Hengyuan was deeply alarmed.
He was indeed born in Qinglong Temple, but he had long been expelled from the temple and was temporarily staying in a health center in the outer city!
How could Number Three know so much about his background?!
They even knew he came from Qinglong Temple!
Who exactly is Number Three?
If it weren't for seeing Number Three helping him conceal his presence, Hengyuan would almost have thought Su Nan was a bad guy.
Hengyuan could only suppress his shock and chant a Buddhist prayer.
"I am ashamed, my Buddhist knowledge is insufficient, and I am unworthy of the title of Master."
Xu Pingzhi nodded upon seeing this.
Although it's strange that Su Zhexian was with a monk.
However, these two are most likely not suspects!
Xu Pingzhi then planned to let the two go.
Just now.
A group of night watchmen jumped down from the rooftop and landed beside the group.
Who are these two people?
Upon seeing this, Hengyuan inwardly groaned in despair.
Number Three knows the Imperial Guard in front of him, so his chances of passing the level smoothly are very high.
Why did the night watchman have to come over like that!
This is really troublesome!
The night watchmen are not as lenient as the Imperial Guards; they will definitely question people more thoroughly.
Moreover, when he broke out of the Pingyuan Earl's mansion, he had fought with several night watchmen!
If you get recognized, you'll be in big trouble!
It's truly a hardship.
……
The gong leader near the Pingyuan Earl's residence was Nangong Qianrou, and it happened to be her turn to be on night duty.
Nangong Qianrou's face was somewhat gloomy.
It's been a really eventful time lately.
First, Zhou Li died, and the night watchman has yet to find any results.
At this point, even the Earl of Pingyuan was killed!
Nangong Qianrou didn't care about the two people's lives or deaths, but she was afraid that these two things would become weapons for her political enemies in the court to attack her adoptive father.
Although his adoptive father was highly regarded by His Majesty and wielded immense power, he had more enemies than friends in the court!
We must find the murderer who killed Pingyuan tonight; we can't cause trouble for my godfather.
Nangong Qianrou led her team, rising and falling on the rooftops, her sharp eyes scanning the dark city.
Several officials from the Imperial Observatory, dressed in white, were carried on the backs of men with gongs, their eyes gleaming as they scanned the street below inch by inch.
Nangong Qianrou said in a deep voice, "After a murderer kills someone, their aura will inevitably be stained with blood. Have any of you noticed anything unusual?"
The sorcerers were only eighth-rank Qi observers with mediocre combat skills. They couldn't even scale walls and needed the gongs to carry them, but that didn't stop them from showing off their superiority in front of the warriors.
"No!" the white-robed officials from the Imperial Observatory replied indifferently.
Nangong Qianrou paused for a moment, then held back.
Just then, a white-robed official from the Imperial Observatory inadvertently caught a glimpse of the face of a young man below.
The white-robed sorcerer's expression suddenly turned excited, and he hurriedly patted the bronze gong beneath him.
"Hurry up!"
"Put me down!!"
Chapter 49 Everyone was shocked, could Number Three be...?
Seeing the astronomers from the Imperial Observatory so excited, Nangong Qianrou's face lit up with joy.
Could it be that some clue has been discovered?
Although these astronomers in the Imperial Observatory were proud and arrogant, they were still extremely useful in critical moments!
The men with the bronze gongs didn't dare to delay and quickly carried the astronomers down from the roof beams.
The white-robed sorcerers swiftly jumped down from the gong, rushed to the young man, and bowed deeply.
"Mr. Su, what are you doing here!"
Su Nan and Heng Yuan had just been questioned by the Imperial Guards.
Just as Xu Pingzhi was about to let people pass, the night watchman arrived.
Before the night watchman could speak, several white-robed sorcerers from the Imperial Observatory came over.
To be precise, he ran over and respectfully bowed to Su Nan.
Su Nan glanced at the sorcerers, but didn't recognize any of them.
He lectured at the Imperial Observatory a few days ago, and there were just too many diviners in attendance.
It's impossible for someone from southern Jiangsu to remember everyone.
The sorcerers from Su Nanchao nodded slightly in greeting.
This action, when seen by several white-robed sorcerers, was not considered impolite at all. On the contrary, they felt that this was the proper demeanor that an alchemy master like Mr. Su should possess.
"Mr. Su hasn't been to the Imperial Observatory for a long time. His fellow disciples miss you very much."
“Especially Senior Brother Song Qing, he talks about you every day.”
The white-robed sorcerers all wore smiles that were rarely seen on their faces.
There was not a trace of arrogance on their faces, only respect.
After all, this man in front of her was someone even Senior Brother Song Qing was willing to treat as a disciple!
They are only eighth-rank sorcerers, but one day they will become alchemists.
Therefore, cultivating a good relationship with this master of alchemy beforehand will greatly benefit your future promotion!
Nangong Qianrou initially thought that the astronomers had discovered something.
But when her gaze fell on Su Nan, she suddenly realized something.
It turned out that these white-robed sorcerers were going to see him.
Nangong Qianrou had heard her adoptive father, Wei Yuan, mention that Su Nan was lecturing at the Imperial Observatory, so she was not surprised by this.
But what is this person doing around here so late at night, instead of at the brothel?
Nangong Qianrou moved swiftly and arrived in front of Su Nan.
"Su Zhe Xian".
Nangong Qianrou was quite polite.
"Nangong Jinluo, we meet again." Su Nan smiled faintly.
Although Hengyuan's face remained normal, he was actually drenched in sweat.
The pressure is just too much...
He was a wanted criminal being hunted by the night watchmen, and now he was being watched by the Imperial Guards, the Astronomical Bureau sorcerers, and the night watchmen with their golden gongs. How could he not be under a lot of pressure?
However, judging from Number Three's appearance, he seems to have a good relationship with these forces.
The Imperial Guard's centurion's stats are commensurate with number three.
The usually arrogant astronomers of the Imperial Observatory were surprisingly respectful to Number Three.
And the night watchman, Jinluo, seemed to treat Number Three with great respect!
Just who is this number three?!
Hengyuan's curiosity grew even stronger!
Standing among the crowd, Hengyuan didn't dare to breathe loudly, only silently gripping his staff.
"Su Zhexian, what are you doing here?"
"We are currently searching for a wanted criminal."
Nangong Qianrou's gaze swept between Su Nan and Heng Yuan.
This Jinluo is not as easily fooled as Xu Pingzhi.
Su Nan then repeated what he had just said.
He took Hengyuan to Prince Yu's residence to meet Princess Pingyang.
Nangong Qianrou nodded slightly.
The case involving the Ministry of Justice clearly demonstrates the friendship between the Prince of Pingyang and Southern Jiangsu.
This matter can be easily resolved by sending someone to Prince Yu's residence to inquire; there's no need to lie about it.
However, Nangong Qianrou did not relax and turned to look at the astronomers.
"Are there any abnormalities in their auras?!"
The astronomers from the Imperial Observatory glanced at them casually and immediately shook their heads: "Neither of them has any abnormal aura!"
Mr. Su's condition was normal.
However, the monk's aura was somewhat strange, seemingly weak, but it did not emit any red light.
There's no need to mention this minor anomaly, lest it cause Mr. Su any trouble.
Nangong Qianrou responded with an "oh" upon hearing this.
