A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1174

[Chapter 116 Confused]

King Damiao had long ago received a letter from Langchadulu who had illicitly communicated with Li Hongxin, but he concealed it and did not report it. Qi Ning naturally understood his intentions.

Once this letter was handed over to the imperial court early, the imperial court was bound to use this letter to deal with Li Hongxin, and the witness of this letter was King Damiao.

King Miao represents the seventy-two caves of the Miao family, and the credibility of his testimony is naturally extremely high.

The court always knew that Li Hongxin would be a disaster if he did not get rid of it one day, but he knew that if he easily attacked Li Hongxin, it would do more harm than good for the state of Chu, and the world was not at peace. After accepting Li Hongxin’s surrender, the arrangements for Li Hongxin were considered very appropriate. Of course, all of this was not to give Li Hongxin any face, but to let the world know that Chu State was very lenient in surrendering the enemy and would not settle accounts after the fall.

The northern kingdom was not at peace, so of course the Chu kingdom did this to prepare for the northern expedition in the future.

It is precisely because of this that if there is no conclusive evidence, the imperial court will not easily take action even if it is afraid of Li Hong’s confidence.

And this letter came from Miao Village, and the evidence provided by Miao Village is of course much more useful than the evidence provided by the court itself.

Even if the court finds evidence, and it is genuine, in the eyes of the world, these evidences are likely to be tricky, and even make people suspect that the court deliberately fabricated it in order to get rid of Li Hongxin.

But the evidence from Miao Village will naturally not make people suspicious.

But Qi Ning knew very well that once King Miao handed over this letter to the imperial court, if he was involved in this turmoil, Miao Village, as the source of evidence, would not be able to put aside right and wrong.

The King of Miao knew that Li Hongxin was a hundred-footed insect. Although it has long lost its glory, it still has a foundation in Xichuan. If Li Hongxin is in trouble because of this letter from Miao Village, then Li Hongxin’s forces will inevitably lead to Miao Village. As an enemy, this includes many aristocratic families in Xichuan. In order to protect the seventy-two holes of the Miao family, of course, King Miao will not provoke this force easily.

It’s just that Ksitigarbha sent someone to sneak into Riyue Peak today, not only to provoke the confrontation between the seventy-two caves of the Miao family and the imperial court, but also to threaten the safety of the Great Witch. Of course, this is something that King Miao cannot tolerate.

Qi Ning had always suspected whether Li Hongxin was from Ksitigarbha, but he had no direct evidence in his hands, but now that I think about it, Ksitigarbha and Li Hongxin both wanted to use the power of the Miao family’s seventy-two caves to cause the Xichuan Rebellion. It can be seen that even if Li Hongxin is not a person from Jizo, the two sides must have reached a covenant in their eyes.

Qi Ning sneered, feeling more and more that Jizo’s move this time was indeed a dangerous move.

Once the plan is successful, the Dawu and any one of himself will die in this plan, which will provoke chaos in Xichuan, and it will be difficult to stop it. However, if the plan fails, Jizo will also face extremely serious consequences.

After that, it was difficult for Jizo to provoke the confrontation between the seventy-two caves of the Miao family and the imperial court, and King Damiao was also enraged by Jizo’s assassination plan, so he took out this letter, and the existence of this letter was directly aimed at. Referring to Li Hongxin, from a certain point of view, the failure of the Ksitigarbha plan this time has caused Li Hongxin to fall into a very serious crisis.

“King Damiao, this letter is in our hands, what do you think we should do next?” Qi Ning did not intend to return the letter to King Damiao: “Are you using this letter to ask Li Hongxin for guilt?”

King Damiao picked up the wine bowl and said: “This letter has been handed over to the Lord, and I have done what I should do. As for how to use this letter, it is the Lord’s own business. Of course, the Lord can say that this is the case. We found it from Langchadulu’s house, and if anyone asks, I will not deny it.” After a pause, he said, “I’m just worried that Li Hongxin won’t admit it!”

“Oh?”

King Damiao took a big sip, put down the wine bowl and said: “Langchadulu secretly colluded with Li Hongxin, the only evidence is this letter, and I can’t come up with any other evidence. Ye took this letter and went to Li Hongxin. Li Hongxin can also be said to be out of nothing. As long as he said that the letter was forged, we could not produce any other evidence to prove that it was written by Li Hongxin.

“Looking at Qi Ning,” said Li Hongxin, when he saw this letter, he would definitely deny it.

”

Qi Ning smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter if he admits it or not. With this letter in my hands, even if he doesn’t want to admit it, he can’t.”

Seeing that Qi Ning was very confident, King Damiao didn’t ask any more questions, but just picked up the bamboo tube and poured wine.

“King Miao, although it’s a bit presumptuous, but…I still have something I want to ask you about.” Qi Ning thought for a while before saying, “If King Miao thinks it’s too presumptuous, you don’t have to answer.”

King Damiao raised his hand and said, “Sir, please speak!”

Qi Ning lowered his voice slightly and said, “King Miao, as far as I know, there was another candidate for the great witch back then, just because something happened, so…!”

Before he could finish speaking, King Miao’s expression changed. He stared straight at Qi Ning’s eyes and asked, “Sir, how did you find out?”

“Da Wu mentioned it.” Seeing King Miao’s reaction, Qi Ning knew that this topic was very sensitive: “It’s just that he didn’t say it in too much detail.”

