No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 556
Luo Jinyan and the three came out of the stockade in Hongshanbu, and not far away, they saw Zeng Wei rushing with a group of people.

Seeing Luo Jinyan let out a heavy sigh of Zeng Wei, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Lord Luo, are you alright?"

Luo Jinyan said indifferently: "Thank you Master Zeng for your concern, everything is fine. You are..."

Zeng Wei wiped off his sweat with some shame. Compared with Luo Jinyan's calmness, he seemed a little too restless.

As soon as he heard that Luo Jinyan was taken away by people from the Hongshan Department, Zeng Wei immediately rushed over with his people, fearing that something might happen to Luo Jinyan in southern Xinjiang.Seeing that he was safe and sound at this time, he was naturally greatly relieved, "Master Luo, people from the Hongshan Department..."

Luo Jinyan waved his hands and said, "We'll talk about it when we go back."

Back at Xuanwei Mission's Mansion, Zeng Wei was so shocked by Luo Jinyan's words that he almost jumped up before he had time to take a sip of tea.

"Sang Pu's illegitimate son killed Sang Pu and Sangye, and controlled Sang Kun? How is this possible?!" Zeng Wei couldn't help crying.

Luo Jinyan raised his eyebrows and said nothing. He also felt that the truth was fantastic.

Zeng Wei paced back and forth in the hall uncontrollably, "How could this be? How is this possible? If Sangpu died because of this, then why did the patriarchs of the Guhe and Qiuci tribes do it? Could it be the illegitimate son of Nanjiang? Are we all in an alliance?"

Luo Jinyan narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Look at the girl's temper, if she is really angry because of her father's death, she won't wait until this time to come, I'm afraid she would dare to rush in in broad daylight. What's more... I If the guess is correct, there are no such people among the people guarding outside during the day. They came here suddenly tonight."

"Lord Luo said so." Zeng Wei smiled apologetically, "It's just that... the official still has some friendship with the young patriarch of the Qiuci tribe, and that girl is the younger sister of the young patriarch, and she has recently lost her father. Please take a look at it, Mr. Luo." For the sake of her youth and ignorance and her father and brother, spare his life."

"What does Qiu Cibu have to say?" Luo Jinyan asked.

Luo Jinyan was not angry, and asked, "Are you from the Qiu Ci Department?"

This was originally the voice of their enemies, but at this moment, in the eyes of the few people, it was as joyful as the nectar after a long drought.

It seemed that the youngest boy almost cried out.

Zeng Wei thought to himself: "You are not just trying to scare the monkeys."

"Lord Luo."

This remark immediately received angry looks from several people in Nanjiang. In the eyes of people in Nanjiang, they used poison and Gu to plot against them. These are not heretics.

Luo Jinyan said: "Since he dares to look for me, he will not be unclear about the procedures required by the court. I am not trying to perfunctory him. Even if I am, he may not really know."

Luo Jinyan put down the book, raised his head and said, "I don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth, it can be seen that he is used to messing around."

Luo Jinyan nodded and asked, "Is anyone injured?"

Luo Jinyan said: "Master Zeng, don't worry, Young Master Qiu Ci will be fine."

Luo Jinyan said: "Master Zeng, you are too kind to let these people act so boldly. For these people who don't know how to behave, you should use thunderous means to kill chickens to scare monkeys!"

"Let go of me! How dare you! This girl is going to kill you! And you!" The girl turned to look at Luo Jinyan who was standing under the eaves, "This girl will definitely kill you!"

Luo Jinyan's identity is indeed special, but no matter how special it is, it is a private identity.

Zeng Wei was taken aback, "My lord thinks someone is instigating him?"

Zeng Wei hesitated for a moment, and tentatively said: "Why don't you lock them up first, and then go to the Qiu Ci Department tomorrow after being dismissed as an official, and ask the Qiu Ci Department for an explanation?"

"A few people were injured. These people's martial arts are not very good, but they only know how to use some heresy ways."

Seeing what Luo Jin said, the guard didn't hesitate anymore, and went out with the girl in his hand.

Five people knelt on the ground, with hatred and anger written all over their eyes and faces, as if Luo Jinyan was some heinous villain.

The two guards picked up the girl from left to right and walked out. The girl was so frightened that she kept kicking her legs, but it was of no avail.

Luo Jinyan did not go back to his room to sleep, but sat in the study and read a book.

Zeng Wei said: "It's not a fool that Setu can control the Hongshan Department. If you want to perfunctory him, I'm afraid you won't be able to."

Although he and the young patriarch of the Qiuci clan have not known each other for a long time, they have some friendship, and after the accident, the other party is the only person in southern Xinjiang who is willing to trust him.

Zeng Wei sighed and said, "Now there are still the chief elders of the clan, so there is no trouble. But according to this situation, I'm afraid it won't last long."

