Nine Dragons Jade Cup Chapter 28 Dead Bodies on the Official Road
"There's no mechanism on the floor. ”
Qingzhu Niang, who is dressed as a man, is difficult to distinguish between male and female after wearing a brocade dress, and at this moment she is pacing back and forth around the place where the Kowloon Cup is placed that day.
The county lord of Yunxia said in a low voice: "That's natural, unless the imperial brother nods, otherwise who has the ability to install a mechanism on the Jinluan Palace? ”
"So it's just that a Sikong scout who claims to be the ancestor of thieves came in?" Qingzhu Niang seemed to smile, and it was not difficult to see that one of the six scattered people of the Red Lotus Sect was deeply dissatisfied with the imperial court.
Seeing that the county lord of Yunxia was about to get angry, Wang Chuyi hurriedly said haha: "The business is important, the business is important." ”
"Wang Chuyi, the lord of this county is also looking at your face, otherwise you think anyone in the palace can come in?"
"Yes, yes, yes. ”
Wang Chuyi smiled and nodded, and at the same time motioned to Qingzhu Niang to say a few words.
It's not a good thing to offend this aunt.
"I was here that day. ”
Xiao Wuji pointed to the position of a dragon pillar leaning against the middle of the right side of the main hall.
"The positions of the hundred officials of the imperial court are also in order, Yang Xuyan is opposite me, Karasuma is in the front position, and the Nine Dragon Cup is in the position where Qingzhu Niang stepped on his feet, but it is such a conspicuous place, the Nine Dragon Cup disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, leaving only a note. ”
"Can you tell us about the specific situation that day?" asked Wang Chuyi. "For example, what happened before the Kowloon Cup disappeared. ”
"There is light before it disappears. ”
Xiao Wuji pondered as if he was stuck in a memory.
"The Nine Dragons Cup is a treasure of the world, that day is the night, a moment before the treasure, His Majesty ordered to extinguish all the lights on the Jinluan Palace, only at the moment when the treasure box was opened, the brilliance filled the entire hall, and people poured old wine into the cup, at this time the Nine Dragons Cup suddenly ...... magnificent"
"Light. ”
Wang Chuyi, who was silently listening, suddenly widened his eyes.
"Is it possible that when Guanghua suddenly appeared, Sikong Scout took the opportunity to take away the Kowloon Cup. ”
"We've thought of what you've thought. ”
Xiao Wuji coughed softly and smiled bitterly.
"Even if it was indeed Sikong Scout who took advantage of such an instant to take away the Nine Dragons Cup and leave a note, how did he bring a Nine Dragons Cup full of wine out of the Jinluan Palace? You must know that there were not only the Imperial City Forbidden Army guarding here that day, but also many of my Jinyi Guard's guards, although these people are not said to be first-class masters, as the people of the Forbidden Army and the Jinyi Guard, their martial arts will definitely not be bad, besides...... Ahem......"
"Besides, even if the brilliance is prosperous, it is only at that moment, it stands to reason that the Kowloon Cup is like a walking sun, where does it go, how can so many eyes not see?"
Wang Chuyi and Qingzhu Niang fell into deep thought, and together with the Yunxia County Lord, they were also brought into this question.
The question that Xiao Wuji threw at the three of them made the three of them ponder for a long time, and finally Wang Chuyi wondered: "Is there such a possibility? That is, in fact, the Nine Dragons Cup never left the Jinluan Hall that day, but everyone was deceived by the superficial phenomenon." ”
"Oh?"
Everyone was surprised, and Xiao Wuji said directly: "What's the explanation?"
Wang Chuyi sorted out the thoughts in his head a little, and said in a low voice: "Everything is just a trick to find out the sky, he left a note to deliberately lead the Nine Dragons Cup to the stolen way, plus the three words of the thief's ancestors on the rivers and lakes are amazing, so he expects that no one will think that the Nine Dragons Cup is still in the main hall, but in this way, the Nine Dragons Cup must be hidden somewhere in the main hall, but if you want to do it without knowing the ghosts, there must be a mechanism." ”
"It's absolutely impossible. ”
The county lord of Yunxia immediately turned his face.
"It's ridiculous to have this idea of installing a mechanism in the Jinluan Palace, Wang Chuyi, do you know what you're talking about? Doesn't your saying this mean that my imperial brother is colluding with a thief?"
Seeing that this little ancestor was so angry, Wang Chuyi also knew that most of them were really angry, and he was also surprised in his heart, saying that Bo Qing was a royal person, but this little girl was so nervous about his imperial brother, it seems that the relationship between brother and sister is indeed very good.
Wang Chu hurriedly denied it: "I didn't mean that, after all, no matter how rare this thing is, it was also presented by the Nanzhao Dynasty, in the final analysis, it was Your Majesty who got the treasure in the end, so why did Your Majesty have to make more of a move, ......right?"
Speaking of this, Wang Chu paused, as if there was something unspeakable.
The Yunxia County Lord, who was aroused by curiosity, hurriedly asked, "What's more?"
