Too much fruit

Chapter 322 Truth and Lies
In the afternoon, a light rain suddenly came, and the patter of rain only accentuated the tranquility of the mansion's garden.

"Finally, I can meet the young master of the Jiang family. It's not easy."

Xiang Huaiyi and Feng Zheng were walking in the corridor when they heard their companion sighing with resentment and said in a low voice: "Be careful of trouble coming from your mouth. He is not only the current leader of the Jiang clan, but also the princess of Qingyue Princess." His fellow junior fellow student. Moreover, this is his residence, even my deputy seat of Nantiansi would not dare to act arrogantly when he comes."

Three days have passed since the opening of the Cave Heaven Paradise, which means that the fourth prince has been dead for three days.

Although the news of the Fourth Prince's death has not yet spread among the people, it has long been known to everyone among the upper echelons.

The death of the prince happened at the feet of the emperor. This was a huge event. Even if the prince had kept quiet for many years and was recently chased and beaten by the second prince, he was still the prince.

Nantiansi was immediately ordered to investigate, and Yinlusi's evil spirits were also secretly spreading, but their investigations were all stuck on a certain place, or a certain person.

——Jiang Li!
Jiang Li is one of the survivors who fell into the Paradise of Cave Heaven and came out safely, and is currently the only person who can investigate. Logically speaking, Nan Tiansi and Yin Lusi should have gone home early, and even asked Jiang Li to go to their respective offices. .

But Jiang Li has a background.

Tianxuan just said "need to recover" and turned everyone away. She had no intention of cooperating at all, but the people in the two departments were helpless.

It was only now, three days later, that because of Xiang Huaiyi's face, Nan Tiansi had the opportunity to meet Jiang Li.

After walking through the corridor, the two walked into the rain. The invisible energy barrier reflected the rainwater, and they came to a small pavilion by the lake.

"Nantian Si Xiang Huaiyi/Feng Zheng, you are polite."

Facing the figure in the small pavilion, the two of them clasped their fists and saluted, and the figure also sat and turned around at the same time.

"Mr. Xiangshu, it's been a long time."

Jiang Li chuckled and said, "I'm injured, so I'm being rude. I hope you both can respect me."

Wearing an elegant outfit, with a square face, and a richness as if carved from granite, one of the visitors was none other than Xiang Shu, who had met Jiang Li several times.

He is also a member of Nantiansi, and has the same status as Zuo Zhao, who died at the hands of Jiang Li. They are both important envoys of Nantiansi.

It was precisely because of Xiang Shushi's face and Jiang Li's success that he was willing to meet Nan Tiansi's people.

As for the other person, he was also wearing Nantiansi's elegant attire. He looked about 30 years old, had a short beard, was in the sixth level, and was slightly backward. He should be a close subordinate of Xiang Shushi.

In just one glance, Jiang Li had a basic understanding of Feng Zheng.

For the two of them, Jiang Li's current appearance was unexpected, but after thinking about it carefully, it was reasonable.

With his hair disheveled and plain clothes, his face was pale and his vitality was low. Sitting in a dark metal wheelchair, he looked like he was just recovering from a serious illness.

On the stone table next to the wheelchair, there is also a lotus-shaped incense burner, burning refreshing incense.

Looking at this situation, Jiang Li may not be able to recover in 30 days, let alone three days.

Xiang Huaiyi apologized and said: "I have to come because of my duties. If I have caused any inconvenience, I hope you will forgive me."

Half a year ago, Xiang Huaiyi would have never imagined that he would lower his profile in front of Jiang Li.

At that time, Jiang Li was just a little shrimp. Although he had already shown his prominence, he could only act as a silent observer in the conversation between Gongsun Qingyue and Xiang Huaiyi.

Now, Jiang Li is not only famous and famous all over the world, he is also Tianxuan's beloved disciple and a reserve son-in-law of the Gongsun family.

These two identities are very important!
"It doesn't matter, it's just a matter of words."

Jiang Li was very cooperative and didn't seem to be arrogant at all, which made Feng Zheng's resentment quietly disappear.

Maybe, he really didn't see other people just to heal his wounds...
This idea quietly appeared in Feng Zheng's mind.

"Thank you."

Xiang Huaiyi said, and took out a small jade statue of a strange beast from his sleeve. It was shaped like a cow, with one horn on its head and four legs like a bear. It was the jade statue of Xie Zhi. "This is a sixth-grade Taoist artifact, which can understand To identify lies, this is a serious matter, and our deputy director has ordered that this person must be present, so please forgive me."

Jiang Li also had the same Taoist weapon, which he obtained from Jiang Wuming, so he naturally knew its effects.

It can be said that Haechi Daoguo focuses all its uniqueness on distinguishing the truth from the false. Even if it is the fifth grade, the truth of the words must be detected.

There are ways to block the discernment of Haechi Dao Fruit, and with the strength of Elder Tianxuan, he can do it.

After all, Haechi Dao Fruit is only a sixth-grade Dao Fruit, and there is no way to make the fourth-grade Dao Fruit helpless.

If he was really that amazing, he wouldn't have bothered to find Jiang Zhuyun's subordinates lurking in the sect. He could just ask them one by one with the Haechi Taoist tools.

However, this Taoist weapon is also attached with other fourth-level secrets, which can cooperate with the Haezhi Taoist tool to detect the fluctuations of Jiang Li's soul and detect forgeries from another aspect.

A two-pronged approach can work wonders.

