is particularly important, as long as he says a word, he can decide the fate of the Xu family, Deacon Lan and the others are about to stop breathing, the Xu family has just improved, and the armory workshop has regained its vitality.
The ore vein is arranged to guard the mountain, and there is no need to worry about being attacked by someone, and the entire Xu family is developing at a high speed.
"The Lord of Danbao Pavilion has arrived!"
At this time, there was a voice outside, and Bi Gongyu, the master of Danbao Pavilion, strode in, and he didn't even have time to report and stepped into the main hall.
Bi took the liberty to come to disturb him, and asked the head of the Xu family to forgive me. ”
hugged his fist towards Xu Yilin, and then looked at Kong Lao, they should not be strangers to each other.
"The junior Bi Gongyu has seen Kong Lao!"
Bent down and bowed, and then nodded at Xue Chunyu and the four of them, it can be regarded as a greeting, Danbao Pavilion has a very high status, and Bi Gongyu is the master of a pavilion, which is even more extraordinary.
"Why did the Palace Lord Bi come here, we are investigating the news of Shi Pojun's disappearance. ”
Xue Chunyu was a little displeased, Bi Gongyu suddenly came, interrupting their rhythm, just like Kong Lao said, the task of the investigation team is a complete success.
Only Liu Wuxie, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he didn't feel any surprise at Bi Gongyu's arrival, looked at his father-in-law, and gave him a reassuring look, so that he didn't have to worry.
"I'm here to bring some useful information about Shi Pojun's disappearance, and I hope it will be helpful to you. ”
Bi Gongyu took out a list of materials from his arms and put it on the table.
Everyone's eyes looked over, and there were many names of elixirs written on them.
"As we all know, our Danbao Pavilion is researching a new medicine, the innocent son is very talented, I was not in Canglan City that day, and Master Huo discussed the alchemy technique, ten days ago they had an exchange, and they researched a new pill, and there are still a few missing materials, the innocent son is willing to go to the Sunset Mountain Range to collect. ”
"This elixir only grows in Shuangta Mountain, starting from Canglan City, it takes five or six days to come and go, this is the medicinal material he brought back yesterday, please take a look. ”
The matter of Liu Wuxie's trip to Danbao Pavilion yesterday must not be hidden from them, and it has already been investigated.
Including the whereabouts of the ten-day ago, Liu Wuxian went to the Danbao Pavilion and sent the Heavenly Spirit Pill over, this information was clear to the investigation team, and everything Bi Gongyu said was true.
Everyone was stunned, Danbao Pavilion actually stood up for the Xu family and clarified that Liu Wuxian had nothing to do with this matter.
"Bi Palace Master, do you know that everything you say is related to the life and death of Shi Pojun. ”
Xue Chunyu's eyes were cold, he was in awe of Danbao Pavilion, but he was not afraid.
"On the report in your hand, there should be a detailed record of everyone's every move in Canglan City recently, and if you look through it, I value Liu Gongzi's talent, and I don't want to be framed by someone, so please be cautious. ”
Bi Gongyu's attitude was very tough, beyond everyone's expectations, the results of the investigation were about to be settled, Dan Bao Pavilion stepped in sideways, what did he want, as he said, he valued Liu Wuxi's talent?
Are you kidding.
These big people care about the life and death of these little people.
"Even if Shi Pojun has nothing to do with him, what to say about the matter of Qifengxia, the Xu family's convoy passed by Qifengxia, and the arrow marks left by Shi Pojun are also here, dare to say that the Xu family has no idea. ”
Xue Chunyu took a step back and destroyed the Xu family, leaving one Liu Wuxie, who could be destroyed with a single gesture.
Bi Gongyu's main purpose is to keep Liu Wuxie, and he really hasn't thought about this matter, his eyebrows are frowning slightly, he didn't expect that the Xu family would be the last to take the blame, and looking at this posture, the opinions of the investigation team have reached a unity.
Keeping Liu Wuxian is equivalent to keeping the Heavenly Spirit Pill, and under the nest, if you have all the eggs and lose the Xu family, how can Liu Wuxian be alone.
"The Canglan City Lord has arrived!"
A burly figure walked quickly into the main hall, and things were full of twists and turns, first the Lord of Danbao Pavilion appeared, and even the City Lord Qi Enshi came, and the Xu family was confused.
The first three investigations, at most two hours, at this time the sky has darkened, it has reached the time of the lamp, a full three hours have passed, the results have not yet come out.
Outside the gate of the Xu family, many spies gathered, and a large amount of news was passed out, and everyone was speculating whether the Xu family could get through this hurdle.
