Chapter 184: Heavy fog, sad song turns into a smile, strong wine passes through thousands of rounds

In the past, it was a game between Xu Xiaoxun and the Huang family and the major forces of Tianfeng Mansion. Now the situation is different from the past. Xu Xiaoxun is dead, and the matter has entered Feng Linsu's eyes. Compared with the deputy commander of Jiangbei Road and the highest official of Zhen'an Division, the Seventh Prince is not good enough.

Yi Chen is not Feng Linsu, but he, the head of the Huang family, is not the seventh prince either.

The head of the Huang family was silent for a while. "Since you have come from afar, our Huang family is willing to give 100,000 taels of silver to the Zhen'an Division to repair the house and do our best to help you investigate the case."

"One hundred thousand taels is not enough, I want one million taels!" Yi Chen said firmly.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Even if I sell my Huang family, it is not worth so much money." The head of the Huang family jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"Don't worry, head of the family. The Huang family doesn't have to spend any money on this matter, and we can even make a profit." Following Yi Chen's voice transmission, Master Li spoke.

"The Huang family will take the lead in donating silver and persuade all the wealthy families and merchants in Tianfeng Prefecture to contribute money together. The head of the Huang family will donate 200,000, and the rest of the people will donate the remaining 800,000. We will split the proceeds 20% and 80%!"

When these words came out, even the head of the Huang family was shocked.

Qi Yuan and others were also shocked.

They all looked at Yi Chen, who was drinking tea with a smile, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Don't worry, patriarch. In order to cooperate with your lobbying, I will first raid the family that has done the most evil today. The market vacancies they leave behind will be divided among you major forces, and the family property will be confiscated."

"Brother Qi, this matter will be handled by you later. Bring the files and evidence from the Zhen'an Division over. Don't do something like punishing without teaching."

The major wealthy families and merchants have become so big because they have a lot of troubles behind their backs.

Yi Chen took a sip of tea and spoke slowly.

The tone was extremely cold and threatening.

Now that Xu Xiaoxun is dead and the matter has come to light, it is the misfortune that the Tianfeng Mansion deserves. Unless their old connections can be passed on to Feng Linsu, all their efforts will be in vain.

Just like how Qian Yueru used this excuse to uproot the Chen family in Longjiang Prefecture, Yi Chen was not worried at all about raiding a few families under the pretext of inspecting Xu Xiao's case.

"Your Excellency has good tactics."

"I need some time and will give you an answer tomorrow." Patriarch Huang said through gritted teeth.

He is also a smart man, how could he not hear Yi Chen's voice-over.

Knock on the mountain to scare the tiger! Drive the tiger to devour the wolf! The wealthy merchant he copied today was not only to lobby him to open up the situation, but also to threaten him.

If you can’t raise the one million taels, you can use the Huang family as collateral!

If we can take the market share of the family whose property was confiscated today and distribute it to others to appease other families, we can start with the Huang family tomorrow!

…

…

After leaving Huang's house, Qi Yuan's face was full of excitement.

Unlike other prefectures, his Tianfeng Prefecture's Zhen'an Division has suffered too much humiliation. The major forces in Tianfeng Prefecture are intertwined, and the interest structure has long been determined. His Zhen'an Division can only do things carefully. There has never been such a domineering situation as today.

"Lord Yi, whose house do you think we should raid?" Qi Yuan said excitedly.

The two captains under his command also had beaming faces.

"Just pick the one with the worst reputation. This is a small matter. Brother Qi, tell me first, how did Xu Xiaoxun, the governor of the city, die?"

With just a few words, the rise and fall of a family was decided by Yi Chen. Yi Chen had been in the city for half a day before he began to inquire about Xu Xiaoxun's case.

After a few days, I think the experts from Zhen'an Division have found out the cause of Xu Xiaoxun's death.

"My Lord, Governor Xu died from the Yin Huan Heart-stimulating Palm."

"Lord Xu has been investigating the missing persons case near Tianfeng Mansion for many years. It seems that he has made a major discovery recently. I have worked with him for many years and found that his whereabouts were mysterious a few days before his death. Then it was reported that he died in the mansion."

"Oh, Lord Xu has a lover, whom he married ten years ago. After Lord Xu got into trouble, she disappeared without a trace, as if she had evaporated from the face of the earth."

"I suspect it was done by the Yin Huan Demon Sect. Only they have such experts and strength, as well as the ambition to challenge our Zhen'an Division."

"The Yin Huan Demon Sect's skills are very strange. They are good at hiding their whereabouts and confusing others. I'm afraid that the disappearance of people around Tianfeng Mansion is also their secret doing."

