low-key is king

Chapter 1335 Why do you say that?

"Master Xiang, the marshal's talisman is such a valuable item, it must be kept in a very hidden and safe place, how could it be stolen?"

Lu Xun watched coldly, taking into account the faces of everyone in the hall, and then asked softly, which revealed the biggest doubt in everyone's mind.

Just ask how important the marshal's talisman is, and it's not an exaggeration to say that the right prime minister sleeps with it in his arms at night.

Even if it is placed in one place, it is extremely secretive, and it is likely to be heavily guarded.

But even so, the marshal's talisman was still lost. Lu Xun believed that the right minister, Situ Xian, would not make fun of this kind of thing.

Moreover, the marshal's talisman had been lost for several days, and with the strength of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, he hadn't found it yet, which already explained some problems.

"This is exactly what makes Truth feel strange. The place where the soldier talisman is hidden is extremely secretive. Normally, no one can find it close to it except for Truth. Therefore, Truth concludes that the strength of the person who stole the soldier talisman must be extraordinary!"

Speaking of this, Situ Xian felt a little helpless, and even faintly uneasy.

He had a guess deep in his heart, is it that His Majesty the Emperor wants to change his position?

After all, in the entire territory of Wei State, there are only a handful of strong men who can steal the Marshal's Talisman of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion without anyone noticing, and it is very likely that they are strong men sent by the Wei family.

This right-hand minister has a lot of human rights, and he is an existence with hundreds of millions of people under one person in Wei State, so he will naturally attract a lot of envy and hatred.

Those guys in the court dare not say anything on the surface, but they may make trouble secretly.

Just like the Zuoxiangfu mentioned by Yanbo earlier, I am afraid that the rightxiangfu has always been regarded as a thorn in the flesh, right?
Situ Xian was not afraid of normal power struggles at all, but a gentleman is good at guarding against villains, if someone goes to whisper in the ear of the emperor in private, then he will be passive.

If this incident was really done by the royal family of the Wei family, then there must be a bloodbath waiting for the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. It has not yet erupted, and perhaps some people are waiting for the opportunity.

Therefore, Situ Xian must retrieve the Marshal's Talisman within this limited time, otherwise the huge Wei State Right Prime Minister's Mansion will collapse in one fell swoop.

"Then, has Mr. Xiang ever thought that someone is guarding and stealing?"

Just when Situ Xian was thinking wildly, the voice of the boy in black came again, which made him slightly startled, and many guests in the hall were also thoughtful.

"But... the place where the soldier talisman is hidden, only the truth is known, and there are no guards there, how can others know?"

Situ Xian shook his head slightly. In fact, it was true. In order to keep it secret, the place where he hid the military talisman was indeed a place that was difficult for outsiders to set foot in, and a certain level of strength was required to enter.

Therefore, after discovering that the soldier talisman was lost, Situ Xian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he didn't dare to tell others, only discussing it with the chief guest of the prime minister's mansion.

"That's right, Mr. Xiang, think about it, the place where you hide the military talisman is so hidden that even the people in this house don't know about it, let alone outsiders!"

Lu Xun thought about the problem from another angle, but he didn't have any evidence right now, so he continued to say, "Please take me to the place where the soldier talisman was lost."

"follow me!"

Situ Xian didn't say much about this, since he was helpless now, he would treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

In case this young man named Lu Yuan, what can he really do?
After everyone followed Situ Xian for a while, a quaint building appeared in front of them. Except for Lu Xun, everyone knew that this was the ancestral hall of the Situ family.

And there is nothing wrong with placing the marshal's soldier talisman in such an important place, after all, it is a gift from the emperor, and offering it is a kind of respect.

However, after Lu Xun looked around for a while, his mind changed, and he secretly thought that the ancestral hall looked solemn and solemn, but the defense forces around it were extremely weak, and there were hardly any guards in sight.

Although this kind of place is an important place in the right minister's mansion, if someone really wants to steal treasure, it may be easier than other places, and it will be more invisible.

Crunch!

Situ Xian pushed the door open, and at this moment, Lu Xun's powerful sensing ability finally sensed a special and obscure aura, which was clearly in a certain corner of the ancestral hall.

"Tsk tsk, it's not unreasonable for the Right Prime Minister's Mansion to dominate the Wei family!"

According to Lu Xun's perception, the figure who was hiding in the corner, and even his figure was a bit blurry, his own cultivation might not be lower than that of Situ Xian and Xu Jian, and he had also reached the half-step eighth realm.

It's just that the man is extremely old, he should have reached the point of dying, and he will run out of fuel at some point, and even his breathing is extremely weak.

"Master Gong!"

Xu Jian was obviously aware of this person's existence, and before the others could react, he had already respectfully stepped forward and bowed, which shocked the other ministers and guests.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the real uncle, who has guarded the ancestral hall for more than a hundred years!"

