Within the city of Linzi, horrifying news spread throughout the city at an alarming rate.

On every street corner, in every tavern and teahouse, sounds fill the air.

Have you heard Back when Minister Zhao Xuan was attacked at Xiǎolían Bridge, those damned assassins who came from the underworld were sheltered into the city by Qingyangzi! And after the incident, he helped them escape!

"What No way"

"Didn't you hear Su She, the leader of the Ju Bao Business Association, was just outside the city when he happened upon their conspiracy. He ended up being killed on the spot! The ones who did it were Qin Guangwang, the king of Hell's Gate, and Wang the coroner. They also silenced the coachman from Bao Shi Carriage Company!"

"That's not right. It wasn't Su She, driven to desperation, who bought information about Bao Shi's carriage and ambushed Qing Yangzi on the official road, only to be killed by Jiang Wang, Chong Xuan Sheng, and Chong Xuan Sheng's personal guard"

“Do you really believe that At the time, Jiang Wang's inner court wasn't even established, let alone Chong Xuan! What could they possibly use to kill Su Xie”

"Wasn't it said that the Slaughterer was secretly suppressing things"

“When Chongxuan Sheng and Xiong Tu left the city, Su Shea was actually already dead!”

"That family of the Chong Xuan..."

"Hey. Can't say, can't say..."

“Do you know, our nation’s pride, is actually a spy from the Equal Kingdom They relied on acting in accordance with the master's grace and playing double games with Cui Zhu to gain the emperor's trust. In fact, he has only been in Qi for a few years, who would have the qualifications to represent Qi in the competition”

"Don't talk nonsense, he is the leader of the Yellow River, the pride of our Qi people!"

What a load of crap, you're proud You deserve to be sold and you're still helping count the money! Do you even know about the weeping shrine case"

"What nonsense! This is taboo!"

"Hmph, when the Cry-Shrine incident happened, besides Zhang Yong, only Jiang Wang was present. You tell me, why is Jiang Wang always involved whenever Pingdeng Guo does something"

Perhaps it's just a coincidence...

>

"Ha! Coincidence! Then his protection of the Yang Kingdom royal family remnants this time, killing the head of Zhaoheng City's constabulary and his entire family, is that also a coincidence His standing up for the Yang Kingdom royal family remnants, inciting General Cao Jie to punish Huang Yixing, stirring up a conflict between the new Qi people and old Qi people, could that be a coincidence too"

Isn't this case still under investigation

"Let me tell you a secret, don't tell anyone else. My brother-in-law works at the city patrol office. The evidence in this case is conclusive; there's really nothing to investigate! They're just being cautious because Jiang Wanggang recently won first place in the Yellow River examination and received a heavy reward from the Emperor. For the sake of face, they're temporarily suppressing the matter. Just wait a few years for the news to die down, then we'll see what happens."

“I still don’t believe it, Jiang Wang is the best in the world, with a bright future ahead. What good could there be in becoming a spy for the Equal Nation”

"What people want is ideals, not prospects! It's just that their ideals are rather extreme. Let me tell you, Jiang Wang has already fled abroad. See if he can even come back"

Such rumors, in a very short time, have caused an uproar throughout the city!

After all, he was still a hero celebrated throughout the nation just recently. Qi State had no one who didn't know Jiang Qingyang. Therefore, the controversies surrounding him spread with even greater fervor.

A luxurious carriage, slowly passing by the teahouse, carried snippets of conversation on the wind. Li Fengyao, her frost-like brows slightly raised, said: "I said I would come back and see his splendor, how did it suddenly turn out like this"

Li Longchuan, sitting opposite him, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't know either. It was too sudden. A few days ago, we were still drinking together, and everything was normal then. This time, he just went to check a case in Hengcheng. Unexpectedly, when he was investigating, the person disappeared. In a blink of an eye, a pile of cases piled up on his head!"

Where is he now

"I don't know, I can't get in touch right now. There's no news from Chongxuan Sheng's side either."

Here's the translation:

“To leave Qi at this juncture is most unwise,” said Li Fengyao.

"Who said it wasn't" Li Longchuan frowned.

Li Fengyao thought for a moment and said, "Jiang Wang is not a fool. The reason he made such a foolish choice is only one explanation - he left the state of Qi not willingly."

"He was on a mission to apprehend someone…" Li Longchuan paused, then asked, “Are you saying the two deputy commanders who accompanied him are involved Three Rank Qingpai Li Youyou and Capture God Yue Leng. They're both renowned Shenlin Commanders who have spent most of their lives fighting within the Qingpai system.”

"I'm sure they would have alerted the city patrol if they had any issues." Li Fengyao glanced at his younger brother. "You seem to be troubled by something"

Lee Longchuan pursed his lips and finally said: "Let's not talk about other things. But the matter of Jiang Wang bringing the gates of hell into the city... seems to be true."

Li Fengyao's chin was slightly raised, her long neck white and dazzling, with a cold and proud arc.

"How do you say that" she asked.

“The matter of King Qin Guang teaming up with the official Wang to kill Su Xie aligns perfectly in terms of time and place, and the details are very much in line. Furthermore, when the Inspectorate investigated the assassination attempt on Xiao Lian Bridge at the time, one of Chong Xuan Zun’s subordinates was caught up in it, although he was ultimately proven innocent. But as you know, that was during the intense power struggle between Chong Xuan Sheng and Wang Yi Wu.”

