July 25.

King Xu, who was sick, suddenly appeared in court and presented a brocade box in public. In the brocade box was the secret key to unlock the tomb that had been lost for more than two months, causing an uproar.

So far, the stalemate, the dispute over whether to forcibly blow up the accompanying tomb and rebury the deposed prince, has been completely resolved.

Today, Longyan is very happy, and rewards King Xu generously, as well as the six door gods who helped King Xu retrieve the secret order and key.

In addition, it was officially decided to reopen the accompanying mausoleum on the first day of August, offer sacrifices to the deposed prince for seven days, and rebury the imperial mausoleum according to the prince's standard.

The imperial mausoleum is located in the suburbs of Chang'an. At that time, the emperor and all the royal families and nobles will come to the grand ceremony in person.

Restarting the companion mausoleum and transporting the bones to the imperial mausoleum will continue to be in charge of Xu Wang, and the person who sealed the village will be the officiant.

July 27, overcast.

Yan Wujiu returned to Fengzhuang with a large number of people, along with the imperial decree of the emperor and the oral order of King Xu.

The wind is strong, and the Sophora japonica flowers are whirling and falling.

Everyone from the six doors and Fengzhuang knelt down to listen to the decree.

The person who got off the horse was dressed in black and brocade, with a gorgeous and noble face, expressionless, arrogant and indifferent, like the frost and snow in winter.

After reading the imperial decree in a cold voice, the people on the side immediately bowed to receive it with both hands and put it away.

Gu Yuexi, who was kneeling on one knee, raised her head, watching Yan Wujiu who had disappeared for several days and came back, walking past him, her eyes were cold and unwavering, but deep in her eyes, there were frequent dark surges.

What happened in the past few days made Gu Yuexi feel suspicious.

Thinking back to the day of the 22nd, Fengzhuang was suddenly frightened by birds, and the situation suddenly rose.

Not long after, the news came that Xu Wang's people who were left in Fengzhuang fought with Yayuwei's people, and Yayuwei blocked the intersection everywhere to arrest the rebels.

Immediately afterwards, it was reported that the head of the Bai family, Bai Xiaofeng, who was the head of the mansion, was assassinated and seriously injured, and the Bai family suffered many casualties.

Mu Tianhe came to the door in person, and bluntly asked the six doors to help block the intersection and catch the assassin.

At that time, Gu Yuexi hadn't connected the matter with Yan Wujiu.

Until later, a few words shouted from the chaotic crowd.

On one side was "Don't let anyone go out of Fengzhuang, those who disobey the order will be killed", on the other side was "You have been deceived, Yan Wujiu is a traitor, chase him back quickly", and at the same time someone shouted "The person who assassinated Patriarch Bai It is Yan Wujiu."

In the chaos, Gu Yuexi promptly separated two groups of people, and one group blocked the intersection, making sure not to let any suspicious people leave Fengzhuang.Another group of people went after Yan Wujiu who had left Fengzhuang for unknown reasons.

Mu Tianhe took the opportunity to walk up to Gu Yuexi, and quietly told him the news that Yan Wujiu ran away with the secret order and secret key.

Gu Yuexi calmly asked: "Was it Yan Wujiu who attacked Bai Xiaofeng? Did you see it?"

Mu Tianhe, who got Yan Wujiu's order, was silent for a moment: "I don't know. But someone saw Patriarch Bai seriously injured and unconscious, Master Yan hurried away with blood on his hands."

"Where are the secret orders and secret keys? Where did Yan Qing get them?"

"He had a secret conversation with Patriarch Bai before, and the condition was to ask for secret orders and secret keys."

Gu Yue's brows turned cold: "The secret orders and secret keys have always been in Bai Xiaofeng's hands?"

"Yes." Mu Tianhe hesitated, and finally gritted his teeth, "Master Gu, please move, this matter can only be told to you. I can't trust the others from the six doors."

Then, Gu Yuexi saw two old blood books.

One is a letter of repentance left by the deposed prince when he committed suicide that year and could not be delivered to the imperial court, asking the emperor to forgive his orphan.

A letter was left by the woman of the abolished prince before she died, stating the grievances of the abolished prince and explaining the life experience of the emperor's grandson Murong Chenxi.

