Chapter 165： Two decrees, one seed

Chapter 165 Two decrees, one seed

The next morning, six o'clock in the morning.

A slight warm wind blew past, and the faint wind swirled into every corner of the imperial capital, sweeping into every wisp of dust.

Yesterday was the last day of July, and last night was also a very ordinary night. It seemed that nothing happened, and the new January came quietly.

The imperial capital is still the same. The climate is getting hotter every day. People who are hot are like lying in a steamer with a big fire, and their hearts are full of endless irritability.

Didu Hospital is still the same as it used to be. The freezer in the underground morgue constantly exudes a gloomy and cold atmosphere, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.

certainly.

Equally uncomfortable is a certain house in the restricted area of ​​the royal family. Dark brown blood soaked the concrete roof, one piece after another, like bright lotus flowers.

Fortunately, this is the roof, no one can see it, so there is no need to bother cleaning up the blood.

But it is also because this is the roof, so when Wu Chengwu Tianwang was discovered, he had only half breath left, and only the last one or two points were there to hold on there not to die.

He has very important information, which must be reported to the high-level royal family. This is very likely to affect the situation of Daqin in the next few decades. Maybe the future is not needed at all, but the present.

"Your Majesty, King Cheng Tian is not out of danger for the time being, but he forcibly woke up for a minute halfway, and told the story of the attack last night."

In the resplendent and magnificent hall, the bricks and tiles are piled up like flying dragons and phoenixes.

There was a wrinkled, rickety white-haired old man who lowered his head and handed over the note in his hand respectfully.

Qin Huang, who was sitting opposite him, was enjoying a breakfast banquet, so he didn't reach out to pick it up. He still held the crisp white radish in front of him with his chopsticks.

Until the plate was full and there were only a few sparse sticks left, Qin Huang slowly picked up the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, raised his hand to take the note and took a deep look.

The old man on the side didn't waste any time. Taking advantage of this time, he winked at the surrounding maids and waved slightly.

The maids immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly walked forward quietly with small steps, and removed all the plates and chopsticks.

Everything in this hall seems to be still in the feudal dynasty a thousand years ago. Except for the different dresses of the people, the remaining habits, etiquette and even official positions are exactly the same.

This old man who controls a certain amount of power is the chief executive of the royal family of the Great Qin Empire. It can also be said that he is the personal **** of the Qin Emperor and his confidant.

Of course, now he is not called the head of the Ouchi, and the old man is not an eunuch.

After the last maid left the hall with a tray, Qin Huang just finished reading the clues given by Wu Cheng in his hand.

He put it aside casually, frowned slightly, and said softly:

"Yannan family? It's really interesting, what do you think?"

The old man knew that Qin Huang was asking him, so he immediately replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, our family thinks that the Yannan family really has this possibility, but if it is said that Fang Guogong wanted to do it himself... it would be a bit self-deprecating."

"Then you mean that the other four people framed you?"

Qin Huang asked with a smile, his face was as pale as ever, almost as if he was dead, and he didn't know whether he was really weak or because he ate too much shredded white radish every day.

Regarding this extremely sensitive issue, the old man dared not speak casually.

He thought about it for a while, and then said with embarrassment and embarrassment: "Our family didn't see each other last night, so I don't dare to make random guesses in my heart, why don't I ask the people below to investigate."

Qin Huang knew that he was talking nonsense, but he didn't get angry because of it, and he never scolded him. He just shook his head and said slowly:

"Investigate, it is definitely impossible to investigate, even though the other party stole three large coffins, they can forcefully plant a reason for the theft of royal treasures.

But since he was able to hide from so many eyes in the dark, and was able to injure a heavenly king without a sound, and walk out swaggeringly with a weight of several thousand catties, it was impossible to find out by ordinary means. "

After the words fell to the ground, Emperor Qin frowned even tighter, and then said: "With the power of the Yannan Clan, if you really want to do this, you can really do it."

He seems to have decided that this is Fang Xiang's hand, but the old man in front of him has followed Qin Huang for many years, and he can smell a little emperor's heart.

The more Qin Huang said this, the more he felt in his heart that it could not be the Yannan family.

Just from the motive alone, it can't be explained at all.

So, which one will it be?

