The saint's carriage happened to stop near a fork in the road.

Wei Xu didn't meet her face to face, but turned a corner and rushed away from another road.

In order to save Cheng Qingxue, the saint stayed up all night and spent a lot of vitality, and her whole body was a little listless.

So he didn't pay attention to Wei Xu.

And when Chief Lu went to the place where the fight was held to inquire about it, she found out that the envoy of Da Zhou had arrived.

Just at the gate of the palace, the married princess was kidnapped.

She suddenly realized that it might be the person who rode the horse just now.

It's a pity that the opponent has gone far, and he can't catch up with him.

On the other side, Xie Jinnian looked at Changshi Lu's back as he went away, thinking of the phrase "saint" in the other party's mouth, and suddenly remembered where the feeling of deja vu came from.

Wasn't the person who snatched away Da Zhou and the pro-princess Wei Xu who had been missing for many days?

In southern Xinjiang, there are only a handful of people who have seen Wei Xu's true face. Apart from the saint and her confidants, there are only the king of Nanjiang and his confidantes.

Xie Jinnian was one of them.

He glanced nonchalantly at Da Zhou Honglu Siqing who was walking towards him out of breath.

When the other party walked halfway, a guard of Da Zhou came forward and whispered something in his ear.

The face of Honglu Siqing changed: "Are you sure you read it right?"

The guard hesitated for a moment, then said rigorously: "Not sure, that person's movement is too fast, and there is still some flour on his face, the small one didn't see it clearly, but he felt a little like General Wei Xu."

"ah……"

Honglu Siqing fell into deep thought.

If it was Wei Xu, why did he take Princess Hui'an away?

He also wounded so many guards of Da Zhou.

It's not like what he would do.

Wei Ting once announced the news that Wei Xu was captured by people from southern Xinjiang in the Golden Luan Hall. Although it was not widely publicized among the people, the Minister of Honglu Temple, who was the official of the imperial court, knew about it.

"So Wei Xu is still alive... No, it's still not certain that that person is Wei Xu."

"Master Wang."

Xie Jinnian walked over.

The five tigers had already fallen back onto his shoulders, obediently crouching still.

The Minister of Honglu Temple has just arrived in the capital, and has not met Xie Jinnian face to face.

Xie Jinnian deduced his identity based on his official uniform.

Xie Jinnian was dressed as a servant, but he had a handsome appearance, a slender figure, and an impressive demeanor.

The minister of Honglu Temple was thinking about who the other party was, when a member of the Imperial Forest Army from southern Xinjiang greeted Xie Jinnian: "Eunuch Jin."

Xie Jinnian nodded.

The Minister of Honglu Temple did his homework when he came to Southern Xinjiang. He was collecting information on the officialdom in Southern Xinjiang along the way, including the four major families and eight major tribes, as well as the celebrities around the King of Southern Xinjiang.

The minister of Honglu Temple cupped his hands: "It turns out to be Eunuch Jin."

Xie Jinnian bowed his hands and saluted: "Master Wang, you are welcome. What happened today is our fault. I will report it to His Majesty. I believe that His Majesty will dispatch elites to rescue the princess of Dazhou as soon as possible."

The minister of Honglu Temple said worriedly: "I'm sorry."

Suddenly, the bodyguard of Da Zhou came over again and whispered a word to Honglu Siqing.

The Minister of Honglu Temple gave Xie Jinnian a strange look: "My subordinates heard that the person testified that the saint was the mastermind behind the scenes. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

Xie Jinnian said calmly, "That person did say that. Whether it's a false accusation or the truth, I will give Da Zhou an explanation after verification."

...

Two quarters of an hour later, in a side hall of the Nanjiang Palace, the saint had an audience with the Nanjiang King.

Wang Ping of Nanjiang retreated the palace servants and guards, leaving only Xie Jinnian present.

Regarding the incident, Xie Jinnian reported the Southern Border King verbatim, including Wei Xu's accusations against the saint.

