After the immortal disappeared

Zhong Sunmou took the mirror and turned it over and over to examine it. His hands were stained with egg liquid, and he was marked as the target of the snail toad.

Of course, so did He Lingchuan, but after leaving the tower, he quickly washed his hands and mirror, and ran away in a small boat.

Therefore, it is important to wash your hands frequently afterward.

As a double insurance, He Lingchuan got in touch with Mai Xuewen yesterday.

He took out the snail toad egg in front of Mai Xuewen's puppet, and both parties determined one thing:

He Lingchuan confirmed that Mai Xuewen and Snail Chan were still in Baisha.

And Mai Xuewen was sure that He Lingchuan knew the consequences of crushing the snail toad eggs, because this special envoy must have interrogated Wan Song.

So as long as there is any movement of the snail toad this morning, Mai Xuewen will most likely be able to guess who is summoning it.

Under his conscious control, Snail Toad will not eat the wrong person.

It can be said that after the meeting between the two parties last night, Zhongsun Mou's fate was basically doomed.

He Lingchuan was willing to sacrifice his life in exchange for his own initiative in this case. After staying with He Chunhua for so long, he already understood one thing:

The evidence presented to others must be aboveboard and able to withstand scrutiny.

But the process and means of obtaining evidence may not be.

As for killing Zhong Sunmou to vent his anger, he would definitely not admit it.

Young Master He is tolerant and generous, how can he care about the little holiday?

The only trouble here is that he might also be under suspicion. After all, Zhongsun Mou's death was beneficial to him.

But He Lingchuan had an alibi, and the witnesses even included Fan Sheng, the deputy commander of the Tongxin Guards.

This is the strongest witness.

Moreover, He Lingchuan had another important purpose in luring Fan Sheng to the Lotus Palace, which was to lure away this guy with explosive force and increase Snail Toad's success rate in committing crimes.

Otherwise, with Fan Sheng by his side, would Snail Toad be able to escape smoothly? He Lingchuan didn't know for sure, but it was always a good thing that Fan Sheng wasn't there.

You must know that Snail Chan was seriously injured by He Lingchuan earlier. It has only been a few days and there is a high probability that the injury has not recovered yet.

Therefore, the biggest difficulty in this plan lies in Fan Sheng.

He Lingchuan must come back alive from Fan Sheng's ax first, otherwise everything will be in vain.

For this battle of just ten seconds, he really worked hard and rehearsed it for two days and two nights.

Fan Sheng's force was strong and he also had Yuan Li to help him. The main point of He Lingchuan's battle this time was to try to avoid a head-on confrontation with him.

The three-headed spider just now was the Blood Fang Guard summoned with the essence and blood given by Zhu Erniang, integrating attack, defense and medicine.

In this environment, they are all human shields and cannon fodder, attracting Fan Sheng's attention and restricting his actions.

Besides, he also quietly inquired from Xiang Yan that Fan Sheng's water quality seemed to be very ordinary, because two years ago, a woman fell into the water. Although Fan Sheng went into the water to save her, he vomited water for a long time after landing and choked to death.

Therefore, He Palace is indeed a good place to face Fan Sheng.

He believed that Fan Sheng had never planned so much when he jumped off the Chaohu Tower to pursue him.

He Lingchuan even made several plans and prepared several backup plans. But Fan Sheng didn't use any magic weapon from beginning to end. After being bound by the spider web, he couldn't use it. Who can blame him?

About two-quarters of an hour later, there was a knock on the door.

"Carriages were lined up at the back door of Cen's mansion and boxes were piled up." Lu Dutong came straight to the point, "Cen Boqing is running away!"

"Can't stop it?"

"I have sent people to surround them, but Cen Boqing led more than a dozen guards to charge into them on horseback, and even drew their swords and whipped them. My people did not dare to take action."

After all, the other party is an official of Lingxu City. If anything goes wrong during the confrontation, no top soldier in Chiyan Kingdom would dare to take the responsibility.

While He Lingchuan was pondering, there was a fluttering sound on the window sill.

The two of them looked back, but they saw the goshawk landing, breathing rapidly with its mouth open. It seemed that it was flying very fast and urgently.

"Coming, coming!" it said to He Lingchuan, "We've crossed the street, hurry up and greet him!"

"You're here just in time, what a welcome!" He Lingchuan finally relaxed and laughed heartily, "Tell him to go to the back door of the Cen Mansion and meet me!"

"..." Goshawk couldn't help but roll his eyes. Not to mention panting, he didn't even take a sip of water, and he had to fly to inform again.

￥￥￥￥￥

The soldiers brought by Lu Dutong surrounded Cen's mansion.

Cen Boqing led his men to clear the way ahead, but the Chiyan soldiers did not dare to take action and had to form a human wall to block them.

The guards and servants of the Cen Mansion pushed and shoved her with all their strength, and they finally squeezed out of the human wall.

As long as he leaves Bai Shali, no one will be able to hold him accountable.

Cen Boqing was already sneering in his heart, thinking about how to deal with these people after returning to Lingxu City. The person surnamed He must not be spared, as well as Lu Dutong who is ignorant of current affairs, and Tian County Magistrate who violates the rule of law.

At this moment, more than a hundred riders rushed out from the corner of the street, riding towards Cen's mansion.

He shouted and shouted all the way, as if there was no one around.

If civilians fail to move out of the way, they will be pushed aside by the invisible force, and if they are unlucky, they will hit their faces against the wall.

Even the rich young masters from the families of senior officials in Lingxu City rarely have this style and arrogance in Baishaqian.

The one who was running at the front arrived before anyone else arrived, and let out a long laugh:

"Cen Boqing, where are you going?"

