Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 799 Reunion (2)
Bailichu looked at the spear and raised his hand as a signal.

Shuangbai immediately took out another square wooden box from the red sandalwood cabinet, put it on the table and opened it, revealing the dark steel Overlord Spear that was broken into two pieces inside. Blood stains clotted into a ball.

Shuangbai saw that his master, who was always obsessed with cleanliness, took off a glove and gently stroked the dirty gun body. His fingertips even trembled slightly, as if the blood on it was a thorn that would sting his hand. , His eyes.

A blurred, burning, and painful look gradually appeared in Bailichu's eyes, and he smiled softly: "Very well, soon, you will know that someone has seriously injured you, made your whereabouts unknown, or ...that person was me, and I got you into trouble."

The laughter was bleak and shadowy to the extreme.

Yibai and Shuangbai glanced at each other, and they both saw a heavy look in each other's eyes.

Since Lord Qiu disappeared during the siege of Qinzhou more than two months ago, after cleaning the battlefield, he finally found Lord Qiu's broken spear under the city wall, as well as the blood stains on the ground, His Highness was almost mad with heartache.

Originally, the scent of corpses could track Master Qiu's traces, but unexpectedly, there was a sudden autumn rainstorm, which lasted for seven days!
Reluctantly, His Highness tracked it to the Lancang River in southern Xinjiang based on the reaction of the Red Flame Gu and the faint scent of the corpse, but the Lancang River broke its embankment due to heavy rain, completely cutting off the possibility of tracking the scent of the corpse.

His Highness also passed out due to continuous searching for many days without sleep.

Before he fell into a coma, he hurriedly summoned the lamas and lamas, but after Zhou Yu rushed over with the lamas and lamas, more than ten days had passed.

When His Highness woke up again, it was still raining, and he stood quietly by the flooded Lancang River for a whole day and night, no one dared to go up to persuade him, because no one could come within a hundred meters of him.

Including the big and small lamas and any one of their crane guards, everyone was secretly worried.

Until dawn on the second day, the great lama was chanting scriptures and praying in the tent, and suddenly saw a wet phantom in front of him—His Highness no longer stood in the Lancang River in a daze, he only said two words—return to court.

So an hour after dawn, everyone set off to return to the dynasty.

Then, His Highness seemed to have regained his composure, no longer frantically looking for people himself, but issued orders one by one in an orderly manner.

The first is to clean up Longwei again; the second is to thoroughly investigate the rebellion in southern Xinjiang; the third is to detain Bai Nineteen.

Although Bai Jiu had already knelt in front of His Highness's tent to plead guilty, he firmly denied that his craftsmanship would break the Black Steel Spear, and was even willing to suffer the cruelest punishment from Hewei to prove his innocence and craftsmanship.

Bai Nineteen, who was supposed to be sentenced to death, finally saved his life, because His Highness ordered Bai to immediately bring a lot of money to Hehe to find the master casting master who made the black steel Overlord Spear back then, recast the spear, and thoroughly investigate the truth of the matter.

Xuansteel is rare, and it is famous for being able to press a thousand catties without bending, and forging weapons that are light in hand but extremely sharp.

It stands to reason that it cannot be easily broken.

If it's not that there is a problem with Bai Jiu's craftsmanship, then there are spies in the Crane Guard, and someone tampered with the Overlord Spear, so it must be re-forged for a new Overlord Spear and then checked.

Back then, the Overlord Spear was a treasure that was lavishly paid tribute to. His Highness actually planned to give it to Lord Qiu as a gift, but he never thought that it would lead to an accident on the battlefield, especially after listening to Baili Lingfeng's description of the critical situation at that time. .

Although His Highness has never said much, but seeing His Highness talking to himself today, they realized that the pain and self-blame had been tormenting His Highness's heart like a raging fire.

"Your Highness... Yun Ji's side, she is the one who provided the beads, do you want her to be checked with Bai Jiu?" Shuangbai hesitated for a moment.

When Master Qiu had an accident, Yunji and Yunqiao were also called in for questioning, but there seemed to be nothing unusual.

Moreover, they only provided orbs, which had already been smashed into powder by boulders. Unlike the Overlord Gun, which could retrieve the wreckage, the powder of the orbs could not be retrieved at all. Moreover, they had never touched the Overlord Gun, and there was no evidence to prove that they were related to the Overlord Gun. matter.

But for the sake of caution, he thought it was better to check together.

Bailichu caressed the broken Overlord Spear, and said in a cold voice, "She has also been dealing with a jeweler in Qinzhou City these days. You ask her to provide some of the same beads immediately, and only say that the palace wants to inlay belts and sachets. For the rest, there is no need to say much.”

Hearing this, Shuangbai couldn't help being taken aback. Hearing what His Highness meant, His Highness didn't intend to let Yun Ji join the school, but on the contrary, he seemed to have a grudge against Yun Ji and the others.

But Yun Ji has been loyal to His Highness for many years, not to mention that he does not believe that someone from Hewei will betray His Highness, so Shuang Bai couldn't help saying: "Your Highness, Yun Ji..."

"Shuangbai, before you speak, don't forget your identity as the head of the punishment hall." Bai Lichu closed the box containing the broken Overlord Spear, his voice was cold and serious.

Shuangbai was shocked immediately, the head of the punishment hall, the most important thing is to be ruthless and ruthless in executing punishments.

Yibai also looked at him quietly, without speaking.

He retracted his expression, then knelt down on one knee respectfully: "This subordinate is being reckless, so I'll go and complete the task."

After all, Yun Ji was one of the people involved, and she really should be investigated.

Baili Chu waved his hand, and Shuangbai immediately got up and retreated.

"Yun Ji, our family sees that you are not too young. The boys in the Fengxing Department, or the boys in the Crane Guard are all very good. Do you have a fancy?" Lao Zhen led Yun Ji all the way out. After getting out of the dungeon, he smiled while preparing the car for Bailichu's trip.

When Yunji heard this, her eyes flickered, then she lowered her eyes and said softly: "Yunji doesn't want to marry yet, and wants to serve her adoptive father for a few more years."

Lao Zhen stopped walking suddenly, lifted the whisk in his hand, and all the young eunuchs around took a few steps back.

He looked at Yun Ji, and his slender eyes flashed brightly: "Yun Ji, do you want to serve your adoptive father for a few more years or better serve His Highness for a few more years, so that His Highness can take over the house?"

When Yun Ji heard this, her expression froze for a moment, and then she turned her face away: "Father... Yun Ji won't be a concubine in this life, so I won't embarrass you."

Lao Zhen looked at Yun Ji, and his voice became colder and colder: "Is that so, you are arrogant, or you wait until His Highness can't find Qiu girl, and just let you be his wife?"

Yun Ji didn't speak, just lowered her eyes, and after a while she said softly: "Father...His Highness needs someone to take care of him, Lord Qiu is not by his side now, Yun Ji just wants to take care of him..."

"Yunji!" Lao Zhen interrupted her sharply: "It's been so many years, haven't you stopped your delusions? Are there some things you can imagine!"

Lao Zhen had never spoken so harshly to herself before, Yunji was stunned for a while, and then tears welled up in her eyes: "Father, Yunji is your daughter who was raised by you, so the love for so many years can't be compared with Is there an outsider?"
