Chapter 31 Winning people’s hearts

capital.

On the street, a black carriage was slowly moving forward, and the driver was none other than Dillon.

In the carriage, Li Wuji closed his eyes and sat quietly in the middle, leaning on the carriage, silent.

Cao Zian knelt respectfully at the door of the carriage, with his head lowered and gratitude on his face.

The destination of their trip was Yeyu Palace where Pang Xun's granddaughter lived.

After a night of thinking, Li Wuji decided to rescue Pang Xun's only remaining descendant from the sea of ​​​​fire.

For him, Pang Xun had both grudges and kindness, but no matter what, Pang Xun was dead, and the past events could not be investigated as right or wrong. The only thing he had to do now was to let the more than a thousand innocent souls in the East Palace rest in peace and serve as the crown prince.

, the Crown Princess seeks justice, so that at least he can feel better.

The relationship between him and the empress was destined to last forever.

To accomplish this, he must have sufficient strength, and Pang Xun's old team is an indispensable part.

If he gives up this little junior sister he has never met, even if Pang Xun's old subordinates are willing to assist him, there will inevitably be a gap in his heart. If he rescues this little junior sister, then Cao Zian and others will definitely give up.

This move is just a way for him to win people's hearts.

"Does the old man know about the Pang family and his granddaughter?"

After a long time, Li Wuji asked calmly.

"Already know."

"But my lord has said that this may be God's punishment for him, and he cannot blame others."

"My lord also told us that we are not allowed to tell the young lord about the young lady. Whether we save her or not, it will make the young lord embarrassed and even cause trouble for the young lord."

"But we really don't want to see our lord's only bloodline living like this in the world, so my subordinates dare to disobey the lord's orders and beg the young lord to try to rescue him."

Upon hearing Li Wuji's question, Cao Zian turned around quickly, knelt in front of Li Wuji, and said respectfully.

"What kind of place is this Ye Yu Palace?"

Li Wuji opened his eyes and asked thoughtfully.

What Cao Zian said about Pang Xun's order not to mention his granddaughter's arrest to him really surprised him, and the resentment towards Pang Xun in his heart inevitably diminished.

"Reporting to my young lord, this Yeyu Palace is a property of Lord Jiu of Yindu. It is an art museum specially built for the royal nobles in the capital. Non-residents of the emperor are not allowed to enter. It is heavily guarded. This is what we have been trying to do.

The reason why rescue efforts repeatedly failed.”

Cao Zian replied hurriedly.

"Master Jiu of Yindu? Who is he?"

Li Wuji raised his eyebrows and asked.

"In the capital, in addition to the Five Elements Division and the Duyingwei two major yamen, there are also various secret forces entrenched in the capital, and the ninth master of Yindu is the most powerful one. It is rumored that there are dignitaries in the court who are secretly supporting him."

"This man's name is Tu Jiu. Because he made his fortune by opening gambling houses, there are no less than fifteen large and small gambling houses in the capital, and the daily cash flow is piled up, so he is called Yindu Jiuye by the people.

.”

"This man has great magical powers. It is said that even the people guarding Ye Yu Palace are elite soldiers who have retired from the army. We have broken through several times and these people are indeed very skilled in martial arts."

Cao Zian looked at Li Wuji and said calmly.

After hearing Cao Zian's answer, Li Wuji curled his lips and became curious about this so-called ninth master of Yindu.

"By the way, I want to ask you something."

After a moment of silence, Li Wuji spoke again.

"Young Lord, please speak."

Cao Zian bowed his hands and said hurriedly.

"Have you ever heard of Qingxuanmen?"

Li Wuji looked at Cao Zian and asked slowly.

"I've heard of it."

"The Qingxuan Sect is a force affiliated to His Highness the Crown Prince. It was the force that Empress Xiaoyun called the Prince's private army. The so-called Qingxuan Sect actually means that there are two factions in the sect. One faction comes from the army, and the other faction is called the Prince's private army.

For Qingmen, there is a faction from Jianghu called Xuanmen."

Cao Zian replied seriously.

"Is there any contact?"

Li Wuji's eyes lit up and he continued to ask.

"No, because my lord supported Empress Xiaoyun's provocation of emperor, Qingxuan Sect and us have become mortal enemies. Their hatred of us is no less than their hatred of the empress."

