Chapter Seventy-Three: Creating Opportunities
In Yan Fuzhong, Yan Kaiping retreated left and right, and said to Qi Wanli: "Do you know, how many brothers and sisters does my Yan family have?"
Qi Wanli replied deliberately: "Of course I know, your Yan family has a total of five brothers and sisters, the eldest brother is a high-level scholar of the Polymath Society, the second brother is a big merchant in the capital, the third sister is the current queen, and the youngest uncle is naturally you." However, it seems that I have not heard much of the names of the four sons of the Yan family. ”
Yan Kai smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Dean Bai is not from the capital, so of course I don't know." In fact, above me, there is a fourth sister. ”
"Oh?" Qi Wanli pretended to be surprised, "I don't know about this. ”
Yan Kai said "um" and said: "It's just that my fourth sister was born stupid, and she hasn't been out of the house much since she was a child, and she has become a caged bird, so outsiders naturally don't know." ”
"Is there such a thing?" Qi Wanli said in surprise: "It seems that most of the cases handled by Jinyi Wei are related to this fourth young lady." ”
"Exactly. Yan Kai said with a straight face: "A few months ago, my fourth sister ...... Passed away. ”
Qi Wanli's face remained unchanged, and at a glance he could see that his expression was wrong and he was lying, but he didn't know anything, so he just asked lightly: "Could it be that there is something strange about this case?"
"Not really. Yan Kai sighed and said: "The fourth sister is a member of our Yan family, although she died unexpectedly, but the case is not difficult to investigate, it is nothing more than a fanatic who wants to make money, and he actually tried to sneak into my Yan family to steal treasures, but he ran into the fourth sister...... Alas. ”
This fanatic who wants to see money is your own Yan family, right? It's just that the wealth you see is much greater.
Qi Wanli also sighed, but the meaning was completely different.
Yan Kai did not doubt him, and continued: "At that time, there was a little maid beside the fourth sister, who was frightened when she saw the death of the fourth sister, and was worried that we would take her life, so she escaped from the capital without saying a word. This is not a big deal, a maid, if she escapes, she will escape. It's just that she knows about the fourth sister's stupidity, this is a matter of our Yan family's face, if she runs to the distant countryside and says something about something, it's nothing, but if she talks nonsense near the capital, let others know about our Yan family...... Alas, therefore, we are now trying to find this maid back. ”
The reasons are well written.
This is the true evaluation of Qi Wanli's heart.
He already knew from Li Chengkong that the reason why the Yan family wanted to kill Xiaosi was to cover up the impact of Yan Xuan's death and Yan Kai's overnight report to the palace. On that day, Yan Kai swaggered into the palace in a panic, and everyone knew that something had happened to the Yan family, but Yan Xuan's identity was too important, and he was tied to the survival of the Yan family, so no one could know about it, so the queen asked this little brother to kill his fourth sister with his own hands, causing a situation where someone in the Yan family died to confuse the public.
For this, of course, the queen had to make up a decent reason.
"I see. Qi Wanli shook his head and said: "Uncle Xiaoguo's festival mourning, just a maid, I believe you will find it soon." ”
"You're right. Yan Kai smiled: "I still want to thank Dean Bai for being willing to lend me the cheats." ”
"Thank you, Uncle Xiaoguo, for believing in this dean. Qi Wanli smiled: "After the dean goes back to sort it out, it will be sent to the house in the near future." ”
......
"Pan Darong, come here, I have something to say to you. ”
After returning to the hotel, Qi Wanli did not delay, and immediately called Pan Darong and instructed him to leave Xiaosi in another room.
"What's wrong?" Pan Darong was confused, picked up a glass of water and drank it.
"I went to Yanfu. Qi Wanli's first sentence made Pan Darong squirt out the water he had just entered.
He glared at Qi Wanli in shock: "Big brother, are you crazy!?"
"I'm not crazy. Qi Wanli shrugged: "This is purely an accident, but there are also unexpected gains." I met with the young son of the Yan family, ate a lot of snacks and fruits from him, and inquired about a lot of things. ”
Ten minutes later, Pan Darong was silent.
"I see. He frowned and said, "Then what should we do?"
Qi Wanli smiled and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Me?" Pan Darong pointed at himself and laughed dryly: "What right can I have, I just want their group of guys not to come to me and Xiaosi for trouble." ”
"Yo, you and Xiaosi?" Qi Wanli sneered: "Don't forget, she is the fourth lady of the Yan family after all." ”
"The fourth lady of the Yan family is dead. Pan Darong said solemnly.
Qi Wanli glanced at him deeply and said, "My original plan was to cure Xiaosi's brain disease, let her recover her senses and stop being stupid, and then help her win the Yan family and become the head of the Yan family, and all problems will naturally be solved." But it seems that you don't really want to see that. ”
Pan Darong said "yo" and said, "Big brother, I didn't expect you to consider my thoughts." ”
Without waiting for Qi Wanli to ridicule him, he hurriedly said: "My idea is much simpler and rude than yours, according to what you said before, first make things bigger, so that the Yan family will not dare to trouble us because of their face, and then go to a lawsuit seriously, put the Yan family's uncle who can't kill people into prison, and then let the court sentence Xiaosi and the Yan family to separate, and then it will be simple." ”
Qi Wanli was stunned at first, then slowly lowered his brows and nodded.
