For three consecutive days, the entire city of Lu was under martial law.
Whether it was the murder of the palace or the inexplicable earthquake, people were disturbed, and the news of Tanhualang's death in Lucheng even alarmed the court. On the morning of the third day, people came when the city gate opened.
Uncle Wang, who often sells wontons at the gate of the city, was busy with his work, but Aunt Liu next to him exclaimed in a low voice: "Ah! Which family's handsome young man is here!"
Uncle Wang also followed the voice and turned his head.
Not far away was a man in black brocade, about twenty-six or seventeen years old, holding a snow-white horse with his left hand.
He is holding an ordinary iron sword in his right hand. He has a handsome face with sharp edges and corners, but when people see him, they will definitely not pay attention to his appearance, but they will feel from the bottom of their hearts that this person has a temper. It's not good, the eyebrows are full of hostility.
The man led the horse, walked slowly to Uncle Wang's wonton stand, and said coldly, "How much is a bowl of wontons?"
He always looked at people with some scrutiny, and it was clearly just a sentence, but Uncle Wang was a little scared: "... Sanwen."
The man put the money on the table, and sat in front of the wooden table with a cold face, the iron sword was placed horizontally on the table.
Only then did Uncle Wang come to his senses, and looked at him anxiously: "There are too many, I can't find this stall..."
The man pushed the silver to him: "No need to look for it."
The snow-white horse let out a sigh of relief and moved its hooves, as if urging it. The man gave the horse a cold look and said, "If you make trouble again, I'll cut you off."
So the horse immediately became honest.
Uncle Wang also became honest in an instant, took the money and turned around to cook wontons.
The man finished eating the wontons slowly, then led the horse and walked into the city. He walked quickly, and after a while, he arrived at the gate of Prince Huai's mansion. It was a troubled time, and the gatekeeper immediately stopped him.
"who!"
"Deputy Commander of the Sinan Army, Qi Yan."
Qi Yan stretched out his hand and threw the token, the gatekeeper stared wide-eyed, and immediately ran in Tongbing.
It is quite different from other official positions. In Ruiguo, the Sinan service is a position for monks, exclusive to the emperor, and it is not easy for people to enter the Sinan service, let alone such an honor as the deputy commander!
Sure enough, in less than half a moment, Duke Huai went out to greet him, his behavior was both sad and enthusiastic, but he was a good Tai Chi player.
The son-in-law who was just about to marry him died, and the old fox just felt pity and panic in his heart. Firstly, he lost a useful assistant, and secondly, he died in his own mansion. The murderer went in and out like no one. It seems to have drawn a knife!
Qi Yan saw it clearly, and didn't poke it, he just said coldly: "Have you caught someone?"
The prefect of Lucheng, who was already at the mansion, knelt down with a plop, crying bitterly: "This official is incompetent, and the perpetrator was not found, but this fact is strange. The murderer used strange methods. Blocked the city, only entering and not exiting!"
This situation was also expected by Qi Yan, and without looking at the eunuch, he turned to King Huai and asked, "I heard that there is a distinguished guest at the prince's residence?"
Duke Huai nodded: "Yes, but..."
"On the day of the incident, were you in the mansion?"
Duke Huai was stunned, thinking back carefully, he was so busy that day, it seemed that he only saw Jiang Wuyi after the earthquake, so he said with a low face, "I didn't see him before the incident... Lord Qi thinks it will be this person Murder?"
Qi Yan didn't say yes or no, when he asked the answer he wanted, he turned around and led the horse to the gate.
Duke Huai hurriedly chased after him: "My lord! My lord wait a moment... Where are you going, the corpse is in the mansion, don't you want to see it?"
Qi Yan didn't turn his head back: "Leave it alone."
After finishing speaking, he led the horse and disappeared quickly.
Only then did Wang Taishou dare to follow, and complained to King Huai: "This Sinan officer is so arrogant that even princes don't pay attention to him, he is really rampant!"
Duke Huai had his own considerations in his mind, and his face darkened when he heard the words: "Why don't you go get lost and continue arresting people?"
After finishing speaking, he returned to the mansion with a flick of his sleeves.
…
In Prince Huai's mansion, Jiang Wuyi is pulling the little milk dragon to practice calligraphy.
Long Zaizai is still in a state of being able to read and not write Chinese characters. Generally speaking, he can understand every character, but he can’t write every word. Not only can’t write, he can’t even read articles. It was very difficult.
So Jiang Wuyi listed a lot of idioms and put them on the table line by line, asking him to copy them.
The poor little Naillong didn't even know how to use chopsticks, how could he know how to write, and sure enough, within half an hour, he made a fuss and burned the inkstone inkstone clean.
