After being together for ten years, Rong Fei would not hide anything from Ji Rouer except for the two matters of soul rebirth and disaster star identity.
Of course, with Ji Rouer's intelligence and understanding of Rong Fei, she couldn't hide it from each other.
Although Ji Rou'er felt incomprehensible and a little confused about Rong Fei's keenness to investigate the so-called truth about the Didunzhou disaster, but since Rong Fei didn't take the initiative to mention it, Ji Rou'er never asked.
As long as his life is not endangered, no matter what Rong Fei wants to do, Ji Rouer will not interfere and will only silently support him from behind.
However, Rong Feidi's behavior tonight was so abnormal that it gave Ji Rou'er a sense of fear.
Therefore, Ji Rouer took the initiative to ask.
Ji Rouer knew that as long as she asked, Rong Fei would definitely answer. Even if it is the secret that Rong Fei hides deep in his heart.
"I'm currently investigating a missing person case in Kyoto. There may be a lot of forces involved behind this case, even court officials and the military. The reason why I can run rampant in Kyoto is because Because of the emperor's attitude, and secondly, because I have been very careful to control the situation.
Fan Li and Chang Huaien, first of all, they took the initiative to provoke Ji Xian Si, who gave me the reason to take action. Secondly, everything I did was only aimed at these two people and did not touch the interests of their forces. Therefore, neither the civil servants nor my relatives gave me any trouble.
This is not the case with missing persons cases. Thousands of people disappear mysteriously every year. There is no one alive or dead in Kyoto. They must have been smuggled out of the city. Just letting the imperial guards choose to turn a blind eye is not something that ordinary people and forces can do. I even suspect that the Custodes may be involved.
I have a hunch that the truth about the missing persons case may cause shock in the Great Yan court. Therefore, the closer you get to the truth, the more dangerous the situation you face. The assassination just now may be related to this case. "
"That…"
Ji Rou'er looked worried and opened her mouth, but only one word came out.
She wanted to persuade Rong Fei that since she knew that the case was so closely related and so dangerous, she might as well let it go.
But…
Rong Fei smiled, held Ji Rouer tightly, the scars disappeared, his hands were smooth and smooth again, and said with a smile.
"I know your worries. Brother Yu knew that I warned me when I was investigating the Dunzhou disaster that it is best not to know too much before you have enough ability to protect yourself. From then on, I began to doubt, The disaster in Dunzhou should be related to the spiritual world. I learned some more things from Miss Yunxiang tonight, and I became more and more certain.
The world of cultivation is headed by the Four Holy Lands. There are countless great monks in the two realms of heaven and earth, and there are even super-level venerables who can be called land gods. If I want to stroke their tiger beards, my current little ability is still too far behind. Even though he is as strong as Brother Yu, he can only stay in Kyoto. Every time he leaves the capital, he must find a way to hide his whereabouts to avoid being discovered and ambushed by the people of the Four Holy Lands.
I practiced the God-catching Technique through visualization. I couldn't practice it by meditating and concentrating the spirit energy into my body. I could only improve my cultivation by handling cases and absorbing the energy of Xingming. Originally I thought this was a shortcut, but during this period of time hundreds of cases were handled, and I could only barely reach the peak of the eighth level. Although the thirteen detectives of the Ji Xian Division have also lost some of their Xing Ming spirit, the bulk of them are still here with me. Every breakthrough at this level requires a quantitative change in the body's spiritual power to trigger a qualitative change. If you want to break through to the seventh level, you may have to handle hundreds of more cases.
It is already so difficult to reach the seventh level of cultivation. When the seventh level is promoted to the sixth level, it will be a huge realm. The difficulty can be imagined.
Since the Ascension of the Catcher God, Ji Xian Si has fallen into a fourth-level curse. Brother Yu said that meditation might be the only way to break this curse, but after all, it was just his guess. To break through to a great realm, in addition to many requirements in terms of cultivation and understanding, the younger the better. After all, the body is a container for cultivation. The stronger the container, the higher the error tolerance. Even if the breakthrough fails, the chance of saving one's life and starting over is greater.
So I have to hurry up. Based on the clues currently available, it is conservatively estimated that the number of people involved in the missing persons case will not be less than 20,000 to 30,000, and may even be more. If this case can be clarified, the punishment gained will be immeasurable.
It can definitely help me break through to a big realm.
In addition, Sister Rou, you know that what I hate most in my life is human trafficking. Now that I have encountered it, there is no reason to stand by and watch. Those scum must be captured and the punishments must be clarified to serve as a warning to others. "
"So you take advantage of tonight's opportunity at the Jinfeng Xiaoyu Tower to reveal your true identity to solve the murder case, recite thirty-six poems, enhance your reputation, and increase the weight of your protection, so as to deter the future. There are enemies that may appear, right?”
Ji Rouer asked after frowning and thinking for a moment.
"That's right."
Rong Fei nodded.
"Now it seems that I have two identities to protect me: the arrester of the Immortal Division and the royal family, but in fact they are all false. If the final missing person case really involves the court forces and the military, and then there will be trouble, I will That cheap cousin doesn't care about laws, justice and family ties. His first priority is the stability of the government.
The title of being the best arrester in the world and the emperor's cousin is not a matter of imperial edict. Due to the relationship between Brother Yu and Concubine Xian, saving his life is not a big problem, but in this life he can only be trapped in the cage of Kyoto City. No matter how hard it is to improve one's cultivation, the investigation into the truth about Dunzhou Mansion will be in vain.
