Chapter 616 Reinforcements
There was silence in the back room of the slave-selling shop.
Contrary to Xu Yuan's expectation, Huang Shiwei seemed not to know that the man in the portrait was Nalan Ting, who launched the Tarchao Rebellion.
Looking at the hesitation on the other person's face, Xu Yuan thought for a while and asked strangely:
“Mr. Huang, the Director of the Secret Investigation Department did not explain this person’s identity to you before performing the mission?”
Huang Shiwei came back to his senses after hearing the words, and his voice echoed in the small inner room:
“Our mission is only to track Qin Weishu and arrest him, and we will not be informed of meaningless intelligence.”
Xu Yuan picked up the rice paper on the table without comment. The elegant and realistic floral fragrance on it penetrated the back of the paper under the light, and said slowly:
“The origin of the heart is indeed not related to the tracking and arrest operation, but if it is clear that the heart belongs to the late King of Tartar and Chao Dynasty, a lot of information should be able to be deduced from this.
“If nothing else, through this information, we can at least confirm the level of danger of the mission.”
Having said that, Xu Yuan had a flash of doubt in his heart:
“So in this matter, why did the head of the Secret Intelligence Department conceal this news from you?”
“Young Master.”
Huang Shiwei abruptly interrupted Xu Yuan’s murmur and reminded him:
“The president may not know anything about the affairs of the late King of Tartar and Chao.”
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan immediately raised his eyes, subconsciously feeling that the other party was joking with him.
The Secret Intelligence Department is the largest intelligence agency publicly displayed by the imperial court. Although the agency is a foreign minister loyal to the imperial court, Zhou Quanping, the director of the Secret Investigation Department, is one of the highest-ranking members of the imperial party.
Does the emperor need to hide the matter about Nalanting from Zhou Quanping?
But after seeing the other party’s serious expression, Xu Yuan gently uttered two words:
ifies.
Huang Shiwei looked solemn, bowed his hands, and said softly:
“First of all, the custody level of the “ancestral king of Tartar and Chao” in the imperial prison was not high, only at the prefectural level.
“Second, Xu Mengxi also participated in this mission.”
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows. He was not satisfied with this explanation.
Huang Shiwei also saw it and explained quickly:
"Sir, once this matter involves the late King of Tarchao, it will inevitably involve a serious matter. The danger level of the mission will rise to the point of narrow escape. Xu Mengxi has been punished for dereliction of duty. The president will definitely use this as an excuse to confine her to Di'an City. Rather than letting him go out and take risks.”
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan lightly pressed the desk and did not reply immediately.
Given Zhou Quanping’s character, this statement is not impossible.
But in this case, things become complicated.
There seems to be the shadow of the Holy One behind this incident?
Xu Yuan could not confirm this, but he could confirm that the variables in the whole thing seemed to have increased again.
His portrait here is of Nalan Ting, the late king of Tartar and Chao Dynasty, because of the Desert Goddess line in "Cangyuan" in his previous life, rather than the internal reference of the Prime Minister's Mansion in this life.
The moment he saw the portrait, Xu Yuan subconsciously thought that these senior officials knew about this, but now it seems that this is not the case.
As one of the highest-ranking members of the Imperial Party, the Director-General of the Secret Investigation Department did not even know the identity of the late King of Tarchao.
Such a high level of confidentiality made Xu Yuan a little unsure whether his family knew about it.
It is useless to think too much. After a while, I went to the branch of the Black Scale Guards and used the communication crystal to ask the father in Di'an City if he had any questions.
Having made up his mind, Xu Yuan stopped worrying about this matter.
Learning that the purpose of Qin Weishu's imprisonment was Nalan Ting, the former king of Tartar and Chao, has made a lot of logic begin to become clearer.
He has roughly guessed the means by which the Qin family wants to control the desert goddess and the wolf.
And what role Jiantian Pavilion played in this matter.
After sorting out his thoughts, Xu Yuan asked the question he was most concerned about:
“I already know about this matter. I used the Broken Spirit Stone to notify Di’an City before. You should not be the only one who comes here to suppress Xifu City, right?”
“Back to the young master, there is only one person named Huang.”
.”Xu Yuan.
." Huang Shiwei.
Big eyes and small eyes.
The air was quiet for a moment, and Xu Yuan felt a headache.
He knew that Di'an and the Northern Territory had attracted a lot of attention from the Prime Minister, so he didn't expect so much. After all, it was impossible for his uncle and father to leave in person at this juncture, but Lou Ji had told him before that they There are three saints in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Daddy and uncle can't count on it. At the worst, they should send a third person over to suppress the formation. Even if nothing can be done, they can still take him and run away, right?
