The Peerless Demon of Martial Arts

Chapter 714

Li Tianxing was still eating and almost choked: "What did you say? Sarna was killed? When did it happen? Didn't he have many followers?"

"The man died in Wuliting on the outskirts of the capital. There were 230 and seven of his attendants. People in Dali Temple found 230 and six corpses. Among them were Sarna's, and one person was missing. It seems to be from Sarna. My vassal Beru."

Li Tianxing was stunned. Of course, ordinary people would not cause trouble for the grassland king's chariot team. There was a flag on it, and the people of Jianghu dared not do it.There is nothing valuable on the carriage and horse team, who would have nothing to do to kill the grassland king.

Tian Haofeng said: "According to my opinion, it is likely that other tribes did it. They wanted to use this to cause war between the imperial court and the Sarna tribe."

Don't worry, Li Tianxing went to the scene.

The body was not carried away, and for such a big event, the people of Dali Temple would not destroy the scene at will before Li Tianxing arrived.Each corpse has a knife wound on its body. Judging from the method, it looks like it was done by Ouchi's guards.But the Ouchi guards will not leave the palace, and are under the jurisdiction of Xichang Cui Gong.

Received the summons, Cui Gong hurried here: "Slave Cui Qilong kowtows to the emperor."

"Get up." Li Tianxing stood up and wiped his hands with a handkerchief: "Cui Qilong, I will leave this case to you. You must investigate clearly, and quickly. I will give you a warrant. Anyone inside or outside the imperial city will You can ask anyone, you can check anyone, and you must find the murderer in the shortest possible time."

"The slave leads the order."

…………

Inside the deep palace, Concubine Qi was admiring the moon in the pavilion, Cui Gong came, and the inseparable man.

"Master." Cui Gong called out very respectfully.

Concubine Qi said: "Good luck, this job really fell on your head. Li Tianxing can't trust those ministers now, and the only ones who can investigate the case are you and Dongchang's Duke Wen, but he is busy now. Zha Tian Haofeng, you are safe."

Cui Gong said: "Li Tianxing gave me a warrant, and anyone can ask questions. This means that in the capital, except for Li Tianxing, I have the greatest right. Whatever the master has ordered, the subordinates will definitely obey."

Concubine Qi waved her hand: "Don't move around for the time being. After all, Li Tianxing is very skilled in martial arts, and you two can't beat him together. I won't miss, so... everything depends on your brain. You just keep procrastinating on this matter. News from the grassland."

The man next to him said: "Master, there is news from the Tianxiameng that Wudi is willing to cooperate with us. He has only one condition: let Li Tianxing die."

"Death?" Concubine Qi hummed: "Is it that easy? Who doesn't know that Li Tianxing is invulnerable to all poisons, and weapons can't get close to him. Well, he is invincible, so give me a problem. However, this ally is still necessary , things may as well be agreed first, as for what will happen in the future, no one can tell."

"Then, what about Princess Baori?"

"Don't kill her, save her life, lock her up first, and don't allow anyone to see her."

Seven days have passed, and there is still no news about Xichang's handling of the case. This is considered very slow in the past history.Li Tianxing urged the people in the West Factory many times, but to no avail.However, the news that Concubine Qi's people were quickly brought to various tribes in the grassland, plus the surviving people, this matter has become the fuse.

The escaped minister Beru cried bitterly when he saw Sarna's wife, son and several brothers and sisters, saying how insidious Li Tianxing was.Sarna's son has a bad temper, and the women in the family have no knowledge. They want to raise an army to question the court. After all, the death of the king has brought too much blow.The son sent a letter to the great kings of the various tribes, asking them to discuss how to deal with the imperial court.

The imperial court has an army in the northwest, but there are not many people. After Li Tianxing went to the northwest last time, many people were dismissed.The grassland is in the Northeast, and there are fewer people. There is only an army of tens of thousands of people. It is okay to guard the checkpoints.However, it is not an easy task for Sarna's son, Mengwei, to organize several tribes, because no one will obey him, and each has his own plans.

"Uncle Yaxon, my father and you are close friends, you have to help this time no matter what, he can't die in vain."

Yaxon chewed the mutton, and spoke lightly: "Nephew, you don't need to be so excited. The imperial court has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. Even if our tribes are all united, there are only [-] to [-] soldiers and horses. It can't resist the iron cavalry of the imperial army at all."

Dorot, the feudal king next to him, said: "Meng Wei, do you think your father died in vain? In my opinion, he brought the blame on himself. Originally, our grassland was a monopoly, and he insisted on submitting confessions to the court every year. I want to give my daughter to the emperor twice to be his concubine. Judging by other people’s faces, it’s better to decide everything by myself. Now the emperor is dissatisfied with him, and secretly sent someone to kill him. It’s really a loss for his daughter and his life.”

Meng Wei yelled: "Dorot! Be careful what you say!"

"Hmph! You, a junior, dare to talk to me like that. Don't say it's you, even if your father Sarna is here, you have to give me some face!" Dorot said arrogantly: "Now that something happened to you, just It’s like dragging the people of several of our tribes into the water. If the incident is successful, it’s okay. If it fails, then the dark clouds will cover the sun, and the entire grassland will be blood-stained. How can our people survive?! You only think Have you ever thought about us?!"

"Dorot..."

"Shuzi, it's not enough to seek!" Dorot threw down the sheep bone in his hand and put on his hat: "Yakesen, let's talk, my tribe has something to deal with, so I won't accompany you."

The rest of the chiefs of the other tribes were sullen and silent, and they belonged to the neutral faction, neither offending nor doing anyone a favor.To put it bluntly, these people came here to eat roast leg of lamb and relax, whether Sarna died or not had nothing to do with them.

Meng Wei cut a gash on his hand with a knife: "No matter what you do, my Jesalo tribe is definitely incompatible with the Central Plains court. In two months, I will raise troops!"

After finishing speaking, he left angrily, and Yaxon sighed: "Young people, after all, young people. The matter has not been found out, how can he be sure that the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty killed Sarna?"

A vassal asked: "Do you think this is false information?"

"I didn't say that, it's just that it happened suddenly and was very suspicious." Yaxon added firewood to the fire, thoughtfully: "If a person dies on the outskirts of the capital, is it an assassination? Yes, that's too stupid. He should wait for Sarna to enter the grassland before doing it, and he is still wearing the clothes of Ouchi guards. Isn't this place without 300 taels of silver? If so, it might as well be in the palace, Just send someone to kill Sarna directly."

The feudal prince was stupid: "Maybe the emperor figured it out later? He suddenly changed his mind and wanted to kill Sarna."
