Chapter 114 How did he do it?
Good things don't go out, bad things pass thousands of miles.

Soon, what happened in Dongyi City spread through various channels.

Qing Kingdom, Imperial Palace.

Looking at the first-hand intelligence delivered to him, Emperor Qing widened his eyes, his face full of shock.

"Chen Pingping, are you sure this news is true?"

He had received news before that Li Chengping had been wandering around Dongyi City all day, so he thought that the other party just wandered around Dongyi City a few times and stayed there for a few more days for the sake of face.

It gives people the illusion that they are seriously searching for the murderer.

But Emperor Qing never expected that Li Chengping actually caught the person and left Dongyi City in such a dignified manner?

"Chen Pingping, don't you have spies from the Overwatch Council in Dongyi City? Are you sure that the man you arrested is the criminal who killed the Minister of Revenue's family?"

Emperor Qing had a gloomy face.

If Li Chengping had captured someone from Dongyi City just to complete his mission, he would have punished the person severely.

Chen Pingping cupped his hands.

"Your Majesty, according to the results of the Overwatch Council's investigation, there is nothing wrong with the murderer that the Third Prince has arrested. His name is Yun Che, and he ranks tenth among the Thirteen Sons of the Sword House."

This person is actually one of the Thirteen Sword Masters? !

Emperor Qing’s expression was particularly wonderful.

Chen Pingping looked serious and didn't seem like he was joking. After all, the other party had nothing to do with Li Chengping, so there was no need to hide it.

"Aren't the Thirteen Sword Masters all Si Gu Jian's disciples? The Third Master took the people away so openly, but that old guy didn't show up?"

Emperor Qing looked doubtful.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Si Gu Jian did not show up, according to the intelligence of the spies."

"On the day the Third Prince left with the prisoners, someone on the street tried to assassinate him, but he was beheaded before he succeeded. Later, Yun Zhilan came out to apologize to the Third Prince in public."

"After investigation by the Supervisory Council, it was found that the deceased was named Zhao Tai, and he was ranked eighth among the Thirteen Sons of Jianlu."

Every answer from Chen Pingping was like a heavy hammer, hitting Emperor Qing hard in the chest.

I haven't had any emotional fluctuations in many years, but today my curiosity was aroused.

"Okay, you continue to pay attention to the movements of the third brother and report to me at all times!"

Emperor Qing gave a warning.

Looking at Chen Pingping's leaving back, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Capture Yun Che, kill Zhao Tai, Yun Zhilan apologized in public. What kind of magic power do you have, Third Brother, that you could stir up such a big storm in Dongyi City?"

Emperor Qing muttered to himself.

If this were in Northern Qi, he might be able to understand it.

But what happened in Dongyi City made him very confused. When did Si Gu Jian become so good-tempered?

Didn't that guy hate the Qing royal family to the core, and not do anything about such a thing? Or was he in seclusion practicing and not paying attention to what was happening outside?
Emperor Qing’s thoughts were racing.

No matter how he guessed, he would never have thought that Li Chengping had a grandmaster who was even more powerful than Si Gu Jian.

after all.

After so many years, only four grand masters have appeared in the world. Three of them were promoted by Ye Qingmei, and Ye Liuyun relied on his own understanding.

From this we can see how difficult it is to break through to the Grand Master level.

Although Li Chengping is famous all over the world, he is just so-so in the eyes of Emperor Qing.

After all, he has no foundation or power at all. Who would want to join such a person?
What's more, the Grand Master has his own pride, so how could he be inferior to others?
Because of the relationship between the Ye family and the royal family, Ye Liuyun sometimes carries out some nominal tasks.

But what to do depends entirely on Ye Liuyun's mood.

When facing a grandmaster, it is impossible to kill him without complete confidence.

The best thing to do is not to make an enemy of it!

This is why he agreed to break off the engagement and marry Ye Ling'er to Li Chengping as a concubine. For Emperor Qing, a marriage can tie Ye Liuyun, the great master, to the Qing Kingdom, and it doesn't matter who he marries.

Whether it is Li Chengze or Li Chengping, they are both members of the royal family.

Inside Guangxin Palace.

Upon learning that Li Chengping had brought the criminal back to Beijing, Li Yunrui's face turned extremely ugly.

"How can a great master like Si Gu Jian be such a loser, hiding at a time like this!"

She cursed under her breath.

But she didn't have the courage to send anyone to cause trouble for Si Gu Jian. After all, this guy was a lunatic. He even dared to sneak into the palace to assassinate Emperor Qing. If he got angry, he would really do something to her.

"What on earth did this guy Lao San do? Am I really on the wrong path?"

Looking at the ceiling of the hall, a trace of confusion appeared in Li Yunrui's eyes.

Soon, her composure returned to normal.

"I haven't lost yet. As long as Cheng Qian is still the crown prince, I haven't lost. I don't believe that Your Majesty would depose the crown prince for no reason!"

"As long as Cheng Qian is still the crown prince, the third brother is only a prince no matter how powerful he is."

"When he reaches the right age, I will find an opportunity to have His Majesty drive him back to his fiefdom. Once he leaves the capital, he will no longer have the final say on the situation here!"

Li Yunrui narrowed his eyes, and confidence appeared on his delicate face again.

As long as Li Chengqian is still the crown prince, there is still a chance for everything.

Once Emperor Qing dies, the crown prince will ascend the throne and become emperor. It won’t be too late to deal with Li Chengping at that time!

at the same time.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Lin Ruofu sat in the house, looking at the information sent by Yuan Hongdao, squinting his eyes, and no one knew what he was planning in his mind.

……

Li Chengping had no idea that his random decision would cause a stir in the Qing court.

At this time, he was traveling south on a ship.

The boat was tossed along by the river water, which was a minor problem for Li Chengping and others, but was extremely tormenting for Yun Che.

He stood in the iron cage in a strange posture, neither sitting nor standing, and every bump was a torture to his body and mind.

"Third Prince, shouldn't we cross the river to Danzhou when we return? Why do we have to go south? I know the way to Qing State and can help guide us."

Yun Che had a flattering look on his face.

From the moment the caravan left Dongyi City and stepped onto the ship, he knew he had been abandoned.

The reason why Si Gu Jian didn't show up was probably because he didn't take a small role like him seriously.

He was trying to please Li Chengping and flatter him all the way.

Maybe if you praise the other person enough, he will let him go halfway.

Although this may be low, it is always a hope.

"Who do you think you are? Does our prince need your guidance to get home? Shut his mouth!"

Zhang Han snorted coldly, turned around and walked to Li Chengping, bowing slightly.

"Your Highness, isn't His Majesty urging us to return? Isn't this trip south going a longer route?"

Li Chengping smiled faintly.

"It's because it's farther, so we took a detour. His Majesty just urged us to go back quickly, but he didn't tell us the specific time."

"This man dared to kill an important official in the court. It would be too easy for him to just behead him. When we get to Jiangnan, we should take some bumpy roads so that he can enjoy his death!"
