The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

Chapter 684: Secret letter

This guess is very possible.

Among the more than ten tribes in southern Xinjiang, only Wumiao and Xuemiao are in the same line, using poisonous insects and poisonous weeds as a means of confronting the enemy.

If anyone can sneak into Xuemiao quietly, it must be inseparable from Wumiao.

The elder who spoke first asked: "Thinking that the seventh prince of Zhou killed the patriarch, is this just the guess of the elder Rong?"

Elder Rong was startled: "Elder Bai, what do you mean?"

Elder Bai said in a deep voice: "Since the patriarch sent Ah Shan to kill Zhou Qi's prince, why did the patriarch and Ah Shan die in this fire? Is it possible that the Zhou Qi prince guessed that the patriarch wanted to be against him and chose to act first. Strong?"

"It might not be possible." said the elder Rong.

"Then Elder Rong knows why the patriarch wanted to get rid of Zhou Qi's prince?"

Elder Rong was asked.

He has only gained the trust of the patriarch in recent years, and some things are not clear.

Upon seeing this, Elder Bai smiled secretly.

He knew why the patriarch wanted to kill the Seventh Prince of Zhou.

When I first learned of the hexagrams of the Wu and Miao tribe, the patriarch had mentioned it to him, arguing for a solution to the Zhou Qi prince, but he opposed it.

He believed that the hexagrams were nothing but nonsense, and Xue Miao was at a disadvantage to Shang Wu Miao, and once a grudge with Da Zhou, it would be even worse.

Who knows whether that hexagram is true or is it a bait that Wumiao deliberately released.

The patriarch is radical, and he prefers to be safe, and because of this, the two people who don't agree with each other gradually move away.

Until now, the patriarch did not reveal a word to him directly.

"So, thinking that the patriarch sent Ah Shan to assassinate the Seventh Prince of Zhou last night is just a matter of elders."

Elder Rong was furious: "Elder Bai, do you doubt me?"

Elder Bai smiled: "I didn't mean it, but I don't want to easily provoke the hatred between my clan and Da Zhou. After all, the patriarch just left, it is unwise for us to face both Wu Miao and Da Zhou."

"Elder Bai, are you afraid of Da Zhou? Could it be that the patriarch's hatred will not be reported?"

Elder Bai said with a cold expression: "If the seventh prince of Zhou really killed the patriarch, of course you can’t just leave it alone. I just said that you can’t jump to conclusions too hastily. Just say Ah Shan. According to Elder Rong, he went to assassinate Zhou Qi. How do you explain that his body was found in a burning room?"

"Elder Bai, what do you say?" the patriarch's son asked.

Elder Bai felt a little more joyful in his heart, but his face remained calm: "It is natural to find out the truth first. On the one hand, I will check the whereabouts of the Seventh Prince of Zhou, on the other hand, I will go to Wumiao to ask what happened."

"Go to Wumiao?" Everyone was surprised.

Hearing what Elder Bai said, he didn’t agree with Elder Rong’s statement, so why did the wind change again?

Elder Bai said with grief: "There was no trauma to the patriarch. One possibility was that he died of accidental water leakage. Another possibility was that he was accused of being unable to escape before his death. If it is the latter, he can sneak into the patriarch’s study and suppress it. The patriarch’s feeding of gu worms caused the patriarch to lose the power to resist, and the perpetrators must not do without the help of Wumiao, even the Wumiao people!"

After Elder Bai said, everyone was silent for a long time, and an elder said: "But we have no evidence. There is no trauma to the patriarch. Elder Wumiao can say that the patriarch died by accident."

Elder Bai sneered: "We insist that the patriarch was harmed by others, and Wu Miao must always show something. Don't worry, I will go to Wu Miao personally to seek justice for the patriarch."

Everyone saluted: "Then please ask Elder Bai."

Under the patriarch, Elder Bai was already the most powerful, and naturally no one wanted to offend him at this time.

Elder Bai saw everyone doing this, although there was grief on his face, but he was quite satisfied in his heart.

It is the business to gather the clansmen through the death of the patriarch and become the new patriarch. As for the rest, I will talk about it later.

Seeing this, Elder Rong had to suppress the injustice in his heart, and the secret path turned his head back and decided to have a good talk with the young master, and could not let Elder Bai be proud.

After that, Elder Bai went to find Wu Miao to settle accounts in order to obtain benefits. Some Xue Miao people started to investigate where Zhou Qi's prince was staying, and the subsequent struggle for power within Xue Miao became more and more fierce, so there is no need to elaborate.

The carriage going north left these chaos far away, getting closer and closer to the capital.

One step faster than Jiang Si was a secret letter that fell on the Dragon Case in front of Emperor Jingming.

Looking at the letter signed by Agent Jinlinwei, Emperor Jing Ming almost couldn't wait to open the letter.

At the beginning of the year, Hongxiqing and others were dispatched to the Umiao, and Jinlinwei agents were mixed in among them. Later, when Hongxiqing and others returned, several Jinlinwei remained in the south as ordinary people.

Regarding the mysterious Wu Miao, Emperor Jing Ming was extremely vigilant, and naturally wanted to grasp some of the movements there.

After reading the letter, Emperor Jing Ming leaned back in his chair and was speechless for a while.

Pan Hai silently poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Emperor Jingming, without saying anything.

After a long while, Emperor Jingming told Pan Hai: "Please come over, the queen."

As soon as Pan Hai led his orders, Emperor Jingming changed his mind and stood up and said, "Fine, go to Kunning Palace."

It was the morning when the dragon was burning in the house, and the queen was holding silver scissors and was focusing on trimming a pot of flowers by the window.

"Niang, the emperor is here."

The queen let go of the silver scissors and walked up quickly: "Why is the emperor here at this time?"

Emperor Jingming walked in and sat down at will, his face made people unable to see the happiness and anger for a while.

Seeing this, the queen didn't ask any more, waved to the maidservant to retreat, and poured a cup of tea for Emperor Jingming herself.

Emperor Jingming stretched out his hand to take it, rubbed the fine porcelain tea cup for a moment, and said, "The spy from the south staring at Wu Miao has received a letter."

The queen took a relaxed look and stood up solemnly: "What's happening over there?"

Emperor Jingming nodded and said: "Not long ago, it was rumored in southern Xinjiang that the Wu Miao sage was no longer alive, but the Wu Miao sage appeared on the New Fire Festival..."

The queen raised her eyebrows in surprise: "So, is it true that Saint Wumiao has not shown her face for several years in retreat?"

"I don't know whether to retreat or not, but one thing is very strange."

"what's up?"

Emperor Jingming paused, then said: "The letter says that it is difficult for outsiders to sneak into Wumiao during the New Fire Festival. They hide from a high place and look through a long-distance mirror, and find that the saint Wumiao... looks exactly like the old seventh wife..."

The queen was really taken aback: "There is such a bizarre thing?"

Emperor Jingming's expression was a bit complicated, and he pondered for a long time and said: "The seventh daughter-in-law claims to be born with strange arts, but she has a similar appearance to the saint Wumiao... By the way, queen, you said before that the seventh daughter-in-law prayed for the seventh chanting. Can't get out?"

The queen's heart beat and nodded calmly.

"In this way, the seventh wife hasn't been out for many days, right?"

"Yes."

Emperor Jingming tapped his fingers on the tabletop lightly, obviously hesitating.

The queen had a faint guess in her heart, not much to say.

After a long time, Emperor Jingming made a decision: "Let's send someone to the Yanwang Mansion to see."
