Chapter 256: Who Is That Man?

Zhang Xiang left in a hurry to tell the newly discovered clues to Master Ku.

Master Huaisu suspended the trial for the same reason.

The matter involves Daomen and the three princes, so how to judge next is no longer a matter that these people in the field can decide.

The officials of the Demon Suppression Division and the Criminal Department, as well as representatives of various sects, left the Demon Suppression Division one after another.

The Blood Moon Sect and other sects were a little gloating, the Wuhui Valley and other sects were a little worried, and the more small sects were wishing that they hadn't appeared today.

Zhang Sangongzi naturally couldn't leave, and was taken into a room of the Demon Suppression Division.

Master Huaisu sat on the futon outside the door, which was what it meant to be personally guarded.

Looking at the skylight outside the window, Zhang Sangongzi remembered a lot of things.

He has been away from Sunset Mountain for many years, and the scenery and characters in the mountain have become a little unfamiliar, in comparison, he is more familiar with the people and things in Chang'an City, and he is more familiar with his identity as the commander of the Criminal Department, and nothing else.

He was also familiar with the smell of paulownia lacquer that had not yet dried on the windows of the wings.

All the buildings of the Demon Suppression Division were rebuilt on top of the ruins, and he personally supervised the work, which was completed in only seven days.

The door of the wing room was pushed open, and Li Yuan walked in.

Zhang Sangongzi was a little surprised, it was naturally reasonable for the other party to come to see him, but why didn't Master Huaisu stop him?

"The master is willing to give face to the Daomen, and agrees with me to persuade you to tell the truth of the matter."

Li Yuan looked at him and said, his eyes were extremely cold.

Naturally, what he wanted to convey was completely different from what he said.

Zhang Sangongzi said expressionlessly: "What does Senior Brother want to say?" ”

Liyuan's eyes were even colder, and he said silently: "Are you crazy?" How can the Prince's Mansion be implicated? ”

"I am doing my own official in Chang'an City, but you let me keep doing things for you......"

Zhang Sangongzi stared at his eyes and said, "Later, you want me to help you send people to the demon prison, have you considered my situation?" ”

As soon as he spoke, Li Yuan's face became extremely ugly, his eyes were slightly cold, and he motioned for him to shut up quickly.

Zhang Sangongzi didn't mean to stop, and said: "The person you sent to the demon prison caused such a big incident, do you still expect me to carry it alone?" ”

Li Yuan couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted slightly angrily: "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Zhang Sangongzi looked into his eyes and said calmly: "If the death of the Xuan Turtle is related to that person, do you know what it means?" ”

Li Yuan pushed the door out, glanced at Master Huaisu on the futon, and knew that the other party had heard everything, so he left angrily.

Master Huaisu slowly opened his eyes and said, "I'll write them all down." ”

Zhang Sangongzi walked to the door, lifted his placket and sat on the threshold, and said, "Master of hard work." ”

……

……

That night, Chang'an City, which had just calmed down, ushered in a turmoil again.

The sound of the hooves of the Yulin Wei Iron Rider echoed through the city like thunder, and the streets shook uneasily, as if something had happened to the Demon Suppressor again.

The Criminal Department was brightly lit, and the officials stayed up all night, sorting out the files and starting to examine themselves.

All the clues found by the officials pointed to a certain place, so hundreds of Lin Wei Iron Cavalry directly surrounded that place.

The Three Princes' Mansion.

……

……

The Demon Suppression Division was quiet as usual last night, ushering in a seemingly ordinary day in the morning light.

After washing, Zhang Sangongzi had breakfast with Master Huaisu, two bowls of millet porridge and three thin vegetarian cakes, the only difference was that he ate half a more salted duck egg.

Except for the two of them, the first person to come to the Demon Suppression Division was not Zhang Xiang or a representative of any sect, but Liyuan.

The Three Princes' Mansion was surrounded by Yu Linwei, but no one dared to stop him from leaving.

Liyuan is a guest of the Prince's Mansion, and of course he knows that the Dark Building threatened the Prince's Mansion with the assassination of Su Qingming back then and sent a letter to the Demon Division.

To be more precise, this could only have been done with his consent.

The Demon Suppression Division is the true body of the Xuan Turtle, not to mention the withered dark building, even if a more powerful force wants to do something inside, it is impossible.

And he really wanted to know the content of the letter sent by the dark building to the Demon Suppression Division, so after receiving the letter from the real person, he agreed to Dugu Taifu's actions.

He didn't take it seriously, but who would have thought...... The turtle is actually dead!

And there were people in the imperial court and the monastic circles who obviously wanted to link the death of the turtle to the letter.

No! They had already linked the death of the Xuan Turtle to that letter, as evidenced by Yu Linwei's siege of the Prince's Mansion overnight!

He came to the Demon Suppression Division before everyone else, just to say something to Master Huaisu in advance and save some of the situation.

The morning light was faint, the morning bird had not risen, and the eaves of the Demon Suppression Division printed a somewhat strange shadow in the back garden.

