Chapter 67: Three Surnames of Women

As a veteran Qingluan Guard, Yunluo didn't believe it: "Master Yao, you are a lady from a famous family, and your status is noble. Wouldn't such an action be a disgrace to your family tradition?"

This directly exposed what many people were thinking.

After all, a single man and a single woman went out together in the middle of the night, and avoided the bitter Zhang Yuelu. There are only two possibilities. One possibility is that the two of them have a secret love, and the other possibility is that it is fake.

Yao Pei lowered his eyes: "I don't know how I have disgraced my family tradition? Is it disgracing my family tradition to travel to the capital with others? What family's rule is this?"

Yun Luo said: "This is a customary rule that has been agreed upon for thousands of years."

Yao Pei said: "That is the rule of Confucianism. According to the rules of Confucianism, you, me, Deputy Hall Master Zhang and Special Envoy Han should be in the deep courtyard at this time, not going out of the main door or the second door, how can we show our faces?"

Yao Pei paused: "Or does Lord Yun suspect that I am protecting Brother Qi? Or does Lord Yun suspect that Brother Qi and I have teamed up to kill Monk Yanxiu? So he hinted that I disgraced the family tradition."

This is a counterattack, and Yun Luo's thoughts were also exposed.

Yun Luo was not easy to respond. If he said that Yao Pei was protecting Qi Xuansu, or that the two were in collusion, without solid evidence, it would be a handle for others. It would be fine for ordinary people, but Yao Pei could accuse her of a false accusation, which would be very troublesome.

This is the weight of Yao Pei. She said that she and Qi Xuansu were together, and no one could do anything about it. If it were someone else, they might ask for details.

From beginning to end, Qi Xuansu didn't say anything except pretending, because Yao Pei said that the rest of the matter would be left to her.

Qi Xuansu thought that his performance just now was a bit too much and unnatural, and Zhang Yuelu's reaction was not right. It would be better to leave in anger, or snort coldly and stare at him fiercely, which would be more realistic.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Zhang Yuelu.

It happened that Zhang Yuelu was also looking at him.

The two looked at each other.

Qi Xuansu clearly didn't do anything wrong, but he couldn't help feeling a little weak.

Zhang Yuelu was okay. She only thought about it a little and understood Qi Xuansu's plan. It turned out that this was what he said "no risk", which made her laugh.

Zhang Yuelu was a little curious again. What did Qi Xuansu rely on to persuade Yao Pei to help? It can't be a short three-month friendship. If it were someone else, there would be some possibility, but Yao Pei is practicing the "Taishang Wangqing Sutra" and will never be emotional. As for the private affair between the two, Zhang Yuelu doesn't believe it. Although she is a woman, she is not subjective and emotional, and believes in objective facts. The objective fact is that the influence of the "Taishang Wangqing Sutra" is so great that even if Yao Pei is the reincarnation of the Emperor of the East, he cannot avoid it.

If it is Taiping money, it shouldn't be. Among the four peers present, Li Changge and Yao Pei are in the same class. Taiping money is just a number. She has never worried about Taiping money. She and Qi Xuansu are in the same class, poor and often embarrassed. If it is reasonable to say that Yao Pei bribed Qi Xuansu with Taiping money, it is a dream of a fool to say that Qi Xuansu bribed Yao Pei with Taiping money.

It seems that I have to ask Qi Xuansu.

Li Changge had been observing the expressions of the crowd with great interest, as if he was just a spectator. It was not until this moment that he spoke up: "No one suspects Assistant Yao."

Yun Luo stopped talking.

Yao Pei looked at Li Changge and said: "I have proved Brother Qi's innocence, and this matter should come to an end."

Li Changge said: "Since the Daolu Division has handed this case to me, there is no reason for me to give up halfway. Even if Brother Qi's suspicion is cleared, the case is not over yet. We must give an explanation to the Buddhist sect."

Qi Xuansu finally spoke up: "Brother Li is right. I support continuing the investigation."

Yun Luo glanced at Qi Xuansu and felt that Qi Xuansu was more suspicious, but seeing how he was fearless, it was probably difficult to find out any results.

Li Changge smiled at Qi Xuansu, and then said: "When it comes to investigating cases, I am not as good as Deputy Hall Master Zhang. It is not my forte to rely on various clues to deduce. I prefer to use magic to solve problems. Lord Yun, have you ever traced the earth's energy back?"

"No." Yun Luo said, "Because Wutong Garden is not very convenient. They said... Monk Yanxiu was not the only one who lived in the place where the crime occurred. Others have lived there. If you rashly trace the earth's energy in such a private place, you may see something you shouldn't see..."

Yun Luo didn't have to finish his words, the others had already understood.

It is reasonable for Wutong Garden to have such concerns. The key is that the backer of Wutong Garden is the Li family. Even if it is the Qingluan Guard, it is not easy to force it. This is one of the reasons why Yun Luo wanted Li Changge to host this case.

Li Changge naturally understood and asked, "Who is the owner of Wutong Garden now?"

Yunluo hesitated for a moment and replied, "It's Li Qingnu."

"It's her." Li Changge had heard of Li Qingnu's name, "I thought it was Li Tianyue."

Yunluo explained, "It was indeed Li Dongzhu before, but this Li Da was replaced this year. Li Dongzhu is no longer in charge of things and rarely shows up."

Li Changge nodded and said, "In this case, the gods come down to ask the land, so let's invite the land god."

There is no need for Yunluo to arrange people, as Li Changge's personal followers will go to Wutong Garden.

