Chapter 444 Counterfeit goods

Prince De was obviously very kind, and he laughed and said, "It's okay, since I'm a new governor, of course I want to meet him, and I will have to walk around a lot in the future, and I heard that Mr. Chu is very talented, and the book you wrote I never get tired of reading "Jiangshanhezhi", and I will make a special trip to ask some of this handed down work later, and I hope Master Chu can answer my questions."

Chu Xian's heart skipped a beat, and the secret thought came.

Although there are speculations in my heart, Chu Xian's acting skills are not covered. At this moment, he bowed and said: "Since Prince De has doubts, Chu Xian must know everything, and please wait in the study for a while. All the officials in Liangzhou met and got to know each other, and then they came to answer Prince De's question."

"Okay, Master Chu is busy first."

After Prince De finished speaking, he stepped into the study, and there were Prince De's guards outside the door. Chu Xian looked at the royal guards, then walked over to meet the officials.

Obviously, Liangzhou's sudden change of governor shocked the officialdom of Liangzhou. After all, it was so sudden that there was no warning at all.

Some people even speculated whether the previous governor Guo-son-in-law made a big mistake and was controlled?
Of course, guesses are guesses, and no one would ask foolishly.

As for the new governor, Chu Xian, he is also very famous. Many people know that Chu Xian was the county magistrate in Dinghai County, Liangzhou in his early years, and he made great achievements, so he greeted him with a smile. .

At this time, Chu Xian also knew that the current governor of Liangzhou is called Li Ji, and the Sima of the military mansion is Xia Yuan, both of whom took office a few years ago, including the governor Guo son-in-law.

This incident has to be traced back to the previous incident of the monster clan invasion. At that time, Chu Xian was only the county magistrate of Dinghai County. Because of the monster clan invasion, the three giants of Liangzhou, the governor Su Wenzheng, told the old man to return to his hometown. In fact, he was guarding the border , Chang Shi Gu Qingzhou and Sima Peng Sihai of the military government also surrendered their official positions and became county magistrates to guard one side.

It was because of this incident that the three top officials in Liangzhou were replaced.

Unexpectedly, in the past few years, the governor has changed suddenly. Compared with the stability of other states, the replacement speed of senior officials in Liangzhou is indeed too fast.

Li Ji and Xia Yuan have the obedience and stability of high-ranking officials. When they met Chu Xian, they were well-regulated and could not find any faults. For them, no matter who the governor is, they will work at a normal pace, and there will be no problems. A particularly big change.

Compared with these two, other officials are much more anxious.

The governor is the highest official in a state. For them, they have the power of life and death, especially the officials promoted by Mr. Guo before. At this moment, they are even more frightened. Replace them all.

If so, all the previous efforts and efforts will be in vain.

Fortunately, Chu Xian didn't have that kind of thought at all. Relying on his supernatural powers, Chu Xian memorized the names, positions and looks of all the officials, and even their reactions one by one.

"It's getting late today, so I won't disturb everyone's rest. Let's all go back. I'm new here, and I need your help in the future." Chu Xian said politely, and the officials were relieved, knowing that everything was fine for the time being.

After seeing off the officials, Chu Xian took a deep breath and walked towards the study.

The royal guards did not stop him, and let Chu Xian in. After entering, Chu Xian saw Prince De.

The Prince of Germany is waiting for himself now.

Knowing that Prince De is a fake, Chu Xian couldn't reveal it directly, so he still saluted and called him Prince De.

But at this time, Prince De waved his hand, and then cast a secret method, which actually released an isolation circle to isolate the entire study.

Then he said: "Lord Chu, I am waiting here under the order of Lord Zhongshu, and I will tell Lord Chu the ins and outs of what I know. I also ask Lord Chu to find out the truth about Prince De's disappearance as soon as possible."

Although the voice was still that of Prince De, the tone of voice was different.

Chu Xian secretly thought, it really is a fake.

now it's right.

If Prince De disappeared, it would immediately cause an uproar. After all, a living person, how could he say he couldn't find him?

So in order to reduce the impact, the above must find ways to 'cover up'.

This method is to make a counterfeit product.

Not to mention, this counterfeit is really powerful, even Chu Xian can't see any problems, after all, it was arranged by Xiao Yu Zhongshu, which means that this counterfeit must be someone who is very familiar with Prince De, otherwise it would be impossible The imitation is so vivid.

But obviously, this counterfeit is the best at being able to deceive the people below. If it really comes a month later, at the royal ceremony to pay homage to Taizong's ancestor, then if this counterfeit goes, it will definitely be exposed.

In other words, the only time I had to find out about this matter was this month, or in other words, less than a month.

The person pretending to be Prince De is obviously a Daoist, and he should be using a mask of some kind, not illusion. After all, if it is illusion, there are too many possibilities to be seen through.