Xiang Huaiyi glanced at the jade statue in his hand, then placed it on the stone table in the pavilion and said, "Do you have any grudges between Your Excellency and the Fourth Prince?"

"Of course there are grievances," Jiang Li said calmly, "On the day when the fourth prince was assassinated with impunity, I was also in the Iron Pillar Temple, and personally sensed the fourth prince's energy, and noticed that he contained The fifth-grade Dao Fruit is the Three-Corpse Divine Dao Fruit of the Jiang family in Yun County. How can I have no resentment when the fourth prince harms my people?"

There is nothing unusual about the Xie Zhi jade statue. "Have you ever thought about killing the fourth prince for revenge?" Xiang Huaiyi asked immediately.

Hearing this, Jiang Li raised his eyes slightly and looked at Xiang Huaiyi.

Feng Zheng showed a look of astonishment.

You ask so directly, are you not afraid of offending people?

Xiang Huaiyi once said that trouble comes from the mouth, but he has forgotten it now.

Jiang Li looked at Xiang Huaiyi and said slowly: "I want to say no..."

The Xie Zhi jade statue immediately glowed red.

This is a lie.

"...That must be false," Jiang Li changed the topic, "As the leader recommended by the clan, of course I have thought about revenge for the clan. Yes, I have the intention to kill the fourth prince."

The Haechi jade statue returned to normal, the truth.

"Could the death of the fourth prince have something to do with you?" Xiang Huaiyi continued to ask.

"related."

Or the truth.

Feng Zheng and Xiang Huaiyi's expressions became extremely serious.

Jiang Li continued: "The fourth prince and Nan Tiansi Zuozhao intended to kill me and chased into Dunjia Tiandi outside the ginseng fruit tree. I defeated them with a trick. Zuozhao died. The fourth prince was seriously injured and escaped. But on the way, he encountered He was killed with impunity."

To be able to defeat two fifth-grade people, this...
When the two heard this, they both looked shocked. Then they heard that the fourth prince was killed with impunity. They were shocked, but also slightly relieved.

It’s better if it’s not this one.

As long as the fourth prince didn't die at the hands of Jiang Li, the situation wouldn't be serious.As for the left move, since you got involved in this whirlpool, you should be prepared to die.

If he died at the hands of others, Nan Tiansi might still ask for an explanation. Even if Zuozhao was the one who struck first, the murderer was Jiang Li...
Then you have to put it another way.

This is the value of Tianxuan’s beloved disciple and Gongsun’s son-in-law.

But Xiang Huaiyi still asked: "Did you expect that the fourth prince died at the hands of Wang Guan Yao, or... is there any connection between you and Wang Guang Yao?"

The murderer was already known, but Xiang Huaiyi looked like he was getting to the bottom of it, which made Feng Zheng next to him look surprised.

Wouldn't it be enough to know that the fourth prince didn't die in Jiang Li's hands?
Who cares if it has anything to do with Jiang Li.

Son-in-law and relatives are killing each other. This is their family matter. Is this something that outsiders can easily get involved in?
But Xiang Huaiyi just asked. Even though he had expressed goodwill to Gongsun Qingyue and Jiang Li and the two parties had some friendship, he still decided to get to the bottom of it.

Are you really determined to find out the truth?

Or is it a warning from behind the scenes?
Jiang Li's face was calm and he spoke slowly, without any embarrassment or uneasiness. He just said calmly: "I have nothing to do with the lawless people, and I couldn't have expected that the fourth prince would meet him when he was escaping. He died at his hands."

Xiang Huaiyi and Feng Zheng looked at the Haizhi jade statue at the same time.

There is nothing unusual about the jade statue, that’s the truth!
The tense atmosphere seemed to relax with this look, and there was obvious relaxation on Feng Zheng's face.

"Have you finished asking? Please come back after you finish asking." Jiang Li issued the eviction order without hesitation.

Xiang Huaiyi also knew that he had exhausted all the friendship he had. He put away the jade statue of Xiezhi, cupped his fists and said: "One more thing, the fruit of Zuo Zhao must have fallen into your hands. Deputy of this department I have something to say, and I am willing to pay the price to get back the Xingri Horse Dao Fruit from Your Excellency."

This is a fifth-grade Dao fruit. If you can get it back, you will naturally get it back.

"I have given this item to my master. If you are interested in trading it, please ask your deputy to discuss it with my master. I won't give it away," Jiang Li said.

······
······
On the way back, Feng Zheng reminded him in a low voice: "Envoy, are you a little aggressive this time?"

He hesitated before using the word "aggressive".

Even if you want to target, you have to make indirect innuendo, so direct, that is what a young boy can do. Xiang Huaiyi can be the chief minister in Nantian Division, it should not be like this.

Xiang Huaiyi was in a daze, as if he was wandering in another world. He suddenly realized what he said when he heard Feng Zhengzhi's words.

However, he didn't feel anything was wrong. He just smiled bitterly and said, "I'm just doing my duty faithfully."

As he spoke, he held the jade statue of Xie Zhi in his sleeve with his right hand, and his ears moved slightly.

'The Xiezhi Jade Statue didn't notice the lie, Jiang Li's soul fluctuated no abnormally, and his heartbeat... although it accelerated, it was mainly due to his anger when I asked the question. Thanks, Shunfeng didn't hear any unnecessary abnormalities. '

'The fact that he is at large should have nothing to do with him. '

　First more.
