Xu Qi ‘an took out the secret letter he had prepared and placed it on the table.
Susu couldn’t wait to open it and read it over and over again. The tears in her eyes seemed to be getting more intense, but they couldn’t fall no matter what.
Tears were a strong emotional color, but they were not real.
Why would a ghost cry? that’s right, she couldn’t even cry for her family.
“How, how did my father make so many enemies? This, this is not logical.” Su Su said sorrowfully.
“The SU family’s case is extraordinary.” Li Miaozhen patted the paper maid’s shoulder and comforted her, ”
one of our reasons for coming to Beijing is to investigate your family’s case. Don’t worry, I’ll help you investigate the case from back then.
Xu Qi ‘an cupped his hands. thank you, flying Sparrow swordswoman. I’ll be waiting for good news.
Li Miaozhen immediately turned her head and glared at him.
Of course, she was just saying it casually to encourage susu. She couldn’t just rely on her for this kind of thing. Xu Qi ‘an had to be the leader.
This person just couldn’t bear to see her in the limelight.
“Thank you, Xu Yin … Young master Xu.” Li Miaozhen pouted.
I did promise you, but … Xu Qi ‘an looked embarrassed and said,
“I thought it was just a small case, but I didn’t expect it to involve so many people. Besides, I’m no longer Yin Gong, and I’m facing obstacles everywhere when investigating cases. I’m afraid .
“You want to go back on your word?” SuSu’s expression changed slightly.
“No,” Xu Qi ‘an shook his head and said in a deep voice, “I have to add more years.”
Zhong Li and Li Miaozhen didn’t react for a moment, but susu understood and lowered her head shyly, “”How, how long?”
“We’ll talk about it later,” Xu Qi ‘an said, keeping her in suspense.
He didn’t expect susu to really agree. Just now, he was just teasing the beautiful female ghost.
Just as they were talking, the gatekeeper old Zhang’s slightly panicked voice came from the courtyard, “”Eldest son, eldest son, the officials are here …”
When li Miaozhen heard this, she frowned, grabbed the flying sword on the table, and pushed the door open.
Xu Qi ‘an followed her out and happened to see a group of people entering the manor. The leader was a middle-aged man wearing the armor of the commander of the Imperial Army, followed by a dozen armored soldiers.
In addition, there were a few night watchmen accompanying him-the silver Gong Li Yuchun, the copper Gong song tingfeng, and Zhu guangxiao. The overbearing commander of the Imperial Army swept his sharp gaze across the inner courtyard and saw Chu Caiwei, Zhong Li, Li Miaozhen, and Chu Yuanyou from the celestial sect …
His gaze softened a little.
Xu Qi ‘an and Li Yuchun’s eyes met for a moment before they looked away. They didn’t talk much.
The Imperial Army commander placed one hand on the hilt of his saber and shouted, “”Xu Qi ‘an, I’m here to ask about the princess’s kidnapping by His
Majesty’s order. Please cooperate.”
Emperor Yuan jing is very concerned about the princess Consort. Even at this sensitive time, he still sent people to investigate me. This is enough to show that he values the princess Consort …
I have to deal with it well. Otherwise, it’s likely to break the current peace. If Emperor Yuan jing knows that I “hide” the princess Consort, he will definitely not let it go
Xu Qi ‘an nodded silently and said in a calm tone, “”What do you want to ask, general?”
I’ll have to trouble young master Xu to gather everyone in the residence, ” the commander of the Imperial Army said in a deep voice. also, this is not a good place to talk. Let’s go into the hall.
Xu Qi ‘an immediately asked the gatekeeper, old Zhang, to gather all the servants while he led the commander of the Imperial Army, Li Yuchun, song tingfeng, and Zhu guangxiao into the inner hall.
Because all the servants had been gathered in the courtyard, no one served tea. Xu Qi ‘an sat in the main seat and looked at the commander of the Imperial Army expressionlessly.
What kind of attitude was this? he was simply too arrogant … The Imperial
Army commander glanced at him and said with a stern face, ”
“His Majesty has already heard from the diplomatic mission about the princess’s kidnapping. However, there are still some details that we unknown. Please tell us the truth, young master Xu.”
Seeing Xu Qi ‘an nod, the commander of the Imperial Army continued, ” according to the description of the maidservant who was sent back to King Huai’s mansion, after the princess was captured, young master Xu caught up with the four barbarian leaders. Is that true? ” “Yes,” Xu Qi ‘an answered honestly.
“What happened after that?” the commander asked.
“Of course, I ran away. Does general think that I, a rank-6 martial artist, can fight against four rank-4 powerhouses? Even if I had the magic book bestowed upon me by the scholarly faction, I still wouldn’t be able to do it, right?” Xu Qi
‘an asked.
The Imperial Army commander did not refute this, tacitly agreeing, but he did not completely believe it. Narrowing his eyes, he asked, ”
“Since you know you are no match for him, why did Lord Xu chase after him?”
Xu Qi ‘an’s expression remained the same,”l didn’t know that there was a rank-4 powerhouse waiting for you.” The reason for chasing is to do the duty of an official and see if there is a chance to save the princess. When the matter can not be done, they will naturally stop.”
Do my duty as an official? In the entire imperial court, you’re the most unfilial son … The commander of the Imperial Army was silent for a few seconds before suddenly revealing a profound smile.
“It seems that no one has ever told you that the princess Consort is still alive? According to the maidservant’s description, the “Princess” had already died at the hands of the snake demon Hong Ling. How did Lord Xu know that the princess was still alive?”
When Xu Qi ‘an arrived, the take princess Consort had already died.
The envoy reported that the princess Consort had been taken away and her whereabouts were unknown because they had not seen this scene. Xu Qi ‘an clearly saw this scene at that time. According to his knowledge, the princess Consort should have died.
Now, Xu Qi ‘an was not surprised that the princess Consort was still alive. What did this mean?
Facing the questioning of the commander of the Imperial Army, Xu Qi ‘an also showed a meaningful smile. “It seems that no one has ever told you that I didn’t know that she was a fake princess Consort..”
