Chapter 402 Undercurrent
“Brother Yue, you go to bed first, I’ll go out and do some errands.”
Later at night, after Fu Qingzhou and Yue Heng settled down at a nearby inn, they asked Yue With a word of Heng, he left the inn uncontrollably.
He still has to do what he promised Gu Jinchen.
It was very quiet late at night in the capital. Except for the occasional sound of the clock in the distance and the footsteps of officers and soldiers on regular night patrols on the streets, there was almost no movement.
Fu Qingzhou yawned and strolled on the street, his eyes scanning the shop signs, looking for the three interlocking patterns of the Nebula Chamber of Commerce.
While walking, his pace suddenly slowed down.
"Old man, do you feel it?"
He narrowed his eyes and asked in his mind: "There are many people ambush in front of you."
"You can do it Don't you think I can?" Yan Gui laughed dryly: "But they don't seem to be here for you."
"Well..."
Fu Qingzhou was alert, but did not stop and slowly approached.
The feeling these people gave him was very familiar.
He is from Xiaoyu Pavilion.
How come the people from Xiaoyu Pavilion ambushed here? Could it be that Wu Yan is also nearby?
It is indeed possible that he entered the capital to avoid trouble, but why did he come here?
Because he had to go to court today, Fu Qingzhou naturally didn't bring any weapons, but he didn't panic. Even if these guys were really out of their minds and wanted to deal with him because of Zhu Mei's affairs, he wouldn't be afraid.
This is the capital city. If you can’t defeat yourself, why can’t you escape? He was not afraid that these killers would dare to chase him on the street.
So, he stretched himself and stepped into the ambush of these killers.
In an instant, countless cold gazes were cast over him, countless qi machines locked on him, and it seemed that countless people might come out of the shadow at any time.
At this time, Fu Qingzhou noticed a shop in the center of the ambush circle.
It was a seemingly ordinary blacksmith shop. There was a three-ring pattern in the corner of the sign... It was the Nebula Chamber of Commerce Industry.
"Are these Xiaoyu Pavilion killers ambushing around the Nebula Chamber of Commerce?"
He came to the conclusion in an instant: "Do they think Wu Yan will come to the Nebula Chamber of Commerce?"< br>
Why is this? Could it be that Wu Yan would seek refuge in the Nebula Chamber of Commerce and seek asylum?
Or...
"It seems that the killer Wu Yan didn't rebel completely for women."
Smoker said what Fu Qingzhou was thinking: "Hey, he won't Did you get some extremely important magic weapon or secret from Xiaoyu Pavilion?"
"It's really possible."
Fu Qingzhou smiled: "Whatever, you have half a cent with me. Relationship? ”
While he was talking, he arrived at the door of the blacksmith shop and knocked on the door.
The moment the door panel knocked, the killers lurking around had faint murderous intentions, and even the temperature seemed to have dropped several degrees.
Their appearance also made Fu Qingzhou's face turn cold.
He stopped knocking on the door, turned around slowly, and scanned the shadows of the surrounding dark streets one by one.
None of the killers showed up, and it was impossible to tell where they were with the naked eye.
But Fu Qingzhou's eyes clicked on their hiding places one after another.
“Don’t go too far.”
He said coldly: “I will handle my affairs and you handle yours. If you let me use your murderous intent again, I will ensure that you An hour later, they were all lying in the hell of Mingjian Pavilion."
While speaking, Fu Qingzhou swayed slightly, revealing... the Mingjian Zhishi Pai around his waist.
In an instant, the murderous aura of the surrounding killers all froze.
Then, like cautious octopus tentacles, they slowly and slowly retracted it.
Fu Qingzhou sneered.
Li Jingzhe only said that he was not allowed to use this brand to scare the killer, but in this case, it must have nothing to do with it.
The killers were finally frightened back, and the door of the blacksmith shop slowly opened.
“Who?”
The person who opened the door was an unshaven, thick-set man with sleepy eyes and a irritable look on his face.
Fu Qingzhou smiled, turned back the Ming Jian Zhi Shi tablet on his waist, and turned out another tablet.
“This is my Nebula Token.”