Qi Yuan had been impressed by Yi Chen's strength and means at this time, and decided to board Yi Chen's ship. Naturally, he spilled the beans and told him everything he knew.

Although he didn't like Xu Xiaoxun's old-fashioned and conservative character, which blocked his way, he felt sad and indignant when his boss died in his own mansion for no reason after working with him for many years.

Yin Huan Jiu Xin Palm, it's Yin Huan Jiu Xin Palm again! Yi Chen's brows knitted together tightly, and he thought of his encounter with Yin Ling Fei and his experience of being assassinated.

"Could it be that the Yinhuan Demon Sect really wants to take advantage of the current changes in the world and be the first to make a big move?" Yi Chen thought to himself.

"Brother Qi, we must send someone to investigate the identity of Xu Xiaoxun's partner, the pacification commissioner." Yi Chen felt that Xu Xiaoxun's missing partner was the key figure in this case.

"Sir, I have already sent people to investigate secretly. Unfortunately, this person seemed to have jumped out of a stone. He suddenly appeared with Governor Xu, and now he suddenly disappeared." Qi Yuan said with a wry smile.

…

…

At night, there are stars but no moon.

Jinyi City, Royal Palace.

The seventh prince Yue Jinyi looked like a modest gentleman, wearing casual clothes to receive the head of the Huang family in his mansion.

Facing the smiling Seventh Prince, Patriarch Huang became increasingly nervous, and even dared to only half-pause his buttocks on the chair.

He knew how ruthless the Seventh Prince, who had supported him, was.

"So, Yi Chengzi gave you an ultimatum?"

"I underestimated this person. He is so skilled at making things happen. He is really good at using the opponent's force to defeat him."

"Your Highness thinks so highly of this man? He is quite greedy for money, maybe he can be used." The head of the Huang family said hesitantly.

"What do you think? This man has been in the city for only half a day, but he has already subdued the people of the Zhen'an Division and tied them to his chariot, and even asked you to pay for it. Do you think he is powerful now?"

"If this person can really work for me, I can let him use his money and resources as he pleases. I'm just afraid that I can't even feed him enough."

"Even his greed for money is just a smokescreen."

"Then Your Highness, should I agree or not this time?" asked the head of the Huang family in a low voice.

"The situation is stronger than people. Just do as he says. Stop the dirty work for a while and deal with what needs to be dealt with." The Seventh Prince rubbed his brow with a headache.

With a creak, the head of the Huang family left and the door closed.

The light in the hall dimmed.

Only the lanterns on both sides illuminated the face of the person at the table. His face was frosty and extremely gloomy. The Seventh Prince suddenly threw a glass wine cup in front of him to the ground, breaking it into pieces.

"Asshole! How dare Yichengzi bully me like this? I will kill him!" the seventh prince said sternly.

At this moment, the door creaked open again, and an old man in a black robe walked in.

It was the old man in black robe who had killed Yi Chen yesterday.

"Gui Lao, you're back just in time. You killed Yi Chengzi yesterday and fought with him. How good is his cultivation?"

The old man in black robe knew very well how cold and heartless this prince in front of him was beneath his seemingly tolerant face.

Especially as his practice of that evil dharma became more and more advanced, his moods became even more unpredictable and completely unpredictable.

After a moment of silence, he still didn't dare to tell the Seventh Prince that he had self-destructed his Ten Thousand Souls Banner and then escaped.

He was afraid that this prince would have other thoughts if he knew that his merits and deeds had been greatly reduced.

"Yichengzi, not bad!" the old man in black said with a stiff upper lip.

"How bad is it? Where is your Ten Thousand Souls Banner and your Ten Thousand Infants Ghost Generals? Take them out and let me see them." The Seventh Prince sneered.

I don't know how the Seventh Prince found out the truth.

The black-robed old man's expression suddenly changed when he heard this: "Your Highness, I am not..."

"Waste! You are an abandoned disciple of the Yinhuan Demon Sect. If I hadn't taken you in, covered up for you, and collected your souls, would you be where you are today?"

"I have spent so many resources to cultivate you, and this is how you repay me? Trash is trash!" The Seventh Prince laughed in anger, pinched his fingers together, and a network of black veins suddenly appeared on the body of the old man in black robe.

For a moment, the old man in black robe rolled on the ground in pain, screaming miserably, as if he was being cut into pieces by a thousand knives.

After a cup of tea, the Seventh Prince finally stopped his actions and said coldly, "Considering that you have done a lot of good things for me before, I will spare you today."

"Since we failed to kill Yichengzi this time, let's put this matter aside for now. You should activate the backup plan. It would be best if the Zhen'an Division could go to war with the Yinhuan Demon Sect."

