Chapter 22: Fighting Spirits

Emperor Jing'an frowned, sighed heavily, and said seriously: "As a scholar, Zhou Ji has done his best to the imperial court for many years, and now he has unfortunately lost his son, I must always pay attention to it." What's more, daring to kill the son of an official of the imperial court is also a contempt for the royal law of the imperial court. I must be severely punished, and I am still very optimistic about the efficiency of the Imperial Jin Army's case-handling. ”

"Got it." Yan Qingyu replied angrily.

Seeing that he was reluctant, Emperor Jing'an glared at him, too lazy to bother with him.

In the entire Nanzhao Kingdom, except for Yan Qingyu, I am afraid that there is no second person who dares to ignore the domineering, ruthless and ruthless Emperor Jing'an like this.

Nangong Qi on the side pouted and snorted softly, rolling his eyes at Yan Qingyu. To say that there is no jealousy, that is false.

Emperor Jing An continued: "This morning, Zhou Ji personally entered the palace to cry to me, and I have comforted him to help him catch the real culprit and seek justice for his son. I have ordered the Ministry of Punishment to seal off Shangshu Mansion, you immediately take the Imperial Jin Army over to find out the real culprit as soon as possible, so as to comfort the pain of Zhou Xuan's deceased son. ”

"The minister immediately summoned the Imperial Jin Army to go to Shangshu Mansion." After Yan Qingyu finished speaking, before Emperor Jing'an nodded, he turned around and prepared to walk outside the hall without saying a word, but he heard Nangong Qi say in a loud voice: "Slow! ”

Yan Qingyu was stunned for a moment, her pupils sunken, and she turned her head to look at Nangong Qi in surprise.

"The Imperial Jin Army's case is indeed fast, but Xiao Wang is not convinced. Lord Yan, do you dare to gamble? Nangong Qi said.

"Qi'er, what are you messing around!" Emperor Jing'an turned his head and glared at Nangong Qi and scolded.

"Bet on what?" Yan Qingyu sneered and looked at Nangong Qi.

"Just bet on the case of the mysterious death of the second son of Master Shangshu Zhou Ji." The corners of Nangong Qi's mouth hooked up a touch of coldness, and he looked at Yan Qingyu intently, with a serious face, almost saying word by word: "Xiao Wang wants to extinguish the sharp spirit of the Imperial Jin Army!" ”

"Just you?" Yan Qingyu sneered, with a look of disdain, "Bet with you, I don't care about lowering my price!" ”

"Don't you dare?" Nangong Qi sneered, and slowly walked in front of Yan Qingyu, his eyes were full of contempt, "But Xiao Wang is determined to compare with Lord Yan, unless, Lord Yan doesn't dare." ”

Looking down at Nangong Qi's provocative eyes, Yan Qingyu's pupils shrank, and he spit out word by word: "Accompany you to the end." ”

"Okay." The corners of Nangong Qi's mouth hooked up with an evil smile.

"Presumptuous!" Emperor Jing'an on the side was extremely angry, and yelled at the two of them: "Have you made enough trouble, now that people's lives are at stake, people outside are panicking, and you still have the face to fight here!" ”

"Father, the son is serious. Erchen went out of Beijing this time and made a friend, and she has a talent for solving cases. Nangong Qi said.

"Your Majesty, since His Royal Highness the Seventh is so determined to destroy the spirit of the Imperial Jin Army, if this governor does not agree, won't it be a mouthful. The Governor wants to see where the Seventh Highness gets his confidence. Yan Qingyu said.

"Okay, I'll give you three days, if you can't solve the case within three days, you two should prepare me to be punished." Emperor Jing'an glared at the two fiercely, shook off the dragon robe violently, and turned around and walked towards the inner hall of the dormitory.

Wang Zhan, the chief eunuch, hurriedly followed.

In the hall, only Nangong Qi, who was hanging, and Yan Qingyu, who was arrogant, were left.

"Lord Yan, but there are only three days, why don't you take the Imperial Jin Army to investigate, lest you lose very badly when you get it!" Nangong Qi chuckled.

