The inner city of the imperial capital, the Ministry of Rites.

Many Wuju people left the Ministry of Rites, and they continued to talk along the way.

"Once you're out of this door, you don't have to talk about it anymore, so you don't have to accidentally break your oath," one person worried.

Everyone's expressions changed, and they no longer mentioned the tomb.

When Zhang Xiyun and others walked out of the gate of the Ministry of Rites, many Wuju people had already left in twos and threes.

Outside the gate of the Ministry of Rites, a carriage was parked, and when Zhang Xiyun came out, a criminal department in a navy blue flying fish robe quickly got out of the carriage and walked towards Zhang Xiyun and others.

The criminal department was about to arrive in front of everyone, and saluted Zhang Xiyun and said, "The criminal department arrested Zheshan quickly, and I have seen Zhang Zhuangyuan." ”

Zhang Xiyun was stunned, he only knew that he had won the champion of martial arts, how could he know that the criminal department was arrested?

"Do you recognize me?" Zhang Xiyun hesitated.

Zheshan smiled when he heard this: "It was Lord Xu Chuan who ordered me to come." ”

Zhang Xiyun was stunned and said, "Brother Xu, does he want to see me?"

"Exactly, Xu Zhutou ordered me to send you to the Chaolai Inn. "Zheshan Road.

Zhang Xiyun smiled when he heard this, nodded and said, "I'm also going back to the Chaolai Inn, which saves a lot of effort." ”

"Please wait a moment for me to say goodbye to my companions. Zhang Xiyun said.

Tetsuyama nodded and walked back to the carriage alone.

Zhang Xiyun turned around, and before he could speak, Fang Ran said first: "I didn't expect that Brother Zhang and the head catcher of the Criminal Department have a good relationship, I have just stepped out of the gate of the Ministry of Rites, and someone has already come to pick you up, I must have been paying attention to the movements of the Ministry of Rites these days." ”

Zhang Xiyun couldn't help but smile, Fang Ran said it well, I think Xu Chuan has been sending people to wait outside the Ministry of Rites these days, and this gesture of wanting to make friends is extremely obvious.

"Brother Zhang doesn't need to say more, we all heard it just now. Fang Ran continued, "Since that's the case, Brother Zhang will go ahead." ”

"In a few days, we will all enter the palace to face the saint, and it will not be too late to meet again. ”

Zhang Xiyun said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then don't pass it today." ”

Everyone said goodbye, Zhang Xiyun got into the carriage of the Criminal Department and went to the outer city.

Fang Ran looked at the back of the carriage in the distance, and said in his heart that this imperial capital city is probably going to be a famous person

Imperial Outer City, North City.

Outside the inn, the carriage of the criminal department is coming.

Zhang Xiyun walked out of the carriage and couldn't help grinning when he saw the plaque hanging high outside the inn.

"Yesterday was like a dream, and today it is back here"

Zheshan said: "Since the champion has been sent back, I will leave first." ”

When Zhang Xiyun heard this, he said: "It's better to go into the inn together to rest for a while and then it's not too late to leave." ”

Zheshan shook his head and said: "The Criminal Department has been very busy recently, and I really can't delay any longer, thank you for your kindness." ”

When Zhang Xiyun heard this, he thought a lot, the Criminal Department has been busy with official business recently, could it be related to the matter of the tomb?

"Farewell. "Zheshan hugged his fists.

Since this is the case, Zhang Xiyun no longer stayed, opened his mouth to say goodbye, and after Zheshan left, he turned around and walked into the Chaolai Inn.

The Chaolai Inn is still very lively, almost all the seats are absent, and everyone is talking about something.

As soon as Zhang Xiyun entered the door, he saw Yan Jiujun who was looking at the account book comfortably, and walked towards her with a smile.

Before the word "Yan" Zhang Xiyun was out of the mouth, he saw her glaring at her, and immediately swallowed the word deputy supervisor back into his stomach.

