Jin Jiuling was testing.
He wanted to know why Song Xuan came here.
As for why he happened to meet Lu Xiaofeng on the road, he didn't believe a word of it.
Anyway, a person like him who is full of conspiracy and calculation does not believe in coincidences at all.
Song Xuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Master Jin, there is no need to praise me too much. I am currently on standby, wandering around and watching the excitement.
You and Brother Lu need to come to handle the case. I mainly want to drop by and see who that powerful embroidery thief is. "
Hearing what he said, although Jin Jiuling didn't completely believe it in his heart, the smile on his face became even stronger.
As long as they are not specifically looking for trouble, everything is fine.
It is said that Song Xuan has a deep foundation in the imperial capital. If he can be involved with him, and he has the backing of the Xuanyiwei family in the imperial capital, it may be possible for him to be promoted to Qianhu.
After the reception banquet, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't sit still and proposed to go to Prince Pingnan's Mansion to investigate the case. It would be best if they could find some clues.
Jin Jiuling naturally had no objection and rushed towards Prince Pingnan's Mansion with Lu Xiaofeng and his two confidants.
Prince Pingnan met with Song Xuan and his party.
Song Xuan just glanced at the prince casually without paying too much attention.
For him who just killed a prince not long ago, let alone the prince, even if King Pingnan didn't have eyesight, he would still dare to kill him.
What really caught Song Xuan's attention was the man standing behind Prince Pingnan.
This man looked to be in his thirties, with a white face and a slight beard, handsome appearance, and was wearing a snow-white robe. He had a cold, aloof, and lonely aura.
"Who is this?"
Jin Jiuling also noticed the person behind Prince Pingnan. The person just standing there gave him an extremely strong sense of oppression.
This person is definitely the strongest person he has seen since his debut.
"Haha, this is the master that I have worshiped recently, the name of Baiyun City Lord Ye Gucheng. I think everyone is familiar with it, right?"
Prince Pingnan was very proud. Since the embroidery robber happened in the palace, he had a strong desire to find a master in the martial arts to become his disciple.
Being able to worship the Sword Saint Ye Gucheng is the most correct choice he has made in his life.
"It turns out it's Sword Master Ye Gucheng in person! Jin Jiuling, I've met Master Ye City!"
Jin Jiuling was very arrogant at heart. Even when facing Song Xuan, he was still concerned about the other party's identity and background.
But facing a master like Ye Gucheng who has been famous for a long time, he really can't be proud at this moment.
Who can be recognized as a swordsman by people in the martial arts world, how can he be a person who has gained a reputation in vain?
At this moment, he felt vaguely uneasy.
First, Aunt Gongsun died inexplicably at the hands of some Xuanmen master.
Afterwards, Lu Xiaofeng brought two brothers and sisters, Song Xuan.
If that was all, he thought he could control the situation, but now, Prince Pingnan actually worshiped Ye Gucheng as his teacher.
what's the situation?
I just want to lay out a plan to completely control the organization of embroidered shoes, but unexpected situations happen one after another?
Lu Xiaofeng and Ye Gucheng were friends, so they didn't need any introduction. After a brief exchange of greetings, Prince Pingnan took Jin Jiuling and Lu Xiaofeng to the palace treasury.
Today, the treasure house is empty. Since the embroidery thief appeared and stole the eighteen dendrobium pearls, the remaining valuables in the treasure house have long been transferred to other places for collection by the palace.
While Lu Xiaofeng walked around the treasure house and observed, he asked the treasure house guard Jiang Chongwei, who was blinded by the embroidery thief.
Jiang Chongwei may have been asked many times, but he spoke fluently. He pointed to an open space and said: "There was a treasure chest here. After I noticed some movement, I saw the embroidery thief sitting on the treasure chest embroidering."
Jiang Chongwei had a look of fear on his face, "The Thirteen Taibao Hengfu I practiced, although it is not an unparalleled hard skill in the world, I have also developed some skills. If a normal sword cuts on my body, I won't even get a white mark." Leave!
However, in the hands of that embroidery thief, I was defeated by him with one move, and with the second move, I was blinded..."
After Lu Xiaofeng listened to the story, she asked, "So, do you have any guesses about the identity of the embroidery thief?"
Jiang Chongwei said in a deep voice: "The opponent is extremely powerful, and he is not an unknown person. If anyone is good at using embroidery needles, Dongfang Bubai, the leader of the Sun Moon God Sect, should be the most famous.
In addition, Aunt Gongsun, who is said to be good at using flying swords, flying needles and other hidden weapons to hurt people, is also suspected..."
Lu Xiaofeng asked the palace guards who survived that day one by one. Outside the treasure house, Song Xuan did not go in, but stood side by side with Ye Gucheng.
Neither of them spoke. Ye Gucheng stood quietly outside looking at the clouds in the sky, while Song Xuan was holding two rice dumplings in his hands and eating them with relish.
After a long time, Song Xuan suddenly spoke.
"Hey, Sword Master~~"
Ye Gucheng came back to his senses and looked at Song, "Is this adult calling me?"
Song Xuan smiled and said, "Besides you, who else can be called the Sword Master?"
Ye Gucheng pondered for a moment and said: "I will never deny it when someone calls me that, but when you say the word "Sword Master" from your mouth, it always feels like you are laughing at me."
"I don't mean it! It's purely your illusion."
Song Xuan smiled and said, "If you don't stay in Yangzhou, why did you come here?"
Ye Gucheng's expression changed slightly, "Did you know that I was in Yangzhou before?"
Song Xuan nodded, "Don't underestimate Xuan Yiwei's intelligence capabilities. Since I want to take action against the major families in Yangzhou, how can I not investigate how many masters there are in the city.
Although you are well hidden, how can you not reveal any clues? "
Ye Gucheng was silent for a moment and said, "Since you knew where I was, why didn't you do anything to me?"
"That's what you said!" Song Xuan said speechlessly: "I'm not a murderer. You didn't come to provoke me, why should I do it?"
Ye Gucheng stared at him suspiciously. Within a few days, tens of thousands of people died. If this wasn't a murderer, then who was?
Song Xuan smiled slightly and handed the rice dumplings in his hand to Ye Gucheng, "The rice dumplings from Woyunlou are the best in the world, try it?"
Ye Gucheng hesitated for a moment. To be honest, he didn't understand what Song Xuan was thinking.
It stands to reason that since he knows that he is in Yangzhou City, he probably also knows that he is planning something shameful.
As a result, the leader of Xuanyi Guard not only had no intention of falling out with him, but also looked very kind. What on earth was he trying to do?
Looking at the rice dumplings handed over by Song Xuan, Ye Gucheng finally took them, paused for a moment, stood at the door of the treasure house, and the two of them just started eating.
It's not that he's not afraid of poison, but he believes that with Song Xuan's amazing swordsmanship, there's no need to use such a dirty trick as poisoning if he wants to deal with him.
A swordsman has the pride of a swordsman.
He believed that Song Xuan, who was also an excellent swordsman, also had his own pride!
