Three days after the battle at Shuiwu Mountain, in the morning.

Shendu, Inner City, Central of the Imperial City, Fish and Dragon Palace.

Located in the central area of the imperial city, the Fish Dragon Hall was the meeting place of the Xia Emperor and the ministers of the Xia Dynasty, that is, the place where the early dynasty was held.

The ceiling of the Fish Dragon Hall is inlaid with seven water light beads from Haizhou, and the beads emit a soft light to illuminate the entire hall. Its floor is paved with white jade slabs, and the surrounding walls are also covered with gold dust, and the whole hall is magnificent.

The most striking thing about the Ichthyosaurus Hall is the four water-blue jade pillars erected at the four corners, and the pillar body is coiled with a sacred beast shaped by jadeite - the seven-star jade ichthyosaurus. The dragon's body was densely covered with runes, and the rune light was scattered in the hall, echoing the seven stars on the ceiling.

In the Fish Dragon Palace, the ministers of the various ministries, the three dukes and the nine kings, are ranked on both sides of the main hall according to the rules of the right and the left, and the current Xia Emperor sits on the throne of the Fish and Dragon on the palace.

Emperor Xia on the throne of the fish dragon was dressed in a luxurious costume, with his hands on his thighs, and a special blue blue fish dragon carved jade Ruyi in his left hand.

This jade ruyi is called "Azure Ruyi", which is forged from the dragon scale essence dropped by Xuan Fei and other heavenly and earthly treasures, and is an exclusive secret treasure held by the Xia Emperors of the past dynasties.

Emperor Xia, who has refined the "Azure Ruyi", will be blessed by Xuan Fei's holy power, and will cultivate to be forever in the innate realm of the triple heavenly perfection, and will not be affected by the power of human immortals to stagnate time and space.

In addition to the above uses, "Azure Ruyi" has many powerful functions.

As the officials of the early dynasty successively reported the things within their duties, today's early dynasty has gradually come to an end.

After Emperor Xia corrected the last part of the book with "Azure Ruyi", he said to the ministers in the Fish Dragon Palace, "My lords, if there are no other important tasks, today's early dynasty will end here. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!" Yi Cheng, who had been waiting for a long time, walked out of the ranks of officials on the right and bowed his head and said in a deep voice.

Emperor Xia put the fold in his hand and handed it to the attendant next to him, and then said to Yi Cheng: "Yi Aiqing, since you have something, just say it!"

Yi Cheng opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, things are a little complicated, we have to start from three months ago.

Five months ago, Gongsun Que, the guard of the Shendu, handed in a document on the flow of people in the Shendu as usual. The amount of inflows from the field in the instrument is much lower than in the same period in previous years.

This difference has caught my attention! In the next four instruments, the inflow of people from the field is still much lower than in the same period of the previous year.

After some investigation by the minister, it was found that a group of unidentified warriors were secretly kidnapping people from other places, and these things were also vaguely related to the Tianxuan Star Envoy among the Seven Star Envoys. ”

Emperor Xia, who had a flat face on the throne, became solemn after listening to Yi Cheng's words, and his eyes couldn't help but be slight. I thought it was just a trivial matter, but I didn't expect it to be a big case involving a seven-star envoy.

Emperor Xia turned his head to look at Liu Qianyi, who was in the queue of military attaches on the left side of the main hall, and said in an unkind tone: "Now that Min Shangqing is in retreat, and the Seven Stars Division is in charge of Liu Shaoqing, should you come out and explain the situation?"

Liu Qianyi walked out of the ranks of military attaches and bowed his head to Emperor Xia and said, "Regarding what Yi Yushi said, the Seven Star Division is also aware of it. ”

After speaking, Liu Qianyi looked at Yi Cheng again, opened his mouth and smiled: "As for the matter of Mu Xing's envoy, I think it should be Master Yi who made a mistake." As Mu Xing's boss, I don't think she has any incentive to do such a thankless task. ”

Yi Cheng glanced at Liu Qianyi, who was smiling, and said to Emperor Xia, who was on the throne: "Your Majesty, don't listen to Liu Shaoqing's words, and I beg to investigate this matter thoroughly." ”

Liu Qianyi chuckled, turned to Emperor Xia and said, "Your Majesty, Yi Yushi said that the minister is a word, why shouldn't he?"

At this moment, a person walked out of the queue of military attachés, and it was the Shendu Guard Gongsun Que in Yi Cheng's mouth. Gongsun Que bowed his head to Emperor Xia and said, "Your Majesty, what Yi Yushi talked about,

Although the minister only handed in the paperwork, no one dared to believe that there was nothing behind this matter. Therefore, the minister also pleaded that the matter be thoroughly investigated. ”

Seeing Gongsun Que come out to speak for Yi Cheng, Liu Qianyi looked back at him with a smile, Gongsun Que would help Yi Cheng speak was indeed a little unexpected for her.

