After Qin Wuchen and Zhen Bei briefly discussed, they felt that the three of them seemed to be hiding something.

Zhen Bei stood in the position that the boss said, looked in that direction, and sure enough, she could see the situation inside the restaurant from here.

"Lord Qin, Tertel and Qi Ji'er had lunch there at that time?" Zhen Bei said suddenly.

Qin Wuchen stepped forward and said, "It's indeed there." ”

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Brother Gu, could it be that this Orion saw the deceased take out the demon's hand from here, and became greedy?" ”

Soon he shook his head again and said with a wry smile: "Although he has seen things in the restaurant here, it is impossible to hear what the other party said, so how can he know what it is, what it is for, and why would he take risks and kill people and seize treasures?" ”

Zhen Bei smiled slightly and said, "Yes, as Lord Qin said, it is indeed impossible to hear Tertel's conversation here, but you can see what is happening hidden in the corner of the restaurant. ”

Qin Wuchen was puzzled when he heard this, and said, "Brother Gu, what do you mean by this?" ”

Zhen Bei shook her head and said, "This is just a guess on my part, until the matter is confirmed, it's better not to have preconceived notions!" Right now, I'm going to take a trip to the restaurant, is Lord Qin going along? ”

The two were talking, and they had already left the inn.

Qin Wuchen glanced up at the sun in the sky, and it was immediately lunch time again, so he nodded and said, "It's okay, let's stop there to eat something!" ”

An hour later, Qin Wuchen sent someone to call the three of them to the official office again.

The first to arrive was the hunter, who was sleeping in the inn room, and was easily found by the officers and soldiers!

The second one to arrive was the shepherd surnamed Qi, who was in the monastery and meditating at the time he was found.

The last one to arrive was the prodigal son of the rivers and lakes surnamed Liu, and he still had a touch of excitement on his face.

It is reported that today I accidentally met the Six Princes on the street, and got his appreciation, and the officers and soldiers took a lot of effort to finally find out that he was invited, and the Six Princes' palace was a guest!

Qin Wuchen saw that the people had arrived, and he was promoted to the hall with the order.

The three of them were shocked when they saw this.

"Lord Qin, has the murderer been found?" Qi Mu is humane.

Qin Wuchen bowed his head lightly and said, "After some investigation and covert visits, we have indeed discovered who the murderer is?" ”

Hearing this, the three of them hurriedly looked around, but except for the officers and soldiers, only the three of them were present: "Where is the murderer?" ”

Qin Wuchen smiled faintly and said, "The murderer is among you?" ”

The three of them looked at each other.

A look of panic and annoyance flashed on Qi Muren's face: "Lord Qin, what do you mean by this?" If the three of us are murderers, why do we have to shout to catch the thief many times? After committing the murder, he simply fled! ”

Liu Xiake also put away the smug look on his face, and sneered: "We are walking with Brother Qi all the way, if we want to kill him, wouldn't it be better to do it in the deep mountains and old forests as soon as possible, God doesn't know it!" Why do you choose to kill people in the imperial city where there are many people? ”

Even the taciturn Orion opened his mouth to defend himself, saying, "As you adults often say, murder requires a motive!" The four of us had already agreed on the cost of the journey, and there was no money dispute, so why would we kill someone for a few taels of silver? ”

Qin Wuchen waited for them to say enough, and Fang said: "If the motive for killing people is not because of money?" ”

Seeing that the faces of the three of them were changing, he looked at the hunter and said, "You might as well tell you what interesting things you saw yesterday in front of the inn window and looking at the fragrant restaurant?" ”

A flash of panic flashed in the hunter's eyes, and his gaze involuntarily wandered to the person beside him, and he reluctantly smiled: "Lord Qin said that I laughed, I did stand in front of the window for a while that day, but I didn't pay attention to any restaurants, let alone see Qi Ji'er and them!" ”

Qin Wuchen's eyes froze, and he said, "This official has never said that Qi Ji'er and they appeared in Xiangmanlou, how could you know about this?" ”

Orion's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and did not speak.

Qin Wuchen sneered and said, "Let this official say it for you." Yesterday afternoon, you saw Qi Ji'er and a gorgeously dressed boy walking into the Xiangmanlou Restaurant, perhaps out of curiosity, so you have been paying attention to their every move.

At the same time, you also have other discoveries, such as the unknown object that Qi Ji'er took out, such as another acquaintance sitting not far from them! ”

Orion was shocked when he heard this, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and he said in surprise: "You have the power of foreknowledge, how can you know this?" ”

Qin Wuchen sneered: "As for how this official knows all this, it is not difficult for Your Excellency to understand. Explain why you shielded the man and concealed everything he saw. ”

"I promised him that once he could realize his wish to soar and flourish, he would be allowed to share the glory and wealth!" Liu Xiake said for him.

Seeing that everyone's eyes fell on him, he smiled fearlessly and said, "Yesterday, I sat in the teahouse for a while, and because it was too noisy, I came to the street and walked around at will. When I passed by the restaurant, I happened to see Qi Ji'er and the noble son walking in hand in hand.

