Return of the Swallow

Chapter 1041

Bian Ruohan felt that the aura when the saint came up this time was not right, obviously suppressing anger, and with so many soldiers in the mansion, she and Lu Heng were locked up again...

The more Bian Ruohan thought about it, the more frightened, he almost cried on the spot.

In the study, Lu Heng knelt down and bowed in salute, "The Holy Lord is here, but the ministers were not able to welcome him, please forgive me."

Li Qitian sneered when he heard the words, "Oh? Uncle Zhongyi is only such a sin?"

How clever Lu Heng is. He has been detained for the whole afternoon since he has been engaged in distribution. He has already figured out the cause and effect, and naturally he has also figured out the countermeasures.

"Holy Lord, Weichen is about to tell you something."

Li Qitian squinted at Lu Heng, looked at him with an expression of "It's up to you to act", and stretched his voice: "Play."

"Yes. The minister learned yesterday that Prince Zhongshun had already known the whereabouts of the treasures that the Lord was looking for. He hid the treasures in the stones, lured the ministers to transport them, and stole the treasures. Ling, never thought that Prince Zhongshun would take the opportunity to act, so he let him take advantage of the loopholes."

Li Qitian squinted his eyes, obviously not believing Lu Heng's words.

But if Pang Xiao will be involved, there is Pang Xiao's plan, Li Qitian believes.

Don't look at Pang Zhixi's appearance as a man of benevolence and justice, but in fact, only the person who has suffered from him a lot of dark losses knows how insidious this person is, and often pretends to be a good person in front of civil and military officials and fools.

He has always been good at doing things, advertised when doing good, and kept secret about evil. Even if his secret is discovered, he has the ability to make people think that he has been wronged by a great deal.

He is also good at warfare, and he does use soldiers like gods. There are as many soldiers and horses as there are throughout the Great Zhou, there are as many stupid men who blindly worship Pang Zhixi!This is what irritates Li Qitian most.

Now that Lu Heng said so, how can he arrest people and interrogate them?

Anyway, he is already determined to get the treasure now. Even if Lu Heng lied about Pang Zhixi, he could use this to get rid of a serious confidant!

Thinking about this, Li Qitian has made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "Do you know that the matter you reported involves the only prince with a different surname in this dynasty? It is a big crime to falsely accuse the prince."

Lu Heng's thoughts were teleported and he already understood Li Qitian's intentions, and solemnly kowtowed: "Going back to the saint, the minister's words are true, and the minister does not know it. It is not easy to directly report the matter to the saint and wait for the minister. When I wanted to investigate this matter clearly, the saint had already come here in person. The minister could only tell it in person."

"Oh?" Li Qitian snorted, "Didn't you know the whereabouts of the treasure, and you want to swallow it alone, and then after I noticed it, you clambered at others?"

"Going back to the Saints, the minister's family has been operating for a hundred years. Although it can't say how much money it has, silver is really not the most important thing for the minister and the minister's family. Moreover, it is not easy for the state of the Zhou Dynasty to be stable. How can the saint’s grace to covet treasure?"

Lu Heng's words successfully reminded Li Qitian of the Lumen family's financial aid to his army at the beginning of the dynasty.

Moreover, what Lu Heng said is reasonable. Such a big family does not lack money.Lu Heng didn't need to judge his future for the treasure.

So, everything is really what Pang Zhixi did?

When Li Qitian thought about it this way, he felt very refreshed in his heart. He had wanted to do Pang Zhixi for a long time, and had been struggling to find a suitable reason.It can only be reduced a little bit. Now Lu Heng has given him a perfect reason. Li Qitian thinks this is a double happiness!

"Very good. You have the heart to serve the country. I always know it. It's just that the incident happened suddenly and the implications are wide-ranging. I would like to believe you, but I must also investigate the matter clearly. I can't favor any party or frame anyone."

Lu Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was right in trying to figure out Li Qitian’s mind. Li Qitian wanted treasures and wanted to eradicate Pang Xiao who threatened his status. The reason he gave, whether it was true or not, Li Qitian I hope it's true.After all, compared with Pang Xiao, his existential threat on the surface is much smaller.

But, if you are not a leader, is there really no threat?

Lu Heng was insulting in his heart, anyway, this situation was also in line with his mind, and the black pot had already been stolen by Pang Zhixi, and he wanted to see this scene.

"I ask you. Are there treasures hidden in these other stones?" Li Qitian asked instead.

Lu Heng shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Returning to the saint, the minister does not know it. If there is a treasure, Prince Zhongshun will not be able to disclose the news to the minister. Please check it carefully."

Of course he knew which roads had treasures, but he just didn't want Li Qitian to go easily.Although he knew that the treasure himself would not be able to obtain it, it did not prevent him from adding wood to burn the fire, which made the Lord hate Pang Zhixi even more amidst the trouble of finding the treasure.

Li Qitian sneered: "Naturally I want to investigate."

Standing up and looking down at Lu Heng who was kneeling on the ground, Li Qitian said solemnly, "You can rest here these days. You can't leave the city without my instructions."

"Yes. I would like to thank Sheng Shang Longen." Lu Heng bowed respectfully.

Li Qitian stepped out quickly and told Xiong Jinshui, "Go to Danfu County and tell Prince Zhongshun to come and see me immediately."

Ma Cheng, standing by the side, saw that Li Qitian's expression was wrong, and his heart trembled. Knowing that the Lord was going to call Pang Xiao, he knew that there must be nothing good in it.He dared not show the slightest concern for Pang Xiao, only standing with his head down.

Xiong Jinshui responded immediately, and the shrimp waist retreated.

Danfu County.

Pang Xiao had received the news from the spies here.

"The Holy Master came here personally, he must have come to know about the treasure." Xie Yue said with emotion, "I didn't expect Tao Hanshan to switch to Qian Ying and Qian Ying can trust Tao Hanshan so much."

Xu Weizhi said: "This is Tao Hanshan's ability."

Pang Xiao knew that Qin Yining was upset because of Sakurai in the past few days. He suffocated his breath when he heard Tao Hanshan's name, so he didn't continue the topic, and instead said:

"It is surprising that the Holy Master did not do anything to Uncle Zhongyi. It is said that Uncle Zhongyi and his wife are under house arrest in Huichuan County. It's very."

Xu Weizhi said solemnly: "Master, the old always feels that things are not simple. Uncle Zhongyi is likely to push your sins."

Qin Yining, who had been silent for a long time, nodded and said, "I also think that Uncle Zhongyi is a wise man. Since the sage is here, he knows that he can't get the treasure. Since he can't get the treasure, he naturally has to make the most of the treasure. In which you can take advantage of the hostility of the sage towards you, you can also protect yourself. This is a matter of killing two birds with one stone."