Emperor Xia groaned slightly, and said, "This matter really needs to be investigated deeply. Since it was proposed by Yi Aiqing, then Aiqing will organize people to investigate!"

Hearing this, Yi Cheng bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, but the minister still has one more thing to say, that is, he hopes that Liu Shaoqing can cooperate in investigating this matter." ”

"Why is that?" Yi Cheng's words made Emperor Xia a little puzzled. This matter involves the Seven Stars Division, why do you need Liu Qianyi to cooperate in the investigation?

is also puzzled by Liu Qianyi, after all, she is really involved in this matter. Isn't Yi Cheng afraid that she will secretly destroy the evidence?

"Your Majesty, the minister privately thought that Liu Shaoqing should not be involved in this matter. Moreover, this kind of thing involving martial artists is the responsibility of the Seven Star Division, and it is necessary to cooperate with the side. Yi Cheng explained.

Faced with Yi Cheng's statement, Emperor Xia didn't think much about it, and said: "Since this is the case, then Liu Aiqing will assist Yi Aiqing to investigate thoroughly." Retreat!"

After the retreat from the dynasty, the white jade square outside the Fish Dragon Palace.

Yi Cheng quickly caught up with Liu Qianyi, who was walking in front, walked side by side with her, and said, "What happened in the court just now, I hope Lord Liu will not misunderstand." I didn't deliberately target the Seven Stars Division, but for the sake of the security around the Divine Capital. ”

Hearing Yi Cheng's words, Liu Qianyi stopped, turned to Yi Cheng next to him and smiled: "Don't worry, Lord Yi, I don't care about this."

But what you said involves my subordinates, and it is my job to protect my subordinates. It stands to reason that Lord Yi should not misunderstand me and regard me as the mastermind behind the scenes. ”

As soon as Liu Qianyi's words fell, Yi Cheng opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Lord Liu is really joking, and I suspect that no one will doubt Lord Liu." How could Lord Yanagi do such a thing?

But Lord Liu, just because you can't do it doesn't mean that your people can't do it. Next, I would like to ask Lord Liu to cooperate well. ”

"Of course. If I-sama has nothing else to do, I'll go first. After speaking, Liu Qianyi walked towards the arch of Baiyu Square.

It's noon.

The Imperial Mansion, on the shore of the island in the middle of the lake in the West Courtyard.

Yi Cheng, who returned from the early dynasty, changed into his official uniform, and then came here, and he and Gao Ran had already agreed to meet here.

Gao Ran and Yi Cheng stood by the lake, Gao Ran leisurely and elegantly fed the carp in the lake, while Yi Cheng reported the content of the early dynasty on the side.

After Yi Cheng finished his report, Gao Ran threw the remaining fish food in his hand into the lake, causing a ripple, and at the same time said with a smile: "Lord Yushi, the things in the court are doing very well. ”

"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, I don't understand why you want me to stab this matter into the court, and you also deliberately asked Lord Liu to investigate it together?" Yi Cheng asked.

Gao Ran didn't answer at first, turned around and walked towards the meditation pavilion, and then said with a smile: "There are three main purposes for doing this.

One is to put pressure on them. Under heavy pressure, it is likely that there will be unexpected gains.

The second purpose is to take the opportunity to get close to Liu Qianyi. If you have the chance, bring her over.

The most important thing is the third purpose, to attract their attention. Compared with the disappearance of Shendu, the clue of Sister Mu is more valuable. Just two days ago, Leng Yue (Remnant Star Divine General) had secretly set off for Hokuriku Prefecture. ”

After listening to Gao Ran's explanation, Yi Cheng, who was following behind him, suddenly realized: "I see." As long as we attract the prince's attention, we will look at the remnant general's next. ”

At the same time, the Prince's Mansion.

In the prince's study, Gao Yang looked at the secret letter that had just come from the imperial city and fell into doubt. Why would Yi Cheng push this matter to the bright side, and invite Liu Qianyi to investigate together?

The puzzled Gao Yang handed the secret letter to Uncle Song on the side, and then asked, "Uncle Song, what do you think?"

After reading the content of the letter, Uncle Song thought for a while and asked, "Your Highness, my subordinates don't understand what is the use of Yi Cheng doing this. Could it be that they know about His Highness's deal with Liu Qianyi, and want to use this to get close to Liu Qianyi?"

"This is impossible! Only a few of us know about Liu Qianyi's affairs, and it is absolutely impossible for it to be leaked out. Gao Yang shook his head and denied.

Uncle Song spoke again: "Your Highness, another possibility that the matter has been stabbed to the surface is that they want us to mess with ourselves. ”

At this time, a bright light flashed in Gao Yang's eyes, and he smiled gloomily: "In this case, we will calculate it." Uncle Song, go and ask Li Fei, when will the medicinal power break out?"

PS: LOL is so fragrant, I'm coming back again. It's been delayed for too long, and the double watch is up.
