I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 261: Do Daxing and Daomen have any grudge?
  The palace was attacked late at night, and the rebel was still the Imperial City Division.

After this news was leaked, many people stayed up all night, fearing a turmoil and changing the emperor.

Such a strange atmosphere also affected the Tsing Yi Department.

Cao An slept carefree until he woke up naturally, but as soon as he walked out, he saw the Tsing Yi Department gathered in the living room.

"What's wrong with everyone?" Cao An asked a little strangely.

According to the custom of the Tsing Yi Department, we never think about problems that we can't figure out.

Everyone was neat and tidy this early in the morning. Could it be that the collective had changed their temper and started to worry about the situation in the court?
  "Alas~~ Ever since you appeared, our Tsing Yi Department has been surrounded by people. I have received more than thirty visiting officials this morning. Even after drinking morning tea, my ears are buzzing."

Zhu Xian complained on the side. When he saw Cao An coming out, he knew that he didn't have to be bothered anymore, so he took out the pancakes and started to eat them with peace of mind.

The court was in turmoil, the [Imperial Law] disappeared, and the Tsing Yi Department undoubtedly became Daxing's highest combat force.

There are a lot of people outside, just waiting for Cao An and the others to leak the news and choose to take sides.

If it were anyone else, Ying Changfeng might not care much.

"But Pang Hong came quietly early in the morning and refused to leave until he died in the side hall. I heard that you scared his son last night?"

"No way, I'm just telling the truth."

"What did you say?"

"Just say that Emperor Wan Jing's energy is exhausted, so let him run away as soon as possible."

Everyone:...

Pang Hong is Pang Shi's biological father, the contemporary Imperial City Envoy, the top leader of the Imperial City Department, and an absolute confidant of Emperor Wan Jing.

Now that you suddenly told them that their master was dead, it was strange that they were not in a hurry.

"If he is in a hurry, let him come in directly and I will tell him the reason face to face." Cao An also sat down, drinking tea and eating cakes, preparing to give a direct answer.

Anyway, everyone in the department is his own people, and Cao An always wants to explain the situation, so let's just talk about it together.

Zhu Xian quickly brought the person, wrapped in a black robe and even wearing a mask. The appearance of the Imperial City Secretary in the Tsing Yi Department could easily arouse suspicion, so it was better to keep a low profile.

After taking off the cover, Pang Hong looked at Cao An helplessly: "Cao Shuixiu, your words last night kept my son awake all night!"

Cao An chuckled: "It's better to stay up all night than to sleep forever. If I hadn't seen Pang Shi as a good person, I wouldn't have bothered to warn him."

Pang Hong was silent for a moment: "Your Majesty, are you really exhausted?"

"Really, there's nothing we can do about it."

Cao An's affirmation made everyone's atmosphere solemn.

Everyone knows that Cao An's decision at this moment may affect the lifeline of the entire Daxing Dynasty.

Whoever he sides with will be the next emperor.

Zhu Xian glanced at the information he had just received: "It is said that last night, Emperor Wan Jing subdued more than a dozen masters with one move. It is said that he is invincible in the palace. Is this wrong?"

"Ha, that's so wrong." Cao An sneered: "If he hadn't forced himself to show off the saint last night, I wouldn't have judged his deadline so quickly."

"How do you say it? Is there any other way to support the manifestation of the saint?"

"Of course, take a look at the information and see for yourself what clothes Emperor Wan Jing wore last night."

"The glowing golden crown, the dragon-patterned robe, the divine jade of heaven and earth...are there any questions?"

"Of course there is a problem. You would wear these to sleep in the middle of the night?"

"..."

Emperor Wan Jing last night looked indeed radiant, but if you think about it carefully, he was also full of tricks.

When Cao An discovered the evil spirit, it happened to be when Tie Shou went crazy.

He and Pangshi rushed over immediately. At that time, even the reinforcements from the Imperial Guard were not yet ready.

But Pang Shi only made five moves in a hurry, and Emperor Wan Jing drove from the harem to the prison. Do you think it is possible?
  When there is a rebellion, the Imperial City Secretary and the imperial guards will work together to respond to the enemy, and only when there is a major change, will they report it to the emperor.

