Sanlu Dafu Gongzi Lan is the eldest son of Xiong Cheng, the younger brother of Chu Wang Shang, Xiong Cheng died early, Xiong Wang Shang took pity on his loyalty and honesty, and treated his son well. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 As a result, Gongzi Lan took advantage of this opportunity to stand out, and when he was young, he won the prominent position of Sanlu doctor. The main responsibilities of the three Lu doctors are to manage the internal affairs of the royal family of the Chu palace and the six major princes, coordinate the relationship between the upper and lower levels, and picket the lawless. Traditionally, this position was generally held by a respected elder within the royal family. However, the king of Chu never played cards according to common sense, and appointed officials to act rashly, leaving no trace to be found, and the appointment of Gongzilan was an example. However, surprisingly, Gongzilan did an extremely good job in this position, he was shrewd and capable, diligent, and maneuvered between the major clans. It's so sophisticated that it's hard to imagine that this was the work of a twenty-year-old. What's even more rare is that he never participated in gang disputes, nor did he rely on any big clans, he was good at himself, clean himself, and in a short time, he won the reputation of a capable minister in the Chu Palace.

Gongzilan attached great importance to the case of the assassination of the nineteenth son, and the efficiency was extremely high, and after the nineteenth son returned to the palace, it took only three days to secretly investigate the basic situation. There are three biggest suspects: the eldest son Xiong Zhang, Jing's, and Dou's. The investigation is as follows:

Xiong Zhang has been thinking about it behind closed doors in the house during the worship of his ancestors in Jingshan, and no one in the house has left the city during this period, if there is no special discovery, it seems that the suspicion can be ruled out.

During this period, in addition to ordinary soldiers, 26 people from the Jing clan went out of the city, and three of them accompanied the nine sons Xionghuai to participate in the prayer ceremony. There were twenty-three people who accompanied Jinghu to worship Jing's ancestors. After careful investigation, on the day of the 19th assassination, Jinghu and others were in the ancestral hall, and no one went down the mountain to go out, only the uncle and grandson of the family went to the ancestral hall of the Dou clan to greet the patriarch of the Dou clan on behalf of the Jing clan, Dou Zhong, who was said to be in poor health. The intimate relationship between the two families is not inappropriate.

During this period, in addition to ordinary soldiers, thirteen members of the clan went out of the city to worship their ancestors, among which the martial arts instructor Xi Douda went down the mountain and returned to the city in advance to do business. This Dou Da is the martial arts master of Dou Zhong's grandson Dou Bo, who mainly teaches bow and arrow archery, and has never heard of making good use of Gu poison, and has no resemblance to the old man mentioned in the nineteenth year, and most importantly, no one has ever seen Dou Da raise a monkey.

In addition to these key suspicions, Gongzilan also investigated several other major families who went to Jingshan to worship their ancestors, and none of them found anyone similar to the old monkey raiser. Obviously, this matter was not done by people from Yingdu, and it is likely that people from outside the capital came to Jingshan to commit the crime. But who exactly instructed this person, and how did he know the whereabouts of Nineteen? The case was at an impasse at this point, but fortunately it was a secret investigation and did not cause any shock in Yingdu.

After hearing the report, although the king of Chu was angry, he was helpless, and he couldn't blame Gongzi Lan. Gongzilan investigated this matter so clearly in such a short period of time, and she is indeed talented. Although this matter was fruitless, it made people impeccable about him. Seeing the King of Chu walking around like a trapped beast, Gongzilan calmly told the King of Chu that he had a clever plan to lure the assassin to take the bait, so as to lay a net to capture him in one fell swoop. Chu Wangshang's anger decreased slightly, and he appreciated Gongzi Lan more and more. and ordered Gongzilan to let go of the arrangement, and instructed him not to reveal it to anyone in the six major families.

Nineteen's daily life has also changed a little, in addition to going to the palace to study and insist on cultivation, he is often led out of the palace by Xiang Bei to play in Xiang's mansion in Yingdu. Gongxue has a day off every five days, and whenever there is a holiday, Xiang Bei plans the content of the game early, or hiking, or drinking in a wine shop, or learning martial arts together. Qu Qi, Zhao Slip, Ye Fei and others also joined in, and as they became more and more familiar with Nineteen, their impression of this intelligent young man became better and better. Although Nineteen is a prince, he has never had the arrogance and domineering of a prince, and his mouth is sweet, and Brother Xiang, Brother Qu, Brother Zhao, and Brother Ye shout every day. After a long time, everyone gradually regarded Nineteen as a member of a team, and even the cautious and cunning Zhao Slip gradually lost his guard.

The nine sons Xionghuai also intended to approach nineteen. This time, when he was assassinated, he inexplicably made a great contribution, which made Chu Wangshang look at him with admiration, and he was a big step closer to the position of the crown prince. In addition to thanking Xiang Bei for taking care of the overall situation, he realized the importance of the Nineteenth Prince more clearly, and before that, he really ignored this little brother who was five or six years younger than him. So, from time to time, he led Xiong Yue to participate in the activities organized by Xiang Bei, but with him present, the atmosphere was obviously much colder. The smart Xiong Yue was reluctant to come out with Xiong Huai from then on, but directly entangled Xiang Bei and Nineteen. Xiang Bei dared to take the princess out of the palace easily, so he forced Xiong Yue to ask the queen for advice, and the queen really gave face and responded to every request, so that the small team members had one more princess dressed as a man.

