Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 286 The Vengeful Princess

The officials of Jingcha have basically left for a few days, and Hu Qian is still dawdling at home.

After Hu Butong thought over and over again, he always felt that this name was not good, and that name was not satisfactory, and he struggled for a long time before deciding on it.

As for the names of Rong Ning'er and Xue Ningshuang's children, Hu Qian didn't think about it either.

The Beijing investigation is imminent, and the gray silk hanging on Lianlian's body cannot be ignored, so there is nothing good for him for a while.

But even if he doesn't go to Jingcha, Emperor Guangde can't do anything to him.

However, just after making up his mind, he suddenly received a letter from Guo Yu.

After opening it and looking at it, I found that it was not only Guo Yu who signed it, but also Bai Yufeng.

A letter for two people?

After he frowned and looked at it, he finally understood what the two of them meant.

It turned out that there was a strange bloody case in Beirong Wang's family. The people from Shuntian Mansion and Jinyiwei couldn't solve the case for a long time, so Emperor Guangde handed over the case to Bai Yufeng and Guo Yu.

The two of them had no choice but to turn to Hu Qian for help.

It's this trick again...

Hu Qian was amused, the last time he asked Hu Butong to come to him for help, and now it was Bai Yufeng and Guo Yu again.

Once the matter is over, he will kill the donkey again, and Emperor Guangde has a good plan.

He immediately wrote back, saying that he had contracted a cold, and asked the two to go to Zhenyaosi for a try.

In the evening, Zhiying came to Shen Yuzhen's room, and took a Buddhist scripture casually. While talking to Shen Yuzhen, she said that she was studying Buddhist scriptures recently, so why not choose a few good names from it.

Shen Yuzhen readily agreed, but said again: "Daddy hasn't slept well for several days because of this name, even if he chooses it from Buddhist scriptures, it can only be used as an alternative or baby name."

Zhiying didn't care too much, just discussing with Shen Yuzhen.

Hu Qian stood aside, staring at the place where the gray silk stretched above from time to time in a daze.

Seeing him, Zhiying asked, "Why, are you going to the capital?"

Hu Qian was taken aback, "Why did you say that?"

"Since you're not going to the capital, why are you staring in the direction of the capital?"

Hu Qian was taken aback for another moment, then looked in the direction where the gray silk extended in surprise, and pointed out: "You mean, that direction is the capital?"

Zhiying nodded.

Hu Qian has been thinking about how to solve the matter of Huisi, but he didn't think about the direction. Hearing Zhiying's reminder at this moment, he immediately stopped in place.

It seems that this trip is still a must.

As for whether to help Bai Yufeng and Guo Yu solve the case, it depends on the situation - if there is not enough reason, then I can only feel sorry.

Thinking of this, he asked Hu Jiu to chase the letter back, and at the same time asked Xiaohuan to prepare the clothes.

On the second day, when he was about to set off, he suddenly thought that if there was a prompt to choose the difficulty again this time, naturally he would not be able to use supernatural powers.

"Gianna, come with me."

Jiao Na was taken aback for a moment, and then stepped forward in response.

Hu Qian released the white crane, took Jiaona with him, turned around and gave instructions, and then flew towards the capital.

Seeing that Baiyun retreated quickly, he arrived in the capital in less than a day.

Although Bai Yufeng and Guo Yu said in the letter that they can go directly to find them, but it is not convenient for Hu Qian to bring Jiaona, so they stayed in the inn.

Afterwards, they asked the shop assistants to report to Guo Yu and Bai Yufeng, and of course Du Jianzhi and Shen Lian also reported to them.

In the afternoon, Shen Lian came over first. Hearing that Shen Yuzhen had given birth to a son, he jumped up and down three times with joy, and said excitedly, "I'm an uncle, I'm an uncle..."

The two drank until the evening before Shen Lian left.

Before Hu Qian had time to rest, Bai Yufeng, Guo Yu and Du Jianzhi also came.

When the three of them were drinking again, Du Jianzhi said he wanted to go home to accompany his wife, so he went back.

Hu Qian picked up a piece of peanut and put it in his mouth, looked at Bai Yufeng and Guo Yu and said, "Come on, keep drinking."

Bai Yufeng and Guo Yu looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Respectfully, I really have no choice but to ask you this time, so please help me no matter what."

Hu Qian put down his wine glass and asked, "To tell you the truth, my identity is very sensitive now, and I can't easily interfere with the case.

