After the Fairy Disappeared - Chapter 554
Chapter 554 on the table
The further you go to the main city, the busier the roads will be.
Teahouses, restaurants, restaurants, foot shops, bathhouses, theaters, red pavilions, government offices, people’s livelihood and public needs, everything is available.
He Lingchuan even saw a huge restaurant on the side of the road, with five floors up and down, each with several thousand square meters, brightly lit and noisy hostesses.
But it is not the largest and most splendid building, the temple is.
Just behind the main street, where every inch of land is expensive, He Lingchuan can always see the roofs of various temples, big and small. The names enshrined in the temple are also different.
Anyway, those who can set up a temple in Lingxu City are not ordinary gods.
According to Fu Shanyue, the rich and powerful especially like to donate to build or renovate temples. Otherwise, it would be good to add a temple roof. If Lingxu City does not allow the use of gold roofs, maybe there will be golden lights everywhere. Telling what the nobles have done is not only to gain face, but also to ask the gods to continue to bless them.
“efficient?”
As soon as He Lingchuan asked the question, he felt stupid.
Fu Shanyue laughed: “Gods don’t speak, sincerity makes spirit!”
When it gets dark, we face a problem of accommodation.
If officials from various places and feudal kingdoms come to Lingxu City to wait for orders or do business, they usually have to live in posthouses so that they can be summoned from above.
Fu Shanyue entered the capital on his own this time, and he is free to choose where to live. But he still chose to stay in the post house temporarily, so as not to find anyone when the superior wanted to summon him.
With just such a detail, He Lingchuan knew that this person was thick on the outside and fine on the inside.
Or maybe there are too many big names in Lingxu City, and even Fu Shanyue dare not act recklessly here.
Although it is a post house, domestic and foreign envoys and officials from other places live here when they come to the city, so the conditions are quite good, the environment is quiet, the utensils are exquisite, and the smiles of the slaves are sincere and natural.
Of course, there are three levels of post houses. When officials from other small countries came to Lingxu City, they would usually only be arranged to go to second or third class posts, and no one dared to object.
Prince Chiyan naturally wanted to live in the highest level, and He Lingchuan followed suit.
If the inns that He Lingchuan lived in before were all small guest houses, where the front desk clerks often disappeared for no reason, then the first-class inns in Lingxu City are at the level of five-star hotels.
His subordinates were busy making arrangements, and Fu Shanyue was going to drag He Lingchuan to drink and wash away the dust, but the latter refused:
“I have something to do.”
Talking nonsense, Fu Shanyue stared: “It’s your first time in Lingxu City, what can happen!”
“Visit relatives and friends.” He Lingchuan patted him on the shoulder, “To be honest, I’ll meet you for a drink tomorrow.”
“All right, let’s go.”
He Lingchuan thought for a while, went back to his guest room first, released the eyeball spider on the beam, then quietly left from the back door of the post house, boarded a deer cart, and rushed to the next destination.
Less than two hours after he left, the guard came in and announced:
“Your Highness, the Heavenly Palace envoy has come to deliver the order!”
“Now?” Now that the night is dark, Dijun is so anxious?
Fu Shanyue saw the envoy, and it turned out that the Zhaixing Tower actually announced that he had an audience overnight.
His decision to stay in the post house was indeed correct. After Fu Shan adjusted his clothes, he went with the envoy.
The other party didn’t mention He Lingchuan at all.
Young Master He is considered a key figure in Baisha, but he is nothing here. It is enough for Bai Ziqi and Fu Shanyue to express their feelings in person, and He Lingchuan, as an insignificant outsider, is not even qualified to be summoned by the emperor.
Bai Ziqi brought him to Lingxu City just to be prepared, in case some master wanted to know more about the situation but couldn’t find the person handling the case of Prince Chiyan.
Of course He Lingchuan knew, and he also had other intentions.
¥¥¥¥¥¥
Tiangong, Zhaixing Tower.
