The shopkeeper screamed in fear: "I really don't know, he showed me the badge of the Imperial Forest Army, saying that he wanted to catch the robber."
Shu Changyue killed the shopkeeper with one finger, and said to Zhou Xinyang: "I can't live here, let's go!"
Zhou Xinyang nodded expressionlessly, and the two quickly left the inn and flew into the darkness.
When Shu Changyue jumped out of the inn, Yu Qingyao clearly saw the red lanterns hanging under the eaves of the inn.
There are four large black characters on the lantern: Fulai Inn.
Yu Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief, the real culprit was indeed King Kang.
There was a mysterious smile on the corner of her mouth, and Wu Zhen felt chills all over her body when she saw it.
Someone is going to be unlucky again, the master is terrible!
After confirming the real culprit, Yu Qingyao relaxed. What she was afraid of was not killing, but not knowing who to kill.
She will not let Kang Wang and his men go.
However, there is a dilemma here. The mastermind has been found, but who the accomplice is is unknown.
Yu Qingyao felt that she had to find a way to root out Kang Wang's power.
Shu Changyue led Zhou Xinyang to vigilantly turn left and right, and flew around for a while, after making sure no one was following him, he found a small inn to stay again.
At this time Zhou Xinyang forced out the alcohol and regained consciousness.
"Chang Yue, who would want to kill us?"
Shu Changyue is also wondering! They are from the Zhao country, and they have no hatred or enmity with the people here, so it is really unreasonable to kill them as soon as they meet.
"We should have no enemies in Zhou State. Those who want to kill us must be from Zhao State. Maybe they have made enemies with us before. Judging from the meaning of the shopkeeper, that person should be very powerful in the court of Zhou State." Shu Changyue pondered.
As soon as they settle down, they can come to the door and plan the assassination accurately. This is by no means something ordinary people can do. To be able to get the waist card of the Royal Forest Army and force the shopkeeper to cooperate, this must be a powerful person. The shopkeepers of restaurants and taverns are all good people and well-informed. Shu Changyue didn't think she could fool the shopkeeper with a fake waist card.
Zhou Xinyang nodded.
Shu Changyue said: "In addition to the situation I just said, another situation is that the person has an old relationship with Yu Qingyao. After Yu Qingyao went back, she cried to the person that the person wanted to kill us just to please the beauty."
Zhou Xinyang immediately said: "Impossible, it is impossible for Yu Qingyao to kill me."
Shu Changyue looked at her buddy speechlessly.
Zhou Xinyang said firmly: "She is so kind, there is no way she would want to kill me."
Shu Changyue surrendered and said, "Okay! Maybe that person made his own decisions?"
Zhou Xinyang did not refute this statement.
"Let's go out tomorrow to find out which dignitaries Yu Qingyao is acquainted with." Shu Changyue said.
Zhou Xinyang nodded reluctantly, from the bottom of his heart he didn't want to believe that Yu Qingyao had anything to do with Zhou's dignitaries.
The next day, Shu Zhou put on makeup and went to the teahouse to inquire, and soon heard many legends about Yu Qingyao.
The common people say that she is a philanthropist and a living god who saves the suffering.
Rich businessmen and officials said she was a peerless beauty, and the princes and grandchildren in Luoyi fell in love with her.
The Taoists kept praising her for being elegant and extraordinary, a model among female crowns, and the most ideal Taoist companion.
As for the dignitaries who are acquainted with her, there are many. In the past, there were the eldest sons of Lord Xiao's family, the sons of Earl Wang's family, and the sons of General Gao. Both Xinhaizong and Mingzhezong have many inner disciples who make good friends with her. The hottest news recently is that she has moved into Kang Wang's garden.
Shu Changyue sighed in admiration: "She's doing really well here, even better than in Hancheng."
Those next to Zhou Xinyang didn't care, what cared most was that she moved into Kangwang Garden.
He said, "Check out that Kang Wang."
Shu Changyue hummed, but was very worried.
There is no man here! There were only the two of them, and they were not familiar with the place of life. It was very difficult to check a prince.
Besides, so what if you find out
This is not the country of Zhao. To deal with a prince, the two of them may be powerless.
It's easy to find out what happened to Kang Wang Ming, but Shu Changyue was deeply suspicious of what he heard. In his opinion, Kang Wang is the most suspicious.
On this day, Dongfang Mu came to visit Yu Qingyao.
Yu Qingyao entertained him warmly as always.
Dongfang Mu chatted and asked nervously, "Qing Yao, are you really talking to King Kang?"
Yu Qingyao asked innocently: "What do you mean?"
Dongfang Mu blushed and said, "It is rumored that you are going to marry King Kang."
Yu Qingyao laughed and said, "How is it possible? Kang Wang's concubine, how could she be a traveling Taoist from outside. Even if Kang Wang had such thoughts, the emperor would not agree."
Dongfang Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "It's good that Qing Yao understands this."
Yu Qingyao said with a smile: "I'm just too kind, so I'm staying here."
Dongfang Mu said happily: "That's good, there are too many dirty things in the royal family, I'm afraid you will suffer."
Yu Qingyao said gratefully: "Thank you Brother Dongfang for your concern, Qingyao saves it."
"Well, the Imperial Treasure Pavilion is going to hold an auction recently, is Qingyao going to play?"
"Okay! Can I go?"
"Of course, leave it to me!"
Dongfang Mu made an appointment with her and chatted for a while before leaving happily.
After sending Dongfang Mu away, Yu Qingyao placed a pot of orchids in front of her bedroom window. This was an agreement with Qi Zhongxin, expressing that she had something to see him.
During the lunch break, Qi Zhongxin slipped in pretending to be a gardener, and rushed into her room. He said unhappily, "Is there anything I can't send a letter by letter? I have to make a trip."
Seeing him like this, Yu Qingyao found it funny.
Looking at Yu Qingyao who was shaking with laughter, Qi Zhongxin felt aggrieved. The dignified inner disciple of Haizong pretended to be a humble gardener. He was already aggrieved and was even laughed at.
However, seeing her smiling so happily, he felt that it wouldn't hurt to dress up a few more times for the sake of Bomei's smile.
He straightened his face and asked, "Did you find anything?"
Yu Qingyao stopped laughing and said, "I can be sure that he is the murderer, but there is no evidence."
Qi Zhongxin frowned and said, "Without evidence, how can you be sure it's him?"
Yu Qingyao said bluntly: "I asked him, and he admitted."
Qi Zhongxin was speechless.
If you say that, I will believe you. Will Elder Zhong believe it
If you want to do something to a prince, there is no evidence, even Xin Haizong can't do it. Kang Wang is Ming Zhezong's dark chess, and Ming Zhezong will definitely protect him.
He sighed: "It's useless just like this, there must be evidence."
Yu Qingyao said melancholy: "If there is no evidence, won't you avenge Senior Brother Zhou?"
Qi Zhongxin was suddenly at a loss for words. He really wasn't sure what Elder Zhong and other high-level officials would think about this matter.
He guessed that the high-level officials would use this matter as a means to threaten Kang Wang and force him to work for Xin Haizong. As long as Kang Wang compromises, I am afraid that this matter will be suppressed in all likelihood.
For the Zongmen, profit comes first, Zhou Youdao is dead, so what if he avenges him? There is no benefit at all, and it will arouse the resentment of the royal family and Ming Zhezong's revenge.
If Kang Wang took refuge in secret, he might be able to deal a heavy blow to Ming Zhezong. Such an opportunity, the higher-ups might not be willing to give up.
