Li Mengzhou said: "The scene of me killing Zhu Zaitian is seen by him. Even if I have only a little bit of suspicion, it is worth doing that. This is indeed a bet, but I think I can win."

Qing Yi said lightly: "You are indeed crazy."

Li Mengzhou scratched his cheek and smiled and said, "I don't live without being crazy. I don't think it's a very ordinary thing, nor do I think it's a madman's work. I'm just trying to save my life. The handle is in my hands. If the other party's thoughts are similar to me, then I'm likely to watch myself be killed. I can't put myself in this situation."

Because I misunderstood that Zhu Zaitian was peeping at Chaosi Lane, I would just kill him if he was wrong.

Now it is doubtful that Lu Changge is the real person to peep, so it is natural to attack with quick and ruthless means and speed.

But this is also a very crazy thing in itself.

Zhu Zaitian is the Minister of the Xuanzhengsi.

Lu Changge is the true disciple of Bulushanmen.

Even Li Mengzhou had to use the entire Xuanzhengsi.

This is something that ordinary people dare not even think about. If this is not crazy, what is crazy?

Xuan Zhengshi himself is incompatible with Tianshu Academy. Xu Hexian once also attacked Li Mengzhou. On the premise that Xu Hexian knew very well that Li Mengzhou and Tianshu Academy were closely related, would he really be used by such a young man as Li Mengzhou?

The craziest move was to involve Xu Hexian.

It is equivalent to causing another trouble for something that is already very troublesome, and it may even cause a big trouble to kill myself.

Qing Yi found out that Li Mengzhou was indeed very brave.

Outside the south city gate, with only three realms of cultivation, he dared to draw his sword to Zhuge Dan at the threshold of the fifth realm. Thinking about this, neither Zhu Zaitian nor Lu Changge nor Xu Hexian were anything.

Even though Xu Hexian was the strongest in the fourth realm, he did not cross the threshold of the fifth realm.

Zhuge Dan is an identity as a monk outside the mountain. Although his cultivation level at the fifth level does not belong entirely to himself, he is also an invincible existence in the lower level of the fifth level.

Compared to the level of adventure, Li Mengzhou dared to draw his sword at Zhuge Dan.

Qing Yi sighed lightly and said seriously: "The head of the hospital said that no matter what you do in the capital, he will help you wipe your butt behind, but you should not commit suicide by yourself. The head of the hospital is not omnipotent."

Li Mengzhou was silent for a moment and said, "I suddenly realized that the head of the hospital is so nice to me. Could he be my father?"

Qingyi: "..."

Li Mengzhou then shook his head again and said, "The head of the courtyard surname is Jiang, and my surname is Li, it seems unlikely, and he must be not as handsome as me when he was young."

Qing Yi said coldly: "You really don't have a clear understanding of yourself. This is a problem and needs to be treated."

Li Mengzhou smiled and said, "The thing I know most clearly about myself is this face."

Qing Yi said, "A very dark face."

Li Mengzhou immediately glared at him in shame.

Qing Yi ignored Li Mengzhou's gaze that wanted to kill, and said calmly: "If you involve Xu Hexian, you must understand clearly what the consequences will be."

Li Mengzhou breathed out and said calmly: "So I said this was a bet. If I did nothing and waited for Lu Changge to reveal Zhu Zaitian's death, I could only fight back passively. It would be very troublesome. Instead of doing this, it would be better to take the initiative, and some adventures are also inevitable."

"I hope you are right."

"Of course I'm right, because I don't want to die, and only someone else can die."

......

In front of the small courtyard in the street of Dongchengmen, a group of soldiers from Xuanzhengsi looked cold, and their right hands were placed on the hilt of the knife around their waists. The leader was a middle-aged man. In fact, middle-aged man was not very accurate. At most, he looked like he was in his thirties and was almost forty.

He was thin, with a knife hanging around his waist, and his long hair was very elegant. After being attacked by the night rain, he could also see a very smooth feeling. He had a pair of narrow eyes, faintly shining with splendor.

"Mr. Mu Nan, that's it."

A soldier came forward and said.

Mu Nan, like Zhu Zaitian and Wang Zhong who was killed by Xiao Zhinan outside the city, were both ministers of Xuan Zhengsi. The difference is that although Zhu Zaitian often followed Xu Hexian, his strength was only inferior among the ministers of Xuan Zhengsi, and Wang Zhong was able to rank in the top three, and Mu Nan was the strongest among the ministers under Xu Hexian.

He looked at the small courtyard in front of him, closed his eyes slightly, remained silent for a moment, and said softly: "En."

A group of soldiers took the order and kicked open the yard door, rushed in in a swarm, sweeping all the rooms in the yard as quickly as possible.

In one of the rooms, Lu Changge sat on the stool with a dull expression, looking at the soldiers who broke in, as if they were empty in front of him.

