Chapter XVI: Incidents

After Chen Yu reported his experience to the official, he attracted considerable attention, but the investigation by the government yamen has not yielded any results until now.

As time passes, day by day.

What Chen Yu feared did not happen next.

As if nothing had happened that night, no uninvited guests came to disturb him after that night.

However, something big has happened in the capital recently.

Even Chen Yu, who is almost two o'clock a day, has heard about it.

It happened three days after Chen Yu's attack.

Li Xuebin, the fourth place who was supposed to take the test, was arrested in the inn, and his life and death are currently uncertain, and there are obvious traces of struggle at the scene.

As soon as this incident came out, the entire capital was shaken.

There are people who dare to do something to the people who participated in the examination after the examination, and even after the ranking, they already have the fourth place in the examination with the title of Gongshi.

With the fermentation of this matter, before Li Xuebin was arrested, the fact that Chen Yu was also attacked was also picked up, which put many people in danger for a while.

However, what is reassuring is that I heard that on the day of the incident, it was reported to the imperial palace, and the current emperor, angered, ordered a thorough investigation of the matter.

Especially all the people who have come to the capital recently, once they find the culprit, they will not be spared.

After this order was issued, nothing like this happened, and even some petty theft seemed to be extinct in the capital.

……

After Chen Yu learned about the whole story, he also thought about what happened that night, and thought about it.

The original target was him, and he didn't mean to hurt Chen Yu, but when he found that Chen Yu was a little difficult to deal with, he set his eyes on Li Xuebin, the fourth place in the exam.

Not only that, Chen Yu, who knew a lot about the strength of the man in black that night, knew that if the two were the same person, and Li Xuebin had never studied martial arts, or if his martial arts were not high, it would be impossible to leave traces of struggle, but now there are obvious traces left.

Besides, the imperial court itself will not deliberately spread such scandals in the face of such scandals, even if it does not stop the fermentation of rumors.

But looking at the current situation, it is as if everyone wants to know about it with such fanfare.

The reason for this is either because of the brain problems of the relevant personnel, or because the official has full confidence that Li Xuebin can be brought back intact.

Another point is that when the other party attacked Chen Yu, it was in a somewhat remote corner, and the patrolling officials almost didn't hear the movement and could explain it, while Li Xuebin was in the accommodation provided by the government, in an inn near the center of the capital, and the surrounding vigilance should be quite high, but it didn't cause the slightest movement.

The last doubt, if the other party is not afraid of angering the imperial court, they can do it on the way to Beijing to rush to the exam, of course, this can also explain that these people want to make it bigger, and they want to slap the face of the imperial court, so they specifically choose to do it in the capital, and it can also explain why they choose to be the ones who are still at the top of the test results.

Thinking about these things in his mind, Chen Yu could draw conclusions.

Either there is really a force so hidden in the Great Liang, so huge that they are not afraid of the retaliation of the Great Liang Imperial Court, the reason is that the Great Liang has become more and more strict with the people in the rivers and lakes over the years, and wants to provoke the Great Liang to prove that they are not easy to provoke.

Either this matter itself was done by the Great Liang Imperial Court, and he wanted to use it as an excuse to clean up the rivers and lakes, but the target was a certain one or a few of the five sects, or the entire Jianghu, because Chen Yu didn't know the strength of the imperial court, so he didn't know it very well.

However, Chen Yu is biased towards the latter, and it is the Liang court itself that does this.

This can also make a reasonable explanation for the fact that the man in black would rather be injured himself than carry out a fatal attack on Chen Yu that night, and it can also make sense in other aspects.

……

It's been another deep night.

In the secluded courtyard in the capital where the man in black went after his failure to deal with Chen Yu.

At this time, in a side room, six people had gathered.

The leader was the middle-aged man at the time.

They are the personnel of the intelligence network established by the five largest Jianghu sects in the capital in order to communicate with each other.

But this is only on the surface, in fact, they still have their own intelligence networks, and the view of the gateway between the various sects is not so easy to eliminate, maybe the hatred between these sects is even greater than that of the imperial court.

Now they are only forced to stand together superficially.

The middle-aged man looked a little "ugly" and said to the other five people, "Who did it?" ”

"We still have so many people in the capital, and now that the capital is under martial law, under such a strict search, even I may not be able to get out, and now many of our people have been arrested by the government."

After the five people below glanced at each other, the one on the far right said "hesitantly", "That...... Who might I know? ”

If Chen Yu was here, maybe he could judge from the figure of this person that he was the man in black that night, and he was also the one who captured Li Xuebin.

"Who is it? Is it our people? The middle-aged man asked in a tone that seemed to be a little eager.

"Hmmm......"

The middle-aged man frowned, "If you have something to say, what are you doing?" And there are no outsiders. ”

"I'm talking about ...... Yuanyang faction related. ”

With that, the man looked at the other of the six.

The man suddenly looked a little anxious, "Wang Tianyang, don't you want to spew blood, what does this have to do with our Yuanyang faction?" ”

"You forgot? The young master of your Yuanyang faction is also in the capital? The person who was called Wang Tianyang by that person retorted.

"What's wrong with our young master? He just came to the capital to see the world, how could he cause trouble. After saying this, this person himself was a little lacking in confidence.

He still has some understanding of his own young master, his strength ranks among the top among his peers, and he has reached the late stage of the day after tomorrow, and he has practiced kung fu horizontally, even in the face of the master of the peak of the day after tomorrow, he can retreat with his whole body.

is also extremely arrogant and violent, to say that this matter is their young master, it is really possible.

But that's definitely not the way to go.

"Oh, do you believe that? You don't know what your young master looks like? Then the other man sneered.

"Yes, if it's somewhere else, it's fine, what kind of place is the capital, you also let him mess around, or in such a special period, do you think your Yuanyang faction is still the same Yuanyang faction before?"

"That's, that's it, poke the big basket."

For a moment, the rest of the people laughed at the crowd of the Yuanyang faction.

They also have a lot of resentment in their hearts, and they just took this opportunity to vent and did nothing, but now they are worried that their lives may be in danger at any time.

"But you don't have any evidence to prove that it was our young master who did it."

"You will know after listening to what I said, when I met the young master of the Yuanyang Sect, it was in a ...... In the green building. ”

"At that time, your young master and that Li Xuebin fell in love with a girl at the same time, and then under the competition, Li Xuebin made a poem on the spot and won the competition."

"And that Li Xuebin, according to my investigation, has only had such a conflict with your young master since he came to the capital."

After finishing speaking, Wang Tianyang gave the rest of the people a look that the rest of you would experience by yourself, and then kept silent.

And the middle-aged man who had been quietly listening to the communication between several people gave Wang Tianyang a vague look of appreciation, and he almost believed the story.

But regardless of whether this matter is or not, after today, even if someone really investigates whether the young master of the Yuanyang Sect and Li Xuebin had a conflict in that Qinglou that day, they will come to a positive conclusion.

And if Chen Yu is the target, one of the protagonists of this story will change from Li Xuebin to Chen Yu.

"Okay, everyone don't quarrel, the most important thing now is where is the young master of the Yuanyang faction now?"

The rest of the people, you look at me, I look at you, and they all say they don't know.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man sneered a little in his heart, at this level, he still wanted to fight against the imperial court?
