Chapter 667: Secret Talk in the Palace

In fact, He Lingchuan has one more thing to say:

The case of the immortality medicine has been exposed for more than a month. Does Qingyang State Master really have no countermeasures?

Bai Ziqi's investigation is aimed at her. Is she a person who does nothing?

In this situation, what should Qingyang State Master do?

While the Chiyan people evacuated the Qing Palace, Fu Shanyue did not forget to send the hawk to fly high in the sky to Tianxin Island to find out the latest situation.

At this time, more and more people gathered in the Qing Palace, and everyone stretched their necks, wanting to eat a big melon.

In the past month, the melons that broke out in Lingxu City have been sweeter than each other.

But the guards of the Tiangong suddenly besieged the Qing Palace? This is definitely the most outrageous one this year, no, the most outrageous in the past hundred years! Especially since the immortality medicine case has been fermenting for a month, everyone basically knows the cause and effect.

If we can find some explosive news today, won’t the warm kang be lively at night?

…

Tianxin Island, Lingxiao Palace.

Qingyang State Master stood behind the door, and there were chaotic footsteps coming and going outside the wall, and someone was arguing loudly.

She looked up at the high wall of the palace. A branch of late osmanthus sticking out from above was more than half withered, but the fragrance was still lingering.

She looked up again, and there was a palm-sized sky.

The sun was slanting at this moment, and it could not shine through this deep well-like courtyard.

Qingyang Imperial Master remembered that when he first entered the palace at the age of twelve, he also stood here and looked at the sky above his head.

The sky has never changed.

But at that time, the osmanthus tree had not grown tall and could not reach in.

More than 170 years passed in the blink of an eye.

So fast.

She sighed faintly.

The noise outside the door stopped at some point, and the footsteps also faded away.

After a while, the door was pushed open, and a palace woman whispered: "Imperial Master, please come this way."

She closed the door and led Qingyang Imperial Master inside.

Although it was late autumn, the grass and trees along the way were lush and green, without any trace of desolation.

The palace lady had silver hair and hunched shoulders. Qingyang Imperial Master followed her and said, "Little girl, long time no see."

The palace lady turned around and saw that she happened to walk past a clump of white wood fragrance. It was really a beautiful woman with a charming appearance.

Although she looked closely at Qingyang Imperial Master, there were a few faint wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

"Don't worry, even the guards of the Heavenly Palace dare not trespass into Ganquan Palace!" The palace lady said seriously, "This is the safest place in the world."

Qingyang Imperial Master sighed, "I never thought that one day I would take refuge here."

"The Emperor said a long time ago that if there is something, you should come here and wait for him." The palace lady said, "It's a pity that the Emperor went to Xushan in the afternoon and was not in the palace, otherwise he could take charge of the overall situation for you!"

Qingyang Imperial Master murmured to himself, "Overall situation?" I'm afraid the overall situation has been decided.

She knew in her heart that the gods wanted to find the Emperor at this time just to cut off her retreat.

However, no matter how arrogant Ren Duyunshi and the Heavenly Palace Guards were, they couldn't break into the palace and turn it upside down, right?

She fought in the first half of her life and planned in the second half of her life, contributing everything to Lingxu, and only then did she get a promise from the emperor:

No matter how the court situation changes, she will definitely see the emperor in Ganquan Palace.

The palace woman invited her to the warm room, took a brocade quilt, and brought hot tea and snacks, and then said: "Just stay here, you can take a rest if you are tired. The emperor will go to Xushan in the afternoon, and he will be back before dusk at the earliest."

Qingyang State Master asked her: "Do you have an incense burner?"

The palace woman was startled: "Oh, yes."

She found a small incense burner from somewhere, and a handful of red incense.

"Thank you very much."

The palace maid shook her head: "What are you talking about. Fifty-five years ago, if you hadn't brought me back from the snow, I would have been gone in the world. If you need anything, just ask."

After doing all this, she backed out and gently closed the door and left.

Qingyang Imperial Master closed his eyes and rested for a while, then walked around the small garden outside the palace, making sure that there was no surveillance here, and then returned to the warm room and closed the door.

She lit seven thin incense sticks, inserted them into the incense burner, and then placed the incense burner to the east.

The gap in the door was very small, and the autumn wind could hardly blow in, and the smoke column went straight up.

Qingyang Imperial Master knelt down, muttering something.

The smoke column above the incense burner stagnated slightly, and when it rose to a certain height, it pressed down, condensing without dispersing.

About half a minute later, the smoke gathered into a gray ball, and slowly turned into a human face.

The facial features of this face were very vague, with barely two eyes and a mouth.

Then, a majestic voice sounded:

"Where are you?"

"Lingxiao Palace." Qingyang State Master stopped praying, "I rushed here after you notified me. Bai Ziqi led the Heavenly Palace Guards to attack Qing Palace directly. Who instructed this?"

"Your Lingxu Saint!" the voice said, "It did not even discuss with us and directly issued an order."

Even though he was mentally prepared, Qingyang State Master still turned pale. After all, it felt bad to be directly targeted by the big boss: "I didn't have time to talk about it before. You just said that Bai Ziqi left the city on the opening day of the Caohai Hunting to find Kong Jiaxiang in Chiyan?"

The voice snorted: "Yes, to Kong Jiaxiang's hometown Yangshui. But Bai Ziqi never reported this clue, nor did he report his itinerary, causing all the gods to be kept in the dark."

