The other party's strong hand made the black-robed spy aware of the difference in strength between the two sides, he was a senior intelligence officer, and he would not lose his mind because of the crisis.

On the contrary, years of training have made him more and more level-headed in times of crisis.

"Lord Xu, you don't need to be like this, you have to investigate the case of the bloody massacre of three thousand miles, and you are afraid of offending His Royal Highness King Huai, these humble duties are understood. But I advise you not to be impulsive, there are a few things you need to figure out.

"First, the princess was not kidnapped by the barbarians, and this matter cannot be hidden, hehe, I can't tell you the reason. But you believe me, if the princess falls into the hands of the barbarians, His Royal Highness King Huai will know in the end.

"But the result is that the princess was rescued by you, as long as you investigate afterwards, the point when you leave the mission coincides with the time when the princess was robbed, this is enough. Who His Royal Highness King Huai wants to deal with, he doesn't need evidence, as long as he feels that you are an enemy. ”

King Zhenbei is even more domineering than I thought......... Xu Qi'an was expressionless and continued to listen.

"Second, you saved the princess, it is a great achievement, His Royal Highness King Huai has been in charge of the army for many years, and he attaches the most importance to the words "clear rewards and punishments". If you can catch the line of King Huai, Xu Yinluo, you will have a bright future. Wei Yuan can only promote your official position, but King Huai is a prince, he can promote your title. ”

"Third, the case is just a case, and if you do a bad job, it will not affect your prestige for solving strange cases. The future is all that matters, isn't it? Why bother to solve a case that has nothing to do with you, and affect yourself. ”

The princess took a step back silently, she didn't look at the black-robed spies, her attention was all on Xu Qi'an.

Although he is a womanizer, his style is quite decent, and he is definitely not the kind of scum who sells others for the sake of his future......... The princess has some confidence in this, but she is still a little nervous and nervous.

After all, Xu Qi'an is now facing the pressure of offending the prince and the future of becoming an official.

Bureaucracy exists in every world.......... Xu Qi'an nodded slowly:

"It makes sense, I'm almost convinced. You're right, the princess is the wife of the king of Zhenbei, and I don't need to offend a prince because of this. ”

The black-robed spy's masked face showed a smile, he was gambling, gambling that Xu Qi'an would not dare to offend King Huai, and gambling that Xu Qi'an cared more about the future.

On one side is purgatory, on the other side is fairyland, and fools know how to choose.

Of course, who cares if these words can be fulfilled or not, and whether King Huai is willing to give the surname Xu a bright future.

As long as he survives this catastrophe and returns to the barracks, Xu Qi'an will be a chopping block. As for the Qi Hope Technique, the black-robed spy was not worried, what he just said was all sincere.

King Huai does have clear rewards and punishments.

Looking at the black-robed spy who was obviously relieved, Xu Qi'an said in a heavy tone: "Answer me a question, and I'll let you go." Bloody slaughter of 3,000 miles, what the hell is going on?"

The black-robed spy's heart sank, and he said sharply: "Xu Qi'an, if you have to investigate, then the only thing waiting for you is destruction." King Huai pinched you to death, just like pinching an ant to death.

"Not only you, but your family, your relatives and friends, all have to sit together. If you don't want them to bury you, you'd better let me go. ”

Seeing that Xu Qi'an was silent, the black-robed spy sneered: "If you kill me, at most you will kill people and kill your mouth, what's the point?

"Let's be funny, think about it, what I just said is still valid. ”

As an intelligence officer, he understands people's hearts and understands words. Coercion and inducement are combined, using the past as bait and relatives and friends as blackmail.

"You're right. Xu Qi'an grinned.

The black-robed spy was stunned, and a sense of foreboding surged up, and he said tentatively: "What, what?"

Xu Qi'an stared into his eyes and repeated, "You're right, I'm really good at summoning spirits." ”

After speaking, he saw the black-robed spy's pupils shrink sharply, and then struggled hard, threatening with a fierce heart: "Xu Qi'an, I am a secret agent of His Royal Highness King Huai, if you dare to kill me, you will be an enemy of King Huai, and you will not end well."

"Are you a fool, no, fools are smarter than you, you don't go to Sunshine Avenue, you have to ......."

There was a click, and the angry shouting stopped.

"It's noisy. ”

Xu Qi'an casually threw the corpse on the ground, and the spy opened his eyes wide, looking at the sky in silence, as if he was dead.

The princess secretly applauded in her heart.

Her heart slowly stabilized, and she exhaled a sigh of relief, and when she looked at Xu Qi'an again, the appreciation in her eyes was undisguised.