You should know what happened to the magistrate of Liulin County last time, right? "

Bai Yufeng nodded, "I've heard about this, I heard that you caught him smuggling tobacco and sentenced him to death.

what happened?Has anyone reversed the case for him? "

Hu Qian laughed, "Reverse the case?
After the case was reported, instead of dying, he was reinstated. "

Guo Yu said: "How is this possible?"

Hu Qian shook his head, and didn't say much, "Later, the county magistrate died. I don't know who assassinated him, maybe it was the people he squeezed."

If someone else said this, the two of them might really think that the county magistrate might have been assassinated, but when Hu Qian said it so calmly, the two of them had to think about it.

Take a step back and say, how many people can Daganchao have the ability to kill a county magistrate without anyone noticing.

"He is just a magistrate, does he have such a big background?"

Hu Qian said: "Maybe he has no background, it's just that some people above don't want to make it easier for me."

Bai Yufeng said: "Jing Gong's words are serious, let alone the Great Qian Dynasty, there are few people in the world who dare to make you feel bad."

Guo Yu also said: "This is indeed true, with your supernatural power..."

Before he finished speaking, Hu Qian waved his hand and interrupted: "You must not say such a thing, it is because many people in Daqian Dynasty have such thoughts, so..."

He pointed upwards and continued: "That's why the higher-ups see me as a thorn in the flesh.

On the side of the couch, others are allowed to sleep soundly. "

Both of them had a meal, some couldn't believe it.

"Impossible, you are flattening the northwest and setting the southeast, and your achievements are so outstanding, how could you treat you like this?"

"Besides, you didn't do anything out of the ordinary..."

Hu Qian said: "It's useless to talk about this kind of thing. Today is different from the past. He has capable people around him, so naturally he won't need someone like me..."

Bai Yufeng slapped his head suddenly, "By the way, it seems like a marriage offer..."

Having said that, Guo Yu also remembered.

It's just that seeing that Hu Qian was just drinking, he didn't continue talking.

"Forget it..." Hu Qian said: "It's okay to tell you, I refused the marriage offer, so I won't say the reason. Anyway, things have changed since then."

Bai Yufeng said: "Anyway, you don't have to worry. Even if there is a rift, but with your ability, you don't have to worry about anything."

Guo Yu said: "Then, the matter of this case..."

Hu Qian nodded, "Let's talk about it first. I can help if I can. If I can't help, you will definitely understand."

Bai Yufeng said: "The thing is like this.

The emperor has a younger brother, King Beirong, have you heard of it? "

Hu Qian said: "Is it the King of Beirong who slept with twelve women one night and then fell ill for a month?"

Guo Yu showed embarrassment, "It is indeed this capable person."

Hu Qian said: "What's wrong with him, is he sick again? Or is he dead?"

"He is getting older and restrained a lot, so this time it is not him, but the concubine and the rest of the concubines."

Hu Qian immediately stopped the chopsticks in his hand, and said in surprise: "Could it be that the concubine was... killed? There are other concubines?"

"Don't dare to say that!"

Guo Yu stopped Hu Qian and looked out at the same time, "First, the princess died suddenly, and then every few days, a concubine would die. I don't know why."

"And then? You must have checked, what did you find?"

"Shuntian Mansion and Jinyiwei, including the two of us, went to investigate, but only found some non-existent things, and there was no progress at all."

"Tell me specifically, which things are not true."

Guo Yu said: "The matter is too bizarre, I really don't know where to start for a while."

Hu Qian said: "Of course we start with the first murder case."

Bai Yufeng said: "Let me tell the story.

About a month ago, when a servant in the palace got up at night, he suddenly saw a white shadow flashing past the window.

At that time, he thought it was a thief, so he went out with a lantern to see.

In the end, he chased him to a small yard. He knew that this was a room for storing sundries, and it was usually closed well.

But when I took a light with a lantern, I found that the door of the main room was open, and the tables inside had been cleaned spotlessly.

On the top of the table there are sixteen memorial tablets, one big and fifteen small. There is an incense burner in front of the tablets, and there are still unburned incense candles inside.

Afterwards, he hurriedly reported it, and King Beirong came to check it out in person, and found that the largest tablet was written with the title of Taizu of the Dali Dynasty.

Looking at the others, they are all divine cards of the emperors of the Dali Dynasty. "

Hu Qian became interested and asked: "The divine card of the former emperor is quite interesting, but what happened later?"