"The students meet with Mr. Kong, colleagues. ”
Qi Enshi bent down and bowed, he had listened to Kong Lao's class back then, and he called the student, but he also said that it was reasonable, and when he looked at the Danbao Pavilion Lord, he showed a trace of astonishment.
"Brother Qi, what are you doing here, is it also to investigate the matter of Shi Pojun?"
Xue Chunyu asked suspiciously, the little Xu family attracted the master of Danbao Pavilion to come to clarify, and Qi Enshi came again, and he was confused.
"I came to prove the innocence of the Xu family, the Xu family's convoy was attacked by mysterious bandits for several days, and the Xu family owner found me and asked the city lord's mansion to send troops to sweep away the mountain bandits. As the city lord, there is such a thing as mountain bandits in the territory, of course, you can't sit idly by, send someone to investigate the truth, according to our investigation, that group of mysterious mountain bandits has already left the Sunset Mountain Range half a month ago. ”
After Qi Enshi finished speaking, he looked at Xu Yilin, blinked his eyes, and signaled him not to speak, which was to excuse the Xu family.
Xu Yilin was stunned, when did he find the City Lord's Mansion.
Xue Chunyu looked stupid!
Bai Qiu's eyes shrank!
Bi Gongyu's eyes lit up!
......
Everyone's expressions were different, Qi Enshi actually took the initiative to stand up and prove the innocence of the Xu family, the arrow marks left by Qifengxia, it was a few days ago, the Xu family's convoy did not encounter mountain bandits, and returned to Canglan City smoothly.
"Brother Qi, do you know what you're talking about!"
Xue Chunyu took a deep breath, the city lord's words still carried a lot of weight, and it was unreasonable to continue to sanction the Xu family, and Danbao Pavilion came forward, so that the investigation team had to reconsider.
"I haven't finished my words yet, according to my investigation, the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group left Canglan City a few days ago, and the disappearance of the Stone Broken Army is inextricably linked to them. ”
Qi Enshi took out a report, which contained a record of the various crimes committed by the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group.
The hall fell silent, the investigation fell into a dead end, the Xu family completely got rid of suspicion, according to the report provided by Qi Enshi, the disappearance of Shi Pojun was done by wolf teeth nine times out of ten.
The wolf's tooth is fivefold, and it has the ability to kill the Shi Po army, which is reasonable.
"Kong Lao, what do you say?"
Xue Chunyu's face was gloomy and terrifying, and he asked Kong Lao in a low voice if he would continue the investigation.
Kong Lao's gaze swept over everyone, from beginning to end, he never said much, his body suddenly stood up, and his hands were folded: "Master Xu, there are many disturbances." ”
After speaking, he walked towards the outside of the hall, and as soon as these words came out, the Xu family was relieved.
Xue Chunyu wanted to say something more, but he couldn't say a word, he shook his hand fiercely, and when he was leaving, his eyes fell on Liu Wuxie's face, with an expression of looking at a dead man.
"Kong Lao go slowly!"
Qi Enshi did not leave the main hall, staying in place, and the high-level members of the Xu family collectively sent Kong Lao away.
In the main hall, there were only three people left, namely Bi Gongyu, Qi Enshi, and Liu Wuxie.
"Young Master Liu, I won't bother you, there is a chance for us to talk. ”
Bi Gongyu got up, arched his hand, and left alone.
"Young Master Liu, you sent the thing!"
There were only the two of them left in the main hall, Qi Enshi looked lunar, and suddenly asked.
"How can you determine that something must have been sent by me? ”
Liu Wuxian was equivalent to admitting that the thing was that he sent someone to the City Lord's Mansion, but he was just curious, Qi Enshi didn't go to his father-in-law, he found himself directly.
"Tell me, where is Zhou Hu?"
Qi Enshi was too lazy to talk to him, and with a little brain, he could guess that the package was sent by Liu Wuxie, and Xu Yilin had never left Canglan City.
What's even more terrifying is that the people sent out by the Wan family and the Tian family have been missing for several days, and during this time, Liu Wuxian has been staying in the mountains.
Qi Enshi can be sure that the people of the Wolf Tooth and Tian and Wan families will never come back, and it is most suitable to frame the dead.
The only thing that made Qi Enshi puzzled, how did so many masters disappear, could they all die at the hands of Liu Wuxie? He quickly shook his head, denying his thoughts, there was only one possibility, behind Liu Wuxie, there was a strong man standing, secretly protecting him.
From a waste, suddenly rising, no one secretly directed, by no means.
On the way here, Qi Enshi analyzed it countless times and finally came to this conclusion.
"You want to know?" Liu Wuxian let out a chuckle, "But why should I tell you." ”