Unconsciously, Xu Qi'an's image here is becoming more and more vivid and three-dimensional, and her trust in Xu Qi'an is also growing.

The princess just wanted to say: Let's slip away!

I saw Xu Qi'an take out a book, tear off a page of paper, and ignite it with a gas machine, and in an instant, a yin wind blew out of thin air, and there seemed to be a terrible cry in his ears, and the warm sun in the sky lost its temperature.

Then, the princess saw a series of unreal figures, turned into green smoke, and suspended in the air one zhang away in front of Xu Qi'an.

Ghost Ghost ........ The princess's eyes widened a little bit, and her small mouth opened a little bit, frightened and stupid.

She has never seen a ghost in her life, she usually makes up for it by herself, scares herself, and now when she sees a real ghost, her brain is a little confused, she has no thoughts, and she even forgets to escape.

Xu Qi'an didn't notice that the princess was in a state of fear, and even if she did, she didn't have time to comfort this No. 1 beauty in Dafeng now.

There was something more important waiting for him to do.

In addition to the three barbarians who died at the hands of Xu Qi'an, as well as the black-robed spies, he also summoned the souls of the dead soldiers.

The new souls are stupid and dumbfounded, and their eyes are glazed.

Xu Qi'an looked at the black-robed man, was silent for a few seconds, and said slowly: "What's going on with the bloody slaughter of three thousand miles." ”

The secret agent's expression was stiff, and he replied in a hollow voice: "His Royal Highness King Huai's impact on the Second Rank Great Perfection requires a large amount of life essence to increase the martial artist's qi and blood. ”

This sentence was like a thunderbolt in the ears of Xu Qi'an and the princess.

The bloody slaughter of 3,000 miles was done by the king of Zhenbei........ At this moment, Xu Qi'an's brain was buzzing, as if someone had knocked him on the head.

In fact, I had already expected that if the bloody slaughter of 3,000 li was committed by the barbarians, how could Tang Shanjun and the others, who were the leaders of the tribe, not know? How could they not participate?

It's just that Chu Xianglong's ignorance made me ignore this detail and think that there is still an inside story in this case........ No, the real reason is that I don't want to believe it.

I don't want to believe that a prince who has guarded the border for more than ten years, the royal family of Dafeng, will slaughter the people who admire him and love him for their own selfish desires.

Xu Qi'an's mouth trembled, and he muttered, "Unforgivable........"

He would rather all this be done by the barbarians, everyone is in different camps, meeting is life and death, today you slaughter the people of Dafeng, and in the coming day I will lead the army to level the barbarian tribes.

Since they are mortal enemies, there is nothing to say.

But he couldn't accept that it was the king of Zhenbei who caused this tragedy, the prince of Daebong. He waved the butcher's knife at his own people, just to promote the second rank.

Brute!

Yes, it was made by King Huai........ The princess covered her lips and tears welled up in her eyes.

After a long time, Xu Qi'an heard his hoarse voice and asked, "Where is the place of the massacre?"

The black-robed man replied with a stunned expression, "I don't know." ”

I don't know....... This answer was beyond Xu Qi'an's expectations, shouldn't it be Xikou County?

In addition, even being a confidant of the King of Zhenbei didn't know about it, which was very unscientific.

"Who knows?" Xu Qi'an asked the doubts in his heart.

"Chuzhou is the commander of the capital to make Que Yongxiu and the secret agent of the word "Tian" know. The soul of the black-robed man said.

All command room Que Yongxiu?

Xu Qi'an pondered for a moment and recalled this person's information: Que Yongxiu, the commander of Chuzhou, and the protector of the country.

Hereditary titles.

The first protector was the king of Pinghai that year, that is, the sworn brother of the later Emperor Wuzong.

Emperor Wuzong was the prince who joined forces with Buddhism to kill the first generation of supervisors and usurped the throne in the name of the Qing monarch.

The vein of the protector is a rare evergreen tree among the old nobles, and there are many marriages with the royal family, and he has married two princesses and four county lords in the family history.

Que Yongxiu has the blood of the royal family.

"Que Yongxiu and the king of Zhenbei colluded to create a tragedy of 3,000 miles of bloody slaughter....... Collect evidence and report them, I don't believe that Emperor Yuan Jing can still shield the two of them, even if he wants to protect them, Duke Wei will not agree, and the princes of the court will not agree........"

The princes in the court, the civil and military officials in the capital, the good and the bad, and the dim and shrewd, are a force that even the emperor cannot contend with.

