Chapter 553: Investigation
Duanmu Wei guessed what Qi Hufei was going to do and wanted to dissuade her, but remembering the words on the note left by Dong Yue, the words came to her mouth and swallowed back.
She only shook Qi Feifei's hand vigorously and said, "Be careful." ”
Qi Feifei nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'm measured." Don't tell your grandfather and your father about this matter first, I don't want to drag your family into the water. ”
Duanmuwei said: "Xiaoxue just said that the person who came to find Dongyue mentioned the 'Key to the Holy Palace' and the 'Niangniang Relic', so it can't be said that it has something to do with our family, how can it be said that it is dragging us down?" ”
Qi Hufei then remembered that the Duanmu family was an authentic descendant of the royal family, and the Niangniang of the Golden Sacred Palace was their ancestor, so the so-called Niangniang relics were naturally inseparable from them. Last time in Qilin Mountain, didn't they know the location of the real hedgehog cave from the notes left by the mother of the Golden Saint Palace. But what is the key to the holy palace and the relics of the mother that the man is talking about? The Duanmu family, as the descendant of the mother of the Golden Sacred Palace, has developed in Nalan City for more than a thousand years, how could they not know?
"If you want to talk about it, you can only tell your grandfather first, and don't say anything to the rest of the people, including your father." Qi Hufei knew that it was not realistic for Duanmu Wei to hide from her family all the time, "I'm afraid that there will be some big people involved behind this matter, and once your family falls into it, it will be difficult to clean up." Director Qin just asked me to convey to your father the wish that it would be best for Nalan City not to have an accident during his transition period, and if your father gets involved in these disputes at this time, it will easily cause misunderstanding. You'd better not say anything until you meet your grandpa. ”
"But when you go on an adventure alone, I always feel uneasy." Duanmuwei said.
Qi Hufei smiled and comforted: "What's there to worry about, is there anything I've done in the past six months that is not safe?" ”
Duanmuwei thought about it, and indeed there was no unsafe past, so she said: "I can naturally trust you to do things, but I'm afraid that you will be irrational for a while because of Dongyue." ”
Qi Hufei said: "If I weren't rational, I wouldn't have told you so much. Well, so be it. You bring Xiaoxue back first, just treat it as your newly recruited employee, and put it in your new company to use, and when everything is settled, I will take her to Pansiling. ”
Duanmuwei knew that it was useless to talk more, so she took Xiaoxue and Qi Hufei out together, and when they arrived outside the noble village, Xiaoxue got into Duanmuwei's car and left.
Qi Hufei didn't worry about them, and followed them incognito all the way, until they arrived at the Duanmu family's manor, and then they relaxed their hearts.
Then he immediately called Qin Yubai and asked to see him. Qin Yubai knew that he must have something important to look for him so late, so he didn't ask more on the phone, only said that he was still meeting guests, and asked him to find a place and inform him in an hour.
Qi Hufei knew that Qin Yubai didn't want to go to Chunyue Tower again, as the director of the local City God Division, going to a restaurant with a lot of Fengyue twice in one day would inevitably cause criticism.
But since there was still an hour to go, Qi Hufei went back to the Spring Moon Tower alone. First, he wanted to know something through Chunyue, and secondly, it was necessary to tell Chunyue what Pan Zimo had arrived.
Seeing him turn around late at night, Chunyue led him upstairs with a smile and asked, "Why did you come back?" Are you going to Ghost City tonight, or are you going to stay with me? ”
Qi Hufei said: "I will leave after a few words." ”
Seeing that he had a serious face and didn't mean to joke, Chunyue took him to the attic, and the two sat opposite each other, without serving wine or making tea.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Harutsuki asked.
"Pan Zimo has arrived." Qi Hufei said.
"You've already told you about it during the day. How do you say it again? Chunyue couldn't help but be curious, "Could it be that you have already met just now?" ”
Qi Hufei nodded and said, "Not only have we met, but we have also passed the trick." ”
Chunyue was shocked: "Could it be that he already suspects you?" Suddenly, he looked at Qi Jufei with a puzzled look, "I heard that Pan Zimo is a seventh-grade, even if the rumors are wrong, at least it is the realm of a half-step heavenly immortal!" ”
Qi Hufei knew what she was wondering about, and said: "Yes, the strength is very strong, if I hit it hard, I may not be able to take his move." But I made a bet with him, and if he couldn't kill me within three moves, he owed me a life. This person is different from the rest of the Miyun Sect, and he should be trustworthy. I'm not afraid of him now, but he should come for you, and you have to be careful. ”
Chunyue looked at Qi Hufei's eyes with a slight strange look: "I really admire you, you have surprised too many people in the past six months." I remember when you first came to Nalan City, Liang Ming of the City God Division still wanted to calculate you and make you the wrongdoer. As a result, you don't even lose the door, so that he will have a feeling of sympathy for you and a chess opponent. But I didn't expect that in just a short time, you have done so many great things, and you have become a heroic model named above, from a small temporary worker, to a deputy director, and you are about to become a local governor. ”
Qi Hufei said: "What is there to admire about this, it's just some flies and dogs' skills, which are not enough to worry about." ”
Chunyue said: "What I admire is not your management style of promotion in officialdom, but your stubbornness and tenacity. You can always rise up in adversity, see hope in despair, and persist in doing it. On the surface, you are a dog, you don't do your job, and you have to calculate every penny, but how can that be the real you? Faced the snake demon in Qilin Mountain, took the initiative to lead the snake out of the hole, faced the demon in Honggu County, slashed Zhao Chun in Si'an, rushed into the demon array to face the bite of ten thousand mosquitoes and assassinated the ninth master, fought the bat demon in Qijiaoze, and paid ...... These things were not nine deaths and one life, let alone doing them all, or encountering one, it was not easy to do what you did. It is said that you are lucky, and the credit is all picked up, and it is all the envy of others, and it is just that they are jealous. When people are jealous, their eyes will inevitably be gray, and they will not be able to see anything clearly. In front of the Seven-Rank Sword Immortal, not only can he pick up a life, but also make the opponent owe a life, how can it be so simple as luck! ”
"Do you see clearly?" Qi Hufei asked with a smile.
