Chapter 98 The only person to fear
An uncertain search began in Jinglin, at least in Nangongshan's view.
After Li Feibai left, Lin Tianchong poured a cup of tea for Nangongshan.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Bai is working so hard, could it be that we are being suspicious?" He held back this sentence for a long time.
"I also hope that we are being paranoid. Such a prodigy would be terrible if he were an enemy." A chill flashed across Nangong Shan's back.
"Actually... please forgive me for taking the liberty to say something." Lin Tianchong suddenly knelt on the ground, clasped his hands and lowered his head, hesitating.
Seeing this, Nangongshan immediately helped him up and said: "There is no need to give this big gift. You are the person I trust most. If you have anything to say, it doesn't matter."
"If Mr. Bai is a secret agent of the enemy country, he can just ignore the prince's condition, so why bother to treat him?"
Lin Tianchong struggled to say this, for fear of being blamed by Nangongshan.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Nangongshan replied: "Yes, that's why I have been reluctant to believe that he is a secret agent of the enemy country. I only sent people to investigate secretly. I am afraid that he has a bigger purpose. Saving me is just to achieve the goal."
It's just a means to his end."
"If that's the case, then his intention... is unimaginable!" Lin Tianchong was shocked.
In these years, the biggest move of Zhu Guo and Jiang Guo's secret spies was to assassinate officials of Wei Guo's court. If Li Feibai didn't even care about the life of Nangongshan, the King of Qi, then he must have big plans.
The cold wind blew by, and the tea in the cup had already cooled down, causing ripples. Nangongshan rubbed his swollen head, stretched his hands to his shoulders, and tightened the mink coat.
Qingyi Division and Nangong Ding listened to the investigation results of Liu Renfang's case. Although their most important goal is to catch the "White Tiger", the real culprit of Liu Renfang's assassination has not yet been found. This is always a problem for the Wei royal family.
Hidden danger.
"Siwei, we have conducted a comprehensive investigation again on He Yingwu, Zheng Gongquan and Lin Tianchong, but we still found nothing unusual. No matter where they were born, their daily behavior or even their official behavior, there is nothing special about them.
"Xu Yuanzhong stood in Nangong, bowed his head, and reported the investigation situation.
"Have you visited the place where they were born?" Nangong Ding asked.
"I have visited them all and there are no problems."
Could it be that the three of them are not the real murderers? Nangong Ding guessed in his mind, but did not say it out loud.
"Continue to investigate, subtle clues are often hidden in our misunderstandings, don't let go of any clues." Nangong Ding had no choice but to order.
"Yes, Si Wei."
"Wuji, what's going on at Bai Fei Li these days?" Nangong Ding turned to ask Xiao Wuji.
"Your Majesty, he has been dressing up recently and running to Zuihong Mansion."
"Disguise yourself and go to Zuihong Mansion?"
"It should be called Tao Yiju! The Madam of Zuihonglou was fined one million for short money, so she had no choice but to sell Zuihonglou. As far as we know, Zuihonglou was bought by Xu Qianqian and is now being converted into a teahouse.
Taoyiju will open in three days," Xiao Wuji reported.
"Bought by Xu Qianqian?" Nangong Ding said suspiciously.
"Exactly, this Xu Qianqian almost killed Bai Feili's uncle and nephew last time at the Huisheng Hospital for his own safety and reputation. Later, Bai Feili held a grudge and even took possession of him by force. Perhaps Xu Qianqian had already accepted his fate.
Now the two of them are actually together." Xiao Wuji seemed a little unbelievable that the once famous prostitute in Jinglin was ruthlessly deprived of her by a country boy for the first time.
"Humph, you must retaliate. Although he is a genius, he still can't change the villager's character." Nangong Ding said with a smile.
Immediately, he suddenly realized something and immediately said:
"No, this is unreasonable!"
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Xiao Wuji was confused.
"You said Zuihonglou was bought by Xu Qianqian, and Bai Feili often went to the palace in disguise to visit her?"
"Exactly."
"Do you think it's common sense that a prostitute from a brothel is richer than the old bustard?" Nangong Ding said thoughtfully.
Indeed, as a part-time worker, no matter how much you earn, will a boss earn more? It’s a simple and easy-to-understand truth.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of this?" Xiao Wuji still looked that naive.
Although he has been with Nangong Ding for many years, his inference ability does not seem to have improved much.
"Also, why does Bai Feili have to disguise himself every time he goes to Xu Qianqian's place? If it is just because he is close to Xu Qianqian, there is no need to do so." Nangong Ding raised the point again.
"The only explanation is that he disguised himself to hide his identity as the medical officer of Prince Qi's palace." Xiao Wuji's eyes lit up and he finally thought of the key point.
"Yes, since that's the case, Xu Qianqian bought the Zuihong Mansion in name, but I'm afraid the real owner secretly is King Qi!"
Hearing this, Xiao Wuji suddenly realized: "So that's the case, but Your Majesty, why did Prince Qi buy Zuihong Mansion?"
"I'm afraid, this is still Bai Feili's idea. Think about it, we hold the Qingyi Division in our hands, and the intelligence source is unmatched by King Qi. They are doing this just to increase their intelligence sources and reverse their disadvantage."
"What information can a teahouse provide?" Xiao Wuji was puzzled.
"Don't underestimate these teahouses, restaurants, and brothels. Often, private information that our Tsing Yi Division cannot get into can be gleaned in these places, and it is absolutely untrue."
Hearing what he said, Xiao Wuji immediately said: "Your Majesty, how about I just find an excuse to charge Tao Yi Ju'an with collaborating with the enemy and get rid of him?"
Nangong Ding sat up straight, leaned back on the chair, and said: "In the past, I would have agreed to what you did, but now, no!"
"Why?"
"Because the gift was in vain!"
"he?"
"Yes, with him in Prince Qi's residence, it is impossible for us to frame Tao Yiju. If we fail to frame Tao Yiju, it will ruin the reputation of our Qingyi Department, and we will lose more than we gain." Nangong Ding spoke decisively.
"My lord, is that boy really that powerful? Is he worthy of you?" Xiao Wuji was a little unconvinced.
"The aura about him makes me think of a person unconsciously. This person is the only person I fear in this world."
"who?"
In Xiao Wuji's heart, Nangong Ding was omnipotent, and he found it incredible that he could say such things as being afraid of someone.
"It's my master." Nangong Ding didn't want to directly say it was 'White Tiger' because he was afraid of affecting the morale of everyone in the Tsing Yi Division.
"Bai Feili's arrogance and the light radiating from his body are very similar to my master." Nangong Ding's voice became cold and trembling.
Xiao Wuji didn't speak again. He turned his head, looking thoughtful, as if he was thinking about Nangong Ding's words.