He smiled at Yan Jiujun and said, "Boss Yan, I'm back." ”

Yan Jiujun just replied lazily: "Got it." ”

Yan Jiujun has the cultivation of immortal roads, and when Zhang Xiyun first arrived at the door, he naturally sensed his breath.

Seeing that she was gone, Zhang Xiyun was slightly embarrassed, standing in place and not knowing whether to leave or stay.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Yan Jiujun to close the account book in front of him and look up at him.

"After going out, my strength has improved a lot. ”

Zhang Xiyun replied modestly: "Boss Yan praised it falsely. ”

Yan Jiujun got up and slowly walked to his side.

She raised her eyebrows lightly and said softly: "I didn't expect that even Liqi took a fancy to you, although I couldn't let you join the Cangyu Army, but I still gave you the name of a champion." ”

Zhang Xiyun's heart trembled, why did Yan Jiujun even know about this matter, and listen to the meaning of her words, his martial arts champion was because of his disappointment?

He hurriedly said: "Thanks to the wrong love of the Great Commander, Xiyun is ashamed. ”

Yan Jiujun sneered and said, "Don't pretend with me, just follow me." ”

With that, she turned around and went upstairs, and Zhang Xiyun hurriedly followed.

The two came to the third floor, Yan Jiujun led him into a guest room, and Xu Chuan was drinking tea alone in the room.

"Brother Xu?" Zhang Xiyun said.

When Xu Chuan saw him come in, he got up and said with a smile: "Finally waited for the champion." ”

Zhang Xiyun said embarrassedly: "Brother Xu, this is tormenting me"

"By the way, thank you Brother Xu for sending someone to pick me up at the Ministry of Rites. ”

"Hey, what are you talking about, you returned to the imperial capital, and won the first place in martial arts, if it weren't for my bad appearance, I should have picked you up in person. Xu Chuan said with a smile.

Yan Jiujun on the side couldn't see such a scene, and sneered: "Sit down." ”

Xu Chuan hurriedly said: "Deputy Yan Jian is right, let's sit down and talk again." ”

After the three of them sat down, Xu Chuan personally added three cups of tea and said slowly: "Xiyun, you have been in the Ministry of Rites for five or six days, and there have been some changes in the Imperial Capital City, I am afraid you don't know yet."

Zhang Xiyun put down the teacup in his hand, and secretly said in his heart Sure enough, he asked him, "What does Brother Xu mean?"

Xu Chuan glanced at Yan Jiujun, only to see that her face was expressionless, and then said with a smile: "The recent incident has a lot to do with your experience in the tomb."

Zhang Xiyun's face was straight, and he said, "Please also ask Brother Xu to talk to me." ”

Xu Chuan sighed and said, "This matter has to start from the day you left the imperial capital."

"On the day you left Beijing, a major incident happened in the Criminal Department, Hua Xiong died"

Zhang Xiyun was shocked when he heard this, and said in disbelief: "Huaxiong is dead?"

Xu Chuan nodded and said, "Yes, Hua Xiong is dead, but it has nothing to do with the Criminal Department."

Speaking of this, he paused, then smiled bitterly, and said: "Maybe it should also be said about"

And Zhang Xiyun, who heard this, immediately thought of a person, and said: "God catches Shangguan Xia Lin!?"

Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you know?"

Zhang Xiyun replied: "In the tomb, I have been with the Grand Commander all the way, and I know many speculations about the Grand Commander. ”

Xu Chuan nodded after hearing this, and said, "I see, no wonder"

He continued, "In that case, I'll tell you the whole thing directly." ”

"Shangguan Da" Xu Chuan instinctively wanted to say the word "adult", but he hurriedly swallowed it back, and changed his words: "Shangguan Xia Lin is actually Dan Chengtian's angry person, he concealed his identity and mixed into the Dragon Court, and even sat in the position of the god arrest of the criminal department, he personally admitted that Hua Xiong was also killed by him!"