Such a shocking tragedy, as long as it is set out, the hundred officials in the capital will not be able to sit idly by.

Xu Qi'an resisted the urge to return to the capital with his soul, because this was not enough, the soul of a secret agent alone was not enough to bring down the king of Zhenbei and the prince of the protector.

He turned to look at the three barbarians and asked, "What is the reason why you intercepted and killed the secret agent of the Zhenbei King?"

The barbarian of the Qingyan tribe on the left replied: "Find the place where the king of Zhenbei slaughtered the living beings and report it to the chief." ”

The barbarian of the Qingyan Department in the middle then replied: "The leader also wants to be promoted to the second rank. ”

The barbarian of the Qingyan tribe on the right finally replied: "During this time, we have hunted each other with the secret agents of the king of Zhenbei, and many clansmen have been damaged. ”

"Why do you want to find the place where the King of Zhenbei slaughtered the living beings. Xu Qi'an glanced at the remnant soul of the black-robed man who was standing still.

He immediately got to the point, thinking there was something big wrong here.

According to logic, finding the location of the crime is what he, the organizer, has to do, and it is also one of the incriminating evidence that he must find. If the victim can't be found, the case can't be investigated.

However, the secret agents of the king of Zhenbei did not know the location of the crime, but the barbarians were looking for the location of the crime, which showed that the bloody massacre of 3,000 miles was not really over.

"Blood. The brute on the left replied.

Xu Qi'an asked the barbarians in the middle and on the right again, and got a unified answer.

According to the analysis of the ambush case, the barbarians wanted to seize the creation of the king of Zhenbei, and they attacked in two ways: first, to seize the princess, and second, to seize the essence and blood.

According to the second point of feedback, it can be known that the case of the bloody massacre of 3,000 miles is not over, or that the king of Zhenbei has not yet been completed. Otherwise, the spies of the Qingyan Department should have withdrawn their troops long ago.

No wonder when besieging and killing the princess, there were no masters of the Qingyan Department, if nothing else, they all sneaked into Chuzhou to find the location of the bloody massacre of three thousand miles. And the secret agents of the king of Zhenbei are secretly fighting wits and courage with the barbarians, hunting each other.

No wonder when picking up the princess, there was no secret agent escort and reception, they must have been overwhelmed, on the one hand, they wanted to hide the blood slaughter for three thousand miles, and on the other hand, they wanted to hunt the barbarians who sneaked into Chuzhou.

"Only you Qingyan tribe know about this?" Xu Qi'an asked again.

"Yes. The brute replied.

It's not right......... How did the leader of the Qingyan Department know about this? Xu Qi'an pondered for a moment and said:

"Have you ever seen a warlock in the tribe? ”

"Yes. The barbarian was stunned.

Well, in this case, the Qingyan Sect knows everything about the three thousand miles of blood slaughter, and these are all told to them by the mystic warlock gang.

From this, two conclusions can be drawn: First, the mystic warlock gang is supporting the leader of the Qingyan Department and supporting him to seize the town of the Northern King and promote him to the second rank.

Second, the mystic warlock gang, seizing Dafeng's luck, supporting the barbarian leaders, infiltrating the court, and encroaching on Dafeng's national strength, the position is clear at a glance.

Xu Qi'an didn't continue to ask, and said in a deep voice: "Squat down and cover your eyes." ”

The princess skillfully cooperated, and immediately squatted down to cover her eyes.

Xu Qi'an took out the fragments of the book from the ground, put the bodies of the black-robed spy and the three barbarians into the jade mirror, and then opened the ** and collected their souls.

"Let's go!"

He came to the princess and squatted down, turned his back to her, and said, "Come up." ”

This time, the princess did not hesitate, opened her hands, and hugged Xu Qi'an's neck. She found that she no longer resisted the slightest physical contact with the man.

It's weird.

The princess turned her head and looked behind her, and a gust of wind blew, and those souls that were not real enough were like dream bubbles, tearing apart and dissipating in the wind.

She suddenly felt a heart-piercing sadness, and whispered, "He is not worthy of the title of King of Zhenbei." ”

"Shut up and hold me tight. ”

"Hmm. Her arms tightened, and she was lying on Xu Qi'an honestly.

Bang! With the muffled sound of the ground trembling, Xu Qi'an rushed out like an arrow and disappeared into the wilderness.

...........

At noon, it is 100 miles away from Sanhuang County, and the direction is west.

The princess sat by the stream, not very ladylike gnawing on a chicken leg, while eating, while looking at Xu Qi'an, who was stunned and in a daze, she has always been arrogant, and her rare tone was gentle:

"What are you going to do next?"