This person began to tell the story, although the story was very fast, but it was very organized and clear, so in less than half an hour, Chu Xian already knew the general situation.

"Master Chu, these few days I will try to pretend to be Prince De, so as not to let others see the flaws. I also hope that you can find out the truth based on the clues as soon as possible. I am leaving."

After finishing speaking, the 'Prince De' stood up, then remembered something, and said: "If Mr. Chu has anything to ask me, you can directly send a trustworthy person to the palace. I know, and I will find a way to meet you. Yes, the matter of Prince De's disappearance is known to the entire Liangzhou only by the former governor, Mr. Guo, other than that, only you and me, no one else knows, please keep it a secret no matter what, Mr. Chu."

When the counterfeit left, Chu Xian sat on the chair and fell into deep thought for a while.

According to the clues he has now, Prince De disappeared last night, not in the palace, but in a very famous romantic place in Liangzhou.

Members of the royal family, because they have nothing to do and have no titles, so some of them have developed some bad habits.

This Prince De, in his fifties, is in his prime, but he likes to linger in the land of love and moon most, and he disappeared in that land of love and moon last night.

As for that place, it had already been checked by the impostors. There was nothing suspicious, and there was no dark room or secret passage.

A Daoist, it is very easy to confirm these things. With a sweep of the divine sense, let alone the secret passage in the dark room, even ants, cannot escape the consciousness of the divine sense. Since this imposter said no, it should be no , As for whether the other party would lie, Chu Xian also felt that the possibility was unlikely.

It's very simple, the other party belongs to Lord Zhongshu, who is Xiao Yu?

If you don't have special trust, how can you be installed here?How could it become a dark chess game to monitor Prince De.

"Wait a minute!" Chu Xian thought of an interesting thing at this moment.

"Master Zhongshu, why did you send dark chess to monitor Prince De?"

Chu Xian was certain before that there must be other things that Xiao Yu Zhongshu did not tell him, and it was estimated that they were some secret things, including why he wanted to monitor the royal family.

Surveillance means to be on guard.

Xiao Yu represents Shoufu Pavilion, so Shoufu Pavilion is on guard against the royal family.

The conflict between the royal family and the Shoufu Pavilion has been going on for a long time, and these Chu Xians are clear, but they did not expect that the conflict between the two parties has risen to this level.

It's already serious.

But, on the surface, you have to pretend to be kind and the world is at peace. This is like a game called the game of not being angry.Whoever gets angry first, whoever turns his face first, loses.

Chu Xian is not yet able to intervene in the secret affairs between the royal family and the Shoufu Pavilion, and he is not qualified to intervene. The disappearance of Prince De may be a conspiracy, or it may be an accident, but no matter what it is, it is important to him. It's not important, what's important is to find out the truth and find out Prince De, that's all.

Even from Chu Xian's point of view, this matter is extremely difficult to handle and extremely difficult to investigate. As for why this unlucky job fell on Chu Xian, Chu Xian analyzed it himself, and reckoned that he performed too well in the Criminal Division. Including the publication of "Deduction of Cases", it is simply a code of deduction, and it exists like a textbook. It is estimated that it is because of this that Xiao Yu Zhongshu made an impromptu decision to assign this task to himself after receiving the news at the court meeting.

And it is different from the investigation of the thirteen witch ancestors last time, this time, I am already the main force of Lord Zhongshu. Apart from Xiaoyu Zhongshu, I am afraid that other immortal officials of the first auxiliary pavilion also place their hopes on me.

Thinking of this, the pressure is huge.

But one month, how to check?
The time is short and the difficulty is high, so we can't make a big fanfare, even if we check, we have to do it quietly, let alone leak the news, just thinking about it makes us feel overwhelmed.

And just now Chu Xian has clearly asked about the 'fake' just now. Since the other party can pretend to be Prince De without being discovered by his family members, he must be very familiar with the circle around Prince De and Prince De himself, so Chu Xian asked , could it be that Prince De lost himself?

When Chu Xian asked this, there was also an implication, and the counterfeit answered very simply: "Even if it is, Prince De must be found, even if it is captured and tied up."

This meaning is very clear.

Of course, there is no need for Chu Xian to do the specific search. It is said that Prince De is also highly cultivated, second only to the realm of immortals, and powerful. Even if he wants to catch him, he probably doesn't have the ability. direction.

As long as you find the direction, you don't need to worry about Chu Xian, the dark power of the Shoufu Pavilion in Liangzhou will rush over, not to mention one Prince De, even ten of them can't stop it.

After figuring out what he was going to do, Chu Xian didn't want to explore the deeper secrets, such as the grievances between the royal family and the Shoufu Pavilion, such as the internal power struggle.

What Chu Xuan had to do was very simple, no matter whether Prince De hid himself or was kidnapped, he only needed to be found in the end.
