"It costs a lot of money to have Aoi Liang personally deliver the snacks. Watching the petite man walk up the stairs steadily, Huang Fuqing said to Dugu Linqi, "You should feel honored." ”

"It seems that doing this business is quite profitable. He didn't reply positively.

"Yes, it's a lot of money, and there's no risk, at most-" Seeing that Kwai Liang was approaching, Huang Fuqing no longer talked about the Qinglou industry. Dugu Linqi came to the conclusion that Aoi Liang must have hated his errand very much. "Okay, you eat well, it's all up to you later. ”

"I'm not sure how far 'Wisdom Guidance' can go," Dugu Linqi took a deep breath, "I do my best." ”

"Hmm. Huang Fuqing motioned for Kwai Liang to sit down, and with a wave of his hand, the window closed leisurely. Dugu Linqi seems to understand why he wants to let Kwai Liang join him, Huang Fuqing may be taking a fancy to his intelligence network in the capital, this ignorant but mature ** may not realize that he was just deceived by Huang Fuqing's rhetoric.

Dugu Linqi glanced at him sympathetically, and didn't break it - he didn't have to do this, everyone in the secret sect was good at taking advantage of others, and he was no exception, and being able to contact the upper class of society was a very good starting point.

"It's up to me to explain first, so that Lu Yue can provide clues. Huang Fuqing shook out the folding fan again, the cool wind can help people refresh their minds, "From the very beginning, Lu Yue, you have to listen carefully, and tell us anything that may be related." ”

Lu Yue nodded immediately: "I understand." ”

"Half a month ago, the ninth-level floating slaughter of our Killer City received an incident, the killer is a person from our secret sect, so he called him Zhuang Yue, Zhuang Yue is going to the capital to assassinate the current Son of Heaven - you must know that he died on the platform about a week ago. ”

"Well, the assassination was a success," he said word by word, "and during this time, the distinguished guests of Yanyulou have all had ill intentions and wanted to profit from the assassination of the Son of Heaven, but none of them were buyers of murder, and everyone was thinking about who could have done such a trick." ”

Dugu Linqi remembered that the sign hanging outside the house seemed to have these three words.

"How did those people speculate?" asked Huang Fuqing.

"I want to think about it...... The most they talked about was the death of the Emperor three years ago—"

"Wait, Huangfu Qing," Dugu Linqi asked, "Don't you know who hired Zhuang Yue?"

Huang Fuqing showed a look of regret: "The business of Killer City is all confidential, how can I know, and the city lord will not reveal it." ”

Kill, the rules of Killer City, the city lord who looks honest and honest is quite obsessed with the rules, Dugu Linqi suspects that the city lord is the leader of the secret sect, but there is no evidence, and he does not dare to touch this issue. The members of the Esoteric Sect all know that it is taboo for the Esoteric Sect to talk about the sect master, and their sect leader is mysterious and evil, and it is always mixed with the twelve esoteric sect members, and some people even think that there is no sect leader in the Esoteric Sect at all-

It's also possible.

Dugu Linqi thought silently, even if there is no sect leader, there must be a leader, right? Huang Fuqing said that the secret sect has a history of at least fifteen years, is the person who originally founded the secret sect still alive?

What do these members mean in the eyes of the Master?

Playthings, figurines, and figurines are all possible.

The scene of the shadow puppet show flashed in Dugu Linqi's mind.

No one likes the feeling of being manipulated, and even more so he does. Since the fall of Dugu Yuanshan, he has always felt that he is led by a thread called "life", he is destined to escape the slaughter, he is destined to meet Huang Fuqing and join the secret sect, and then he is destined to meet Shen Shuoxia...... He has no free direction, and the future is planned into an unbreakable path by an invisible line.

"What about Zhuangyue?" he asked subconsciously. Zhuang Yue is the murderer of the Son of Heaven, so he should know who bought the life of the little emperor, right?

"Of course he's gone to avoid the limelight, I can't find him, and the next time we see him is probably a long time later. Huang Fuqing said, "Let's not talk about these trivial things. Lu Yue, you continue. ”

"Those dignitaries believe that the reason why Princess Tilting Lotus can control the government is precisely because her younger brother is the emperor, and as soon as the little emperor dies, Princess Tilting Lotus will have no place to stand. ”

"These things can be thought up by pedantic heads, and it seems that our ministers of the Western Dynasty are not incompetent. Huang Fuqing had no intention of interrupting.

Aoi Ryo smiled softly, as if he wanted to say, "Some people are not ignorant and pedantic," but he swallowed back the extra words and continued: "Three years ago, the battle for imperial power was roughly divided into three factions......

It's a cliché. Dugu Linqi was even tired of listening to the story of three years ago, when he and Chen Jian were tracking down the secrets of Wudang a few days ago, his brain was filled with those boring partisanship, but he didn't expect to have to listen to Kwai Liang again when he arrived in the capital. What Aoi Liang said was exactly what he knew, with a little more inconsequential details. The Little Emperor faction, the prince faction and the Shenyue Wang faction, in the end, the snipe and the clam competed for the fisherman's profit, and Princess Tilting Lotus controlled the government - strange, why didn't anyone think of Princess Tilting Lotus in the first place?

