After Chen Yu reported his experience to the government, it attracted considerable attention, but the investigation by the government office has not yielded any results until now.

As time goes by day by day.

What Chen Yu was worried about did not happen next.

As if nothing happened that night, no uninvited guests came to disturb him after that night.

However, a major event happened in the capital recently.

Even Chen Yu, who is on the line at almost two o'clock every day, has heard of it.

The incident happened on the third day after Chen Yu was attacked.

Li Xuebin, who was the fourth place in the test, was actually taken away in the inn. His life and death are still uncertain, and there are obvious signs of struggling at the scene.

As soon as this incident happened, the entire capital was shaken.

Some people dared to do anything to the people who participated in the test after the test, and even after the ranking, they already had the fourth place in the test with the title of tribute.

As this incident unfolded, before Li Xuebin was arrested, the fact that Chen Yu was also attacked was revealed, which immediately put many tributes at risk.

But what is reassuring is that it was heard that the incident had spread to the palace on the day it happened, and the current emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the incident.

Especially all the people from the rivers and lakes who have come to the capital recently, once they find out the culprit, they will definitely be executed.

After this order was issued, nothing similar happened again, and even some petty theft seemed to have disappeared in the capital.

...

After Chen Yu learned the whole story of this incident, he also thought about what happened to him that night, thinking deeply.

The original target was him, and he didn't mean to hurt Chen Yu. When he realized that Chen Yu was a bit difficult to deal with, he turned his attention to Li Xuebin, who was the fourth place in the test.

Not only that, Chen Yu, who knew the strength of the man in black that night, knew that if the two were the same person, and Li Xuebin had never learned martial arts, or if his martial arts were not high, it would be impossible to leave traces of struggle. Now there are obvious traces left.

Besides, facing such a scandal, even if the imperial court does not stop the rumors from fermenting, it will not deliberately spread them.

But judging from the current situation, with such a big fanfare, it seems that everyone should know about it.

The reason for this is either that the relevant personnel have brain problems, or the official has full confidence in bringing Li Xuebin back intact.

Another point is that when the other party attacked Chen Yu, it was at a somewhat remote corner. The patrolling officials could explain why they didn't hear the movement, but Li Xuebin was in an inn near the center of the capital in the official accommodation. Inside and around, the level of vigilance should be quite high, but it didn't cause the slightest movement.

The last doubt, if the other party is not afraid of angering the imperial court, they can definitely do something on their way to Beijing to rush for the exam. Of course, this can also be explained. Choosing to do it in the capital can also explain why the choice is still among the top performers in the exam.

Thinking about these things in his mind, Chen Yu could draw a conclusion.

Either there really was such a force hiding in Daliang that was so huge that it was not afraid of revenge from the Daliang court. Not to be trifled with.

Either this matter itself was done by the Daliang court, who wanted to use it as an excuse to clean up the Jianghu, but the target was one or several of the five sects, or the entire Jianghu, because Chen Yu didn't know the strength of the court, so he didn't know much.

However, Chen Yu was more inclined towards the latter, and it was the Daliang court who did it himself.

This can also make a reasonable explanation for the fact that the man in black would rather get hurt than make a fatal attack on Chen Yu that night, and it also makes sense in other respects.

...

Another dark night.

In the capital, the secluded courtyard where the man in black went after failing to deal with Chen Yu.

At this time, in a side room, six people had already gathered.

The leader was the middle-aged man at that time.

They are members of the intelligence network specially established in the capital by the five largest Jianghu sects in order to communicate with each other.

But this is only on the surface. In fact, they still have their own intelligence networks. The sectarianism between the various sects is not so easy to eliminate. Maybe the hatred between these sects is greater than the court. .

Now they are only forced to stand together on the surface.

The middle-aged man said to the other five people with an ugly complexion, Who did it?

There are still so many of us in the capital. Now that the capital is under martial law, even I may not be able to get out under such a strict search. Now many of our people have been arrested by the government.

After the five people below looked at each other, the person on the far right hesitantly said, That... I might know who it is?

If Chen Yu was here, he might be able to tell from his figure that he was the man in black that night and the one who took Li Xuebin away.

Who is it? Is it one of us? The middle-aged man asked eagerly.

Um……

The middle-aged man frowned, If you have something to say, why are you hesitating? There are no outsiders.

The person I'm talking about is related to... the Yuanyang faction.

After speaking, the man looked at the other of the six people.

The man was a little anxious, Wang Tianyang, don't spout blood. What does this have to do with our Yuanyang faction?

Did you forget? The young master of your Yuanyang faction is also in the capital? The person called Wang Tianyang retorted.

What's the matter with our Young Master? He just came to the capital to see the world, how could he cause trouble. After saying this, the man himself felt a little lacking in confidence.

He still has a little understanding of his own young sect master. His strength ranks among the top among his peers, and he has reached the late Houtian stage. Moreover, he has practiced kung fu so well that he can retreat even in the face of the peak Houtian master.

He is also extremely arrogant and has a violent personality. It is really possible to say that this matter was done by their young master.

But that is definitely not the case.

Heh, do you believe this yourself? You don't know what your young sect master looks like? Another person sneered at this time.

Yes, it's fine if it's in other places. Wherever the capital is, you let him mess around. It's still in such a special period. Do you think your Yuanyang faction is still the same Yuanyang faction as before?

That's right, that's right, it's a big mess.

All of a sudden, the rest of the people laughed at the Yuanyang faction crowd.

They also had a lot of grievances in their hearts, and they just took this opportunity to vent their anger. They didn't do anything, and now they were worried, and their lives might be in danger at any time.

But you have no evidence to prove that our young sect master did it.

You'll know after listening to me. When I met the young sect master of the Yuanyang sect, I was in a brothel.

At that time, your young sect master and that Li Xuebin fell in love with a girl at the same time, and after a fight, Li Xuebin wrote a poem on the spot and won the competition.

As for that Li Xuebin, according to my investigation, after coming to the capital, he only had this conflict with your young sect master.

After finishing speaking, Wang Tianyang gave the rest of the people a look that you can understand for yourself, and then kept silent.

And the middle-aged man who has been quietly listening to the exchange of several people gave Wang Tianyang a vague look of appreciation, he almost believed the story.

But regardless of whether this incident happened or not, after today, even if someone really went to investigate whether there was a conflict between the young sect master of the Yuanyang faction and Li Xuebin in that brothel, they would come to a positive conclusion.

And if Chen Yu is the target, one of the protagonists of this story will change from Li Xuebin to Chen Yu.

Okay, everyone, stop arguing. The most important thing now is where is the young sect master of the Yuanyang faction?

The rest of you look at me and I look at you, and they all express that they don’t know.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man laughed a little in his heart. At this level, he still wants to fight against the court?