"Perhaps, you're right. ”
"Isn't it, big brother?" Pan Darong smiled and said: "It's okay to let Xiaosi and the Yan family separate, and it's easy to put the dignified uncle in prison?"
"Nothing is impossible. Qi Wanli said with a smile: "As long as the mind does not slip, there are always more ways than difficulties." ”
"Hey, that's a good statement, I've got to write it down. Pan Darong quipped: "Then what are you going to do next? Go and make a big fuss? Let the whole capital know that the fourth lady of the Yan family is not dead?"
"It's a last resort. ”
Qi Wanli waved his hand and said, "We can have another way. ”
"Now, we need to find a way to meet the queen without revealing Silk, and get a chance to talk to her alone. ”
"Huh?" Pan Darong raised his eyebrows, as if he understood something: "Do you want to use Xiaosi as a bargaining chip to negotiate with her?"
"Not bad. Qi Wanli tapped his fingers on the table and said, "Xiaosi is not just the fourth lady of the Yan family. The fact that she didn't die contains a greater meaning behind it, which is a price that the Yan family can't afford at the moment, but we can't give them too much time. ”
"But, how can we meet the queen?" Pan Darong scratched his head: "She has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and even if she leaves the palace, she will be hugged from front to back, how can she sit down and negotiate alone with you, a commoner with no official or lord?"
Suddenly, his eyes lit up: "By the way, we can find Li Chengkong!
"That's right. Qi Wanli laughed and said: "At that time, in the Hanging Pavilion, didn't he lift the forbidden spell that Zhao Yue gave you? You should have your own set of contact methods for playing talismans, right? Now you can contact him and pass on our request." ”
Pan Darong sighed lightly and said: "I didn't expect that this shadow that had been pressing on my heart for so many years would disappear so quickly, to be honest, I felt a little incredible." ”.
After all, he still didn't hesitate, and immediately stretched out his hand, waved it in the air, and drew a light blue rune, which quickly disappeared into the air and disappeared.
Qi Wanli, who saw this scene, suddenly said: "Speaking of which, I haven't gone to the bookstore on Ping'an Street called Haina Baichuan that you said, find that Boss Yi, and get the heavenly book you said." ”
"Then you go. Pan Darong stretched his waist and said: "Anyway, if you deal with the queen, it is estimated that he may not be able to come up with a way for a while." ”
"Then you really underestimate Li Chengkong. ”
Qi Wanli shook his head: "I estimate that within three minutes, there will be an echo." ”
In fact, he didn't wait for three minutes, and as soon as he finished saying this, a new blue rune appeared out of thin air in the air, split into two, and was imprinted on the brains of Qi and Pan respectively, and disappeared.
“......”
"I see. The two glanced at each other, and there was some shock in their eyes, which was amazed at Li Chengkong's magical means.
When this rune was imprinted on Qi Wanli's forehead, a stream of information appeared directly in his mind, which was exactly what Li Chengkong wanted to convey. This method is already a bit similar to Dark Yuan directly doing PPT to explain the topic in his mind, although it is much rougher, but it gives him the feeling that it is almost the same.
"In five days' time, there will be a royal hunt that only the royal family can participate in, and it will be a monster hunt, and the winner will receive a huge prize, and maybe even a knighthood. You can try to become a guest of the Yan family, as long as you can win on behalf of the Yan family, the queen will have a great chance of receiving you and rewarding you privately. ”
The rest of the information is the information about this royal hunting competition.
"The contestants are up to the fifth order?Well, it is understandable that most of the transcendents who are now seriously practicing to the sixth order are also in high positions and have their own property, and this competition is obviously to select new disciples and vassals for the royal family and nobles. This is just like the original transcendent and unregular ring competition, no one participates in the real fifth- and sixth-order competitions, their status is too high, and they hardly look down on that kind of competition, even if they participate, it is really just a competition; ”
"There is actually a sixth-order monster at the highest? Is this a monster captured by the army of the Shuo Dynasty from the north, such a dangerous monster, they actually dare to bring it back to the capital? It seems that these big people of the Shuo Dynasty have been comfortable for too long, and they can even do this kind of thing, if a sixth-order monster escapes to the city, how many casualties will it cause?"
Qi Wanli took some time to decipher the information sent by Li Chengkong.
Pan Darong happened to have done the same thing, he pondered for a moment and asked, "How do we do it?"
"I'm going to be a guest of the Yan family. Qi Wanli said without hesitation: "I happened to meet Yan Kai today, and it is only appropriate for me to make this request." But you have something to do, you help me get the book of day. If I want to get good results in the hunt and be received by the queen, I need to make a really decent result, and when the time comes, the runes you cultivate may be of great help to me. ”
"It's only been five days!" Pan Darong's eyes widened: "Five days is enough for you to cultivate?"
"Five days is enough. Qi Wanli smiled confidently: "How strong I am, don't you know?"
