Chapter 36 Other findings

Jiang Zhidao thanked Zhuo Ruitong for his tolerance. Seeing that Zhuo Ruitong's heart was so broad and open-minded, he was more determined to help. Then he told the three of them what he thought and asked Zhuo Ruitong to use the power of the palace to find the old hunter.

Nie Kong thought for a moment and said, "Are you sure that the old hunter can lead the way around the forces of the Beirong tribe and avoid their encirclement and interception?"

Huanxuan and Zhuo Ruitong seemed to have the same question, so they also turned to look at Jiang Zhidao and waited for his answer.

Jiang Zhidao paused and said, "I'm not sure that I can avoid the Beirong bandits on the way, but I'm more sure that I can find the old hunter to lead the way."

"Okay, in that case, you must find the old hunter as soon as possible!" Listen to it happily.

"Well, I still remember that the old hunter came to Wei County with our caravan. He seemed to have said that he would settle down with several houses in Wei County, so it should not be difficult to find him." Jiang Zhidao said.

Zhuo Ruitong nodded and told Nie Kong to tell Lu Zisong and others to quickly find the whereabouts of the old hunter.

After Jiang Zhidao and Huanying left, Nie Kong discussed with Zhuo Ruitong how to deal with Ji Yuguang. After some discussion, the two agreed to pry his mouth open first to see what he knew, and then determine his value and how to deal with it. Therefore, Nie Kong came to the backyard of the palace and ordered people to take away Ji Yuguang.

Ji Yuguang thought he was going to kill him in a panic, so he shouted, "You guys, where are you going to take me?" Nie Kong came over and covered his mouth and whispered in his ear, "Don't be excited. I'm just taking you to a place. You will know when you go there!" Ji Yuguang had to stop talking after hearing this, and the obedient guard took him away.

On the way, Ji Yuguang found that he was getting more and more remote, and his heart couldn't help but feel weak and sweating coldly all over his body. About an hour later, a group of people from Nie Kong came to a cemetery in the suburbs. In front of a grave, Nie Kong ordered, "Excavate it!" After receiving the order, the two soldiers dug the grave with a shovel and carried out a white body. Ji Yuguang was so scared that he turned his face away. Nie Kong pulled his head and said, "D. Ji, please take a look. Have you ever known this person?" Ji Yuguang looked at the white corpse and looked carefully. Only then did he find that the body had not decayed because it was preserved with lime powder. Looking at the man's face, he was stunned. It turned out that he was the assassin who assassinated Huanying in the city last time.

Seeing that Ji Yu Guang was silent, Nie Kong asked again, "D. Ji, have you ever known this person?" Ji Yuguang glanced at the assassin's body again, turned his head to the other side, and still didn't say anything.

Nie Kong turned his head, moved his eyebrows again, and stared at Ji Yuguang with a smile and said, "D. Ji, what do you think will happen if I transport this body to the capital and send it to Zhongxin Houfu?" After saying that, he continued to look at Ji Yuguang with a smile on his face.

Ji Yuguang raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He sighed, "Now, I'll tell the truth. If I hide it any more, I still can't save my life. In the end, I have to involve my wife and children... However, Manager Nie, before I say it, you have to promise me a condition."

"Let's talk about it first. Let me hear what the conditions are." Nie Kong said a little impatiently.

Ji Yuguang knelt down to Nie Kong and cried, "Chief Nie, my husband's wife and children are innocent. They don't know anything. I don't want to involve them, so I want you to ensure the safety of my wife and children for me. I'm not afraid of death, but Xiaobao still Xiao..." Ji Yuguang said without feeling that he was in tears.

Nie Kong frowned and pulled up Ji Yu Guang and said, "As long as you are honest and tell me everything you know, I will definitely protect your wife and children's safety, and I can even tell the Lord that he will save you from the death!"

"Okay, okay, I must be frank and tell you everything I know!" Ji Yuguang opened his eyes wide to Nie Kongdao as if he had seen hope before he died.

Then, Nie Kong and his party left the cemetery with Ji Yuguang. After returning to the Wei Palace, they locked Ji Yuguang into the previous room. After Nie Kong ordered the others to retreat, he moved a stool and sat down, and greeted Ji Yuguang to sit down at the desk.