On the bright side, his current identity is Governor Huaining.

A few young people who were not very old at all, and forced their way into the Xuan Comfort Mansion with their blood and anger, listened to Luo Jinyan's words, and felt their scalps go numb and dare not reply back. How could there be such arrogance just now?

Being woken up in the middle of the night, Luo Jinyan was not in a good mood.

Luo Jinyan lowered his head and thought about it, the others did not dare to speak, and could only quietly wait for his decision.

Luo Jinyan stared at the slightly flickering candlelight in front of him, and thoughtfully said: "Master Zeng, before we go to Qiuci, ask the girl who made Ye Chuangxuanwei's mansion."

Luo Jinyan still ignored it.

"So what!" One of the seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls asked, staring at Luo Jinyan.

Zeng Wei sighed and said, "I didn't see the young patriarch, but his cronies sent me a message. I hope we can find out about this situation as soon as possible, otherwise Qiu Ci's internal affairs may be overwhelmed."

The faces of the four people who were escorted to kneel on the ground changed drastically, and they looked in the direction of the door with a hint of despair in their eyes.

Luo Jinyan smiled lightly: "It's really unreliable." Vested interests help the suspect to clear his name, which sounds like a conspiracy between the two parties.

Zeng Wei came in a hurry when he heard the news, and when he saw Luo Jinyan's men beheading the little princess from Qiu Cibu for questioning, he almost lost his breath in fright.

The courtyard quickly returned to tranquility.

Luo Jinyan ignored these people, turned around and went back to the room.

How dare the daughter of a small tribal patriarch call herself a princess?

Seeing this, the other four were also anxious, and one of the teenagers hurriedly said: "You can't kill her! She is the daughter of our patriarch! She is the princess of our Qiuci clan!"

Using this identity as an endorsement for Setu, even if the court agrees to it afterwards, people in southern Xinjiang may not buy it.

In his opinion, the girl might not be able to do that kind of thing herself, so he didn't think about it for a while.

"What are you doing?! Let go of this girl! Let go of me!"

After being silent for a while, Zeng Weicai said: "Lord Luo, what you mean is that we supported Setu to ascend to the position of patriarch, and he came forward to clear my name? Do you think...is this reliable?"

Master Zeng is good at everything, and his ability is actually not weak.

Zeng Wei hurriedly said: "Where is it? It is the incompetence of the Xuanwei Mansion that disturbed Mr. Luo. Thanks to everyone under Mr. Luo's command, otherwise I am afraid tonight..." Zeng Wei smiled helplessly, knowing without thinking, these People must come for him.

Zeng Wei sighed, and said: "That girl is the youngest daughter of the old patriarch, and she was born to the same mother as the young patriarch today. She has a bit of a temper, but she hasn't done anything bad other than that. This time too. …Your Excellency will go to Qiuci in person tomorrow?”

Luo Jinyan said: "These few people trespassed on Xuanwei's mansion and despised the majesty of the imperial court. Master Zeng thinks how should we deal with it?"

Luo Jinyan's expression was indifferent, and he didn't even give her the corner of his eye.

They were obviously not reconciled, even though they were forced to kneel on the ground, they still struggled endlessly.

Luo Er nodded his head and waved his hand to signal the guards to push him down.

Seeing the door of his room close, Zeng Weicai sighed softly, and said to the other people in the yard: "Excuse me, put these people in the dungeon first, and deal with them tomorrow."

As soon as he put on his clothes and went out, he saw a few young men and women kneeling in the yard in some embarrassment under the dim light of the fire, being escorted by the guards.

Killing the little princess of the Qiuci clan at this time, isn't this forcing the Qiuci people to turn against them?
Zeng Wei repeatedly persuaded the guards, and when he went in to intercede, don't kill anyone before rushing in.

"Wait! Keep someone under your command!" Zeng Wei's voice sounded outside the door.

"Young master." Luo Er stepped forward, glanced at the people on the ground with a bad look, and said: "These people broke into the Xuanwei envoy's mansion at night."

Luo Jinyan said coldly: "Trespassing on Xuanwei's mansion without authorization, no one from the Qiuci clan has taught you, what is this crime?"

Under the dim light of the fire, the girl's eyes were shining brightly, and her beautiful face could still be vaguely seen.

"Do you dare?!" The girl's voice was sharp and short, and seeing the guards who were holding her pull her up from the ground, she couldn't help but feel a little panic in her eyes.

Luo Jinyan said: "Miss Qiu Ci Clan broke into the official's mansion at night, intending to assassinate, isn't it worth asking us in person?"

Zeng Wei wanted to ask again, but Luo Jinyan didn't say anything more.

"Master Luo, you scared the little girl quite a lot." Zeng Wei couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic when he thought of the little girl being pushed down, her legs were weak and tears were streaming down her face.