"Even if they meet, they will be incompatible with each other."

Cao Zian sighed, with a look of helplessness on his face.

After Li Wuji listened, he didn't say anything more. He just felt that if he could also take Qingxuan Sect under his command, his strength would be even more powerful.

"Sir, we're here."

At this moment, Di Long's voice came from outside the carriage.

As the words fell, the carriage slowly stopped and stopped opposite Yeyu Palace.

Li Wuji stretched out his hand to lift the curtain of the carriage and looked at Ye Yu Palace across the street.

This was the first time he appeared openly and openly on the streets of the capital, without any disguise or disguise.

He has decided to take this rescue of Pang Xun's granddaughter as an opportunity for him to officially shift from the Jiuyou Realm to the bright side of the capital.

At this time, Ye Yu Palace can be said to be the most brilliantly lit place in the entire capital, and its level of excitement is not comparable to that of Wuji Tower in the Nine Nether Realm.

There was an endless stream of high-ranking officials and dignitaries coming in and out. The gorgeous geishas stood at the door to greet them. Dozens of strong men wearing black costumes and carrying weapons stood guard around the Yeyu Palace.

His face, as well as the murderous look in his eyes, seemed to be telling him not to let strangers in.

"It's him."

At this moment, within sight of Wuji, a short and bloated middle-aged man stepped out of a carriage, casually took out a large handful of banknotes and stuffed them into the chest of a geisha at the door.

, hugging the geisha while laughing wildly, and walked in.

"yes."

Di Long, who was sitting on the carriage shaft, turned around, bowed his hands, and respectfully agreed.

Immediately, under Li Wuji's instruction, the carriage continued to move forward, slowly passing by the gate of Yeyu Palace and gradually disappearing into the street.

However, not long after Li Wuji's carriage left, a figure flashed in the alley not far away. After glancing in the direction of Ye Yu Palace, he disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

Li Wuji took the carriage and drove almost a full circle around the capital before returning to the Nine Nether Realm.

He didn't plan to do anything tonight, he just came here to find a way to easily enter Yeyu Palace and take a look at the night view of the capital.

...

Under night.

On the eaves of a roof, Leng Yue, the governor of the Five Elements Division, folded his arms with his arms, his long sword close to his chest, and his brows exuded repeated killing intent. His green gown looked a bit dazzling under the moonlight.

At this moment, a figure appeared in the distance. In a few jumps, he came to Leng Yue and bowed respectfully.

"Sir, the carriage has stopped at the entrance of Jiuyou Realm. The three of them took the boat back to Jiuyou Realm. They did not get off the car and only stayed in front of Yeyu Palace for about half a stick of incense."

The figure saluted and reported.

"Yeyu Palace?!"

After hearing this, Leng Yue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and glanced into the distance, a trace of doubt flashing between her eyebrows.

"I know, keep staring."

Leng Yue thought for a moment and said coldly.

The figure agreed and disappeared under the night in a blink of an eye.

After Leng Yue paused for a long time, a sneer flashed from the corner of her mouth, she jumped off the eaves and quickly disappeared into the dark alley.

She has never been able to let go of the successive injuries suffered by the Five Elements Department. Although the empress has ordered Taiqing to take over the matter of Young Master Wuji, she still cannot give up.

...

The next day.

Wuji Tower.

"Enter."

After a few gentle knocks on the door, Li Wuji said lightly.

As the door opened, Di Long and Cao Zian slowly walked in carrying a box and placed the box in the center of the room.

Immediately afterwards, Dillon reached out to open the box, took out a round coarse cloth bag, and threw it directly to the ground with a loud sound.

Cao Zian took out the short knife from his calf and made a slit in the bag.

A short, bloated, middle-aged man rolled out of the bag!

It was the man I saw in front of Yeyu Palace last night!

However, he was already unconscious at this time, his face was red, and it looked like he had drunk a lot of wine last night.

Di Long walked to the table and picked up the hot teapot, returned to the man, and poured the hot tea directly on the man's face!

"Ugh!"

A scream like a slaughtering pig rang out. The comatose middle-aged man struggled to wake up and looked around in horror. Then he found that his hands and feet were all tied up, and two people around him were looking at him coldly.
