After this incident, Wang Duobao was carried back to the bedroom to heal his injuries.

With Wei Jue's weak body and bones, even if he broke into the Divine Palace Realm, how could he withstand such a beating.

After Wang Duobao returned to the bedroom, he fell unconscious on the bed and fell asleep for a whole day and a night.

The clothes soaked in cold sweat were wrung out of two basins of water!

After Wei Shi returned to the imperial study, he began to send people to investigate the matter thoroughly, and the people sent were all his most trusted and confidant Ouchi secret officials, and asked to find out the matter as soon as possible.

In the evening, the secret official returned to the guard period in the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the minister led people to search Tao Yang's home and various properties, but they couldn't find half a penny and greedy silver taels. Tao Yang's wife is diligent and thrifty, and she is used to keeping accounts on weekdays, from the purchase of industries to rice and flour diesel, and even a small hairpin has accounts to check. ”

Wei Shi frowned when he heard this.

Doesn't this mean that his good prince Wei Jue framed Tao Yang?

Whether it is Tao Yang who is really treacherous and loyal, or Wei Jue deliberately framed Tao Yang, he doesn't want to believe it, and he can't believe it.

Wei Shi pondered for a while and then asked:

"In your opinion, is this really Wei Jue's framing of Tao Yang?"

"The ministers guessed so!"

The secret officer told the truth.

The Inner Secret Division is divided into two parts, the secret official and the secret guard, and the two are one literary and one martial.

Secret officials are responsible for intelligence, case investigation, covert investigation, etc., and their strength is not as strong as that of secret guards, but they pay attention to honesty, and they will never lie when they say anything.

He is the most trusted group of people in the Wei period, no matter how outspoken they are, he will not blame them, this is the rule he has set.

However, such as Cui Wu's first-class secret guards, it is different.

The secret guards are responsible for protecting the way, assassination, etc., and their cultivation strength is extremely terrifying and profound, and the doorway is also very deep.

One by one, they just need to do their job, there is no need to be honest, there can be some concealment.

In short, it's a knife.

The master can ask for the knife, but the knife cannot speak on its own.

This is also the rule set by the Guardian Period.

"What do you think...... What was Wei Jue's motive for suddenly framing and killing Tao Yang this time? I couldn't figure it out. ”

Wei Shi frowned, one hand diagonally propped up his head, one hand pressed on the tabletop, and his fingers kept tapping lightly on the wooden table.

After pondering for a moment, the secret official still told the truth:

"The minister doesn't know, if it is said that the prince Jue is holding a grudge just because he was punished by Lord Tao, the minister also thinks that it is too unbelievable, and the prince Jue is famous, not such a person."

"It's just that the ministers found out that several officials who have been repeatedly recommended by Prince Jue to the Ministry of Officials recently have been detained by Lord Tao when they arrive in Zhongshu Province."

"If it's because he was stopped by Lord Tao and disobeyed his will......"

The secret officer hesitated for a moment and shook his head.

"Even if this is the case, the minister thinks it is unlikely, Prince Jue has never had bad deeds, and he has a gentle personality, so he shouldn't be a killer because of this little thing."

The incident reached an impasse for a while.

The guard did not ask any further questions, and the secret official also stood aside respectfully and did not say anything more.

The lights in the huge imperial study were dim and silent, only the crisp sound of Wei Zhi's fingers constantly tapping on the tabletop was particularly weird.

After being silent for a while, Wei Shi reached out and rubbed his temples painfully, and then asked:

"How's the scholar?"

"Your Majesty, that scholar is still a child, he has never seen the world, he is timid, we have recruited everything before we have been tortured, but he still said that he saw Lord Tao accepting bribes from Prince Jue."

"Then we used the torture, and as soon as the torture was used, the scholar changed his words and said that it was Lord Tao who was directly killed by the prince of Jue, and then the silver ticket was stuffed."

"When we continue to torture, the scholar changed his story and said that Master Tao was killed by Prince Jue after accepting the bribe, and when the scholar finally broke down, he would only beg us to give him an end."

Such a side-by-side testimony was still rare to hear, and he raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked the secret officer:

"What do you think is going on?"

"According to the experience of the ministers, it was the scholar who could not stand the torture, so he repeatedly changed his words and wanted to give us a satisfactory answer, so that we could end the torture of him, so that his initial testimony is very likely to be true!"

Wei Shi frowned.

Now it's contradictory again.

If the first testimony of the scholar is true.

That shows that Tao Yang is actually accepting bribes and greedy for ink.

But the secret officials couldn't find any evidence of embezzlement of ink and silver in Tao Yang's house!

The ability of the Ouchi secret official is very clear, and he trusts him very much.

I don't dare to say it elsewhere, at least among this Jingshi, there is nothing that the secret officials of Ouchi can't find out.

Rather than believing that Tao Yang had the ability to hide those greedy silver money and evidence so that even the secret officials of the Great Inner could not find the slightest clue, Wei Shi was more willing to believe that the scholar's testimony was false.

"Could it be that the scholar and Wei Jue secretly colluded?"

Wei Qi asked again, and this time the secret official shook his head decisively and arched his hand:

"The identity and background of the scholar have been verified, and it is very clean!"

"He was originally a poor relative of Lord Tao's distant family, and he was the nephew of Lord Tao according to his generation, and he only came to Beijing a few days ago to join Lord Tao, and Lord Tao asked him to rotate with several other people as a scholar to accompany him."

"That day was the first time he went out to lecture with Lord Tao, and it was also the first time he went to the palace of Prince Jue to see Prince Jue.

Wei Qi was silent when he heard this, his brows were twisted into dead knots, he leaned back in his chair with his chest and lowered his head in contemplation, and the thoughts in his mind became more and more chaotic.

All the evidence was almost certain to be true, but it was all contradictory, which made him puzzled.

Suddenly, Wei Shi was shocked, raised his head sharply and was stunned, and then hurriedly waved his hand to let the secret officials in the house retreat.

After the secret official withdrew from the imperial study, he was the only one in the room.

Only then did he stand up, bow slightly to the compartment behind the beaded curtain, and said respectfully:

"Mr. Qiu!"

The compartment behind the beaded curtain has a bed and a small table, which was originally used as a place for occasional rest, tea and dinner during the review of the guard period.

There was no one there, not even the secret officials in the room.

At this time, there was a figure that appeared through the beaded curtain and sat on the bed.

Mr. Qiu!

There is only one person in the world who can make Wei Qi salute respectfully!

His existence is unknown, and even the oldest existence in the Inner Secret Division, who is the most confidant and cronie of the Wei Period, only knows that there is such a number one person.

Just know that his surname is revenge, revenge of revenge.

For the rest, as for whether he is a man or a woman, how he cultivates, what he looks like, what his full name is, and how old he is, I don't know anything.

Because these things can be faked.

Except for the Wei period, no one in the whole world has seen the true face of this person, and no one knows half of his information.

Even Wang Duobao, who has been fighting with Wei for tens of thousands of years, only knows that there is such a number one person.

knew that from the very beginning, it was this Mr. Qiu who assisted Wei Qi all the way to give advice, which helped Wei Qi repeatedly thwart his plan and laid the foundation for David.

This person ranked second on the list of what Wang Duobao wanted to kill, second only to Wei Qi!

Wang Duobao even guessed that this Mr. Qiu could survive for such a long time, and he had been secretly assisting the Wei Period, and it was very likely that he was a great monk who rushed to the Void Realm, and he might even be a demigod.

Or maybe this Mr. Qiu is not a person, but a code name that has been passed down from generation to generation in a think tank.

Nothing is known.
