I saw everyone checking.

Li Jue naturally didn't dare to go back directly, so he walked directly to his ear room and shouted deliberately.

"Thief, don't leave."

Li Jue shouted, which immediately attracted the attention of many guards, and someone immediately went up to check.

Li Jue looked tired, panting, and wanted to scratch his arm and pretend to be injured.

But his body is too strong and he has no sharp tools in his hands. It is not easy to scratch himself with bare hands.

I can only give up.

Zhao Tuo, Ren Xiao and others had already caught up with him, blocked Li Jue's way and frowned.

Zhao Tuo scolded: "Are you the executioner Li Jue? When I checked you before, why didn't you see any trace?"

Li Jue said: "After killing the King of Yan, I felt the evil spirit was strong and I almost couldn't hold it back, so I found a place to rest. I woke up not long ago."

Zhao Tuo and others looked at each other, this reason was suspicious but very reasonable.

At this time, the inner historian Zhao Teng and others also came.

Zhao Teng obviously heard about the investigation, but Li Jue's disappearance was personally inquired about it.

Inner Shi Zhao Teng said: "Where are you resting?"

Li Jue said: "I am under the tree, and there are traces of me scratching it with my claws. It's so uncomfortable that evil energy enters my body."

He said with gratitude: "Fortunately, I restrained myself and turned evil energy into my own use to increase my strength."

The inner-speaking scholar Zhao Teng said: "Are you a farmer? You can strengthen your body with evil spirits, this is a farmer's method."

Li Jue said: "I am not from a farmer, but my physique is quite special. I am the Lone Star of Tiansha. If I survive the evil spirit, I can turn it into my own use."

The inner-speaking official Zhao Teng asked a few more questions, and at this time the guards had already returned and reported that there were indeed claw marks under the tree that Li Jue said.

He picked up Li Jue's fingers and saw that there were wood chips inside the nail marks, everything was right.

He believed it a little.

He asked again: "Why do you say there are thieves?"

Li Jue said: "I did see a thief passing by, with suspicious signs and planned to question me, but the man ran away when he saw me."

Everyone looked at each other and became nervous.

Zhao Teng frowned and said, "Where did you run away?"

Li Jue pointed in a direction and said, "I went to the east. I just wanted to chase after it, but I didn't expect that I couldn't catch up at all."

At this time, Meng Yi also came over and said, "I have seen your body movements, like a ghost, and you can't even catch up with you?"

Li Jue also said: "Yes, I also relied on my speed to catch up and make contributions. Unexpectedly, I let the thief run away."

After saying this, everyone believed him seven or eight points.

But I didn't believe it all, and I planned to check it too much.

At this time, Meng Yi stopped Zhao Teng and refused to ask more questions.

He explained: "Li Jue is a loyal person, and he cannot have any contact with the assassin. Because he personally killed countless people who were not good for Daqin."

Everyone was stunned, it seemed that this was the truth.

At this time, Meng Yi's clan brother Tingweicheng also came.

He nodded and said, "Yes, every time Chief Li executes a prisoner, he always speaks righteously and keeps his words away from the country and country of Qin."

"He also killed the King of Yan. He had no reason to be detrimental to the king, and he had no chance to take action."

Zhao Teng and others were so smart that they figured out this truth in an instant.

Immediately waved my hand and asked someone to follow the direction guided by Li Jue and searched it.

After being safe, Li Jue did not forget to fold his fists to Meng Yi and the others and thank him, "Thank you, sir, for defending me."

Tingwei Cheng said: "Chief Li is a talent, and everything we say is true. This matter is indeed nothing to do with you."

Meng Yi said: "Li Jue, what do you think of killing King Xi of Yan today?"

Li Jue said: "The King of Yan was happy to stop me from unifying the Qin Dynasty. I deserve to die. It is my honor to be able to kill him."

Meng Yi saw Li Jue's words righteously, and even thought that Li Jue's actions and even calligraphy and poetry praise the Qin Dynasty, he even felt a little ashamed.

Although they were all shining for the Qin Dynasty, they were fighting for power and profits by their families, and their motives were bad.

Li Jue raised his sword to kill the enemy and sang praises to the Qin Dynasty. He was a very pure person.

He can't compare to this point.

