Chapter 440: Reason

Walking outside the court meeting, Chu Xian saw an official from the Yang family talking to a middle-aged official outside.

Chu Xian's heart moved, knowing that this middle-aged official should be Zheng Guanjie.

This person is not simple, Chu Xian feels that using the Shuzhou case to set up a trap should be this person's idea, and Yue Xiaoyun in Jingzhou suddenly investigated Luo Wenju, perhaps, it is also related to this person.

Someone said before that Yue Xiaoyun, as an imperial historian, has a fairly fair style, and he is also very upright, not the kind of person who can make small moves, in Chu Xian's opinion, Yue Xiaoyun investigated Luo Wenju, I am afraid that he has fallen into someone else's trap, and this person is most likely Zheng Guanjie.

Because among all the four candidates, the only one who found no negative news in the end was this Zheng Guanjie.

This person is smart, but a little too smart.

On the way back, Chu San asked about the affairs of the court meeting, obviously also concerned about whether Chu Xian could seek a new official position, Chu Xian shook his head and did not talk to Chu San in detail.

The two of them came on foot, and now they are walking back.

Chu Xian thought as he walked, and as soon as he was halfway there, someone stopped them in front of them.

As soon as he saw this person, the stone hanging in Chu Xian's heart fell.

The person who stands in the way is Xuanyue Valley.

......

In a hidden mansion in Jingzhou, from the outside, there is nothing special at all, it is the appearance of an ordinary family, but at this moment, in the courtyard, in addition to Xuanyue Valley, there are several immortal guards.

These are all masters of the Dao Immortal Realm, either martial saints, some are superb in boxing, some are unparalleled in swordsmanship, and all of them are the top combat power in the Holy Dynasty.

Chu San was arranged to rest and drink tea in a small room with an isolation formation, obviously there were some things that Chu San's level couldn't know.

In the main hall, there were only Chu Xian and Xiao Yu.

Seeing Xiao Yu, Chu Xian was not surprised, and after saluting respectfully, Xiao Yu looked at Chu Xian and asked, "Chu Xian, you don't seem surprised?"

Chu Xian nodded: "The lower officials know that Lord Zhongshu must have something important to order." ”

Xiao Yu smiled and said in a deep voice: "In the future, you will go further than Huanzhi." ”

This sentence was full of appreciation, Chu Xian didn't speak, after all, in the face of Shangguan's praise, it was wrong to agree and disagree, and smiling and not saying a word, that was the best way to deal with it.

"At the court meeting, there is a reason why I suddenly stopped the selection of the criminal secretary, according to the situation at the time, you will inevitably be selected to become the criminal secretary, I can only stop in order to stop it, because there is one thing to be handed over to you to do temporarily, and this matter is very important. ”

Xiao Yu then said: "What I want to say next, you must not leak it to others, if you leak the news, there is only a dead end." ”

Chu Xian was upright, secretly complaining in his heart, thinking that if it was too troublesome, don't leave it to me, be promoted well, and be the middle man of the criminal department, isn't it good?

However, Chu Xian just thought about it, and he definitely couldn't say it.

"You're familiar with Liangzhou, right?" Xiao Yu asked at this time.

Chu Xian nodded: "Xiaguan once served in Dinghai County, Liangzhou. ”

"Liangzhou has a prince of the royal family stationed there, do you know this?" Xiao Yu asked again.

Chu Xian still nodded: "The princes of the royal family are stationed in Liangzhou, Xinjiangzhou, Wuzhou and other border states, this is the practice of the Holy Dynasty, and the lower officials naturally know that the one who is resident in Liangzhou should be Prince De." ”

"Not bad. Xiao Yu nodded, most officials knew about these things, and then, Xiao Yu lowered his voice and said: "But just yesterday, Prince De of Liangzhou suddenly disappeared." ”

Chu Xian was taken aback.

What does it mean to be missing?

A royal prince is missing?

This thing is a little interesting.

Because Chu Xian was a human being and had insight into some things in the future, among what he knew, Prince De of Liangzhou was not missing, and the official news was that he died of illness, but it was because of this incident that the royal family caught the handle and caused the huge changes and catastrophes that swept the Holy Dynasty in his previous life.

Suffice it to say, the losses are huge.

However, at that time, Chu Xian was just a small official who was not even an official, and Chu Xian naturally didn't know the details and details of these things at the top.

It turned out that the actual situation was that Prince De did not die of illness, but was actually missing.

After thinking about it, Chu Xian understood that in his known memory, in the end, the Holy Dynasty must not have found the missing Prince De, so he could only declare that he had died of illness.

After all, death is more acceptable than disappearance, but even so, it still caused the royal family's dissatisfaction with the control of the Shoufu Pavilion, causing a huge conflict.

In addition, Chu Xian also discovered an amazing thing.

The Shoufu Pavilion was actually before the royal family, and found out that Prince De was missing.

What does this mean?

It shows that the Shoufu Pavilion has long been secretly monitoring the people of the royal family.

This is a shocking secret, and if it is exposed, then the matter will be a big deal.

