"Hahaha, I didn't expect Brother Nangong to be here. Jiang Feng laughed, "I haven't seen you for a few days." ”

"It's been a long time. Nangong Jie smiled and touched the cup with Jiang Feng and Zheng Yu.

Early this morning, Jiang Feng, Zheng Yu and others finally came to Liucheng. After entering the city, Jiang Feng and Zheng Yu went to Qian Zhengyu's mansion as soon as possible, but they didn't want to meet Nangong Jie just right.

Jiang Feng and Nangong Jie are old acquaintances, they have played since childhood, and later they served differently, so they performed their own duties, and they have not seen each other for nearly a year. Now that I see it, I am also surprised and delighted.

After visiting Qian Zhengyu and finishing his business, he simply pulled Nangong Jie to drink. First, because Nangong Jie and himself haven't seen each other for a long time and catch up on the old days, and secondly, Nangong Jie has also been in Liucheng for a few days after all, Jiang Feng knows Nangong Jie's ability, so he understands that Nangong Jie may not know less than Qian Zhengyu.

"The last time we saw each other was on the county lord's birthday. Jiang Feng said with some nostalgia, "At that time, I only said a few words, and it was rare to get together like this." ”

"You're a big official, you're busy with business, and you can't find you if you want to, so you're embarrassed to say it. Although Nangong Jie was joking, he was also telling the truth.

Jiang Feng's career is indeed lucky, and now he is still in his early twenties, and he is an emperor who has to hold a position every day, which makes others envious.

"Brother Nangong, Brother Jiang has mentioned you many times in front of me. Zheng Yu also said, raising a glass to toast Nangong Jie, "It's better to meet than to be famous." ”

"Brother Zheng is too modest. Jiang Feng introduced the two of them to each other, and Nangong Jie knew Zheng Yu, so he also raised his glass at this time and drank it with Zheng Yu.

"Hehe, I envy you, you stay by the side of the county lord of Qinghe every day, and you are happy. Jiang Feng pointed at Nangong Jie and shook his head, "I'm too busy." ”

"Alas, don't be in the midst of blessings and don't know blessings, you are a position, I don't know how many people envy it. Nangong Jie laughed and scolded Jiang Feng.

"That's because they only see the benefits of this position, and how can they know that this position is hard. Jiang Feng didn't agree with Nangong Jie's words.

"Hahaha, since you all envy each other, in my opinion, you should just change it. Zheng Yu also laughed, teasing the two of them.

"Haha, I'm afraid that I'm willing, people don't want to, and the beauty is on the side, how can I let go easily. Jiang Feng said, squeezing his eyes towards Nangong Jie, "How do you say that sentence, oh, the peony flower dies, and the ghost is also romantic." Hahaha......"

"Brother Jiang, don't talk nonsense, the royal county lord, how can it be that you and I can get involved. Nangong Jie smiled and waved his hand, but his eyes did become dim for a moment, and when he was undetectable, he was back to normal.

"Brother Jiang and Brother Zheng came to Liucheng this time, they must not be looking for me, right?" Subsequently, Nangong Jie also opened the topic, he knew that Jiang Feng and Zheng Yu must be on official business, and he brought it up at this time, which also showed his attitude of helping if he could.

"Hahaha, Brother Nangong is really as sharp as ever. Hearing Nangong Jie's words, Jiang Feng praised.

"Are you really looking for me?" Nangong Jie was taken aback, the search for himself in his mouth was naturally not related to him, but the Qinghe County Lord beside him.

"Yes and no. Jiang Feng smiled indifferently and said lightly, "Brother Zheng and I came this time mainly for two purposes, one is to investigate the murder of the imperial city, and the other is to take the county lord of Qinghe back to the palace. ”

"I'm afraid of ......"

"It's been nearly three months, and it's been a long time since Lord Qingge came out. Jiang Feng interrupted Nangong Jie's words and looked at Nangong Jie with a frown, "Do you really want to change the guards around the Qingge County Lord?"

Nangong Jie also looked at Jiang Feng, he knew the meaning on Jiang Feng's face. It is not a small crime to accompany the county lord of Qinghe out of the palace without permission, if he resists the holy will now, and the county lord of Qingge has an accident, he can't afford it, Jiang Feng and Zheng Yu.

Especially Jiang Feng's last sentence put Nangong Jie in a dilemma. Nangong Jie naturally wanted to make the county lord of Qingge happy, but he really wanted to be by the side of the county lord of Qinghe, and if he was someone else, he didn't want to, and he couldn't rest assured.

"I ...... I'm afraid ......" For a while, Nangong Jie also didn't know what to say.

"There's no need to rush this matter, it's not too late for me to make a decision when I solve the case of the Imperial City. Jiang Feng saw Nangong Jie stumbling, and knew that he had to leave it to him, or to give the Qinghe County Lord time to think, and he didn't press Nangong Jie to make a decision at the moment.

"But I heard that there has been a murder in Liucheng in recent days?" Then, Jiang Feng changed his words and brought the topic to the other side.

"Hmm. Nangong Jie came back to his senses and nodded.

"I don't know if it's the same murderer we're chasing. Zheng Yu expressed his suspicions, but was then vetoed by Nangong Jie.

"I'm afraid it's not the same as you think, the murder in Liucheng happened more than two months ago. Subsequently, Nangong Jie explained, "Let's talk about the beginning, more than two months ago, a fire in the ruins of the south of the city burned more than 20 corpses. ”

"Burned?" Before Nangong Jie finished speaking, Zheng Yu asked, in exchange for Nangong Jie shaking his head again.

"If you want to say that June is the time when the catkins are all over the sky, it is normal for there to be occasional fires, but how can it be possible to burn more than twenty people to death at the same time in one ruin?" Nangong Jie smiled bitterly and denied it very regretfully, "Besides, they all broke their bones and bones, and they were obviously beaten to death." ”

"Besides, the most recent time, in a courtyard on the east street, more than a dozen people died, and Captain Wang Zhen and I had received the news, but when we arrived, the person was gone, leaving only the corpse and many broken ice swords on the ground. ”

After Nangong Jie finished speaking, he also felt very sorry for the events of that night, and this matter was revealed for some reason, and now all kinds of news are flying all over the sky, which also makes Qian Zhengyu and others not know how to deal with it, and it is a headache.

"I heard that the murderer knows the art of ice and fire, but now that I listen to what Brother Nangong said, is it true?" After listening to Nangong Jie, Jiang Feng asked, after entering Liucheng, along the way, they also heard a lot of gossip in the city, but when Nangong Jie said it, it gave him a little more credibility.

"The art of fire is not yet known, but the art of ice should be known. Nangong Jie said, Jiang Feng nodded, but he didn't show too much surprise.

The world is so big, there are no wonders, plus he has also seen magical exercises, such as his finger sword duel, which is bladeless, and Nangong Jie's Flame Sun Foehn Wind Sword, which is also one of the techniques of ice and fire that they say, the art of fire. Therefore, it is not as frightened as ordinary people.

And his surprise was that the two techniques of ice and fire should have clashed with each other, but someone was able to cultivate at the same time and achieve magic. And how did he know that Han Yi would actually only be one of them.