"I thought I could see it." Chunyue stared at him seriously, "But if you think about it carefully, I have to admit that I still can't see through you." ”
Qi Hufei said: "Actually, even I can't see through myself. I don't even know why I'm here! ”
Chunyue smiled: "What kind of problem are you, do you want to be a philosopher?" ”
But seeing that Qi Hufei didn't mean to joke, he also put away his smile.
"Say, what's the matter, you came back not just to tell me that Pan Zimo is here."
Qi Hufei had to admit that Chunyue was a smart person. Dealing with smart people is sometimes tiring, and sometimes it's relaxing.
"I heard that there is a big man in Nalan City......" Qi Feifei said tentatively, but seeing Chunyue's face as usual, he knew that she had known it for a long time. It seems that you all know that I am alone. ”
Chunyue said: "I opened a restaurant here to facilitate the search for news. If I don't even know that the envoy sent by Heavenly Court has arrived, then I don't need to open this restaurant. As for you not knowing, it's actually normal, your foundation is in Pansiling, and you went to other places a while ago. Besides, this doesn't have much to do with you, does it? ”
Qi Feifei nodded, and didn't ask any more. Regarding the matter of this angel, he felt that it was more reliable to ask Qin Yubai. As a middle-level staff member of the Chenghuang Division, it is more normal to ask the proprietress of Chunyue Tower about everything related to angels, so that people know that there is a problem, so it is better to ask Qin Yubai directly, making people mistakenly think that he wants to tie up with his boss, which seems more normal.
"Is there any movement in the mahjong club recently?" He changed the subject.
"Aren't you and Director Qin talking about this during the day?" Chunyue didn't understand that Qi Hufei could ask about the movement of the mahjong again, so she looked at him puzzled.
Qi Hufei said: "I know about the recent expansion of mahjong, but that is a common thing for gangs to compete for power. I want to ask you if the God of Wealth has been doing anything lately? ”
Chunyue said: "He came once two days ago, saying that he wanted me to prepare to receive a distinguished guest. But ......"
Qi Hufei remained silent, and he could almost confirm in his heart that the one who forced Dongyue to accompany the big man was the God of Wealth.
"But what?"
Chunyue was silent for a few seconds, as if she was hesitating whether she should say something, and finally made up her mind again, saying: "You also know that I am not free in this body, and after being in Chunyue Tower for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be some wind and dust on my body." The God of Wealth said that the guest likes elegance, so I am not the best candidate. Pomegranate eight flowers, spring, summer, autumn and winter, plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum, at least three people are more suitable than me. I think the God of Wealth will go to them first. If they don't serve well, they will come to me. ”
"Which three?" Qi Jufei asked.
"Autumn moon, winter moon, plum blossoms." Chunyue said, "Among them, Dongyue is the best, whether it is talking about knowledge, temperament and charm, or appearance, Dongyue can come out on top among the eight flowers of the pomegranate, and even I am convinced." ”
She couldn't help but glance at Qi Hufei, and a trace of sourness suddenly appeared in her heart.
"If Mr. Qi wants to go to Dongyue, you might as well ask the eldest lady of the Duanmu family to draw a line for you, they are good sisters. Although I am also one of the eight flowers of the sea pomegranate, and I am the first in April, but the winter moon girl is probably disdainful of being with me, so I will not help you introduce it. ”
Qi Feifei ignored the faint vinegar in Chunyue's words and asked, "If Dongyue can't accompany you, who do you think the God of Wealth will choose?" ”
Chunyue was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding why Qi Hufei was so interested in this topic, and when she suggested that he go to Duanmu Wei to get close to Dongyue, she didn't see how happy he was, did he actually want to use the data of the sea pomegranate for himself?