Master Huaisu and Liyuan stood in the shadows and whispered.

"That's the truth of the matter, that person is indeed a person from the Dark Building, we want to investigate some things but can't find out, and in the end we have to send them to the Demon Suppression Division."

Hearing this, Master Huaisu was silent for a long time.

Liyuan's meaning was very clear, and the Daomen couldn't find out, so he had to send it to the Demon Suppression Division to let the Xuan Turtle eat it, so that he could get some information more or less.

This kind of behavior is very contrary to the righteous path, and it will be very harmful to the reputation of the Daomen after it spreads, but he frankly admits that it should be the truth in anyone's mind.

Master Huaisu didn't think so, looked at him and said calmly: "The monks don't talk nonsense, but it doesn't mean that they are easy to deceive. ”

Li Yuan's face was a little ugly, and he said, "It's true." ”

Master Huaisu quietly looked at Liyuan and said, "You said that the person is dead, not the one who escaped from the Demon Suppression Division, is there any evidence?" ”

Li Yuan's face was a little ugly, the prisoners of the Demon Suppression Division suffered heavy casualties, and many prisoners couldn't even leave their bodies, where could they find evidence?

He said with a slightly cold expression: "Could it be that the master is really ready to dig into the end?" ”

The Hanging Temple has a long history and a very deep heritage, but the status of the Daomen in the cultivation world and the Chaotian Continent is higher, and the relationship between the two sides has always been good.

Now Daomen does not hesitate to expose his own ugliness and gives a perfect answer, but Master Huaisu refuses to accept it, what is going on?

Master Huaisu said calmly: "The matter has not been clarified, so naturally we must continue to investigate." ”

Li Yuan said angrily: "The Xuan Turtle is dead, and we don't want to investigate it ourselves, why do we still need to investigate?" ”

"Yesterday, I told Commander Zhang that the Xuan Turtle incarnated as the Demon Suppression Division, and his body moved to death, this is not a matter of the Daomen faction, you don't want to pursue it, it doesn't mean that this matter is over. It should not be forgotten from the offering that Master Ku had promised the Demon Lord that he would definitely find out about this matter. ”

Master Huaisu looked at him quietly and said, "Monk...... Don't slosh. ”

Li Yuan looked at him deeply, didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.

……

As the morning light grew, the forest fog gradually dispersed, and the representatives and officials of the various sects came to the Demon Suppression Division again.

There was no cold noise, Zhang Xiang directly said the news that everyone wanted to know the most.

"Your Majesty is furious and demands that the truth of this case must be investigated."

Zhang Xiang looked at Liyuan with an expressionless face and said, "Your Majesty still wants me to ask Liyuan a word on my behalf, what does Daomen want to do?" ”

Everyone understood where His Majesty's anger was coming from.

If the Xuangui accident is really related to the person who Dugu Taifu sent to the Demon Suppression Division, then is this an incident caused by the remnants of the dark building, or what does the prince's mansion want to do?

The hand of the Prince's Mansion actually reached into the Demon Suppression Division, how could Your Majesty not be angry?

There is also a conjecture that looks the most real, the most terrifying, and the most furious to Master Ku now.

This is a conspiracy of the Daomen!

- They sent a key person to the Demon Suppression Division, wanting to give the Demon Lord to the turtle to eat, so as to help the turtle soar!

Feeling the dozens of lines of sight that fell on him, Li Yuan's face became even more gloomy.

If he could, he would have wanted to kill everyone present directly, and he didn't want to bear such a gaze.

The messenger of the dark building who was sent to the Demon Suppression Division by the Prince's Mansion is dead, and he is definitely not the one who escaped from the Demon Suppression Division, he firmly believes but can't explain it.

The most important thing is, why did Daomen send a person from the dark building to the Demon Suppression Division?

Liyuan once gave Master Huaisu an answer, but the other party refused to accept it.

Daomen can't tell the truth of the matter - the three princes bought the assassins of the dark building to assassinate Zhao Layue, and was later threatened by the other party - if this answer is made public, the three princes will be completely abolished, even if Daomen does his best to save his life, how can he become the next generation of bitter masters?

……

……

Because of the silence and non-cooperation of the Daomen, the investigation of the change in the Demon Suppression Division naturally could not be deepened.

In order to avoid the situation becoming more complicated, it didn't take many days for the results of the matter to be dealt with in the Demon Suppression Division.

The three princes were not allowed to leave the prince's mansion for three years.

The remains of the turtle were left in the basement of the Demon Suppressor.

It may be for the sake of the tragic death of the Xuan Turtle and the initiative of the Daomen to propose this proposal, the matter of them sending people into the Demon Suppression Division, Master Ku did not delve into it.

What is somewhat surprising is that Zhang Sangongzi did not receive any punishment, not even a word of reprimand, and still continued to be the commander of the criminal department.

Compared to the anger that Master Ku once showed, these punishments were nothing to mention, and they were completely thunderous and rainy.