But now it seems that his judgment on the situation in the north is still a bit too optimistic.
Leaning on the back of the chair, Xu Yuan put his legs directly on the table. He used the light light to gently soften his brows and said casually:
“Mr. Huang, you came here in person, didn’t you just want to run away with me?”
Hearing this,
Huang Shiwei hesitated a little and said slowly:
“Third Young Master, you have misunderstood. Huang came to Zhenxi Fucheng firstly to make some arrangements here in advance, and secondly because he was ordered to bring you something.”
Xu Yuan instantly raised his eyes and stared at Huang Shiwei:
"what?"
Huang Shiwei put his hand into his arms, respectfully placed a black ring on the table, and whispered:
“This thing was given to you by Lord Lou Ji who asked Si Zijing to give it to me.”
ˆ “.”
Looking at the dark ring, Xu Yuan's heart suddenly began to accelerate uncontrollably.
He recognized this thing.
Although he fainted due to the backlash the moment he came into contact with Emperor Sean's heart, the texture of the void stone was firmly engraved in his mind.
Gewuyuan, how could it successfully reproduce the teleportation formation pattern in such a short period of time?
Wrong.
The acceleration of the heart causes Qi and blood to surge up, affecting IQ.
Xu Yuan almost forgot that there were two traitors from the Supervisory Heaven Pavilion at home.
The two brothers and sisters were both figures from ten thousand years ago, especially Luo Xiran's adopted sister who was engaged in scientific research. They must know how to carve teleportation formation patterns.
Suppressing his emotions, Xu Yuan put his legs down again, reached for the black ring, took it out and put it on his middle finger, smiling and saying:
“Thank you for this, Mr. Huang, but what did you mean by the arrangement just now?”
“The Secret Investigation Department found some clues about the Qin family in Zhenxi Mansion. Originally, Huang was going to deal with those traitors.”
"Traitor? From the Secret Intelligence Service or from the Blackscale Guards?"
“Yes, but now that the plan has changed, there is no need to use such drastic measures.”
"What's the meaning."
“We captured the substitute of the second young master of the Qin family alive on the road.”
Huang Shiwei bowed respectfully again: "Thanks to you, Master, for destroying Qin Weishu in the first place and not distinguishing between the body and the body. Now there is almost no difference between the double and the real body."
Hearing this, a flash of surprise flashed through Xu Yuan's heart.
Want to play the game of trading civet cats for the prince?
After thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan didn’t pay too much attention to these scraps and asked with a smile:
“As long as you have an idea, do you need the cooperation of the Black Scale Guard? I do have someone I can trust here.”
Huang Shiwei smiled lightly, shook his head, and whispered:
"Third Young Master, you are joking. My status is special and I cannot deal directly with the Black Scale Guards."
“I forgot about it.”
"But Mr. Huang, you'd better not leave the city in the near future. Even with your level of cultivation, it is extremely dangerous to go outside the city. More than five saints have gathered here in the Western Desert."
ˆ “.”
Five Saints
The chat-like words directly set off a storm in Huang Shiwei's heart. Although he had developed professionalism over the years so that he was sure of his ears, at this moment he still felt that he had heard wrong, or maybe the Third Young Master had said something wrong?
Seeing the other party’s expression, Xu Yuan was in a good mood and explained casually:
“According to common sense, there should only be two or three people, but a family of demons appeared, so it became more than five.
“Mr. Huang, you don’t have to question the source of my intelligence. I have confirmed four of them with my own eyes.”
Huang Shiwei’s hands in salute were slightly clenched, with a hint of seriousness:
“Third Young Master, I’m afraid I have to inform the Prime Minister about this matter.”
Xu Yuan smiled lightly:
"Before I met you, I was planning to go to the Black Scale Guards. Mr. Huang, you don't need to be too nervous. These five saints represent at least three forces and are not monolithic."
As he stood up and walked out, Xu Yuan seemed to remember something and suddenly asked:
"By the way, now that you have arrived at Zhenxi Mansion, who is responsible for the tracking task of Qin Weishu?"
“He is the eldest son.”
ˆ “.”
Hearing this name, Xu Yuan's heart skipped a beat subconsciously, and his dark pupils shrank into almonds.
Xu Changge?
It’s over.
Xu Yuanhuan subconsciously clenched his hands and turned his eyes to stare at Huang Shiwei:
“Who did you say it was?”
Huang Shiwei was caught off guard by the sudden change, but after a brief silence, he still said solemnly:
“Back to the young master, it is the eldest son who is following Qin Weishu.”
ˆ “.”
The moment of joy just now was of course gone, replaced by a feeling of panic.