Mu Tianhe told the secrets hidden in the accompanying tomb, and the fact that they deliberately hid the secret order and key because they were afraid that the secret would be exposed and cause the family to be wiped out.

Because Mu Tianhe dragged Gu Yuexi to tell these important secrets, and failed to come in person, the people of Yayuwei successfully dragged the people from the six sects, causing them to lose Yan Wujiu's trace and had to return.

Fan Lei and Su Jianqing didn't retreat half a step, insisting that the people on Xu Wang's side rebelled, Yan Wujiu was framed, and Fengzhuang must be sealed off, only entering and not exiting.Everything will be discussed after Yan Wujiu meets King Xu when he comes back.

Even Mu Tianhe also said that there are many doubts in it, and he is willing to wait for the six doors to investigate in detail.

Gu Yuexi suddenly got such a secret, and Yan Qing, who was at the center of the incident, was not there, so he simply let the conflict between the Yayu Guard and Xu Wang's men go, and only asked the six gates to call the guards of Fengzhuang Bai's family to block the intersection and news.

At the same time, the two appalling events were sent back to the six gates through top-secret channels.

After finishing these things, Gu Yuexi had time to ask Mu Tianhe for key information.

For example, "Where is Murong Chenxi now?"

Mu Tianhe's face sank like a rock: "I don't know. Patriarch Bai sent people to a safe place before he was seriously injured. No one knows."

Gu Yuexi looked at him quietly, knowing that if the deposed prince could not be rehabilitated, Murong Chenxi would be a hot potato.If you keep it, those who shield him may be condemned.But if they don't treat them kindly, they will harm the royal family by standing by and watching when the matter is rehabilitated.

Mu Tianhe had a lot of worries, and it was understandable for Bai Xiaofeng to hide him.

Gu Yuexi changed the question: "Did you kill that corpse in Yizhuang? Why?"

Mu Tianhe was very calm this time: "It's me. This person stole the secret order and key, and overheard our secret. I can only kill him. After the matter is resolved, I will plead guilty and bring justice to justice."

Gu Yuexi looked at him calmly, indifferent, without any human touch: "Why didn't you tell King Xu about this?"

Mu Tianhe was silent, raised his eyes to look at him, and told Xu Wang's plan and their plan exactly as Yan Wujiu said before he left.

"Does Yan Qing know your plan?"

"he does not know."

But the murderer who assassinated Patriarch Bai probably knew something.

Gu Yuexi received these shocking news one after another, and Yan Wujiu and Mu Tianhe's concealment, naturally decided that Yan Qing was working for Xu Wang.

If Yan Qingdu just wanted secret orders and secret keys to claim credit, then it doesn't matter.But if Yan Qingdu killed Bai Xiaofeng, it is very likely that he knew of Bai Xiaofeng's plan and would go to seek credit for King Xu.

Gu Yuexi immediately decided: "Tear down the mechanism to prevent the bombing of the accompanying tomb."

Mu Tianhe naturally responded immediately.Because, this coincides with Yan Wujiu's order before he left.

As Yan Wujiu said, Gu Yuexi really assisted Mu Tianhe, while investigating the case of Bai Xiaofeng's attack and murder, and blocked the news of Fengzhuang's entry and exit, so as to prevent anyone from spreading the news to Xu Wang.While speeding up the time to dismantle the organs accompanying the mausoleum.

However, Gu Yuexi did not immediately report the matter about King Xu's plan to accompany the mausoleum to kill the emperor.

Without him, there are now two voices in the court, Wang Xiang supports the adult prince, especially Xu Wang, who is virtuous, benevolent, and has both ability and political integrity, is the most vocal.

On the other side is the upstart power of foreign relatives represented by Concubine Yun and the Deputy Prime Minister. With the silent support behind the emperor, they are barely on par with Wang Xiang and the others.

But in the final analysis, those humerus veterans in the court favor Xu Wang.What's more, even if Gu Yuexi doesn't understand political struggles in the court, he also understands that after the fall of the abolished prince, the power in the court will change, and if the deposed prince goes down, who will come up.

In the previous cases of Six Doors, many times they were brought back due to the investigation of King Xu.Gu Yuexi understood how deep the water was.