"Foolish dreams! I want to see what tricks His Highness the Seventh Highness is going to play! After Yan Qingyu finished speaking, he glanced at the smug Nangong Qi, and said, "You don't want to make trouble and deliberately delay time so that the governor will be punished, right?" ”

"Cut, Xiao Wang looks like that kind of person! Besides, after three days, if you can't solve the case, you won't be punished alone, and Xiao Wang won't be able to escape, so why bother asking for hardship. Nangong Qi clasped his hands in front of his chest.

Yan Qingyu sneered and glanced at Nangong Qi, "It seems that His Royal Highness the Seventh is bound to win this time." ”

"Nature." Nangong Qi glanced at Yan Qingyu, he had always been unaccustomed to the arrogance of the Imperial Jin Army, and made up his mind to extinguish the prestige of the Imperial Jin Army.

"Ben Du will see!" After Yan Qingyu finished speaking, she strode outside the dormitory.

Three days, not to mention whether this Nangong Qi has the ability to solve the case, or whether he deliberately made trouble for Ben Du. In short, without further ado, seize the time to solve the case.

Seeing Yan Qingyu walking away, Nangong Qi quickly ran out and hurried forward from another palace road, he had to hurry up, otherwise, if the provocation failed, he would lose very badly, wouldn't it be even more faceless.

Nangong Qi came out of the palace, and quickly came to the side gate of Prime Minister Ye Cheng's mansion not far away, the daytime guard is not as good as the night, Nangong Qi avoided the guards, climbed over the wall into the backyard of Ye Cheng's mansion, and went straight to the Yingchun Pavilion on the west side.

Fortunately, he has a good memory, and he still remembers that Ye Biyu once mentioned to An Wanqing that Yingchun Pavilion is the residence of the second lady.

Nangong Qi crept into the Yingchun Pavilion on the west side, startling Xing'er and An Wanqing.

"The Seventh Prince?" An Wanqing stood up from the stool and looked at Nangong Qi in surprise.

"The Seventh Prince?" Apricot was equally surprised. Is this the Seven Princes? How could the young lady know the Seventh Prince?

Xing'er reacted and hurriedly saluted Nangong Qi, "Slave Xing'er greets the Seventh Prince." ”

"You go outside at once, and if anyone comes, let us know immediately." Nangong Qi said anxiously to Xing'er.

"Huh?" Xing'er's eyes widened, she reacted, and glanced at An Wanqing, but when she saw that her young lady was silent, she walked out of the room and went outside to guard.

"Why is the Seventh Prince so anxious?" An Wanqing looked at Nangong Qi strangely.

"It's a long story, Xiao Wang will briefly describe it to you." Nangong Qi told An Wanqing about the bet with Yan Qingyu in the Dragon Bedroom Palace.

"What does Your Highness mean, you want Wanqing to help?" An Wanqing raised her head and looked at Nangong Qi.

"Wanqing is delicate, and intelligent, as early as in the wilderness inn, Xiao Wang has been taught, with the strength of Xiao Wang, how can he destroy the majesty of the Imperial Jin Army, naturally Wanqing is indispensable to help." Nangong Qi said seriously.

"In the wilderness inn, it just happened that Wanqing was crooked, and His Highness was too high-spirited, right? As the saying goes, there is a specialization in the art industry, and there is Jingzhao Mansion Yin to solve the case, there is the Criminal Department, and the Imperial Jin Army. An Wanqing chuckled.

"Wanqing, you don't have to be too modest. You know, Xiao Wang trusts you very much, and he has boasted about Haikou in front of his father, so he can't slap himself in the face. Wanqing, you must help Xiao Wang. Besides, don't you hate the Imperial Brocade Army too? Why not join forces with Xiao Wang? Nangong Qi said.

"This ......" An Wanqing was indeed a little shaken, and after thinking about it, she finally nodded, "Okay, the Imperial Jin Army is indeed very arrogant." ”

"If you say yes." Nangong Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and then urged: "Father only gave three days, and when the three days arrive, if the murderer is not caught, Xiao Wang will be miserable?" ”

"How miserable?" An Wanqing glanced at him with some amusement, and quipped: "I heard that His Majesty favors His Royal Highness the Seventh the most, and is willing to punish you?" ”

"Jun has no jokes, my father has always been resolute and resolute, saying that if he wants to be punished, he must be punished." Nangong Qi frowned.
