Prince Dongchuan is here?
When Qin Qiaoer heard the news, he subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Qin Shaoyou.
She once heard from Qin Shaoyou that it was the Dongchuan Hou Shizi who helped the King of Shu spread the word, asking the Luocheng Town Demon Division to 'take good care of' several night watchmen, including Qin Shaoyou, who came back alive from the Rafzi River.
Fortunately, Xue Qingshan, the Baihuguan of the Luocheng Town Demon Division, is Qin Shaoyou's third brother-in-law. Otherwise, Qin Shaoyou would have been sent out to perform difficult tasks in return for his return to the Luocheng Town Demon Division just after recovering from his injuries. The noble ones take it seriously.
Now it has been determined that the so-called 'care' of the King of Shu was basically the King of Hell asking for his life!
It’s just unclear whether Prince Dongchuan was used as a gun in the whole incident, or was he more deeply involved? So much so that he wanted to kill Qin Shaoyou and others, lest they know some secrets they shouldn't know and tell some things they shouldn't tell.
Qin Shaoyou noticed the gaze cast by the sixth sister, grinned at her, and told her not to worry, he would not ruin business because of personal grudges.
However, just when Qin Qiaoer was about to meet Prince Dongchuan, he suddenly interrupted and said to the postman who came to convey the news: "Please go and tell Prince Dongchuan that we are discussing important official matters and ask him to be here." Stay inside the inn for a while, wait until we have finished our discussion, and then summon him."
"ah?"
The postman was stunned when he heard this, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"My lords, did you not hear what I said clearly? This is Dongchuan Hou Shizi, the young prince is here..."
There was another sentence behind him that he hesitated to say: "How much face does it mean for the young Marquis to come to visit in person? If you don't go out to greet him quickly, you actually have to leave the young Marquis aside? Who gave you this? This courage?"
Although the postman did not say what he said next, Zhu Xiucai still saw what he was thinking, sneered and said: "We are red-clothed envoys, and when we are on a mission, we represent the current Holy Emperor! Don't say Dong When the Crown Prince of Chuan is here, it means that the Lord of Dongchuan is coming in person, so you have to wait as much as you should!"
"You guys..."
The postman's expression changed slightly and he looked at Qin Qiao'er.
Although Qin Qiaoer didn't know which song his brother was singing, he was very cooperative and said sternly: "What they mean is what I mean. Go and tell Prince Dongchuan that if he is willing to wait, please wait at the inn." Wait inside for a while. When we have finished discussing important matters, we will summon him. If he is unwilling, please do it yourself, but we will truthfully record this matter in the action file. "
Seeing her resolute attitude, the postman had no choice but to accept the order, returned to the lobby of the post station, and relayed these words to Prince Dongchuan, without daring to make her jealous.
After hearing this, Dongchuan Hou Shizi's expression showed no change on his face, but the people who came with him were furious, with the attitude of threatening to humiliate his ministers to death.
Immediately there was a burly general who gritted his teeth angrily and begged for orders: "They are just a group of hawks and dogs relying on human power, how dare they be so arrogant. Little Marquis, why don't you let the last general bring a few people in, teach them a lesson, and bring them to justice?" Catch him!"
"If you really did that, you would have fallen into their trap. When the court blames you, it will be difficult for us, father and son, to protect you."
Prince Dongchuan shook his head, pulled up a stool and sat down. He smiled at Yi Cheng, who was standing beside him cautiously, and said, "Don't be nervous, go get us some tea."
Immediately, he glanced at the men he had brought with him, and said with a smile: "Since the red-clothed envoys are discussing important matters, let's wait here for a while. As they said, locally, they represent But your Majesty, we ministers must not offend the Holy Master."
The subordinates accepted the order with their hands filled with anger, but did not sit down. Instead, they stood behind Prince Dongchuan Hou.
Dongchuan Hou Shizi did not speak to them anymore, but just thought in his heart: Are these red-clothed envoys expressing their dissatisfaction for not being summoned by their father? Haha, discussing something important? This was clearly blaming his father for delaying seeing them.
At the same time, in the courtyard, Qin Shaoyou asked Qiu Shi after Qin Qiaoer sent away the postmen: "Brother Qiu, judging from your expression just now, it seems that you have discovered something?"
It turned out that Qin Shaoyou suddenly interrupted just now because he noticed a subtle change in Qiu Shi's expression when the post announced that Prince Dongchuan Hou was visiting, so he temporarily changed his words and asked Prince Dongchuan to wait outside for the summons so that he could ask Qiu Shi. What exactly was discovered.
Qiu Shi replied: "Sir, the Dongchuan Hou Shizi outside, my Gu insect has seen him entering and exiting the prison on Xiaochang Road many times in the past two days."
"oh?"
Qin Shaoyou's eyes lit up and he immediately made a gesture.
Zhu Xiucai immediately took out the layout map of the main city of Qingtangwei that he had measured and drawn with his feet in the past two days. He clicked on one of the circled places and said, "Sir, that's what Taoist Qiu Shi said. The prison should be right here."
Qin Qiaoer came up, squinted his eyes and looked at it, thinking: "It seems that those generals involved in the crime are very likely to be imprisoned here. Brother, you said that the Marquis of Dongchuan dragged us on purpose. In addition to expressing grievances and dissatisfaction to the imperial court and His Majesty the Emperor, do you want to find out the cause of the case on your own so that you can take credit from us, or do you have some other purpose?"
After Qin Shaoyou thought about it seriously, he said in a deep voice: "It's hard to say, maybe there are two possibilities. However, since Prince Dongchuan Hou has come to visit on his own initiative, then we can't see Dongchuan Hou and ask to interrogate these few It should be possible to involve generals involved in gambling, right? I always feel that in addition to letting the Qingtang barbarians and wizards cross the border, these generals involved in gambling may also be able to dig out some other clues..."
"Other clues? For example?" Qin Qiaoer asked.
"For example, the relationship between the Marquis of Dongchuan and the King of Shu, whether he secretly helped or even participated in the series of things that the King of Shu did, his relationship with Qingtang, and what happened to this sudden war. .”
Qin Shaoyou told all the problems that had been bothering him these days.
A flash of light flashed in Qin Qiaoer's eyes. She immediately gave an order to Zhu Xiucai and a red-clothed envoy under her command who were good at escaping surveillance, and told them to go to the prison on the school road immediately. When they arrived, they revealed their identity as the red-clothed envoy. Asked to go in and interrogate the prisoner.
"If I predict correctly, the people guarding this prison will definitely not let you in. You will start a fight with them. The bigger the fight, the better!" Qin Qiaoer warned.
When Cui Youyou heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he volunteered, "I'm good at making troubles. Why don't you let me go with you?"
Qin Qiaoer thought about it and felt that Zhu Xiucai would be safer if Cui Youxian went with him, so he agreed to his offer.
Qin Shaoyou, on the other hand, pulled Cui Yougui and urged him: "Senior Brother Cui, please be patient and don't make too much noise!"
After Zhu Xiucai and Cui Youwei used spells and talismans to hide their aura and body shape, and used dexterous and quick movements and exquisite escape skills to escape from the inn, Qin Shaoyou and the others waited for a while before sending The man went out and invited Dongchuan Hou Shizi, who had already drank two cups of tea, into the courtyard.