"Later, the king of Beirong ordered people to burn all the god tablets, and locked the door with three locks.

I thought it was okay, but the princess died suddenly the next day.

Next to the body is a divine plaque, which says the title of Princess Xuanyi of the Dali Dynasty. "

"From this point of view, it is Princess Xuanyi from the previous dynasty who came to take revenge."

"When something like this happened, the royal family of Beirong couldn't hide the appearance of the god card of the former emperor, and there was a lot of trouble for a while.

Although everyone said on the surface that the murderer should be arrested as soon as possible, they were all discussing behind the scenes that it must be Princess Xuanyi who came to take revenge. "

Hu Qian asked curiously: "This is really strange. There were so many emperors and princesses in the previous dynasty, why didn't they come to take revenge, but this princess Xuanyi?"

Bai Yufeng said: "It is really necessary to tell you about this matter, this Princess Xuanyi is really special..."

"How special?"

Bai Yufeng looked at Guo Yu and saw that he didn't intend to answer, so he continued: "I just heard about it, and you just listened to it temporarily.

It is said that when the imperial palace of the Dali Dynasty was breached, the general who rushed to kill him could no longer control his soldiers. After entering the imperial palace, countless soldiers were busy robbing treasures, and many people were... humiliating the palace maids, and even... …

Especially Princess Xuanyi, who is famous for her beauty, is said to have been insulted by more than 300 soldiers, and finally they hung her up and shot her dead with bows and arrows standing in the distance.

The whole hall was stained red with blood, and before she died, she shouted that she would definitely turn into a ghost to take revenge..."

Hu Qian shook his head, "In this way, even if those people were really killed by her, it would not be wronged at all."

Bai Yufeng said: "If it's true, it's fine, then it's not about the two of us, just hand it over to Zhen Yaosi.

But now, there are no traces of ghosts in Beirong Palace. "

"Who said no?"

"A demon town man."

Hu Qian nodded, "Go ahead."

"After the death of Princess Beirong, within a few days, someone discovered that the room was wide open, and the tablets and incense sticks were also the same as before.

What's even more weird is that there is a gray wood carving underneath, with the name of Princess Beirong engraved on it.

A red wooden carving with the name of another concubine written on it.

Then, within a few days, the concubine died as expected. "

"If this murderer is not a ghost, then he is indeed very powerful."

"After the two people died, King Beirong ordered his guards to guard the door of the house day and night.

However, within a few days, the guard at the door suddenly heard a sound in the room, and immediately reported it to King Beirong. After opening it, he found that there were quite a lot of memorial tablets, incense candles, and two wooden carvings.

King Beirong hurried to see the name on the red wood carving—it was the name of his most beloved concubine.

Since then, he has been guarding the concubine's side day and night, and there are guards inside and outside the house.

Later, he was so tired that he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he suddenly saw a white shadow flash past, and when he went to see the concubine, he found that she was already dying. "

"White shadow? Is it the shadow of a person, or something?"

"They say they can't see clearly. They look a little like people, but they don't look like them at the same time."

"Then?"

"Afterwards, the same thing happened again, even though the guards were standing guard in the small courtyard, the tablets still appeared, and the concubines of King Beirong still died one after another.

By now, except for the dying one, the rest are all dead.

However, the revenge has not stopped, the concubine is dead, and now it is the turn of the sons and daughters of King Beirong. "

"It's strange, why did you hold on to King Beirong? If you want to take revenge, the most important person you should look for is not..."

Bai Yufeng and Guo Yu didn't dare to answer, and remained silent.

After a long while, Bai Yufeng finally opened his mouth and said, "At first, I thought that the emperor ordered me to investigate because he wanted my investigation ability...

but now……"

He said and looked at Guo Yu, "I know that the emperor is interested in our relationship with you.

No one can solve this case except you. "

Hu Qian was about to refuse when a reminder suddenly appeared in his mind.

[Do you use supernatural powers? 】

Hu Qian was taken aback for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.

It seems that there are double magical powers available.

But this case is much more difficult than the previous ones, and there is only Jiao Na by his side, so it may be difficult to solve the case without supernatural powers.

But then I thought about it, the big deal is that it can't be broken, let Emperor Guangde and the others have a headache.

So I immediately chose not to use supernatural powers.

Just when I thought that the next reminder would definitely double the reward, the reminder appeared again.

【Do you want to leave the room? 】

He was taken aback immediately, and it took him a while to realize that he was asked to investigate the case in this room!

Do not!