The Dao Gate seems to have no loss, but those who have a heart naturally understand that this is not the case.

The Daomen Ancestor died tragically but couldn't do anything, and he had to leave the remains of the Xuan Turtle in Chang'an City, which was already extremely embarrassing.

It has become impossible to track down the real murderer, or to go crazy by tracking down the real murderer - the turtle died at the hands of the Demon Lord, and who released the Demon Lord?

Zhang Sangongzi did not receive any punishment, and the reason was clearer, it was because of the attitude shown in this matter that Master Ku liked him.

Li Yuan even wondered if he deliberately said the name of Dugu Taifu that day and splashed this basin of dirty water on Daomen's body.

Looking at Zhang Sangongzi not far away, Li Yuan's expression was slightly cold, thinking that even if you become the dog of the bitter master in Chang'an City in the future, will Daoyan Zhenren let you go?

"This is the end of this matter, and no one should mention it again." Master Huaisu looked at the representatives and officials of the various sects and said.

Many sect representatives didn't know until this time that the Demon Lord was actually imprisoned in the Demon Suppression Division, and the Demon Suppression Division was the Xuan Turtle. If the world knows these secrets and knows that the turtle actually eats people, then it will be worth it?

The cultivation world is the best at covering up these things, until a long time ago, no one remembers them, just like the major events of the Sword Sect back then. Li Yuan thought about those past events and looked at Chi Yan in the corner, this Sword Sect Cloud Sword Peak Elder had never said a word in the meeting, which made him feel a little strange, and his vigilance gradually grew.

"The person who escaped from the Demon Suppression Division must be found." He retracted his gaze and said to Master Huaisu and Zhang Xiang.

The matter is not allowed to be mentioned again, it does not mean that it is over, and if Daomen wants to save his reputation and regain the initiative, he must investigate this matter clearly.

Zhang Xiang said: "When that person escaped from the Demon Suppression Division that day, he was closest to him, what did he think?" ”

"As I said, that person is at least a Divine Journey Realm cultivator."

Li Yuan thought about the unimaginable speed and body of the black shadow, and frowned slightly.

An elder of the Qingcheng Sect said in a deep voice: "There are not many masters of this level in each sect, and it is not difficult to investigate them one by one. ”

"It's been checked."

Wu Hou walked in from outside.

Master Huaisu glanced at him.

Wu Hou shook his head.

Seeing this scene, Li Yuan was uneasy again.

"The elders of the various factions above the Divine Journey Realm have ample alibi evidence when they are either meditating in their respective caves or doing other things."

Wuhou handed over a piece of jade pendant in his hand to Master Huaisu, looked at Liyuan and said, "It's not the imperial court that investigated, this is the conclusion of the military department." ”

Obviously, he knew that the Daomen would not trust the results of the self-examination of the imperial court and the various sects.

To be able to find out the location and movements of so many masters at that time in such a short period of time, only the military department of Chaotian Continent can do it.

But in order to do this, the military department should have paid a lot of price.

Since the person who escaped from the Demon Suppression Division was not an elder of the Righteous Dao Sect, he could only be a master of loose cultivation and evil paths, how should this be investigated?

Li Yuan's face was ugly, but he didn't say anything more.

……

……

The representatives of the various sects left Chang'an City, and the Demon Suppression Division regained its quietness.

Zhang Xiang held the tea bowl, looked at the amber tea soup in the bowl, and was silent thinking about things.

It went so well.

The degree of smoothness even made him feel a little weird.

The first thing that made him feel that something was wrong was Master Huaisu.

This great master of the Hanging Temple deliberately or unintentionally led to the inside of the Demon Suppression Division in the early investigation, and finally let the Daomen find out about himself.

Then there was the investigation of the Ministry of War.

If it is said that Master Ku wants to take the opportunity to attack the Daomen and abolish the three princes, Zhang Sangongzi's backlash is very understandable, but why did the military department and the Hanging Temple cooperate?

The Hanging Temple is indeed close to the royal family, but it will definitely not do such a thing.

What's more, all of these investigations ended up perfectly concealing the real figure.

Of course, Zhang Xiang knew that the person who escaped from the Demon Suppression Division was not the remnant of the Dark Building, but Su Qingming.

After this investigation, no one could have imagined such a possibility.

What is the content of the letter that Dark Building sent to the Demon Suppression Division, and will it be related to Su Qingming?

Zhang Xiang thought about these things and forgot to drink tea at all.

The sky is slightly dark, and the color of the tea soup is darker, like sour red branch wood.

Zhang Xiang raised his head and saw the figure that walked into the Demon Suppression Division, and his face changed suddenly.

After disappearing from the world for three years, after such a major event, it appeared so brightly?

The masters of the various sects have just left Chang'an City, and I don't know how many eyes are still staring here, aren't you afraid of accidents?

He wanted to get up and go to greet him, but where did he dare to move, he could only watch like this...... Su Qingming walked into the Demon Suppression Division like shopping.
