338. Son was sold
After leaving the dungeon, Nangong Heng immediately went to find the mute slave, asked him to go there, and chase Ye Ling and the other two back. The news about Wanqi Feng was fake, so there was no need to go to Luoshui City, Yingtian Kingdom.
Then, Nangong Heng found the box Mo Fengliu mentioned on the arch of the imperial study room.
"Uncle, what will be here?" Ye Chen was very excited.
Wanwan lay beside Ye Chen and asked with a smile: "Dad, what is it?"
The box was only the size of an adult's palm. Nangong Heng opened it, and both dolls stared at it with wide eyes.
"Is it a token?" Ye Chen took out a rusty iron sign from the box and looked at it curiously, "It seems that there are words, there are too many rusts and I can't see clearly."
Wanwan stretched out her little hand to touch it, Ye Chen took it away and said with a smile: "Sister, this is a bit dirty, don't touch it."
Nangong Heng took it, and his tentacles were slightly heavy, and it looked like an ordinary iron block. Someone would not necessarily pick it up if he threw it on the roadside. Mo Fengliu was so treasured and claimed that it was something very important to Shangguan Ruo, so it would definitely be useful, but it was useless to them at the moment, unless he met Shangguan Ruo in the future.
Nangong Heng used special potion to remove the rust, and the patterns on the token became clear. They thought it was all textual things, all of which were totems, which were very complicated and could not be understood.
"Uncle, what should I do if I do this?" Ye Chen asked.
Nangong Heng threw it to Ye Chen casually: "Be paperweight for the baby."
"Isn't it a baby?" Ye Chen said that his uncle was too casual.
"Just don't lose it." Nangong Heng smiled and rubbed Ye Chen's little head.
"This pattern is very special and looks very beautiful, I like it." Ye Chen happily accepted it.
"Where am I?" Wanwan asked with her big eyes blinking.
Ye Chen hugged Wanwan and stood up, and said with a bright smile: "Sister, mine is yours. You are too young, my brother will teach you how to write next year!"
After the mute slave left, Nangong Heng gave the task of protecting the two children to Bu Er to choose Feng Bu Yi. As for himself, although he did not intend to be the emperor all the time, since he had done it, he had to do his best to do what he should do.
So, when Nangong Heng began to rectify the court of Mo Yun Kingdom, it was like a magnitude ten-magnitude earthquake.
Mo Yan was not in his position but refused to let go. Mo Fengliu was in his position but did not plan his own affairs. She only thought about love and love all day long. Under the rule of this father and son, Mo Yun had a great domestic problem. As an old power in this land, Mo Yun Kingdom has been in a state of affairs until now, giving Yingtian Kingdom a chance to rise. Twenty years ago, the White Feather Kingdom was defeated, but it has not been swallowed up until now.
Most of the original officials were in high positions and did not do practical things, and they should withdraw and investigate. Some were promoted by Mo Yan and some were deeply intimate with Mo Fengliu. All of them were meaningless in Nangong Heng.
In Nangong Heng went to the dungeon to meet Mo Fengliu for the last time. Three days later, he received a report that Mo Fengliu had died when she hit the wall.
"Buried him into the imperial tomb and beside Mo Yan. The father and son passed away, and be a companion on the road to the underworld." Nangong Heng said with a faint expression.
He did not look at Mo Fengliu for the last time. As for the Mo family's imperial tomb, Nangong Heng would not enter, until Mo Fengliu.
Ye Chen summed up with an old aura: "Mo Fengliu's name is that once you make mistakes, you have been resentful for a hundred years."
Wanwan clapped her little hands: "Brother said it so well! What does it mean?"
Feng Buyi was having fun next to him, thinking that his baby was really cute!
"Xiao Fengfeng, have you thought of a solution to your internal strength problem?" Nangong Heng asked.
Feng Buyi shook his head: "Not yet."
"The Gu you made is very powerful. Now you will be injured by internal energy. It is not a problem with Gu. It is because you are too weak and have no foundation. If you force yourself to be a master, your tendons and veins will not be able to bear it." Nangong Heng said.
"What you said is nonsense, don't I know?" Feng Buyi snorted lightly.
"So..." Nangong Heng smashed a book of internal skills on Feng Buyi's head, "This is specially chosen for you, and you will start practicing from scratch. Some things have already taken a shortcut, and now you have to make up for the basics."
Feng Buyi frowned and looked at the secret book: "I didn't like practicing martial arts since I was a child, so I ran away from home to practice medicine."
"You can't do it now, but in that case, forget about your internal strength and don't use it. Otherwise, if we are not around, you will use it indiscriminately and kill yourself." Nangong Heng said with a serious expression.