He showed the Nebula Token and said softly: “There is a letter, I need you to help me deliver it... It needs to be urgent, it’s very urgent. "
You must be in a hurry, otherwise if you slow down a few times, the Lan family may have to deal with Gu Jinchen, and by the way, Yue Heng will also suffer." Gu Jinchen was really killed by the Lan family, but Fu Qingzhou didn't feel bad.
But brother-in-law is already unlucky enough... Beating up the younger ones and attracting the older ones is really boring. It's better to stop playing and settle the matter quickly.
"Oh... My dear guest, Bai Fang."
The man's face was still a little dissatisfied: "What kind of letter are you sending? It's so late at night, can't you wait until tomorrow?"
< br>"I told you it's urgent." Fu Qingzhou tilted his head: "If you want more money, just add more money. In short, I want you to send the letter to me as quickly as possible."
...
Somewhere, in a deep courtyard.
The night is like ink, and the deep house is looming under the moonlight.
In the courtyard, most of the houses have been plunged into darkness, with only a few windows still revealing a faint light. Only the outline of the courtyard wall and the towering eaves can be vaguely discerned, as well as the grass beside the bluestone path. Occasionally, the chirping of insects can be heard, adding to the silence of the night.
In the silent courtyard, a little maid walked quickly.
She was wearing thin clothes, her eyes were sleepy, and her face looked a little anxious.
Not long after, the little maid came to a study room, with soft light coming from the crack in the door, as if she was awake alone in the silent night.
She stretched out her hand and knocked on the door gently.
“Come in.”
A graceful and calm voice came from the room.
The little maid answered yes and pushed the door open.
In the study room, warm yellow light shines on the exquisite furnishings, and the air is filled with the faint scent of ink and wood.
Behind the small table, there is a woman sitting. She is about forty years old, with a gentle face, and a sense of calmness and calmness between her brows... Her clothes are simple but luxurious, and her gestures are There is a self-evident majesty.
There were piles of paper around her, and she also held a roll of paper in her hand, looking at it carefully by the candlelight.
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing the little maid enter the room, she put down the book in her hand, raised her head, and asked lightly.
"Madam."
The little maid quickly approached and handed a letter with both hands: "There is an urgent letter. It was sent urgently through the Nebula Chamber of Commerce... The slave dare not delay.”
“Yes.”
The woman responded, reached out and pressed the letter, opened it calmly, and scanned the letter line by line. His expression gradually became serious.
After a while, she slowly put down the letter.
"Hongjun...is dead." She shook her head and said softly.
Hearing this, the little maid was shocked!
"Master Hongjun, dead, dead?!" She lost her voice.
"Well...it's a pity about that Qiyuan Pill." The woman sighed: "I thought he could survive this disaster, but now it seems that I still looked at him favorably...He Even if you can’t suppress your own bookboy, you are still a loser who cannot be supported.”
After saying that, she raised her hand and threw the letter out, falling into the hands of the little maid.
The little maid took the letter and read it quickly, her expression became very complicated.
"Madam..."
She asked carefully: "Then, what are you going to do?"
"This bookboy named Gu is quite interesting." The woman said leisurely: "He can actually think of reconciling the relationship between my Lan family and the Yuan family? He can also think of asking this Fu Qingzhou to make peace..."
The little maid frowned: "But Madam, there are still doubts about Master Hongjun's death. With our Qiyuan Pill and you behind his back, he cannot fall to the point of committing suicide out of fear of crime. There must be something in this." The matter between Gu Jinchen and Fu Qingzhou!”
“So what?”
The woman smiled slightly: “What our Lan family needs is talented people, not just protecting the losers in the family. , Otherwise, how can the family continue to this day?"
"Then?" The little maid was startled: "Is it possible that Madam, you don't want to worry about this anymore?"
"Haha..."
The woman was still smiling, but a glint flashed in her eyes: "Although they were smart, they didn't see a thing."
"This case involves the children of my Lan family, among whom Shao Zhong has already passed the exam. There are also doubts about the death of Zhang Jian Academy and Hong Jun. No matter how eager the Four Law Division is to settle the case, they will not settle the case without saying hello to us."
"This... is. Someone wants to take this opportunity to take action against our family."
She looked solemn and said slowly: "The book boy named Gu doesn't want to reconcile our relationship with the Yuan family and win one for himself. A future? Then give him this opportunity and turn all those people’s attention to him.”
