The mountains and rivers are quiet and broad

Zuo Ming is in a good mood these past few days, anyone can see that.

In the words of Grandpa Quan: "Look at that little face and those little eyes, you're so proud of yourself."

Zuo Ming always wanted to laugh, he couldn't help it, but as long as he thought of that night when Guan Hongfeng hugged him tightly, he couldn't help but tense his face, his cheeks turned red little by little, and the feeling of shyness made his heart itch. .

In Xu Qingfeng's eyes, Zuo Ming's appearance was "full of spring love", which made people unable to bear to look directly at him.

Xu Qingfeng couldn't help "complaining" to Chen Ke. Chen Ke seemed to think of something, and he rarely smiled with his brows crooked, and teased him: "Well, it's not like you. When I just woke up, there were always two bags of water in my eyes." , those who don’t know think that this palace is robbing good family members by force.”

At that time, Xu Qingfeng was full of things in his heart. At one moment he was happy that Chen Ke was treating him well, but at another moment he was afraid that Chen Ke would know the truth about his being poisoned. .

Thinking about it this way, Xu Qingfeng didn't seem to have experienced those times when lovers should bump into each other.He and Chen Ke seem to have stepped into the "Old Man, Old Man" mode all of a sudden.

Xu Qingfeng suddenly felt a little regretful.

Chen Ke has been paying attention to Xu Qingfeng, seeing this and asked him: "What?"

Xu Qingfeng walked up to Chen Ke and hugged him, whispering, "My injury has healed a lot..."

Chen Ke held Xu Qingfeng's hand around his waist, "Leaving in five days. Huh?"

Only then did Xu Qingfeng show a reassuring smile, and then he thought about the matter of Mount Dami, "What about those bandits on Mount Dami?"

When Guan Hongfeng was not around, Zuo Ming took over Guan Hongfeng's usual work. If he wanted to suppress the bandits in Dami Mountain, Zuo Ming would be the main force. However, the guards at Xiao Zhaizi became a problem again, and in what name should they be suppressed?

So Chen Ke means: It is best for the Qianzhou government to come forward and kill them.

"Isn't it okay in the name of fighting the Demon Cult?" Xu Qingfeng thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, didn't you give the imperial edict."

Chen Ke pondered for a while, then shook his head, "Fighting against the Devil's Cult is just a trick he set up. Now the situation in the capital is complicated, and Chen Mao is struggling. Before he finds out the exact thing, it is easy to startle the snake."

What Chen Ke said was the truth. If it weren't for the poison on his body, Chen Mao would not have let Chen Ke leave the capital, in some respects.The banner of King Ren is better than the emperor's imperial decree.

Xu Qingfeng carefully observed Chen Ke's expression, and couldn't see anything unusual, and said bluntly: "I always thought that you and the emperor had a bad relationship."

"Before..."

Before he was reborn, Chen Ke always thought that the person who poisoned him was Chen Mao, so he hated Chen Mao a lot. It was only after returning to Beijing that the two had a conversation and discovered many misunderstandings.While pondering, Chen Ke reached out and hooked out the life and death stone under Xu Qingfeng's collar.

"Rebirth, is it because of the life and death stone?"

Xu Qingfeng told Chen Ke what Aman had said before, and he also lowered his head to look at the white jade on his neck: "Aman said it was the stone of life and death, but..."

Xu Qingfeng frowned before continuing: "What a coincidence, Aman also has the Stone of Life and Death."

Chen Ke looked at the white stone over and over again, Xu Qingfeng felt that this posture was uncomfortable, so he simply took off the necklace.

"It seems brighter." Chen Ke used the light to look at the white jade in his hand, "It's more transparent."

Xu Qingfeng nodded, and told him about the fog when he fell into a coma.Chen Ke pondered for a while, and also talked about his encounters after the fire, including the temples and monks he saw after the fog.

Listening to Chen Ke's description, Xu Qingfeng frowned. He only felt that the eminent monk Chen Ke was talking about seemed to have an impression on him and was related to this jade, but Xu Qingfeng couldn't remember anything. This picture, the harder I think about it, the more painful my brain is, a bit like the symptoms when he was not awake.

"Xu Qingfeng?" Chen Ke noticed that Xu Qingfeng's expression was not right, so he couldn't help calling him, calling him several times, Xu Qingfeng suddenly came back to his senses, and said a little tiredly: "It's okay..."

Chen Ke frowned, with a complicated look on his face.

After returning to the capital, Chen Ke sent someone to invite a famous Taoist priest to ask about the explanation of rebirth. The Taoist priest said: He has heard of resurrection from the dead, and also heard of resurrection with corpses, but he can't understand it.

According to Taoist priests, if Chen Ke returned to the time when he was not dead a year ago, it would not be called returning to life, nor would it be called reviving the dead, but going back in time.Human life has its own destiny, even if time goes back, it will go back to the previous path, and nothing can be changed.

But everything has not only changed, but also developed in two completely different directions from before the rebirth.

Chen Ke also discovered some minor details that were different from his own impression.For example, the relationship between Chen Mao and the national teacher, such as Yan Keqing's participation in the Jinwang case, these are actually different from Chen Ke's rebirth, but the approximate timeline still coincides.

Xu Qingfeng knew more about rebirth than Chen Ke, because Xu Kuining also had the experience of rebirth.

But Xu Qingfeng believes that the three thousand worlds and three thousand developments, because Chen Ke and Xu Qingfeng changed their minds, it is understandable that things will be completely different.

But Chen Ke felt that there were omissions in Xu Qingfeng's deduction, but Chen Ke still couldn't say what rebirth was.

Since there was no solution, he put it aside for now, and Chen Ke changed the subject: "Do you know how Guan Hongfeng's eyes were hurt at that time?"