Bai Ziqi knelt down and recounted his investigation process in Baishazhen in detail. This was not only for the demon emperor, but also for the envoy Du Yun, and also for the Holy Lord Lingxu.
He handled it meticulously. All the physical evidence, witnesses, and criminals involved in the case were brought back to Lingxu City, including the remains of Fu Songhua, Wu Kai, and Cheng Yu.
The demon emperor could not help but yawned after listening for half an hour: “You mean, Cen Boqing pleaded guilty?”
“I admitted it, but Mrs. Cen brought witnesses to prove that he is only an accomplice. The real culprit behind the scenes is someone else.”
Yaodi asked again: “It’s so difficult for you to make Wu Kai open his mouth, why is it so easy for Yao Xingning to catch this actor who is connecting with him?”
Bai Ziqi shook his head: “Madam Cen said she was lucky.”
“I’m afraid someone secretly helped her.” The demon emperor lazily said, “You don’t need to ask her, she is Ma Daha, I probably don’t even know. Can you continue to investigate this case?”
Bai Ziqi hesitated slightly:
“I’m afraid it involves a lot.”
“You investigate first, the results will not be announced yet.” The demon emperor said slowly, “Da Si Nong has been crying to me for several days, saying that his family has no idea what his son-in-law has done; Zhongsun’s family has been complaining all the time. , to track down the whereabouts of Zhongsun Mou, saying that if you are alive, you must see the person and if you die, you must see the corpse.”
Bai Ziqi said: “They are also involved in the elixir drug case.”
“Oh, the Qingfu Temple and the people inside were burnt down, and Wu Kai was already dead. There were no physical witnesses, so the old man Zhongsun boldly came out and denied it, saying that he had never taken the elixir of youth, and that his grandson was there. It is impossible for Bai Shazhen to cover up for Cen Boqing to give false testimony, all of them were framed by Cen Boqing. This cunning old bastard… Well, you are investigating the case in Baisha, have you found any direct evidence that Zhong Sunmou gave false testimony for Cen Boqing?”
Bai Ziqi thought about it seriously, and then shook his head: “This case is progressing slowly in Baisha, and it was almost impossible to investigate, because there is no evidence directly involved in the case of Zhong Sunmou and Cen Boqing. Wu Kai is very careful in his work. In the case of the messenger’s disappearance, the false confession he provided It was also Fu Songhua who wrote and stamped it himself, and even if he was investigated afterwards, Zhong Sunmou was just a crime of credulity, negligence, and ineffective handling of the case.”
So the charge of Zhongsun’s family buying elixir privately is only suspended, but Zhongsunmou’s disappearance made his family a real sufferer.
“I expected it to be like this.” The demon emperor snorted, “The Zhongsun family still wants to trouble the Cen family. Tell me, should you?”
“If Mai Xuewen robbed and killed Zhong Sunmou on his own initiative, not at the behest of Cen Boqing, then…”
“Mai Xuewen is still at large, and you haven’t even touched his shadow. It seems that he won’t come out in a short time.”
Bai Ziqi lowered his head: “This subordinate is incompetent.”
“Okay, regardless of Zhongsun’s family, you continue to pursue the clues provided by Mrs. Cen…”
Before the Demon Emperor finished speaking, a few scarlet letters suddenly appeared on the heavenly book:
Killing chickens to make an example to monkeys, Zhongsun’s crime is not light.
The hall fell silent for a moment.
With just a few words, Zhongsun’s family will be in disaster.
This is the will of the gods.
After a while, the demon emperor said: “Zhongsun has been a veteran of Lingxu for more than a hundred years.”
This was an intercession, but Tianshu didn’t respond, obviously the **** didn’t intend to take it back.
Purchasing elixir without private refining is a big violation of their taboo.
The Demon Emperor coughed again: “If you want to do it, you have to do it according to the rules, and only do it if you have evidence! If Bai Ziqi continues to investigate, both the buyer and the seller of the elixir will not be able to escape. Punish Zhongsun’s family… why rush?”
