Chapter 117 Eight Characters
"Yes." Although Cheng Deyi was dissatisfied, he had to obey the order, so he deliberately shouted loudly.
But how can I put it, it's too fake. Chu Ci wanted to hold it back, but couldn't. He burst out laughing, "Well, if you don't want to, you don't have to go."
Cheng Deyi still said seriously: "There is no disobeying the order of Xiuyi Law Enforcement."
"Okay, okay, I spoke too much. Let's go!" Seeing this, Chu Ci pretended to be serious and made a "please" gesture as he spoke.
This time, Cheng Deyi did not refuse. He took the lead and strode out.
And precisely because of Cheng Deyi's presence, Xing Tian changed her previous intimacy with Chu Ci and didn't say much along the way.
Chu Ci didn't care. After sending Xing Tian back to Zhang Yaoyang's residence, he turned back at an extremely fast speed.
At the same time, the Fifth Prince and Fan Jingrui, who were at the gold mine outside Shenjia Village, also received the news and hurried back.
Just like that, the three of them ran into each other at the gate.
It seems that the Purple-Robed Envoy attaches great importance to Xing Tian.
After figuring out what was going on, Chu Ci immediately rushed in front of Fan Jingrui and said, "Husband, you have to help me later."
Fan Jingrui neither agreed nor refused. "My dear, this is not the place to talk. Let's go back and talk."
Chu Ci naturally understood, but in order to prevent the Fifth Prince from causing trouble, she turned her body to the side and inserted herself between Fan Jingrui and the Fifth Prince.
Can the Fifth Prince compete with Chu Ci? He could only move aside silently.
Even when they arrived at the Purple-Robed Envoy's courtyard, this situation did not change.
When the purple-robed envoy saw this, his eyes flashed slightly, but his expression did not change. He first respectfully bowed and greeted the fifth prince.
Then he said to Chu Ci and Fan Jingrui, "Please take a seat, both of you!"
Chu Ci and his wife did not hesitate and each found a suitable seat to sit down.
As soon as Chu Ci and the other two sat down, the purple-robed envoy waved his sleeves, and immediately a subordinate handed a stack of papers respectfully to the Fifth Prince.
At the same time, the purple-robed envoy explained, "This was sent from Xing Situ's hometown. It contains all the information about Xing Tian before she got married."
Chu Ci was surprised: "Is Xiuyi's law enforcement so efficient?"
Upon hearing this, the purple-robed envoy subconsciously straightened his back. He remained humble, saying, "When I learned that Zhang Yaoyang's in-laws were Elder Situ Xing, I ordered someone to record Xing Tian's information. I never expected it would come in handy now."
Chu Ci was slightly disappointed when he heard this answer. "I thought Xiuyi Law Enforcement had some unique communication tools! I got so excited for nothing."
Chu Ci's voice was loud, and the Purple-Robed Envoy and the Fifth Prince heard it clearly.
But due to the special nature of Chuci, I can only pretend not to hear it.
Although Fan Jingrui had long been accustomed to his wife's outspokenness, he still squeezed Chu Ci's palm.
Chu Ci just smiled, turned his head and stared at the Fifth Prince and asked, "Fifth Prince, besides carrier pigeons, doesn't the royal family have any falcons that dominate the sky?"
Upon hearing this, the Fifth Prince rolled his eyes fiercely: "We are the royal family, not gods. Using a falcon to deliver a message, you really think you can do it."
Chu Ci turned to look at Fan Jingrui, and when he saw Fan Jingrui nod, he believed what the fifth prince said.
Then he forced out a smile that couldn't be more fake and said to the Fifth Prince, "I'm sorry, please continue."
The Fifth Prince was too lazy to argue with Chu Ci. He read Xing Tian's information quickly and handed it to Fan Jingrui.
Fan Jingrui was led astray by Chu Ci, so he simply dragged Chu Ci to watch it together.
But, well, it is indeed much more efficient.
However, Chu Ci expressed forgiveness. In just a few pages, he really couldn't see anything abnormal about Xing Tian.
If you don't understand, just ask. Chu Ci felt that he had become much thicker-skinned after traveling through time. "I don't see anything wrong with this. What about you?"
The Fifth Prince felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't lie. "I didn't notice anything unusual either. Where's Master Fan?"
Fan Jingrui ignored the Fifth Prince's question and asked the Purple-Robed Envoy, "Did anyone go to Xing Situ's hometown specifically during the investigation?"
Fan Jingrui suspected that this information was fundamentally wrong.
The Purple-Robed Envoy had the same doubts, but he was more worried that what Xing Tian said about the true and false daughters of gold as in Chu Ci was not an isolated case, and the situation might even be worse.
Even though the Purple Envoy had experienced many strange cases, he still felt a little scalp-tingling at this moment.
Thinking of Xing Tian's unusual evaluation of Chu Ci, he could only tentatively say to Chu Ci: "Master Fan, Young Madam, you have been away from home for a long time. Why not take this opportunity to go back and visit?"
Chu Ci was extremely perceptive at this moment: "Do you believe what Xing Tian said?"
The purple-robed envoy nodded reluctantly.
Chu Ci turned to look at the Fifth Prince and Fan Jingrui, and neither of them denied it.
Chu Ci said in disbelief: "So, all of you know about this, but you're the only one hiding it from me?"
When Chu Ci said this, Fan Jingrui and the other two were stunned.
The fifth prince blurted out, "You don't know, yet you dare ask your father for the imperial sword that allows you to execute first and report later?"
Can Chu Ci say that what gives her confidence is the space deep in her soul and the countless resources within that space?
Helpless, Chu Ci could only feign confusion: "As the Fifth Prince's savior, the man who found two gold mines and saved the court from countless losses, don't I deserve to possess an imperial sword?"
Of course they are a match, the three responded in their hearts.
Seeing the three of them in a trance, Chu Ci took the opportunity to say, "Whether Xing Tian is coming for me or not, I can't leave. If possible, bring the Chu family to Lianzhou!"
"No, without the Emperor's order, exiles are not allowed to leave their place of exile. This is an iron rule."
Chu Ci was just testing the waters, but he didn't expect the Purple-Robed Envoy to refuse so bluntly.
The fifth prince didn't even make a sound.
Fan Jingrui shook his head slightly at Chu Ci, implying that her proposal was not feasible.
Chu Ci curled her lips and said, "Okay, I'll go back to Jingtian Village. My husband, please come with me! After all, there's nothing in Lianzhou that requires my husband."
The Fifth Prince was about to refuse when Fan Jingrui agreed: "I will listen to my wife."
Chu Ci finally felt relieved: "Do you two have anything else to say? If not, we'll go back and pack our bags. After all, it's not easy to go back."
Fifth Prince: ...
Purple-Robed Envoy: Who on earth provoked Xing Tian?
Chu Ci said that she was not a worm in their stomachs and could not hear their voices.
In order to annoy them, Chu Ci even held Fan Jingrui's hand all the way.
Beijing, Imperial Palace
Upon receiving the letter from the Fifth Prince and the Purple-Robed Envoy again, the emperor, who had been on the throne for many years, could not help but feel a chill down his spine.
So Feng Yan, who had been unhurried for many years, was summoned by the emperor again in just half a month. "Is it possible to predict this person's fate?"
Feng Yan also had some real skills. He only took a glance and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this fate does not exist in the world."
"It doesn't exist? Feng Yan, do you know that these eight characters were presented to me by Xing Zhang himself? These are the eight characters of Xing Zhang's eldest daughter?" The emperor was furious, but still held a glimmer of hope.