If it were someone else, they might not have the confidence to accuse the saint, and even if they did, they would have to weigh their tone or polish it a bit—maybe they heard it wrong.

Xie Jinnian no.

He sees what he says.

Even the matter of Wei Xu slipping away under the nose of the saint was also explained.

The king of Nanjiang sat on the seat shrouded in twilight, and asked the saint in a deep voice, "What do you have to say?"

The saint has a headache.

Why are you worrying so much recently?

There was a scandal in the family, and it was a scapegoat when he entered the palace——

The saint frowned and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't know that person was Wei Xu."

The King of Nanjiang said sternly: "He walked past your carriage, how dare you say you didn't see him?"

The saint said: "I haven't recovered from my injuries. I stayed up all night. I closed my eyes and rested in the carriage. I didn't pay attention."

This is the truth.

If she knew that that person was Wei Xu, and had already controlled him, how could she let him slip away?

The king of Nanjiang's sharp eyes fell on the face of the saint, as if he was judging the truth of her words.

Xie Jinnian didn't say a word.

When it's time to speak, he doesn't hesitate.

When he shouldn't talk too much, he will never say anything.

The king of Nanjiang said lightly: "Didn't you say that Wei Xu has lost his speech?"

After taking drugs, the puppets in the Temple of the Holy Maiden will gradually lose the emotion and speech ability of normal people, until finally they become a walking dead.

This process can be as short as half a year, and the longest will not exceed two years.

But Wei Xu has been taking medicine for five years, and he can still speak——

The king of Nanjiang asked questioningly: "You really have no reservations about Wei Xu?"

The saint replied calmly: "I assure you, I treat Wei Xu the same as I treat other puppets, but you know Wei Xu's situation, and his strength is beyond human reach."

The King of Nanjiang said in a deep voice: "So, you can't even control your own puppet?"

The saint said: "No. My flute sound is effective for Wei Xu. If the jade-faced Raksha hadn't come out to disturb the situation last time, I would have recalled Wei Xu. Wei Xu has no medicine, and he suffers from backlash and torture every day. It won't last long, and sooner or later he will take the initiative to come to me."

The king of Nanjiang said without anger and prestige: "I don't want to hear such things for the third time."

The saint said solemnly: "There won't be a third time, next time I will definitely bring Wei Xu to His Majesty in person."

The King of Nanjiang reminded: "Wei Xu is very dangerous. If he has not lost his speech, he probably has not lost all his memories. If he remembers who he is and joins up with the officials of the Great Zhou, you will have no clue if you want to touch him again." .”

The saint paused: "I understand, I will quickly recall him, so that he will never appear in front of the officials of the Great Zhou."

The King of Southern Border waved his hand.

The saint resigned.

Only the King of Nanjiang and Xie Jinnian were left in the hall.

The king of Nanjiang asked, "Jinnian, what do you think?"

Xie Jinnian truthfully stated what he thought in his heart: "The saintess should not instigate Wei Xu to rob Princess Da Zhou, but what happened today has indeed proved that Wei Xu is different from other puppets. In one matter, I have reservations about His Majesty."

The face of the King of Southern Border was shrouded in darkness, making it difficult for people to see his expression clearly.

He just stroked the armrest of the seat lightly, without saying a word.

...

But Wei Xu came and went, and no one knew what he was doing.

Since the scope of activities has expanded, the three ghost brothers want to watch him, but who can stand it?

Night fell.

Su Xuan returned to the room, looking at the Rakshasa sword on the table.

He reached out, hesitating whether to take it or not.

Suddenly, the door was kicked open.

A long leg froze in mid-air, maintaining the posture of kicking the door.

Su Xuan frowned, immediately entered a state of alert, and turned around with tremendous internal force.

Wei Xu stopped at the door.

Take back the leg that kicked the door.

Yue Mo realized that it was wrong for him to kick the door, he rolled his eyes guiltily, and grabbed a person from behind him.

Lifting her shoulders, she gently put the person into the threshold, and grinned at Su Xuan.

As if to say.

I found it, here you are.
