Qi Xiao asked Chi Yue to change his face.

After all, rumors of a dignified prince fighting with someone in private are really ugly.

What's more, they didn't have any evidence to prove that Li Sheng was related to Luo Yu's case, so it was impossible to directly arrest and torture him, so it was more logical to change his identity and walk in the rivers and lakes.

Qi Xiao handed over the letter of challenge to Li Sheng, and invited him from the guild hall to a deserted house.

"Bai Fei?"

"Yes."

"Isn't the Hanchen Sect already destroyed? Are you really a disciple of Tianyujiangu Shanmo?"

"Don't you know if you try it?"

"Han Chenzong is wanted by the court of Chen Guo, how dare you wander around the Yuan capital like this? I'm really curious."

"Han Chenzong is wanted by the court? Why didn't I know?" Qi Xiao laughed, showing a sly smile on his ordinary face, "How did you know?"

"The name of Tian Yu Jian Gu Shan Mo is known all over the world. I came to Chen Guo from thousands of miles just to have the honor to learn a thing or two from the ancient predecessors, but the world is unpredictable, which is a pity."

"Since you know the news of my master's death, why didn't you go back to Qi, and instead appeared in Yuanjing?"

"In addition to Tian Yujian, Chen Guo also has other well-known masters. Since they are here, it's not worth making a trip for nothing."

"So, I came at the right time, please enlighten me."

Enough talking nonsense, fighting is the real thing.

Ever since Qi Xiao left Fuzhou to enter Yuanjing, he hadn't used a sword in the past two months, thinking that his swordsmanship would be somewhat unfamiliar, and he didn't know how capable this Li Sheng was, so although his sword was sharp, it was cautious in both offense and defense. .

Li Sheng is an old man, and when he saw Qi Xiao's sword coming out, he knew that he was not arrogant and reckless, but the cautiousness he showed the moment he drew the sword also showed that he had fear in his heart.

Feeling timid before fighting, he is courting death!

Li Sheng took out his broad sword and swung a powerful slashing move, powerful enough to break gold and jade. Facing Qi Xiao's sword, he didn't defend and counterattack, but instead suppressed Qi Xiao's sword, forcing him to back up again and again.

is a master.

Qi Xiao laughed, it was exactly what he wanted, if the name was not worthy of the name, it would be really boring.

Qi Xiao retracted his sword and spun his body to dodge Li Sheng's saber lightly. His saber is strong and hard to restrain. Naturally, he is not as dexterous as Qi Xiao, but Li Sheng's saber is not slow at all, like a sticky knife. Something happened to Qi Xiao, and he followed closely.

Qi Xiao's long sword is as cunning as a snake, and Li Sheng's sword seems to be about to be touched every time, but Qi Xiao slips away. If he just dodges like this, with Li Sheng's experience, it won't take long to drive Qi Xiao to nowhere. In the situation where Lu Ke retreated, he had to catch his blade. At that time, Li Sheng was sure to kill Qi Xiao with one blow.

But Qi Xiao has always used offense as defense, and advances to fight back. Li Sheng is fierce, so he avoids his edge and finds other tricky places to keep probing.

Although Gu Shanmo is famous for his sword, but Han Chenzong's internal strength and mental skills are the foundation of a century-old martial arts.

The internal strength of Hanchenzong is not a domineering and strong technique, but a gradual and endless force. No matter what kind of weapon is used as a weapon, the internal strength of Hanchenzong can adapt. The internal force wraps and absorbs the weapon into a part of the body. It seems to let the weapon give birth to the spirit, no longer stick to the moves, so that the opponent has no moves to break.

Li Sheng found it more and more difficult as he fought. At first he just felt the pressure but didn't know where the pressure came from. Qi Xiao's sword moves were tricky but not subtle. Instead, it was Li Sheng's own knife that was crushed to death by Qi Xiao. Every time he swung the knife, it was like throwing a knife like a sea, pushed away by the waves, dragged away by the sea, and it became more and more difficult to draw the knife.

Li Sheng's forehead was covered with sweat, and he would lose if this went on.

Qi Xiao still had a smile on his face, which became more dazzling and arrogant.

Li Sheng gritted his teeth, and the saber's posture changed immediately, from fierce and heavy to extremely fast, the blade cut the wind into fine pieces, and Qi Xiao was surrounded by dense white blades with cold light.

Qi Xiao's complexion also changed suddenly, with killing intent in his eyes, the blade of the sword pierced out from the dense light of the sword, breaking the net surrounding him with a sword, like a broken bamboo, but stronger than Li Sheng's first sword How fierce.

Li Sheng was startled, and took Qi Xiao's sword forcefully, but unexpectedly, this sword was infused with Qi Xiao's all-out internal force, and Li Sheng was pushed several feet away.

Li Sheng had just stood firm when the back of his neck suddenly felt cold, his eyes darkened and he passed out.

"Father!"

"Zong Sheng, tied him up."

Qi Xiao sheathed his sword, "Chi Yue! I need a place to hide."

Chi Yue appeared from the dark and said, "Yes, please follow me, Your Highness."

The anger that appeared on Qi Xiao's face was not concealed at all, he had already won the victory just now, Zong Sheng would not have shot for no reason when Qi Xiao was not in danger, there must be some reason, Chi Yue still can't figure it out for the time being.

But it must have something to do with Li Sheng's sudden change of tactics, and Zong Sheng also realized the problem immediately.

So Qi Xiao's purpose changed, from probing to prison.

There is a secret room in the deserted house, which is just right.