Although he realized this, Chu Xian pretended not to notice, anyway, at this time, the less he knew, the safer he was, Chu Xian's mind was racing here, and Xiao Yu continued: "Prince De is a member of the royal family, one of the descendants of Taizong's Holy Ancestor, and the stakes are very important, and his sudden disappearance naturally can't be publicized, so you need to investigate secretly, and quickly, to find out this matter In my opinion, it is none other than you." ”

Xiao Yu looked at Chu Xian and waited for him to answer.

Chu Xian's scalp is numb, this errand is very tricky, and there is no doubt that Xiao Yu, the master of Zhongshu, must have too many things to hide from himself.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with this, my level is too low, as long as I am responsible for finding someone.

But the problem is that Chu Xian feels that this matter is that Prince De is playing missing by himself, and if he plays missing, there are many ways to play, and there is almost nowhere to check, that is to say, this errand is not easy to do, it is simply a huge pit.

Since he knew that it was a pit, where was Chu Xian willing to jump.

So Chu Xian didn't say anything, but what he was thinking about was how to get out.

This kind of troublesome thing, if you are not careful, you may fall into it, with your current figure, you will definitely not be able to get out if you really fall into it, so Chu Xian doesn't want to get involved.

But how to refuse is also a science.

And it seems that Xiao Yuzhongshu obviously wants to drive ducks to the shelves, and there is no room for Chu Xian to refuse.

"By the way, no matter what this matter is, the Liangzhou Thorn History is a dereliction of duty, under his rule, this kind of major event happened, he can't escape the blame, I have already ordered that the Liangzhou Thorn Shi Guo Son-in-law be transferred back to Jingzhou, check him first, so that the position of the Liangzhou Thorn History will be vacant, Chu Xian, you will temporarily go to the Assassin History, go to the emergency first. ”

After Xiao Yu finished speaking, Chu Xian was dumbfounded.

What the?

History of Liangzhou thorns?

Although it's generational and temporary, it's also a history of thorns.

The highest official in charge of a state, the official of the territory, and the emperor of the soil in the mouth of the people.

This is an official position that I don't know how many officials dream of, and even the vast majority of officials in the Holy Dynasty can achieve the first level of assassination, which is already the top of the sky.

To be honest, of course Chu Xian was moved, even if it was only for the assassin history, temporary, it was also able to exercise the authority of the assassin history, but obviously, there was no such good thing in this world at all.

Chu Xian knows better than anyone that this generation of assassins is a bait to lure himself into the pit.

Because he wants to investigate the disappearance of Prince De, he must be secret, but if he goes to Liangzhou, it is difficult to guarantee that he will leak the news and arouse suspicion.

Therefore, it is not enough to install an official position.

So what official position is installed?

According to Chu Xian's current official rank, Zheng Wupin, put it in the state, then there are only three positions, one is the military government Sima, this is definitely not good, the military government Sima is strict, you have to be a general from the military camp, and it has to be decided by the general, the jade general and the big Sima.

Xiao Yu is a Zhongshu order, although the official position is high and the power is great, but his hand can't reach out.

There is also the history of the governor, which is the No. 2 person in a state, but relatively speaking, it is not as good as the criminal secretary Zhonglang, try to ask, it is clear that Chu Xian can be the criminal secretary Zhonglang, but he wants to go to Liangzhou to be a long history, which is even more suspicious.

The only suitable one is the history of thorns.

As the number one person in the state, the feudal official, at least in terms of power, is higher than the criminal secretary Zhonglang, although in the state, he lost the qualification to participate in the court meeting, but relatively speaking, he still has a lot to lose.

It is because of this consideration that Xiao Yu decided to temporarily install an official position for Chu Xian, so that when he arrived in Liangzhou, Chu Xian was the number one person, and he was in power, and it was much easier to investigate and handle some things.

But obviously, Chu Xian didn't think so, he knew that this was a pit, and he would definitely not jump down in a hurry, so at this moment, Chu Xian said with a strong desire to survive: "Prince De is missing, you can mobilize the Cave Candle Division to investigate, so that it is easier to find out the truth." ”

Xiao Yu's face sank, and he said directly: "Are you planning to disobey the order?"

Obviously, Xiao Yu had already seen Chu Xian's calculations, so he blocked all of Chu Xian's detours in one sentence, which is very clear, this matter is for you to do, can you do it?

To do it is to jump into the pit, and if you don't do it, you will disobey the order and disrespect, and you will have to be cold after you touch it.

Chu Xian's forehead was sweating, after all, Xiao Yu's momentum was not covered, and few people could remain calm under Xiao Yu's questioning.

At this time, Chu Xian's face was serious: "Lord Zhongshu, I have thought about it, when will I leave?" Xia Guan felt that it should be as soon as possible, after all, the matter is urgent and cannot be delayed. ”

Xiao Yu smiled, with a right expression: "Give you an hour to go back and prepare, and then someone will send you to Liangzhou to take office, by the way, your family can't go for the time being, this matter is done, you can remove the code of the history of the assassination, can't it be done...... Hmph, hmph!"

The last two humming Chu Xian were a little apprehensive.

Speaking of which, even if Chu Xian is a human being in two lifetimes, that age is too much worse than Xiao Yu, not to mention other immortal officials, Xiao Yu is among the immortal officials, even if he is young and promising.

So dealing with these scheming people is really tiring, especially when the power is not as good as others, you can only be choked by the neck, and you have to go wherever you go.
