Pawn Crossing the River

As a veteran Qingluan guard, Yun Luo didn't believe it: "Master Yao, you are a lady from a famous family with a noble status. Wouldn't such behavior be considered as insulting the family tradition?"

This directly exposes what many people think.

After all, a man and a woman alone, going out together at night and avoiding the hardships of advocating Yuelu, there are only two possibilities, one possibility is that the two of them are secretly in love, the other possibility is fake.

Yao Pei lowered his eyes: "I don't know how I have insulted the family tradition? Is traveling to the Imperial Capital with others an insult to the family tradition? Which family's rule is this?"

Yun Luo said: "This is a rule that has been established for thousands of years."

Yao Pei said: "That's the rule of the Confucian sect. If we follow the rules of the Confucian sect, you, me, Deputy Hall Master Zhang and Special Envoy Han should all be in the compound of the deep house at this time, and don't leave the front door and don't take two steps. How? Can you show your face?"

Yao Pei paused for a moment: "Or is it that Master Yun suspects that I am protecting Brother Qi? Or is it that Master Yun suspects that Brother Qi and I teamed up to kill Monk Yanxiu? That's why he insinuated that I have disgraced the family tradition."

This was the rebel general's army, and it exposed Yun Luo's thoughts.

Yun Luo was not easy to answer. If he said that Yao Pei was shielding Qi Xuansu, or that the two of them were complicit, and there was no concrete evidence, it would be an excuse. It was just an ordinary person, but Yao Pei could accuse her of a false accusation. , it will be very troublesome anyway.

This is the weight of Yao Pei. She said that when she and Qi Xuansu are together, there is nothing others can do. If it were someone else, he wouldn't know how he would go back and forth asking for details.

From beginning to end, Qi Xuansu said nothing except pretending, because Yao Pei said that the rest would be left to her.

Qi Xuansu thought that his performance just now was a bit excessive and unnatural, and Zhang Yuelu's reaction was wrong. It would be better to leave the table angrily, or snort and stare at him fiercely, which would be more realistic.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Zhang Yuelu.

It happened that Zhang Yuelu was also looking at him.

The two looked at each other.

Qi Xuansu clearly didn't do anything wrong, but he couldn't help but feel guilty.

Fortunately for Zhang Yuelu, she could understand Qi Xuansu's plan with just a little thought. It turned out that this was what he meant by "foolproof", which made her a little funny.

Zhang Yuelu was a little curious, how did Qi Xuansu convince Yao Pei to help? It is impossible to be a classmate in just three months. If it were someone else, it would still be possible, but Yao Pei is practicing the "Tai Shang Forgetting Love Sutra" and will never be an emotional person. As for saying that there is an affair between the two , Zhang Yuelu didn’t believe it even more. Although she is a woman, she is not subjective and emotional and believes in objective facts. The objective fact is that the influence of the "Tai Shang Wang Qing Jing" is so great that even if Yao Pei is the reincarnation of the Eastern Emperor, he cannot avoid it.

If it is said to be peace money, then it should not be. Among the four peers present here, Li Changge and Yao Pei are in the same class. Taiping money is just a number and they never worry about Taiping money. She and Qi Xuansu are in the same class, poor and strapped, and often in embarrassment. If it is reasonable to say that Yao Pei used Taiping money to bribe Qi Xuansu, it is nonsense to say that Qi Xuansu used Taiping money to bribe Yao Pei.

It seems that we have to ask Qi Xuansu.

Li Changge had been observing everyone's expressions with great interest, as if he was just a spectator. Only then did he say, "No one doubts Yao Fuli."

Yun Luo stopped talking.

Yao Pei looked at Li Changge and said, "I have proven Brother Qi's innocence, and this matter should come to an end."

Li Changge said: "Since the Daolu Division has handed over this case to me, there is no reason for me to give up halfway. Even if Brother Qi's suspicion is cleared, the case is not yet closed. We will eventually give the Buddhists an explanation." ”

Qi Xuansu finally said: "What Brother Li Dao said is true. I support the continued investigation."

Yun Luo glanced at Qi Xuansu and felt more and more that Qi Xuansu was a serious suspect, but seeing how confident he looked, it would be difficult to find out anything.

Li Changge smiled slightly at Qi Xuansu, and then said: "When it comes to investigating cases, I am not as good as Deputy Hall Master Zhang. Relying on various clues to deduce is really not my strong point. I prefer to use magic to solve problems, Mr. Yun, have you ever Looking back?"

"No." Yun Luo said, "Because Wutong Garden is inconvenient. They said...the place where the crime occurred was not only lived by Monk Yanxiu, but also by other people. Such a private place, if I rashly looked back and saw something I shouldn't have seen..."

Yun Luo didn't need to finish his words, the others already understood.

It is reasonable for Wutong Garden to have such concerns. The key behind Wutong Garden is the Li family, and even the Qingluan Guards cannot force it. This is one of the reasons why Yun Luo wants to ask Li Changge to take charge of this case.

Li Changge naturally understood and asked, "Who is the owner of Wutong Garden now?"

Yun Luo hesitated for a moment and replied, "It's Li Qingnu."

"It turned out to be her." Li Changge had heard of Li Qingnu's name, "I thought it was Li Tianyue."

Yun Luo explained: "It was indeed Dongzhu Li before, but this year it was replaced by Mr. Li. Dongzhu Li no longer takes care of things and rarely even shows up."

Li Changge nodded and said: "In this case, if the gods come down to earth to ask about the land, please invite the land master."

