Qi Huang

The carriage carried Xie Xuan Dada away.

In the "Snow of the Sky" a wall away, Qin Ting was looking down from a height with his head propped up.

Inside the wide-open pavilion window, the wind sounded like a distant and ancient song, blowing from behind him, brushing his black hair and raising his robe.Someone landed lightly from behind him, and emerged from the endless darkness.

"My lord."

"En." Qin Ting lazily responded, knocking a series of sounds on the table with his knuckles, "What's the matter?"

"Scar Liu has been confirmed dead. The cause of death is a very rare poison. The onset of the disease is fast. It took less than a quarter of an hour from the poison to death. Now the body is still in the 'Dark Pavilion', waiting for the adults."

During the interrupted transaction in the outer suburbs that day, the man wearing the hat ran away first, followed by the man with the scar on his face. Qin Ting caught some minions on the spot, and later found Liu's neighbor by extorting confessions. body place.

Dao Scar Liu is not a Beijing official, but came to Bianliang from the distant Quzhou.Quzhou is adjacent to Yongzhou. Although the two places are geographically connected, Yongzhou is not as rich as Quzhou.The people there are in a semi-famine all the year round, there is no one to plow and weave the wasteland, the taxes are heavily increased, and the families of the parents and officials are as stretched as ordinary people.

He fled here and went to Bianliang, and what he did was not an ordinary transaction, but private salt.

The head of a mere state or county would not dare to take the risk of punishing the nine clans and touch the deepest Nilin of each dynasty.

There must be someone behind him.

The news was passed on to Qin Ting by Li Zheng, so the name of the person behind it is self-evident.

"My subordinates watched very closely, but for some reason he still died." The dark guard blamed himself, "The 'Dark Pavilion' never allows outsiders to enter, and after his death, my lord has little reason to catch Li Jin Got one."

Qin Ting picked up the wine glass and sniffed it, and said indifferently: "Since Li Jin dares to meddle in the sale of private salt, he must not be afraid of being held accountable by the higher authorities. It doesn't matter if there is one more or one less."

The aroma of wine remained at the bottom of the cup, Qin Ting glanced at it, and turned around to find that the dark guard was still contemplating, and couldn't help chuckling: "Don't think about it, the poison didn't come from behind, Scar Liu has already been poisoned, Only die when he deserves to die."

That's why Li Jin is not afraid of scar Liu being arrested.

On the day when the queen mother was forced to establish the crown prince, in Ziluan hall, Li Jin left the hall in a hurry after learning the news that Scar Liu's deal had been interrupted.Half of his panic was fake—he wanted to pretend to show it to the people present, and if someone made a change because of this, he could find out the person who was stumbling him behind his back.

The other half is not all false - selling private salt is a serious crime that can punish the nine clans. It doesn't matter if Scar Liu is arrested. Someone wants to touch the Li family, and the enemy is in the dark. The secret of the day...

A mere scarred Liu is dead when he dies.

Keep the secret forever.

Death without proof is a method he will use.

"Then what should we do?" An Wei said, "According to this, isn't this layout just a waste of time?"

"Can you still use allegory?" Qin Ting looked surprised, "Half a year ago, you didn't know a single word."

The dark guard blushed at Qin Ting's words, scratched his head and scratched his cheek: "My lord, stop making fun of Ye Yi."

Qin Ting smiled, as if he didn't realize what was going on.

Jokes aside for now.In fact, thinking about it carefully, what Ye Yi said was true.Once Scar Liu died, everything they did would be in vain.Unless you can catch another person involved in the transaction that day.

But their transaction is extremely hidden, if they hadn't got the news from Li Zheng early, it might be difficult to find out.What's more, that person was wearing a bamboo hat, and he didn't recognize his face, so he ran away when Qin Ting first appeared, and there was no way to find him.

Qin Ting shook his fan slightly, and looked out from the window on the second floor of "Tianjiexue", Xie Xuan's carriage had completely disappeared at the end of the long street.He retracted his gaze regretfully, and there was no worry in his eyes about the death of Scar Liu.

Ye Yi felt a little relieved.

