C437 Shangguan's past



C437 Shangguan's past

2Are you sure? "    

    

Even if he knew that Young Master Xi must have gotten the exact information, he would still say it.    

    

However, Xiao Yun still couldn't help but ask.    

    

It was really... unbelievable.    

    

Young Master Xi sighed and said: When I saw the result, I also did not dare to believe it. I asked people to confirm it again and again, but it was still the same. 】    

    

[What about the motive?] What's the reason? ] Xiao Yun frowned. I'm from Qin Country, and I don't know anyone from Suzaku. Furthermore, my name has never crossed paths with them. Why did they send someone to kill me? 】    

    

[That's right, we really haven't found out the reason. "    

    

Then what did you find out?    

    

This is the identity. We can only confirm that they are from Suzaku. ]    

    

Xiao Yun sighed.    

    

This was a very important piece of news, but it was also useless.    

    

After confirming the identities of those assassins, it would be meaningless if they could not confirm the identity of the person behind them.    

    

Because this involved the problem of buying a murderer.    

    

The murderer might have been found in Suzaku, or it could have been from the North Wei. Hired from Sun Moon Country, anywhere in the world. There was no reason to hire him, and it was even just at the right time. He just happened to be able to find the person there.    

    

There were even several layers of subcontractions.    

    

Someone gave the order, the subordinate went to find the person, the staff went to find the other snake heads, the snake heads went to pick from a certain circle...    

    

After searching layer by layer, it finally landed on the head of Suzaku.    

    

What kind of definite connection do you think there is?    

    

I'm afraid not.    

    

Then it would be more difficult to find another route from Suzaku.    

    

If it wasn't for the difficulty, Young Master Xi would have already known the identity of the person behind the scenes, and wouldn't have told him such a useless piece of information.    

    

Young Master Xi's expression was a little awkward as he said, Actually, it's a little useful. After all, it's better than not knowing anything. Am I right? "    

    

Xiao Yun smiled and said, That's true.    

    

Sigh, what a great sacrifice. " Young Master Xi said, I just have to apologize to Young Master Xiao and use this as an excuse to invite you here. There was indeed some suspicion of cheating, but it was because this matter was too important. So, I have to make this decision! ]    

    

Xiao Yun waved his hand and said, Even if you didn't find anything, after I got into trouble, even if you spared no effort to investigate, I will return this favor to you! So, regardless of whether this information is useful or not, you can tell me anything.    

    

Young Master Xi was stunned for a moment, and then he said, Although Young Master Xiao's rules sometimes feel strange, there are still some benefits if you follow them. "    

    

He sighed and continued, Prime Minister Qiu, you can be considered half of our people. You should know this, Young Master Xiao...    

    

Why would I know?    

    

[Hmm?] ] Young Master Xi was stunned, then he said in surprise, Could it be that Young Master Xiao did not read the register carefully?    

    

What do you mean he didn't look at it carefully? I used that register to threaten you. Since it was effective, why should I look at its contents? ]    

    

This...    

    

Young Master Xi was speechless.    

    

It was not because Xiao Yun's words made sense, but because Xiao Yun's strange personality really made people speechless.    

    

He took a long time to calm down before saying helplessly, Actually, most of our funds were from the Cabinet. Prime Minister Qiu usually needs to eat, eat, and live, so he naturally needs to spend a lot. We helped him a little, and he also helped us a little. ]    

    

Xiao Yun nodded.    

    

He wasn't surprised by this.    

    

What kind of place was the Drunken Immortal Restaurant?    

    

Those who went there had a high status.    

    

Therefore, it was impossible for someone to stay by your side all day just because you had a high status.    

    

That was a huge amount of money that needed to be spent!    

    

No matter how one looked at Prime Minister Qiu's salary, it was not enough.    

    

The biggest money-cutting cave in Qin Country, how could it be an undeserved reputation?    

    

Therefore, Xiao Yun knew from the beginning that Prime Minister Qiu's hands and feet were not clean. It was just where to get money from. This was the key, but he did not care.    

    

After all, Xiao Yun also needed to know his limits. Regarding the matters of the big shots in the Imperial Court, there had to be a limit to what could be done and what could not be done.    

    

Young Master Xi saw that Xiao Yun was not surprised. He was stunned for a moment, then he sighed. Indeed, Young Master Xiao did not care about the matters of the Imperial Court on the surface, but his heart was as clear as a mirror. "    

    

Hahaha, you're making fun of yourself. Regarding the matters of the Imperial Court... What right do I have to interfere in the matters of the royal court? I am just a commoner. There was no place for me in the court. It was all because of His Majesty and the others that I was able to make a trip up there. How can I interfere in such matters? Young Master Xi really thinks too highly of me. ]    

    

Young Master Xi didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile bitterly.    

    

This was the truth.    

    

But Xiao Yun was still modest.    

    

He had even reached the level of hypocrisy.    