There is no need for Yun Luo to arrange manpower, Li Changge can go to Wutong Garden with his own personal escort.

Qi Xuansu subconsciously used the "qi-gazing technique" to take a look, and found out that the personal attendant was also a heavenly being.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In the past, he had no intuitive feelings about the Zhang family's lack of support for Zhang Yuelu. After all, no matter how bad Zhang Yuelu was, he was still much better than Qi Xuansu, the orphan raised by Qiniang, and Zhang Yuelu had already endured the most difficult time. It's past.

Comparing it with Li Changge at this time, Qi Xuansu understood Zhang Yuelu's difficulties. When she first arrived in Yujing, she had no heavenly cultivation, no personal followers sent by her family, and no elders to take care of her. She was alone in the Beichen Hall controlled by Taiping Dao. , and then was sent to Jiangnan, where he narrowly escaped death. Although she was transferred to Tiangang Hall in the future, her status in the Zhang family was not very high. It was a person who dared to take advantage of her. Qi Xuansu felt deeply when he followed Zhang Yuelu to Yunjin Mountain. If it weren't for Earth Master and Master Cihang, she would be the abandoned child of the Zhang family.

On the other hand, for Li Changge, everything was arranged properly, with the Imperial Master and Master Qingwei taking care of him. I heard that who dared to act presumptuously in front of Li Changge, the gap was immediately apparent.

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but felt a little grievance for Zhang Yuelu. With the Zhang family's structure, it was no wonder that they couldn't beat the Li family and deserved to be outnumbered by the Li family.

Of course, Qi Xuansu is also suspected of standing up and talking without pain. After all, he is on Zhang Yuelu's side. If he is the eldest sect of the Zhang family and ends up being deprived of the position of Heavenly Master by a junior sect disciple, then he probably will not be willing to accept it. It's just that Qi Xuansu believes in one rule: speak wherever you sit, and don't betray your position. This means that since he belongs to Zhang Yuelu, he should not be sympathetic to the Zhang family.

Not long after, the Li family member arrived with Li Qingnu.

After all, both of them are from the Li family, so there is no need to argue. She just said it and she came.

Li Qingnu did not wear a veil or hat this time and showed his true appearance. People can't help but marvel, she is indeed the most beautiful woman in the Imperial Capital.

Although Zhang Gaogong is superior in terms of aura, and his divine light makes people dare not look directly at him, but purely in terms of appearance, the Li family is even better. It is strange to say that Zhang Yuelu was clearly from the south of the Yangtze River, but his behavior was more like a northerner, while Li Qingnu became famous in the north, but his appearance has the flavor of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered that Li Qingnu seemed to be from the same hometown as Zhang Yuelu, because the first time he met Li Qingnu was in Shangqing Mansion in Wuzhou. At that time, Li Qingnu's banner was to return to his hometown to visit relatives.

Li Qingnu looked around and glanced at Qi Xuansu without stopping at all, as if he didn't know Qi Xuansu at all. He only paused briefly on Zhang Yuelu, and finally bowed respectfully to Li Changge, the little ancestor. Who knows that she is just a "life" person? .

Li Changge motioned for Li Qingnu to add a chair, which was next to Qi Xuansu.

Li Qingnu had no choice but to sit in the interrogation position with Qi Xuansu, facing Li Changge. If she hadn't been in full view of everyone, she would have given Qi Xuansu a look. If it hadn't been for his trouble, she wouldn't have sat here.

However, Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered a joke Yao Pei said when he was in Wanxiang Taoist Palace. It seemed that the three families were getting together or something, and he felt guilty for no reason. He looked at his nose and his heart.

But Qi Xuansu then thought about it and asked, what was he guilty of? He behaves upright, has never done anything illegal, and has never had any evil thoughts. All his dealings are for business, so how can he feel guilty? It seems it's all Yao Pei's fault.

After Li Qingnu sat down, Li Changge asked calmly: "I want to trace back the earth energy. Is there any difficulty?"

Li Qingnu shook his head and said: "There is no difficulty."

"Very good." Li Changge ordered, "Immediately arrange for the Earth Qi traceback. In addition, check the body of Monk Yanxiu to trace the source of the spell."

These are commonly used methods. When Zhang Yuelu investigated the cause of Feng Bo's death, he also used similar methods. However, when Master Wan took action, the corpse's energy was billowing, which disturbed the earth's energy to a certain extent. Qi Xuansu did not have such a level of cultivation for the time being, unless he intentionally Destroy the atmosphere of the earth.

Naturally, Li Changge does not need to do this kind of thing himself, others can do it. Even scenes of earth energy tracing and spell tracing through corpses can be imprinted on the "photographic stone".

Everyone sat here and waited. For Taoist disciples, meditation is a basic skill, and it is not difficult to sit silently for a whole day.

During this interval, Li Changge asked Li Qingnu again: "Please tell me the details you know carefully."

"Yes." Li Qingnu didn't take Qingluan Guard's questions seriously at all. Qingluan Guards couldn't help her, but they didn't dare to make any mistakes in front of Li Changge and were very respectful, "That courtyard is actually not Yan's house." It was given to Monk Xiu by Wen Weng. Later, Wen Weng hosted a banquet for Monk Yanxiu here, so he simply transferred the courtyard to Monk Yanxiu. "

Li Changge asked: "Deputy Hall Master Zhang, was there also a man named Wen Weng in Gao Mingyin's case?"

Zhang Yuelu said: "What Deputy Hall Master Li said is true. There is indeed a man named Wen Weng. He is the chief historian of the Liao Palace."

Li Changge smiled: "This is interesting."