Li Longchuan said slowly, "Besides, Jiang Wang and Yin Guan... did indeed know each other before coming to Qi. This can be found out with a check in Youguo."

"If this is true, I would like to ask," said Li Fengyao. "At the time, only King Qin Guang, Officer Wang, Jiang Wang, and Su She were present. Since the first three were in cahoots, and Su She is already dead, then who spread the word about this"

"In that case... there are still some doubts about this matter."

"How is it made at home" asked Li Fengyao.

"Father went to the Censorate himself and put pressure on them, demanding a fair investigation. My uncle, being influential at the Dong Hua Pavilion, could also make things happen." Li Longchuan said: "No matter what, this is between friends. I won't let anyone wrongly accuse him."

Li Fengyao pulled open the car curtain and glanced at the blazing sun in the sky, only to say, "It's going to rain!"

The city patrol office.

A secret room.

This is a test.

The morning court officer Xie Huai'an sat at the head, looking at the man opposite him: "Yue Captain, do you have anything to say"

Yue Leng, with both hands resting on his knees, sat upright and said seriously, "Li You has a problem!"

At almost the same time, in another secret room, almost identical words were spoken.

However, the speaker had changed to Li Yougui, and asking the questions was Beiya Dutou Zheng Shi.

"Yue Leng has a problem!"

Li Youjiu faced Zheng Shi with a agitated tone: "If he had nothing to hide, why would he suddenly join our pursuit Our Qingpai case handling has procedures. Although his status is special, he can be more flexible, but he shouldn't be so reckless! The pursuit was originally a sure thing, but in the end, the other party anticipated us and used a diversion tactic, causing Captain Jiang to disappear as well!"

>

Zheng Shi looked at him, slowly and deliberately said: "Can I understand this way, Captain Li doesn't think Jiang Wang is problematic"

"As for the rumors going around outside, I think they are utter nonsense!" Li Yougui said: "Although I don't have much contact with Captain Jiang, I also know that he is a good man. More importantly, his future in our Great Qi is limitless. He would not have a better development anywhere else. It must be that his head is filled with water to do such things!"

“But according to the family in Hengcheng who was completely wiped out...” Zheng Shi said, “the sword style at the scene was indeed Jiang Wang's.”

Li Youjiao decisively said, “That’s too easy to imitate, not enough evidence! Yue Leng calling himself the God Catcher and intentionally setting up the scene, who could see through it”

“What do you think” Zheng Shiwen asked, “What is Yue Leng’s motive”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I don't know about that." Li Youjiu's eyes flashed with a sharp glint: "Perhaps it's for the resources of the Dongzhen Realm, or perhaps there's another reason. Perhaps... the Equal Nation If possible, I suggest directly searching their souls!"

Zheng Shi lowered his head and flipped through the file without speaking.

This suggestion is utterly impossible. With Yue Leng's status and position, even if there were conclusive evidence against him now, to search Yue Leng's soul would require the emperor's approval.

For practitioners, being searched for the soul is the greatest shame, a lifelong secret laid bare with no dignity to speak of. Nine out of ten souls searched will have their hearts shattered.

Furthermore, during the soul-searching process, the slightest carelessness could lead to the destruction of one's spirit and soul.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

To abruptly search Yue Leng's soul would inevitably cause widespread fear among the court and officials. Based on the same reasoning, Beiya wouldn't use such methods against Li Yougui either.

Zheng Shi was just not expecting that Li Youjiu would actually have such a deep conflict with Yue Leng. He didn't know when this started

“Is there something wrong with Li Youjiu” Xie Huai’an asked from the other room.

Yue Leng said, "First of all, although the intelligence about Yang's remnants entered the secret mansion through official channels and Li Youjiu was indeed on duty that day, his actions were too decisive! The secret mansion has so much information every day, and there are so many things to check in the inspection department, but he didn't waste a moment and went straight to Hengyang County! I have every reason to suspect that he was prepared beforehand and was just waiting for such an opportunity."

Furthermore, as soon as he arrived in Hengyang County, he demanded to close the case and proactively took Jiang Wang out of the country. When I pursued him, it was under his reckless command that we split into two pursuit paths, which ultimately led to Jiang Wang's disappearance! He alone possesses the intelligence, he orchestrated the operation, and now that something has gone wrong, to say he bears no responsibility is simply unacceptable.

Xie Huai'an thought for a moment, then asked, "Do you think Jiang Wang is fleeing out of fear or did something happen to him"

"I can't say for sure."

Yue Leng pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Now that I think about it, there are indeed many suspicious points about this Jiang Wang... But if Jiang Wang has a problem, Li Youjiu must be an accomplice."

We all know that with Jiang Wang's current reputation, the expert stationed at the Guoguo Grand Formation would definitely be paying attention to his safety. The only way to leave the country on a mission under the Qing Pai banner and have such an esteemed cultivator by our side is to avoid scrutiny.

>

For the same reason, Jiang Wang would be fine, but Li Yougui must have a problem, because he knows that only by tricking Jiang Wang out of Qijing could he possibly harm him!

>

All in all, Xie Huai'an said calmly, "Regardless of how you look at it, Li Youjiu has a problem"

Yue Leng said bluntly, "That's right!"ken aback."Erdemchi" in the steppe language means "God's wisdom".Here is the translation of your text: And this name holds a more specific and crucial meaning in the kingdom of shepherds: it refers t...
