Yi Jiuxiao was suddenly startled, he could think that it was the Guan family who was framing Xuan Zhongchun, and Emperor Chen should be able to imagine it.

Emperor Chen imprisoned Xuan Zhongchun so hastily, there seems to be something hidden in this!

Thinking of this, Yi Jiuxiao had an idea, and then said, "Steward, do you need me to do something?"

Xuan Wen said with a bitter face: "I'm at a loss now, I don't know how to go to the Savior, what idea does Mr. Song have?"

"Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid. The steward doesn't need to be too anxious, I believe that although the emperor will detain the lord, he will definitely arrange for someone to investigate this matter, so we might as well wait and see what happens. ”

Xuan Wen shook his head helplessly, although he was not satisfied with Yi Jiuxiao's statement, but this was the case, and there was no other way to think about it, so he turned around and left Yi Jiuxiao's residence.

As soon as he walked to the door, Yi Jiuxiao suddenly stopped him and said, "Steward, if the emperor sends someone to Xuanfu to investigate today, can you inform me?"

"Oh, well, if anyone does investigate, I'll let you know. ”

Xuan Wen agreed, but he didn't believe that anyone would come.

There was nothing to do in the morning, Yi Jiuxiao didn't go out, and he had been practicing the magic technique in the room.

Just after noon, there was a sudden sound of a hurried trick outside the courtyard wall.

When I opened the door, it was Xuan Wen. I saw him hurriedly say: "Mr. Song, as you expected, someone came to the house to search, and I specially came to inform Mr. ”

"Lead the way, let's take a look. ”

Yi Jiuxiao has been in the Jixian Pavilion for so many days in Xuanfu, even if he meets with Xuan Zhongchun, he is still in the Jixian Pavilion.

Although Jixian Hall is separated from Xuanfu by a wall, I have never entered Xuanfu, so I don't know the path of Xuanfu.

While walking, Yi Jiuxiao asked, "Who is leading the team to search?"

"It's Lord Wei Liangjun Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of Law, who is now searching the study of the head of the family. ”

Although Xuan Wen was not in the officialdom, he was quite familiar with the officials in the imperial court.

"Is this Lord Wei a close confidant of Dazai?"

Xuan Wen shook his head and said, "This Lord Wei is neither a person from the Guan family nor a person from my Xuan family, he is a person from the emperor." ”

"That's good!"

As soon as he said this, Yi Jiuxiao's heart was settled, and he was afraid that this Lord Wei was Dazai's cronies. If so, then it would be of no use for him to go.

The two of them walked along Fuzhong Avenue until they came to the study.

I saw fifty sergeants gathered in the open space outside the study, and the momentum was solemn.

Master Shangshuwei of the Ministry of Justice was inspecting in the study at this time, and was not outside.

Xuan Zhongchun's wife Zhou Yue and the chief steward of the house stood outside on standby, and under Xuan Wen's introduction, Yi Jiuxiao stepped forward to greet his wife.

After a while, an official came out of the study, saying that Master Shangshu had invited his wife in.

Mrs. Xuan Zhou Yue took Yi Jiuxiao and the three of them into the study, she was a woman, and it was inconvenient to go in alone, so it was normal to take the steward.

As soon as he entered the door, Yi Jiuxiao saw Master Wei, who was cultivated in the later stage of Jindan, with a slightly dark complexion, raised eyebrows, and a very majestic appearance.

"I've seen Lord Shangshu!" Zhou Yue turned sideways and gave Wei Liangjun a salute.

Wei Liangjun raided before, and did not greet Mrs. Xuan and everyone in the house, but now they will meet after the search.

"Mrs. Xuan is so polite, it's really embarrassing!"

Wei Liangjun hurriedly returned the salute, before it was completely determined that Xuan Zhongchun was guilty, Mrs. Xuan was still Mrs. Yipin, and she could not be taken lightly.

Afterwards, Mrs. Xuan and Wei Liangjun sat down separately, while Yi Jiuxiao and the three stood aside.

Wei Liangjun got straight to the point and said what he meant: "The lower official was sent by the emperor to investigate the dean. Yesterday, the state city prison department caught a spy and confessed that it was related to the dean. Because of the importance of the matter, the emperor handed the case over to the lower officials for trial. Mrs. Xuan and everyone in the house are requested to cooperate with the investigation of the Ministry of Law. ”

"Lord Shangshu, the head of my family is wronged, the Xuan family has been loyal to the royal family for generations, how can he do anything to collaborate with the enemy. ”

Zhou Yue shouted injustice as soon as he opened his mouth, and tears came down for a while.

"You said you were wronged, what evidence is there?" Wei Liangjun replied expressionlessly.

Zhou Yue was suddenly a little stunned and speechless, where would there be evidence that proved that the head of the family Xuan Zhongchun was innocent.

The scene became silent for a while, and everyone was silent.

Suddenly, I saw Yi Jiuxiao take two steps forward, and after bowing deeply to Wei Liangjun, he said, "My lord, can you say something about the case?"

Wei Liangjun's gaze instantly fell on Yi Jiuxiao's body, this was a mortal, a complete mortal without mana.

"Lord Shangshu, this is Song Yi, the steward of my house. Zhou Yue explained.

Wei Liangjun nodded and said to Yi Jiuxiao, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Yi Jiuxiao saluted again and said, "Thank you, my lord! I think that the head of the family is innocent, and we can't prove it out of thin air." If adults can tell us the evidence of guilt, we can find evidence of the innocence of the head of the house. ”

Wei Liangjun thought in his heart, this Song Yi is not simple, and these words are the crux of the matter.

