Chapter 169: Many Variables
At present, there are two main points of contention, the first is whether the disappearance of the prospective princess is related to the Wei envoy. Anyway, so far, Princess Hanyue has not shown up, and they are trapped in the inn, and it is not clear whether King Yao, Mo Tizhun and others have found the princess.
Feng Miaojun had a kind of unprovoked determination in his heart: It's not that easy, if this matter is really related to Yunjie.
Then for the time being, it will be assumed that the disappearance of Princess Hanyue is related to the Wei State - in view of the tense situation between Wei Yao, the king of Yue probably thinks so, otherwise he would not have recruited the Wei envoy into the palace - now the Wei envoy has also had an accident, and the envoy of a country visited the country of Yao, especially after "visiting" the palace and died violently, and the country must give an explanation.
Yun Jie finally cheered up and killed the spicy soup and scallion pancakes in three or two bites. Feng Miaojun watched from the side and saw that his movements were crisp and crisp, which was very in line with Chi Zhi's character, but it was completely different from Yun Kui's own gentle elegance. If she hadn't been around this person, she wouldn't have associated this person with Yun Jie at all.
At such a moment, he can still carry out the details like this, and his mind is really terrifyingly delicate.
After he sent the deputy envoy away, he turned to Feng Miaojun: "Guess, how will the country end this time?"
Feng Miaojun was also thinking about this question, and after a long time, he pondered: "Could it be that you copy the tricks of the Yan Kingdom, and say that the Wei envoy was assassinated by people from other countries, and they are searching for the murderer? ”
Yun Kuo smiled, "Can they get rid of themselves?"
Feng Miaojun thought for a while before shaking his head: "No." This trick was used once by Yan Guo and it didn't work. Besides, now that the envoys of various countries are gathered in the capital, which one is not exquisite, it is not a wise move for them to prevaricate like this. In that case, there's only one way—"
"Catch the murderer and find a way to calm the coming anger of the Wei State. ”
Yun Kui took a sip of tea: "Have you guessed who the murderer is?"
"Can't guess. "If she had previously believed that Princess Hanyue's disappearance had nothing to do with Yun Kui, then after the Wei envoy died violently, she couldn't be sure.
Who killed the Wei envoy? This answer is what everyone in the city of Inzi wants to know, including the king of Yinzi.
Feng Miaojun stood by the window and looked out, originally thinking that this city was ancient and vibrant, but now it seems to be full of suspense and suspicion.
There was a commotion in the streets, and a troop of brightly armored soldiers and horses hurried through the city to the palace. She happened to recognize the person in the lead, it was Xu Wenrin.
Xu Wenrin's face was solemn at this time, and he looked preoccupied.
Feng Miaojun saw him like this, and his face smiled.
Yun Kui saw this smile, glanced at the center of the street, and also saw Xu Wenrin, and the corners of his mouth were hooked: "Xu Wenlin is really anxious now." ”
"Isn't that it?" Feng Miaojun's mood suddenly improved. The inspection and security of the entire Inzi City are in charge of the city guard, Xu Wenrin, as the leader of the city guard, has a heavy task these days, but he also encountered the violent death of the Wei envoy. Tsk, the arrest of the suspect was originally within the scope of his authority, not to mention that Wei Ling's death had something to do with his city guards:
Before Qi Tianxing died, his subordinates wanted to go outside to seek medical treatment, but they were stopped by the city guards.
Although Cheng Wuwei's move was to perform his official duties, if it was linked to the violent death of the Wei envoy, who would dare to say that there was no causal relationship in it? After all, the post house had been cleared out, and only the Wei envoy lived in it alone, and the city guard surrounded the post house, and no one else could enter or leave.
At least on the surface.
So does Wei make the death have anything to do with Cheng Wuwei?
This adds another layer of uncertainty to the current confusing situation.
But Feng Miaojun, an outsider, watched the excitement, and there was another happy thing: Xu Wenlin was trapped in this situation that was difficult to protect herself, and nine out of ten were in no mood to think about her adoptive mother Xu.
Xu and Feng Ji are basically safe, and they no longer urgently need to evacuate Inzi City.
This kind of relocation is like chopping off the hands and feet, and the losses are huge. It's best if you're prepared to leave.
"Wait, maybe it will come out soon. Yun Kuo smiled, "I always have a hunch that this matter is not over yet." ”

Two days passed in the city of Inds.
Princess Hanyue is still nowhere to be seen, the murderer of the Wei envoy is still at large, and Xu Wenlin has ushered in the lowest point of his life: the Wei envoy Qi Tianxing and the city guard clashed in the east wind, and then were brought back by the city guard for interrogation. The worst thing was that at that time, several of his subordinates were listening to Wei Envoy's words, so someone gave evidence that these people did say that they planned to take advantage of the night to make Wei Envoy half dead.
When King Yao pointed at his nose and scolded, he was so angry that his fingers trembled, but he didn't lose his reason in the end, and Xu Wenlin usually won his trust, so he didn't convict him for a while. The subordinates of the city guards who were arrogant fell into bad luck, and were thrown into the prison after being beaten to the flesh, and tortured day and night to find out who was behind them.
However, Xu Wenlin and Wei envoys had a holiday first, and the investigation of the case could not be handled impartially, and besides, two precious days had passed since the incident, and the progress of the case was still nothing.
Xu Wenlin was shocked, patted his chest again, and prayed in mourning, and the king refused to retract his order, and ordered him to hand over the authority immediately.
Today's Inz City will be stirred by a little wind and grass to stir the most sensitive god ¥~ Sutra. The news of the sudden dismissal of the commander of the dignified city military guard spread far and wide.
And so it passed seven more days.

East of the palace of the king, the palace of the Ming Dynasty.
The Lüming Palace, where the prince lives, is the most magnificent building complex in the eastern part of the entire Yaowang Palace. Yesterday was the eighth day of the lunar month, and the city of Inds finally ushered in the first snow of winter.
It was a rare goose feather snowfall, and in just one night, the snow could reach the calves. Therefore, from the time of the child, servants were arranged in the palace to be on duty, and they took turns to clear the snow every two hours, so that the masters who got up in the morning would not have a way out.
Early in the morning of the second day, it was covered in silver everywhere, and there was another interest.
At the end of the day, the maid of the Luming Palace came to the Ming Garden. This is the residence of the prince's favorite concubine Zhao, and there is a garden view outside the window.
But at the moment, the door was closed.
She looked over and asked the guard guarding the door, "Your Highness has not risen?"
"Not up. ”
The prince was diligent and always got up early. However, it is easy to sleep on a snowy day, and he stayed at Concubine Zhao last night, so it is not surprising that he sleeps a little longer.
So the maid turned.
This is an hour. King Yao also felt strange that the eldest son did not show up and did not ask for leave.
