Chapter 681 Qingyang Imperial Master's Decision

"Besides, Bega has recently restarted the war. I originally hoped to recruit another general for the emperor." After saying that, she sighed.

If it hadn't been for the elixir case, this would have been quite promising.

Bai Ziqi's smile remained unchanged, but she was secretly despised in her heart.

Imperial Master Qingyang said she would do it "for Bejia", but why would she work for free?

Nian Zanli wanted to ask her to be a lobbyist, and the price would definitely be high. Just looking at the Nian General who has been selling houses and shops in Lingxu City for several months, and his property has shrunk by 30%, we know that he has been bleeding heavily to borrow troops, and I am afraid that most of it has gone into the pockets of Qingyang Imperial Master.

He could tell from the old medicine case that this woman was extremely greedy.

However, the emperor tried his best to protect her and even fell out with the gods twice.

In the past few days, the relationship between Lingxiao Palace and Tiangong has been tense and delicate, and even Bai Ziqi is trembling with fear. It was better for Qingyang Imperial Master to hide in Yang Palace and watch the tiger fight from a distance.

She is obviously the source of all this trouble.

Bai Ziqi said politely: "With the perspective of being a national master, what kind of sincerity can Nian Zanli show to impress you?"

"Sincerity?" Imperial Master Qingyang smiled slightly, "What does Bai Dushi mean?"

Facing the prisoners, Bai Ziqi simply said clearly: "If you borrow troops for him, what benefits will he give you?"

Who doesn’t know that Qingyang Imperial Master’s favor is the most valuable?

Imperial Master Qingyang slowly rubbed his thumb on the cup: "Why did Bai Duzhi suddenly ask about the New Year's Ceremony?"

People who know her well know that this is a thoughtful gesture on her part.

"Last night, the monster 'Snail Toad' controlled by Xi Yunhe suddenly appeared in the Nian Zanli warehouse, eating Prunella vulgaris."

"Oh?" Imperial Master Qingyang raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"You have admitted that the source of the divine blood is Dong Rui, and the snail toad was created by Dong Rui; the two recent events in Lingxu City are both related to the Nian Zanli." Bai Ziqi paused after saying this. After a pause, he said, "You, the person behind the scenes, have been arrested, so why is the Bu Lao drug case becoming more mysterious?"

Imperial Master Qingyang pondered: "Then, what do you say about Nian Zanli?"

"Of course he strongly denied it, saying that the mutation of the old oak tree on Xiangmai Street had nothing to do with him, and that the snail toad and prunella vulgaris had nothing to do with him. This was someone deliberately framing him." Bai Ziqi exhaled. He has handled countless cases, and few cases are like the case of the elixir, which can be linked to other incidents. "He even accused one person, thinking that this person was setting up to frame him."

Imperial Master Qingyang was also very interested: "Who?"

"The sect leader of Songyang Mansion, Li Qingge."

"Why?"

"He said that he originally had a handle on Li Qingge, but later Li asked Imperial Master Shuangye to mediate and took it back. Nian Zanli can no longer threaten her."

"He thought Li Qingge had a grudge and hurt him twice." Bai Ziqi asked her, "What do you think?"

"I have heard of Songyang Mansion, but I have never dealt with it, so I don't know much about it." There are as many small sects and sects operating in Lingxu City as crucian carp crossing the river. As the master of the Qing Palace, how could she possibly recognize everyone's faces?

She had heard the name "Songyang Mansion" before, and it was also because this sect was good at making weapons.

Qingyang Imperial Master's answer seemed to be a euphemism for "I don't know" at first glance, but if you think about it more deeply, it was actually taken out of the Songyang Mansion's old medicine records and said that there was no suspicion.

Since he has "never interacted with her", how could he be her accomplice?

She had made up her mind. At this time, Imperial Master Qingyang focused on one area of ​​slander and was unwilling to create additional problems.

Bai Ziqi understood and nodded: "In fact, although the Songyang Mansion sect originated from the Yuan Kingdom, it is actually one of the officials and businessmen of Lingxu City, but few people know it."

"Official merchants?" Imperial Master Qingyang was surprised, "What are you selling?"

"Pap beads."

Imperial Master Qingyang suddenly understood and let out a long sigh: "That's it."

The two words "jelly beads" are definitely the words in the immortal medicine case that can stir up the nerves of civilian monsters the most. It is an important raw material for refining the elixir. Cen Boqing and others secretly hunt monsters in order to refine the ointment beads.

The elixir that Lingxu City gave to the wise ministers and the demon kingdoms was of course also made from syrup beads. If the government wants to obtain this raw material, it must import it from abroad.

Apparently Songyangfu is one of the importers of pulp beads.

No matter how the Songyang Mansion obtained it, if it can help Lingxu City affix this import trademark, it will be valuable if it is a legal and qualified good businessman.

Will Lingxu City punish its own officials and merchants? It's not necessary. There are already so many targets for the common people's anger.

"Don't you know about the New Year's Praise?"

Bai Ziqi shrugged.

Accusations must have evidence, and accusing government and business partners in Lingxu City requires evidence even more.

Nian Zanli was anxious and angry, but could not produce any evidence.

"Then, what does Bai Duzhi think?" Imperial Master Qingyang asked him.