When Zhang Xiyun heard this, he couldn't help frowning, Hua Xiong's collusion with the Lingwu faction was actually his framing of the Hua family, and Hua Xiong's real collusion was with Zuodao Taoyuan Township, since this is the case, then Hua Xiong actually did not collude with Dan Chengtianfu, but why did Shangguan Xia Lin kill Hua Xiong?

And he couldn't explain this matter to Xu Chuan, only Yan Jiujun guessed that Zhang Xiyun had planted the Hua family after the end of the Wuge deathfight, at this moment, Zhang Xiyun couldn't help but look at Yan Jiujun with a sideways face, but saw that she looked like she didn't care about herself, and she didn't react to this matter.

"The reason why this martial arts move was chosen in the tomb of evil is also because Shangguan Xia Lin has speculated about the holy will for many years, and took advantage of the emperor's departure from Beijing to try his best to deceive His Majesty, so he made this holy decree. ”

Zhang Xiyun nodded, what Xu Chuan said was almost no different from the speculation of the day of the disaster, which shows what kind of evil the separation is.

Xu Chuan continued: "On the day that the Great Commander returned to Beijing, he reported the matter to His Majesty, His Majesty Long Yan was furious, and without knowing the Punishment Department, he directly ordered the Great Commander to lead the Cangyu Army to arrest Shangguan Xia Lin. ”

Zhang Xiyun hurriedly asked, "Have you ever taken it?"

Xu Chuan couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile and said, "It would be good if he caught it, but he just let him escape." ”

Zhang Xiyun said in disbelief: "I went to the Great Commander in person, but he still ran away?"

"I don't know why, Shangguan Xia Lin seems to have known that the matter was revealed, it is reported that only an hour after the commander entered the palace to face the saint, he had already left the imperial capital, and the Cangyu army chased after him when he heard the news, and caught up with him in a small town along the coast, but there were six Dan kings who were angry with the sky to answer him."

"The Great Commander was entangled by the five Dan Kings, and finally Shangguan Xia Lin took the opportunity to escape from Zhonghuang Continent. ”

Zhang Xiyun sighed, thinking that Shangguan Xia Lin had been able to hide in the Dragon Court for many years, and even planned the evil tomb, and now that he had escaped, I am afraid that he would let the tiger return to the mountain.

Zhang Xiyun pondered for a moment, then hesitated slightly: "These things are indeed extremely serious, but why does Brother Xu want to tell me this?"

Xu Chuan's face was hesitant, and finally spoke: "The reason why I told you about this matter is that one is because you have entered the Qin Heavenly Prison, and the ban on Dan case will definitely be involved in the future, and the other is that you are already in this case, and the affairs of the Hua family are related to you, and according to the Great Commander Li, it is also because of you that you can find two Dan kings in the tomb, and Liu Hao was also killed by you." ”

"And" His face was cloudy, and he sighed and said: "You must know that after entering the imperial capital, you will definitely be noticed by the officials of the household department, and you have emerged many times, so you will naturally be investigated by the household department and leave a file in the household department." ”

"And the day you return to Beijing, within an hour before the Great Commander Face the Sage, the last thing Shangguan Xia Lin, who has not left the Imperial Capital City, does"

Xu Chuan looked at Zhang Xiyun and said in a deep voice: "He went to the household department and took away all the files and records about you!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiyun himself was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth, his hand holding the tea froze, and he put down the teacup in his hand for a while, and asked later: "Brother Xu, you mean that the household department investigated my identity, recorded it in the file, and stayed in the household department, and now these files were taken away before Shangguan Xia Lin escaped from the imperial capital?"

Xu Chuan nodded solemnly and said: "Shangguan Xia Lin's defection to the Dragon Court is still being ordered by His Majesty to conceal it, except for many officials of the Dragon Court in the imperial capital, it has not yet been spread, but after all, this matter will not be hidden for long, and the entire Wuzhou will know about it."

