Chapter 414: The Shameful Master Brother
Qin Zhaoyue didn't look at his aunt, coughed twice and continued:
"Third, regarding the possibility that the late Crown Prince might still be alive..."
Her expression became a little more serious.
If this person were still alive, the impact on the existing imperial power would undoubtedly be devastating.
Moreover, he is cruel and has a history of slaughtering royal heirs.
The ruthlessness and decisiveness of this assassination in the palace are quite similar.
"Right now we are short on manpower and energy, so there is no point in saying more.
The core mission of Xuanji Guard in the near future is to protect the safety of the Queen Mother and all the royal heirs.
After the affairs of the four major families are settled, we will select elite troops and make long-term plans.
Since the truth can't be found out in a short time, there's no need to distract yourself too much at this moment."
"Fourth, the culprit of this assassination,"
She turned her gaze to Jiang Wuya who was trying to reduce his presence.
"He's a figure of your Tianyan Sect Master's generation, right?"
"Junior Sister!" Jiang Wuya jumped up with a cry like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
"This really has nothing to do with me! God knows!
When my master was still around, that old guy left the sect because his life span was coming to an end and there was no hope of a breakthrough.
After that, there was no news from him. I thought he had died outside a long time ago. I really didn't know anything about it!"
He was sweating profusely and looked at Chu Xinglan beside him anxiously,
"Junior Sister Chu, please say something! Is what I said true? Do you know anything about this?"
Chu Xinglan's face was calm, and he nodded slightly.
"It is true that Master Yun Miao left the sect at an early age.
But I have been in Fengjing for many years, and I have no way of knowing whether Sect Master Jiang is still secretly in contact with him."
"Hey! Junior Sister, what are you saying? You're pushing me into the fire pit..."
Before Jiang Wuya finished wailing, Qin Zhaoyue spoke again. Her voice was not loud, but every word was heartbreaking:
"The poison that Queen Mother is poisoned with right now is exactly the same as the one used to assassinate my eldest sister during the flood relief efforts. Both are extremely vicious life-giving poisons.
How should Sect Master Jiang explain this?"
Her eyes were cold as she stared straight at Jiang Wuya.
Jiang Wuya's face turned green, and he almost swore to the sky.
"That was all done by that traitor Yan Wujiu!
I later investigated the matter and reported it to the court!"
He was complaining in his heart.
Yan Wujiu was indeed found at that time, but because of the little friendship between them and the fact that they were not willing to serve the imperial court in vain, they only gave him a slight punishment and let him go.
If I had known that I would be implicated today, I should have cleaned up the mess right then.
I really regret it, I regret it so much!
Qin Zhaoyue's expression remained calm, and he simply asked:
"These two troublesome people are all closely related to your Tianyan Sect.
You're telling me this is all just a coincidence?"
Jiang Wuya was speechless, feeling like he couldn't explain himself at all, and then...
Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, they saw the leader of the Tianyan Sect, a top master of the second level, suddenly kneel down with a "bang" without any warning.
The voice was shrill and mournful, as if someone had suffered an injustice that had lasted for eternity.
"Unfair, Brother, I am truly wronged! Junior Sister, you must believe me!
Since I took over as the headmaster, I have kept the mountain gates closed and disciplined my disciples.
I am the one who is wholeheartedly pursuing the realm of cultivation and doing my duty honestly.
That old villain Yun Miao and that traitor Yan Wujiu have not been in the sect since I took over.
The sins they committed cannot be blamed on me, nor on the Tianyan Sect.
I swear on my lifelong cultivation that these things have absolutely nothing to do with me or the Tianyan Sect!
If you don't believe me, Junior Sister, come back to the sect with me and I will turn you upside down.
Whoever you suspect, I'll deal with him right there and then, no questions asked, okay?"
Chu Xinglan silently took a small step to the side, as if trying to distance himself from the person on the ground.
This kind of head senior brother... is really embarrassing.
She also took the opportunity to invite the Sixth Prince to the sect. The abacus beads were about to burst in her face.
The atmosphere in the imperial study suddenly became a little weird.
After all, he is the leader of one of the top sects in the world, a strong man of the second level, and he can walk sideways in the entire martial arts world.
In the end, he was so shameless, kneeling down without hesitation, crying so sincerely...
However, Qin Zhaoyue was not moved at all by his "true confession".
“I heard that the sorcerer lineage is best at deducing the mysteries of heaven.
Tracking down the person behind the scenes shouldn't be a difficult task for Sect Master Jiang, right?"
"It's not difficult, not difficult at all!"
Jiang Wuya jumped up from the ground with astonishing speed, slapping his chest loudly, "Leave it to me, Senior Brother!"
Qin Zhaoyue saw that his attitude was good and nodded, "How can I cooperate with you?"
"No need for anything," Jiang Wuya took the responsibility.
“The three plates of heaven, earth and man are gathered together at this moment, their auras connected.
Unless someone from the First Rank Realm personally takes action to conceal the secret, he will not be able to withstand the combined efforts of the three of us.
I will lead the formation, and Junior Sister Chu will assist me.
Junior Sister, just relax your mind and don't try to suppress the power of the Heavenly Plate. Let it respond naturally to us."
He spoke lightly, but everyone was worried.
The Third Princess quickly asked, "Will this method have any impact on saving our Queen Mother?"
Jiang Wuya immediately assured: "Absolutely not. I am just using the power of the three plates connected to deduce and reflect cause and effect. It will not interfere with the circulation of my junior sister's true energy."
He did not delay any longer and took the lead in activating the territory in his body. Chu Xinglan also responded by activating the power of the human disk at the same time.
Qin Zhaoyue didn't need to do anything to clearly sense the mysterious energy between the three people again.
In an instant, they were tightly connected together, and a vast and ancient power began to flow and condense between them.
At the same time, in the Zhenbei Pass Wengcheng far away in the northern border, Yan Wujiu, who was meditating in his room, suddenly opened his eyes...