He didn't report this matter, fearing that if he did so, the six doors would change slightly, but he would instead send the news to King Xu, harming these people.

Now, Yan Wujiu was caught off guard and brought someone back to kill him, and he really sent the secret order and secret key to King Xu.

This time, he not only came back with a new imperial decree, but also brought the emperor's reward for the six gate gods.

Because Xu Wang is really good at dancing, and he even gave credit to the six sects in front of the emperor, but he didn't say a word about the real hero Yan Qingdu.

Gu Yuexi looked at Yan Wujiu's noble and indifferent eyebrows, thinking that he was unhappy because of it.

In my heart, I didn't feel any contempt because of this person's tricks, but the gains outweighed the losses, but a faint feeling of intolerance.

Although, he didn't know why he couldn't bear it with such an ambitious person, that person probably didn't need his intolerance at all.It will only loathe myself even more and take his credit.

But, after all, Gu Yuexi's mood eased a lot because of Yan Wujiu's return.

Because, after all, Yan Wujiu did not participate in the killing of Bai Xiaofeng, and it seemed that he was not aware of Xu Wang's series of plots.

As soon as Yan Wujiu came back, he took control of the situation.The people he brought, together with the original Crow Feather Guards, took over Fengzhuang forcefully and continued to block the intersection.

At the same time, Yan Wujiu recounted what he had said in front of Xu Wang, telling him that Bai Qiwu betrayed the prince, attacked and killed Bai Xiaofeng and framed him.

Moreover, Yan Wujiu's methods were fierce, pointing out that among the people left in the Fengzhuang village were Bai Qiwu's accomplices, they needed to be strictly investigated.

He handed over these matters to Fan Lei.

After this incident, Fan Lei and Su Jianqing's ability and loyalty have been recognized by Yan Wujiu, and they can entrust a part of their trust.

Then, Yan Wujiu put all his energy on the biggest thing right now.

"The imperial decree requires that the accompanying tomb be opened on the first day of the eighth lunar month, when the auspicious time is chosen. Now here are the secret orders and secret keys, and you can start working. Be careful, and don't make any mistakes."

Opening the tomb is not as simple as inserting the key and turning the mechanism.

The mausoleum has many agencies and has been closed for many years, so it is natural to send someone to clear it out in advance. After everything is ready, the coffin will be shipped out on the auspicious time of August [-]st.

These are the things that Yan Wujiu did during the day in front of everyone.

When night fell, Yan Wujiu immediately met Mu Tianhe in secret.

"You did very well."

"What should we do next? What exactly do you want to do?" Although Mu Tianhe had been faithfully following Yan Wujiu's words, he couldn't understand Yan Wujiu's meaning at all.

In the darkness of night, Yan Wujiu's face was calm and sharp.

He said calmly: "I told King Xu that the two patriarchs committed suicide because they knew a secret in the accompanying tomb. There was uneasiness, fearing that the accompanying tomb would be opened and the secret revealed, and they would be punished. Therefore, they committed suicide. After hearing this, Xu Wang decided to terminate the plan to blow up the accompanying tomb. Xu Wang felt that the woman who abolished the prince had two lives, and the old emperor Knowing that he killed his grandson will make him even more angry."

Mu Tianhe stood there in a daze.

Hearing Yan Wujiu's voice seemed to be a smile but not a smile: "With King Xu's power and means, it is impossible to bring him down just by exposing his intention to blow up the tomb. Since he dares to do this, he has to use the means to get rid of the crime. How about Use his hands to thoroughly prove the identity of the orphan of the abolished prince. You can ask King Xu to personally cancel the bombing of the accompanying tomb, and relieve your crisis of conferring the village. You can also lead the conflict to the case of the abolished prince. Tianhe Patriarch how about?"

Mu Tianhe blinked, and couldn't hide his clear and simple eyes in the middle of the night: "Are all the young masters of your official family so smart? I don't understand, I think as long as Fengzhuang and Chenxi are fine. Brother Bai believes in you, I just trust you. You tell me what to do, and I will do it."

Yan Wujiu smiled and blinked: "That's good. There are many smart people in this world, but few are obedient. It's very good that the Tianhe patriarch is like this."