"I don't know whether to say it or not, it's just a conjecture of mine. Wang Chuyi said.
Xiao Wuji seemed to have guessed Wang Chuyi's thoughts, and said: "On weekdays, it is the Imperial City Forbidden Army that is responsible for defending the Jinluan Palace, if it is not summoned by His Majesty, Jinyi Wei will not be able to meddle in all the affairs of the Imperial City, and the commander of the forbidden army is the King of Xinyang." ”
"Wang Chuyi, you are actually pregnant... Not... Let go of my ......"
The county lord was already talented and smart, and when he heard this, he gasped, and pointed at Wang Chuyi Before he finished speaking, Wang Chuyi stepped forward and covered his mouth tightly.
"Oh, my aunt, don't tell me, we're just talking about the case. ”
After half a day, the county lord of Yunxia finally relieved his breath and understood the importance of this matter, and said coldly: "Wang Chuyi, do you know that the speculation in your heart is a big crime of the Nine Clans?"
Wang Chuyi shrugged his shoulders and looked innocent.
Qingzhu Niang looked at Xiao Wuji and asked, "Lord Xiao, what do you think?"
Xiao Wuji said honestly: "I don't dare to speculate, but then again, I have never thought about this place." ”
Qingzhu Niang said disapprovingly: "That's because you have been an official for a long time, so you know what to think and what not to think, or what to dare to think and what to dare to think, because once you think too much, it is easy to lose your life, but our Lord Wang is different, the officialdom is stunned, dare to say and dare to think......"
Xiao Wuji smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.
However, it was the words of the county lord of Yunxia that made Wang Chuyi refute the county lord once for the first time after entering the palace this time.
"I know that this is a big crime of the Nine Clans, not to mention that I am now alone without a father and a mother, even if there are still Nine Clans, I think, if the case of the Nine Dragons Cup cannot give His Majesty a satisfactory explanation, the end will not be much better, and there will be no good end left and right, in this case, what am I afraid of?"
Next, Wang Chuyi said something arrogantly that made several people dumbfounded.
"Check, check to the end, Xiao Wuji, use all the intelligence networks we can use, pull out all the people who may have something to do with this matter, and the most important thing is to check the forbidden army first. ”
......
"It's easier said than done, how easy is it to find out about King Xinyang? He is a guy who holds the military power of the imperial city, and he is the emperor's younger brother, on the surface, it seems that we are on an equal footing with Jinyiwei, but everyone knows that once the situation is the same, the emperor will definitely keep the forbidden army and attack Jinyiwei first. ”
After returning to the headquarters, Xiao Wuji immediately listed all kinds of problems for Wang Chuyi's previous arrogance.
"What's more, for a person with the status of King Xinyang, the secret is not something you can see if I want to, and this must be nodded by another person. ”
Xiao Wuji didn't say who the other person was, Wang Chuyi didn't ask, just smiled: "Where did you go to this guy's usual cleverness? If you want to check the forbidden army, it doesn't necessarily mean that you want to check the king of Xinyang, the secrets of the king of Xinyang are not easy to handle, but the big movements of the forbidden army should not be difficult, for example, they have not made any moves in the palace in recent months, I think it is impossible for such a big thing to be without a little clue." ”
"But have you ever thought about it, it's okay if you can't find out anything, and what will happen if you find out something?"
Xiao Wuji was meaningful and threw this question to Wang Chuyi.
"With your cleverness, you shouldn't be so stupid as to believe that the Emperor will protect you. ”
"And what do you mean?
"Find the Nine Dragons Jade Cup, complete your task as the commander-in-chief of the Jinyi Guard, that's enough, and then check it out, it's not good for us, the water in the capital ...... It's deep. ”
"At first, you wanted the three of us to work together on this case. Wang Chuyi frowned, although it was explained that Zhe's self-preservation was extremely in line with Xiao Wuji's character, but if it ended here, it would inevitably be a little unreasonable.
"That's because I didn't expect this net to get bigger and bigger, so big that I don't know how to collect it, and if we can't get the fish ashore, maybe even we will be pulled off the shore by the big fish, in short, I advise you to think carefully, by the way, there is another news from the line, which may help us. ”
When the two of them met the guard who had been sent out by Xiao Wuji to investigate Karasuma, they received another important piece of news from the guard who was panting and tired of three fast horses.
"A lot of nameless dead bodies were found on the official road, fortunately, the weather is cold, if it is the height of summer, maybe the corpses have already decomposed to the point that they are unrecognizable, and the dead bodies have been brought back, please look at them as soon as possible. ”
"Is there anything surprising about the discovery of dead bodies on the official road?"
Wang Chu was surprised.
It is important to know that although it is a peaceful and prosperous era, even if the sun is in full bloom, there are still dark corners that cannot be illuminated.
The bandits and bandits still exist.
Maybe it's just killing people and selling goods.
The guard drank three glasses of water before he said, "Dead corpses are not unusual, what is strange is the clothing of these people, and even the number of dead corpses, which is exactly the same as the clothing and number of all of Karasuma." ”
