The news from Long Yi's side came back quickly, and in the afternoon of the same day, he had already received a very important information. He didn't care that it was time for Ji Hongye to return home, and told him everything he had just known.

Ji Hongye, who was preparing the car, suddenly dispelled his thoughts, he rubbed his forehead a little irritably, and said coldly: "Is the news confirmed, could it be that someone deliberately disturbed the line of sight?"

Long Yi replied respectfully: "There will be no problem." ”

"Why is there this Qi Liansheng everywhere. Ji Hongye's voice was obviously a few degrees lower, revealing a burst of gloomy meaning.

In his impression, Qi Liansheng was very evil. He is probably practicing evil arts, always wearing strange clothes, and tinkering with things that others can't understand.

He has seen a lot of Jianghu warlocks, but Qi Liansheng is the only one who can live in Xiangguo's Mansion and become a guest of Zong Xuanyi.

There is nothing unusual about becoming a guest of Xiangguo. Xiangguo likes to get power, and the house has long been supporting customers, especially in recent years, the number of people has exceeded 100.

The place where Qi Lian was evil was there, he could kill people in a way that ordinary people couldn't do. There were two courtiers who had different political views from Xiangguo before, and two of them died very strangely. Not only is the death horrible, but even the cause of death has not been ascertained until now.

The two ministers who died were both officials of the imperial court, one from the third rank and the other from the fourth rank, both of whom were members of the ministry. After the death of the two, Dali Temple and the Criminal Department were unable to close the case for a long time, which made people panic in the court. Many people don't dare to say it, even if they have different opinions from Xiangguo.

This matter is a knot in Ji Hongye's heart. He had long concluded that the murderer of these two assassinations was Qi Liansheng, but because there was no evidence and Xiangguo tried his best to deal with each other, he couldn't arrest anyone.

Qi Liansheng is also a person who can make trouble, knowing that he is being stared at, but he still swaggers through the market. He was triumphant every day, as if swearing that you mortals could not do anything to me.

"When did Qi Liansheng start to have contact with Ning Yanqi?"

"I haven't found out yet, but my subordinates are sure that they didn't know each other earlier. ”

Since they didn't know each other, and now they are secretly corresponding, there must be some interests involved in them. Now the most important thing in the Daning Dynasty is to establish a prince, presumably Empress Shen wants to occupy the camp of Xiangguo again.

Ji Hongye sneered when he thought of this. No one in the court knows that Xiangguo is all the way with King Xun. King Xun is from the imperial concubine again, and this time, Queen Shen really made a bloody investment, and she was willing to release her suspicions with the imperial concubine and unite the front.

"It is said that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. Long Yi, do you think Empress Shen and the Imperial Concubine will calmly let each other become the Queen Mother?"

Long Yi's attitude was still very respectful, and he didn't look at the master's expression when he spoke, but said in a deep voice: "The subordinates have limited vision, and they can't see how the two people in the palace will choose." But the subordinates think that if they want to coexist peacefully, they can't. Needless to say, it's too far, even among those aunts in the backyard of our Ji Mansion, which one of them is willing to be subservient. ”

Ji Hongye's calm expression just now warmed up a little, he looked at Long Yi, his tone was light, and he couldn't hear any emotion: "You have grown up in the past few years, and you have just analyzed it very well." ”

The subordinates just talked casually, and they didn't dare to bear the praise of the third master. ”

Ji Hongye didn't say anything, Long Yi is good at everything, and the bad thing is that he does things too decently. He never seems to have the idea of seeking wealth and risk, and will choose the least risky one in everything he does.

This is also why he chose Long Yi alone among many excellent candidates. He needs a cautious person by his side who can help him with a lot of things.

But at this time, I have to say that Long Yi is not to his liking. He is a person who loves talents, and naturally hopes that his subordinates can show their abilities, rather than blindly taoguang and obscurity.

"You let people follow Dong Qiaoqing closely, and you will report back as soon as there is news. ”

Long Yi whispered, but saw Ji Hongye frowning: "Has the person who followed Qi Liansheng disappeared again?"

Long Yi was also very helpless about this, and the people sent to follow Qi Liansheng would be missing every time. He's sent his best guards, and he's sent seven, and they're still nowhere to be found.

"My subordinates don't know how high Qi Liansheng's martial arts are, so why don't I try it with Ye Bing tonight. ”

Ji Hongye was speechless, and asked after a moment of silence, "Ji Xiaobai still hasn't come out?"

Ji Xiaobai has been in retreat since he lost to Mu Li. He was originally a martial arts idiot, and he had never met an opponent in his life, so he didn't expect to lose this time, so he couldn't turn around for a while.

"You go and tell him that he lost not because of his poor martial arts, but because he suffered a loss of weapons. ”

Long Yi didn't agree with his opinion, but he didn't dare to question it. Victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, how can there be a victorious general in this world?