"The two consecutive incidents in Lingxu City involve the New Year's Ceremony. In terms of timing, it's too coincidental." Bai Ziqi also took a sip of wine, "How long has Snail Toad been missing? It's sooner or later, but yesterday Wan showed up at his warehouse. I wonder if someone wants to harm him? "

"So let me ask you." Bai Ziqi leaned forward and said seriously, "Is there any relationship between the Nian Praise Ceremony and the divine blood?"

Imperial Master Qingyang turned his head and stared at the last rays of the setting sun.

The natural light that shines into the prison will soon disappear.

Imperial Master Qingyang knew that her confession would determine the progress of the elixir case.

Should we close the case immediately, or continue to negotiate?

Should he continue to stay in the dungeon, or should he rush out and plan for the future?

She thought for a long time before she spoke slowly.

￥￥￥￥￥

He Lingchuan practiced swordsmanship for an hour, and only stopped when he was exhausted.

The Soul-Capture Mirror said, "You have made great progress, but you are also full of murderous aura."

When the master practiced swordsmanship, even it felt cold all over. This overflowing murderous aura, tut tut.

He Lingchuan hummed, quickly poured two basins of cold water on himself, and then wiped it with a towel.

The closer the day of action was, the more his heart surged and he couldn't help himself.

The frenzy was finally coming, and he started it himself. Every time he thought of this, he was full of fighting spirit, and had to vent it through martial arts practice.

In the past few days, he had to adjust his fighting spirit and physical strength to the best state.

The soul-catching mirror asked him, "You did a great job framing Nian Zanli. But aren't you worried?"

"What are you worried about?"

"What if Lingxu City doesn't think he has anything to do with the divine blood?" He looked so calm, and the soul-catching mirror felt that he was worried about others, and it was really the life of an old mother. "What if he is released, wouldn't your and Li Qingge's tricks be useless? Wouldn't he borrow soldiers to fight Yuan Country?"

The mirror said again, "There should be many smart people in Lingxu City. Let's not talk about others, just talk about Bai Ziqi, can't he see that Nian Zanli was framed?"

Even it felt that these two frame-ups were too obvious.

He Lingchuan confirmed that there was no one around, and then whispered, "If you are really a smart person, you should understand that it doesn't matter whether Nian Zanli was framed or not, and it doesn't matter who framed him."

"Ah?" The mirror was confused again. Ever since He Lingchuan followed up on the immortal medicine case, it often felt that its IQ was not enough. "Can you make it clear at once?" Don't make it look so stupid, okay?

"The person behind the immortality medicine case, Qingyang Guoshi, has been arrested. Lingxu City must confirm the source of the divine blood through her." He Lingchuan smiled, "Last time she pointed out Dong Rui."

"Yes, and she made you all flustered."

"But in fact, we all know that there is a 99% chance that a god is standing behind her." He Lingchuan said lightly, "If she doesn't want to give up this god, she has to find another definite source for the divine blood."

He emphasized the word "definite".

Mirror thought thoughtfully: "You mean, she will give false testimony and identify Nian Zanli? Oh, is there such a good thing?"

"Put yourself in her shoes, if I were her, I would identify her."

"Why?"

"When will the source of the divine blood be found, and the case can be closed." He Lingchuan said leisurely, "It has been delayed for so long, I think Lingxu City and the Demon Emperor are tired and can't wait to close the case. Including Qingyang State Master himself. But if she insists on testifying against Dong Rui, this is a vague figure, and no one knows where he is. Then when will this case come to an end?"

"Dong Rui, whose whereabouts are unknown, and Nian Zanli, who is right in front of her. Anyway, it's a false accusation, which one do you think she will choose?"

"Even if Lingxu City can ignore the questioning of ordinary people, the Fan Yao Kingdom, including Chiyan Kingdom and Baoshu Kingdom, is pursuing this case very closely. They all have their own purposes. Lingxu City must give an explanation as soon as possible, and this chapter can be considered turned over."

Mirror Zi was puzzled: "Do the gods want to be fooled like this?"

"Not necessarily." He Lingchuan pointed out, "But there is more than one god, I think they should have complicated relationships among themselves. Besides, the emperor's opinion is also very important. If he plans to close the case quickly, the gods may also give him some face?"

He paused and continued: "What's the difference between putting the crime on Dong Rui and on Nian Zanli? It's all nonsense anyway. The forces at the center of the vortex should all know that the real source of Qingyang State Master's divine blood will definitely not be found out."

"So, Qingyang State Master, the emperor, the Heavenly Palace, and even Bai Ziqi all hope to find the target and close the case as soon as possible." He Lingchuan looked up to the north, the stars were shining tonight, "I gave them the target and the suspect, do you think they won't take advantage of the situation?"

"So only Nian Zanli was injured, and everyone else was happy?" Mirror still found it incredible. Would the emperor and the Heavenly Palace pretend to be confused and fabricate a false case together?

"Who made Nian Zanli just an insignificant surrendered general? Framing him will not harm any party's power." He Lingchuan laughed sarcastically, "He deserves to be the scapegoat."

Mirror couldn't believe it: "When you went to borrow troops from Master Shuangye, did you plan all this?"

"It's more or less the same." It's a frame-up anyway.

Mirror sighed. Could these high-ranking bigwigs really follow He Lingchuan to frame Nian Zanli?