"Originally, you haven't really taken up your post yet, so you shouldn't have been informed of this matter, but it was precisely because Shangguan Xia Lin took away your file that His Majesty allowed you to inform you of this matter in advance."

Zhang Xiyun's head is now a mess, he can't figure out his mind at all, he has no grievances with this Shangguan Xia Lin, and he has never even seen each other, why did he take away his records in the household department before fleeing from the imperial capital.

Xu Chuan saw that his expression was ugly, and said with relief: "Don't worry, now that you are in the imperial capital, even if he has bad intentions towards you, he will not dare to return to the imperial capital." ”

Zhang Xiyun smiled bitterly and said: "But I can't hide in the imperial capital all the time, after I take office, sooner or later I will have to go out of the imperial capital." ”

Xu Chuan nodded and said, "This is also what we are most worried about, if according to our analysis, there are probably two major reasons why Shangguan Xia Lin wants to thoroughly investigate your identity." ”

"First, you ruined the good deeds of Dan Chengtianfu three times, when you came to the imperial capital with Lord An Luping, you found out that the Lingwu faction and Dancheng Tianfu secretly colluded, and then in the imperial capital city, it was revealed that the Hua family and the Lingwu faction colluded, and it was also a matter of collusion with Dancheng Tianfu, and finally in the tomb, you slashed Liu Hao with a sword, and even helped the commander to find two Dan kings, so that Shangguan Xia Lin's identity that had been hidden for many years was exposed"

"Second, Lord An Luping personally recommended you to enter the Qin Heavenly Prison, and you have to be admitted by Deputy Yan Jian personally, and you are walking as a Tianqiong, and now your new talent can be called a demon, if you are allowed to grow, in the future, you will be angry with Dan Chengtian everywhere in the Qin Heavenly Prison, it will be a big disaster for them, it is better to eradicate it as soon as possible."

After Zhang Xiyun listened to Xu Chuan's analysis, Fang is really bitter smile, everything Xu Chuan said made sense, he didn't expect that he and Dan Chengtianfu were so deeply involved unconsciously.

I don't know if this is the fate of myself and Dan Cheng Tianfu, or the fate of Qin Tianjian in the dark?

Zhang Xiyun has inexplicably ruined many good things in Dan Chengtian's anger, and now he is really going to enter the Qin Tianjian who thoroughly investigates all the major cases of banning Dan, and it is no wonder that Dan Chengtian's anger people can't help but want to kill him

Zhang Xiyun had words of suffering, but he had no choice but to speak: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided."

Xu Chuan sighed: "I also know that if you know that you are being targeted by Dan Chengtian's anger, you will inevitably feel uneasy, but I am afraid that if you don't know anything, you will fall into the trap of others." ”

"Brother Xu doesn't need to say it, I know you have good intentions. Zhang Xiyun said.

Xu Chuan continued: "Since this is the case, I won't bother anymore, the Criminal Department has been very busy these days, you just came back from the Ministry of Rites, so rest more." ”

He knew that Zhang Xiyun needed some time to clear his thoughts, so he planned to say goodbye and leave.

"Shangguan Xia Lin has already escaped, what is the Criminal Department still busy with recently?" Zhang Xiyun couldn't help but wonder when he remembered that Zheshan of Fang Cai had also said the same.

Xu Chuan was about to get up and leave, when he heard Zhang Xiyun ask, he sat down again, and said with a wry smile: "It is because Shangguan Xia Lin has fled, Your Majesty Long Yan is furious, the household department has not been able to find out the identity of Shangguan Xia Lin for many years, and he took away your file, so naturally it is not shirkable, and even the household department Shangshu has been replaced." ”

"And everyone in the Criminal Department has worked with Shangguan Xia Lin all these years, but no one has noticed it, and it is difficult to escape the implication. ”

"Yesterday, Zhang and Sheng, the two gods, even wrote together to ask for guilt and ask for a cut of officials!" (To be continued.) )