Or, Bai Ziqi was guarding against them!

"He is really loyal to Lingxu."

Qingyang Imperial Master frowned: "Kong Jiaxiang can't be alive."

"The person Bai Ziqi brought back was a dead person? No, no, that's not what he reported to Saint Lingxu. Not only is there a living witness, but he also has physical evidence in his hands."

"I sent Lu Qingzhou to deal with the aftermath of Qingfu Temple. Lu Qingzhou saw Kong Jiaxiang taking poison and died, and then he set fire to Qingfu Temple." Qingyang National Master looked solemn, "The fire started from Kong Jiaxiang's house, he couldn't have been wrong."

"Did the man surnamed Lu deceive you?"

"Lu Qingzhou is loyal to me and there is no way he would betray me." Qingyang National Master shook his head slowly, "Besides, he died suddenly at home a few days ago, it should be Qiu Gong's hand."

The voice said: "Perhaps Kong Jiaxiang faked his death and deceived your apprentice."

Qingyang National Master was silent.

After all, she didn't do this personally, she was not at the scene. Even if Lu Qingzhou reported to her afterwards, did he miss some details?

"You said Kong Jiaxiang is dead, who is the living person that Bai Ziqi found?"

"Maybe a fake."

The voice said, "Fake? If you are sure he is fake, why don't you stay in Qing Palace to confront him? Why did you run directly to Lingxiao Palace?" And he ran out without looking back, which is not like the usual style of Qingyang National Master.

"You think Bai Ziqi is easy to deceive, right? He caught such an important witness as Kong Jiaxiang, but he didn't go to verify his identity?" Qingyang National Master smiled bitterly, "Kong Jiaxiang was arrested in his hometown, and so many relatives and friends in Yangshui can prove that he is the real person. Besides, I guess Bai Ziqi will find some clues in Lingxu City. On the other hand, if he didn't determine that Kong Jiaxiang was ironclad evidence, how dare he lead troops to bomb my Qing Palace?"

"Besides, even if I confront Kong Jiaxiang, will Lingxu City believe him or me? Who will judge the truth of his words?" What is true and what is false, only she knows. But how can others believe her? "Lu Qingzhou, who could prove that Kong Jiaxiang was dead, died suddenly. So this Kong Jiaxiang is real."

It doesn't matter whether Kong Jiaxiang is real or not, the existence of "Kong Jiaxiang" itself is important.

His testimony and his confession must be true.

When Shuangye finds Kong Jiaxiang, or "makes" this person, the game between them will be decided.

The voice doesn't care about the evidence itself, it just wants to know one thing: "You have really been nailed to death, and you can't overturn the case?"

"Maybe."

The smoke is also very straightforward, rolling twice and then dissipating.

"Tong Ming Zhenjun!" Qingyang Guoshi suddenly said, "If I go to prison for trial, you can't escape."

Another voice came from the smoke, a little annoyed: "Are you threatening me?"

"I know that Miaozhantian has a divine object called Touchstone. I'm afraid that if I can't pass it, I will tell the fact that you privately sent me the divine blood."

In addition to the pulp beads, there is another indispensable medicine for making the immortal medicine, that is the divine blood.

If you can't get the divine blood, it's useless to pile up pulp beads in the room.

Obviously, the Emperor and the Heavenly Palace knew this. Once Qingyang State Master was captured, he would be questioned about the source of the divine blood.

Qingyang State Master knew that Miaozhantian's touchstone magic was very useful for judging the truth of confessions.

By then, wouldn't Tongming Zhenjun, who was an accomplice, be exposed?

Tongming Zhenjun laughed: "You worry too much! Miaozhantian just used this magic, and even something unexpected happened in the middle, so the loss was huge, and he couldn't use it a second time in three to five months!"

Qingyang State Master was stunned: "An unexpected event?" Could it be that Tongming Zhenjun did something?

But when she heard that Miaozhantian's magic was temporarily sealed, she was relieved.

"Miaozhantian tried the boy named He next to Prince Chiyan, but didn't get a satisfactory result."

The boy named He? He Xiao?

Qingyang State Master was very surprised. He Xiao did make things difficult for her. If it weren't for this person who suddenly showed up, Xi Yunhe would not have been able to expose the immortality medicine case even if she wanted to.

This young man does have some skills, but Miao Zhantian actually used magic on him?

As a national teacher, Qingyang knows a lot of inside information. For example, if the gods want to use magic in the human world, they have to pay an extremely high price.

The barrier between the two worlds is no joke, and the laws cannot be easily bypassed.

This price is not only paid by the gods, but even Lingxu City has to pay.

And it is Miao Zhantian's signature skill, which is definitely not something that can be used easily.

What secrets does the young man have that even the gods are willing to spend a lot of effort to test?

Of course, Qingyang Imperial Master was busy with his own affairs, so this thought only flashed through his mind. He said to Master Tongming, "The attitude of other gods towards my case may not be so firm, right?"

"You know, even if most gods don't care, as long as a small number of them insist, you will not be able to escape the prison!" Master Tongming said coldly, "Don't think about biting me back, I won't admit it."

"Which war didn't flow like a river of blood? My men just killed a few weak monsters, and the crime can be light or heavy." Master Qingyang said solemnly, "I would like to ask you to say a few good words for me in front of the gods."