    

He could not interfere in the matters of the royal court?    

    

If he couldn't, he wouldn't have to spend so much effort to invite him over.    

    

He coughed twice.    

    

Young Master Xi said, The assassination of Prime Minister Qiu was very strange and unbelievable. Why is it Prime Minister Qiu? Why are they here? Why are they here? Was it a personal grudge? Or was it public indignation? There were many possibilities. One of them was that this matter was related to me. If they were originally here for us, Prime Minister Qiu would be the first to bear the brunt of it. Then, this matter would stop because of Prime Minister Qiu, or it would continue. This... No one can say for sure. In any case, everyone here is in danger. Including myself. ]    

    

Xiao Yun rubbed his nose and smiled. Is that why you chose such a place? One side is wide and open. As long as you guard one side, you can block it. In addition, I have the guards of various forces by my side. That's why I can guarantee my safety. ]    

    

Of course I have such considerations. "    

    

The two of them analyzed, judged, and made various guesses.    

    

They talked for a long time, but no one said anything.    

    

Even Prime Minister Qiu was confused about this matter.    

    

Otherwise, he would have told them what he thought.    

    

After all, he wasn't dead yet.    

    

While he was talking, Young Master Xi always blamed himself for this incident. He said that the other party must have come for them. After all, these guys who were hiding in the depths of Qin Country had been noticed by others, and they had started to take action.    

    

However, this was only on the surface.    

    

Xiao Yun actually understood Young Master Xi's intention.    

    

The reason why he invited Xiao Yun to come at the very beginning.    

    

All the way to the subtle clues that were revealed in his words.    

    

In fact, it was subtly making Xiao Yun realize one thing.    

    

Or rather... deliberately made him realize one thing.    

    

It was like hypnotizing and brainwashing.    

    

He could not say it out loud from Young Master Xi's mouth. It could only be Xiao Yun's own thoughts.    

    

The one who assassinated Xiao Yun back then and the one who assassinated Prime Minister Qiu now were the same group of people!    

    

Xiao Yun didn't know why Young Master Xi had deliberately led Xiao Yun in this direction.    

    

Naturally, he would also feel somewhat annoyed.    

    

After all, the possibility of such a thing happening was too low.    

    

It was so low that it could be ignored.    

    

But did it happen?    

    

It was undeniable that there was such a possibility!    

    

Until Xiao Yun left the restaurant.    

    

He stood on the long street outside.    

    

Turning his head to look at the South City that was being built like a raging fire, Xiao Yun's expression became complicated.    

    

There were many people who wanted to take his life.    

    

Someone had appeared among them. For some strange reason, he wanted to take Prime Minister Qiu's life.    

    

In other words, the two of them overlapped.    

    

This didn't seem to be something difficult to understand.    

    

Taking a deep breath, he took a few steps forward, and a few carriages drove over at the same time.    

    

The leading carriage was a carriage from the Shangguan family.    

    

The young man on the carriage waved at Xiao Yun.    

    

Xiao Yun thought for a moment and was stunned. His face darkened.    

    

This simple expression still did not escape the young man's observation.    

    

The young man jumped off the carriage and came in front of Xiao Yun with three steps and two steps. He bowed to the end.    

    

Young master, what happened before was all my fault. I hope young master won't blame the entire Shangguan family for this.    

    

The Shangguan family thought the same? 】    

    

Of course!    

    

Are they stupid? And they sent you out?    

    

Outsiders did not know much about this person's identity.    

    

However, Xiao Yun, who was half a member of the Shangguan family, knew him very well.    

    

Back then, Xiao Yun's mother and father had died in the battlefield, and she would stay at the northern border forever. However, Xiao Yun's mother had a huge fortune in the Shangguan family.    

    

This was not only the inheritance, but also the reward for her meritorious service that she had accumulated during her many years of hard work on the battlefield.    

    

In other words, it was very expensive.    

    

Although she was married to the Xiao family, she didn't take away those properties.    

    

It wasn't considered a dowry either.    

    

However, these things still belonged to her.    

    

If she lost them, these things would naturally become Xiao Yun's.    

    

Before Xiao Yun reincarnated, the original Xiao Yun had gone to the Shangguan family to ask for it because he didn't have the money. In the end, he was beaten out of his home.    

    

The one who led the attack was this guy in front of him.    

    

Of course, this was what Qing'er said.    

    

The guy in front of her who called himself a servant of the Shangguan family had an extremely high status and authority in the Shangguan family.    

    

He was the illegitimate son of the old master of the Shangguan family!    

    

Imagine, who would believe that a 90-year old man would suddenly have a son?    

    

Twenty years ago, when the old master of the Shangguan family was gone, this matter was suppressed by the people of the Shangguan family.    

    

Simply put, it was an extremely complicated matter.    

    

In just a single family, there were people who wished for him to die, but there were also people who were waiting for him to inherit the entire Shangguan family.