Mu Tianhe pursed his lips, his expression was slightly unnatural, and he had a firm and frank face: "Then we should demolish the mechanism now, clean up the accompanying tomb, and then transport the coffin out?"

Yan Wujiu shook his head: "You can't open the coffin to move the contents, and you can't let anyone who can't believe it get close to the accompanying tomb. We want King Xu to believe that the coffin contains the bones of the deposed prince's family of three. After that, they will be safely transported to Chang'an Imperial Tomb."

At that time, after the coffin is opened, as long as the old emperor sees the blood book and knows the existence of Murong Chenxi, everything will be easy.

If the old emperor misses the past and has feelings for this emperor and grandson, they can put Murong Chenxi on the bright side.

If it is the exact opposite, it can also go back to the time when all the insiders died, and the whereabouts of the emperor's grandson are unknown, and they are probably dead.

Because of Mu Tianhe's obedient cooperation, Yan Wujiu was very satisfied, so he patiently explained the key to him.

After hearing this, Mu Tianhe understood: "This method is good, but you lied to Xu Wang, what should he do if he blames you?"

Yan Wujiu's eyes were slightly bent, and the innocent and gloomy light that flowed out of his eyes seemed to be a smile but not a smile: "I lied to King Xu? Did I? Obviously I was paraphrasing Bai Qi Wu's words. Me. Ah, no, Baiqi Wu and the six doors communicate with each other, it should be Gu Yuexi who has a better skill and deceived me. I am also a victim, and King Xu can’t blame me if he gets angry. "

Mu Tianhe was at a loss: "Is that so? Will King Xu believe it?"

Yan Wujiu waved his hand casually, Xu Wang certainly wouldn't believe it, but he has a way to make him even if he doesn't believe it, even if he wants to strangle himself with hatred, he can only endure it.

"Okay. The Tianhe patriarch should take good care of the matter of sealing the village. Bai Xiaofeng is not dead, is he?"

Although this man has done a lot to help them, Big Brother Bai was able to breathe a sigh of relief because he had been insisting on stopping the bleeding at that time, but this arrogant look of being bored and indifferent is really easy to attract people's hatred.

Mu Tianhe was a little depressed, but he still said honestly: "Patriarch Bai lost a lot of blood and has been in a coma. Mr. Gu said that although the injury is serious, but because of the timely rescue, it will not endanger his life. Thank you."

Yan Wujiu blinked slowly, raised his chin slightly, and said calmly, "That's good. I'm very interested in the voice of the big voice of the Bai family. Do you know what to do?"

Mu Tianhe was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I'll send you the cheat book in a while."

He had been thinking about how to repay, but this was the first time he encountered such a straightforward person. He scratched his head, always feeling a little empty, as if he hadn't prepared anything: "Mu Family's Kai Shanzhang, do you want it?"

Yan Wujiu reserved his jaw and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Then I would like to thank Patriarch Tianhe for letting go."

Buy one get one free, got two cheat books, Yan Wujiu left in a good mood.

Mu Tianhe repaid his kindness, and he was relieved not to have to face this handsome, expensive, bad-tempered and overly intelligent young master.More importantly, he knew that he was not smart and could not speak. Every time he saw Yan Wujiu, he felt tense. He always felt that this arrogant young master was about to frown and become impatient, which made him feel very sad. Feeling stressed and uncomfortable.

Seeing that this person is in a good mood now, and smiling rarely, he feels that he has not screwed up, so he relaxes and prepares the cheats.

July 28.The cloud is even worse.

Everything is in order, the main road accompanying the mausoleum has been cleared out, the organs have been inspected and closed by the public losers, and the main tomb can be opened almost tomorrow.

In Fengzhuang, because Yan Wujiu came back with the imperial decree and Xu Wang's order this time, the group in Fengzhuang used to be on the same level as Yan Wujiu, and even because of their seniority, they faintly turned to monitor and guard Yan Wujiu's people , was depressed for a while.

Yan Wujiu took over Fengzhuang completely, but they had a quarrel with Yayuwei because of Bai Qiwu's matter, so they are naturally marginalized now.

However, there was still a small group of people in that group, who quietly exchanged a few glances and disappeared into the crowd without a sound.