Seeing the astonishment on the faces of many guests, Situ Xian could only give a brief introduction. Hearing the name of uncle in his mouth, everyone was even more surprised, secretly thinking that the Situ family really had a profound background.

"Xian'er, do you think the incident is not big enough? Why bring so many people here?"

Don't look at Situ Gong as if he was about to run out of fuel and die in the next moment, but his eyes were quite bright when he raised his head at this moment, and the sound of scolding in his mouth also gave everyone a very novel feeling.

After all, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion is dominated by Situ Xian alone, so who would dare to question him in such a tone?

But when they thought that the other party was Situ Xian's uncle, they were all relieved.

Situ Gong's question is understandable, on the surface it is the ancestral hall of the Situ family, but secretly it is where some treasures are hidden.

Now that Situ Xian brought so many people here, some things might not be hidden.

"Uncle, there are many people and strength is great. If you can't find the soldier talisman, then let's stop talking about it!"

Although Situ Xian was respectful to this uncle, he didn't have too much fear. Hearing what he said, Situ Gong stopped talking, obviously also aware of the consequences of losing the marshal's talisman.

In a sense, as the elder of the Situ family guarding the ancestral hall, the responsibility for the loss of the marshal's talisman was more than half of the responsibility of the Situ Palace.

It's just that Situ Xian is quite filial, he knew that it was impossible for his uncle to collude with outsiders to harm him.

That being the case, the second master of the Situ family is still very intimidating.

"Here, Mr. Lu, that's where the soldier talisman is placed!"

Situ Xian didn't go to care about his uncle, but pointed to a place next to the many memorial tablets, and said softly.

But when Situ Xian's voice came out, many guests turned their eyes there, but they didn't see the strange look in Situ Gong and Xu Jian's eyes at all.

The place where Situ Xian pointed his finger was a corner where the ancestral tablet of the Situ family was placed. There was no tablet there, but a small platform.

Lu Xun was noncommittal, walked over quickly, tapped the countertop lightly, and then the countertop automatically cracked a gap, revealing a small space inside.

A piece of yellow cloth was spread inside the grid, but the things on the yellow cloth had long since disappeared.

It seems that what Situ Xian said is right, this is where the marshal's soldier talisman was originally placed, but unfortunately the soldier talisman has been stolen.

"How about it, Mr. Lu, do you have any clues?"

Situ Xian approached calmly, and upon hearing his question, Xu Jian's eyes sparkled again from the depths of his eyes, as if there was a trace of sarcasm and a sneer.

"Master Xiang was joking. The one originally placed here shouldn't be the real marshal's talisman, right?"

However, when Xu Jian and Situ Gong were looking at the black-clothed boy, this sentence came out of this man's mouth. The tone was like a smile but not a smile, and it contained something special.

At this time, the other ministers and guests finally reacted.

Secretly thought that the secret compartment of the ancestral hall is so easy to find, and it will open automatically with a single tap, which is not in line with Xiangye's city mansion.

"Is Xiangye going to take a test on Lu Yuan?"

Some people with keen minds even thought of a deeper level, secretly thinking that this might be another test set by Situ Xian for Lu Xun.

If he couldn't even see this point, Mr. Xiang would definitely feel disappointed in this Lu Yuan, and maybe he would kill people to silence him, after all, it was such an important matter.

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

Situ Xian didn't end the test just yet, seeing him raise his eyebrows, he asked directly.

Maybe he also wants to know how the other party can tell when he just arrived?
"Isn't that fake marshal's talisman in Xiangye's arms?"

The smile on Lu Xun's face remained undiminished, then he raised his arm and pointed at Situ Xian's chest, which made the onlookers stunned for a moment, wondering if he could even sense this?
"Haha, Mr. Lu is worthy of being Mr. Lu. With this sensory ability alone, the truth is impressive!"

It wasn't until this time that Right Prime Minister Situ Xian really laughed heartily. Seeing him laughing out loud, he reached into his bosom and took out a strangely shaped object.

It looked like a small dragon, but its body was thin, as if someone had cut the dragon's body and cut it in half.

The one in Situ Xian's hands is naturally half of the Marshal's Talisman, but it is not a real imperial gift, but a forged one by himself.

Certain auras on it, under the induction of those with a strong heart, must have nowhere to hide.

"The truth has wiped out the aura in this secret compartment, how did Mr. Lu see it?"

Situ Xian was indeed a little curious at the moment.

You must know that he had made some preparations before, and with his half-step eight-level cultivation base, it is not surprising to do this, but he did not expect that Lu Yuan would still spot it at a glance.

Hearing Situ Xian's words, many guests beside him pricked up their ears, including Xu Jian and that uncle Situ Gong.

After all, the two of them just now are the only two who know the truth.
