61. Tasks
The news of Shen Du's promotion to the golden coat and the capture of fast soon spread throughout Qingzhou.
As soon as the news of this incident came out, it immediately caused an uproar.
The golden clothes are fast, which can be called pivotal among the six doors.
The key is that Shen Du is young, and he has already occupied such a high position, if there is no accident halfway, maybe he is expected to go to the capital in the future.
As we all know, the six gates are under the jurisdiction of the state helmsman, and only the gold-clothed level is qualified to go to the capital, but it is only qualified.
After this incident, Shen Du really entered the eyes of the major forces in Qingzhou.
……
South Courtyard,
Liang Ying walked in quickly and said respectfully: "My lord, someone just sent someone to invite you to the banquet. ”
Today's Liang Ying, dressed in black, has long been changed to red, and he has been promoted to red.
He was transferred from Xiaxian County, where he worked hard for three years, and now he finally got his wish.
Since the fall of the Five Tigers Hall and the union of the gangs, the six doors of the present can be said to have greatly increased their prestige in the South Twelve Fang.
The remaining gangs will either join them or be expelled from them.
In the entire South Twelve Squares, only the Chen family is now left.
Shen Du put down the teacup and said lightly: "Push it." ”
"Let's just say that the official has to go out on a mission and can't go to the banquet."
During this time, he has received many similar invitations.
At this moment, a figure outside the courtyard burst in angrily and let out an angry shout.
"Shen Du!!"
Ji Yuntao's face was ugly, and he said coldly: "Did you kill Xiao Qian?" ”
Shen Duyan narrowed slightly, looked up at Ji Yuntao, and said with a surprised expression: "What, he died?" ”
"Humph!" Ji Yuntao snorted coldly, staring at Shen Du with his eyes, as if he wanted to see him through, and said coldly: "That's right, he's dead." ”
"There are no dead bodies!"
Shen Du smiled and said, "So Lord Ji is here to ask about the sin today?" ”
"The human official was handed over to you intact."
"Now that people are dead, but they come to me, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?"
"As a Japanese official, he has never left the helm, if Lord Ji doesn't believe it, he can ask the catcher on duty that day to ask."
Ji Yuntao's face was gloomy.
Naturally, he had already inquired about it, and Shen Du had indeed not left that day.
But he vaguely felt that this matter was absolutely inseparable from Shen Du.
Shen Du smiled softly, the smile on his face gradually faded, and said calmly: "Lord Ji, you are anxious for a while, the official can understand it, and the official can treat today's events as if he doesn't know." ”
"Framing colleagues, if it really makes trouble to Lord Zong, I'm afraid it won't end well, right?"
Ji Yuntao glanced at Shen Du deeply, sneered, and arched his hand: "Then thank Lord Shen for raising your noble hand!" ”
With that, he threw up his sleeves and strode away.
Shen Du slowly retracted his gaze and ordered, "Send someone to keep an eye on him." ”
"Yes!" Liang Ying should give up.
At this time, a black-clothed catcher came quickly and said respectfully: "Lord Shen, Lord Shen, Lord Hunt is invited." ”
"Got it."
Shen Du nodded, pulled off his cloak and put it on, and walked to the inner hall of the chief catcher.
……
Inner hall,
Feng Jinyuan was looking over the case to read the official documents, and when he heard the sound of footsteps, he didn't raise his head and said, "Sit down!" ”
Hearing this, Shen Du walked to the side and sat down on a chair.
After reading the official document in his hand, Feng Jinyuan raised his head and smiled: "Young age, but ambition is not small. ”
Shen Du's face was indifferent, waiting for his next step.
Feng Jinyuan poured a cup of tea, blew the tea foam gently, tasted it lightly, and said slowly: "But your qualifications are still shallow, if you want to go further, you still need enough merit." ”
Shen Du's eyes flickered, he got up and arched his hand: "Please show me!" ”
Feng Jinyuan smiled.
He likes smart people.
