Chapter XXXVIII

The reason why there is such an arrangement in front of the whole Qingluan clan is also Zhou Zheng's idea!

Mei Yu's future picture is big, it is the entire Kunlun void!

Therefore, as the demon king, she not only needs to give great grace to the Qingluan clan, but also to get the help of the Qingluan clan when she needs it. At the same time, she must also have a group of followers and cronies who are only loyal to her, the demon king, to strengthen her own strength.

Today's Qingluan clan is in a gap period without a demon king, and it is the best time to attract loyalists and dig into the wall.

Performing such a play today, after a year and a half, everyone will see that after the cultivation strength of Yingyu, Lanqin, and Yao Rong has risen greatly, it will definitely attract a large number of followers of the Qingluan clan! It will even attract followers of the Kirin Clan and the Black Dragon Clan!

At that time, Mei Yu could completely rely on the demon pill left by her mother to build an elite army that was completely her own! And with this army, expand the territory and form your own sphere of influence!

Only at that time did Mei Yu really gain a firm foothold in Kunlun Xu!

The high-level leaders of Qingyun and Qingluan are not fools, and a few people have also guessed Mei Yu's purpose.

However, Mei Yu has made great contributions to the Qingluan clan, and now her reputation is extremely high. Moreover, today I only asked two clansmen of the Qingluan clan as cronies, and Yao Rong also belonged to the family of the Department of Law and Punishment.

Mei Yu's request is reasonable, and it is not too much at all. If you stand up to stop the opposition at this time, you will be despised and despised by the entire Qingluan clan, and it will be counterproductive!

In the midst of congratulations, Mei Yu left the main hall with Yingyu, Lan Qin, and Yao Rong and returned to her own palace.

Now, Ying Yu has secretly transferred the 20,000 Wolf Yuan army that had stayed in Luqi Town back to Kunlun Xu, and found a secret place to train this army. This army is basically Lan Qin and Yingyu's old subordinates, and now it has completely become Mei Yu's most trusted pro-army!

Mei Yu gave full authority to Ying Yu for training, and Yao Rong was solely responsible for the reclamation of barren land and the construction of businesses and cities.

The Qingluan clan now has a large area of vacant land, and Qingyun and the clan elders discussed and gave a large piece of land in the five cities that were in contact with the Qilin clan as a thank you gift.

Mei Yu did not give in, and directly appointed Yao Rong as the demon lord of the five cities to operate and manage these five cities.

Mei Yu kept Lan Qin by her side and was in charge of her own diet and daily life. This is his aunt, and she is the closest person to herself in this world, except for Zhou Zheng. Mei Yu, who is used to loneliness, does not want her aunt to leave her side again, but is only willing to be with her aunt every day.

Lan Qin naturally felt sorry for his little master, and was very willing to take care of Mei Yu with all his heart. It's just that she didn't expect that in Mei Yu's mind, her status would be ranked second to Zhou Zheng. If I knew, I don't know how sad it would be!

Mei Yu didn't know why Zhou Zheng occupied such an important position in her heart? There is no love between her and Zhou Zheng, but more like a kind of family affection that keeps parting.

From the moment she broke out of her shell, the first person she saw was Zhou Zheng. She didn't know why she chose to follow him so without hesitation? Anyway, she and Zhou Zheng felt very cordial together, and there was an indescribable sense of security.

The experience of accompanying and supporting each other with Zhou Zheng made Mei Yu unforgettable! Perhaps, they are all people who are only shadows, and the warmth of the group is the most moving!

Let's not mention Mei Yu. Zhou Zheng, the person she cared about the most, was now walking in the corridor of the Holy Snow Palace.

Long Hai's leaked information made Zhou Zheng sleep, like a fish in his throat, and he couldn't be at peace for a moment, and he had to find out the enemy hidden deep in the Qingluan clan as soon as possible and was ready to assassinate his life at any time.

Zhou Zheng didn't believe what Qingqin told him, and in order to help his sister, he secretly revealed that giving him a purple jade box was the right answer. I didn't believe what Qingyun said, she didn't remember which jade box her mandarin duck jade bracelet was placed in.

What was in that purple jade box, and why did he have to open it with his own hands? Zhou Zheng must figure out this matter as soon as possible!

Zhou Zheng thought of a breakthrough point, that is, the piece of jade jade that Zhong Yi would destroy if he died.

He drew the figure from memory, and secretly consulted Shengdong.

Shengdong is the person that Zhou Zheng believes in the Qingluan clan the most. However, Zhou Zheng didn't tell Shengdong too much news, but only asked him if he had seen this style of jade pendant.

Seeing the graphics, Shengdong was surprised and hurriedly asked Zhou Zheng, "Where have you seen this jade pendant?" ”

"Do you know the origin of this jade pendant?" Zhou Zheng did not answer Shengdong's question directly, but asked him rhetorically.

