Qi Xiao walked out of the dark cell, motioned to Pei Hao to silence his voice, and walked out for a while while gnawing on an apple, making sure that Wang Tangyi in the dark cell could not hear their conversation.

"Your Highness, what's the matter with these people?"

What Pei Hao asked was "these", one was in the dark cell, the other was just taken into the cell, and the other was supposed to be made by Chi Yueyirong.

"Master Pei, do you still remember that I was ordered by His Majesty to investigate Lord Luo's case at first, and I went to Lord Luo's mansion that night to investigate some things?"

Pei Hao nodded, he naturally remembered that this was only a few days ago.

That night, Qi Xiao delineated the escape route of the murderer in the two directions of Xuanzhengfang and Pingxiangfang.

"In the capital city of Yuan Dynasty, there are not too many masters who have the ability to sneak into the Dali Temple Qing's mansion at midnight, kill people and get out of the body. There are eight people except for a few people who have evidence that it is impossible to commit murder. , three of them live in Xuanzhengfang and Pingxiangfang, the most suspected.

I tried a little trick. "

"The pursuit in the street is a temptation? Is it a subterfuge?!" Pei Hao raised his voice by two points. The city of Yuanjing is already lively, not to mention Dongshi, what if the sword has no eyes and accidentally injures an innocent person?Qi Xiao just to test?There is no way to handle the case. What kind of gangster methods are used in this?How can it be something that a prince can do? !

"Lord Pei, don't get angry, I know it's not appropriate to do things like this, but I have no other way.

I also tried to ask Mr. Cao for help before, but I was rejected. If I can get help from the Gyeonggi Metropolitan Government, I don't have to make such a bad move.

Knowing that this is a bad strategy, Master Pei would not agree to help me if he hadn't killed me first, right? "

"...This... This is not an excuse!"

Qi Xiao knew that Pei Hao's straightforward personality must have been pissed off by him, otherwise he wouldn't have taught him such a crime.

He gnawed half of the apple in his hand, and it was not easy to continue eating leisurely now, so he had to stand with his hands behind his back and bow his head to listen to the instruction, not because he did something wrong, but because he understood Pei Hao's integrity and admired it He has righteousness in mind.

This scene resembled the appearance of Gu Shanmo holding up a ruler to beat him up when he got into trouble in Han Chenzong.

Qi Xiao's eyes darkened, and there were too many feelings and reluctance in his heart, which gradually turned into pain.

"Your Highness...Your Highness is so disregarding the law, how is it different from that murderer!" Pei Hao knew that he shouldn't say this and couldn't say it, but he couldn't help it, not for anything else, just because he treated Qi Xiao differently, Qi Xiao is different from the other princes who "why not eat minced meat", that's why Pei Hao unconsciously has different expectations.

Now I’m afraid that I’ve seen and thought wrong.

"Lord Pei, I made an appointment to fight them as a Jianghu, and I did not violate the laws of our dynasty.

If it wasn't for their own guilty conscience and showing their flaws, Mr. Pei would just have a drink with his colleagues. "

"That...the other one, isn't it made by Chi Yueyi?"

"It's Chi Yue that's right."

Qi Xiao turned around and walked out, "Master Pei might as well listen to me explain the matter in detail."

Pei Hao sighed deeply, even if he wanted to question the crime, he had to give Qi Xiao a chance to defend himself.

"You just said three people, but there are only two people in Dali Temple, and there is one swordsman who seems to have escaped. I don't know if the Duhu Mansion has got anyone."

"The other one who escaped was Zong Sheng pretending to be him. The real one is Li Sheng, who has already been taken away by Tiance Camp."

"Tiance camp?" Pei Hao was startled, although His Majesty did indeed call Tiance camp before, but what he said was to let Tiance camp protect him well, what kind of people in the world need to use Tiance camp to deal with them?

"Leaving aside that Li Sheng, he has little to do with Lord Luo's case."

Qi Xiao threw away half an apple, wiped his hands clean, and sat down to talk to Pei Hao, "I borrowed Li Sheng's identity to invite these two people to compete in martial arts. Wang Tangyi and Qian Chong originally just wanted to test their martial arts skills. They counted, but they didn’t expect that they not only knew each other very well, as soon as Qian Chong received the post, he went to Wang Tangyi to inquire about Li Sheng’s news, and asked Wang Tang for help.”

Pei Hao doesn't understand the rules of the rivers and lakes. The people of the rivers and lakes are in the capital of Yuan, and they know each other. Even some friendships don't seem to be inappropriate. What exactly is Qi Xiao talking about?

"My lord, people in the Jianghu also behave according to the rules. Qian Chong and Wang Tangyi are not from Yuanjing. The first thing to do after arriving in Yuanjing is to pay a visit to the pier, explain the purpose of coming and promise not to cause trouble. Generally, you will receive a letter of invitation. After that, they will inform the proprietor as soon as possible to avoid misunderstanding, and will choose an appropriate time and place."

Seeing that Pei Hao was puzzled, Qi Xiao explained a few more sentences.

"Yuanjing City is an important place in Gyeonggi, and gangs in the rivers and lakes dare not even be local snakes. The wharf that Yuanjing needs to visit is obviously the world's bodyguard bureau, but in fact it is the capital of Gyeonggi."

