Looking at the paper on the side, it is also written in Qingping tune, but it is not finished yet, only half of it.
The handwriting on the books and paper are the same, they should all be written by Yun Xiang.
Rong Fei closed the book and put it back on the desk, stretched out a finger to touch the last word on the paper, and then touched the tip of the brush and the ink in the inkstone.
"How long ago was the last time you saw your lady?"
Rong Fei asked the maid.
"Um...an hour ago."
Rong Fei nodded, activated his magical power to see through the wall, then turned around and walked out of the room into the courtyard, took the lantern from the concierge and walked into a small bamboo forest in the southwest corner of the courtyard.
"Ah~ there seems to be someone there!"
The maid followed Rong Fei into the bamboo forest and exclaimed as soon as she walked in.
Under the faint light from the lantern, a figure can be seen lying motionless deep in the bamboo forest.
Rong Fei walked closer and turned the man over.
Without testing his breath, he knew that this man was just knocked unconscious and his life was not in danger.
"Tou Rong, who is this?"
The maid asked timidly while hiding behind Rong Fei.
"They should be the guards sent by Chang Yanei to protect your young lady. There, there, there are three more who have been knocked unconscious. Carry them into the room, otherwise they will catch a cold and get sick." Z.br>
Rong Fei reminded him kindly.
Naturally, such a large house cannot only be occupied by three people: Yunxiang, the maid, and the concierge, as well as a few servants responsible for cleaning. At this time, hearing the noise here, they all got dressed and gathered together.
"Then my lady..."
the maid asked with tears in her eyes.
"Don't worry, your lady will be fine as long as I'm here. After settling these four people, remember to send someone to notify Chang Huaien."
After explaining this, Rong Fei left the house and headed towards Xuanwu Hutong.
At the same time, the Imperial Guards responsible for guarding the west gate of Kyoto City lined up in two rows, pointing their spears diagonally into the city gate. On the city wall, there are countless crossbowmen vibrating their bows, and with just one command from the commander, a rain of arrows will pour out, turning the target into a hedgehog.
"The visitor should stop, dismount, and state his intention. Otherwise, don't blame the sword and arrow for having no eyes."
The commander of the Forbidden Army held the hilt of the sword in his hand, stepped out of the crowd, and shouted sharply at the hundreds of knights who were rushing towards them.
"Hey~"
Under the raised hands of the two leading knights, the cavalry stopped more than twenty steps away from the city gate. The two leading knights each threw a token to the commander of the imperial army.
"Special Agent Gu Fengxiao from the Jixian Division, under the orders of the arresting leader Rongfei, went to investigate the case outside the city. Please give me permission, Commander."
"Feng Li, the stall owner of the Dong Ji Xian Factory, was ordered to assist the Ji Xian Division in handling the case."
It turned out that two of the most popular yamen in Kyoto in recent times were jointly handling the case. The commander of the imperial army breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time became more and more curious.
But out of curiosity, there has been a lot of noise in Kyoto recently, so it’s better not to meddle in other people’s business.
After verifying that the token was genuine, the commander of the Imperial Guard waved his hand and let him go.
Eight detectives from the Ji Xian Division and hundreds of famous stall chiefs from the Dong Ji Shi Factory, holding torches in their hands, headed towards a hidden village eighty miles outside the city with murderous intent.
Although Zheng Ziqiu did not reveal much information about Shadow Kill before committing suicide by taking poison, he did give Rong Fei the account book of human trafficking over the years, and detailed the location of the buyers outside the city.
Back in the small courtyard of Xuanwu Hutong, Ji Rouer, Murong Qiushui and Rong Lan were still monitoring the unusual movements in Kyoto through the Five Jue Formation.
Rong Fei first expressed condolences to the three women for their hard work, and then asked about Yun Xiang's whereabouts.
"That Yunxiang from Jinfeng Xiaoyu Building?"
Hearing Yunxiang's name, the tiredness on Ji Rouer's face was immediately wiped away, and she tilted her head and stared at Rong Fei dangerously.
Rong Fei did not do anything wrong, so he was naturally not afraid of the threat from Ji Rouer's eyes and explained a few words in a low voice.
"Huh? How could... be like this?"
Ji Rouer immediately showed an incredulous look, causing Murong Qiu Shui and Rong Lan to come over curiously.
"I will explain in detail later, but first help me find the person."
"oh."
Ji Rouer responded, and then controlled the Five Jue Formation to search for traces of Yunxiang.
The Five Jue Formation is mainly used to monitor the monks in Kyoto City, but Yunxiang is an ordinary person with no cultivation level, so it is more troublesome to find him.
The three women spent nearly an hour, their eyes almost blurred, before they finally found a woman who looked like Yun Xiang in a slum area near the city wall.
This was due to the fact that it was late at night, and the people living in the slums had fallen asleep after a hard day's work, but this woman, who was wearing a floral scarf and covering her face, chose to sneak into the dark alleys.
Rong Fei memorized the general area so that the three women could say goodbye and rush towards the target area.
Yunxiang would actually be related to Yingsha, which surprised Rong Fei.
Avoiding several areas that were still crowded even late at night, Rong Fei poured spiritual power into his legs, used his wind-breathing power, and ran like flying on the long street.
Soon he came to the area where the suspected Yunxiang woman's traces were previously found, and used his full body's magical power to see through walls to determine the specific location.
