"It sounds like the failure of the operation has little to do with you. However, the Zhou court sent Luo Xing from Nanya to investigate the case. At this time, you actually encouraged Guo Huai to elope. Do you know what the consequences will be?"
In the sea of spiritual consciousness.
Yu Xiuning knelt on the ground, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably. Obviously, she clearly understood the serious consequences that her private behavior of betraying the organization would bring to her.
"Commander, spare your life, my subordinates were confused for a moment, there will be no next time!"
"Hmph, if I hadn't thought of you as being useful, I would have killed you long ago!" Luo Xing snorted coldly, "From today on, you are not allowed to go to Guo Huai again. If it involves exposing him, If you do, you will die without redemption!"
"Yes, I will make a clean break with him!" Yu Xiuning said hurriedly.
"I just came to Luojing. Tell me everything you know, especially about Ye Liuli. Don't hide anything."
"Yes, Lord Commander." Yu Xiuning did not dare to raise her head and remained kneeling on the ground. This place was also a scene deliberately arranged by Luo Xing, making it impossible for him to distinguish the authenticity.
This is a method he learned on his own from the "True Interpretation of Spiritual Dao", and it is perfect for use in dream interrogation.
"This Ye Liuli is the only daughter of the former crown prince of the Zhou Dynasty. She was adopted by Emperor Yongxi into the palace since she was a child. However, she suffered a lot at such a young age and was even sent to the Nanya secret camp. She was probably left to fend for herself. Later, His talent was discovered and he was picked up by the Tianlan Sect. He was accepted as a disciple by the master of Yunlan Peak, Yun Ni. He was promoted to the second level martial arts sect before he was twenty years old. He is the true successor of Tianjiao within the Tianlan Sect. It is said that his martial arts talent is Extremely high, still higher than his master Yun Ni..."
"Yunlan intends to train Ye Liuli to take over her position as the peak leader, so she is given extremely high authority. She can dispatch Yunlan Peak's properties in Luojing and personnel in surrounding prefectures. Emperor Yongxi has always been dissatisfied with her. Don’t worry, everyone is on guard and suppressed. This time the Wolf Lord of Xirong proposes marriage, he may not be secretly pushing it. If Ye Liuli marries Xirong, he will be able to sit back and relax."
sit back and relax?
If Emperor Yongxi really thought so, then he would underestimate Ye Liuli. If he really wants Ye Liuli to marry Xirong, I am afraid that Xirong and Zhou Dynasty will definitely meet one day.
The resentment and hatred in Ye Liuli's heart made it impossible for her to have any good impressions of Emperor Yongxi. Now, if he destroys her future with his own hands, she will definitely take revenge, and the revenge will be extremely cruel.
"Did you copy and forge Ye Liuli's handwritten secret order?"
"Yes, Commander, I have been learning calligraphy since childhood and am good at imitating other people's handwriting. I often see Ye Liuli's handwriting, so it is not difficult to copy it."
"Well, very good. Your skills will be of great use in the future." Luo Xing nodded slightly.
"Thank you, Commander."
"Go back and wait for my instructions..." Luo Xing waved his hand, causing Yu Xiuning's consciousness to fall into coma again.
…
Luo Xing came out of the quiet room and saw Qingyi coming back from outside. She had gone to Yunxiuzhuang to search Yu Xiuning's residence.
"Qingyi, have you found anything?"
"Yes." Qingyi waved her hand, and Xu Chanjuan came forward holding a box and handed it to Luo Xing.
"This was found in a secret room in Yu Xiuning's room. Inside were some of her personal correspondence and banknotes."
Luo Xing opened it and saw that there was nothing wrong with the banknote. Unless it was used for other purposes, it would be difficult to spend the smeared banknote. When the counter accepted the silver, it would be rejected directly.
These letters are a bit interesting. As a spy, you need to strictly manage your personal belongings. Any items or letters that can reveal your identity must be destroyed immediately, unless it is necessary and can be proven. It belongs to your own identity, but if necessary, it needs to be destroyed as soon as possible.
Because once you are exposed and cannot be destroyed in time, everything will be over. Although there are strict regulations, human nature cannot be restrained outside people. If you strictly follow the regulations, then there will not be so many spies exposed in the world. .
There is no perfect lurking, as long as he takes action, he will leave traces.
"Judging from the letters, this man named Zhai Kenan should be the man she had before coming to Luojing. These letters have been preserved for at least ten years. Look at the yellowing of the paper. The problem is, this Zhai Kenan is in Nanchu. We We don't have the ability to find him now, but we can save it for future use," Luo Xing said.
