The voice of the palace master of the Xuan Palace became ethereal, as if it was suspended in mid-air, and the person who was still standing in front of him just now had disappeared without a trace at some point.

"Is this a trick?"

"The kung fu of the Nine Heavens Xuan Palace has always been mysterious."

Xiao Qing, who had been silent by Gao Weihu's side, suddenly spoke, her delicate brows tightened, "County Lord, the secret door and the Nine Heavens Xuangong are completely connected, it seems that we are going to be in trouble too." ”

"This trouble was originally aimed at the county lord."

Gao Weihu said in a deep voice, his eyes didn't dare to fall on the blood stain on the ground, "Xiaoqing, do you think Xiaolan will be a traitor?" ”

"The slave doesn't know."

Xiaoqing was born in the Qingtian League, and knows how cruel all sects and factions are to traitors, if they are not severely punished, some people will follow suit, and then the world will be in chaos.

"County Lord, the Nine Heavens Xuan Palace has its own rules, so let's not worry about it."

"That's it."

Gao Weihu shook his head helplessly, and walked out of the firewood room, "Our own troubles have not been solved yet, even if the county lord wants to mix in the housework of the Nine Heavens Xuan Palace, I am afraid that there will be no time!" ”

“……”

Xiaoqing didn't say anything more, but looked at the lonely back of Gao Weihu, and couldn't help but feel a little more worried in her heart.

……

The matter of the secret door assassin was not publicized to the outside world, and the Wolf City Palace did not panic because of this.

Everyone was caught in the joy of the flowing water banquet, and I don't know why the Queen Mother would make a big move to hold such a large-scale banquet.

But Gao Weihu is sure that the Queen Mother must be a drunkard, or it is to entrap the forces of Wolf City, after all, as soon as the city lord of Wolf City dies, there will inevitably be a new city lord who will take office.

Otherwise, they want to do something while the chaos is in chaos, or rather, the Queen Mother and the Taifu really want to go together!

"Look at you guys who are not quick to do things, it's been a few days, it's just a matter of tying some red lanterns, how hard can it be?!"

Gao Weihu passed by outside the courtyard of the palace, and heard Cui Mama's reprimand coming from inside, Xiaoqing just wanted to go over to take a look, but was stopped by his own master.

Hush!

She put her finger to her mouth, made a silent gesture, and peered out of the hospital.

"These red lanterns are the Queen Mother's favorite, if you don't do this job beautifully, you won't even want to go back to Beijing one by one, just stay in the palace and guard it!"

"Mama Cui, we minions have been working day and night for several nights, but this red lantern has been pierced one by one and destroyed the other, and we haven't been able to make a decent one until now!"

The little eunuch who spoke trembled and knelt on the ground, his hands propped up at his sides, his body prostrate on the cold stone floor, and raised his hand to point to a puddle of burnt red paper piled up in the corner of the wall.

And after listening to the words of the little eunuch, Mama Cui looked in the direction of his finger, and her face couldn't help but be shocked, "The destruction of the red lantern is not a good omen!" ”

Mama Cui sighed helplessly, and just wanted to say something more, when she heard Gao Weihu's voice coming in from outside the courtyard, "This is a good day, but why is there so much yin in this courtyard?" ”

Gao Weihu looked around with a worried look, and the corners of his mouth hooked a chilling smile, "Xiaoqing, it seems that this wolf city lord is really wronged, and even the emperor's palace can break into it at will, it is really a terrible ghost!" ”

"Not really! County Lord, we have to be careful when we go out in the future. ”

Xiaoqing smiled and accosted on the side, their master and servant are really tacit understanding, you and I say one sentence, but this impossible thing is true.

And the eunuchs in the miscellaneous courtyard who were hiding on the side were so frightened by Gao Weihu that they were about to faint, and they got together in twos and threes, looking at it was very funny, without that thing, even the courage was not as strong as a real man.

"County Lord, why do you say that this powerful ghost can't get along with the Queen Mother's red lantern, could it be that the person who killed the city lord is the Queen Mother?"

"Bah, you can't just talk about that."

Gao Weihu flicked a finger on Xiaoqing's forehead, and looked at Mama Cui with an apologetic face, "Mama Cui, my girl usually speaks openly, that is, she just talks casually, not because she has a mistake, and I ask Mama Cui to forgive me." ”

"Where is this what the county lord of Gao Weihu said, how can the old slave be like you, but if this word reaches the ears of the queen mother, it will be really troublesome."

Cui Mama knows in her heart that Gaowei Lake will be the future queen mother, and after the northern tour, she will be canonized and officially moved into Weiyang Palace

Therefore, this old thing is very shrewd, knowing that even if the queen mother is living a long life, she will definitely not be able to survive this new queen.

"County Lord, this place is so messy, how did you get here?"

Mama Cui obviously didn't want to mention the red lantern again, and she didn't know if she was weak or afraid that there would be a powerful ghost asking for her life.

But Gao Weihu will never let Grandma Cui talk so easily, the reason why she appeared at this moment is that she feels that there must be something strange about this red lantern, and it is necessary to find out.

"Mama Cui, the county lord was ordered by the queen mother to host a flowing water banquet, and the county lord has to be busy up and down, and a lot of bits and pieces of work are in the hands of the rough servants in the miscellaneous courtyard, and the county lord can't rest assured, so I'm here to take a look."

"I see, the county lord is really bothered."