"Of course! This is Qingyun's close-fitting jade pendant! It was the amulet given to her by the Demon King when she was born. In the entire clan, few people have seen it. It's also because I've been playing with Qingyun since I was a kid and I've met a few times by accident. Tell me, where did you see this jade pendant? ”

"Qingyun's close-fitting jade pendant?" Zhou Zheng was taken aback, "Why do you ask that?" Could it be that this jade pendant is not on Qingyun now? Zhou Zheng heard a hint of difference.

"Just over half a month ago, I went to look for Qingyun, and she was rummaging through the cabinets to find this jade pendant! She said that her jade pendant was missing, and she searched the entire Holy Snow Palace but couldn't find it! She also cried for days! ”

"What? Lost? Half a month ago? Zhou Zheng suddenly smelled a smell of conspiracy. So, did she tell anyone about it? ”

"Naturally not! You don't know her yet? was kind-hearted, and was afraid that the maids in the palace would be punished for this, so they didn't dare to tell the first demon king. She just asked me to pay more attention and help her find this jade pendant in private! Tell me, where did you see this jade pendant? Hurry up and find it, and send it to Qingyun now! ”

Zhou Zheng sighed, "I'm afraid I won't be able to find it again!" Then, he told Shengdong about the interrogation of Zhong Yi in 1510.

"Nope! This is definitely a planting! "Shengdong is very smart, and he immediately understood that someone was trying to frame Qingyun behind his back.

"Are you sure that this jade pendant was lost half a month ago?" Zhou Zhenghu looked at Shengdong suspiciously.

"I swear by my Dao heart! It was indeed half a month ago that Qingyun lost this jade pendant! ”

"Could it be," Zhou Zheng said as tactfully as possible, "Did Qingyun deliberately lie to you?" ”

Sheng Dong stood up stiffly, pointed at Zhou Zheng and said angrily, "Zhou Zheng, I don't allow you to slander Qingyun like this!" She's not that kind of person! ”

"Brother Shengdong, don't be angry, I naturally know Qingyun's personality! Come, sit, sit down! Zhou Zheng hurriedly calmed Shengdong's emotions, "I'm worried, Qingyun is simple-minded, and she has been deceived in this matter!" Calm down, let's analyze and analyze together! ”

"Qingyun will never lie!" Shengdong was still angry about Zhou Zheng's suspicion of Qingyun, "Think about it, take 10,000 steps back and say, she is the real murderer behind the scenes." She should get the word out and let everyone know about it. In this way, wouldn't she be completely free of suspicion? Why didn't she say anything? Tell me if it's because I happened to go to her and ran into it! Don't you think it's too stupid for her to be the murderer behind the scenes? ”

Zhou Zheng nodded seriously, "Brother Shengdong, you're right!" From this point of view, Qingyun was indeed wronged! So who will blame Qingyun? ”

Shengdong shook his head, "I can't guess this. Qingyun treats people very well, and has never punished anyone for trivial matters. Supposedly, she shouldn't have enemies! ”

"Have you ever seen a purple jade box in the Holy Snow Palace?"

Zhou Zheng brought up the matter of the purple jade box again. He wanted to know as much as he could about the origin of this purple jade box. And Shengdong, as Qingyun's youngest and eldest brother, often goes in and out of the Holy Snow Palace, and may be able to ask some useful clues about him.

"Jade box? Purple jade box? I'm not impressed. Sheng Dong thought about it carefully, and it didn't seem that he had seen any purple jade boxes.

"It's the one used in the competition... Oh yes, you didn't take the competition. It's a boxy one with patterns on it..."Zhou Zheng described the shape of the jade box as completely as possible to Shengdong.

In the end, Shengdong still shook his head, "In Qingyun's dormitory, the jewelry on the head is the kind of jade box you said, with many colors. However, there doesn't seem to be a purple jade box. You don't know, Qingyun doesn't like purple, and there is no purple thing in the Holy Snow Palace! ”

Zhou Zheng suddenly realized. No wonder he always felt that something was wrong there, and every time he thought of the purple jade box, he always felt that something was wrong. It turns out that there is no purple in the Holy Snow Palace!

How could a princess who doesn't like purple put her beloved mandarin duck bracelet in a purple box?

However, if the purple jade box didn't come from the Holy Snow Palace, then where did it come from? Who can have the ability to steal beams and change pillars, replace the jade box that really holds the mandarin duck bracelet in a grand manner, and send the purple jade box to the competition site?

"Nope! I think about it! Shengdong sat up sharply, "I remember one time, I saw this purple jade box. Yes, it's purple! At the time, I was still wondering, thinking that Qingyun was starting to like purple! ”

"What was the scene?" Zhou Zheng became very urgent.

"Scenes? I, I can't remember! But, I'm sure, what I saw was a purple jade box. ”

"In the Holy Snow Palace?" Zhou just didn't have a good chance of catching a clue, and he didn't want to cut it off. So, he eagerly helped Shengdong to reminisce together.

