In the palace of the prince of Jiang Cheng, except for the elders such as Dongfang Changzheng's biological mother Ji Yunlan and grandfather Ji Ran, the rest were all dressed in mourning clothes, with anger and sadness on their faces.

As the saying goes: the tree fell and scattered, and the assassination of the Oriental Changzheng undoubtedly made a huge change in the chain of interests behind it. Among them, the most affected is his grandfather's Ji clan.

Perhaps it is precisely because it is difficult to get down in a high position and difficult to give up power, the Ji family plans to make a desperate gamble and enter the palace to force Dongfang Yunqi to severely punish the murderer. At the very least, it is necessary to make Dongfang Changse lose power, so as not to kill them all in the future.

In this regard, Ji Yunlan, the biological mother of Dongfang Changzheng, did not agree, she just wanted to keep a quiet vigil for her son. Of course, this is not to say that she doesn't want revenge, but she doesn't want the real enemy to see the jokes of their Ji clan.

It's a pity that his own family is really stupid. If she tells the truth, I'm afraid she will suffer a catastrophe. Therefore, she had to endure the pain alone, hoping to save her people.

Sadly, Ji Yunlan's hard work was exchanged for the accusations of her father and the clansmen. In this regard, the hatred in Ji Yunlan's heart! Sometimes she couldn't help but think that if it weren't for the drag of the Ji family, how could her son have today's tragedy.

Thinking about this, tears slipped from the corners of her eyes. At this moment, she was exhausted and didn't want to stop her father. In the end, Ji Ran still took the angry clansmen to force the palace.

Time flickered, and night fell quietly. The forced palace of the Ji clan made Dongfang Yunqi Longyan furious, and he removed Ji Ran from his position as dean on the spot. Ji Ran was not convinced, accusing Dongfang Yunqi of being incompetent and covering up the murderer. Dongfang Yunqi was extremely angry, deposed all the official positions of the Ji clan, and expelled Jiang Cheng.

When the news reached the mourning hall, Ji Yunlan laughed at herself. Then, he waved his hand and motioned for the doorman and servants to stand back. Liu Shixian was naturally among them, but when he was about to leave, Ji Yunlan left him.

"Mr. assists my son, and the old man feels it in his heart and mind. Now, my son has unfortunately passed away, and my old body does not dare to delay the future of my husband. However, before the gentleman chooses another master, can he bring a word for the old man? ”

Liu Shixian was shocked, but on the surface, he said respectfully: "Shixian is ashamed and failed to protect the lord." However, the matter has come to this point, and self-blame and remorse will not help. I also hope that the old lady will take care of her body and mourn smoothly. As for ......"

Halfway through the words, I saw Ji Yunlan scolding at the beginning: "Enough, are you really a fool of my Ji clan?" ”

Liu Shixian sighed and arched his hand: "Old lady, please speak!" Shixian will definitely bring. ”

"Imperial power is contested, and life and death depend on their abilities. I don't blame him for this, I just hope that he can raise his noble hand and leave a trace of blood for my son. ”

"Don't worry, old lady, with my understanding of that person, I will definitely not make a move on you."

"The life of the old body is not important, as long as he can spare the young children in the house, the old body wishes to judge himself in front of the spirit, and he has his heart."

Liu Shixian shook his head and sighed: "Alas, why are you bothered? Since ancient times, the king has been defeated, and the failure has always been at a price. ”

"Liu-Shi-Xian, do you really think that the old body can't kill you?"

"Even if you kill me, I have no right to decide this! Moreover, if you asked me to speak, I'm afraid it's not just to keep a trace of blood, right? ”

"The old body is not as vicious as you think?"

"Whether evil is vicious or not is not just words, and I, Liu Shixian, am not a three-year-old child. If you really want to keep your bloodline, say it yourself! Contemptible forgiveness! With that, he disappeared into the night.

Shortly after his departure, a guest sneaked into the house.

——————————

On the branches of the moon, a sad piano sound slowly came out. Following the sound of the piano, a lake-centrique pavilion flickered with faint candlelight. A man in the pavilion was stroking the piano with his eyes closed, and the fish in the lake were attracted by the sound of the piano and gathered in a ball.

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed quickly in the moonlight. The fish in the lake seemed frightened and fled in all directions. The man who stroked the qin was slightly stunned, thinking about the identity of the person who came.

Soon, he guessed it. After all, in addition to his biological mother, there were only three guests here. Now that the situation is special, it is clear that those three will not come again. Then, the only guest who can quietly enter the imperial city and deliberately alarm the fish is that old friend.

"Brother Wei heard that you went to the Valley of the Wind, why did you come back so soon?"

"I don't have time to talk to you about this right now, answer me a few questions."

Dongfang Changqin smiled slightly, and while playing, he replied: "You and my brothers, if you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Lin Man'er straightened his thoughts and asked very directly, "You killed the person, right?" ”

"Virtuous brother! There are not a few people who kill for their brothers, I don't know which one you are asking? ”

Lin Man'er frowned, and said quite unhappily: "Your eldest brother - Dongfang Changzheng!" ”

"Hehe, didn't my eldest brother die at the hands of Tuoba New Town? Brother Xian didn't ask him, why did he come to ask me? ”

"Okay, it's just the two of us here, stop acting."