Mama Cui dragged the little girl beside her sideways and saluted, and then greeted her with a smile on her face, "County Lord, the Queen Mother has been talking about you these days, but you can't go over for some time." ”

"Hey! It's not because the county lord is so busy, after the flowing water banquet, the county lord will definitely go to the queen mother to ask for guilt! ”

"Why do you want to ask for sin, the county lord is really serious, you can go over, the queen mother must be very happy."

She's happy?!

Gao Yuhu snorted coldly in his heart, this old woman wished that she would disappear into this world quickly, so as not to worry about her all day long.

Yes!

Before Gao Weihu could say anything more, he heard a scream coming from the direction of the well, and everyone followed the sound to look over, only to see wisps of black smoke coming out of the well.

"Is it really haunted in broad daylight?"

Gao Weihu said in a low voice, and then scolded Xiaoqing beside him, "You go over and take a look, the county lord is curious, how this ghost got the black smoke out from underneath!" ”

"Yes."

Xiaoqing is a person who practices martial arts, licking blood on the tip of the knife, naturally very bold, never believing that there are any ghosts in this world, if there is, she is afraid that she has long been haunted by powerful ghosts, how can she live well?

She pulled out the long sword at her waist, tensed her nerves, and approached the well that kept emitting black smoke, only to feel that the smell was slightly familiar, as if it was ......

"Flint medicine!"

That's right! It's flint medicine!

The fire in the mansion of the city lord of Wolf City was burned by flint powder, and the fire was not easy to extinguish, and it had a bright blue light, so it was mistaken for a heavenly fire.

"County Lord, there seems to be something underground!"

Xiaoqing leaned towards the wellhead, and as soon as he fixed his eyes, he gasped in fright, "It's a person!" ”

As soon as she said this, she caused a sigh all around, and the eunuchs, who were already frightened and almost overwhelmed, all went into the house one by one.

And Gao Weihu always looked calm, walked to the well, and sure enough, he saw a corpse floating on the water, "Let's get people up first, and then find out the identity!" ”

"Yes."

……

In this palace, there will be people who disappear every once in a while, and most of them will go down to play chess with Lord Yama, so someone dies inexplicably, for the people in the harem, it is just commonplace.

When the eunuch and palace maid have nothing to do, they will occasionally say a couple of sentences, and after a long time, no one will mention it again.

However......

"County Lord, this matter can be regarded as completely spreading, the emperor's ......"

"I've heard the news early in the morning."

Xiaoqing recklessly walked in from outside the courtyard, and didn't see Beitang Jinyu sitting on the soft couch, only staring at Gaowei Lake, who had just come out from behind the screen.

As he spoke, he walked to Gao Weihu's side with a stunned expression, "Elder Qiu of Medicine Valley, why did you go to Wolf City to do a small job, isn't this a condescending talent?" ”

Medicine Valley?!

Elder Qiu?!

Beitang Jinyu's words completely confused Gao Weihu, and his delicate brows wrinkled even more, "What the hell is going on?" Didn't you say that you have to be busy with government affairs, why did you come here again? ”

"I lied to you, if I don't say that, how can Elder Qiu show up?"

The news network of the Nine Heavens Xuangong extends in all directions, but whenever there is a little movement in the rivers and lakes, it will immediately reach the ears of the Xuangong Palace Master.

And she sent it to Beitang Jinyu in the form of a secret letter, so that even if he lived in the desert city, he could still know the movements of the world.

Ha ha......

Before he could complain at the exit of Gaowei Lake, Elder Qiu burst out laughing, "It is worthy of a generation of young emperors, it really makes the old man admire!" ”

"The elder has won the prize."

The corners of Beitang Jinyu's mouth hooked a vague smile, even Gao Weihu, who has always been the best at figuring out his thoughts, doesn't know what this guy is calculating at the moment.

"Elder Qiu, although the city lord of Wolf City is full of evil, he is a first-class courtier of the desert after all, even if he really wants to deal with it, he has to take action, right?"

As he spoke, he secretly turned the iron bamboo fan in his hand, each fan bone had a mechanism, and it was extremely exquisitely made.

"There are thousands of people up and down the mansion of the city lord of Wolf City, and he is the only one who deserves to die, why should so many people be buried with him?"

"Brother Hydrangea, what did you just say?"

Gao Weihu looked at Beitang Jinyu in surprise, and then his gaze fell on Elder Qiu, who didn't know what he looked like, "It's those people you killed, why did you do this?" And why blame Nine

Tianxuan Palace? ”

"Lord Gao Weihu, haven't you already guessed the reason for the incident? Why do you have to pretend to know nothing in front of the old man? ”

Elder Qiu has always been quick to speak, he will say whatever comes to mind, and he will never beat around the bush, "County Lord, I have already reached a consensus with the Palace Lord of Xuangong Palace, the matter of the Wolf City City Lord's Mansion was originally conspired by the two of them, in order to blame the Queen Mother!" ”

He doesn't shy away from it at all, he is really a person in the rivers and lakes, and he has always been happy to be revenge.

"The Queen Mother is rampant and domineering, conniving at her relatives to do all kinds of evil, if she keeps this woman, she will only let the desert world be ruined by her hands!"

Elder Qiu said loudly, then took out a bright yellow fold from his arms, and handed it to Beitang Jinyu with both hands, "Jianghu affairs, Jianghu, this is a post given to you by the alliance leader, whether you go to the appointment or not, it depends on whether you have the courage to do so." ”

Beitang Jinyu took the post with the words "Martial Arts League", and his eyes, which were already bottomless, became even deeper at this moment, "The person who the alliance wants to see is not me, but the iron scholar of Hongmen!" ”