The old man didn't dare to speak indiscriminately, so his head lowered even more, and his mouth seemed to be sewn shut with a needle and thread.

The great hall fell into a strange silence, Qin Huang's eyes kept changing and complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

This lasted for about fifteen minutes, and a handsome maid stepped outside the hall, and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty, it's time to undress."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall instantly broke down.

Qin Huang stood up with a smile, opened his arms, and let the maids who filed in undo his belt and put on another Nine Dragons black robe for him.

"After the deliberations in the court hall of the meeting are over, you can make a decree to go to the Yannan family. You go in person and try Fang Guogong's depth. Then you can go to the Lin family and Changping Liu family in the Far East. Tonight, invite Lin Guogong to come in." Palace banquet."

Um? !

The old man's face was downcast, and he quickly analyzed the meaning of Qin Huang's words in his heart.

To test the depth of Fang's thinking, then the content of this decree must be derogatory, and if Lin Guogong is invited to the palace for a banquet, it is a compliment.

A reprimand and a compliment can easily create a bigger gap in the already weak alliance of these three aristocratic families.

The Emperor Qin emphasized that the second decree was to go down to the Lin family in the Far East and the Liu family in Changping. It was obviously to do it in front of Liu Guogong.

No one of the three families was left behind, and they were all taken onto this thief ship.

Presumably tonight will be a sleepless night for these three families.

"After all, His Majesty became suspicious, and decided to take the first step to countermeasure, turning the original passivity into initiative, from a chess piece to a chess player. This trick of the emperor's mind is really beautiful."

The old man secretly guessed this way in his heart, but he only dared to sigh from the bottom of his heart, and only answered in a low voice, leaning over and saying yes.

Afterwards, Qin Huang, who had already put on a Kowloon black robe, flicked his sleeves lightly, and strode towards the meeting hall.

About ten minutes later, he entered the hall from the right side, and there was a huge long table as far as he could see.

All the people participating in this discussion had already taken their seats. When they saw Empress Qin get up together, they bowed to salute.

Today is the first day of August. According to the past practice, a court meeting needs to be held at the beginning of each month to discuss some big and small matters.

Although last month’s court meetings were held at least five times, rules are rules and should not be changed easily.

It's just that the interval is so short, theoretically there is nothing to discuss, this trip is just to go through the motions and check in.

However, just as Emperor Qin sat down, the current patriarch of the Chu family in Zhenbei, Chu Xiong, Chu Guogong said in a deep voice:

"The former director of the Logistics Bureau passed away on duty. This position involves a lot. This is a big matter. There should be no vacancy for a day. Your Majesty needs to elect a new candidate as soon as possible."

"Mr. Chu's words are reasonable."

Qin Huang raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, nodded with a smile, and then turned his gaze to Li Mou on the left.

"I wonder if Li Guogong can be elected?"

Hearing this, a strange look flashed in the depths of Li Mou's eyes, but he concealed it very well, and immediately responded with a smile after the flash:

"Coincidentally, report back to Your Majesty, I just want to recommend someone."

"Oh? I don't know who made Li Guogong think so much?"

"It was Qin Mo, the Marquis of Guannei who made great contributions to sweeping out traitors and quelling civil strife for our Great Qin Empire a few days ago." Li Mou replied.

After he finished speaking, his eyes glanced around the long table, and then continued on his own:

"The day before yesterday, the Marquis of Guannei suppressed the three heavenly kings with one hand, breaking the riots in the Daqin Prison, and he is only twenty-three years old now, with a heart full of sincerity and loyalty to Daqin..."

Li Mou began to put gold on Qin Mo's face, almost saying that he is the number one hero since the founding of the Great Qin Dynasty.

All the senior officials under the long table understood what they said, they just wanted to add some chips to the competition. This kind of thing happened often in the past, such as the deputy director of the Mechanical Affairs Department not long ago.

However, in the eyes of the three Yannan families, there are differences.

They are in a high position, their horizons are wider, and they see more, so they think more.

There is nothing wrong with what Li Mou just said, but the question and answer between him and the Emperor of Qin just now, coupled with the close relationship between the two parties, and the vague posture of an alliance, it seems to be discussed in advance.

It seems that Qin Mo was promoted to the position of director of the logistics bureau this time in the court deliberations.

This is not a good thing for the three Yannan family.

