Chapter 467 A country in a country
Chuci, Leng Ruxue, and the unconscious “Shiyue” left the capital.
Sun Chenghai and his wife stood in the attic, watching the three of Chuci leave.
“My husband, what should I do now? Do you want to tell His Royal Highness?”
“Are you confused?! The daughter is still in their hands!”
“Will that cause trouble for His Royal Highness?”
“Don’t worry, even if the ninth-tier powerhouse comes to Xiancheng, you have to lie on your stomach!”
···
When Chu Ci and Leng Ruxue returned to Commoner Lane, the sky was getting darker.
Shi Liang’s house, in the small courtyard.
Li Chongming and Shi Liang each sat on a stone bench, chatting with each other.
As for’Pei Lan Cang Yue’, she had already fallen asleep early.
Squeak-
The gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and Chu Ci and Leng Ruxue stepped in.
“Master Chu!”
Li Chongming and Shi Liang hurriedly stood up.
When Shi Liang saw Leng Ruxue holding a little girl in her arms, the expression on her face suddenly became excited.
“Master Chu, did you bring my sister back?!”
Chu Ci nodded, and motioned to Leng Ruxue to carry’Shiyue’ back into the room.
“Sit down and talk.”
Chu Ci let Shi Liang sit down.
“Shi Liang, your sister and Miss Dutongfu have changed their bodies, and now the soul in Miss Dutongfu is your sister Shi Yue.”
Shi Guangming nodded, and said excitedly, “Well, I know!”
“I have something to tell you.”
Chu Ci looked at Shi Liang, and said in a deep voice, “Your sister Shi Yue’s body is already suffering from a serious illness, but now it is almost exhausted, and it is estimated that it will not last a month!”
“what?!”
Shi Liang stood up suddenly, his face instantly turning pale.
“Then my sister wants…”
“Master Chu!” Shi Liang looked at Chu Ci, pleading in his eyes, “Please save my sister!”
“Be sure to change my sister back!”
Chu Ci frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, “I have no idea about this, but I will try my best to rescue your sister.”
“Before that, you must take good care of your sister’s body and let her hold on!”
Shi Liang raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes, then nodded heavily and said, “Well, I know!”
Chu Ci stood up and patted Shi Liang on the shoulder, and said, “Go in and see your sister.”
“Ok.”
Shi Liang walked into the room preoccupiedly.
Standing in the small courtyard, Chu Ci said to Li Chongming aloud, “Guardian Li, their safety is up to you.”
Li Chongming said, “Don’t worry, Master Chu!”
“Li must protect them well!”
Chu Ci nodded slightly, left Commoner Lane with Leng Ruxue, and returned to Wangyue Tower.
Back at Wangyue Tower, Chuci saw the drunk Taoist sitting at a desk, drinking himself.
“Dao Master, are you back?”
The drunk Taoist looked at Chu Ci, waved his hand and said, “I’m back.”
“I walked for a day, but I am exhausted and poor!”
Chu Ci sat down next to the drunk Taoist and asked about the alcohol on his body and said, “The Taoist has a lot of good bars with Master Di?”
“Hey-hey!”
The drunk Taoist smiled when he heard the words, stroked his beard and said, “Master Di didn’t say anything!”
“Pan Dao, Lord Qian Di, has all the wine.”
After finishing speaking, the drunk Taoist glanced at Chu Ci, “It’s much more generous than you stinky kid!”
Chu Ci chuckled and asked, “Where is Master Di?”
The drunk Taoist pointed his finger upstairs and said, “I will organize the files in the room.”
“It’s inconvenient to bother him, so I went down to drink.”
Chu Ci pondered for a moment, then looked at the drunk Taoist and asked, “Dao Master, can you understand this soul-changing secret technique?”
The drunk Taoist stroked his beard and muttered, “I heard that I have heard of it.”
“But this kind of secret technique that can make people live for another life is so evil, it’s best not to use it!”
Chu Ci nodded slightly, and said, “I heard Master Di said that one use of the soul-changing secret technique will consume the essence of the condensation of a hundred people’s lives!”
“Goodbye!”
The drunk Taoist couldn’t help but his expression changed.
Chu Ci asked in a deep voice, “Does the Daoist know how to crack this secret technique?”
The drunk Taoist shook his head and said, “How do you understand this poor Tao?”
After pondering for a moment, the drunk Taoist said tentatively, “How about you ask your Majesty?”
“Maybe your Majesty has any way.”
Chu Ci nodded.
“Dao Master, you drink first, I’ll go see Master Di.”
Chu Ci stood up and came upstairs.
Tuk! Tuk! Tuk!
Chu Ci knocked on Di Gongming’s door.
“Come in!”
In the room, Di Gongming’s voice came out.
Squeak-
Chuci opened the door and walked in.
Di Gongming was burying his head at the desk at the moment, sorting out a thick stack of files.
“Master Chu, you are here, sit down!”
Di Gongming greeted Chuci to sit down.
“Would you like some tea?”
Di Gongming poured a cup of hot tea for Chuci.
“Thanks a lot.”
Chuci took the tea cup, looked at Di Gongming and asked, “How did Master Di get today?”
“Ugh!”
Di Gongming sighed softly and said, “It’s shocking, it’s terrifying to think carefully!”
Looking at the Songs of Chu, Di Gongming said with a heavy tone, “Master Chu, now this city is dedicated, I am afraid it is really the second country dedicated to Zhu!”
Chu Ci frowned upon hearing this, and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Di Gongming pointed to the file on the table of the case and said, “This is the information I got through the investigation of the dark hall, Master Chu might as well take a look.”
Chu Ci took the dossier and flipped it through.
After the tea time, Chu Ci put down the dossier with a solemn expression.
Although it had been expected that many people would be replaced in Xiancheng, Chu Ci did not expect that there would be so many people!
There are more than a hundred officials, large and small, in Xiancheng, plus the influential wealthy gentry, there are as many as hundreds!
Among these people’s residences, 90% of the number of people who hired the survivors of the Xianzhu country is full!
Judging from the information obtained from the investigation, these people have beenhave abnormally in the past five years!
This shows that they are most likely to have been replaced!
“There are so many people?”
A look of surprise appeared in Chu Ci’s eyes.
Di Gongming nodded solemnly, “In addition, there are other local officials in the Southern Territory who have bid for the employment rights of the remnants of Xianzhu State!”
Chu Ci raised his eyebrows, “Master Di meant that not only Xiancheng, but other local officials were replaced?”
Di Gongming nodded and said, “It’s very possible!”
A strange color appeared in Chu Ci’s eyes, and he said in a deep voice, “Plus the many soldiers and horses hidden in Xiancheng, today’s King Xian’s intention is clearly revealed!”
Di Gongming looked at Chu Ci and asked aloud, “Master Chu, what should I do next?”
“Xian Wang must be confident in doing this!”
“It’s just that you and I want to stop King Xian, I’m afraid I won’t be able to do it.”
Chu Ci sighed softly and said, “I will report this matter to your Majesty first, and see how your Majesty decides!”
Di Gongming nodded, stroked his beard and said, “Also, then I will trouble Master Chu.”