"My great plan will soon be completed. It must not be exposed at this time. Keep your eyes on me."

The old man in black robe seemed to have been fished out of the water at this moment. He was sweating profusely. Hearing this, he felt as if he had been pardoned. He kowtowed like crazy and said, "Your Highness, rest assured. I will make sure this matter is properly handled. Otherwise, I will bring my head to you!"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Why don't you get out of here?" The Seventh Prince was furious. A jet of black magic power like a dragon hit the old man in black robe and knocked him out of the hall . He flicked his sleeves, and the vermilion door closed instantly, and the room fell into darkness again.

With a long sigh, the Seventh Prince walked out from the inner door of the hall, passed through a long corridor, and threw out a black token.

The space fluctuated, and a portal suddenly appeared in the ground, and a dark and deep suspended ladder suddenly formed.

The seventh prince walked down the dark suspended stairs.

Arrived deep underground.

A bronze door suddenly appeared at the end, with two large characters written in a flamboyant style on it.

Seal the demon!

The ancient seal script emits a faint glow, mysterious and strange.

When I pushed the door open, the world suddenly became different.

A small town appeared.

Like stacking building blocks, one wooden prison after another rises from the ground.

There were countless women and children locked up inside, treated like pigs and dogs, with numb expressions. From time to time, strong supervisors and thugs patrolled back and forth, and the sounds of entertainment could be heard everywhere. It was like a hell on earth.

"It's almost there, it's almost there, my Devil Transformation Technique will soon be complete, hahahaha!"

A series of terrifying magic patterns suddenly appeared on the face of the Seventh Prince, and he laughed like a madman.

The voice is wild, vicious and fierce!

At this time, the Seventh Prince's momentum was rising steadily, and it suddenly soared to the eighth level of the True Person Realm.

His body turned into a black rainbow light, and while everyone was kneeling, he flew towards a black palace at the end of the wooden prison.

As he approached, the black door suddenly opened and then slammed shut!

Bang! …

…

night.

After a busy period, Yi Chen pushed open the door of Xu Xiaoxun's mansion.

Want to find some possible clues.

Ever since the incident, Xu Xiaoxun's residence has been guarded by people sent by the Zhen'an Division, and no outsiders are allowed to enter.

Yi Chen frowned and looked at the empty house. There were hardly any pieces of furniture. He was speechless for a moment.

"Master Li, what's going on? Was there a thief in Envoy Xu's house?"

Li Shiye replied carefully, his words full of respect for Xu Xiaoxun: "Your Excellency, please allow me to report that Governor Xu lives a hard life, with only an old servant and a rough maid to serve him. He and Madam Shuang are both kind-hearted people."

"As for this mansion, if it wasn't allocated to Lord Xu by the Zhen'an Division, I'm afraid he wouldn't even move in."

"Except for the people from the Zhen'an Division who came in to maintain the formation, no outsiders entered."

"If Lord Xu and Madam Shuang have any extra money, they can provide porridge and medicine to poor families."

….As Master Li spoke, Yi Chen gradually understood Xu Xiaoxun’s situation in Tianfeng Mansion. He was a conservative and good man.

Be stubborn.

Such people usually isolate themselves from their colleagues.

"Master Yi, this is the room Master Xu lived in before his death. Please keep it as it is. I am not in a position to enter. Please come in." Master Li was very tactful in his words and actions.

Yi Chen pushed the door open and walked in. At this time, Xu Xiaoxun's body had naturally been collected and placed.

There were blood samples shaped like plum blossoms scattered on the long table and the ground.

Because it has been there for a long time, it has oxidized and turned dark black.

There was a piece of white paper on the desk with ten big words written on it!

"A sad song becomes a smile, and a thousand rounds of strong wine!"

The characters are like iron strokes and silver hooks, with sharp edges everywhere.

Seeing the handwriting is like seeing the person, which can reveal Xu Xiaoxun's true character.

A bronze wine cup was tilted on the ground! "What a great Xu Xiaoxun!"

It took Yi Chen a long while before he uttered a single word.

Several guesses suddenly came to his mind.

After standing quietly for a while, Yi Chen finally walked out of the room.

He is old-fashioned, upright, honest and incorruptible, and hates evil.

The evaluation of Xu Xiaoxun that I learned from the intelligence was not as shocking as the one I experienced during the actual investigation.

"Master Li, let's go."

"I will certainly seek justice for Governor Xu!"

Under the moonlight, Yi Chen's voice was sonorous and powerful.

He put away his thoughts on the game, and a fire ignited in Yi Chen's chest.

A good person shouldn't have ended up like this.

Brothers, you are so awesome. I really admire all the masters who guessed the plot.