Qi Xuansu subconsciously used the "Qi-Looking Technique" to take a look, and the personal follower turned out to be a celestial being.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He had never had any direct feelings about the Zhang family's failure to support Zhang Yuelu. After all, no matter how bad Zhang Yuelu was, she was still much better than Qi Xuansu, an orphan who was raised by Qi Niang, and Zhang Yuelu had already survived the most difficult time.

Comparing with Li Changge at this time, Qi Xuansu realized Zhang Yuelu's difficulties. When she first arrived in Yujing, she had no heavenly cultivation, no family followers, no elders to take care of her, and was alone in the Beichen Hall controlled by Taiping Dao. Then she was sent to Jiangnan and survived a narrow escape. Although she was transferred to Tiangang Hall in the future, her status in the Zhang family was not very high. Anyone dared to act big in front of her. Qi Xuansu felt deeply when he went to Yunjin Mountain with Zhang Yuelu. If it weren't for the Earth Master and Cihang Zhenren, she would be the abandoned child of the Zhang family.

On the other hand, Li Changge had everything arranged properly. He was taken care of by the National Master and Qingwei Zhenren. It is said that anyone who dared to act presumptuous in front of Li Changge, the gap was immediately reflected.

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but feel a little unfair for Zhang Yuelu. With such a pattern of the Zhang family, it's no wonder that they can't beat the Li family. They deserve to be suppressed by the Li family.

Of course, Qi Xuansu also suspected that he was not afraid of talking. After all, he was on Zhang Yuelu's side. If he was the head of the Zhang family, and the position of the Heavenly Master was taken away by a disciple of a small sect, then he probably wouldn't be willing. But Qi Xuansu believed in one thing, that is, you should say what you say in your position and don't betray your position. Meaning, since he is Zhang Yuelu's man, he shouldn't empathize with the head of the Zhang family.

Not long after, the Li family's personal attendant led Li Qingnu to arrive.

After all, both of them are members of the Li family, so there is no need to argue. She came as soon as she said it.

This time, Li Qingnu didn't wear a veil or a hat, revealing her true appearance. People can't help but marvel at it. She is worthy of being the most beautiful woman in the capital.

Although Zhang Gaogong is more imposing, with a divine aura that makes people dare not look directly at him, in terms of appearance alone, Li Dajia is better. It is strange to say that Zhang Yuelu is clearly from the south of the Yangtze River, but his style of doing things is more like that of a northerner, while Li Qingnu became famous in the north, but his appearance has a flavor of the water town of the south of the Yangtze River.

Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered that Li Qingnu seemed to be from the same hometown as Zhang Yuelu, because he first met Li Qingnu in Shangqing Mansion, Wuzhou, and at that time, Li Qingnu's banner was to return to his hometown to visit relatives.

Li Qingnu looked around, and his eyes swept over Qi Xuansu without stopping at all, as if he didn't know Qi Xuansu at all, but just stayed on Zhang Yuelu for a while, and finally saluted respectfully to Li Changge, the little ancestor, because she was only of the "Ming" generation.

Li Changge gestured to add a chair for Li Qingnu, right next to Qi Xuansu.

Li Qingnu had to sit with Qi Xuansu in the position of being tried, facing Li Changge. If it wasn't for the public, she would have rolled her eyes at Qi Xuansu. If it wasn't for his mess, she wouldn't be sitting here.

Qi Xuansu suddenly remembered a joke Yao Pei said at the Wanxiang Dao Palace, something like the three families joining together to form a whole. She felt guilty for no reason.

But Qi Xuansu thought about it again, what should he feel guilty about? He was upright and had never done anything fishy or had any bad thoughts. All his dealings were for official business. How could he feel guilty? It seemed that it was all Yao Pei's fault.

After Li Qingnu sat down, Li Changge asked calmly, "I want to trace the earth's qi. Is there any difficulty?"

Li Qingnu shook his head and said, "No difficulty."

"Very good." Li Changge ordered, "Arrange the earth's qi tracing immediately. In addition, check the body of Monk Yanxiu and trace the source of the spell."

These are all common methods. Zhang Yuelu used similar methods when he checked the cause of Feng Bo's death. However, when Master Wan took action, the corpse qi rolled, which disturbed the earth's qi to a certain extent. Qi Xuansu did not have such a realm for the time being, unless he deliberately destroyed the earth's qi.

This kind of thing naturally does not require Li Changge to do it himself, and there are others to do it. Even the scenes of tracing the earth's qi and tracing the source of spells through corpses can be printed in the "Photo Stone".

Everyone sat here and waited. For Taoist disciples, sitting in meditation is a basic skill. It is not difficult to sit silently and motionlessly for a whole day.

During this interval, Li Changge asked Li Qingnu again: "Tell me the details you know in detail."

"Yes." Li Qingnu didn't take the Qingluan Guard's question seriously at all. The Qingluan Guard couldn't do anything to her, but she didn't dare to act rashly in front of Li Changge, and was very respectful. "The courtyard was not actually owned by Monk Yanxiu, but by Weng. Later, Weng invited Monk Yanxiu to a banquet here, so he simply transferred the courtyard to Monk Yanxiu."

Li Changge asked: "Deputy Hall Master Zhang, in Gao Mingyin's case, is there also a person named Weng?"

Zhang Yuelu said: "Deputy Hall Master Li Dai is right. There is indeed a person named Weng. He is the chief historian of the Liaowang Mansion."

Li Changge smiled: "This is interesting."