My lord must have other methods, he has always been impeccable in his work, even if it seems unreliable on the surface, he is...

Thinking up to this point, Ye Yi suddenly realized that he seemed to have a disrespectful idea—he actually planned the Patriarch in his heart!

But when he followed Qin Ting's gaze, he swallowed the intention of self-reflection silently.

Endured it, Ye Yi still couldn't hold it back.

"My lord, is what you said just now true?"

"Huh? What's real or fake?"

Just, just a vassal, something sincere!

Ye Yi squatted in the dark and listened the whole time. The Qin family has a great career. Even if it loses power now, it is not necessary to reveal the whole family to others!The Patriarch of his family doesn't look stupid!

Qin Ting remained silent, raised his hand and squeezed out two fingers, blowing a gust of wind.The strong wind hit the wine glass, flying it several feet into the air, and flew into Ye Yi's embrace with a sound of "dang".

"?"

Ye Yi was puzzled for a while, and looked down at the wine glass.I saw that the bottom of the cup was covered with a layer of wine, and it was a good product when it was crystal clear.He stared at it for a while, and suddenly felt that the smell was a bit strange.

"... mixed with water?" he said.

He tried to dip his finger in some wine and put it to his mouth to taste, but before he could move, Qin Ting moved his wrist, and the folding fan that he never left his hand cut out a wind blade and spun rapidly in the air.

The fan carried a cold wind, and pushed Ye Yi's hand away, knocking the wine glass in his hand to the ground.

"That's the cup of His Royal Highness." Qin Ting smiled, "Don't be rude."

Ye Yi: "..."

Murderous.

He realized it later, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

What is he doing!

The little Highness was tricked into this "Tianjiexue" by the Patriarch, and it was fine to get drunk in a daze.

and many more!

Ye Yi raised his head suddenly.

Qin Ting bent his lips and said with a smile: "False is true and sometimes true is false, Ye Yi, you can recite the rest of the words, and you need to learn more about knowing people's hearts."

Alcohol is fake, so is drunkenness.

The two seem to be toasting to invite the moon and drinking together, but in reality the truth and the false are intertwined, like marching in the fog, searching for stars in the clouds, without distinguishing the truth from the truth.

How true is what the Patriarch said?

Ye Yi once again felt that it would be great to be a secret guard who obeyed orders.

Qin Ting stretched his waist and reluctantly stood up: "Let's go, go home."

Ye Yi followed silently, not daring to say more.

Qin Ting walked out a few steps, then suddenly stopped and turned around: "At this time, those old men should wake up, right?"

But no, it's almost dawn, and most of the Qin family's old ministers are old, and they got up earlier than chickens.If Qin Ting goes back now, he must bump into him head-on.

"Oh." Qin Ting's face collapsed, he turned around and lay down on the table again, "I don't want to go home."

Ye Yi: "..."

With a stiff face, he decided not to say a word.

Qin Ting became more and more helpless.First he lay back on the chair and stool, using the handle of the fan as a wooden fish stick, and pounded endlessly. Then he turned over and sat up, standing in front of the second floor pavilion and sighing, feeling very depressed.

Finally, he slammed the pillar hard.

"Or let's run away!"

Ye Yi: "?"

Where do you sing again?

"What about the Qin family and the Li family, I don't want to see their donkey faces." Qin Ting said, "Ye Yi, prepare the horse, I'm going back to Penglai Mountain to see the master, and the brothers and sisters, long time no see, they must miss me very much. "

Ye Yi: "..."

Are you serious?

Ye Yi thought for a while, decided to do the opposite, and returned to the original question: "Master Patriarch, the body of Scar Liu..."

Qin Ting paused: "Ah, yes. There are still corpses."

Shaking his folding fan, he regretted, "Then I can't go back to Penglai."

There are not many steps on the second floor, only two floors, six steps, twelve steps in total.Qin Ting, who practiced martial arts since childhood, walked very slowly, as if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire waiting for him in front of him.

Qin Ting, who is used to putting the wind and the moon into poetry, and the bright moon as wine, is full of flair, at this moment, showing a kind of loneliness that is incompatible with him.

At this time, Ye Yi didn't know whether it was true or false.