"It's possible for both of them." Chunyue finally suppressed those strange thoughts in her heart, "The autumn moon is elegant, the closest to the winter moon, but the description is too indifferent and rejects people thousands of miles away. As for plum blossoms, there is no problem with image temperament. He and she are entertainment stars, her stage name is Yizhimei, known as Sister Mei, if you watch TV and follow the entertainment industry, you should know her. But she has a strong personality, and she can be regarded as out of the mud in the entertainment industry, and because of this, she has not become popular, otherwise with her qualifications, she would have become a national idol long ago. ”
Qi Hufei said: "Is there an address for the two of them, give me one." ”
Chunyue hesitated slightly, but quickly took out her mobile phone, edited a message, and sent it to Qi Feifei.
Qi Jufei glanced at it and asked again: "The God of Wealth is looking for you about this?" ”
Harutsuki said, "That's it. ”
Qi Hufei nodded, didn't ask anything more, and got up to leave.
Chunyue knew that his question just now would never be for no reason, there must be something, since Qi Hufei didn't explain, she didn't ask much, so she sent him out, but the more she thought about it, the more confused she felt, so that the people in the store didn't hear her call.
Qi Feifei saw that the time was almost up, so he called Qin Yubai and made an appointment to meet at the café at the Golden Saint Palace Hotel.
The café at the Golden Palace Hotel is very quiet because it is expensive and there are usually few people, and it is late at night, so there are usually few people who come to drink coffee at this time.
Qi Feifei found a corner by the window, his divine sense swept over, and after making sure that there was nothing abnormal around, he ordered two cups of coffee and waited for Qin Yubai to arrive.
Qin Yubai came quickly, and as soon as the waiter brought two cups of coffee, he arrived.
"What's the matter with being so anxious to find me?" Qin Yubai sat down and held the coffee cup with both hands, "I was just accompanying a distinguished guest." ”
Qi Hufei asked, "Is it an angel who just came?" ”
Qin Yubai said: "It's been two days. ”
Qi Hufei asked again: "In addition to angels, have there been any other big names in Nalan City in the past few days?" ”
Qin Yubai said: "An angel has already made me anxious, what other big man do you need?" ”
Qi Feifei lowered his head and took a sip of coffee. Duanmu Family, Chunyue Tower, and Chenghuang Division, all three aspects prove that except for angels, there are no other big people to come to Nalan City, so it is basically certain that the big man that the God of Wealth wants Chunyue to accompany is this angel.
"Director, can you tell me about this angel?"
Qin Yubai looked at him and frowned: "You came out of me so late just to ask this?" ”
Qi Hufei knew that he must have misunderstood, thinking that he wanted to cling to the angel's relationship through him. Thinking that it was useless to show off in front of this old leader, it would be self-defeating, so it was better to get straight to the point, so he explained:
"Director, I was picked up by you, you have helped me a lot when I was in Honggu County, and the relationship that should be introduced has also been given to me, even Director Xinhuan, you are not stingy to bring it to Pansiling, and set the development plan of Pansiling, and let me participate in the sect conference, I am already grateful, how can I still think of going to Nalan City to cling to the relationship of angels? It's really important to me, so instead of asking around, I'd better ask you directly. ”
The expression on Qin Yubai's face relaxed, and he asked, "What is it that makes you need to ask me in such a hurry, is it about the appointment of your promotion?" ”
Qi Feifei said: "It is purely a private matter and has nothing to do with official affairs. I can't explain it to you right now. ”
Seeing that he refused to speak, Qin Yubai gently stirred it in the coffee cup with a spoon, and after a moment of silence, he said, "What you want to know, as long as it doesn't involve secrets and doesn't violate discipline, I can tell you." ”
Qi Hufei said, "I want to know everything about this angel, his official position, his background, and the purpose of coming here...... Tell me everything you can say. ”
Qin Yubai said: "It's not a secret. This angel's name is Ouyang Chengliang, and his position is the commissioner of the Unified Office Coordination Committee of the Three Realms. The purpose of coming to Nalan City this time is mainly for the smooth transition of power during this time, the things in Si'anli have shaken the above, and the Mofu may appear at any time, and an angel at this time can greatly reduce my pressure. But on the other hand, if there are angels, I have to be more cautious, so I will let you remind the Duanmu family and the Wang family. Of course, even if Lao Duanmu has been with me for the past few days, he knows it very well in his heart. But I can't say it to his face, so that's why I let you say it. ”
Qi Feifei asked again: "What strength does this commissioner have, and how high is his mana?" ”
Qin Yubai was stunned for a moment and said, "This is not an ordinary commissioner, and it is not the same level as the Tula Weng sent by the Zhou Prefecture at the beginning. He is an authentic angel, and he also has the title of Heavenly Monarch in Heavenly Court, called the Heavenly Monarch of Hundred Changes, and he served in Heavenly Court more than a hundred years ago. How high is the mana of a person of this level, where do I know where to go? Do you remember that he is a heavenly immortal, a heavenly immortal, of course, it is the beginning of the seventh grade. ”