The soldiers pulled out their swords and surrounded Lu Changge. Mu Nan walked out of the house. The soldiers who followed him were specially preparing handkerchiefs and handing them to Mu Nan's hand. He wiped the rain on his face and hair, threw them back to the soldiers, looking at Lu Changge who was sitting on the stool and holding a Park knife in his hand. He looked around and saw a rabbit-faced mask on the table next to him. His eyes narrowed slightly and said, "Mr. Zhu was killed by the knife, and the most suitable one was Park Dao. It seems that the evidence is conclusive."

Lu Changge seemed to suddenly wake up from his sleep, looking at Mu Nan with a look of surprise, throwing away the Park Knife in his hand in panic, and stood up with a blushing face and thick neck, "This knife is not mine! Mr. Zhu was not killed by me!"

He finally understood why Gu Shiyan appeared here, and he deliberately carried a Pu sword on his back, which was the sword used by Li Mengzhou to kill Zhu Zaitian.

Under the suppression of Gu Shiyan's realm, Lu Changge was in a trance and the Qihai was in danger of collapse. When he woke up, the first sentence he heard was what Mu Nan said, and the first person he saw was also Mu Nan.

He knew he was cheated.

He clearly witnessed the scene of Li Mengzhou killing Zhu Zaitian, which should have been a good game of chess. He regretted that he did not take action at the first time and kept thinking about how to kill Li Mengzhou, but in the end he was taken the lead by the other party.

Mu Nan stepped forward, patted Lu Changge on the shoulder, and smiled and said, "That Park knife is in your hand, and there are some blood stains on it. There are witnesses who confirmed that you have appeared in Baihu Lane and even walked out of Mr. Zhu's house. I admired you for being able to sit here so safely after killing Mr. Zhu. It turns out that you are so scared."

Lu Changge said in fear: "Mr. Mu, this is all a misunderstanding. Someone is slandering me! The person who killed Mr. Zhu was Li Mengzhou, not me, but he was framed by me!"

Mu Nan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Li Mengzhou, are you talking about the sword cultivator from Ligong Sword Court who crossed the border and defeated you on the five floors?"

Lu Changge's face was silent for a moment, and he said gritted his teeth: "It's him! I witnessed him killing Mr. Zhu, and they accidentally noticed it. Fortunately, I reacted quickly enough and was not caught by them. Someone brought this Park Knife here just now. Lord Mu, I was really framed. Please be careful!"

Lu Changge is really panicked.

After all, he is a true disciple of Buluoshanmen. Even if he didn't do the things, once he was taken away by Xuan Zhengsi, it would undoubtedly be a shame for Buluoshanmen. The most important thing is that he will be faceless. If more people know about this, his face will be really lost.

Mu Nan continued to smile and said, "Lu Changge, you said that they didn't catch you. Since they haven't caught you, how can Li Mengzhou know you? How can he frame you specifically? On the contrary, if you were defeated by Li Mengzhou on the five-story building, you may hold a grudge. At this moment, it is reasonable to frame Li Mengzhou."

He didn't care about the difference between "he" and "they" in Lu Changge's mouth. He just patted Lu Changge on the shoulder and said, "Although you are a true disciple who has not fallen, Mr. Zhu is an official in the court after all. Even if he is not qualified to let you pay for your life, you may have to stay in prison for a long time."

Lu Changge widened his eyes and stared at Mu Nan, then said with a sinister expression: "Mr. Mu, what do you mean? Why do I think you are deliberately protecting Li Mengzhou? Could it be that he gave you any benefits? I am a true disciple who is not falling into the mountains, and Li Mengzhou is just leaving the inner courtyard of the palace. In terms of identity and status, I am far better than him!"

The smile on Mu Nan's face gradually disappeared, and he looked at Lu Changge calmly and said, "I am just speaking according to the evidence. As for your suspicions, our Xuan Zhengsi should also go to Li Mengzhou to verify, but this cannot change the result of you going to Xuan Zhengsi's prison with me to have tea."

"You can't do this! I was wronged! It was Li Mengzhou who killed Mr. Zhu! You should catch him!"

Mu Nan ignored Lu Changge's quarrel and just patted his shoulder lightly again. A wisp of breath poured into Lu Changge's aura, making his whole body stiff. His slightly opened mouth could no longer make any sound, but he just looked at Mu Nan with horror.

Mu Nan smiled at him slightly, then picked up the rabbit-faced mask on the table, turned around, took the umbrella handed over by the armored soldiers, and said with a cold expression: "Take it away."

......

The rain sounded drizzling outside the window, and the candles swayed in the house, reflecting the two figures swaying on the wall.

Li Mengzhou buried his head in the noodles, and the sound of drinking noodles soup was endless.

Gu Shiyan, who was sitting opposite, frowned slightly and said, "Lu Changge is indeed the person who is peeping outside Chaosi Lane. Although his identity is far less than the gentlemen left the palace, at least in the capital, he has a higher status than your status. Even if he is confirmed to kill the Minister of the Xuan Zhengsi, he cannot guarantee that he can be eliminated. If he does not fall to the mountain and intends to rescue him, Xuan Zhengsi will have to release him."

She didn't have the idea of ​​continuing to eat noodles at this moment, and said seriously: "What should you do if you want to aggravate Lu Changge's charge? Could it be that I would like to kill a few people and then all of them are attributed to Lu Changge's head?"

