Chapter 019: Successful Retirement
Qingchen and Wan Qianjun made a deal, and the two of them walked out of the stone room together, followed by Wan Qianjun's two subordinates, and a group of four walked towards the outside of the underground palace. It was probably Su Baohua and Wan Qianjun who met routinely every month, so the people who built weapons in the dungeon did not have suspicions, but lowered their heads and continued the work in hand.
Wan Qijun followed Qingchen to the outside of the cave entrance, and found that the guards who were originally guarding the entrance of the cave all fell to the ground, and there was a very thin wound on the neck.
"Someone!" Wan Qijun took on a posture to fight, staring around with burning eyes, in case something changed.
"Your Highness is too worried, these guards are all Su Baohua's people, if we want to succeed, how can these people stay?" Qingchen explained a few words to Wan Jijun, and then spoke loudly outside, "Come out." ”
"My subordinates have seen Childe. As the words fell, he saw Ning Chen and Ye Di appear in front of Qingchen on the left and right, bowing to her, and these guards on the ground were killed by Ning Chen's sword.
"Get up. Qingchen said, turned his head to look at Wan Qijun, and spoke again, "Now Your Highness can rest assured?"
"Your Excellency's martial arts are strong, hidden deeply, and there is even such a group of capable subordinates, which makes this king admire tightly. Wan Qijun said, "But at this moment, this king does not know your name. ”
"In Xia Mu Ye, please remember it well, Mu Ye may be just a little-known nobody, but in the near future, I will let the name Mu Ye resound in the sky over the territory of the four countries. Qingchen turned his head to look at Wan Qijun and spoke, a confident and determined look flashed in his eyes.
Although Qingchen has not returned to her original appearance at this moment, the determination and categorization in her tone make Wan Jijun involuntarily choose to believe it.
"So the king waits for this day. Wan Jijun glanced at Qingchen deeply, and said, "These two people, this king will send you to deal with the aftermath, it's not too early, this king will leave first." ”
"Your Highness, walk slowly. Qingchen nodded slightly, and ordered Ning Chen to tie up Wan Qianjun's two subordinates, and then watched Wan Qianjun leave.
Qingchen looked at Wan Qianjun's back as he left, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Wan Qijun is known as the first warrior in Mobei, with extraordinary skills and infinite strength, which can be seen from the fact that he can smash the tables and stools in the stone room with one punch. It's just that in the stone room at that time, the space was small, and Wan Qijun was huge and couldn't do his kung fu, so she was taken advantage of by her dexterous figure, supplemented by the night rain needle, and she was lucky to win.
But Wan Jijun has a body of martial arts and a simple mind, if he figures this out and makes a move out of the hole, it will be more troublesome to subdue him.
"Childe, what should we do next?" Ning Chen walked to Qingchen's side and asked.
"Calculate the time, Su Baohua's body should be discovered by the people of Yancheng, then they should also find the secret letter that will be placed on Su Baohua's body tomorrow. Qingchen pondered for a moment, and then commanded, "Nightfall, you send these two people to Shi Wuxian and tell him that these two Mobei people are the real murderers of Master Su." ”
"Will Shi Wuxian believe it?" asked Nightfall.
"There is the power of heaven, he will believe it. Qingchen smiled and said, "Ning Chen, this place is handed over to you to deal with, remember, this place is very important to me, and the manufacturing of weapons inside will continue, but you can't let anyone know." ”
"Yes, the subordinates will arrange it. Ning Chen nodded, indicating that he understood.
Seeing that both of them understood, Qingchen nodded slightly, and said a few more words to the two, and then saw that tomorrow would come over, and said to Qingchen:
"Childe, my subordinates have been patrolling around and have found another passage that can be exited, which is wider than the secret passage in Jiang Yanshan. ”
"Very good, you stay here to help Ning Chen deal with the aftermath, after the matter is done, come to the inn and make peace with me." Qingchen nodded, and was very relieved to hand over the matter to Ming Ri and Ning Chen, and he turned around and left.
Su Baohua has been in Yancheng for so many years and has done so many things, and the secret passage and this underground weapons factory have not been discovered, which shows that they are very hidden. Now, Mu Qingjue and Tianquan don't know about the existence of this secret, so why should she tell the matter herself? Perhaps, this place will become her last hole card.
Thinking like this, Qingchen returned from the original way, walked back to Jiang Yanshan's secret passage, changed back into his clothes, put on a silver mask, and walked out of the secret passage.
When Qingchen returned to the inn, it was noon. Walking into the lobby of the inn, I saw the shopkeeper greet him and said:
"Guest officer, you're back, the little one is about to go up and call you, and the meals are ready for you. ”
Hearing this, Qingchen nodded slightly, and let Xiao Er lead him, sit at the table, and eat the meal very calmly, while waiting for Tianquan and them to come back.
But at this moment, two people came in from outside the door of the inn, talking as they walked, Qingchen didn't notice them, but the content of the conversation between the two attracted Qingchen's attention.
"Brother Liu, haven't you seen the tragic situation when Lord Su's body was found this morning......
