Chapter 69(1/2)
The first one came in was the inspector of Nanchen County - Hong Jia! The next one came in was Jiang Yuan!
This made Jiang Hao immediately understand that this was an old account of the case of stealing ground milk.
However, Jiang Hao is not afraid. The life and death of the jar is unknown now, and it is very likely that he is dead. He will never admit anything.
Moreover, the other party is definitely not as simple as bringing up old accounts, but is trying to pull out more things, and has a great evil intention.
"See Lord Hong." Jiang Hao bowed to see him.
Hong Jia asked coldly: "Jiang Hao, do you know your crime?"
Tsk! Jiang Hao said to himself: Who should I scare? I thought I was a young monk who was in a hurry before?
"Jiang Hao doesn't know, please make clear."
"Okay, let me ask you, is there any hidden information about the case of stealing ground milk that day?" Hong Jia asked.
"Yes." Jiang Hao bowed.
Hong Jia was stunned and felt a little bad in his heart. No, it wouldn't be so easy.
"Then tell me, what's the secret?"
Jiang Hao sat down on his own, touched the dry food and ate it twice, turned around and asked, "Why should I tell you?"
"Bold!" Jiang Yuan jumped out: "You dare to be rude to Shangguan!"
"What are you?" Jiang Hao said coldly: "How dare you be rude to me."
Jiang Hao put down the dry food in his hand, bowed high with his hands, and said loudly: "I, Jiang Hao and even the monks of Linglong Academy, inherited the grace of the Ice Emperor, moved into Ganquan Palace, and gave them generous rewards. If you don't kneel when you meet the Ice Emperor, you will discuss it with me in the academic palace. Although you are involved in great changes and are waiting for review, I have never received the will of the Ice Emperor to deprive me of favor. The honor is still there. Jiang Yuan, who gave you the courage to talk to me so loudly?"
Jiang Yuan was immediately stunned, dumbfounded, speechless.
After showing off his might, Jiang Hao bowed to Hong Jia again and asked with a smile: "Mr. Hong, since you came to ask, you must have received Linglong Pavilion's warrant or Ice Emperor's order. Can you read it first?"
Hong Jia couldn't help but speak, and then paused, saying, "There is no intention, I just asked casually."
Jiang Hao slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I just said casually that the matter was settled, so what was hidden? Have you eaten together? Do you want to have something together?"
Hong Jia was upset that he shouldn't have heard Jiang Yuan's words, so he rushed to ask. This kid is now treacherous and slick, so he didn't look like he was in a hurry at the time.
"You can use it slowly." Hong Jia turned around and left.
Jiang Hao respectfully saw him off. As soon as Hong Jia went out, he rushed forward suddenly, scaring Jiang Yuan to run away.
"Hahaha!" Jiang Hao was very happy!
He was really happy.
I have no soul-bound rope on my body, I am alone in a small house, my doors and windows are not locked, and I have food, which means I have no major problems.
At this time, Hong Jia and Jiang Yuan appeared, and Jiang Hao immediately understood that he was in Linglong Academy.
It is impossible for Jiang Yuan to leave the palace, he does not have the qualifications.
Hong Jia appeared in the academy, perhaps to assist in investigating Ling Yuan’s affairs, or perhaps because he had participated in various assessments and identifications of himself before and was temporarily recruited.
Therefore, Jiang Hao is not fake, and he risked offending Hong Jia and tried it out.
The result is very good. Ice Emperor has no intention and Linglong Pavilion has no conclusion. In this way, the family should be safe.
However, risks still exist and need to be dealt with carefully.
Actually, I don’t know how to deal with it, just to be honest.
Alas, why did such a strange thing happen? Lord Xi actually died.
And a jar...
Jiang Hao suddenly felt distressed, this thin guy, this greedy foodie, this lazy little thing, this sweet-mouthed little brother.
Why are you... gone?
Scream-
The door sounded lightly, and someone came in again, it was Li Tietou.
"Young Master, are you awake?" he said happily.
"I'm fine, Tietou, is anyone making things difficult for you?" Jiang Hao smiled.
"Well, young master, no one makes things difficult for me. They even asked me to live in Ganquan Palace and also asked me to collect Ganquan water, but..." Li Tietou hesitated.
"Just not let me go back, right?"