Li Mengzhou drank the last bite of noodle soup, wiped his mouth, and said, "Lu Changge has been taken away by Xuan Zhengsi. If you go to kill people now, isn't that just a matter of trouble? Lu Changge does not have the ability to escape Xuan Zhengsi's prison and then runs to kill people. This is not to aggravate his guilt, but to help him clear his crime."

Gu Shiyan frowned and said, "What are you going to do? Just let Lu Changge stay in prison?"

Li Mengzhou shook his head and said, "Xu Hexian is not that easy to deceive, and Lu Changge will also put the charges on me to protect himself. Although that is the fact, if you ignore him, it is actually no difference whether Lu Changge is imprisoned or not, but he will definitely die."

"At the beginning, I also thought about attributeing the death of Yue Shiting and even Dan Tai Jing to Lu Changge, but the possibility of implementation is not high. It can be said that there are many loopholes, which will make things more troublesome."

"I thought that instead of adding a charge to Lu Changge, it would be better to kill him directly and have no evidence of death."

Gu Shiyan said in surprise: "You want to go to the Xuanzhengsi prison to kill Lu Changge?"

It is necessary to blame Lu Changge for Zhu Zaitian's death. This is to clear Li Mengzhou himself of suspicion. If Lu Changge is killed directly, then Zhu Zaitian's death will still be unable to be resolved. However, Lu Changge was imprisoned by Xuan Zhengsi, and it would be difficult to kill him.

Li Mengzhou groped his chin and said, "I revealed to Xu Hexian in person the evidence that Lu Changge killed Zhu Zaitian. Even if Xu Hexian quickly arrested Lu Changge, I don't think he really believed me, but he still did this. I don't know what Xu Hexian was thinking, but he must have doubted me more than Lu Changge."

Gu Shiyan said with a serious expression: "Since you know this, why do you still show up to meet Xu Hexian in person?"

Li Mengzhou said: "I'm just gambling. Even if Xu Hexian suspected that I killed Zhu Zaitian, he would still arrest Lu Changge."

Gu Shiyan said in confusion: "Is Xu Hexian an idiot?"

Li Mengzhou smiled and said, "Didn't you always think he is an idiot, but I don't think he is an idiot. I just think Xu Hexian needs such a murderer to appear. He definitely hopes it will be me, but he also understands that the timing is wrong. Even if he knows that Lu Changge is the chess piece I gave him, he will accept it happily."

Gu Shiyan was covered in mist and said in a angrily voice: "Can you make the words clear!"

Li Mengzhou scratched his head speechlessly and said, "Well, the matter is actually very simple. As you said, Zhang Chong, Dan Tai Jing and even Yue Shiting's successive killings were basically investigated by Xuan Zhengsi. Xu Hexian once used Dan Tai Jing as an excuse to arrest me. Although he failed, whether it was to target the head of Jiang Yuan or have any other purpose, these cases of the murder of the court officials were all troubles that Xu Hexian wanted to get rid of as soon as possible."

"With the successive killing of several officials in the capital, Xuan Zhengshi did not make any results. However, Xu Hexian could not explain to His Majesty the Emperor."

"When the incident of Yue Shiting had not happened, Xu Hexian could continue to delay time, but he had no extra time now. He had to settle Yue Shiting's case. If he could also solve the case of Zhang Chong and Dan Tai Jing, it would be great."

"Although this is just my take for granted, Xu Hexian may take the opportunity to point the finger at me in order to solve the case quickly, but under the premise that he had failed, he could not act rashly before finding evidence that could be pointed out as me, otherwise Tianshuyuan would not sit idly by."

"On the contrary, the evidence that Lu Changge appeared in Baihu Lane is conclusive, and it is not just my words. Besides, I asked you to send Park Dao and the rabbit-faced mask to Lu Changge. I believe they were also seized by the people of Hyun Zhengshi. Compared to pointing the finger at me, the ready-made Lu Changge is obviously more suitable."

Gu Shiyan has no good feelings for Xu Hexian himself, and some court officials are unable to solve the case and are closely watching the case. Some extreme measures are also very likely. Of course, Xu Hexian has reason to do so.

But this place is the capital after all, under the nose of His Majesty the Emperor. If Xu Hexian catches a murderer casually, if any problems arise, he may be that his official position will be lost.

Li Mengzhou finally said: "Because all this is just my thoughts, only he knows what Xu Hexian is thinking, so it is a gamble. But I think Yue Shiting has a different identity, so the court must have an answer as soon as possible. This is the matter of the Jingzhao Mansion of Langya and Xu Hexian's affairs."

"Although the possibility of Xu Hexian pointing his finger at me exists, and even occupies a considerable weight, I bet that he will make mistakes and knowing that he is exploited by me, he still wants to arrest Lu Changge."

Gu Shiyan was silent for a moment and said, "But if you let Lu Changge die in Xuan Zhengsi's prison, wouldn't it be a chance to point the finger at you?"

Li Mengzhou nodded and said, "This is another bet."

He actually didn't have much confidence.