In such a short time, Emperor Wan Jing was able to appear in full gear, and there was only one answer.

"Emperor Wan Jing stayed up all night. Wearing that treasure, he was waiting for something to happen, and then rushed over to suppress it." Beside him, Liang Qifeng, the chief minister, frowned: "Cao An, is it possible that he arranged this incident? The purpose is to test? "

The dark expression, coupled with the dark suspicion, made Pang Hong nervous.

If Emperor Wan Jing sets up a test, then the target can only be their Pang family.

Could it be that the last assassination incident made Emperor Wan Jing distrust them?
  "Probably not." Cao An shook his head and said: "The situation in the imperial court is currently in turmoil. If he devises such a trick again, if an accident occurs, it will only be more troublesome."

"But he came with the imperial guards, and it looked like he was guarding the Imperial City!" Liang Qifeng was an upright person, and he pointed his finger at Pang Hong, who looked ugly.

Regardless of whether the turmoil last night was arranged by Emperor Wan Jing.

At least it proved that he had been prepared in advance, and that he had left the Imperial City Division alone and dispatched the imperial guards to prepare.

Isn't it revealing some signal?
  Cao An smiled slightly: "Actually, as long as you prove one thing, everything will make sense."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"I heard that the reason why the Pang family is loyal to the Holy Emperor is because they were coerced?" Cao An said and looked at Pang Hong.

The information learned from Mo Xiaoming yesterday is crucial to the entire case.

Without this news, Cao An couldn't deduce the key points.

Pang Hong struggled for a moment, nodded and said: "It is true that we have been planted with poisonous insects. Once it detonates, we will lose all our skills and even die on the spot."

"What! There is such a thing!" Zhu Xian was shocked and quickly took out his small notebook to record it.

"No wonder, Emperor Wan Jing knocked down more than a dozen people last night with just a wave of his hand. It turned out to be a bluff!"

Emperor Wan Jing's energy was exhausted. Cao An did not make this judgment out of thin air.

Dressed in treasures in the middle of the night and ready to fight at any time, it proved that he was already guilty.

And he clearly had all the treasures, and the blessing brought him down to the top, but his roar when he arrived only shocked everyone's mind, not even as good as Sanyang's lion's roar, which shows that he is strong on the outside but powerful on the inside.

After that, he used a secret method to detonate the poisonous insects, and then deliberately said "my palace", just to spread rumors, pretend that he was invincible in the palace, and scare the enemy.

"He is now risking his face to win over me, which proves that he has no way out. Even his last trump card is out of control."

"True card? What kind of trump card?"

"The prison in the imperial palace, what is imprisoned there, should be the last secret of the entire Daxing, and it is also the secret of controlling the Imperial City Division."

As an emperor, Wan Jingdi couldn't even practice his own "Huanglong Jue" well, let alone master the Gu technique.

When all high-ranking officials of the Imperial City Department join their posts, they will be controlled by Emperor Wan Jing's poison, which must have come from outside.

Pang Hong heard Cao An's speculation and instantly understood the key.

"In the history of Daxing, there has never been a master of Gu, so that person is probably imprisoned in the palace prison.

“That place has always been under the control of the Forbidden Army because they were worried that our Imperial City Division would approach and discover the secret.

"And Tie Shou went crazy last night, also near the Tianlao!"

All the smart people present understood the problem immediately.

Why did Emperor Wan Jing know that the crisis was coming?
  Because the jade seal he lost is the key to unlocking the Tianlao formation.

Last night, someone unlocked the restrictions in the sky prison, allowing the prisoners inside to use secret techniques, and in turn used the Gu insects to control Iron Hand and the others to rob the prison.

Emperor Wan Jing had guessed this, so he slept with his clothes on last night, waiting for something unexpected to happen.

Unfortunately, the enemy is not stupid either. It was just a tentative rescue last night, and Emperor Wan Jing missed it. Now he is afraid that he will have trouble sleeping and eating again.

"Besides, this is not the most important thing." Cao An poured himself a cup of tea and dropped another bombshell.

"This time I boarded the holy ship and met many Taoist masters. They asked me something."

"What's the matter?"

"They asked me, why did Daxing block the East China Sea? Do Daxing and Daomen have any enmity?"

Everyone:? ? ?