Jiang Wuyi looked at the table that had been burned to ashes, and then helplessly let Xiaolong go, criticizing: "Nonsense."
The maid outside the door came to clean it, and when she heard the words, she thought in her heart: This criticism is really an understatement, isn't your table burned with emotion
After the maid had cleared the table, Xiaolong Cub came to Jiang Wuyi's side and asked curiously, "Jiang Yan, I want to see the dragon scale you brought back."
The only time he saw Jiang Yanyuan himself, he found that although the scales on Jiang Yan's body were blue as a whole, they shone brightly in the sun, more dazzling than gems.
The Dragon Clan has always been obsessed with this kind of shiny things, so after three days of itchy heart, Xiaolong Zaizai still spoke out.
Dragon scales transformed from spiritual power will definitely be more beautiful!
Jiang Wuyi shook his head: "I didn't bring it back."
Dragon Cub was surprised: "How could it be? The earthquake that day was not caused by you?"
Jiang Wuyi did nothing wrong with the earthquake, but in fact, he really didn't bring the dragon scale back.
"Before being sealed, the Dragon Scale Dragon Ball was cut off from me, and now it is even more integrated with the earth veins. If I get the scale back, Shenting will know immediately."
Charles frowned: "What should I do then?"
Jiang Wudao: "It's okay, this time I'm going to reconnect with the dragon scales. When I find all the dragon scales, I can recall them together, and then I can get back the dragon balls."
Xiaolong Zaizai accurately captured the key information this time: "But Longlin cut off contact with you, do you know where the rest are?"
"have no idea."
Jiang Wuyi was silent for a while, and then said: "But those who follow the royal family will definitely be found."
Long Zizai thought for a while, and asked: "People of the royal family... you mean King Huai and Jing Yu?"
Jiang Wuyi shook his head, looked at the weeping willow outside the window, and murmured, "Probably, it's already here."
·
Qi Yan is holding an iron sword in his hand at the moment, standing straight by the water.
There was a spirit plate flying in front of him, and the pointer flew around twice wildly, as if it was very messy, but after flying around a few times, it finally pointed to the center of the water and stopped moving.
Qi Yan took back the spirit plate and breathed a sigh of relief.
There are very few dragon veins that have not been damaged, but they are all in the fiefdoms of several princes, which is relatively safe, but this Lucheng is really remote, and there are not even a few monks in the city, which is a loophole. This time the emperor sent him. It wasn't because of any Tanhua case, but because he was asked to go ahead and see if the dragon's veins were damaged.
But when he was about to leave, the spirit disk in his arms started to spin again, and flew into the air by itself, and finally the pointer stopped in the direction of Duke Huai's mansion.
Qi Yan frowned, his eyes sharpened, and after a little thought, he rode on the white horse and headed towards Duke Huai's mansion again.

What Jiang Wuyi said was obscure, so Long Zaizai naturally didn't understand, and he was a curious baby, so he immediately asked.
But Jiang Wuyi knew that once he explained, the topic would go on endlessly, probably for days and nights, so he simply changed the topic.
"These are not important, I just want to ask, where did you get so many gems?"
"Of course I brought it from where I came from!" Xiaolong Zizai became vigilant: "Why do you ask this!"
Xiaolong liked these gems so much that he would take them out every two days to play with them for a while, and wipe them again, but every time he took them out, they were different, which made Jiang Wuyi very curious about how many gems he had on his body.
Seeing Xiaolong's miserly appearance, Jiang Wuyi couldn't help teasing: "Of course I have to ask, you have spent a lot of silver taels these days. I see the gems look good and I like them very much. Why don't you pay them?"
Xiaolong Zaizai immediately turned his face and moved away from him three feet away.
"No! These gems are a gift I want to give to the princess. They have been stored for a long time, so how can I give them to you!"
The diamond given to Jiang Wuyi last time was disliked because the color was not bright. Really beautiful gems should not be given to others casually!
Jiang Wuben said it casually, but narrowed his eyes when he heard it.
"To the princess?"
Xiaolong Zaizai was ignorant and fearless, and nodded decisively under Jiang Wuyi's gradually cooling eyes: "Yes!"
It seemed that his tone was not decisive enough to dispel Jiang Yan's thoughts. After thinking about it, Xiao Nailong solemnly added a sentence—
"It's all for the princess, not for you..."
Before he finished speaking, the cup in Jiang Wuyi's hand was instantly smashed to pieces.
Dragon Cub actually wanted to say something else, so he swallowed it knowingly, stared at the pile of powder, shivered suddenly, and looked at Jiang Yan cautiously.
Ouch, why are you so angry...
I really can't give it...
The author has something to say: Jiang Wuyi: Sure, it’s all mine :)
