Taiping Inn

Chapter 179: Clues begin to emerge

There are only three reasons for killing people in the world: love, hatred, and profit.

The female clan has no grudge with the Qian family. If it is said that killing Qian Yibai can be said to be a love kill, then killing Qian Yulong must be for profit.

Li Xuandu’s biggest doubt is, where does the profit come from?

If the female sect, Daozhong sect, and Wudao sect support Qian Yulou, they want Qian Yulou to take over the Qian family and seek wealth from the Qian family. Now Qian Yulou is dead, even if they kill Qian Yulong, they will follow the news. Where to start?

Li Xuandu asked softly: "Sheng Gongfeng, Fan Gongfeng. Li wants to ask for advice on something, and I hope you can solve your doubts without hesitation."

After Sheng Zikuan and Fan Zhenyue looked at each other, Sheng Zikuan said, "Mr. Li, it's okay to talk."

Li Xuandu said: "In your opinion, after Brother Qian unfortunately died, who is most likely to take over as the head of the Qian family?"

Sheng Zikuan pondered for a moment and said, "The head of the Qian family has always come from the eldest house sect. Now the only people in the eldest house are the Great Elder and Qian Jiner. The Great Elder is old and the Elder's Hall is still there. The position of the great elder is also extremely important, not inferior to the head of the family, so it is unlikely that he will take up the position of the head of the family again. If the great elder makes up his mind to let the chief corps of the corps and the head of the family, then Elder Qian Jiner is the most suitable A candidate. ”

Fan Zhenyue nodded and said, "The eldest son has a leave of care. If Elder Qian Jin'er is asked to take the position of head of the family for the time being, and when the young son grows up and returns the position of head of the family, it will not be impossible."

Li Xuandu asked, "Have you ever had any contact with the Female Sect?"

"No?" Sheng Zikuan hesitated, "I have never heard of Elder Qian's relationship with the Pin Nu Sect, I only heard that her relationship with Governor Jingchu is extraordinary."

Fan Zhenyue also shook his head and said, "I have never heard of it before."

Li Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Let me ask the two to report to the Great Elder first. Li has other things."

The two nodded and agreed: "Mr. Li, please give in."

The Elders' Hall, although the discussion has not been completely finalized, it is almost certain that the other elders are unwilling to accept it, but they cannot imagine it.

After the meeting was over, the great elder still sat in the ancestral hall, while the other eight elders left one after another. Only Qian Jin'er, who had left the earliest, came to the end this time.

At this time, Qian Jin'er was not as proud as she was about to take over the Qian family's power, but instead seemed to be full of worries.

The old man smiled kindly and said, "Jin'er, are you afraid?"

Qian Jiner said respectfully: "I am really afraid of my ancestors. After all, Jiner never thought that she would reach her current position."

The old man smiled and said, "It's good to know that it's afraid. If a person loses his awe, he will easily cause trouble for himself. Take Yulong as an example. He said that Zhao Shixian was very ruthless, but what about him? He just sat openly in the lobby of the Governor's Office. , let the chief officer of the Sansi Yamen stand aside, what is this? This is the first appearance of being domineering, so he should suffer this disaster."

Qian Jin'er remained silent.

The old man gently pulled the white jade flowing beads in his hand and continued, "But don't be too timid. The burden of the Qian family is carried on the shoulders of the head of the family. If the head of the family cannot support his own door, then the money How can a family gain a foothold in the world?”

Qian Jin'er said: "Brother and Yulong's death are quite strange. Is the ancestor..."

The old man stopped pulling the beads in his hand and said, "I have entrusted someone else to investigate this matter, and I believe that the person can give me a satisfactory answer."

Qian Jin'er hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything after all. Who is the person who is chasing this matter? If the ancestor is willing to say it, he will naturally say it. If the ancestor is unwilling to say it, then there will be no word to be revealed.

The old man sighed: "The Qian family has experienced countless ups and downs over the years, and there are times more dangerous than this, but the Qian family still survived, so no matter whether it is the ten evil sects or the twelve righteous sects, it is not necessary. I'm afraid, and I'll deal with it as I should."

Qian Jin'er saluted respectfully: "Jin'er has written it down."

The old man waved his hand and said, "Go, think carefully after you go back, what should I do."

Qian Jin'er slowly withdrew from the ancestral hall.

