Chapter Ninety-Eight: Luring the Fish to the Bait

Today, there are only two days left before the Tianshu Pavilion exam.

Su Yang has basically had nothing to do these days except for training Jiang Feiyu.

His cultivation path is different from others, even if he meditates all day, his cultivation will not be able to make any progress, unless he enters a state of epiphany, he may gain something.

But the epiphany is so easy.

If he can't find 'Gu Nan Mountain' for a day, Su Yang's cultivation will not be able to advance an inch for a day, and he is actually more anxious than anyone else.

Entering the Heavenly Book Pavilion was his only hope.

In 'Gu Nan Mountain', there must be something left by the master, but why have I been looking for so long, but I can't even find the shadow of 'Gu Nan Mountain'.

No one had even heard of this name, not even Zhong Lihou, who was confused when he heard 'Gu Nanshan'.

If there was no record of 'Gu Nan Mountain' in even the Heavenly Book Pavilion, then Su Yang really didn't know what to do.

It is possible that 'Gu Nanshan' was the name of the past, but now it has long since changed its name.

But Su Yang couldn't figure it out, even if it was like this, how could anyone not know the words 'Gu Nanshan'?

If it weren't for the fact that this 'Gu Nan Mountain' changed its name thousands of years ago, the only explanation is that there is a huge secret hidden in this 'Gu Nan Mountain'.

Someone deliberately closed the message.

There don't seem to be many people who have the ability to block the entire Great Wei and keep people silent.

And Su Yang found that anyone he asked, or somewhere, got the answer that he didn't know and hadn't heard of it. It's not like I don't dare to say it, but I really don't know.

This is what really makes Su Yang feel incomprehensible.

What kind of place is this 'Gu Nan Mountain'?

While thinking about this question, Su Yang took a walk in the Hou Mansion, and unknowingly, came to the outside of Zhong Lihou's study.

The door of the study was ajar, and the sound of conversation could be faintly heard inside.

Li Xiang arched his hand towards Zhongli Hougong and said in a deep voice: "Master Hou, the old housekeeper of the Cangkong clan died tragically on Luoyang Long Street for no reason, which has alarmed the military department. Because of the special identity, the military department has launched a comprehensive investigation, and there is also movement in the mansion of the Cangkong clan, it seems that the guards are gathered, as if the murderer has been found. ”

Zhong Lihou's fists clenched subconsciously, if what his son said was true, the boss was killed by him, and if the Cangkong clan really found out, they would have an excuse to attack.

The military department has intervened, and if His Majesty knows about it, I am afraid that this matter will not be good.

After the incident of the life and death fight, because of Zhong Lihou and Cangkong Hui's gamble, the power of the Cangkong clan was weakened, which His Majesty was happy to see.

The power of the ministers of the court is strong, which no emperor wants to see, so the ministers will also have checks and balances with each other.

Zhongli Houfu encompasses all the cultivation resources of the Cangkong Great Clan, and its power is no longer comparable to that of the past.

Zhong Lihou was not sure that His Majesty would attack him.

Even if he doesn't destroy himself with the help of Cangkong Xuan, he will definitely suppress the forces of the Hou Mansion.

This is inevitable, Zhong Lihou knows very well in his heart that he is devoted to Emperor Wei, and he believes that Emperor Wei will not really do anything to him.

But once the truth of the matter surfaces, Jiang Feiyu will definitely be punished, which is unavoidable.

Since Jiang Feiyu killed the old manager, he left a living mouth, giving people the opportunity to make trouble, which was a relatively stupid mistake.

But Zhong Lihou can't blame his son, and the only thing he can do now is to make amends.

Although the military department has intervened, the news should not have reached His Majesty's mouth yet.

After all, no matter how special his status is in the Sky Clan, he is just a housekeeper.

It's not yet to the point where His Majesty will personally intervene.

But once Cangkong Wei attacks the Hou Mansion, he will inevitably take the initiative to find His Majesty and let him have one more backing.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Cangkong Wei has determined that the murderer is Jiang Feiyu.

If he wants to save his son, he must first go to meet His Majesty, and maybe things will turn around.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhong Lihou immediately said: "Li Xiang, you go to the Sky Clan immediately, remember, it is a secret operation, and it cannot be discovered by them." It is necessary to investigate whether they have really found the murderer. I will now go into the palace to meet Your Majesty. ”

Li Xiang said in surprise: "Master Hou, why is this?"

Zhong Lihou sighed, and did not hide it, he had 100% trust in Li Xiang, this is his brother who was born and died.

"The old manager was killed by the fish. If the old man really finds out about the fish, he will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble, and I must take a step forward to meet His Majesty. ”

Li Xiang's face was full of disbelief, he was still fighting with Jiang Feiyu the day before yesterday, knowing his current strength, how could he kill the old boss the next moment?

But since Zhong Lihou said so, the truth will definitely not be false, he immediately knew the seriousness of the matter, nodded immediately, and was about to turn around and leave.

But at this time, the door of the study was pushed open from the outside, Su Yang looked at the two of them and said, "Master Hou and General Li, don't be impatient." ”

"Chu Jiang?" Zhong Lihou and Li Xiang were both stunned.

Su Yang arched his hand and said, "I passed by here just now, and my conversation was overheard by me. It was definitely not deliberately eavesdropping, and please don't blame Hou Ye. ”

Zhong Lihou waved his hand, indicating that it was okay, and said curiously: "Young Master Chu stopped us, but what do you think?"

Su Yang put his hands behind his back and said indifferently: "I know everything about what happened, although there was indeed a living mouth at the scene, but that person didn't see the face of the little marquis. Cangkong Hui's move was obviously to lure the murderer to take the bait, if Hou Ye acted at this time, they would immediately be aware of it, so as to determine that the murderer was Jiang Feiyu. ”

Zhong Lihou said in surprise: "Is Young Master Chu saying that Cangkong Huang didn't know that the murderer was a fish, but they deliberately spread the news in order to find out the murderer?"

"That's right. Su Yang nodded and continued: "So Master Hou can rest assured, you don't need to take any action, just stay normal." When Cangkong Wei couldn't determine who the murderer was, he didn't dare to rashly meet His Majesty, let alone take the opportunity to attack the Hou Mansion. If he doesn't get it right, he will be blamed by His Majesty, and he will only really take action after he is truly sure of the murderer. As long as Hou Ye does not move, he will have nothing to do, and this difficulty can be easily resolved. ”

Zhong Lihou frowned and said, "If that old puppet dog jumps over the wall in a hurry and wants to take advantage of the death of the housekeeper to attack my Hou Mansion." Aren't we going to be caught off guard?"

Su Yang shook his head and said, "This is impossible, the Tianshu Pavilion exam is about to start, Cangkong Ning is the hope of the entire Cangkong clan, they will not take risks at this juncture." As long as they can't find out who the murderer is, the matter will be closed. On the contrary, once Hou Ye has scruples in his heart and can't help but show up, things will become very bad. ”

"Young Master Chu, if you hadn't reminded me, I would have been fooled, and I would have been so thrilled. Zhong Lihou's heart sank, hearing Su Yang's words, he didn't know the consequences of showing up, and he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat.