Feng Buyi frowned: "I'll try it first." He used the new poison to snatch Feng Yuan's internal strength, but his original intention was not to become a burden to his relatives and friends. Now he has taken a big step forward and just giving up like this is not his personality.
Mo Fengliu was quietly buried in the Mo family imperial tomb on a gloomy day. Except for the luxurious coffin, which was ready-made in the palace, there was nothing that could be called a funeral. Nangong Heng did not go, nor did he let Mo Fengliu's women and daughters go.
After Mo Fengliu was buried, Nangong Heng announced his death to the public, and the public cause of death was sudden death from heart disease.
In just a short time, the two Supreme Emperors died in Mo Yun Kingdom. There are many people behind their backs that the deaths of Mo Yan and Mo Fengliu are related to the new emperor he has recovered.
But after all, killing each other is a "royal feature". After a while, some things will be forgotten and will not be mentioned again.
The mute slave was known for his light skills. He set out two days later than Ye Ling and his party, traveling day and night, and rushed all the way. In early October, he caught up with them in the central part of Baiyu Country.
"Brother, why are you here?" Wanqi Wu was surprised to see the mute slave chasing him.
Song Qingyu looked serious: "Uncle Ya, is there something wrong with Jinyun City? Aheng and the children are fine?"
The mute slave shook his head at Song Qingyu, then gestured to Ye Ling.
Wanqi Wu couldn't understand at all. Seeing Ye Ling's face darkened, he urged him to ask, "What did the mute brother say?"
Ye Ling sighed and grabbed Wanqi Wu's arm: "Master, Aheng asked Mo Fengliu to explain, and he said that the matter about Senior Brother Feng was lying to us."
Wanqi Wu's expression froze! Ye Ling thought he would be furious and said he would go back and kill Mo Fengliu. Unexpectedly, he was very quiet this time, but his eyes suddenly turned red, making people feel sad. Isn't it just to live to be peaceful and safe when he lives to his grandchildren? But now his only son is missing and his life and death are uncertain.
The deeper the contact with Nangong Heng and Ye Ling, the more Wanqi Wu felt the warmth of home, the more crazy he wanted to find Wanqi Feng. Unfortunately, it was so painful to have the feeling of hope and shattering.
"Master." Ye Ling gently hugged Wanqi Wu, patted his back, let him go, and said seriously, "I believe that Senior Brother Feng must be alive, so let's continue to look for him. Now Aheng is the emperor, Leng Song and Mengmeng are all leading troops to search. In a few days, after this land is unified, it will be more convenient for us to find people."
Wanqi Wu sighed deeply, turned to look in the direction of Yingtian Kingdom, clenched his fists and loosened them, and then turned around and asked the mute Nu: "Is Wanqi Sheng Mo Fengliu's master? Is this incident in Luoshui City of Yingtian Kingdom true?"
The mute slave nodded, indicating that this was true.
"Anyway, I don't know where Feng'er is now. I've been here, so I'll go to Luoshui City for a trip! Wan Qisheng finally planned to harm me. Maybe he really caught Feng'er, but Mo Fengliu didn't know. Even if Feng'er couldn't be found on this trip, Wan Qisheng would be solved to avoid leaving any troubles!" Wan Qisheng said coldly.
Song Qingyu looked at Ye Ling: "It's better to do this. Senior Wanqi will go with me. The family is young. Xiao Ye, you and Uncle Ya will go back to Jinyun City first."
Ye Ling shook her head: "We've all got here, let's go together. I don't want any more accidents to lose my own people."
The mute slave raised his hand and said that he would go together.
"There are many people and the power is strong, and the battle is quick and the decision is done quickly. Let's go home together." Ye Ling made the decision, and the four of them continued to set off.
When he stopped to rest, Yanu told Ye Ling how Nangong Heng pried open Mo Fengliu's mouth after they left.
When Wanqi Jun learned the story of Mo Fengliu and Bai Xuewei, he said: "It's all shameless people!"
Ye Ling said that not to mention the fate of fate, Bai Xuewei, a married princess from a defeated country, has the backbone, so she shows her ambition by dying. Her later actions were all about venting anger and revenge and hurting innocent people, but she was not innocent from the beginning. As for Mo Fengliu, she was really stupid and bad, and there was nothing to say. Fortunately, Nangong Heng did not grow up under Mo Fengliu's knees, otherwise she would not know what would be like.
Luoshui City is a trading city adjacent to the White Feather Kingdom. A Luoshui River passes through the city, hence the name.
When the four of them entered the city, it was early one morning. They all disguised themselves and found an inn to settle down. Then Wanqi Shi painted a portrait of Wanqi Sheng to Ye Ling.
Song Qingyu bought food back. After a short rest, he and Ye Ling went out to find someone and asked the two old men to wait in the inn. Wanqi Wu wanted to go, but Ye Ling was afraid that he would be impulsive and advised him to go to bed.
