Ah ha, I just made a joke to warm up the atmosphere. Master Zhong, don't pay attention.

Looking at Zhong Siqing's small eyes full of sorrow, Li Nuo yawned and said carelessly.

Zhong Siqing glanced at Li Nuo angrily and said gloomily: Master Li, you have gone through a lot of circles. What do you want? Tell me and I will do my best for you.

Li Nuo looked like he was doing his best for Lord Zhong Si and said, Well, Lord Zhong doesn't know something. The demon clan's envoy Peng Wanli is really not in the Waiyi Pavilion at this time. I'm going around in circles to wait for him to come back, so as not to Mr. Zhong is not a good person. It’s a pity that half an hour has passed and he still couldn’t come back in time.”

Zhong Siqing said confidently: Lord Li, you are joking. The guard at the door is my confidant. He has a talent. Even the evil spirit within a mile radius cannot escape his nose. I specially told him to keep an eye on him. Living in the Waiyi Pavilion, if Peng Wanli sneaks out to do evil things, he will definitely not be able to escape his perception.

There is someone outside the mountain and there is heaven outside the mountain, Mr. Zhong!

Li Nuo sighed regretfully: If you don't believe me, then go and see if Peng Wanli is in the room now.

After being questioned, Zhong Siqing's mentality was indeed a bit explosive at this time. He said with an unhappy expression: Then follow me. After meeting Peng Wanli, please stop being a monster!

After a small moment.

The two of them appeared in an elegant garden in the Waiyi Pavilion.

This courtyard has five entrances and five exits, covering an area of ​​three acres. It is specially used to entertain the demon clan's envoys.

Arriving at the main courtyard, Li Nuo turned his back on guests and said arrogantly to the demon guards guarding the entrance of the courtyard: Can your envoy Peng Wanli rest in the room? Hurry in and let us know, Mr. Zhong, the Qing of Dali Temple. coming!

The demon guard knew what was right and was not angered by Li Nuo's bad attitude. He just gave Li Nuo a cold look and then turned around and went into the courtyard to report.

Master Zhong, do we want to make a bet?

Li Nuo became addicted to gambling.

At this time, Zhong Siqing didn't have the slightest favorable impression of Li Nuo. He said angrily: I have nothing to lose, I have no gambling money, and I don't like gambling. Please respect yourself, Mr. Li.

Oh, that's a pity.

Li Nuo felt a little sorry.

My fishing skills still need to be improved.

These high-ranking officials at the ministerial level are too stupid.

A few moments.

The demon guard trotted out, but Li Nuo noticed that this guy's face looked a little unnatural. I saw him saying: I'm sorry, Mr. Zhong, my Mr. Peng has gone to bed. If you have anything to do, we can talk about it tomorrow.

Zhong Siqing was slightly surprised.

He is a dignified third-grade official, and he is still on his own territory, but he was rejected!

Li Nuo had a faint smile on his lips and thought to himself that Peng Wanli had indeed gone out to look for food.

The atmosphere on the court was so awkward.

Zhong Siqing calmed down and was about to express his anger, but Li Nuo quickly grabbed him and left the foreign barbarian hall.

Why did Mr. Li stop me just now?

Zhong Siqing asked in a low voice.

Li Nuo shrugged: Otherwise? Of course it's okay to forcefully break in as an adult, but what should you do if you find that Peng Wanli is not in the room? Do you want to just break up?

Zhong Siqing said angrily: This Peng Wanli really doesn't understand the rules at all. Does he really think that Chang'an City is his Mountain of Ten Thousand Monsters! Mr. Li, please tell the truth. Did Peng Wanli really go to assassinate Hu Mubai?

A real man spits on you and nails him! Besides, what's the benefit of being a low-ranking official and lying to you?

Li Nuo said nonsense seriously.

Jianghu warriors place great value on their promises.

But don't forget, Li Nuo also has another identity - [Fifth Rank Bianyan Realm] Confucian scholar. In this realm, as long as you have a good foundation and sufficient literary talent, it is trivial to talk nonsense or even confuse right and wrong.

Li Nuo paused and continued to speak righteously: Peng Wanli's assassination of Hu Mubai at night is inherently dangerous. According to Hu Mubai's confession, Peng Wanli also suffered considerable injuries. He is probably hiding in a deep mountain and old forest and licking secretly. Just lick your wounds. With Mr. Zhong’s cultivation, he should be able to sense that the room was empty when the demon guard opened the door, right?

By the way, I also gave Zhong Siqing a high hat.

Ahem... Then Mr. Li, tell me what to do? The impact of this matter is too bad, do you want to report it to His Highness the King of Qin?

Zhong Siqing couldn't help but blush.

His cultivation level is mediocre and he has not entered Confucianism or Taoism [Fourth Level of True Artistic Realm], so he cannot be as discerning as a martial artist. He was able to sit in his current position purely because of his qualifications...

Master Zhong is going to court tomorrow, right? This matter cannot be concealed. Master Zhong can just report it directly tomorrow.

Li Nuo pretended to say, Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Since it has been confirmed that Peng Wanli is not in the Waiyi Pavilion, it means that Hu Mubai did not lie. Let the case be closed. As for the rest, it is left to His Highness the King of Qin to decide. I’ll take the first step, Mr. Zhong, and go back early. Have a good dream.”

It's just a pity that Zhong Siqing was disturbed like this, how can he still think about sleeping after returning home.

Tomorrow, those censors and officials who would swarm up at the slightest smell of fishy smell will definitely read the book of him, the minister of Honglu Temple.

Knew it.

This is such a huge pit!

His mentality exploded, and he even had the urge to beg for his body and return to his hometown to take care of himself.

Otherwise, really take advantage of this moment to retreat bravely and give up your position to avoid losing your position later in the season?

Li Nuo asked his lieutenant to lead a group of Longxiang guards back to camp, while he headed west of the city.

Sir, I don't quite understand why you need to go to the Foreign Pavilion at all?

Lao Ma was beaten by Peng Wanli until he could no longer take care of himself. As one of the two generals of Hengha, Daheikui took on the responsibility of a personal soldier and protected Li Nuo.

It's not unnecessary. This trip has solid evidence that Peng Wanli was not at the Waiyi Pavilion at night.

Li Nuo explained briefly.

How do you know, Sir, that Peng Wanli is not in the Foreign Pavilion tonight?

Daheikui asked again.

Hu Xuan, the deputy envoy of the demon clan, said it. He said that Peng Wanli would not eat the food we arranged. As a great demon general, he must keep enough food every day, so he would go out to capture beasts in the dead of night. Kind for food.”

Li Nuo smiled.

Daheikui suddenly realized: Sir, you are really smart!

Okay, you just need to master the Leifeng Sunset I gave you, and don't pay attention to those brain-consuming things. Now, hurry up and go back home. There will probably be a lot of noise in the morning tomorrow. I want to recuperate. It’s just a matter of accumulating strength.”

Li Nuo said.

Everything is under control.

After a while, they returned to the house in the west of the city.

After passing through the front yard, Li Nuo tiptoed into the back room, only to find that there was no one in the room.

The lady is missing!

He reached out and touched the bed. The bedding and sheets were all cold!

This time, it was Li Nuo's turn to have his mentality explode...
