"Hey, the braised lion's head here is very good, Ruan Di, you can try it." Meng Yan avoided answering, but picked up a piece of meat and put it into Ruan Di's bowl. Ruan Di saw that he didn't want to answer his question, so he had to give up. But he secretly wondered in his heart: "Although this Meng Yan is a twenty-three-year-old person, he is as unstable as a teenager. He didn't want to ask these questions, so I just didn't ask! ”

Just as he was out of his mind, he heard Meng Yan say again: "Ruan Di, the last time you went to Soochow was so dangerous, don't go in the future." ”

"How do you know I've gone to Soochow? How do you know about the sinister things? Ruan Di was thinking about the doubts that Qi Xiaoxian told her in the morning, and she couldn't figure it out, but Meng Yan suddenly asked, and her heart was suspicious for a while.

"Ah...... This, of course, I am hearsay. Lord Ruan was made an exception to be named the history of the four pins of Dongwu Thorn, who doesn't know this, who doesn't know? Meng Yan grinned and laughed.

"I see. Brother Meng Yan, I've been too sensitive lately, I'm sorry. Ruan Di heard that his tone was relaxed, not at all fake, and it was also reasonable, so he believed it.

"How could that be? Ruan Di, you still don't know who I Meng Yan is? Hey, you Tianxianglou hasn't innovated for a long time, you come back this time, do you want to sit for some activities or something? ”

The two discussed the matter of Tianxianglou again.

Not long after, a small servant came over and said that Qi Xiaoxian had returned home and asked him to come and see Ruan Di.

Ruan Di's face turned red as soon as he "Teng". Peeked at Meng Yan next to him, he was holding a teacup, drinking tea leisurely.

"Brother Meng Yan, it's getting late, it's better to meet another day! Stay. ”

After saying that, he went downstairs, got into the carriage and went back.

Sure enough, I saw Qi Xiaoxian reading a book in the study.

Ruan Di tiptoed over and said with a smile: "What are you looking at?" ”

"Coming back?" Qi Xiaoxian raised his head and kissed her lightly, "I'm going to go to the military aircraft department today for ceremonies, just to come back and see you." ”

"Military Aircraft Division? Is it a suspicion about Jiangnan Soochow? Ruan Di suddenly became interested, and grabbed Qi Xiaoxian's arm, for fear that he would run away.

Qi Xiaoxian looked at Ruan Di's impatience, a little funny, and gently shook Ruan Di's hand: "Exactly." I have already reported everything I found suspicious yesterday to the emperor, and the emperor asked me to go to the military aircraft later. At this time, no one knew about the ministers of the DPRK and China. ”

"Then does my dad know?" Ruan Di was a little frustrated. The meaning of Qi Xiaoxian's words is that since the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee do not know, they themselves cannot know.

"Your dad probably doesn't know. I don't know if the emperor asked him to go to the military aircraft in the evening. ”

The two said a few more words, Qi Xiaoxian was sunset in the west mountain, and the willows were on the moon. So he prepared his horse and went to the palace.

As soon as he arrived at the military plane, two small yellow doors came over and welcomed Qi Xiaoxian into the study.

"Commander Qi, what do you think about this?" As soon as Qi Xiaoxian entered the door, the emperor asked, his face a little anxious.

Qi Xiaoxian hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully: "The minister has already found out that there are many suspicious points in those two cases. You only need to torture the people in the Peony Sect who are caught one by one, and there will be results. ”

The emperor hesitated slightly, nodded yes after a while, and seemed to have some scruples, and said softly: "Commander Qi, only Ruan Shangshu, General Deng, and you and I know about this matter, and nothing else." But be careful about secrecy! ”

Qi Xiaoxian's heart tightened, and he promised on the spot that he would not tell others about it. The emperor let him step down.

Qi Xiaoxian turned his head and went out, but he didn't go home, but went towards the Qing officials.

It turned out that in the last Soochow case, Master Li committed suicide. But it was not complete.

He was unwilling in his heart, and committing suicide was a delaying tactic. Thinking about the golden cicada coming out of its shell, it was very light, but it temporarily blocked the muscles and veins of the whole body.

However, it can be unraveled on its own and restored to the beginning.

It was also thanks to Qi Xiaoxian that they were lucky, with the presence of the master of the Immortal Medicine Sect, his conspiracy was exposed on the spot, and he immediately took the plan and captured Master Li and brought him back to Beijing.

It's a pity that he has exhausted all the mechanisms in his life, but he didn't count that day.

Not many people know about it. Since the case of Soochow appeared, the emperor has been much more vigilant, and he has guarded against the existence of ghosts in the court everywhere.

Qi Xiaoxian said to a subordinate: "Go and bring up Li Jing, who was captured by Dongwu, I have some questions to ask him." ”

The man agreed, and brought Li Jing up after a short time. But I saw that Li Jing was scolding and scolding, but he was in good spirits for several days in this prison, and he didn't see any decadence.

Qi Xiaoxian said in his heart: "Sure enough, some henchmen have not been trimmed yet. ”

That Li Jing was looking at Qi Xiaoxian with a slanted gaze at the moment, and the look of contempt in him was undisguised.

Qi Xiaoxian raised his eyes and swept over, and the two made eye contact. Seeing the disdain and contempt in his eyes, Qi Xiaoxian sneered, and said without any waves in his heart: "Master Li, I haven't seen you for a long time." Are you still used to living in this capital? ”

The meaning of the sarcasm in the words can be understood by a person with ears.

That Master Li was furious and shouted, "What are you, dare to laugh at Old Man Yu like this!" When the old man was crawling in the officialdom, you kid was probably still nursing in your mother's arms! ”

Qi Xiaoxian didn't mind, nodded and agreed with his words: "That's nature." It's a pity that thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi! Now you, Master Li, are actually my prisoner. ”

Master Li was furious, but he had shackles on his hands and feet, and if he struggled, he would make a loud noise. Therefore just stay still, lest you add to the jokes.

Qi Xiaoxian pressed step by step: "You are so arrogant and arrogant? Did you expect that your Peony Sect Leader would send someone to rescue you? ”

After that, he carefully observed the expression of Master Li. saw a panic on his face, and quickly calmed down.

Qi Xiaoxian's eyes showed a hint of understanding, and he sneered a few times.

Seeing him like this, Master Li defended again: "Commander Qi is really ridiculous. Our Peony Sect was negligent for a while, and fell for the tricks of the imperial court. At this time, the sect leader had been beheaded and died. How could he come to my rescue? ”

However, the panic and ecstasy on his face before had all fallen into Qi Xiaoxian's eyes. Qi Xiaoxian didn't dare to be sure what he thought in his heart, but when he saw that Li Jing was like this, he had eight or nine out of ten in his heart.

Laughing: "That's nature. I'm afraid that there are several sect leaders in the Peony Sect, and I don't know! One is dead, and there is another! ”

Li Jing was suddenly shocked and angry, and said without words: "You...... How do you know? ”

At this time, Qi Xiaoxian was like a mirror in his heart, and he didn't want to talk more about Li Jing, an old thing, and ordered his subordinates to send him back to the cell.