Pei Hao knew that the Tianxia Escort Bureau was the largest bodyguard bureau in the Chen Kingdom, and that famous firms in Yuanjing all relied on the Tianxia Escort Bureau for their goods, including business purchased by the royal family.

It is a matter of course that the Tianxia Escort has a close relationship with the Gyeonggi Metropolitan Government.

"After Qian Chong and Wang Tang received the post, they didn't go to the Tianxia Escort Bureau, but after making up their minds, they set the competition in Shenshi and the downtown area in the east of the city.

As soon as Wang Tang sent Qian Chong away, he immediately went to Longtaixing Bank, and he went through the back door, so he was obviously the shopkeeper.

Longtaixing is the property of the Qin family, Mr. Pei should know about it, right? "

Pei Hao nodded slightly. Qi Xiao understood what he said here. If Qian Chong and Wang Tangyi were ordinary Jiang Hu people, they only needed to compete with Li Sheng according to the rules of the Jiang Hu. , in order to prevent any mistakes, it is necessary to speak to the "employer" first.

Qi Xiao originally wanted to throw stones to ask for directions, but they didn't call themselves.

"This is Wang Tangyi in the dark cell?"

"Exactly."

"Since you suspect them, why don't you just bring them back for questioning?" Pei Hao knew in his heart that even if they were brought back, they would not speak up without proof, but fighting with swords in the street was really inappropriate.

"Now Qian Chong thinks that Wang Tangyi and Li Sheng are united to kill him, so that he can tell us the truth.

And I asked Zong Sheng and Chi Yue to make things so big, and I asked Mr. Pei to testify in person, not only for the confession of the two of them, but also to force Mr. Cao. "

That's right, if you want to investigate in a legitimate way, you have to rely on the Gyeonggi Governor's Office to come forward.

After all, Cao Weishan still has to decide the big and small affairs of Yuanjing City. Even if he is detained in Dali Temple at this moment, if Cao Weishan suddenly reacts and finds important people, Pei Hao can't forcefully detain him. At that time, Cao Weishan can do whatever he wants. If you find a reason to deal with him, you won't offend the Qin family at all.

But now that the incident happened in Dongshi, in front of the dozen or so adults in Dali Temple, it is impossible for Cao Weishan to make a big deal happen.

"Your Highness, you... have offended many people at once."

Pei Hao was worried about Qi Xiao. It is impossible for the Qin family to be implicated by two Jianghu people. Even if there are testimonies to testify, they will say that they are chasing and biting randomly. The Qin family can't be moved.

It's probably too aggressive for Qi Xiao to startle the snake like this.

Qi Xiao laughed: "Lord Pei, don't worry about me, let's try Qian Chong and Wang Tangyi first."

Qi Xiao can't touch the Qin family, but His Majesty may not be able to tolerate it.

He dared to make trouble like this because Chi Yue was by his side, and everything he did would be transmitted to His Majesty's ears through Chi Yue.

If His Majesty wants to stop him, as soon as he sends Wang Tang to Dali Temple in the afternoon, His Majesty should call him into the palace, and Chi Yue will not help him make trouble together.

Since His Majesty acquiesces, how could he be ashamed if he doesn't make a fuss happily.

***

In the Huaxi courtyard, Huang Zexian personally sent a message to Tang Ling: "Qian Chong and Wang Tangyi have been taken to Dali Temple, and Li Sheng is missing."

Tang Ling read the book quietly, her face was calm, as if everything was expected, she smiled lightly: "It's hard for Cao Weishan, these days I can't even sleep peacefully."

"Young Master's guess is right, Cao Weishan has already rushed to Dali Temple."

Huang Zexian was a little worried, and said, "Since Cao Weishan is such a loving and caring person, if he wants him out of Dali Temple, he might sell the Qin family's face and treat Qian Chong and Wang Tangyi lightly. Once they leave the capital The Protectorate, I am afraid that it will disappear from the world from now on."

"There are people from Tiance Camp beside Qi Xiao, so His Majesty already knew everything, this matter is beyond Cao Weishan's control.

Don't worry, Uncle Huang. "

"But with only two warriors, what can we do to defeat the Qin family?"

"Of course not.

But in Chen Guochao, it's not that the Qin family is the only one, and isn't there the Gongsun family who is eyeing it?It's a common thing to come up out of nowhere, but now that the Bai Qin family has made such a big mistake, how can the Gongsun family let go of such an opportunity? "Tang Ling turned a page of the book, and during the question and answer with Huang Zexian, her thoughts were still concentrated between the lines in the book, and she continued to chat like a small talk, "I don't need to do anything, just let it develop. "

Huang Zexian nodded, and said: "The Ministry of Rites sent an agenda today, the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, and the peace talks will not be delayed any longer."

Tang Ling still smiled: "Wait a little longer, there will be a new agenda tomorrow."

"This...why?"

"Originally, the person in charge of the peace talks was Chu You, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Uncle Qin Guo was the assistant manager. There may be adjustments later."

"The peace talks are a big deal, just like a battlefield. I'm afraid it's impossible to change generals before the battle?"

"It's impossible to change it, but it's still possible to change it."

"change?"

Tang Ling didn't say much, just smiled and said: "Tomorrow, at the latest the day after tomorrow, we will know.

Uncle Huang just negotiated a peace according to the plan.

Starting tomorrow, Uncle Huang will have to work hard. "
