Chapter 981

In the darkness, after a brief silence, a strange voice sounded:

"The person who entrusted the dream was very cunning and avoided the palace. That's why we didn't notice it."

"We know this news, not earlier than you, how can we know who is the person who entrusted the dream?"

"Could it be a member of the Black Lotus Sect? They are good at using the name of gods and Buddhas to deceive foolish men and women. They must be good at dream tricks."

"I also suspect that it was done by the people of the Black Lotus Sect. Those guys are inextricably linked to the faceless man you worshiped as the national teacher. Maybe they came from the mouth of the faceless man. I heard some news."

"It seems that the mouth of that faceless man is not as tight as ours."

"Black Lotus Sect?"

The old Qingtang King who occupied Rikander's body ignored the weird laughter coming from the shadows around him. He frowned slightly, and he had the same suspicion in his heart, but he was also a little puzzled.

"Why did the Black Lotus Sect do this? Spreading rumors ruined my event, what good is it for them?"

In the shadows, a wild god is calmly analyzing:

"The gang of the Black Lotus Sect are all afraid that the world will not be chaotic. With the rumors today, the situation in Qingtang will inevitably become more chaotic. Whether they take the opportunity to develop believers or gain so-called merits, they are more than usual It's easier. What's more, for them, how can an ignorant and greedy idiot be easier to control than an old and cunning hero?"

The old Qingtang king thought for a while, and felt that this possibility was not impossible.

He stared at the dark place with piercing eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I don't care what method you use, find out who is doing the trick as soon as possible, and what is the purpose. If it is really the Black Lotus Sect, put them in Qing Tang's forces are uprooted! If you dare to oppose me and hinder my plan of rebirth, you will be killed by people, ghosts will be killed, and gods will be slaughtered!"

In the last sentence, what he said was full of murderous intent. Even the wild gods hiding in the shadows were shocked by his monstrous killing intent, stopped laughing, and responded with orders.

After sending wild gods to investigate what happened, the old Qingtang king still felt that it was not enough, so he ordered people to summon all the four patrol battalion commanders including Qin Shaoyou into the palace, and ordered them personally.

With the observation of talents such as [Bright Eyes], [Debate Listening] and [Wonderful Nose], Qin Shaoyou discovered that the old Qingtang King's soul state, as well as the physical body he occupied, had become even more serious after only seeing him for a few days. Oh no.

The physical body has already begun to grow hair, and if it is not dealt with, it will become stiff. At that time, the old Qingtang King's soul might be kicked out of this body.

Qin Shaoyou secretly guessed: "It seems that the new round of house seizure that the old Qingtang King is preparing should be in the near future."

"Last night, under the guise of ghosts and gods, a thief spread rumors about me in a dream. Have you all heard about it?"

In the identity of Rikande, the old Qingtang king questioned the commanders of the four patrol battalions.

Among the four people, apart from Qin Shaoyou, another person was also newly promoted. Like Qin Shaoyou, the 'cruel official', he belongs to the Seven Princes faction.

As for the other two commanders, they stayed at the Qingtang King City before, and they were lucky not to die in the attack on the Xia Kingdom.

But they were also afraid that Rikander would find an excuse to deal with them.

Especially after this big defeat, they were even more afraid of becoming the target of Rikander to vent his anger, so these days, they carried out the orders given by Rikander very seriously, and did not dare to violate them in the slightest.

It is the same today.

Although they were all dreamed by ghosts and gods last night, and after waking up, they were guessing endlessly, but they rushed to the palace as soon as they received the order.

But at this moment, after hearing the inquiry from 'Rikander', they only felt terrified and didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, 'Rikander' didn't need them to answer, so he said:

"Go and find out the thief who dreamed of me last night immediately! Even if you only find some clues, I will reward you a lot! But if you don't find out anything, don't blame me for being cruel and merciless. In addition, let you Some people are patrolling the city, and once they find someone spreading this rumor, they will be arrested and tortured to see who is instigating him to do so!"

The leaders of the other three patrolling battalions left the study after handing over their hands, preparing to mobilize manpower to investigate and clean up inside and outside the royal city.