Xu Qi'an looked at her, smiled, and fiddled with the bonfire, "Actually, the reason why I took you north was to use you to blackmail the king of Zhenbei and make her throw a rat trap, and the original intention was bad." ”

She pursed her lips and said gloomily, "I know." ”

She is not a fool, this man went north to investigate the case, and took himself with him, what he was trying to do, she could guess it with her brain.

Xu Qi'an was surprised: "Hey, aren't you angry? This is not in line with your usual character." ”

The princess shook her head and said softly: "I have been good-looking since I was a child, when I was nine years old, I went to the Jade Buddha Temple with my parents to burn incense, and the presiding officer of the temple saw me and wrote a poem, well, you should know that poem."

"Since then, I have become famous, and my parents have worked harder and harder to cultivate me, hoping that I will become a talented woman who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

"At the age of thirteen, the pressure on the family was increasing because of their excessive beauty. Not only do I have to deal with the dignitaries who come to ask for relatives, but even some clansmen who are not related by blood have strange eyes when they look at me.

"My parents and elders have protected me well, not because they love me so much, but because they don't want any defects in their precious goods. Finally, in that year, the emperor sent someone to the door and asked me to enter the palace.

The parents and elders were overjoyed and burst into tears, yes, the goods they had worked so hard to cultivate were finally sold for the highest price.

"After I entered the palace, I only saw the emperor once, and then I was left out in the cold. Later, I learned that the emperor had already begun to cultivate the Tao at that time, and he was not close to women. This is a good thing for me, there is good food and accommodation in the palace, fine clothes and fine food, and I don't have to be wronged to cater to stinky men.

"After the Battle of Shanhaiguan, I was transferred to King Huai and became his concubine, and I lived in King Huai's Mansion for twenty years. I know exactly what the two brothers have in mind.

"But what can I do, I'm just a weak woman, not to mention that there are guards guarding and maidservants watching, even if there is no restraint, let me run, I ran from the Huaiwang Mansion to the outer city gate, and half of my life was gone.

"I've been a commodity since I was a child, and I've been given away by people all the time. When the day comes when it loses its value, it will be discarded. ”

By the campfire, she hugged her knees, her voice was soft, and there was no sadness or joy on her face.

"So I don't blame you for using me as a bargaining chip and as a cargo, compared to the two brothers, I think you are a good person. ”

This, this is too miserable, isn't it........ Xu Qi'an's heart swelled with pity, this has nothing to do with beauty, this pity is the same as for Zhong Li.

Purely out of sympathy.

He looked at the princess and questioned, "Really not weird?"

The princess was very honest this time and nodded: "Weird, I thought you were going to betray me just now, and I was so angry that I wanted to die." ”

Xu Qi'an smiled, "Women are like this, their mouths are wrong." ”

She smiled herself, and then asked, "What are you going to do with the matter of King Zhenbei, since this matter was done by him, then the nature is much, much more serious than lying about the military situation."

"If you insist on going against him, I'm afraid it won't end well. ”

The mountain breeze was blowing, the bonfire was shaking, and in the quiet atmosphere, after a lot, Xu Qi'an said slowly: "Find the location of the blood massacre for three thousand miles, stop him, punish him, if possible, I will kill him." ”

The princess looked at him stupidly.

...........

Sanhuang County, Yayin Building.

"Knock Knock ......."

Cai'er, who was leaning on the soft floor to read an idle book, heard a knock on the door, followed by the laughter of the old bustard: "Cai'er, Master Zhao is here, treat him well." ”

Cai'er received the book and replied in a coquettish voice, "Okay, Mom." ”

The door to the room opened, and in came a middle-aged man dressed as a rich man, with a lascivious smile on his face.

He stepped over the threshold, closed the door reflexively, and when he turned around, the smile on his face was gone, serious and serious.

The middle-aged man looked at Cai'er and said, "Tell him the news of Xikou County?"

Cai'er saluted and said respectfully: "Yes, he didn't doubt it. ”

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, sat down at the table, poured a cup of tea, and said leisurely: "But with his cleverness, he will definitely realize that something is wrong afterwards, but at that time, the matter will be over." ”

Cai'er didn't speak.

The middle-aged man continued: "I'm going north in the next few days, you leave Sanhuang County first, if I die on the way, you don't want to come back." ”

After a pause, he said in a serious tone, "Squire in Tsing Yi." ”

Cai'er lowered her head: "There is no regret in a hundred deaths." ”
