Chapter 222
On this day, the entire capital city was extremely quiet.

Li Chengqian pressed his sword against the capital, creating a great commotion, but all the Qi people who saw that scene directly or indirectly kept silent about it.

It seems very tacit understanding.

For such an earth-shattering event, they unanimously chose to deal with it coldly.

Qimin, who once claimed to be the kingdom of heaven, could not accept their trembling under the sword of an enemy prince.

Not only the people of Qi State, but even the royal family of Qi State also chose to remain silent.

They tried their best to conceal the fact that their Northern Qi emperor became the coachman of the Prince of Qing.

For a while, the whole city of Shangjing seemed a little calm.

After thinking about it all night, Zhan Doudou made a decree.

First of all, he acknowledged Xiao En's treatment as a hero returning to the country, and then appointed Xiao En to the position of Jinyiwei Tongzhi, from the third rank, only under the heavy burden of Jinyiwei town governor.

And ordered Xiao En to issue a military order in the court.

Find out about Si Lili's poisoning within three days.

Regarding this matter, both civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty maintained an extremely strange silence.

Even Zhong Chong besieged the city and refused.

He even laughed and talked, facing the old man Xiao En with a rather humble attitude, expressing his full support.

Sean was indifferent to this.

After changing into the official uniform of Jin Yiwei Tongzhi, he immediately pulled up a team among Jin Yiwei who completely obeyed his orders.

As a former big devil who made countless people fearful, he had confronted Chen Pingping tit for tat for many years, so it was naturally impossible to rely on his personal force.

Just as there were many people in the Overwatch Council who could die for Chen Pingping, Northern Qi also had many old people who were loyal to him.

These people are all his loyalists, and they will never change their families just because they have been imprisoned for more than ten years.

Of course, with the passage of time, these loyalists of his will inevitably grow older.

But their experience and methods are all the top choices.

The strength of a team that Xiao En has pulled up during this period cannot be underestimated.

It was precisely because of Sean's amazing influence that many people in Northern Qi wanted him to die.

Because Sean's return will definitely touch the interests of many people.

The first to bear the brunt was Shen Zhong, the governor of Jinyiwei. In addition, Zhan Doudou was not very old after all, and she was not even born when Xiao En was all-powerful.

Once Sean returns, with Sean's influence, the imperial power will naturally suffer a huge impact.

You know, Uesugi Tiger, who made the Northern Qi royal family extremely afraid, is also Xiao En's adopted son.

Uesugi Tiger is enough to give them a headache, let alone add Sean?
However, since Li Chengqian spoke that day, the Northern Qi side couldn't refuse at all.

They themselves were the Northern Qi ignorant and good at exchanging captives. As soon as they entered the city, many Northern Qi people shouted and scolded them in the street. They behaved aggressively. Si Lili, who she had promised to exchange for wolf peaches, was suddenly poisoned.

The sufferer spoke, but he was a powerful and unreasonable sufferer, how could they Beiqi have the confidence to refuse?

So Sean's return to power has almost become an established fact that cannot be changed.

And Sean entered the role very quickly, and he seemed particularly energetic when he was in power again.

He immediately surrounded the Qionghua Palace that was used for banquets yesterday, including many musicians and dancers who appeared in Qionghua Palace yesterday. In addition, he had to send someone to check the ins and outs of every dish in it.

Then, when Si Lili entered the palace, where he lived, and who he had contact with, he also began to check the records one by one.

It even went all the way back to the day when Si Lili returned to Shangjing.

A large number of hands were thrown out, and more and more information was naturally obtained.

And this information soon reached the hands of Li Chengqian who was in the Honglu Temple.

He sat beside Si Lili's bed, always paying attention to the toxic changes in her body, while flipping through the information sent by Xiao En specially.

It was only then that he noticed that after Si Lili returned to the capital, he was heavily detained, and he did not return to the palace safely until more than ten days ago.

Logically speaking, all of this should have nothing to do with Shen Zhong.

But he was very clear that the poison that Si Lili had been poisoned penetrated deep into his internal organs, and it was by no means a one-day effort.

Therefore, it is not impossible if Shen Chong had poisoned him in advance.

Of course, the spices replaced by the Qionghua Palace played a huge role in properly triggering the toxicity yesterday.

If anyone who was able to manipulate this matter in the palace was suspected, the Northern Qi Emperor's suspicion was obviously extremely high.

According to common sense, Si Lili was the confidante of the emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty. In order not to give his woman to other men, he wanted to poison her to death, which made sense.

However, knowing the true gender of the Northern Qi emperor, he knew very well that in the entire Northern Qi, Zhan Doudou was probably the least likely person to poison Si Lili.

Moreover, at the risk of angering him, poisoning Si Lili in front of him, what's the point of Zhan Doudou doing this?
Of course, in the Northern Qi Dynasty, all kinds of forces were intricate and complex. Apart from Shen Chong and the others he knew well, there were also some not weak forces in the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Thinking about this, Li Chengqian couldn't help showing a bit of irritability.

"Shocking Salamander, where is the person in charge of this trap?"

In the corner, the startled salamander was silent for a moment, and said softly: "There is no reply, something must have happened."

Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes slightly, and a gleam of cold light shot out.

Ever since he dispatched people to Jianzhou and Nanjing respectively, there was only one core member of the net left in the upper capital.

That is to say, the kind of personnel who come through the recruitment card and have 100% loyalty.

But the number of downlines under his command in the past few years is no less than a hundred.

Many of them are outstanding secret spies who have undergone rigorous training.

So it's actually quite a force.

Xiao En, Luo Wang, and even the Overwatch Council, the three forces are combined into one, and there is almost nothing that can be hidden from him in the entire Shangjing City.

Therefore, after he released Xiao En's idle move, he naturally immediately summoned the snares.

With the level of a startled salamander, the trappers would definitely respond to a summons, but now there is no news for a day, obviously something happened.

Li Chengqian found that since he came to the capital, he seemed to be in trouble everywhere.

Looking at Si Lili, who had a pale complexion and a weak breath beside him, he pondered for a while, and in the midst of his mental shock, an invisible fluctuation quickly centered on him and spread towards the entire Shangjing City, including dozens of miles around.

After a while, the fantasy world has opened.

Numerous breaths of life flooded into his mind, and following that subtle connection, he soon locked an extremely weak breath of life somewhere.

The person in charge of Luowang, who presides over the affairs of the capital, seems to be in a bad situation.