King Damiao said: “It’s about the Great Witch. Since the Great Witch didn’t say much, it is inconvenient for me to say more, please forgive me.”

Qi Ning didn’t have any hope at all. Seeing King Damiao’s reaction, he knew that it was difficult to get news from King Damiao, so he cupped his hands and said, “I took the liberty.”

King Damiao’s face was rather dignified, and after a moment of silence, he sighed and said: “The big witch can tell you this, it is very frank to the lord. In fact, there was indeed another candidate for the big witch back then, and if nothing else happened, everything We are all ready, but…!” He shook his head and smiled bitterly: “It happened unexpectedly, and it caught everyone off guard at the time, but…!” He hesitated, but he didn’t Go on, pick up the wine bowl, and drink it all down.

“King Miao, with all due respect, I don’t know if that incident has anything to do with the Black Lotus Sect?” Qi Ning asked.

King Damiao was stunned and asked in surprise: “How does the lord know?” But as soon as he said it, he knew that he had made a blunder. This sentence means that if you admit that the accident of the year was indeed related to the Black Lotus Sect, you want to take back the too late.

The corners of Qi Ning’s eyes twitched slightly, and he said, “It turns out that it really has something to do with the Black Lotus Sect.”

Qi Ning’s mention of the Black Lotus Sect was not groundless. In fact, he only asked this question after careful consideration.

Qi Ning had seen the true face of the Miao family witch. The Miao family witch was naturally beautiful and had a refined temperament, but when Qi Ning first saw the witch, she immediately thought of Tang Nuo.

Tang Nuo’s appearance was very similar to Da Wu’s, but Da Wu’s temperament was out of the ordinary, while Tang Nuo was cold and elegant, but his face, outline and even facial features were very similar. At that time, Qi Ning felt very strange and vaguely felt There must be some kind of relationship between Tang Nuo and the great witch of the Miao family.

However, Qi Ning could also see that although Da Wu was not young, his eyebrows were straight and his legs were straight. He was obviously a virgin. Tang Nuo could not have been born by Da Wu. It’s not uncommon for him to look alike. After all, if he can become the Prince of Jinyi, he looks exactly like the Prince of Jinyi, which is why it’s fake.

But today, when I heard that Da Wu still has a sister, my mind became active. When I thought of what happened back then, I wondered if Tang Nuo had something to do with that Ruyan?

Tang Nuo and the little demon girl Anao are sisters, and the two are inextricably linked with the Black Lotus Sect. Therefore, Qi Ning wondered whether Senior Ruyan was also related to the Black Lotus Sect?

He wasn’t sure, just doubted, but when he casually tested it, King Damiao was caught off guard and blurted out. Qi Ning was slightly startled, thinking that Ruyan really had something to do with the Black Lotus Sect. In this way, Tang Nuo and Anao There must be some connection with Ruyan.

He didn’t have any evidence, so naturally he couldn’t be sure that Ruyan would definitely be Tang Nuo’s mother, but he already had such doubts in his heart.

According to the great witch, the position of the great witch of the Miao family was originally inherited by Ruyan, but something happened to Ruyan, so she chose another person. Now it can be determined that what happened to Ruyan is of course related to the Black Lotus Sect. There are relationships.

The heir of the great witch, why is he involved with the Black Lotus Sect?

Although the Black Lotus Sect is dominated by the Miao family and is a Jianghu sect founded by the Miao family, the Miao Family Seventy-two Caves do not care about the existence of the Black Lotus Sect, and they do not even regard the Black Lotus Sect as their own.

Logically speaking, the head of the Black Lotus is one of the five great masters. There is a great master in the Miao family. The Miao people should be proud. Very alienated, perhaps because of the existence of the Great Witch, there are no two people in the sky, and there are no two masters. The Miao family who believe in the Great Witch does not accept a great master, and they reject the Black Lotus Sect.

That being the case, if Tang Nuo is really the descendant of Ruyan, why are Tang Nuo and Anao in the Black Lotus Sect and have such a close relationship with the Black Lotus Sect?

Could it be that Ruyan was expelled from the Miao family because it was too close to the Black Lotus Sect and deprived the great witch of the inheritance right?

Qi Ning was puzzled. At this time, the sound of cocks crowing suddenly came from outside, and King Miao stood up and said, “Sir, I have a heavy responsibility for what happened last night. After dawn, I will personally go to meet the witch and tell her Please forgive me, so I can’t accompany you more. You have worked hard all the way, you can take a rest in the stockade, and you will have enough energy. After I come back, let’s continue drinking. ”

Knowing that King Miao didn’t want to continue talking about Ruyan, he also got up and said, “King Miao, this time I trespassed into the forbidden area of the Miao family. There are a lot of things to do, so I can’t stay here for a long time, and when I have time, I’ll accompany King Damiao to drink.” He cupped his hands and said, “This time, let’s stop here and talk about it in the future!”

King Damiao thought for a moment, then nodded and said, “Since this is the case, I will not delay the work of the Lord. I am going to see the Great Witch. I can’t take the Lord out of the mountain in person, so please forgive me.” He went out and shouted, “Lahu !”

Someone downstairs immediately responded, and King Damiao instructed: “Bring a few people to escort the lord out of the mountain, and make sure to ensure the safety of the lord.”

Lahu agreed, Qi Ning had come out, and once again bowed his hands to Dandugu, the king of Miao, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, the dawn appeared, and the whole mountain was bathed in the light of the morning. The coming of the dawn light has become the past.