In the blink of an eye, it is March when the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the whole Yingdu is full of spring. On both sides of the street, inside and outside the palace wall, pear blossoms are like snow, and catkins are like smoke. Occasionally, a spring rain makes the Yingdu in early spring filled with intoxicating freshness, which makes people's hearts sprout the feeling that life is being prompted again.

On this day, it was the rest day of Gongxue, and Xiang Bei couldn't wait to invite everyone to go to Jingshan. But this time, Nineteen unexpectedly refused, for the simple reason that his uncle Sniper came back as promised.

The sniper first went to the palace guard's presidential leader Jing Bolun to cancel his leave, and was invited by Zhaohu to talk secretly for a while, and then returned to Biyou Palace. Concubine Xi instructed her subordinates to serve tea, and at the same time arranged for someone to notify Nineteen, who was studying in the palace.

After a while, Nineteen hurriedly ran back, and when he saw the sniper, he hurriedly knelt down and bowed. Sniper looked at Nineteen, who hadn't seen him for half a year, and was faintly excited in his heart. After more than a year of getting along day and night, he has truly regarded this prince of Chu as his disciple. And not only that, he has begun to love him and miss him from the bottom of his heart, just like a grandfather loves his grandson, without regrets, without desires. After returning to the barbarian tribe this time, he didn't even mention Nineteen to his clansmen, only that he already had the whereabouts of Qiankun Jade. He feared that his people would demand that he be against Nineteen, and he could no longer allow anyone to harm Nineteen, not even his own people.

The sniper man concealed the love in his heart, sat upright, and asked seriously:

"I'm away these days, can you stick to cultivating?"

Nineteen replied respectfully:

"The disciple's Tengyun Phantom Step has been small, and it can be breathed three times in the air, and the height of the jump can reach three zhang, and it can change seven body methods. ”

Sniper nodded with satisfaction, and then said:

"Not bad, so you can learn to shapeshift. ”

Nineteen Joy Authentic:

"Shapeshifting must be amazing, isn't it possible to become invisible if you learn it?"

The sniper smiled: "How can there be any stealth in the world? It's just that the body shape changes too fast, so people can't see clearly." After a pause, the monkey face was stiff, and he said solemnly:

"Starting tomorrow, you have to insist on high-intensity training for three months, during which you don't have to go to the palace school, I have already asked for leave for you. ”

It's highly training again! Nineteen's excitement cooled down suddenly, and he couldn't help but lament psychologically, he really had to endure hardship. Since I came to Shinan Mountain to learn art, it has never been easy. Could it be that Brother Xiang, they also have to train intensively at every turn to learn martial arts?

Ignoring Nineteen's frustrated expression, Sniper continued:

"The art of shapeshifting is extremely magical and mysterious, and Uncle Shi, I just have a glimpse of the door. According to the inheritance left by the ape god, there are three layers of techniques in this secret technique, one is more difficult to practice than the other, and of course, the first layer is more magical and mysterious than the other. I'm only staying at the second level, and if I reach the third level, I'll be able to touch the threshold of the magic skill of Glimpse of Light. However, if you want to practice to the third level, you have to have a great opportunity, and it is no longer something I can guide. Even if you want to practice to the level of Uncle and Me, it will take ten years of work. ”

"Ten years?" Nineteen exclaimed, "It's too long! Wouldn't it take twenty years to learn the third-level Floating Light Glimpse Divine Technique?!"

Sniper sneered: "Ten years is a long time for you? If you can complete ten years of study, you will only be twenty years old." And at the age of twenty, you have the Shapeshifting and Shadow Changing Technique, there will be no second person in the world, what are you not satisfied with? As for the Floating Light Glimpse Divine Skill, I only have the method of cultivation, but I have never been able to practice it, if you want to practice this technique, then you have to rely on your master, maybe the Chaos Qi Alchemy Technique you practice can break through the bottleneck, it is not known. ”

Hearing the sniper mention of Master Shi Nanzi, Nineteen hurriedly asked:

"I don't know where Master is now? Why didn't he come to see me? I haven't seen him for a year, I miss him so much!"

"Your master is not in Shinanshan now, when I saw him half a year ago, he told me that he was going to Wei to see Mr. Xu Wugui, and he would come back in about a year." He asked me to tell you that you must not delay your cultivation, and when you have cultivated your internal strength to the mixed element level, he will naturally come to see you. ”

Nineteen was very disappointed in his heart, it seemed that he had not been able to see Master and his old man for a long time.

After thinking about it, Nineteen asked again:

"Uncle Shi, since the Shape-shifting and Shadow-changing Body Method requires long-term cultivation, then why do you old man have to train intensively for three months?

The sniper glared at Nineteen fiercely, and was about to say something, when he caught a glimpse of Concubine Xi and Ziyan, so he stopped talking.

Concubine Xi smiled slightly, knowing the intention of the sniper, she pulled Ziyan, and the two of them withdrew from the reception room. She didn't like this old man who looked like a big horse monkey at all, but seeing that he was sincere to Nineteen, she was usually respectful and polite to him. Seeing him talking in a hurry today, he obviously didn't want her and Ziyan to hear it.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, the sniper said to Nineteen in a low voice, "I didn't want to tell you some things too early, but you have so many questions." Anyway, I'll tell you some things about the barbarians and some of the secrets of Uncle Shi himself, and you have to keep your mouth shut, and you can't tell anyone. Except, of course, your master. ”