Even if Ji Xiaobai was undefeated last time, he would eventually meet someone who could defeat him one day. If he can't see this clearly and can't accept it, then he will lock himself up for the rest of his life.

Ji Hongye just glanced at Long Yi lightly, and saw what he was thinking, and he said calmly: "Do you think what I said is wrong?"

"The subordinates don't dare. ”

"You've been following me for so many years, there's no need to hide your words. ”

Long Yi was encouraged by him and said, "A true master can use anything as a weapon, it can be a bunch of willow branches, or even a flower. Therefore, there is no high or low weapon, and the victory or defeat is because of the person who practices martial arts. ”

"You're right, but you're ignoring an important issue, which is that you play against your opponent. When two people are about the same ability, external conditions become the determining factor. ”

Long Yi thought, this is actually right. Ji Xiaobai and Mu Li, if they have to compare themselves, it will still be difficult.

Icebreaker is an ancient famous sword, ranking first on the spectrum of weapons today. Many people know about this sword, but they don't have the opportunity to see it, let alone know whose hands it is.

But whoever walks the rivers and lakes, there is no one who does not desire to see this sword. Who would have thought that the young man with the sword would be the one who would have carried it, and if he hadn't said it himself, no one would have been able to guess it.

Long Yi is a person who practices martial arts, and naturally he is also a good weapon, and after he saw the icebreaking, he felt that it was indeed a good sword, and it was unstoppable. And although Shengchi is also cast by a famous general, it is still too thick compared to icebreaker.

"You go and tell Ji Xiaobai today, I got a good sword by chance, and I can fight with the icebreaker, I think he will definitely be interested. ”

Long Yi said that it was completely impossible not to be surprised, Qi Liansheng was a treacherous thing, and he was very vicious. He and Ye Bing should be able to deal with it together, but after all, they are not sure, if there is Ji Xiaobai, it will be foolproof.

When Long Yi went to find Ji Xiaobai, he was practicing hanging upside down in the courtyard where he was retreating. Some people will do a handstand in order to meditate, but he hangs upside down on a tree like this, and it is the first time Long Yi has seen him.

"You're hanging on this tree, aren't you afraid of crushing the branches?" Long Yi said.

Ji Xiaobai has not spoken to anyone since the beginning of the retreat. He can hear the wind, he can hear the birds, but he can't hear the human voice. He jumped from the tree, his body very light, almost silent.

Long Yi has been snubbed by him many times recently, and he has long been used to it, so he stepped forward to grab Ji Xiaobai and said, "You have been in retreat recently, do you have any experience?"

Ji Xiaobai didn't bother to pay attention to him, and stood in place with his eyebrows lowered, as if he was an old monk.

"Blame me for talking too much, what can you come up with with this brain? You have been in retreat in name for the past few days, but in fact you are lazy?"

The only thing that answered him was the wind.

"Don't ignore people every time! Let me think about what you've been up to lately. Are you struggling to eat cabbage or tofu every day, how long have you not eaten roast chicken?"

Ji Xiaobai originally planned to ignore him, but he was really unbearable, so he finally got rid of him and walked back on his own. There is a mechanism in his courtyard, which is the door of the dormitory, and if he doesn't want people to enter, then no one else can enter.

The origin of that door is unusual, it was made by the third master at his request to the most famous master of the organ in Daning. Because at that time, Ji Xiaobai sleepwalked at night, saying that someone was peeking at him.

He was mentally immature, especially when he was a child. In order to let him rest well, the third master made the door for him. It's also strange to say, since he had that door, Ji Xiaobai has never said anything like that.

Long Yi was afraid that Ji Xiaobai would lock him out, so didn't he come for nothing this time? He said loudly before Ji Xiaobai entered the house: "The third master has found a sword for you, it is said that it can compete with the icebreaker, do you want it?"

Ji Xiaobai was stunned when he heard his words, looking a little naïve, as if he was still digesting the meaning of Long Yi's words just now.

Long Yi thought that what the third master was looking for must be a good thing, although he cherished his sword very much, he was also a little red-eyed. The third master always has a special preference for this guy.

"I've already told you anyway, it's all up to you if you want it or not. If you don't like it, then you might as well cheapen me!"

Ji Xiaobai glared at him fiercely, and said in a rough voice: "I really want everyone in our house to come over and see what you look like now!"

Long Yi was puzzled: "What's wrong with me?"

"You're the same as a resentful woman in the deep palace. ”

After Ji Xiaobai finished speaking, he dodged and left. Long Yi was stunned for a moment before he started chasing him, and the two of them were fighting along the way, attracting the sideways glances of the people passing by.

"Can you pay attention to your image?" Ye Bing got a piece of grass out of nowhere, and he was holding it in his mouth.

"Why are you here too?" Ji Xiaobai wanted to go to the study to see Ji Hongye, but he was going to see the baby, so naturally he didn't want others to follow.