"Then you can start with why you sneaked in Weijun!" Nie Kong frowned.

After sitting up straight, Ji Yuguang sorted out his emotions and began to explain: "Actually, this started many years ago. At that time, I was still practicing medicine in the capital and was quite famous because of my medical skills. Once, I was recruited by a senior official to treat his mother, but I accidentally used the wrong medicine. Several drugs were poisoned in the body. As a result, the senior official's mother died in Huangquan that night. The senior official arrested me in anger and put me in prison saying that he would be beheaded after autumn. A few months later, when it was near autumn, my family heard that the prisoner who was responsible for killing me was a distant relative of my mother. Then they spent a lot of money to buy the jailer, bribed the prisoner, and finally rescued me.

"Then you did a detailed work next?" Nie Kong listened to his story and asked.

"Nonye, after escaping from death, I changed my appearance, changed my name, and finally came to Weijun, which is far away from the capital with my bag. I thought that I don't have to hide in this remote place anymore, and I can spend the rest of my life safely. After coming to Weijun, I was not familiar with the place of life. In order to survive, I had to open a small medical center with the rest of my body. From then on, I have been conscientious and careful. A period of time later, it happened that the royal palace was recruiting medical officers. I participated in the recruitment with a try. As a result, I was lucky enough to be selected and became a medical officer in the palace from then on. However, what I never expected was that I was somehow mastered by the loyal Hou Louxun of the capital. One day, I received an anonymous letter, in which I explained all my details one by one, and threatened me to listen to his command and work for it. In desperation, I had no choice but to agree... In this way, I became a fine work. Ji Yuguang sighed after speaking.

After listening to Nie Kong in detail, he finally knew the whole thing.

After thinking for a moment, Nie Kong asked again, "So what news have you reported to Lou Xun all these years?"

"Actually, after I compromised and became a detailed work, Lou Xun did not give me many tasks. He only occasionally sent people to ask for some information about the military strength of the royal palace. However, I was helpless. I was just a medical officer who was not clear about the military situation, so I did not provide any useful information... However, since Mrs. Ying came to Wei County, I have been frequent. After receiving the task, I was asked to cooperate with the dead sent to kill Mrs. Ying. Ji Yuguang replied.

After listening, Nie Kong was puzzled, so he said, "Since you and the assassin are in the same group and intend to kill Mrs. Shadow, why do you poison the assassin who assassinated Mrs. Shadow?"

The dispute with the assassin at that time came to my mind, and Ji Yuguang replied, "I remember that I had an argument with the assassin about a trivial matter that day. He threatened to kill me. I was so angry for a moment, and I was poisoned by his anger."

"Oh? Dispute, why are you arguing? Nie Kong Road.

"The hairy boy actually said that I was a charlatan and suspected that my medicine had no effect. I was angry for a moment and retorted. As a result, he was so angry that he threatened that killing me was as easy as pinching an ant. He was really angry that he was threatened by a monkey at my age!" Ji Yuguang explained angrily.

Nie Kong played with a teacup on the table and continued to ask, "Aren't those assassins all specially trained dead men?" If you don't poison him, he will bite the poison pill between his teeth and kill himself after being caught. Why do you have to do this?

Seeing Nie Kong staring at himself suspiciously, Ji Yuguang continued, "In fact, in addition to being unwilling to be threatened by him, on the other hand, I poisoned him for the sake of safety. As soon as he can successfully kill Mrs. Shadow and complete the task and return to the agreed place, I will quietly give him the wine with the antidote. As long as he drinks it, it will be fine. On the contrary, if he doesn't rush back to the agreed place, it means that something has happened to him. In that case, he will die in Jiuye whether he kills or not. The gorgeous purple grass is poisoned. Isn't this even more foolproof!"

Hearing this, Nie Kong couldn't help thinking in his heart: This Ji Yu Guang is really cruel. No wonder the assassin shouted "Remember, remember..." before he died. Suddenly, he thought about it. Although he had always suspected Ji Yu Guang, he never caught any handle of him, but dripped everywhere. Therefore, he suspected that there was another master behind Ji Yuguang's guidance. So, he continued to ask, "In the past few years, you have been so careful and cautious that you have not revealed any flaws. I'm afraid you can't do it with your own strength, right?"