In fact, Wei Liangjun didn't want Xuan Zhongchun to be guilty from the bottom of his heart, after all, he was an important minister of Chen Guo.

That's why he came to Xuanfu, just to look for evidence, and Zhou Yue's stunned performance just now made him already have a judgment.

If Zhou Yue quickly came up with evidence of Xuan Zhongchun's innocence, then there were really some problems, and it was normal that he couldn't get it.

So Wei Liangjun looked at Yi Jiuxiao with a little playfulness and curiosity, and asked, "If I give proof of guilt, you can find evidence of innocence?"

"Lord Shangshu, that's the case, if you give evidence of guilt, I have a lot of confidence to find evidence of innocence. ”

"The spy caught by the state government prison department is a native of Yi Guoqing, and he carries with him a letter from Emperor Yi to the dean, and a ring containing a million medium-grade spirit stones, according to the letter, this is a reward for the dean. ”

Wei Liangjun said the key to the evidence in just a few words.

As soon as Yi Jiuxiao heard it, it was the same as what Xuan Wen had heard before, and he had a calculation.

"Lord Shangshu, has the authenticity of this letter ever been identified, is it really written by Emperor Yi? and has this spirit stone been identified, is it really a gift from Emperor Yi?"

Yi Jiuxiao raised two questions about the evidence, because he knew better than anyone that neither of these things came from Yi Guo.

However, when Wei Liangjun heard this, he was a little angry: "As for this letter, we can't distinguish the authenticity for the time being, because no one in Chen Guo can recognize the handwriting and seal of Emperor Yi. For the spirit stone, if you say that the identification is not from the Yi country, it is simply nonsense. ”

It is not unreasonable for Wei Liangjun to be angry, in his opinion, spirit stones can only identify grades, and this mortal does not understand spirit stones at all.

"My lord is angry, the cultivator has always paid attention to the amount of spiritual energy contained in the spirit stone, ignoring the others. But in the eyes of us mortals, the spirit stone is a stone, which is mined from the ore veins, and the color and texture of the ore veins may not be the same in various places, so they can still be distinguished. ”

When Wei Liangjun heard such an explanation, he felt that there was some truth.

He had never carefully observed the spirit stones, but only held them in his hands to cultivate, or traded them as currency.

"Can you identify spirit stones?" Wei Liangjun looked at Yi Jiuxiao, his gaze was very sharp.

Yi Jiuxiao nodded: "Can you give it a try?"

"Okay, I'll give you a chance to come with me to the Dharma Department. If you are talking nonsense, you will be punished. ”

After finishing speaking, Wei Liangjun stood up and left the Xuanfu with a group of people.

Xuan Wen and Yi Jiuxiao shared a carriage and followed closely behind.

Along the way, Xuan Wen was very nervous and uneasy, and he didn't seem to have much confidence, Yi Jiuxiao looked at it and secretly laughed.

How did Xuan Wen know that Yi Jiuxiao's boasting of Haikou was not untargeted, but very sure.

There are many spirit stones in Yi Jiuxiao's ring, some are from Qi State, some are from Wei State, some are from Zhou State, and some are from Ning State.

He once took out these spirit stones to study when he had nothing to do, trying to find out the secret of the spirit stones.

Naturally, the secret could not be found, and the spirit stone that was regarded as a treasure by the cultivator was just a stone in Yi Jiuxiao's eyes, without any breath.

However, Yi Jiuxiao still found that there are still differences in the spirit stones of various countries, which are reflected in color, texture, and hardness.

Among them, the spirit stones of the Zhou Kingdom are hard and black, and the spirit stones of the Qi Kingdom are soft and white......

These differences are not felt by cultivators, and when cultivators want to sense the spirit stones, the aura will come to their faces, covering everything.

The journey was not far, and after a quarter of an hour, he arrived at the lobby of the Ministry of Law, and Wei Liangjun asked, "Tell me about the conditions of your test?"

"My lord, you first take a few spirit stones from the spy ring and show me them, and then find the spirit stones of Chen Guo and the surrounding countries respectively, and let me choose among them to find out which one is the same as the one carried by the spy carrying. ”

Yi Jiuxiao emphasized again: "There is one point, the spirit stone you take must not be false and deranged. ”

"It's not difficult, I sent people to look for the merchants in the city, and the countries in the city of Jinzhou are traded, and they should be able to find it. ”

Afterwards, Yi Jiuxiao and Xuan Wen were arranged to rest in a room in the Ministry of Law, and they were not allowed to leave.

In the evening, a scribe came to call Yi Jiuxiao and Xuan Wen, and the two followed the scribe back to the lobby of the Ministry of Law.

Beneath the empty lobby, a row of tables was laid with black flannel.

Shangshu Wei Liangjun had arrived, sitting on a chair beside the table.

There were also two chairs, presumably seated by other officials from the Ministry of Justice.

The scribe took out a few spirit stones, put them on the table, and told Yi Jiuxiao that this was the spirit stone in the spy ring.

Yi Jiuxiao stood in front of the table, picked up a spirit stone, and looked at it carefully.

The light in the lobby is very bright, and the texture and texture of the spirit stone are very clear.

The size of this spirit stone is very standard, one inch square size, and the texture is delicate, but the shape is not regular, and the color is not bright.

Yi Jiuxiao looked at it again, and the texture of the spirit stone was yellowish, mixed with red lines.

At the same time, he gently pinched the spirit stone again and tested the hardness. With his fingers, he didn't dare to push too hard to prevent it from breaking.

After reading it, he picked up another piece, looked at it for a while, put it down, and nodded to the scribe and said, "I'm optimistic." ”