"They said it was temporary and it would be fine in a while. Young Master, they also said that the jar was... dead."
Jiang Hao shook his head and said with difficulty: "The jar... is gone."
"Where is his body?"
Jiang Hao smiled bitterly and said, "So I said, the jar is gone, not dead. Maybe, he is just gone, and he is still alive."
It's a bit messy, but Li Tietou understood it.
"Young Master, I brought something to you." Li Tietou took out two jade bottles from his arms, and a bag of oil paper, and gently placed them on the table.
The oil paper bag slowly opened, with a few pieces of dessert inside, emitting bursts of fragrance.
Jiang Hao felt quite helpless.
Since staying in Ganquan Palace, how could I have been so sneaky about spiritual water and food? I need to bring Li Tietou in his arms and secretly.
"Tietou, bring the things back, it's best to come over less and guard Ganquan Palace well, I will go back."
Li Tie lowered his head and did not move.
"Go back, be obedient. When I'm not here, hand over all the spiritual water to Linglong Pavilion and collect the receipt."
Li Tietou finally turned around and left, but the things on the table were not taken away. Jiang Hao smiled bitterly and put them in the storage ring.
In the storage ring, in addition to a large amount of elixir, there are also a lot of spiritual water, and there are some elixirs, so you don’t have to worry about cultivation.
Practice well.
...
In a blink of an eye, three days have passed.
During this period, Jiang Hao kept practicing cross-legged, endlessly, and never even came out of the house. Although no one had ever said that he would restrict his freedom, throwing him in such a simple place might be an exile in itself, so he was too lazy to go out.
Li Tietou came a few times, and every time he took a quick look, he left, with a anxious look on his face. Jiang Hao ignored him and meditated on his own.
On the afternoon of that day, another head of Linglong Pavilion, Yuan Shanting, came silently.
"I have met Master Yuan." Jiang Hao bowed and bowed.
Chief Yuan replied briefly and said loudly: "Jiang Hao, under the order of the elder, I will take you to Linglong Pavilion for questions."
"Affect the order."
Jiang Hao left this small house that he had been there for three days for the first time. He followed Yuan Shanting and his party without looking sideways. With just the corner of his eyes, he quickly determined that this was the Suoweitang Villa - an ordinary courtyard inside.
After walking for about a moment, I arrived at the Linglong Pavilion main hall, where several people were already sitting upright.
In the middle is an old man in purple clothes who has seen in the mountains and forests. He has his left hand in Dongli and his right hand in the middle of the mountain.
On the lower east side are four peaks, and on the west side are another head of Linglong Pavilion named Liao Xianzhong, followed by an empty chair, and down is Hong Jia.
Several people were already standing in the hall, most of whom were in the form of officials, with only two exceptions, Jiang Yuan and Li Tietou.
"Deputy Envoy Ling, Elder Yu, and Jiang Hao brought it." Yuan Shanting bowed and replied.
"Okay, sit down." Elder Yu said.
Yuan Shanting bowed to thank the gift and sat down next to Liao Xian.
Jiang Hao bowed: "I have met my elders, and I have met you seniors."
Deputy Envoy Ling said aloud: "Don't give me a gift."
"Sir Xie."
"Jiang Hao, I am the deputy envoy of the Cultivation Secret of the Heavenly Dynasty. I am under the order of the Ice Emperor to investigate the murder of the Xiyu envoy. Now I am asking you, you must tell me the truth."
Jiang Hao nodded: "The Xi Yu Messenger treats me with kindness. I feel sad in my heart. I will definitely know everything and say everything."
"Oh? So, do you know that the Xi Yu envoy died?"
"I'm not sure, but I have speculations. On the day of the incident, the Xiyu Envoy once gave me a ban on the storage ring. After that, the ban disappeared, so I had some guesses in my heart."
Deputy Envoy Ling nodded: "We only found the body of Xi Yu Envoy yesterday."
Jiang Hao suddenly looked up and asked anxiously: "Sir, is there a corpse of my entourage who is following the jar?"
“Not present.”
Jiang Hao lowered his head, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.
Without a corpse, there seems to be a glimmer of hope, but it may also be a more cruel ending - the corpse is gone.
"Tell me, the whole story was over and over," said Deputy Envoy Ling.
"yes."
