"This ......" Listening to Duan Ming's words, Dong Lao was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "Impossible, absolutely impossible." ”

"Why?" Duan Ming looked at Dong Lao and asked in a deep voice.

"No why, it's absolutely impossible!" Dong Lao said with great conviction.

"So, is there such a possibility?" Duan Ming said again: "The voodoo villain is indeed not made by the old torturer, but you. ”

"It's you, the old criminal who colluded with Dugu Haoyue and united to frame him! It was you who entered the bedroom of the old torturer that no one could enter! It's you who want to end up dying in old age! ”

"This, I ......" Dong Lao was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Duan Ming to say this.

Suddenly, Dong Lao gritted his teeth and shouted: "Yes, it's me, everything is done by me!" ”

"So." After a pause, Dong Lao continued: "I admit it, take me away quickly, kill me!" ”

"......" Duan Ming stared at Dong Lao's eyes for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "I know, it's not you." ”

"What nonsense you are talking about, I did it!" Dong Lao's eyes showed a pleading look: "I don't know who you are, but I believe that you must be good friends with the young master, this matter is what I did, and the voodoo villain is what I put it!" ”

"I'm over the age of six, it's not a pity to die!" Dong Lao's voice was a little choked: "Please......"

"No, you didn't do it, you just wanted to take all the blame on yourself." Duan Ming said and slowly stood up: "I actually really doubted you just now, but now, I believe that it was definitely not you who did it!" ”

"You ......" Dong Lao grabbed Duan Ming's collar, and the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out: "It's really me!" ”

"Dong Lao." Duan Ming looked at Dong Lao's eyes and said in a deep voice: "I am indeed a friend of Lao Xing, but I don't have any power now, I am not the official in charge of this matter, and all the investigations are also carried out privately. So, it's useless for you to coerce me. ”

"......" Dong Lao's body trembled constantly, he could understand the meaning of Duan Ming's words, and let go of his hand weakly.

"Dong Lao." Duan Ming patted Dong Lao's shoulder: "But don't worry, I will definitely do my best to restore the innocence of the old man." ”

With that, Duan Ming walked outside.

Just as Duan Ming was about to walk out, he suddenly stopped, didn't look back, but said calmly: "Also, Dong Lao, don't think about doing stupid things like that just now, the person who laid out the layout this time is beyond your imagination, so it won't do any good except to put yourself in." ”

"Besides, even if it can be successful." Duan Ming said in a deep voice: "If this matter is really done by the old criminal, you go to take the blame for him, I won't say anything." But if it wasn't done by the old torture, why would you take the blame for that wicked man? ”

"If I lose you, what is the difference between Lao Xing and death?"

The words fell, and Duan Ming left directly.

Walking on the spacious road in the capital, this is worthy of being the most prosperous place in the whole Daqi, and every grass and tree under the feet of the Son of Heaven is very particular.

Since the New Year has just passed, the ground is covered with debris from firecrackers, and it looks like a red carpet that is soft to step on.

The air was filled with the faint smell of gunpowder, and the roads were lined with lanterns of all kinds, making them look bright even during the day.

Pedestrians on the road looked very happy, and children in red jackets were bouncing up and down the street, weaving through the crowd and bursting into laughter.

Duan Ming looked at all this in front of him, although Daqi was not a prosperous era, far less "unparalleled" than the Tang Dynasty in history, but it was also peaceful.

According to Duan Ming's understanding, when the original emperor ascended the throne, the world was in danger, the vassal kings of various places were in turmoil, foreign neighbors were eyeing each other, and internal and external troubles could be described as stormy.

In order to obtain the current peace, I don't know how many people have died in foreign lands and on the battlefield.

Therefore, although Duan Ming had no intention of becoming an official, he was unwilling to bear the life of accompanying the king like a tiger, and he was not willing to delay his research on the immortal runes because of this.

However, Duan Ming didn't want this rare peaceful and prosperous era to be burned down like this.

There are no eggs under the nest, Duan Ming understands this truth better than anyone else.

It is precisely because of this that although Duan Ming came here this time, partly because of his relationship with Xing Qianqiu, but more partly because of himself.

Only when the world is peaceful will he have enough time to study the immortal runes, and he will not have to worry about any changes.

And this time, Qianqiu was framed and imprisoned, don't think about it, the other party must have a plan.

Among them, the most likely is that the Immortal Sect and Dugu Haoyue conspired to seize the power of the Spiegel Division!

Along the way, Duan Ming saw a lot and thought a lot.

Before, whether it was in the prison or in the criminal mansion, Duan Ming swore that he would definitely be able to solve the case and return the sentence to a thousand years of innocence.

But Duan Ming knew best in his heart that these words were not so much to say to others, but to himself.

He must succeed!

Soon, Duan Ming returned to the Jing'an Palace, and as soon as he entered the mansion, he saw Xu Fu, the housekeeper of the Jing'an Palace.

Xu Fu told Duan Ming that King Jing'an had been waiting in the study for a long time to find him.

Duan Ming was very surprised, he didn't understand what King Jing'an was looking for him to do at this time, but he still went.

When he came to the study, King Jing'an was writing, and Duan Ming didn't bother, but watched quietly behind him.

King Jing'an held the pen as if he was holding a sword, and the handwriting was dancing like a dragon and a phoenix, and every ink mark seemed to be deeply engraved into the paper, as if carved into the desk under the paper.

Soon, King Jing'an put away his pen, and there was already an extra word "loyalty" on the white paper like snow outside!

"Mr. Duan, you're here." Putting down the pen, King Jing'an turned his head to look at Duan Ming, and said with a smile: "What do you think of this word?" ”

"The power of the pen is deep and extraordinary." Duan Ming thought for a moment and said.

"Haha, thanks for the compliment." King Jing'an smiled, then walked to the chair on the side and sat down, and then said, "Mr. Duan, please take a seat." ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Duan Ming was not polite, and sat directly on the ground.

"Mr. Duan, what do you mean by that?" King Jing'an was stunned for a moment and said suspiciously.

"The prince asked Duan to sit down, and he didn't say where Duan would sit, so he would sit here." Duan Ming replied with a smile.

"Haha, Mr. Duan is a wonderful person." King Jing'an pointed to the seat next to him: "It's cold on the ground, Mr. Duan, please take a seat." ”

"Okay." Duan Ming slowly stood up, came to King Jing'an's side and sat down.

"Mr. Duan, you are a smart person." As soon as Duan Ming took his seat, King Jing'an asked in a deep voice: "Many people say that this king wants to rebel, what do you think?" ”