Feng Jinyuan said lightly: "There are some things I think you know well, you have no background, let alone connections, and in this officialdom, you are destined to be more difficult than others." ”
"But this official has a task here, it depends on whether you dare to go."
A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Du's eyes, and he arched his hand and said, "I don't know what the task is?" ”
Feng Jinyuan said calmly: "I heard that the second prince of the Wei Mansion once invited you?" ”
Shen Du's heart sank.
"Yes!"
Feng Jinyuan nodded with a smile, and said in a deep voice: "This official has found out that Sima Qingzhou has fornicated with foreign enemies and is suspected of plotting rebellion, but there has been a lack of evidence, and it is difficult for the Nighthawk secret agents in my six doors to find out the substantive news. ”
"This official wants you to befriend the second son of Wei, and then use his identity to collect relevant evidence."
"If you can do this, this official will protect your future!"
Shen Du's expression froze, and he lowered his head, hiding the strangeness on his face.
He knew it in his heart.
Since Feng Jinyuan said this, if he didn't agree, the result would be unpredictable.
Shen Du arched his hand and said: "The lower official receives the order!" ”
Feng Jinyuan smiled and waved his hand, and said with a look of appreciation: "This official really didn't misunderstand you. ”
"Let's go down."
……
Cangshan,
This place is where the Diancangpai Mountain Gate is located, and it is not too far from Qingzhou City, only more than 50 miles away.
What happened in Qingzhou City has now been reported back to the Diancang faction.
For the Diancang faction, this is undoubtedly a shame.
As a famous and decent family on the rivers and lakes, he attaches the most importance to reputation, which seems to be just a trivial matter, but what has affected it is the reputation of the Diancang faction for hundreds of years.
In the whole matter, the most angry was the seven elders of the Diancang Sect, Xiao Shishan.
Regarding the reason for this matter, he has also learned from Ji Yuntao.
But the matter has come to this point, and the evidence is conclusive, and the Diancang faction has to suffer this dumb loss.
But what really made him angry was Xiao Gan's death!
Died on the way back to the mountain!
The disciples sent to answer only found some broken clothes, and as for the corpses, they had already been eaten by wild wolves.
Xiao Shishan is nearly sixty years old, has many white whiskers on his chin, and his face is much older.
When he was young, he was injured in fighting with others, which caused his foundation to be damaged, and later he was in a hurry to make a breakthrough, and his meridians were greatly damaged, so at the same age, he looked extremely old.
Xiao Shishan put down the teacup, looked at his eldest disciple on the side, and asked, "Has the cemetery for Qian'er's corpse been chosen?" ”
Sun Qinghai arched his hand and said, "It has been properly settled." ”
"Bang!" Xiao Shishan angrily threw the teacup on the ground and said angrily: "This evil obstacle! ”
"I told him a long time ago that he would stay at the mountain gate, but he didn't listen and had to go down the mountain."
Xiao Shishan scolded and scolded, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
In an instant, the temperature in the room seemed to plummet, and the cold was terrible.
Sun Qinghai on the side trembled inexplicably, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
He knew that although the master said that he didn't care, he couldn't let go of it in his heart.
For a long time, the master has attached great importance to Xiao Qian, otherwise he would not have been indulgent all the time.
Xiao Shishan took a deep breath and said coldly, "How is the investigation going?" ”
Sun Qinghai shook his head and hesitated: "There is no result yet, Senior Brother Xiao's body is incomplete, so it is difficult to judge the cause of death." ”
Xiao Shishan looked out the window with deep eyes and muttered, "You said that if there was no such thing, wouldn't Qian'er have died?" ”
Sun Qinghai's face changed slightly.
Xiao Shishan waved his hand, and said, "Go down." ”
"Yes!"
When he walked out of the inner hall, Sun Qinghai realized that his back was already soaked.
But soon a sneer appeared on his face.
Xiao Qian is dead, and this old thing can only support him with all his strength in the future.
No matter who killed Xiao Qian, he had to thank him.