Cen Boqing also saw him clearly, and in shock, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

The new crown prince of Chiyan Kingdom, Fu Shanyue!

Shouldn't he win the hearts of everyone in Chiyan Kingdom? How could he suddenly appear in Baishaqiang?

However, this question only lasted a moment. When he saw He Xiao riding a horse next to Fu Shanyue, he immediately understood.

Oops.

Fu Shanyue tightened the reins, and the horse stood up.

"You owed me a drink last year, and now I'm here to ask for a drink, and you still want to pay?"

Cen Boqing said solemnly: "I have something urgent to go back to Lingxu City. Why don't you follow me back to Baiyuxuan for a drink?" Baiyuxuan is a famous restaurant in Lingxu City.

"Is there something urgent that makes you unable to stay at the Hexiang Festival and you have to rush back all night?" Fu Shanyue said with a smile on his face and a cold light in his eyes. "Could it be that you want to rush back to sell off the stolen goods and silence them?"

"Your Majesty, be careful what you say!" Cen Boqing shouted, "Your subordinates are trying their best to pour dirty water on me, but they can't produce any evidence."

"Can't you get any evidence?" What Fu Shanyue wanted was what he said, "Come on, bring it up!"

The men immediately pushed out a man with a square face and thick eyebrows, in his early thirties.

He was tied up and his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot, and he looked a little cowed.

"Who is this?" Cen Boqing didn't recognize it.

Lu Dutong gave this person a push: "I'm asking you, tell me!"

"Little man, little man..."

Lu Dutong slapped him on the head with his backhand: "Speak louder, didn't you have lunch?"

"Yes, yes... the villain's name is Pang Denian, and he has worked under Wu Kai in the Cen Mansion for seven years." The man lowered his head and did not dare to look at Cen Boqing. He shouted at the top of his voice, "Ten days ago, Wu Kai ordered the villain to take the After the confession was prepared, go to the county prison to collude with Fu Songhua to force him to admit that he is the main culprit in the messenger case! "

There was so much commotion here in Cen Mansion that countless passers-by and residents had already gathered around to watch. Pang Denian roared like this, and the crowd exploded with a buzz.

Really? is it possible?

Because both the Lingxu City inspector and the Crown Prince's special envoy were handling the case in Baishaqiang, the case of the White-shouldered Eagle Courier had long been widely circulated in the local area, and there were several versions of conspiracy theories.

Now that the prince is here in person, the servants of the Cen Mansion identify their master as the real culprit behind the scenes?

Oh, the big guys are here. This melon is big enough and juicy enough!

Pang Denian continued to shout: "The prince's special envoy is here to investigate the case..."

Cen Boqing was so angry that he laughed: "You are such a slut, how can I have such a slut in my house!"

Lu Dutong bumped Pang Denian with his elbow, and he immediately shouted again: "I bought Pi Linhai with fifteen taels of silver, and he let me in. Later, the prince's special envoy came to investigate the case, and Pi Linhai disappeared."

Fu Shanyue squinted at Cen Boqing and said, "The prison boss who accepted the bribe died. You thought this clue was broken, so Pang Denian was sent by Wu Kai to Houjiazhuang in the southwest of Baishalu to take shelter."

Cen Boqing said coldly: "How dare you find a village guy to frame me like this? Go to Baisha Jian and ask around. Who can say that this person has something to do with my house!"

"Where's Wu Kai, let him come out and confront him." Fu Shanyue said with a smile, "Four years ago, his grandson fell into the water. In the middle of winter, Pang Denian jumped out of the ice cave to help him fish out his grandson. Afterwards, Wu Kai gave him two small gold bars. , This matter has long been spread in Baixiang, Pang Denian’s hometown, and anyone who asks will know about it.”

Cen Boqing always kept a straight face: "I have never heard of such a thing. I can't control how the people in Baixiang spread rumors."

He Lingchuan suddenly asked: "Where is Wu Kai?"

He glanced around the scene of the conflict and found no trace of Wu Kai. This man was Cen Boqing's confidant and had always been by his side. Why was he missing at such an important moment?

And when Fu Shanyue asked about Wu Kai, Cen Boqing would either talk about it or avoid answering.

Cen Boqing sneered: "I'm just an old servant, so I won't bother the prince."

Fu Shanyue cleared his throat and said: "Now Mr. Zhongsun has also been kidnapped. The two cases combined into one have become a major and serious case! I will personally investigate and deal with it, and I will get to the bottom of it. I hope Mr. Cen will cooperate well. Come on. Ah, help Mr. Cen move the bedding back to the mansion!"

This is to prevent Cen Boqing from leaving. While the two sides were talking to each other, groups of heavily armed officers and soldiers rushed over and surrounded the Cen Mansion three floors inside and three floors outside.

Magistrate Tian also came. Fu Shan Yue raised his fingers, and he hurried forward, nodding while listening to the instructions.

With the prince here, all the soldiers had no worries. They stepped forward to lead the carriage and move the boxes. They were completely different from the hesitant ones just now.

I suffered a loss when I formed a human wall before, but now I dare to step on the opponent's feet to vent my anger.

Everyone can see that the prince is determined to clean up the Cen family this time.

Cen Boqing's face was ashen and he waved his sleeves to go back to the mansion. After all, he was a step too slow and failed to escape from Bai Shaqian.

Lu Dutong, Tian County Magistrate and others tried their best to stop him, but Fushan Yue was different. This guy is famous for being generous. He doesn't care when the King of Heaven comes. He dares to do it first and get down first.

At this time, Magistrate Tian took half a step forward, coughed and said: "Detain Wu Kai and put him in prison pending trial."