To tell the truth, I didn't have the slightest interest in what Buddhist scriptures and enlightenment, at the beginning, one was because I was avoiding the pursuit of the enemy, and the other was because I heard that they were going to Fengyang, the imperial city of the hometown of wealth, so they would join in.

I thought to myself at the time, that Qi Ji'er is obviously a wizard pretending to be a ghost, and he talks about the Buddha all day long, and looks like a common man. But it turned out that the reality was the same as below, thinking about the wealth and glory of the brocade clothes and jade food, and even climbed the noble man behind his back!

After thinking about it, I bought a hat from the old man who sold a hat on the side of the road to cover my face, and quietly followed them in, and sat down next to them. Hmph, but I never thought that I heard a big secret! ”

Qin Wuchen shouted coldly: "That's why you killed that Qi Ji'er and won the hand of that demon!" ”

Everyone present was shocked, and the Qi Shepherd heard it in a fog: "What is the hand of the devil?" ”

Zhen Bei explained for him: "It is an evil thing that can be traded with the devil, and it is precisely because of this that Qi Ji'er will hide it from you and not want you to know about the existence of this thing!" ”

Qi Muren was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then his face changed greatly, and said, "Liu Daxia, Brother Qi really has to be killed by you?" Brother Qi is compassionate, although he realizes that your purpose is not pure, he still hopes that you can become a Buddha on the ground, so that you will be allowed to walk with us! Since you will take revenge, you will kill him for the evil thing. ”

Liu Xiake looked at him with complicated eyes, suddenly laughed a few times, and said: "It seems that among the four of us, there is only you, Brother Qi, who is truly committed to the Buddha!" Do you really think that Qi Ji'er is a good person? He came to Fengyang City, where is he really to seek Buddha! ”

Qi Muren was shocked and angry: "What do you mean by this? ”

Liu Xiake sneered and said, "Although I, Liu Li, am not a good person, I also ask myself if I am not the one who kills innocents indiscriminately!" Last night, I saw with my own eyes that you, a good man of Qi Da, infiltrated an official house, moved a young lady to a courtyard of Hanmen Academy, and passed on a stolen thing using a letter eagle, I don't know who it was sent to!

I thought about what had happened during the day, and finally understood the real purpose of this Qiji'er's coming here. Since he wasn't a good person, I didn't have any worries, and went straight to him and asked him for the demon's hand.

He obviously didn't expect it, I kept watching him in the dark, and you can probably guess what happened next. He was worried that I would leak it out, and he had murderous intent on me. Just as he was about to cast a spell, I struck ahead of him and killed him!

I searched for the demon's hand from him, and took out the silver taels that were left of him, intending to walk away. But when he saw the wooden plaque he had stolen, he suddenly changed his mind again! ”

Zhen Bei said eagerly: "You said, in addition to the wooden card, Qi Ji'er also took other things from Tetel, but can you see what it is?" ”

Liu Xiake sneered: "If I tell you, will I be let go directly?" ”

Zhenbei's face sank, and said, "If you don't say it, the sin will be one more degree!" ”

Liu Xiake disagreed, and said: "Hehe, scare me into being a three-year-old doll!" The hand of the devil has played a role, and the six princes have promised to get an errand for me, I advise you to be more interesting, everyone will be colleagues in the future, and you will not see you when you look up! ”

When Qin Wuchen heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "I'm afraid Liu Xiake doesn't know that although the sixth prince is the king of Nie Zheng right now, he has no ability to serve as an official!" And if the Son of Heaven breaks the law, he should be guilty of the same crime as the common people, let alone you? ”

Liu Xiake looked at him in surprise, seeing that his expression was serious and not like a joke, and finally his face showed a trace of panic, thinking of the magic of the treasure, he was relieved again: "It's okay to tell you, what Qi Ji'er asked Xinying to take away is a jade pendant-like thing!" ”

When Zhenbei and Tetel, who had been released from captivity, rushed back to Hanmen Academy, Martha was anxiously circling in circles in the courtyard, and Peony and others on the side continued to comfort her.

Seeing that Tetel had returned safely, several people were overjoyed.

"Martha! Go and find it, but my Prince's Great Seal is still there? Tertre rushed into the courtyard and said in a hurry.

Martha was stunned at first, then nodded, ran into the chamber, and after a while, shouted in a panic: "Oh no, the Great Seal is gone!" ”

The Great Seal is a symbol of status, although the Prince's Seal is not as authoritative as the King's Jade Seal, but in many things, there is still the right to choose, once it falls into the hands of impure wicked people, there will be uncontrollable serious consequences.

Tertel followed Zhenbei's advice and hurriedly sent an urgent letter to the imperial grandfather, informing him of the loss of the Great Seal, so as to cut off its role as much as possible before it had a bad effect.

Not long after, Terter received a reply from the emperor's grandfather, saying that he had ordered the declaration of the Prince's Seal to be invalid, and a heavy reward was offered to the person holding the Prince's Seal!

There seems to be no follow-up to this matter, and the prince's seal seems to have evaporated in the world, and it has never appeared again.

Along with the Prince's Seal, the Demon Hand also disappeared!

The day after Liu Xiake was imprisoned, he was found bleeding to death in the cell, and he did not find the demon's hand on his body at the beginning, and he kept his mouth shut about the location of the evil thing.