"Brother Xian laughed, but he didn't act. My eldest brother did die at the hands of Tuoba New Town, and has nothing to do with being a brother. ”

"Really? Do you think that with his five-grade arrow immortal, he can kill the Oriental Long Kite? ”

Dongfang Changqin said indifferently: "Brother Xian is wrong again, Tuoba New City is not a fifth grade but a sixth grade. ”

"! I had seen him make a move when I was in Pengcheng before, when he had just entered the fifth grade. With his talent, it is impossible to get another product in the short term. ”

"Hehe, maybe he has another chance. Otherwise, how could he claim to have entered the sixth grade? If it is discovered, it will be self-destructive! ”

"Okay, let's count him as a six-grade arrow immortal, but I'm afraid that a six-grade arrow immortal alone can't kill the same six-grade Oriental Zheng, right? What's more, there are also two soul cultivators, Liu Shixian and Wu Minjin, present. ”

"Well, that's not going to happen. However, my eldest brother did die under the Nine Imperial Tricks of the Divine Arrow. It's weird! However, I've heard that Tuoba New Town is only acting on orders, and maybe there are other killers as well! ”

Lin Man'er grinded her teeth and said a little angrily: "I also did an investigation before I came. Dongfang Changzheng only has arrow wounds on his body, and judging from the wounds, it is at least a six-grade cultivation. But there are only five masters of the sixth grade and above in the Divine Arrow Pavilion.

Among them, Tuoba Wenlei is in Wushan, Tuoba Wenguang is in Guzhou College, and Tuoba Wenning is in Hakzhou College. As for the remaining two, they are Tuoba Siyuan of the eighth grade and Tuoba Siqi of the seventh grade.

Looking at these five, the one who is most likely to have the last chance to make a move is Tuoba Wenguang of Guzhou College. However, on the day of his assassination, Tuoba Wenguang was not at Guzhou College, but went to the Honka Inn. Coincidentally, it was my brother Yuwazi who received him. ”

"Oh, there is such a coincidence. But even if it's not Tuoba Wenguang, what can it prove? In other words, my eldest brother is dead, and my second brother can't get rid of suspicion. ”

"So, you admit it?"

Dongfang Changqin sighed heavily and asked rhetorically, "Brother Xian! I was assassinated in Pengcheng that day, and the person behind it was my older half-brother. Maybe you don't know that not long after I left Jiang City, I was also assassinated. Sadly, the person behind the scenes turned out to be my other half-brother.

Now, when I fight back to protect myself, am I a sinner in your eyes? Or do you think it makes sense only if I'm killed? ”

"I didn't mean that, I just wanted to ask."

"Well, I can tell you very clearly that the assassination plan was exactly what I had in mind. Now, are you satisfied? ”

Lin Man'er also sighed, and said with emotion: "Actually, you don't need to do this at all, I think your father will definitely pass on to you." ”

"Huh! Let's not talk about what your basis is, even if it is as you say, I will not live to that time. Why do you think I did it in such a hurry? ”

Lin Man'er was shocked and asked, "Dongfang Changzheng is also going to attack you?" ”

"Again, he's not just going to attack me, he's going to mutiny. Otherwise, do you think my father really can't see it at all? Actually, he knew it in his heart, but he had no choice. ”

"How is this possible? He's the king of a country! ”

"The king of a country? Hehe, it's not been for a long time. He blocked everything, but in the end he didn't get the situation he wanted. Moreover, his disciple Dabi, who had worked hard to plan, also failed a few days ago. That's why my big brother is in a hurry to do more. It's a pity that he was so preoccupied with my second brother that he ignored that I was still alive. ”

When Lin Man'er heard this, she still couldn't understand how Dongfang Changqin, who had always been unsupported, could suddenly bring down two brothers who held authority?

After a short silence, Lin Man'er shook his bald head and asked a little irritably: "Since the words are clear, then can you tell me who killed Dongfang Changzheng?" ”

"Can't you really guess?"

"I've thought enough about it, I don't want to bother."

"Hehe, that's in line with your personality. In fact, Tuoba New City is not the only one who has made a move. As you said, Tuoba New City lied about his cultivation, and he was powerless to succeed at all. However, his mission is not to shoot, but to take responsibility for the crime, leading out the Divine Arrow Pavilion and the Eastern Changse. As for the real killer, it is the elder of the Meizhou Branch, the Zilan Fairy. ”

As soon as Lin Man'er heard the Zilan Fairy, she thought of Su Shan. Moreover, Su Shan once told him that the Zilan Fairy had obtained the complete Nine Imperial Techniques of the Divine Arrow, and his cultivation had also improved greatly.

However, what puzzled him was that there was Liu Shixian, a master of the Soul Sea Realm, present at that time. In this way, even if Tuoba Siyuan personally took action, it would be difficult to shoot Wu Minjin of the Soul Valve Realm after shooting Dongfang Changzheng. In other words, Wu Minjin could have escaped under the cover of Liu Shixian to report the news.

Dongfang Changqin seemed to guess Lin Man'er's thoughts, and continued to narrate: "Of course, even if it is a Purple Orchid Fairy, it is difficult to bypass Wu Minjin and shoot successfully. However, if Wu Minjin is restricted, it will be much easier. ”

Speaking of which, even if Lin Man'er is elm head, he should understand Liu Shixian's identity. When you think about this, it all makes sense. It's just that why did Liu Shixian become the internal response of the Oriental Changqin?