"Like, yes. But I'm not too sure. Shengdong frowned, he was also thinking desperately, but he couldn't remember the scene at that time!

Looking at Shengdong's painful appearance, Zhou Zheng couldn't bear it. He patted Shengdong on the shoulder, "It's okay! If you can't think of it, forget it! Think about it later! ”

Zhou Zheng changed the topic again, "How did you fall when you broke through the level at that time?" ”

"Speaking of which, I'm confused right now!" Shengdong looked a little angry, "I passed the level well, and I have passed the sixteenth level, but in the seventeenth level, I just entered, and before I could see the appearance of the level, I stepped on the air and fell down in a daze."

If it weren't for the Qingluan clan's own level, I would have wanted to fight with the person who designed the level! What do you mean? Didn't you get forced to fall off the level when you couldn't get through the level? How can you design such a trap that is caught off guard without even letting you break in? ”

Zhou Zheng didn't speak for a while, and he knew the rules of breaking through at that time. Like Shengdong, he was completely manipulated and forced out of the competition.

Thinking about what Shengdong just said about seeing the purple jade box, Zhou Zheng suddenly had a bold guess.

It is very likely that Shengdong was secretly cleansed of his memories after seeing the purple jade box. But, for unknown reasons, the amnestics weren't clean. Therefore, that person, the one who had cleansed Shengdong's memory, ruined the plan in order to prevent Shengdong from remembering the purple jade box at the competition site. So, just do it on the level and forcibly eliminate Shengdong in advance!

This also explains another of Zhou Zheng's doubts, that is, why it was the pumice stone that was left at that time instead of Shengdong.

Suddenly, Zhou Zheng thought of Qingyun's two additional tests that he shouldn't have. The first time was the word "two". The other time was to let him carry the purple jade box to the Holy Snow Palace.

The first time, it was when she had won the competition and was about to open the purple jade box, and the princess's maid took the question.

Why add another question at that time? Could it be that Qingyun didn't want Zhou Zheng to open the purple jade box?

Zhou Zheng suddenly brightened! Right! It must be so, yes! Qingyun knew about this purple jade box, and she also knew what was inside. And that thing, Qingyun is extremely reluctant to let it be opened! Therefore, I thought of this trick on the spot, as a remedy.

However, why was she so perfunctory when she personally asked Qingyun about the purple jade box? Could it be that she has something unspeakable? Or, is someone listening?

Now, thinking about Qingyun's sick body, Zhou Zheng suddenly had a bad premonition, and an incredible idea suddenly popped up in his mind: Qingyun was controlled!

If so, it all makes sense!

Qingyun sent the purple jade box to the competition site under control, and the title of the mandarin duck bracelet was a disguise, and the final result was to let Zhou Zheng open the purple jade box.

There is nothing stealing in this, everything is done by Qingyun, and naturally there is no doubt left.

However, Qingyun, who was controlled, suddenly came to her senses for a while, so she eagerly sent her maid to add a test question, in order to prevent Zhou Zheng from opening the jade box.

But, why is there a second test question, so that Zhou Zheng can go to the Holy Snow Palace with the purple jade box?

Zhou Zheng's mind was full of lightning, and he thought of a person: that maid!

The maid did look very similar twice before and after, but she wasn't a person before and after! The reason why Zhou Zheng was so sure was because of the difference in the fragrance on the two maids. At that time, Zhou was at the competition site and felt the difference, but it didn't attract his attention.

Looking back on it now, in addition to their extremely similar appearances, the two maids had obvious differences in their mannerisms and movements.

If this is the case, it means that in the second question, Qingyun is controlled again. And the second question was made by the person who controlled Qingyun. His purpose was to eagerly want Zhou Zheng to open that purple jade box!

If it weren't for the sudden poison of the demon king at that time, maybe that person would have really succeeded!

Thinking of this, Zhou Zheng suddenly remembered Qingqin again. What role does Qingqin play in this? Why did she tell herself about the existence of the purple jade box? Are you reminding yourself? Or do you want to lure yourself into opening the purple jade box? Is it possible that she was also controlled?

Thinking about the scene when Qingqin saw the jade jade pendant, she recognized that the jade pendant was Qingyun's personal thing, so she didn't open her mouth to confess Qingyun whether she was dead or alive.

Does she not want to believe that Qingyun is behind the poisoning of her father, or does she deliberately want to cover it up, but it arouses Zhou Zheng's suspicions, so that Zhou Zheng holds on to this clue, and finally naturally finds out to Qingyun's head?

In fact, Zhou Zheng did the same!

However, could Qingqin, like Shengdong, feel that this is someone else's framing of her sister? So, subconsciously choose to protect Qingyun?

Zhou Zheng was difficult to tell for a while!

Things are getting more and more complicated!
