Chapter 245: Coincidence
Li Shengxing returned to the inner hall, and when he arrived, he had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw that she was holding a letter with the unique pattern of the internal guard, Li Shengxing suddenly understood.
She sat casually on the Luohan bed, "What did you find? Those inner ghosts?"
Li Sheng, the ghost Li Sheng who was unscrupulous, still remembers that he arranged for his subordinates to investigate last time, and it is estimated that they found a lot of things.
"Shun Teng, I found a lot, and even a few of them are still the head of the internal guard, which is the old man of the King of Chu."
Li Shengxing was not surprised by this result, and she waited for the next step in the future.
"Tortured, after investigating according to his usual actions, he will try his best to clean up the remnants of the king of Chu."
"Looking at your posture, I'm afraid that there are a lot of people left behind by Brother Chu Wang." Li Shengxian half-jokingly.
The king of Chu was powerful back then, and he was the eldest son of Aya and an auxiliary minister, so he stretched his hand into the internal guard, so naturally there would not be only one henchman. Since there are so many henchmen, it seems that a few of them are in high positions, and it does not seem strange.
Liujin also chuckled.
"Anything else?" Li Shengxi opened his mouth casually.
When he heard this, he thought of something, and his expression narrowed, "There is one thing that may have something to do with Xiaoniang."
Li Shengxi's expression was slightly lighter, and he was involved in Xiaoniang again.
"The person who accepted Xiaoniang into the internal guard back then was the remnant of the King of Chu." Rujin frowned and spoke.
Xiaoniang's identity is already embarrassing because of Qu Zhili, even though it is better now, but if such a thing happens again, then Xiaoniang's situation will be more embarrassing and more difficult.
For the sake of the internal ghosts, the internal guards vigorously investigated, which can be described as a rumor. It is difficult for Xiaoniang to be alone, especially in this case, Xiaoniang will rarely have to be investigated, or even punished.
The punishment among the internal guards, they naturally know that they are unwilling to use such a punishment on their own people.
Xiaoniang has superb medical skills and is in the internal guard, but she is a person after all.
"How to check, how to check, but don't punish Xiaoniang." Li Shengxi said categorically.
Xiaoniang is her best friend, but also her arm.
Without evidence, she won't do anything to Xiaoniang easily. I won't see others do anything to Xiaoniang.
"My subordinates understood." Liujin breathed a sigh of relief, and she continued, "For this matter, my subordinates have ordered someone to investigate the old things from fifteen years ago."
Yingxiao was abducted fifteen years ago, and it was because of this that she entered the internal guard, and now the internal guard is checking Yingxiao, so she will naturally start from what happened fifteen years ago.
"Did you find anything?" Li Shengxi asked casually.
"It's because I didn't find anything that it looks suspicious."
Li Sheng was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean you haven't found anything?"
"Xiao Niang was abducted and sold because of the negligence of the servants in the family, and the people under her hand investigated this matter and found a very strange thing, and today, the old servants and relatives of the Qu family have almost disappeared cleanly." There is no sale in the present day, and there is too much information in this sentence.
"Back then, I sent someone to check on Qu Zhili, saying that he was born with a Buddha relationship, and lived in the temple for several years, and then the Qu family fought fiercely, and the lineage was almost extinct. After he came back, he used some means to make the Qu family pay the due price. Once a son of heaven and a courtier, since he liquidated the old people of the Qu family, it is normal for those servant women to be sent and sold." Li Shengxing frowned, not knowing why Yingxiao felt strange.
Rong Zhi on the side was slightly distracted, but he didn't expect that Qu Zhili, who looked polite and elegant, had such a bloody past.
But come to think of it, a person who is really as gentle as jade and as pure as snow may be able to become Li Shengxi's friend, but it is absolutely difficult to help Li Shengxian liquidate the Mu family.
"It is true that the subordinates of the side branch of the Mu clan were sent to be sold, but the descendants of the branch disappeared cleanly and died for various reasons, but they all had the same result, that is, they all died."
"It's not that he died that year," Li Shengxing's words abruptly
Stop, the so-called hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff, back then, the Qu family was infighting, even if the side branches were ruthless, killing the henchmen of the Qu family's branches was enough, what did you do to kill ordinary people?
"Did you send someone to check the temple where Qu Zhili lived back then?" Li Shengxi raised his eyes.
Rujin nodded, "My subordinates ordered someone to go."
"No trace?" Rongzhi asked.
"That temple is in Jinzhong, and Qu Zhili, a place on the edge of Jinzhong, is a Qu family who returned at the age of fifteen, and that was ten years ago."
"Ten years ago," Li Shengxi's brow furrowed.
"What happened ten years ago?" Rong Zhi is a Qi person, and he doesn't know much about the situation in the Southern Jin Dynasty, but he has indeed heard some things, and as soon as the words came out, Rong Zhi came back to his senses, "Is it the battle of Wangling Pass?"
Li Shengxing nodded.
Ten years ago, the Battle of Wangling Pass.
The Southern Jin Dynasty was defeated, Xirong captured three states in a row, and after capturing the city, he began to slaughter the city, even if Shen Jize came to regain his homeland, but the three states had already become empty cities, empty cities in the real sense.
The battle of Wangling Pass can be described as a heavy loss, and the situation is tragic, even Rong Zhi has heard of it.
"That temple belongs to one of these three states?" Li Shengxian asked.
Rujin nodded.
Li Shengxi was a little stunned, not because the clue was completely broken, but because of the massacre ten years ago. It is precisely because of this massacre that it is impossible for the Southern Jin Dynasty to establish diplomatic relations with Xirong, let alone the so-called harmony.
Later, the situation was reversed, and the Xijon people asked for peace, but the elder brother sternly refused. In fact, when I think about it, when the Xijon people asked to marry the princess, if Brother was really reluctant to her, he could actually refuse so directly, and it was a big deal to marry the clan maid and the palace maid - but Brother didn't.
Since my brother ascended the throne, there has never been a wedding car out of the jam.
The same will be true if she ascends to a high position in the future.
"The composer is eccentric." Li Shengxi put aside other thoughts.
"But now the clues are all broken." There is some chagrin in Rujin.
It can only be said that it is too coincidental.
"Keep checking, I remember that the monks in the temple have traveled abroad." Li Shengxi's eyes sank slightly.
Liujin nodded, revealing a little embarrassed, "It's just one thing, when the Xirong people entered the customs, they didn't just slaughter the city."
Burning, killing and looting, almost everything, all the official documents were destroyed, all the treasures were plundered, and the fire in Wangling Pass was sky-high, even if someone really escaped because of his travels, but in such a chaotic situation, it is too easy for someone to fish in troubled waters and kill people.
"Don't worry, it's going to be Jinzhong soon. And Qu Jia, I will see Qu Zhili again before leaving."