"Xiao Qi, I think these things can help us pry open Yu Xiuning's mouth." Qingyi said, "Since she treasures these things so much, it must be that this person is extremely important to her, otherwise she would not risk it." Such a huge risk was saved.”
"These things alone will not reveal your identity. I have arranged for someone to check her body. I hope to find something."
"Do you suspect that she is a Nanchu inner guard?"
"It is possible, but it may not be found out. The internal guards have planted spies and know that if they leave marks, they will be discovered, so they usually wash away the marks. They have such means and technology, but the marks will still be left. It’s impossible to leave no trace at all,” Luo Xing said.
"If it is the internal guards of Nanchu, then they hope that Dazhou will go to war with Xirong, and thus plan this frame-up action, then this reason is enough." Qingyi said.
"Who disguised himself as Mr. Su to see Si Miaomiao, we can't make a conclusion until we figure this out." Luo Xing shook his head slightly, "I already know who forged His Highness's secret order."
"who?"
"This is Yu Xiuning. She has good calligraphy and can copy, and she can make the fake look like the real thing."
"So awesome!"
"Qingyi, please go to the palace and tell His Highness the situation. I will go to Si Miaomiao to ask some questions. If Yu Xiuning can hide his relationship with Guo Huai so well, there must be someone in Yunxiu Manor to help her. People." Luo Xing said.
"Um."
…
"People who have a good relationship with Yu Xiuning..." Si Miaomiao thought for a moment and said, "Guo Xiaoyun, she is very close to Guo Xiaoyun, and they have a good relationship."
"Is Guo Xiaoyun an embroiderer or a descendant of the Tianlan Sect?"
"The embroidery worker is also a technical inheritor trained by our Tianlan Sect. She serves as the leader of the third group of embroidery workers at Yunxiu Village and is a key training target." Si Miaomiao said.
"Okay, I understand." Luo Xing nodded, and immediately arranged for someone to go to Yunxiuzhuang to bring Guo Xiaoyun back for questioning.
"Chief Secretary, if you think of anyone or anything related to Yu Xiuning, just tell people outside and they will notify me as soon as possible." Luo Xing ordered.
"Okay, Mr. Luo, have you found the mastermind behind the frame-up of my Junior Sister Liuli?" Si Miaomiao asked.
"We only have some clues at the moment." Luo Xing explained, "Don't worry, I will do my best to find evidence for His Highness and clear his name."
"I believe Mr. Luo!"
"Thank you."
…
"Sir, there is an Elder Yunhui outside the door who claims to be Tianlan Sect and is asking for an audience!" Returning to the investigation office's public room, Xu Chanjuan came in to report.
"Oh, invite him to the living room." Luo Xing put down the brush in his hand and ordered, even though the Tianlan Sect had a high status.
But this was Nanya, representing the imperial court. Since he came to pay a visit, he naturally had to follow the rules of the yamen. Moreover, Luo Xing's status was not low, and he did not lower himself to welcome the truth in person.
Not long after, a man in his fifties with a somewhat broad build was introduced into the reception room of the investigation office by Xu Chanjuan.
This looks like he is usually pampered.
"Tianlan Zong Yunhui has met you, sir." This casual comment showed that he usually dealt with the imperial government and officials. He was a well-rounded person. At this time, Tianlan Sect sent such a person here, which was obviously done carefully. Selected.
If someone with a bad temper and a stubborn personality comes here, not only will the problem not be solved, but it will even intensify the conflict. It seems that the Tianlan Sect does not want to make the matter worse, but wants to calm things down.
This is a good thing. The bigger things get, the better it will be for Ye Liuli. Once things are done, there will be no room for change.
"You're welcome, Elder Yunhui, please sit down." Luo Xing greeted politely, "Chanjuan, I'll serve you tea."
"I have heard the legend of Liuli for a long time. You were once an old friend of hers. He is extremely talented and has outstanding abilities. Unless you are born in Nanya and join the Tianlan Sect, you will definitely become a true genius!" Yun Hui sat down, smiled, and said to Luo Xing is a compliment.
"Haha, I am favored by His Highness, but Luo Xing was born in Nanya, how can he forget his roots, so His Highness's kindness can only be accepted with heart." Luo Xing chuckled, this Yun Hui should be an eloquent person.
"Yunhui came here this time under the entrustment of Master Minghui and Master Yunni to understand and deal with a small misunderstanding between the descendant of Bizong Liuli and the fourth prince of Xirong." Yunhui opened his mouth and said.
"There is indeed a slight misunderstanding between His Highness and the Fourth Prince of Xirong, but there is someone behind this misunderstanding who is stirring up trouble. This must be investigated."