Standing on the same spot, Xu Yuan curled his palms into fists and pressed the center of his eyebrows with his finger bones.
The throat rolled up and down, and the originally coherent brain became a little confused at this moment.
In the Desert Goddess line in "Cangyuan", Nalan Ting, the ancestral king of Tartar and Chao Dynasty, is considered a dispensable side character.
If he can be rescued from the prison and sacrificed to heaven, he can be given a layer of buffs to Lin Lang and the Desert Goddess.
Very tasteless.
Because if you want to get this layer of buff, you have to break into Di'an City first, and you have already broken into Di'an City, so naturally you don't need this layer of buff.
The details that were vague at the beginning have now been materialized, and the heart of Nalan Ting seems to have become a sharp weapon for the Qin family to swallow up the King of Tartar and Chao Dynasty.
It can be imagined how seriously the Qin family attaches importance to this key part of the plan.
They will most likely send a saint to respond.
This saint may be the saint from the Qin family who has not yet appeared, or he may be the master of the Supervisory Heaven Pavilion!
Before learning about Nalan Ting, the former king of Tartar and Chao, Xu Yuan had been thinking about the role of Jiantian Pavilion in the whole thing.
Tian Yan, the "Tian Yan" saint who was born to cope with the calamity, was sent to the Western Desert, which already shows that the Supervisory Sky Pavilion attaches great importance to this matter.
It is not impossible for the master of the pavilion to come in person.
The war in the north is coming to an end, and the emperor's life has come to an end.
At this juncture when the relationship is about to be broken, no one will hold back.
There is an error in the information.
And if you face the Master of Jiantian Pavilion,
That eldest brother will definitely be dead.
The midday sun has begun to tilt towards the west. The fierce rising sun is baking the yellow stone ground. The sweat of pedestrians on the street is immediately sizzling due to the temperature of the ground.
When he walked out of the slave selling shop, Xu Yuan did a little search and found Tian Yan's figure.
A girl in a pale pink palace dress was squatting in the shadows on a street corner, her wide skirt spread on the floor, her golden eyes smiling, teasing a yellow native dog on the street.
Central Plains Pastoral Dog.
The girl smiled and gently tickled the native dog's chin with her slender soft hair.
The native dog's eyes showed clear stupidity. He stuck out his tongue, exposed his belly, and rolled comfortably on the ground.
The moment he saw this scene, Xu Yuan immediately realized that Tianye had come out again.
Tianyan would not do such boring things.
Go and stand behind the other party, not looking back day and night, with a smile in his voice:
“Are you done talking?”
"time to go."
“Listening to your voice, it looks like something is not going well~”
Tianye patted the native dog on the belly and stood up slowly. He glanced back at Xu Yuan's gloomy expression and pointed at the native dog on the ground:
“I wanted to make you kick it as a joke, but now it seems you are not in the mood anymore.”
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan indeed didn't pay attention to this woman and turned around and left.
Tianye jumped up and followed him, leaning forward with her hands behind her back, looking at his expression with a smile:
“Looking at your expression, something must have happened to someone important?”
Xu Yuan glanced at him and took a step of ten feet:
"Um."
“I guess it’s Xu Changge?”
“.” Xu Yuan frowned.
Tianye’s voice still had the same smile that didn’t care even if the sky fell:
"There are only a few people you care about. If something happened to your father and the others, you would have started running away by now. And Lou Ji went to Wanyao Valley alone before. Even if something happened to her, there would be no news, so I I guess it was Xu Changge who went after Qin Weishu and met this generation’s Master of the Tiantian Pavilion?”
Xu Yuan subconsciously stopped and stared back at Tian Ye.
After a while, his voice was slightly hoarse:
“Have you already pushed out this matter?”
"No."
Tianye blinked her beautiful eyes innocently and said softly: "I only guessed about Xu Changge by looking at your expression."
He said,
The girl's red lips raised a devilish chuckle:
"However, I did tell you what the Qin family wanted to get from the prison. After all, I know very well why the ancient beast Linlang is loyal to the Tachao people~"
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan did not show any expression, but there was a hint of murderous intent.
This enchantress has much more information than he imagined.
“Don’t look at people like that~”
Tianye suddenly flashed her delicate and indifferent eyes, with two shining crescent moons: "You said it yourself, I am just a witness beside you, a witness who watches your joys, sorrows, joys and sorrows."
He said,
The girl suddenly came close to his ear and breathed out:
“Xu Yuan, what your father wants to do is not just pretending to be a family drinker. If the difference is a thousand miles, anyone may die at any time on this road.
“Of course, you are not among these people.
"At least,
“Not until I die.”