In the face of Nie Kong's doubts, Ji Yuguang had to sigh at Nie Kong's meticulousness. All the details could not escape his eyes and were considered by him. After a long silence, he replied, "General Manager Nie is indeed a military division. He can't hide anything from your eyes. I have been lurking in the palace for many years without being recognized. It's all under the cover of Ning Ji!"

In shock, Nie Kong was degraded: It turned out that someone really had another chance, but I never thought that this person was Ning Tang'er. How many identities does this Ning Tang'er have? Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking, "What is Ning Ji's real identity?" What does she have to do with Lou Xun?

Ji Yuguang listened to Nie Kong's questioning and shook his head and said, "I don't know Ning Ji's true identity. I just received the news that all actions in Weijun should be obeyed by her. I didn't see her reveal her identity when she usually acted. She just ordered me to follow the order!"

Seeing that Ji Yuguang didn't seem to be lying, he thought that he might not know Ning Tanger's true identity, so he didn't continue to ask. He just felt that the matter was not small and complicated, so he ordered someone to take Ji Yuguang to prison and sent someone to guard him strictly. He went straight to Zhuo Ruitong to report it.

In the Buddhist hall, after the birthday banquet, Ning Tanger has been clamoring to see Zhuo Ruitong all day, but Zhuo Ruitong is busy with the amount of birthday gifts and buying horses, and has no time to take care of her at all. In addition, there were guards around the Buddhist hall, so that Wen Jian had no chance to approach, so she was anxious and anxious in the Buddhist hall, and it was difficult to sleep and eat.

He was happy to know that Zhuo Ruitong and Nie Kong were busy, so he met with Jiang Zhidao every day to discuss the purchase of horses in Yuzi and urged Lu Zisong to find the whereabouts of the old hunter. In the Liu Goblet Palace, Huanxuan said to Jiang Zhidao with a disappointed face, "I heard from Commander Lu that he has found out the whereabouts of the old hunter, but he doesn't want to go out of the mountain again."

Jiang Zhidao then said, "I'd better go to him in person. I believe he will remember me. As long as the situation is clear, I think he will promise to lead the way."

"How to tell the situation? As you know, the fewer people know about this, the better!" Huanxuan couldn't help worrying.

"Don't worry, I know what to do. What I'm talking about is that I'm just thinking about a past reason to persuade him to lead the way for us!" Jiang Zhidao smiled and said to Huanxuan.

Huanxuan also smiled gently and said, "That's good. There will be Brother Lao in this matter!"

"Don't be polite to me, ah!" After Jiang Zhidao finished speaking, he then left the Goblet Palace to find the old hunter.

Nie Kong saw Zhuo Ruitong and told him the whole interrogation of Ji Yuguang. Zhuo Ruitong was shocked, but he was also deeply puzzled in some places like Nie Kong. Nie Kong then said, "This Lou Xun was originally only heard that he was a profit-seeing, sinister and cunning person. I didn't expect it to be more than that simple. It seems that this person is difficult to deal with. His power can't be underestimated. We will take more precautions in the future!"

Zhuo Ruitong frowned and said, "If this Lou Xun is really only the minions of Empress Dowager Li, then he arranges all this so carefully and arranges everything carefully. Is it really just for the court? I'm afraid it's not that simple.

While listening to Zhuo Ruitong talking about Nie Kong, he continued to think. After Zhuo Ruitong said, he immediately said, "This man can easily find out Ji Yuguang's old age, and then blackmail him to use it. Under this time of war, you think he is really willing to be recruited by the Empress Dowager Li. Is she driving it?"

"Well, it's true. With the current situation, we can only infer that this person is by no means kind and unfathomable. It's not as simple as it seems!" Zhuo Ruitong looked at Nie Kongdao.

He hesitated for a moment, and Nie Kong said, "But Lord, your beautiful and kind pet Ji Ningtang'er is really not simple!"

Zhuo Ruitong said unhappily, "You Nie Kong, don't make fun of me!"

"Ha ha, I'm telling the truth. She is really complicated!" Nie Kong continued.