So, before Li Mou could say anything, Fang Xiang, who was sitting opposite him, impatiently raised his fingers and tapped the table a few times, forcing in some discordant voices.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the past, only to see Fang Xiang's expression was indifferent, and he said slowly:

"I think that Qin Mo's son can never be in the logistics bureau."

After saying that, the atmosphere in the hall changed quietly.

Everyone couldn't help but look terrified, they could already clearly predict that in today's court proceedings, there would definitely be countless flashes of swords and swords.

Fang Xiangzi habitually ignored these gazes, and still stated his sufficient reasons on his own, during which the two patriarchs of the Far East Lin family and the Changping Liu family gave a few words of help from time to time.

Situations like this have happened countless times in the past ten years.

Everything seems to be the same as before.

But no one noticed on the long table. Qin Huang looked at Fang Xiang with a faint gaze deep in it, hiding some other meaning.

It seems to be scrutiny, but it also seems to be speculation.

Obviously, he did it deliberately just now, in order to take a look at Fang Xiang's attitude.

See what Fang Xiang wants to do.

How did the Yannan clan know where the corpse was hidden, and why did they steal the coffin.

…

…

The court council lasted for more than two hours. The five aristocratic families were arguing endlessly at the long table, and the situation gradually escalated. There was a hint of a fight.

But at the moment when the gunpowder wire was about to ignite but did not ignite, Qin Huang intervened just right.

He smiled and left a sentence: "The Marquis of Guannei is young and promising, he is also a young hero, and he can be of great use. The director of the Logistics Bureau is not considered inferior."

Afterwards, under the astonished gazes of everyone, Fang Xiang and the other three's gloomy eyes, he got up and left.

This time in the court game, it is obvious that Qingyang Li family won the victory.

Of course, after this incident, Li Mou must give some of Li's inherent benefits to the royal family, which is the tacit understanding that should have been at the long table just now.

But Qin Mo didn't know this.

He has already left the imperial capital, and came to a certain place in the mountains hundreds of miles away.

In the empty and uninhabited mountain area, there is a shallow pit with a radius of three feet. Inside the pit are three open coffins. There is steaming air in the coffins. Under the huge sun, it looks so weird. .

Qin Mo stood hanging in the air, condescendingly scanning the three strange corpses inside the coffin.

The tiny ice crystals hanging on the corpse are the extremely cold air transformed by his super lungs. This is to keep the corpse fresh and prevent it from rapidly decomposing under the high temperature.

After he moved the three coffins out of the restricted area of ​​the royal family last night, he came all the way here. He dug a hole and filled some soil, and then returned to his home and fell asleep peacefully.

Wait until the next morning when I got up and shared a breakfast with Li Tiangang before I started to investigate carefully.

He obviously didn't want the Qingyang Li family to get involved in this matter, otherwise it would be easiest for the coffin to arrange a place directly with Li Mou.

This is not distrust of Li Shi, it's just that he doesn't want to show off before verifying his inner guess.

After all, spiritual awakened people are too mysterious and weird, and their terrifying parasitic methods are so pervasive that they may plant some seeds in your brain at some point.

Now that I think about it carefully, the reason why there were so many ghosts in the Li family in the first place, if there wasn't that powerful spiritual awakener who did it secretly, Qin Mo would never believe it.

But this is already a previous matter, so there is no need to say more at this time.

Qin Mo's pupils moved slightly, quietly opened the perspective, and cast his gaze on the three strange dead bodies at his feet.

While absorbing the energy of the sun, his eyes penetrated the surface of the skin, and he saw deep blood vessels, as well as broken internal organs, organs, bones, etc.

After scanning around in this way, Qin Mo didn't find anything abnormal, and then he increased the perspective again, silently activated the microscopic sight, and began to observe deeper cells.

This time, Qin Mo scanned the brains of three people.

At the same time, he has launched mental perception, narrowed the range of perception, strengthened the accuracy of perception, and checked the brains of the three of them inch by inch, just like an anti-virus software.

After scanning like this for more than five minutes, Qin Mo's expression froze suddenly, and a sharp light shot out from his eyes.

I saw a small green seed reflected in the depths of his pupils.

The seed is very thin, very small, like a grain of dust, lying quietly in the deepest part of the brain, without any movement.

Including Xia Zu!
