After fifteen years of cultivation, he finally reached the pinnacle of the first rank!

Chapter 77 Giving Gifts
Gong Lishan and Ji Feiyun looked at each other but did not speak.

At this time, Fu Yu thought for a moment, his eyes narrowed, and he said:
"Feiyun, immediately inform the four elders of Taiyin Yuanzong of what happened in Cangyuanhou's mansion in my name. Although Madam Zhu and Cang Yuning are dead, the connection with Taiyin Yuanzong cannot be broken."

Hearing this, Ji Feiyun nodded and then asked:

"Then we also have to fully investigate the case in Cangyuan Marquis's mansion?"

Fu Yu nodded slightly and said:

"Since the Master Constable has requested this, we can just do as we are told."

Gong Lishan narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"The Third Prince and the Second Prince belong to the same camp, and the matter of the Cangyuan Marquis's Mansion involves Concubine Ji. If we can get some leverage on them, this matter will have both advantages and disadvantages."

"However, with the Divine Constable backing us up, as long as we're always careful and don't offend those important figures, there won't be any major problems."

"You're right."

Fu Yu glanced at Gong Lishan approvingly and said calmly:
"We are all just small people, but if we want to climb up, we must learn to survive in the cracks. Only then can we see the light of day one day."

At this moment, his eyes moved, and he looked at the other party and suddenly asked:

"How's the investigation going on with the three wanted criminals of the Death-Faced Old Man?"

Hearing this, Gong Lishan shook his head and said:

"I was just about to report this to you. I didn't find the Hidden Killing Order on any of the three of them. I also sent people to find their temporary hiding place, but after searching thoroughly, they still couldn't find the Hidden Killing Order."

Fu Yu thought for a moment and said slowly:

"The Hidden Killing Order has appeared in the world and has caused several murders in Shangyang City. I have been investigating this matter for nearly half a month and finally tracked it down to those three people. I can confirm that the Hidden Killing Order must have fallen into their hands."

"Is it possible that the Hidden Killing Order has been taken by Captain Cang?" Gong Lishan asked.

"Given Cang Yinyue's personality, he should know his place and not get involved in such a hot potato."

Fu Yu shook his head slightly and said:

"Wait a little longer. The Hidden Killing Order is extremely special. Even if it is hidden by someone, the Hidden Killing Pavilion will be able to detect it."

"As long as the Hidden Killing Order remains in the hands of the same person for more than twenty-four hours, the Hidden Killing Pavilion will announce the identity of the owner."

"And within the next 24 hours, if the other party still holds the Hidden Killing Order, then the Hidden Killing Pavilion will dispatch assassins to assassinate the holder."

Hearing this, Gong Lishan and Ji Feiyun looked at each other. Ji Feiyun shrugged and said:

"Honestly, if it were me, I wouldn't dare touch this thing. The Hidden Killing Pavilion is a very famous assassin organization in the martial arts world. Even the masters of heaven and man can hardly escape their assassination. Those who robbed it really don't fear death."

Gong Lishan sighed lightly and said:
"There's no shortage of desperate criminals in this world, and the temptation to take charge of the Hidden Killing Pavilion is simply too great. There will always be people willing to take the risk."

"Moreover, some ambitious and extremely confident people will not easily give up this once-in-a-decade opportunity."

……

Tianjin Guard Headquarters.

Li Musheng had nothing to do in the courtyard, so he decided to perfect his martial arts of the Life and Death Talisman while letting the guards assigned to him by Fu Qiwen act as his tour guide.

He planned to stroll around Shangyang City and take a look at the house given to him by Emperor Yuanwu.

After all, he was leaving in a few days, and he hadn't had a good time strolling around this prosperous imperial capital.

However, before Li Musheng even left the house, he began to receive a steady stream of greetings from various forces.

Almost all of his brothers, princes, court ministers, and many princes and nobles sent gifts.

Li Musheng naturally had no intention of dealing with these people, so he asked the Tianjin Guards to deal with them.

However, when he looked at the various gold, silver, and rare treasures that filled the small hall, he couldn't help but sigh:
"What a fortune! I can't spend all this wealth in my lifetime." Li Musheng has been practicing in the martial arts school for the past fifteen years and has almost never left Shun'an City. As an apprentice in the martial arts school, he has no worries about food and drink.

To be honest, this was his second time experiencing the feeling of getting rich overnight.

The last time was when Emperor Yuanwu said he would give him a house and money.

Not bad.

Not only has he reached the ceiling of martial arts, but he also has money now. His life is not perfect, but it is not far from it. If he doesn't lie down and wait for death like the eighty-year-old Lao Deng, it seems a bit unreasonable!

Li Musheng touched his chin, a thoughtful look on his face.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, bringing with it a fragrant breeze.

Feeling the terrifying murderous aura coming from behind, Li Musheng turned around and glanced at the strange woman who appeared.

Seeing that his hands were empty, he couldn't help but frown and asked:

"As my adopted sister, you came to visit without bringing any gifts?"

Hearing this, Li Yuanling puffed up her cheeks, her pretty face full of anger, and said:

"You still remember that I'm your adopted sister. How can you treat your adopted sister like this? The first time I was backstabbed in my life, it happened at your hands."

Li Yuanling was no longer dressed in the disguise she had in Aurora Pavilion.

She was wearing a blue Cui Yan shirt and a light blue Cui Shui thin gauze. Her eyes were like clear waves and she had a pair of dimples evenly distributed on both sides of her cheeks. When she was angry, she looked gentle and cute.

Li Musheng waved his hand and retorted with an old-fashioned remark:

"I'm doing this for your own good. You're not in any trouble now, so why are you still holding a grudge against me?"

Li Yuanling laughed, but she didn't really think about taking action. Instead, she glanced at the pile of gifts in the hall and said:
"I made quite a bit of money."

Then, she changed the subject and asked:

"Did Li Ru'an send you anything?"

Hearing this, Li Musheng was slightly stunned and asked:

"Who are you talking about? Is she supposed to send me something?"

"Li Ru'an is your biological sister, the eldest princess of Dali."

Li Yuanling gave him a displeased look, then picked up the gift book on the table beside her and started flipping through it, as if trying to find the other person's name.

At this time, Li Musheng spread his hands and said:
"Don't look for it. There's no such person's name. She didn't give me any gift at all."

"Even after your identity was recognized by His Majesty, she never came to see you?"

Li Yuanling frowned. She knew that Li Ru'an didn't care about finding his own brother.

But he didn't expect the other party to be so cold and heartless, and he ignored Li Musheng and didn't even come to see him.

At this time, Li Musheng shook his head and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, she came here last night. She stood on the roof and looked at me for a while, but then left."

At that time, Li Musheng had just returned from the palace after finishing his business when he discovered a woman sneaking into the headquarters of Tianjin Guard and accurately finding the courtyard where he was.

However, he saw that the other party had no intention of killing, and the masters of Tianjin Guard did not stop him, so he ignored it. Now he thought that the other party was probably the eldest princess.