"What did Mr. Luo find out?" Yun Hui said in surprise.
"If I were His Highness, how could I order one of my own to carry out the assassination? Once the incident was exposed, wouldn't it affect the reputation of the Tianlan Sect? Your Highness is an upright person, how could he be such a villain? If this is what happened, she could just spend money to ask the ghost market to ask Qixing Pavilion to take action, so why bother putting herself in it?"
"Master Luo is right, but the problem is that the existing evidence cannot prove Liuli's innocence?" Yun Hui asked.
"We need to find evidence, but I also want to know what the Tianlan Sect's attitude is towards His Highness and his pro-Xirong?" Luo Xing asked directly as he unveiled the sign.
"This has nothing to do with this case, Mr. Luo." Yunhui did not expect that Luo Xing would go straight to the core of the problem as soon as he came up.
The reason why Fang Tianfu, Jiang Songping and others did not hesitate to formulate an assassination plan after receiving the secret order was because they obviously saw that this assassination plan could destroy Ye Liuli and Qin Xirong. As for the risk of a war between the two countries, they never considered it.
No matter who rules the secular society, the life and death of ordinary people are not among their considerations. As long as the sect is there, they naturally don't have to worry about their future.
This is the way of thinking of sect disciples.
Of course, they also have selfish motives, that is, they are far more loyal to Yunlan Peak where they are than the Tianlan Sect itself.
"If the Tianlan Sect supports the marriage, it is extremely important to find out the truth. If you don't want the marriage, the truth is not that important." Luo Xing said.
"Why is this?" Yunhui asked in confusion.
"If His Highness is not behind this assassination, then there will be no resistance within Xirong against the marriage. But if it is indeed the case, Elder Yunhui thinks, will the adult princes of the Wolf Lord of Xirong take precautions?" Luo Xing said, "Once His Highness gets married, In the past, the title was certain, and the son must be the crown prince of Xirong, even if he was an infant. Once the title was set, it would be difficult to change it. Even if the king of Xirong died, your Tianlan Sect would give up this person to take over Xirong. opportunity, Liuli Temple will definitely not support it then. I think the Wolf Lord of Xirong must have given Liuli Temple a promise in order to gain Liuli Temple's support. For example, he will not make His Highness the crown prince, or in other words, he will not It will give His Highness the opportunity to have a child.”
After Yun Hui heard this, his eyes showed incredible shock.
If these words were spoken by an important minister or an older wise man, he would never be surprised, but the Master Luo in front of him, who was only in his early twenties, could actually see so clearly and profoundly.
He knew that the Wolf Lord of Xirong did have a secret promise with Liuli Temple, but no one knew the specific content of this promise.
It should be impossible for Luo Xing to know such a confidential matter. He could guess the whole thing so accurately just by guessing, even the content of the promise.
It is almost the same as what the Sect Master and Peak Master said.
What kind of wisdom is this?
No wonder Liuli's personal successor tried his best to ask the sect to bring this person into the sect, but in the end, he couldn't achieve it because of Nanya's iron law.
"So, if the Tianlan Sect wants to take a chance and sacrifice His Highness's future to get a chance to enter Xirong, the case must be investigated clearly. If they don't want His Highness to marry Xirong, the truth of the case does not matter. It is not important." Luo Xing said again.
"Master Luo, Yun Hui has learned a lesson." Yun Hui stood up and bowed deeply.
"Did Elder Yunhui come to Luojing alone?"
"Oh, no, there are a few disciples accompanying him. They are under Yun Hui's command." Yun Hui explained.
"Miss Tong and Aunt Hua of the True Legend of Yaoguang Peak of Guizong live in my home at No. 3 Yongkangfang. Elder Yunhui can go pick them up. They also participated in the assassination. I know they did not do it intentionally. Therefore, the net was wide open and they were not arrested and locked up in Nanya Prison." Luo Xing said.
It is not a problem for Miss Tong and Aunt Hua to live in his own home. He would not want to do this if he had no place to go.
Now that someone from the Tianlan Sect has come, it would be the best thing to pick them up and take care of them.
"Yunhui would like to thank Mr. Luo." Yunhui bowed to express his thanks again.
"Okay, Elder Yunhui, after you settle down, you can send someone to inform you of the address. I can find you at any time." Luo Xing picked up the tea cup and said.
As soon as Yunhui saw it, he knew that he should leave. Today, his goal was achieved, and he got a lot of information, especially some things that neither he nor the senior officials of Tianlan Sect could see. He wanted to go back Get in touch with Zongnei as soon as possible.