Otherwise, it would be very inappropriate for the three of them to walk on the street in broad daylight with an unconscious person.

Qi Xiao glanced at Chi Yue and nodded slightly, appreciating his thoughtfulness.

Li Sheng was thrown into the secret room.

Before he woke up so quickly, Qi Xiao asked Chi Yue, "How much of Li Sheng's sword technique do you remember just now?"

Chi Yue smiled slightly: "All."

"very good.

Then follow the original plan.

After that, I went to meet Qian Chong and Wang Tangyi for a while. "

"What about Li Sheng?"

"Originally, if he was not suspected, all he needed was to sleep peacefully for a day and a night.

Now, I'm going to interrogate him myself. "

Chi Yue looked at Qi Xiao, smiled and said, "Your Highness, let me do such dirty work?"

Qi Xiao glanced at Chi Yue, and asked, "Is there any news exchange between Tiance Camp and Xuanji Camp?"

"Naturally there is."

"Then go and check this Li Sheng.

He is not the real Li Sheng. "

"Oh? Just because he suddenly changed his sword technique? Maybe Li Sheng also learned other sword techniques?"

Qi Xiao turned to face Chi Yue, and looked at him: "You want to trick me?"

"Chi Yue dare not.

His Highness is holding the "nothing happened" card, so Chi Yue should obey His Highness' orders.

It's just that His Highness doesn't tell me anything, so it's hard for me to help. "

"If I know who he is, I don't need you to check."

Qi Xiao refused to say, and Chi Yue had no choice but to take orders and leave.

Qi Xiao stood in the secret room, with only two lights in the dark, Qi Xiao just looked at the tightly bound man on the ground, Zong Sheng picked out a hidden poison pill from behind his teeth, and then tightened his mouth .

"Zong Sheng, you also recognize that saber technique, I'm not mistaken."

"Master, that's him, the bandit in Fenglin Mountain.

It should undoubtedly occupy the office. "

Qi Xiao took a deep breath, and suddenly laughed: "I really don't know if it's my luck or not.

Luo Yu's case was not found out, but Li Sheng was pleasantly surprised. "

"But if Xuanjiying verifies his identity, Li Sheng will be taken away."

"So, before he is taken away, let him speak."

"Yes."

***

Qi Xiao didn't go to Dali Temple in the afternoon, Pei Hao was busy writing documents for Luo Yu's case, he thought that the case was almost closed, Qi Xiao didn't need to come to Dali Temple every day like Ying Mao, so he heard the servant Pei Hao was a little surprised when he passed it on.

"See Your Highness the Ninth Prince."

"Master Pei, don't be too polite."

Qi Xiao didn't want to waste time exchanging pleasantries, so he simply went straight to the point, "Is Mr. Pei really busy with Mr. Luo's case right now?"

Pei Hao frowned and couldn't help sighing.

Case closed?If the murderer is not caught, how can the case be closed?Gyeonggi Metropolitan Government arrested so many people, but none of them confessed to the murderer.

And Cao Weishan's old fritters didn't intend to scrutinize him at all. When he met yesterday, he repeatedly persuaded Pei Hao to "close it as soon as it's good", and quickly closed the case.

"Master Pei, the murderer has not been caught yet."

Pei Hao looked up at Qi Xiao: "What does Your Highness mean?"

"I want to investigate thoroughly."

Pei Hao was taken aback.

Pei Hao can see Qi Xiao's cleverness very clearly these days, he is very similar to His Majesty, he is bold and quick in doing things, he is also very thoughtful, and knows how to advance and retreat, His Majesty really had a foresight when he reused him.

Pei Hao admits that he has a high regard for Qi Xiao, but Qi Xiao is the prince after all, if he wants to occupy a place in Yuanjing, this case must be handled beautifully, he has done it, since he has done it, why should he conduct a thorough investigation?

However, to thoroughly investigate Luo Yu's case, defying His Majesty's intentions is too much, it will do no good at all, it will only cause trouble for Qi Xiao himself, why does he want to investigate?And why do you have to tell yourself?

"Master Pei, do you want to close the case here?"

Pei Hao frowned, he looked a few years older in vain.

Of course he didn't want to close the case, he just waited for Cao Weishan to hand over the criminal to Dali Temple, he would definitely retry.

Dali Temple is a place to uphold Dachen's laws, and those who commit crimes must be punished, not to mention the crime of murder can be lightly indulged? !

"Since Mr. Pei is unwilling to close the case in a hurry, then I have an unfeeling request, and I hope Mr. Pei will help."

"Why is this, Your Highness? You know you can't do it."

"And why is Master Pei?"

Pei Hao let out a long sigh: "Therefore, those who have laws and regulations should not use deceitful tricks."

He has stayed in Dali Temple all his life, and he no longer thinks about the government, but he still wants to keep this three-acre land, at least to sweep the snow in front of his house.

But Luo Yu died suddenly.

Having been a colleague for more than ten years, how can Pei Hao bear the heart, how can he not be angry, how can he close the case without investigation? !Even if there are more involved, even the prince and powerful officials, he will investigate at the cost of his life!

Seeing Pei Hao clenching his teeth tightly, Qi Xiao knew that he was right. Pei Hao was a loyal and upright person, completely different from Cao Weishan. He didn't need to say anything at all, and Pei Hao had no intention of giving up at all.

"Master Pei wants to investigate this case, so you might as well let me investigate. If His Majesty blames you, please ask Mr. Pei to save me."

Pei Hao was stunned, not to mention what Qi Xiao meant, what was he going to do?