He raised his doubts.

"Princess...... She did not show any intention of participating in the seizure of power, and besides, she was a woman, and she was mostly ignored. Aoi explained, "I've heard a strange story about a princess. ”

"Say, it's important. Huang Fuqing urged.

"Do you know that the princess was sent to the north when she was a child? ”

"Is it true?" said Huangfu Qingqing, "I have heard similar rumors that the princess suddenly fell out of favor and was sent to Guanwai, but she is back. ”

"It does. Aoi Liang nodded, earrings clanging, "The north is a mysterious place, where the princess either gained some kind of power, or was possessed by some kind of ghost, in short, after she came back, her personality changed greatly, and she became what she is now." ”

"But things went around to the north again. "But I don't know anything about the North, except that it's full of exiles and their remains. It sounds like the princess is inseparable from the North, and her temperament has changed greatly since she returned from the North...... "His voice is getting quieter and quieter, and he doesn't know what he is talking about."

"That's why we need your mystical powers. Huang Fuqing said, "Isn't it just to use it to fill the current gap?"

"I've pushed the force, but I can't think of anything at the moment. Dugu Linqi glanced at him.

"Then you can eat more. ”

"Does Xuanyue need to eat a lot when she uses her power?" Aoi Liang looked at him with the eyes of the water spirit.

"Pretty much. "Exhaustion and hunger may be one thing. Dugu Linqi grabbed a handful of spicy peanuts and swallowed them in his mouth, "Huang Fuqing, aren't we discussing how to deal with Jinyiwei now?

"Do you mean to bypass the princess?

This is a matter of suspense, Dugu Linqi has been gaining mystical power for many years, and he still can't tell which ideas come from him and which ones come from that strange power. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since I've been using my abilities, I guess it's 'Wisdom Words'." ”

"Are you sure?" Huang Fuqing didn't trust Dugu Linqi's intuition, he said, "You have to know that the person who asked Bian Liang to investigate the case is the princess, do you think it will have nothing to do with the princess?"

“...... That makes sense, but ...... Anyway, I can't tell if it's my idea or something else. Dugu Linqi frowned in annoyance, "Aoi Liang, you can continue to talk about the rumors about the princess." ”

"Okay," Aoi nodded, "There are also some rumors about the maid beside the princess. ”

"What rumors?" the young man did not hide his eagerness, and Huang Fuqing on the side couldn't help but smack his lips when he saw his reaction.

"Princess Tilting has known her maid since she was very young. The outside world thought that the Gonglian team was established after the princess returned to Beijing, but just the maids-" Kwai Liang realized that Dugu Linqi's gaze became urgent, and he quickly sensed his relationship with her, so he explained in a more respectful tone, "The Gonglian team may have been born earlier. The old man who worked in prison said that the maid was a prisoner, and it was the princess who pleaded with the emperor to make her free. ”

Shen Shuoxia was once a prisoner of the Western Dynasty? Dugu Linqi felt a thunderbolt in the sky. What is this? Good news? Bad news? He is not a shallow person who was born in vain, but the fact that Shen Shuoxia was a prisoner is a little unusual, perhaps Zhiyan is manipulating his brain, and he feels more and more that he is stepping into the quagmire step by step. Princess, North, Shen Shuoxia, Cell...... These inextricable threads were built one by one in the blank world, his eyes radiated a pale blue light, and a terrifying truth was slowly revealed.

"It's not enough...... Dugu Linqi understood, Zhiyan pointed the way and urged himself to find more clues, "If there is anything else, Kwai Liang, tell me." I can only see the tip of the truth, it is too small to see clearly......" beads of sweat the size of beans dripped from his cheeks, and his pale face, dry and exposed hands seemed to age ten years in an instant.

The power of the mystical was overdrawing his life.

The snort became faint, as if a gust of wind could kill him. He shuddered and pressed his hands to the armrests on either side, feeling like he was going to slip out of his chair at any moment.

"I can't do it......" he gasped in a low voice, vaguely seeing Huang Fuqing's panicked look.

Yes, this big brother who has always been calm should also be alarmed, even he didn't expect that it would be so difficult to use wisdom to guide the way this time.

It's too reluctant......

The clenched teeth unconsciously loosened, and saliva and sweat rolled to his chest.

"Childish weeping, childish weeping!" Huang Fuqing shook his shoulder, took his pulse for him, and passed on the gong to him, "Luyue, help me call the doctor-it's not the medical hall next to the Yanyu Building, go to my inn, there is a medical girl named Shen Ya, call her!"

Shen Ya......

A relieved smile appeared on the corner of Dugu Linqi's mouth.

I shouldn't die......