In a small courtyard that seemed to be regularly taken care of, Yunxiang had just taken a breath and calmed down when she heard a knock on the courtyard door.
"Miss Yunxiang is here."
Recognizing Rong Fei's voice, Yunxiang smiled sadly.
After all, I still can't hide from him.
Opening the far door, Yunxiang looked at Rong Fei, who was standing outside the door, and bowed slightly.
"I've seen Mr. Rong arresting the head, please come in."
Rong Fei nodded and walked into the yard. When he glanced around, he saw that there were no stone benches or tables in the courtyard. There were only a few shabby bamboo chairs placed against the wall, so he picked out two that were relatively familiar and placed them in the middle of the courtyard. After sitting down, he pointed to the bamboo chair opposite and said to Yun Xiang.
"Sit down, I have something to ask you."
Yunxiang sat down opposite her as she was told, her eyes avoiding Rong Fei's glaring gaze and staring at her knees.
"That day in the Golden Wind and Drizzle Tower, how much of what you said was true? How much of it was false?"
Rong Fei asked with a worried expression.
Since his soul was reborn in this world, Rong Fei has always been cautious when dealing with others. It is because of this caution that Rong Fei is suspicious and suspicious of anyone except Ji Rouer, his master Liu Yong, and his old doctor Qi Xiutai. An attitude of distrust.
And because of a conversation in the Jinfeng Xiaoyu Building a few days ago, Yunxiang, who was also a survivor of the Dunzhou disaster, became the fourth person accepted and trusted by Rongfei.
Although it is not comparable to Ji Rouer and the other three, it is still much better than the others.
But Yunxiang deceived Rong Fei, which made Rong Fei feel very uncomfortable and even a little angry.
"It's all true, not a single lie."
Yunxiang replied without raising her head.
"It's just that... I haven't said everything yet, I'm just hiding something."
Yunxiang has an innate magic power in her body, and what she says will always make people believe it unconsciously.
"Lift your head and look into my eyes."
Rong Fei ordered.
Yunxiang sighed and Yiyan raised her head to look at Rong Fei.
Rong Fei stared at Yun Xiang's eyes for a long time and found that he could no longer distinguish whether Yun Xiang was telling the truth or a lie based on experience and reasoning.
But this is very important to Rong Fei.
When he captured Xu Silang, the murderer of the Chuntao Lane murder case, Rong Fei discovered that if he used the magical power of seeing through walls on a person alone, he could hear that person's voice.
After discovering the magical power of seeing through walls, Rong Fei never used it again.
Just because of this function of magical power, Rong Fei felt fear.
After much thought, Rong Fei finally gave up on using his magical power to see through walls.
Just believe it finally
Rue once!
"Are you the one Shadow killed?"
Rong Fei asked.
A wry smile appeared on Yunxiang's lips, she nodded and asked.
"How did you guess that?"
"Zheng Ziqiu told me."
Rong Fei replied.
"impossible."
Yunxiang shook her head.
"Twelve and I have never met. I know him, but he doesn't know me."
"During the conversation with me, Zheng Ziqiu kept mentioning the disaster in Dunzhou intentionally or unintentionally, hoping to stir up my dissatisfaction with the imperial court. Not many people in Kyoto knew that I was from Dunzhou, and they were all Zheng Ziqiu has no way of contacting anyone, and there is absolutely no way he would join Shadow Killer. After thinking about it, you are the only one.
Shadow Kill is well organized, and with Zheng Ziqiu's cautious style, he will not trust outsiders casually. Therefore, the person who disclosed my information to him must be his accomplice, and most likely one of the eleven people with a higher level than him. "
Yunxiang was slightly startled when she heard this, then shook her head and smiled bitterly.
"It's a secret. When I told Twelve about you, I missed this point. You guessed it right, I am the person who was killed by Shadow. I joined earlier than Twelve, so I ranked If you are taller than him, you can call me - Ah Jiu."
"Why?"
Rong Fei suddenly became excited. He grabbed Yunxiang's arm and asked angrily.
Yunxiang's face showed pain, but she didn't struggle.
"Except for me, the top twelve people in Shadow Kill have the right to make their own decisions, and in most cases they do not interfere with each other. I am only responsible for collecting and delivering information during Shadow Kill."
"So you want to say that Zheng Ziqiu's human abduction and trafficking had nothing to do with you? You are innocent, right?"
"I…"
"Even if you are not personally involved in human trafficking, you can still be considered an accomplice. There is nothing wrong with that."
"yes."
Yunxiang nodded sadly and admitted.
"You know the pain of losing a loved one, so why can you watch Zheng Ziqiu inflict this pain on others without doing anything to stop it?"
Rong Fei asked sternly.
"Because...because..."
"Because you also agree with Zheng Ziqiu's point of view, it is the Dayan court's inaction and disregard for the lives of the people, and you have identified the Dayan court as the source of the suffering you experienced.
Like Zheng Ziqiu, before you found the real culprit behind the Dunzhou disaster, you transferred all your hatred to the Dayan court and tried every means to oppose the court and try to subvert it.
You also agree with the so-called bullshit principle that those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters, tearing apart tens of thousands of families and sacrificing tens of thousands of lives, just to shake the bullshit dynasty's destiny. "