Xu Qingfeng was drinking water from a cup, and his mood had already eased. Hearing this, he just shook his head.

Chen Ke tapped the armrest of the chair subconsciously with his fingertips, "Chen Mao did it."

"Your Majesty?" Xu Qingfeng showed a surprised expression.

"Not like?"

Xu Qingfeng thought for a while, then shook his head.He had almost no direct contact with Chen Mao, and his understanding of Chen Mao came from previous investigations.

Chen Mao was investigated before he was reborn in order to prevent King Ren from assuming the throne. If Chen Ke is a jade that is freezing cold, Chen Mao is a precious jade that shines brightly in the court, so Xu Qingfeng has always taken it for granted that Chen Mao is more suitable for the position of emperor than Chen Ke.

Chen Ke is the "king of benevolence" and Chen Mao is the "king of sincerity".It has to be said that Emperor Xuanwu knew his sons very well, and the titles they granted were very close to their essence. Chen Ke looked cold and was regarded by everyone as an evil star.

However, Chen Ke, who grew up in Xiangguo Temple since he was a child, has all the people in the world in mind, and he really deserves "benevolence".

Chen Mao, on the other hand, has rules and regulations in doing things, and is polite to others, but whether he treats people or does things, he is very principled and can distinguish right from wrong, so he is "sincerity".

Such Chen Mao killed all the palace servants in Taiheng Palace and cut off Guan Hongfeng's eyes?Xu Qingfeng looked at Chen Ke: "My lord, why did you think..."

Why did he want to usurp the throne? Chen Ke knew what Xu Qingfeng wanted to ask.At that time, Xu Qingfeng had already entered the palace in disguise and secretly monitored Chen Ke's movements. It's also extremely weird.

Speaking of this, Chen Ke sneered, "Of course someone provoked me."

Chen Ke's expression was very cold, and there was a faint murderous look in his eyes. Xu Qingfeng was startled for a moment, and held Chen Ke's hand, trying to comfort him.Chen Ke held Xu Qingfeng's hand backhand, signaling that he was fine.

"It's Yan Keqing?" It's not surprising that Xu Qingfeng would guess like this. On the surface, it seems that there are so many turmoil in the court that have nothing to do with Yan Keqing, but Chen Ke always targets Yan Keqing with suspicion.Of course, what was found is another matter.

Chen Ke nodded, and then asked Xu Qingfeng: "Have you checked him?"

Of course you are referring to the Xu Mansion, Xu Qingfeng nodded, of course they checked.However, Xu Qingfeng did not seek an official position, so he didn't know much about it. It was Xu Kuining who had dealt with Yan Keqing.Before Xu Kuining had time to introduce Xu Qingfeng into the center of his layout, something happened to Xu's residence.

Chen Ke was not surprised by the answer, and nodded to indicate that it was okay.

Xu Qingfeng knocked on his forehead with his index finger, "I do know one thing, Yan Keqing is not from Jin, but from southern Xinjiang. My father said that there used to be an ancient clan there, but I don't know its whereabouts later. There are many people there. Xinghuashu, I saw that Xiaobie liked Xinghuajiu very much, and it even connected the two of them together."

Xu Qingfeng smiled, feeling that his guess was unreliable, and said it as a joke, but Chen Ke raised his eyebrows and intuitively grasped the joint.

When Chen Ke connected the demon sect that caused chaos in the Jianghu with the turmoil in the court, Chen Mao questioned: How can Yan Keqing disturb the Jianghu while standing in the court?Chen Ke did not answer Chen Mao at that time, because all the inferences lacked key connection points.

"It's really hard for Keqing Yan to do it all by himself. What if someone helps him?"

"My lord is saying goodbye tonight?"

Chen Ke shook his head, "I can't tell." With the financial resources of the Blue and White Society, the demon sect colluding with other races, and layers of rotten officials, it is not impossible for such a favorable time, place, and harmony to stand in court and disrupt the world.

It's just that Yan Keqing set up such a big situation, what is the purpose?

Xu Qingfeng also had such doubts. From the perspective of time, this bureau has lasted for several years, and from the perspective of breadth, from the rivers and lakes to the temple, it is unfathomable.

As the prime minister, Yan Keqing even held the real power of the Ministry of Accounting. It is hard to say that the previous corruption of the Ministry of Accounting had nothing to do with him.

"If this is a trick of thieves calling for a thief, Yan Keqing is the most greedy person." Xu Qingfeng slowly sorted out his thoughts, "The Xizhou case should finally point to... Yan Keqing."

"You might as well rely on Yan Keqing for all the clues." Chen Ke followed Xu Qingfeng's train of thought and said.

Liuzhi County in Linjiang Town, Wushan Temple in Chuzhou were attacked by the Demon Sect, the Blue Flower Society in Zhuozhou, and Shangfeng Town and Mount Dami were close at hand. Looking for Xu Qingfeng, looking for the stone of life and death.If all these clues are connected with Yan Keqing...

"Yan Keqing, are you looking for the stone of life and death?" Chen Ke thought of the treasury inventory in Yan Keqing's hand, like a catalogue.

Xu Qingfeng thought that it was not advisable for Chen Ke to forcibly put the clues together, and retorted: "How did Keqing Yan know the existence of the Stone of Life and Death?"

"What you said - Keqing Yan comes from an ancient clan in southern Xinjiang."

Xu Qingfeng shook his head hastily. His original words were not like that. He always believed that Chen Ke's deduction was not rigorous.

However, Chen Ke changed the subject: "Xu's house was ransacked and beheaded. Haven't you ever suspected Yan Keqing?"

Xu Qingfeng was taken aback, he really didn't doubt it.