Zhuo Ruitong shook his sleeve and said angrily, "Well, she has been lurking in the royal palace for so many years. In addition to being made by Bei Rong, she is also entangled with Lou Xun. What is the identity of this insidious and evil woman?"

Seeing Zhuo Ruitong's beard and staring at the table, Nie Kong quickly advised: "Her identity is indeed complicated, but why don't you think about it? The more complicated her identity is, the more she knows. As long as we control her and master her every move, it will be beneficial and harmless to us!"

Hearing Nie Kong say this, Zhuo Ruitong turned his eyes and smiled, "Nie Kong, you are still the most 'cunning'. Even the old fox Ji Yuguang was recognized by you and pried his mouth open!"

Nie Kong laughed and said, "Well, Lord, this is not good! How can I say that I'm cunning? This is called strategy, strategy!"

"Okay, okay, okay! You have a strategy. You are worthy of being my great strategist. Come on!" Zhuo Ruitong smiled and said deliberately.

Nie Kong then arched his hand and said, "Concession, concession! Even if I am a thousand-mile horse, I still owe it to your appreciation and promotion!"

......

After making a joke and flattering each other, both of them stopped their smiles and said together, "Let's talk about something serious!"

At this time, Zhuo Ruitong couldn't help but fall into distress and only heard him say, "What on earth do you think Ning Tang'er should do?" Living in the palace of Weijun, she actually had an affair with both sides, maybe more than that! In the past few years, she has been angry with Ji Yu Guangxuan and secretly crossed Chencang. We didn't notice it at all. I really don't know whether we were careless or she hid it too well... Now, when I think of her dramatic face, I'm inexplicably angry!"

"Please calm your anger! This Ning Tanger is hateful, but she is still of great use to us and can't move now. Therefore, Lord, you should be wronged first and continue to deal with her to the end!" Nie Kong said seriously.

After listening to what Nie Kong said, Zhuo Ruitong's face was full of helplessness and sighed, "It seems that this is the only way!"

On the side of Liu Goblet Palace, Xiaoci brought a cup of tea and said to the tired eldest grandson Huanying, who had just come back from outside, "Madam, have a cup of tea!"

After taking the tea cup, Huanying looked at Xiaoci and said, "I finally persuaded the old hunter. Under the persuasion of Brother Jiang, he promised to lead us the way. This time, it's really thanks to Brother Jiang!"

"Well, that's good. Mr. Jiang is really a good man!" Xiaoci said with a smile.

Huanxuan also smiled and sighed, "I think this should be Dad's spirit in heaven to bless me. Bless me to meet Brother Jiang and get his help in the Weide..." Xiaoci knew that Huanxuan must be missing her relatives and hometown again. She was afraid that her inadvertently saying something wrong would evoke Huanxuan's sadness, so she bowed her head and was silent. It's hard to say more.

Seeing that Xiaoci did not speak, Huanxuan knew what was thinking in her heart. She opened her mouth slightly and closed it, and finally went straight back to her room. Then, Xiaoci also turned around and went back to the house.

Maybe she was too tired. The next day, she woke up near noon. She got up and came out and saw that Xiaoci had been cleaning the front hall, so she said to Xiaoci, "Xiaoci, why don't you call me?"

Xiaoci turned around and looked at Huanxuan who had got up and said, "Madam, get up! Xiaoci saw that you slept soundly and thought that maybe you were too tired these days, so I didn't call you.

Huanxuan stretched out his arm and said, "Well, maybe it's really too tired!"

After dinner in the afternoon, Huanxuan remembered that he only looked at the birthday gift list last time and did not count it carefully, so he came to the warehouse to count the congratulatory gifts in person.

Zhuo Ruitong was busy all day. Because he had been discussing matters with Nie Kong for the past two days, he didn't have time to go to Liu Goblet Palace, and he didn't see Huan linger. He was very worried about it. So it was not too late to see the sky, so he took advantage of this time to go to visit Huanxuan in the Liu Goblet Palace.

When he came to the Liu Goblet Palace, he saw Xiaoci walking back and forth in the front hall alone. Zhuo Ruitong then walked over and asked Xiaoci, "What about you, madam? Why don't you see your wife?"