Song Qingyu and Ye Ling, who was dressed as a man, walked around the streets of Luoshuicheng, found the most lively restaurant in, sat in the lobby, and listened to the people around him.
Some people are talking about Yingyan Xiu. However, the news spread that although Yingyan Xiu was captured by the royal family of Mo Yun Kingdom, he had already escaped. Therefore, Yingtian Kingdom did not feel much nervous. It can be heard that the people still recognize Yingyan Xiu's ability.
Some people are also talking about the royal family of Mo Yun Kingdom, half-true and half-false rumors.
After drinking a pot of wine, Song Qingyu and Ye Ling left the restaurant and walked in two directions respectively.
At sunset, when he returned to the inn, Song Qingyu said that he found a villa in the western suburbs of Luoshui City, which was suspected to be Wanqisheng's residence. Some people living nearby had seen the portrait and said that they looked a bit like the owner of the villa. However, they didn't know what was inside and did not alert the snake.
At midnight, four people approached the villa, which was covered with black squids.
I went in quietly and soon found that there were no lights everywhere in the other yard. This was not normal. If someone lived, even if the lights in the room went out and fell asleep, at least there should be a lantern under the eaves, and they did not find a single person in the other yard.
"It's not that I ran away, right?" Wanqi Jun frowned.
Ye Ling shook her head: "Go in and take a look."
When I opened the door of the main yard, a foul stinking came to my face, which was the smell of the decay of the corpse.
After Song Qingyu opened the window, he lit the light and the stench came from the inner room bed.
"Little girl, please go out and wait. I'll go and see if it's Wanqisheng!" Wanqian pushed Ye Ling and subconsciously protected her like a daughter, not wanting her to look at something that stained her eyes.
Ye Ling covered her nose and went out, and she really couldn't stand it, so the mute slave came out too.
Song Qingyu held his breath, followed Wanqi Wu, went to the edge of the bed, and used the hilt of the sword to open the bed curtain. The next moment, he covered his chest and turned around to retching.
Wanqi Wu pinched his nose, suppressed his discomfort, got closer, quickly turned around and pulled Song Qingyu away.
Ye Ling, who was standing in the yard, saw them coming out, asked, "Is it Wanqisheng?"
Wanqi Wu took a deep breath, nodded and said, "It's him! There is no pinky finger in his right hand!"
"Can you tell when he died and how he died?" Ye Ling asked.
Wanqi Wu shook his head: "I'm not a coroner, I don't understand this."
Song Qingyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The bones exposed outside were black and lying flat on the bed, and there was no blood around them. The cause of death should be highly toxic."
"Does the master know that he has any enemies?" Ye Ling asked.
"We have not seen each other for at least forty years. He is a pervert who can't control himself and especially likes young women. He was a ill-gotten man to my wife, so he broke up. I don't know if he has an enemy later," said Wanqi Jun.
"Everyone is dead, it seems we will have a waste of time." Song Qingyu sighed slightly.
"Wait until dawn, come and have a look." Ye Ling finished speaking and the four of them left.
The next morning, when he came to the other courtyard, Song Qingyu went in first, wrapped Wan Qisheng's body in a mattress, and threw it elsewhere. After a while, Ye Ling went in, and the air was still filled with an undissipated stench.
Wanqi Jun found Wanqisheng's handwriting in the room, further proving that he had lived here.
"What is this?" Wanqi Feng pulled out a letter from under the vase on the table, looking shocked, "This..."
The mute slave leaned over and took a look, widened his eyes, and waved to Ye Ling to pass.
"Little Girl Ye, what's going on?" Wanqi Jun handed the letter to Ye Ling, looking very strange.
Ye Ling took it and frowned immediately because there were four words written on the envelope, "Ye Ling's personal opening".
Song Qingyu stood behind Ye Ling, glanced at her, and her face slightly darkened: "It was Chu Mingze's handwriting. It seemed that the person who poisoned Wan Qisheng was him. After he left the Ghost Island, he actually came to Yingtian Kingdom."
Ye Ling opened the envelope and there was only a thin piece of letter paper inside, just a few words.
"Ye Ling, I know you may not be here, but Wanqi Wang is looking for his son, and he will probably think of this old pervert.
It was an accident that he met Wanqisheng. He accidentally saw Wanyan You becoming lustful and caught him. When I came to save someone, I learned about his identity and his relationship with Wanqi Wu before killing him.
I lied that I was Wanqian's apprentice, and Wanqi was promoted to survive and explained something.
Wan Qi Feng's disappearance is indeed related to him, but it was not because he killed him, but because he sold it.
For the rest, you can go to Wanhualou in Luoshui City to inquire.