"Alas, Brother Li, tell me, this is so good, how could Master Su be killed?" the man surnamed Liu sighed when he heard this.
"You don't know this, do you? When Lord Su's body was discovered, the younger brother was at the scene, and General Shi sent someone to transport Lord Su back to Taishou Mansion and asked for an autopsy to prove that Master Su was killed by a martial arts master. The man surnamed Li spoke.
"Master Su is highly respected and has won the hearts of the people in Yancheng, I don't know who would do such a poisonous thing?" asked the man surnamed Liu again.
"Naturally, the people of Yancheng will not do such a thing, I heard my brother-in-law who was on an errand in Taishou Mansion say that this thing was done by the Mobei people. Before I came to see you, I happened to pass by the gate of the guard's mansion and saw General Shi's men escorting two Mobei people in......"
......
Qingchen's movements gradually slowed down and became softer, and she looked up at the two men sitting at the table near her without a trace, and a vague smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
It seems that the efficiency of Ye Di and Tianquan is not bad, she has only come back not long ago, and someone in Yancheng already knows about it, and what this man surnamed Li knows is exactly what she wants the people of Yancheng to know.
She asked her to abandon Su Baohua's body tomorrow in a place with many people near Jiang Yanshan, which would be easy to be discovered, and by the way, she put a secret letter on Su Baohua's body to communicate with Wan Qiyun, the king of Mobei Khan, so that this letter could be found together with Su Baohua's body. It doesn't matter who found Su Baohua's body, the important thing is that the people of Yancheng will see this secret letter and believe that Su Baohua's death is related to Mobei.
Yancheng Taishou was killed, and the dragons of Yancheng had no leader, so the only one who could call the shots was the Yancheng guard Shi Wuxi. And before Shi Wuxian saw Su Baohua's body and even knew about his death, Tianquan had already gone to the Shoujiang's Mansion and explained everything to Shi Wujian.
Shi Wuxian is Mu Qingjue's person, and he will naturally cooperate with all of Tianquan's actions, so when he sees Su Baohua's body, according to Tianquan's explanation, he will order a thorough investigation of Su Baohua's murderer and give an explanation to the people of Yancheng. And at this time, Ye Di appeared with two Mobei people, deliberately letting Shi Wuji's subordinates find out the clues, and letting the people of Yancheng confirm their guesses, believing that Su Baohua's death was indeed related to Mobei.
In this way, Su Baohua's reputation in Yancheng for nine years was destroyed after his death because of a secret letter with Mobei, and the people of Yancheng will not suspect Mu Qingjue's head, and will not hold a grudge against the court, but will remember that it was the Mobei people who killed their Taishou.
The two men didn't say anything more about it, but changed the topic, and Qingchen didn't listen to it anymore, and quickly ate his meal, then turned around and went upstairs and returned to his room.
Qingchen lay on the bed, closed his eyes, recalled everything when he came to Yancheng, calculated the time, the two months agreed with Mu Qingjue were almost up, and he would leave Yancheng tomorrow and return to the capital of Tianxing Country as soon as possible, it should be too late.
As for the matter of Yancheng, what grievances does Su Baohua have with the Mobei people, why Su Baohua was killed, everything will become an eternal mystery with Su Baohua's death, and no one will know in the hearts of the people of Yancheng, this is just a trick for her to set up a blame.
I believe that soon, Shi Wuxian will write to the imperial court, Mu Qingjue will also send a new Taishou to Yancheng, even if Su Baohua wins the hearts of the people, it will become a scenery in everyone's memory, and after all, it will not be mentioned in exchange for a word.
I don't know how long it took, Qingchen heard a knock on the door outside, slowly opened his eyes, sat up from the bed, and then said lightly: "Come in." ”
"Childe, my subordinate is back. Tianquan walked in from outside, closed the door with his backhand, walked in front of Qingchen, and spoke.
"Everything is done?" Qingchen looked at Tianquan, smiled, and asked.
"Yes, General Shi has already written a recital, eight hundred miles to hurry up and whip up the emperor, and push everything that happened in Yancheng onto the Mobei people, and those two Mobei people will be sent to the capital in the near future, waiting for the emperor's fate. Tianquan nodded, said so, and spoke again, "It's just that there is something unknown to the subordinates, why is the son ......?"
"I know what you're trying to ask, but I'm not going to tell you. Qingchen interrupted Tianquan's words, and then said, "You know that I have my own way to find out everything, so it's not strange to know where Su Baohua is and how to solve this matter, now that the matter has ended successfully, you can give an account to the imperial brother, and you don't need to know the rest, don't you?"
"That's what Childe said. Hearing this, Tianquan was stunned for a moment, bowed his head and said.
After all, the task given to him by Mu Qingjue, in addition to protecting Qingchen, was only to report Qingchen's every move to Mu Qingjue, and did not say that Mu Qingchen had to explain everything to him, and he couldn't find out the bottom of Mu Qingchen, because he was incompetent, and Mu Qingchen couldn't be blamed for concealing it.
"Is that all right? So...... Pack up our things, and as soon as the imperial brother's decree arrives, we will set off for the capital. Qingchen glanced at Tianquan coldly and commanded.
