Chapter 4158: Unexpected Guest

A long sigh sounded.

Chu Yang also did not expect that Leng Mingyue was not only enemies on all sides in the dynasty, but also a solitary figure with few allies.

Judging from the situation, King Qi targeted Leng Mingyue because of the pain of losing his son, but Chu Yang would not simply believe that people in the royal family would take family ties so seriously.

It’s not that there aren’t such examples, but they are simply too rare.

The ministers were certainly not fools. They must have been secretly criticized by King Qi's behavior for a long time.

As for why no one placed business on King Qi, this matter really had nothing to do with him, or all the traces had been dealt with in secret long ago, making it impossible for anyone to grasp the clues.

No matter which one it is, it will be difficult to dispel Chu Yang's suspicion unless the real culprit is found.

"So now it seems that many people in the court are suspected, but in fact there is no definite clue at all, right?"

"That is indeed the case."

Chu Yang nodded, having a simple understanding of the current situation in the Zhou Dynasty, but if he wanted to investigate the truth, it would probably take a lot of effort and effort.

"So who do you think is the most suspicious person in the imperial court?"

Xu Zhongping narrowed his eyes and was silent for a moment.

"My thought is naturally that the Qi King and his gang are the most suspect, followed by the important officials in the court, and then the crown princes."

"Besides these, aren't there those monster clans in the north? After all, there is an inextricable hatred between them and the Zhou Dynasty."

Xu Zhongping slowly shook his head and denied Chu Yang's statement.

"It is indeed possible, but it is very difficult for those monsters to break into the human race or plant spies among the human race.

Unlike ordinary things, it would be easier and faster to start a war directly. The demon clan would not do such a thankless thing. "

"Furthermore, the Ministry of War has inquired about the news. The north is currently in turmoil, and I'm afraid they won't be able to spare the time and energy to do this."

Chu Yang remained silent and began to collect existing clues, trying to figure out a general direction and the person who was more likely to be suspected.

But after thinking about it, Chu Yang still had no idea where to start.

"I'm afraid today's conversation can only end here. I still have things to do, so I can't chat with you here. If you want, you can enjoy delicious food here and kill some time. I will come back to talk to you after I finish solving the trivial matters. Friends invite me, let me arrange it as you please.”

Chu Yang nodded, not dissatisfied with Xu Zhongping's arrangement. Chu Yang was also very curious about this place, but he had forgotten about it for the time being. Now that the conversation had come to an end, he could take a closer look at this place. And the owner here, Mei Niang.

Chu Yang was no less curious about Mei Niang than the turmoil in the Zhou Dynasty. She has a unique temperament that Chu Yang has never seen before.

It's not because Chu Yang was deceived by beauty, but Mei Niang and the people Chu Yang met along the way were different. The feeling of being alienated from the world but still in it made Chu Yang seem to see himself in her. .

After drinking all the tea in the cup, Chu Yang opened the antique wooden door and walked out of the room.

When he was about to go down to the first floor, Chu Yang happened to bump into Mei Niang who was walking up. Mei Niang nodded slightly and smiled, saying hello to him.

Right around the corner

The moment he passed her by, Chu Yang smelled the faint orchid fragrance from Mei Niang again. This fragrance made his thoughts pause for a moment, but then he returned to normal.

When Chu Yang walked to the lobby on the first floor, what he didn't expect was that there were only a few customers sitting in the lobby that was empty when he arrived.

Their temperaments are different, but what they all have in common is that they have strong cultivation.

When Chu Yang came down, one of the customers who was sitting in the corner and sipping tea raised his head and glanced at Chu Yang.

The eyes of the two people gathered and intersected in mid-air. The other person nodded towards Chu Yang as a greeting. Chu Yang felt an extremely sharp sword intent from the other person.

This man turned out to be a monk who practiced a different way.

Not only him, but only a few of the four guests on the first floor practiced corpse control, while the others all mastered one or more different ways. Such an incredible situation immediately made Chu Yang interested.

Chu Yang waited patiently in the hall for a moment, and then waited for Mei Niang who came down from the second floor.

"Mei Niang, wait a minute, I have something to ask Mei Niang."

Mei Niang smiled, her messy hair hanging by her ears swaying in the breeze in the hall.

"Guest, please tell me if you have anything to say. Whatever I know, I will never hide anything."

Chu Yang stared intently at Mei Niang's eyes, which were as deep and charming as kaleidoscopes, and then asked:

"Although I have enjoyed delicious food here, I still don't know what exactly this place is and who Mei Niang is. I wonder if you can explain it to me. When Mr. Xu brought me here,

But he didn't tell me that there are so many mysteries hidden here. "

Mei Niang covered her mouth with a handkerchief, smiled coyly, and her soft waist like a willow branch swayed slightly.

"If the guest just wants to ask me this kind of question, Mei Niang will naturally not hide it. The origin of this place is not a dirty secret."

"There are many sects in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the restaurant here is one of them."

A flash of surprise flashed deep in Chu Yang's eyes.

"I see, that Mei Niang is the master of this sect."

What surprised Chu was that after asking this question, Mei Niang shook her head at him, and then looked at a certain guest in the lobby on the first floor with a smile.

Such strange behavior immediately made Chu Yang realize that maybe the person she was looking at was the real owner of this place.

Seeing that the other party was in a daze while drinking tea, Chu Yang hesitated for a moment and walked over to the other party's position on the road.

After feeling the barrier blocking him, Chu Yang gently waved his arm to destroy the barrier and then sat down opposite the middle-aged Confucian cultivator.

"I didn't expect to see you here so often."

The Confucian cultivator raised his head and denied it calmly: "I think this friend must have recognized the wrong person. I am not the person you are looking for, and I have never met you before."

Chu Yang smiled lightly.

"Since your Excellency dares to take the initiative to show up, it means that you have already made preparations in your heart, so why bother to hide it at this time.

I think the reason why you came here, or let Xu Zhongping invite me here, is to meet me like this. I am right, Fellow Daoist Bai. "

That's right, the middle-aged man in front of Chu Yang Wuyang was the one who had been

I have met Bai Wangyou before.

Chu Yang was indeed surprised for a moment by the other party's appearance here, but then he returned to normal.