It has been a long time, and there is no new instruction from the book of heaven, probably by default.
The Demon Emperor immediately changed the subject: “Has there been some progress in Qingfu Temple?”
Every day, there are problems for him. A cockroach appears on the counter, and there may be a nest of cockroaches in the house. It is by no means an exception that Zhong Sunmou bought the elixir for his old man.
Is it the same as killing cockroaches, one case will be severely punished?
How many subjects will be implicated? What if the royal court of Lingxu City is in turmoil?
But in the dictionary of gods and gods beyond the sky, how can there be the words “the law does not punish the public”?
Bai Ziqi didn’t know what the demon emperor was thinking, so he just lowered his head and answered “Yes”.
“As for the abnormal movement of the Dafang pot, what do you think about it?” The demon emperor has just heard the statement, and now he wants to listen to Bai Ziqi’s own opinion.
He glanced at the altar, it was quiet there.
“The aura of the Dafang pot has fluctuated twice before and after. From the perspective of time and space, it is very likely that Chiyan Prince Fu Shanyue and Mai Xuewen have appeared near there.” check.”
“Baoshu King took the lead, and four or five demon kings came forward one after another. Hmph, now is not a good time to move people like Fu Shanyue. At least we have to wait until the elixir case is over, lest all the demon kings think that I am targeting the Chiyan Kingdom.” Demon Emperor Looking at Bai Ziqi, “Be polite to Fu Shanyue.”
“Yes.” Bai Ziqi hesitated.
The demon emperor immediately noticed: “Is there anything wrong with it? Tell me!”
“The special envoy sent by Prince Chiyan to investigate the case, his subordinates also feel that something is wrong with him.”
“Oh? It’s the one who tracked down the messenger case and found out Cen Boqing?” The demon emperor raised his voice slightly, “How do you say it?”
Bai Ziqi didn’t dare to be negligent, and told the truth: “I can’t find any connection, nor any evidence, not even indirect, and my subordinates just… feel uneasy when they see him.”
“Spiritual perception is more important than evidence.” The demon emperor didn’t think there was any problem with this, “Since that’s the case, just summon him for interrogation. It’s such a trivial matter, why do you hesitate?”
“The subordinate understands.”
Baisha is the territory of Prince Chiyan, and it is not good for Bai Ziqi to directly interrogate his subordinates there; but when he returned to Lingxu City, many worries disappeared or simplified.
“It’s not convenient for you to judge Fu Shanyue, but you can judge his subordinates.” The demon emperor chuckled, “Isn’t this just right?”
“Yes.” Bai Ziqi thought for a while and said again, “If he and Prince Chiyan are not the targets we are looking for, can the Holy One induce the Dafang pot to move again?”
There are only three things. If the Dafang Pot makes fluctuations repeatedly, it will be much less difficult for Zhaxinglou to locate it.
The Book of Heaven did not respond, apparently the gods were also pondering. The reasons for the two changes of the Dafang pot are irrelevant, and it is hard to say what incentives can trigger it.
The demon emperor was worried: “What if it sees through it?”
Two lines of words slowly appeared in the book of heaven:
Mi Tian is dead, the Dafang Pot has instincts but no weapon spirit, once opened it cannot be stopped.
“Really? That’s good.”
Du Yun, who hadn’t spoken for a long time, suddenly said: “The Holy One said that the Dafang Pot has undergone many changes in Mi Tian’s hands more than a hundred years ago. Someone saw it swallowing a water spirit, which shows that it is addicted to heaven and earth. Dibao.”
Tianshu has another handwriting:
“The Dafang Pot integrates the laws of the two worlds, and likes to eat the treasures of the two worlds.”
The demon emperor heard it and said: “Okay, isn’t the sale of Dunyuan in Golden Horn starting soon? Go to the warehouse to get a treasure left by the gods and test them.”