After finishing the order, Luo Jinyan looked at the few people kneeling on the ground.They are all young people in their teens and 20s, three men and two women.

Zeng Wei obviously knew that he had this problem, so when Luo Jinyan opened his mouth, he immediately shut up, walked back to his seat and sat down.

It's not that he is playing tricks on purpose, but that he has no idea about some things.

Zeng Wei was grateful in his heart, and naturally he didn't want anything to happen to the other party.

"Master Zeng." Luo Jinyan called helplessly.

Luo Jinyan stood with his hands behind his back, and said calmly, "I've disturbed Mr. Zeng."

It's just that he likes to babble when he is in a hurry, which really makes people feel helpless.

Princess?

Luo Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked down at the girl.

The girl froze for a moment, and quickly said confidently: "That consolation envoy killed our patriarch, and we are avenging the patriarch, what's wrong!"

In comparison, Zeng Wei's identity was even more legitimate.It's a pity that Zeng Wei didn't have the prestige of Lingchuan Hou when he first arrived, and now he is charged with a murderer, so it's useless to say anything.

However, the more he understood, Zeng Wei's brows frowned even tighter.

Zeng Wei said, "Your Excellency said so."

Even if the Qiu Ci Department can seek justice for them afterwards, they will not be able to survive after death.

Seeing this, the other four also struggled to come over to help.It's a pity that they have all been reduced to prisoners at this time, how can they save others?

"Master Luo, what do you mean?"

In fact, it is easy to recognize. Although they are all from southern Xinjiang, the styles of clothing, totems and even jewelry are different for each tribe in southern Xinjiang.

Luo Jinyan was thoughtful, "Chief Qiu Ci believes that you have nothing to do with the killing of the patriarch, but the rest of the clan don't believe it?"

The girl gritted her teeth and said, "It was him! Why do you say otherwise?"

Zeng Wei pushed the door open and came in, not surprised to see Luo Jinyan sitting upright.

Hearing what Luo Jinyan said, Zeng Wei felt a little relieved.

It's just that the Xuanwei Mission's Mansion not only has the original guards, but also the soldiers and guards brought by Luo Jinyan. It is no surprise that several people from southern Xinjiang were caught.

At this time, they may finally understand that no matter what their identities are, they are nothing in the eyes of people who don't look at their identities.

Although Luo Jinyan is much younger than him, his position level is far above him, and the power and information he can grasp are not what he can have.Ever since Luo Jinyan came to southern Xinjiang to help regardless of his own safety, Zeng Wei couldn't help but follow Luo Jinyan's lead.

"The brothers and sons of the old patriarch are also very enthusiastic. There seems to be a rumor that whoever can avenge the old patriarch can inherit the position of patriarch."

Luo Jinyan nodded, "Let me take care of you."

So young people are short of beatings.

Luo Jinyan sneered and said, "Revenge? Does the Qiu Ci Department have any evidence to prove that Lord Zeng killed the old patriarch?"

Obviously, these people had no intention of hiding, so Luo Jinyan recognized them at a glance.

The people from Nanjiang staring outside the Xuanwei Mansion really couldn't bear it anymore. That night, some people couldn't help but want to break into the mansion to assassinate Zeng Wei.

Luo Jinyan said: "Since Setu has made this request, it doesn't matter if you agree first. Anyway... neither you nor I can be the master of the court."

After a while, Luo Jinyan raised his head and said, "Since Mr. Zeng said so, I naturally want to give Mr. Zeng this face. Let Mr. Zeng deal with these people, but... only this time."

Luo Jinyan glanced at the few people kneeling on the ground, and said slowly: "If you bump into my hands next time, you will be killed!"

Zeng Wei nodded and said: "Our people in Qiuci have also sent back news that the situation in the Qiuci clan is not good these two days. Some people spread rumors that the young patriarch is biased towards the Central Plains people, ignoring his father's revenge. Even Some people even instigated people from the Qiu Ci tribe to directly rush into Xuanwei Shi's mansion to avenge the old patriarch."

Luo Jinyan didn't talk nonsense with her, and said in a cold voice: "Whether it is true or not, it is a serious crime to trespass on the Xuanwei Mission's mansion! Come here, pull it out and chop it up, as a warning to others!"

Zeng Wei pondered for a while, and somewhat understood what Luo Jinyan meant.

"Patriarch Qiu Ci has been dead for several days, and she is suddenly impulsive at this time, bringing people to avenge her father in the middle of the night?"

Zeng Wei understood what Luo Jinyan meant, and immediately said, "Your officer understands, Master Luo is at ease."

This time, it was obvious that someone deliberately blamed it, and it is not surprising that someone instigated and intensified the relationship between the court and the Qiuci Ministry.

That little girl was probably taken advantage of by someone.