Meng Yi said: "Li Jue, I invite you again to join us. You will get the full support of my Meng family. The last three dukes and nine ministers will not be a problem."

Li Jue said: "Thank you, sir, but I prefer to be an executioner. I have no education and don't know how to court. I can only raise a butcher's knife and kill anyone who is not good for the Qin Dynasty."

He smiled and said, "Sir, everyone will do their own duties."

Meng Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and asked Li Jue to go down.

Watching him leave, Meng Yi said, "This person is a talented person, neither arrogant nor impatient. He can remain calm in the face of temptation and be calm in the face of evil."

Tingwei Cheng said: "I heard from Jia Sizhen that this person has experienced several life and deaths and almost starved to death. If such a person had not taken life and death lightly, he would not have been able to have a great enlightenment and had such a state of mind."

Meng Yi nodded and said, "Yes, it's a pity that he will not use it for us."

Tingweicheng said: "But he will not be used by others. We just need to maintain a good relationship with him."

Meng Yi smiled and then said, "Your Majesty's ceremony of inviting immortals will last at least 7749 days. During this period, Xu Fu and Kong Jie will take turns to preside over the ceremony, so we can disperse."

Li Jue returned to his seat and took a look. Xu Fu was dancing on the immortal platform like a great god.

He was really speechless. He had seen Xu Fu at the beginning. He was quite steady before, but he didn't expect that he would look like a lunatic now.

but.

He also understands that human beliefs can easily make people become madmen.

Or Xu Fu also believes in the existence of gods, and he is using this method to prove it. Whether it can be proved in the end depends on Xu Fu's luck.

Not to mention Kong Jie, he saw Xiaoyaoyou with his own eyes, and his artistic conception was completely different. He believed more that there were immortals, and that immortals belonged to them.

However, he didn't know how the immortal invited him to come down.

Ying Zheng built a platform for invitations, but for him, he was also rushing to put it on the shelves.

Now he can only bite the bullet and invite the immortal. If he can't come, he knows the consequences, which may be extremely serious.

However, he had no choice.

He was more willing to believe that at a critical moment, Confucian immortals would still appear like last time. They only needed to appear once to save Confucianism and carry forward Confucianism.

The investigation is still going on, but it has come to an end.

About an hour later, Zhao Teng gave up the order and allowed everyone to leave the palace in an orderly manner.

Fusu found Li Jue and said, "Chief Li, I heard from someone that you have been away for a long time. What's going on?"

Li Jue repeated the reasons he made up and said, "What are you looking for if the eldest son is not with the king?"

Fusu said: "My husbands think that there are strong men in Xianyang, and their strength is still above them. Let me be more careful. However, I think you should be more careful."

Li Jue said: "I am an executioner, why should I be careful?"

Fusu said: "If you kill King Xi of Yan, you may be hated by those who are interested."

Hu Hai was in the distance, supported by Zhao Gao, and heard the conversation between the two and saw them intimate, and was very jealous.

When he heard Fusu's words again, he couldn't help but smile proudly, as if he wanted Li Jue, the executioner who dared to scare him, to be killed.

Li Jue laughed and said, "Young Master is joking. I am just an executioner. Even if I didn't kill Yan Wang Xi today, there will be other executioners taking action."

"There are injustice and debts. Even if they want to take revenge, they will look for the king. At the very least, they will ask you for revenge. What does it have to do with me?"

Fusu was stunned for a moment, as if something was right.

Li Jue also deliberately glanced at Hu Hai and said, "Even if the eldest son is not moved, he may attack the young son, just like the Xiangping Sword Saint."

Knock.

“Wow.”

Hu Hai was so scared that his heart was so scared that he cried.

Zhao Gao was still embarrassed, so he quickly pulled him away, and glared at Li Jue before leaving.

Fusu smiled bitterly and said, "Chief Li, why do you need to scare my brother? He is just a little bit naughty and has no malicious intentions."

Li Jue said earnestly: "Young Master, you must not have the intention to harm others, but you must be careful of others."

"Your younger brother is good in nature, but evil follows you. If you treat him as a brother, he may not treat you as a brother."

Fusu was a little angry and said, "Chief Li, I don't allow you to alienate our brothers' feelings."

Li Jue smiled and waved his hand, "Young Master, I have given you a little more words. I will say goodbye."
