Volume 2: The Red Lotus Case of the Ancient Temple Chapter 45: The Daughter of King Jing'an
"Dang!" Just as he was about to stab Duan Ming's heart, a silver light flashed, and a figure appeared behind Duan Ming, stopping the flying knife.
"Haha, old criminal, you're finally here." Seeing this figure, Duan Ming's face suddenly became happy, and he said with a smile.
"Mr. Duan, can you call me or someone from the Spiegel Division to accompany you next time?" The person who came was Xing Qianqiu, and I saw a trace of anger on his face at the moment: "If I hadn't gone to look for you and saw that you weren't there, I would have come out to look for you, otherwise you would have died!" ”
"Hey, hey, sorry, sorry!" Duan Ming smiled and pointed to the woman wearing the clothes of the Spiegel Division behind the man in black: "I'm also here to follow her, so I can't follow her with a bunch of people." But I was careless. ”
"Humph!" Xing Qianqiu snorted coldly, and then his eyes fell on the woman not far away, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Why are you here!" ”
"I ......" the woman suddenly blushed: "I'm here to incense!" ”
"Incense?" Xing Qianqiu frowned, then shook his head: "I don't care what you're here for, now that there is a murder in this Fanxing Temple, and the Immortal Sect is involved, you leave immediately." ”
"No, I'm not leaving." The woman lowered her head and said softly: "Brother Xing, the Mufo Festival is over, in fact, I should have left." It was precisely because of the fire in the Daxiong Treasure Hall that I did not leave, and now it is even more impossible for me to leave. ”
"Wait, you mean you were here when the Daxiong Hall caught fire?" Duan Ming interrupted suddenly.
"Exactly." The woman nodded.
"But didn't the monks in the temple say that on the day of the Buddha Festival, there were no pilgrims living there?" Duan Ming's brows furrowed.
"I live here, and only the abbot of Xuanbei and the two masters of Pure Heart and Pure Law know." The woman replied with a smile.
"Old criminal, what is the identity of this person?" As soon as Duan Ming heard this, he looked at Xing Qianqiu.
According to the woman's answer, she will definitely not be an ordinary person.
"This?" Xing Qianqiu also smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The daughter of King Jing'an-'s 'Pearl County Lord' Li Wan'er!" ”
"King Jing'an!" As soon as Duan Ming heard this, his eyes suddenly widened.
You must know that if there is anyone in this Great Qi who will definitely not be provoked, His Majesty is the one now, the hall master of the Hall of Eternal Life is one, and the last remaining one is the King of Jing'an.
Even if Duan Ming had never heard of the Hall of Eternal Life in the past, he had heard of the name of King Jing'an early on.
After all, this person is too legendary, wine shops, teahouses, hotels, restaurants, cruise ships, painting boats, study halls and theaters, as long as there is a place where someone tells a story, it will inevitably be inseparable from this King of Jing'an!
King Jing'an is not a prince with real power, surnamed Li, and the current emperor is not the same clan, for many years has been living next to the palace in the capital, except for dozens of servants, there is not a single soldier.
Even the guards in the palace are the imperial city guards sent by the emperor himself, and trespassing into the Jing'an palace is no different from trespassing on the palace, and the nine clans can be killed and exterminated on the spot!
If it is placed on someone else, there is no doubt that the current emperor will put him under house arrest.
But on King Jing'an, no one will think so.
King Jing'an, King Jing'an, the reason why he chose these two words is because as long as he is in one day, then the entire Daqi will inevitably be "quiet and long-lasting"!
The reason why King Jing'an has such a high status is because King Jing'an is not only like a brother to His Majesty today, but also has great achievements in war.
The king of Jing'an is called Li Xun, when the first emperor died suddenly inexplicably, the queen was the later queen mother, who wanted to take sole power and rule the world as a woman.
And now His Majesty has almost been overshadowed before he ascends the throne.
The government and the opposition were excited, and they wrote to condemn but could not do anything.
It was Li Xun, the commander of the imperial city at that time, who entered the imperial city alone in the starry night, entered the queen mother's bedroom with one person and one sword, and stabbed the queen mother to death.
In this way, His Majesty can successfully ascend the throne as emperor.
As soon as His Majesty ascended the throne as emperor, he purged the opposition of his ministers and the opposition, and all the successive party members were purged, but this also led to many important official positions being unavailable.
The surrounding countries moved when they heard the wind, and the armies of Fuling, Judou, and Dahui pressed the border, and approached the imperial city of Daqi.
Everyone in the imperial city was in danger, and many generals retreated.
The emperor had no choice but to promote Li Xun, who had been escorted to prison and waiting to be beheaded, and appointed him as the general of Huwei, leading 8,000 guards to the front line to support.
At the same time, the emperor began to prepare for the relocation of the capital in case of emergency.
I never thought that as soon as Li Xun arrived at the front line, he purged the army, broke the three armies in a row, and in just two months, he beheaded the commanders of Fuling and Judou, and only the commander of Dahui, Mengcheng, fled back to Dahui, and did not dare to enter Daqi again for life.
Then, Li Xun fought in the south and the north, and his military achievements were impressive, and his prestige even far exceeded that of the emperor, and the surrounding countries were terrified.
And just after the world was stable and the emperor's power was consolidated, Li Xun took the initiative to hand over the military power and asked to stay in the capital to be an idle prince.
The emperor persuaded him several times to no avail, and finally had to crown him as the "King of Jing'an", enjoying the privileges of "entering the imperial city at any time", "going to the palace with a sword", and "meeting the Son of Heaven without kneeling".
His daughter was deeply loved by the emperor and empress, and was given the title of "Pearl County Lord" and enjoyed the same privileges as the "eldest princess".
And how could such a character appear here?
"Li Wan'er has seen sir." Li Wan'er saluted Duan Ming slightly, and said, "Wan'er apologizes to you for Uncle Meng, just now he made a disproportionate shot and almost hurt Mr. ”
"Ah, it's okay, it's okay." Duan Ming hurriedly waved his hand: "I'm not injured either, I'm fine." ”
"County Lord, you just said that you lived here on the day of the Buddha Festival, so what have you seen?" Xing Qianqiu asked with a frown.
"If you don't see anything, why do you think we're staying until this time?" The man in black said coldly, "However, torture boy, your martial arts have grown again." ”
"Senior Meng is polite." Xing Qianqiu hugged his fists and said: "I just don't know what the two of you saw?" Why didn't you come to me before and tell me? ”
"I ......" Li Wan'er lowered her head and said with a red face: "Brother Xing always looks down on me, I just want to solve this case before you, so that Brother Xing will not look down on me in the future." ”
"Nonsense!" Xing Qianqiu frowned and sighed: "County Lord, solving the case is our business for the Spiegel Division, you are the county lord, you should stay away from this danger." ”
"It's not dangerous, Uncle Meng has been with me, it's not a threat at all!" Li Wan'er hurriedly said.
"That's not good, although Senior Meng's martial arts are extremely high, it is inevitable that there may be omissions." Xing Qianqiu said: "If someone poisons you, can Senior Meng protect you thoroughly?" Be obedient, wait until tomorrow morning, you will return to Beijing as soon as possible, this is really not a good place. ”
"Oh." Li Wan'er nodded: "Okay, but I'll tell you what I know first." ”
"Okay." Xing Qianqiu nodded......