After all, Fengzhuang is a small town. It is easy to guard all the mountain roads and checkpoints, but it is impossible to stop all the birds in a place full of mountains and forests.

A gray mountain eagle quietly flew away in the forest, and after a long time, it flew back quietly.

The blank note was torn up and swallowed, and a small word "Cui" was faintly seen.

Yan Wujiu casually talks to Xu Wang, suggesting that there may be other forces behind Xu Wang's white lacquer Wu, such as Xu Wang's old rival, Concubine Yun and the Cui family behind her.

But of course Yan Wujiu knew that Bai Qiwu was not as godlike as he said, and he was not from anyone, at most he was from King Xu himself.

However, Yan Wujiu forgot one thing, Xu Wang was so far-sighted, the reason why he believed so deeply was naturally because Yan Wujiu's lies were very consistent with the facts.

A casual lie, unfortunately.

It's a pity that Xu Wang believed it, but Yan Wujiu himself didn't care about it.

Although Bai Qiwu is not a member of the Cui family, but the abolished prince of Fengzhuang accompanies the mausoleum to cause such a big event in Bianjing, and it is even more a big event involving the participation of his greatest political enemy, King Xu. How could it be possible for Concubine Yun and the Cui family behind her? do nothing?

What's more, the patriarch of the Cui family just died, and the murderer stayed in Fengzhuang openly, but they were beaten by a mysterious person, and they were almost picked out of their old nest.

The Cui family, whose forces are changing and changing, is like a poisonous snake in chaos. Even if it can't pounce on it and bite it, it will be so cold that it will stare at its prey.

Yan Wujiu didn't know all this.

The Cui family was too patient, for so long, they hadn't revealed any clues.Moreover, because the Changan Cui family lost Cui Quan, the next generation began to fall into internal strife.

Headed by Concubine Yun's younger brother Cui Liuye Cui Xuan, and the dignitaries in Bianjing and Luoyang who are closer, and Cui Jin who is supported by He Lanlin from a family background, both parties are strong contenders for the next patriarch By.

The bait of power is in the front, and there are powerful enemies fighting on the left and right. Logically speaking, the cold, crazy, domineering Cui family has never had a reputation for deep kinship, so naturally they would not specifically look for Yan Wu at this time. To blame for the bad luck, to avenge the dead Cui Quan.

Therefore, Yan Wujiu only paid attention to the progress of the struggle for the power change of the Cui family in Chang'an every few days, and never took them seriously.

On this day, he also read the news Fan Lei gave him.

At present, although Concubine Yun has not stated her position, she is very close to the Cui family.Cui Jin originally had a great chance of winning, because in the eyes of outsiders, this is the most capable young man in the Cui family.

However, in the case of Cui Quan's murder, Cui Jin determined that the facts of the case were not clear, and the murderer was not Yan Qingdu, who was considered to be blatantly covering up the murderer, and was even maliciously reprimanded that Cui Jin used Yan Qingdu to kill Cui Quan.

This incident caused Cui Jin, who was originally out of tune with the Cui family because of her mother, to receive even less support from the Cui family.

Therefore, the situation began to be unfavorable for Cui Jin.

Yan Wujiu was silent for a moment, and collected the news.

At this time, he saw a mysterious note appearing beside the flower pot on his desk.

Yan Wujiu opened it and saw that it was Feng Jianpo whom he hadn't contacted for a long time, and urgently asked him to meet at the back mountain at dusk.

He rubbed the note off casually and threw it into the brazier.

Yan Wujiu was thoughtful, he knew why Feng Jianpo was looking for him, honestly he didn't want to go at all, but after all, we are a cooperative relationship, Zuo Fenlian is not around, bored and doing nothing, it's okay to go to see him.

It was just a matter of a few words, when going out, Yan Wujiu didn't explain anything to Su Jianqing.

He thought he would be back soon.

The author has something to say: Small Theater:——

A mysterious and fierce bully appeared in the forest, blocking and robbing everyone.

Jiujiu cat squats majestically and domineeringly, holding its chin up reservedly: You guys know what to do, right?

The natives offered small dried fish in a daze: If you make an offering, can, can you pinch the cat's claw?

Fierce and arrogant, the noble chirping cat: ... Huh?

Cowardly native: Can't you?What about the tail?