So I must try my best to add more things to myself that can protect me. Although fame and fame are intangible and intangible, they can make some people be wary of others and make them more scrupulous. "
The next morning, Rong Fei, who finally had a good night's sleep, had just finished breakfast and was about to go to the yard to do a set of Tai Chi when he saw Wei Shun, the eunuch chief of the East Palace, coming in a hurry with two young chamberlains.
"Hey, I heard someone said last night that you met an assassin, Rong Quan. It scared the Zajia family so much that they couldn't sleep all night. Let the Zajia family see where they were injured."
As soon as they met, Wei Shun was yelling at him, telling Rong Fei to take off his clothes and let him check.
Rong Fei quickly sat him down on the stone pier, narrated the entire process of last night's assassination, and simulated on the spot how to take out the metal ball stolen from Taoist Qingyang from the storage jade ring at the critical moment to block it. The assassin's dagger, Wei Shun finally gave up with confidence.
"Since nothing happens, let's go into the palace with the Za family. Concubine Xian is still waiting to confirm your safety with her own eyes."
Wei Shun picked up Rong Fei and dragged him out of the Xuanwu Hutong courtyard without any explanation and went straight to the Nuanfeng Pavilion of the palace.
In the Nuanfeng Pavilion, in addition to Concubine Xian, Queen Tang You'er, Princess Yinguang Zhu Yueyao, Prince Zhu Yun and King Qi Zhu Yan were also there.
Although they had just had dinner together the day before yesterday, their identities at that time were completely different from now.
After the meeting, there was another round of inquiries and concerns as usual.
Rong Fei could only tell vividly what happened last night again.
"What about the assassin? Did you let her escape? Rong Fei, aren't you the best catcher in the world? How come you can't even catch an assassin?"
Zhu Yun asked in a sweet voice, but was slapped on the head by Queen Tang Youer and said in anger.
"It's not polite to call me uncle."
Zhu Yun had no choice but to rub his little head while reluctantly calling him uncle.
"Don't worry, you can run away for a while, but you can't run away for a lifetime. The assassin can't escape from my grasp."
Rong Fei smiled ambiguously.
"Rong Fei, come sit here. You were a guest the day before yesterday, so you had to worry about etiquette. Today you can finally take a good look at my good nephew."
Concubine Xian waved to Rongfei with a loving face.
Rong Fei felt a little awkward, but he still went and sat down opposite Concubine Xian.
"Resembling! Really similar! The more I look at it, the more similar it becomes. No wonder when I saw you that day, I felt as if I had seen you somewhere before. Hahaha, although you looked like a ball of clay at that time, your exposed eyebrows and eyes were almost the same as those of my sister. It’s exactly the same.”
Now that it was confirmed that Rong Fei was her nephew, Concubine Xian no longer had any scruples. She grabbed Rong Fei's hand and stared at Rong Fei's face.
When she mentioned her sister who had not been heard from for many years and had no idea whether she was alive or dead, Concubine Xian couldn't help but feel a touch of sadness in her eyes.
"Uncle Rongfei, he is drunk and picky
The lamp looks at the sword, and the dream reminds me of the trumpet blowing camp. Is this poem really composed by you? "
The topic of Concubine Xian naturally did not arouse the interest of Zhu Yun and Zhu Yan. After listening for a while, they finally couldn't help it. Taking advantage of Concubine Xian's words, they got close to Rong Fei. He asked curiously.
"no."
Rong Fei shook his head without hesitation.
"Who did that?"
Zhu Yun asked reluctantly.
"Xin Qiji."
"Who is Xin Qiji?"
"He is a god."
"You are lying. Immortals can only fight, but cannot write poetry. Also, when is the fourth year of Qingli? Who is Teng Zijing? Where is Baling County? Where is Bianzhou? Where is Hangzhou?..."
A series of questions came from Zhu Yun's mouth, which made Rong Fei feel a little dizzy.
Seeing that Concubine Xian and Queen Tang Youer and Zhu Yueyao were waiting expectantly for her answer, Rong Fei couldn't be fooled by the rhetoric of a thousand years ago and a thousand years later.
"Um...do you still remember the Romance of the Three Kingdoms I talked about last time?"
Rong Fei asked after thinking for a moment.
"Of course I remember, the three heroes fought against Lu Bu, shot halberds at the gate, cut off their beards and discarded their robes..."
Zhu Yun has a good memory and reported several classic scenes from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that he had heard.
"The questions you just asked are actually from another story that happened in the Song Dynasty."
Facing the loving Concubine Xian, Rong Fei actually felt a little guilty. Although this relative was identified by Concubine Xian, Rong Fei's own family knew about his family affairs and knew clearly that he could never be Concubine Xian's nephew.
But now that things have come to this, it’s hard to deny it anymore.
Rather than sitting on pins and needles facing Concubine Xian, it would be better to change the subject and resolve the embarrassment.
"Speaking of the Chenqiao Mutiny, Zhao Kuangyin wore a yellow robe and became emperor, thus establishing the Northern Song Dynasty... Jin soldiers conquered Bianliang City, and the Northern Song Dynasty court fled to Hangzhou to establish a new capital, which became the Southern Song Dynasty..." Chinese website
Rong Fei's plan succeeded. Concubine Xian, Tang You'er and others were all attracted by the story he told. They spent the whole morning like this and had lunch before letting Rong Fei leave.
As soon as Rong Fei left the palace, a chamberlain wrote down everything that happened in the Nuanfeng Pavilion and presented it to Emperor Yan Zhu Sheng's case.