After leaving the ancestral hall, Qian Jiner boarded the carriage and headed to her residence. There are two most important places for the Qian family, one is the Qian family's mansion, which is the place where the head of the family lives, and the other is the Qian family's ancestral home, which is where the eldest elder of the Qian family lives for many years. These two places are not far apart. , all in the south city, while the other Qian clans were scattered in various parts of Jinling City, and Qian Jin'er lived alone in a single-family courtyard in the north city.

The small house is not big and the location is also in a remote position. There are few people coming here on weekdays, but when Qian Jiner got off the car, she found a person standing in front of the mansion. She was dressed in a literati, but a long knife hung around her waist. This reminded Qian Jiner of a poem for no reason: "The general has not hung the seal of the marquis, and he often has a bloody knife under his waist."

After Qian Jiner was slightly surprised, she put on her usual dignified smile: "Young Master Li is waiting for me?"

The person coming was Li Xuandu. He looked at Qian Jin'er and said, "I want to ask Qian for advice on some things."

Qian Jin'er glanced at the "cold beauty" on Li Xuandu's waist and said, "Young Master Li, please come to the mansion and talk again."

Li Xuan nodded.

Qian Jin'er waved her hand and signaled the coachman to leave first, and then she personally led Li Xuandu into the mansion.

The house is not too big, and it is far inferior to the magnificent Qian family mansion. However, it is not inferior in terms of refinement. It can be seen that the owner has also spent a lot of thought and is really managing this place as a permanent residence.

The two sat down separately, and a maid served fragrant tea, and then Qian Jiner sent them out, leaving only her and Li Xuandu in the room.

Li Xuandu did not touch the covered bowl, but just looked at Qian Jiner: "If my guess is correct, Mr. Qian should become the new head of the Qian family."

Qian Jiner frowned: "What does Mr. Li want to say."

Li Xuandu said: "I want to ask Mr. Qian if there is any hidden story about Brother Qian's death, or whether Mr. Qian has known about it for a long time? .

Qian Jiner frowned even more, and his tone was a little more unhappy: "What does Mr. Li mean by this? Do you suspect that I killed Yulong?"

"Of course I don't mean that. "Li Xuandu said: "I'm just thinking about one thing. After Brother Qian died, who benefited the most? Not the evil people, not the governor of Jiangnan, not the dead Qian Yulou, and not me, Li Xuandu, but the Qian family, who is expected to become the first female head of the Qian family. "

Qian Jin'er's face has become cold, "After all, I still suspect that I am involved in Qian Yulong's death. "

Li Xuandu shook his head and said: "When the clam and the crane fight, the fisherman benefits. But the reason why the clam and the crane fight has nothing to do with the fisherman. "

Qian Jin'er slightly emphasized his tone: "Mr. Li, you are a world-famous sword master. I have always heard that swordsmen never drag their feet when they draw their swords. People are like their swords. Mr. Li, please speak directly, okay? "

Li Xuandu said: "Then I will start from the beginning. "

"Please speak. "Qian Jin'er put on an attitude of listening attentively.

Li Xuandu said bluntly: "I checked Brother Qian's body and found that he was pierced through the chest with five fingers, and finally died under the 'Xuan Yin Sword Qi'. There are only two sects in the world that can use the 'Xuan Yin Sword Qi', one is the Yin Yang Sect, and the other is the Female Sect. However, the Yin Yang Sect usually uses weapons to use the 'Xuan Yin Sword Qi', and only the Female Sect uses the five fingers of the palm. Moreover, after Brother Qian's death, his mistress Liu Yushuang disappeared. Considering that she is a woman, I think the person who killed Brother Qian is from the Female Sect. "

"Female Sect?" Qian Jin'er's eyes flashed with a strange color, and he emphasized his tone, "Just relying on Liu Yushuang to infer that it was done by the Female Sect, I am also a woman, so Mr. Li also suspects that I am a member of the Female Sect?"

"Of course not. "Li Xuandu slightly emphasized his tone: "What I just asked was whether Mr. Qian knew about this matter? I did not accuse Mr. Qian of participating in this matter. Please make sure to distinguish and do not confuse. "

At this point, Qian Jiner could not continue to accuse Li Xuandu. She put away the coldness on her face, and her attitude softened a lot. She said softly: "The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal is worthy of being the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal. "