Qin Shaoyou said he had something to report, so he stayed.

After the leaders of the three patrol battalions left, he tentatively said, "Your Majesty, could it be the Third Prince who spread rumors against you?"

When the old Qingtang King heard this, his eyes flashed, he stared at Qin Shaoyou, and asked in a deep voice: "Why do you doubt the third...doubt my third brother?"

Qin Shaoyou agitated [Smart Tongue], and said flickeringly: "My lord, when I was called to his mansion by Jiaji yesterday, he hinted at me to change my course.

Now everyone here in Wangcheng knows that I, Dazan, is the king's hawk dog. It is impossible for Jiaji to be unaware, but he still hinted to me.

I didn't realize it at the time, but when I went back and thought about it carefully, I thought it wasn't his intention, but the third prince's instruction behind him.

It is very possible that the third prince has secretly returned to the vicinity of the royal city. Because you are jealous of your prestige and status, you spread such rumors, wanting to damage your reputation, so that you can do some outrageous acts!

Your Majesty, why don't you let me investigate secretly. If the third prince really returns to the vicinity of the royal city, I will find an opportunity to kill him! "

The old Qingtang king took a deep look at Qin Shaoyou, his eyes were complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, he put on a straight face and scolded: "It is impossible for my third brother to do such a thing. Don't make random guesses, it's better to do an investigation. I suspect that this rumor was spread by the black lotus sect monster , you can try in this direction."

After a pause, the old Qingtang King added: "If during the investigation, you really find out that my third brother is involved, don't mess around, and report to me immediately!"

"Yes." Qin Shaoyou bowed his hands and accepted the order, with a look of loyalty.

When he retired and left the study, the old Qingtang king just sighed softly.

"This Dazan is a bit smart. He deduced from Jiaji's few words that the third child is back. He is so smart that I am reluctant to kill him, a 'traitorous official' after taking away the body of the third child. 'It's time to gain popularity..."

When Qin Shaoyou walked out of the palace, he unexpectedly discovered that the other three commanders of the patrol battalion were still gathered at the door and did not go far.

Seeing him leaving the palace, the three commanders came up to welcome him.

First, they flattered each other, expressing their admiration for Commander Dazan's thunderous methods in recent days, and then said that everyone is now a colleague, and they should communicate more in the future.

In the end, they revealed their true meaning of staying and waiting for Qin Shaoyou.

"Commander Dazan, what do you think about the case of ghosts entrusting dreams last night?"

Fearing that Qin Shaoyou would not say anything, they said one after another: "Commander Dazan, don't get me wrong, we don't want to take credit, but now, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, and if we can't find any clues, we will all suffer. So, some What news, it's better to communicate with each other. Breaking this case earlier will not only be good for us, but also avoid the Seventh Prince's reputation from being even more damaged."

When Qin Shaoyou heard what the three commanders said, he almost didn't laugh out loud.

He originally wanted to find an opportunity to direct the investigation to the Black Lotus Sect and Yama Ghost King.

Before, the old Qingtang King took the initiative to ask him to investigate the Black Lotus Sect, and now these three 'colleagues' came to ask for advice again. Isn't this opportunity just right at your door?

He tried not to laugh, and cupped his hands and said, "I don't dare to take my opinion. Last night, I also dreamed about the ghost who spread rumors. I just felt that he looked familiar, as if I had seen him somewhere. In addition, I just saw him I reported some things to the Seventh Prince, and it is not convenient to disclose the specifics, but when I was retiring, the Seventh Prince pointed out a way for me to investigate the Black Lotus Sect."

"The appearance of ghosts and gods looks familiar?"

"Investigate the Black Lotus Sect?"

After listening to Qin Shaoyou's words, the three commanders either pondered or looked suspicious.

Qin Shaoyou achieved his goal, said no more, and said goodbye.

After he left, the three commanders also dispersed.

And one of them, after bringing his cronies with him, went straight out of the city, and went straight to the temple of the ghost king Yama outside the city.
