But since the demon has been destroyed, nothing should be done.

Feeling cold, Li Xianyuan turned around and returned to the room.

In the early morning, Li Xianyuan was still awakened. She frowned and went out, only to realize that things were far more serious than what she thought.

On this street, a third neighboring house was killed.

The families on this long street were frightened. They prepared their cars and horses to leave for a few days to avoid the limelight.

Li's mansion ranks sixth. If he continues to die like this, it will be his turn in less than three days.

Li Xianyuan was wearing a blue shirt and wearing a cloak, standing in front of the red door, crossing the spiritual sword and the bamboo roll behind her back, looking at the carriages and horses parked in front of the door of the neighbors, loading and unloading their luggage.

"Master, according to my old slave..." The butler Wen next to him spoke.

"It's time to move away." Li Xianyuan interrupted him.

Manager Wen was slightly stunned: "Is this... something wrong?"

Li Xianyuan withdrew her gaze and looked at the old man calmly: "I'm more afraid of death."

Mr. Wen is dedicated to his work: "But if you leave like this, it may be unfavorable to your reputation..."

"It's just a false reputation. You will take the key and send it to King Cheng. Thank you for your kindness for me. I'm looking for another place to live."

After explaining, Li Xianyuan actually left.

The incident happened suddenly, butler Wen was stunned and came back to his senses when Li Xianyuan disappeared in the misty snow scene.

He couldn't believe it. Who would have thought that this master would leave the house given to King Cheng, and would come and leave as soon as he said he would.

...

On the street, shouts crossed the white and green walls.

Although the green wall is high, it cannot stop a locust tree planted outside the wall. A small branch penetrates into the yard, and you can see the lush green scenery of midsummer.

The courtyard is not big, with a wooden shed in the corner. The ground is three feet long, but the gate of the courtyard swept out a path from the front door.

No matter how you look at it, they are all ordinary families in Xinjing.

In this ordinary family, there is a sixth-rank marquis, a current emperor, the second son of King Cheng, and two young people are sitting at the wine table.

"I thought you would find it later." King Cheng, dressed in a civilian dress, spoke.

"I discovered it a long time ago, let alone you reminded me before. I just didn't know anything about it, and they couldn't find out anything here. The case in the past few days is considered an introduction, and it is also an excuse."

"I'm really brave. Butler Wen was caught off guard by you and was probably upset."

"What courage?" Li Xianyuan's expression was plain: "It's just about doing whatever he wants."

"This is called courage." King Cheng picked up the wine glass and exclaimed, tilting his head to drink. "I think my father will not put anyone around you for the time being."

When the empty wine glass fell on the table, King Cheng turned to ask, "You said, is this case of Beihe really done by that demon?"

"It's not what I did, how do I know."

When Li Xianyuan choked, King Cheng coughed repeatedly and asked others: "How is the place you are looking for?"

"I want it very much."

He laughed softly and said, "It's just a cheap life."

His eyes crossed the window and looked at the courtyard: "The place is small, and I feel peaceful."

"Why don't you go to my mansion to stay for a few days?"

"Xie Jingtong is kind to you, this matter is spared. You may have more eyeliners in your house than mine," Li Xianyuan said in a plain manner, and it seemed like she was gloating no matter how she heard it.

"That's true." King Cheng laughed and was annoyed. "I won't say this."

After three rounds of wine, five dishes were served. King Cheng, who was usually calm and handsome, brought a hint of drunkenness: "My servant told me that you were investigating the burning of Situ's mansion seven years ago."

"It is the matter of being entrusted by someone to be loyal to someone."

King Cheng said lightly, he would behave naturally when he was with Li Xianyuan, unlike the noble prince.

"That's hard to deal with."

The tea cup Li Xianyuan picked up was stagnant: "Jing Tong is related to this?"

"How is it possible? I was as big as you seven years ago." King Cheng sneered and pondered for a moment: " Regarding this case, the Ministry of Justice made an explanation: Situ Shangshu's corruption incident occurred, and the autumn asked to behead him. He was retaliated against by the people he had wronged during his lifetime and burned the Situ Mansion."

After drinking a sip of hot tea, Li Xianyuan said, "Do you believe it?"

"It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not, what matters is that you don't."

"Then let me put it another way. Shangshu, the chief official of the Sixth Ministry, and the third-rank official of the current dynasty, was second only to the prime minister. He was arrested when he said he was arrested?"

Li Xianyuan said nothing.

"According to our Da Shang Law, any official above the fifth rank of officials who violate the law must be detained in a death row for interrogation, and those with conclusive evidence will be exiled to the edge. As for the death penalty," King Cheng paused slightly, his tone was somewhat amusing: "Taizu was in power for thousands of years, and there were very few people who were sentenced to death, and most of them were traitors and evil people. The crime of corruption was solemnly killed by the six ministers?"

Li Xianyuan doesn't say anything.

"Shi Tu's charge was corruption, and the autumn queen asked to behead him. At that time, the eighth day of the seventh month of Yichou. The autumn queen refers to the fourth day of the eighth month of the autumn equinox. In July, he was imprisoned to the death prison and was beheaded in August. Less than a month apart, don't you think the beheading is a bit faster?"

Li Xianyuan was silent.

"If the Da Shang died, his family will inevitably be implicated. The mildest ones are raided and exiled, and the severe ones are sacked and executed. But after the death of the Shangshu, his family still stayed in the Shangshu's mansion. Aren't you surprised this?"

Li Xianyuan has no sound.

"Situ Mansion is located in Huangenfang. On the left is the Minister of Rites' Mansion, and on the right is the Prince of Qiannan. It is only a moat and river in the moat. Who can set fire there? And only one person from Situ Mansion escapes?"

"If--just if. There is such an existence, with great power. Even the Prime Minister of the current dynasty can be easily executed with just one word..."

"Your father." Li Xianyuan suddenly spoke.

"Cough cough cough cough cough..." King Cheng coughed repeatedly and couldn't speak.

It was better to grab the teapot and tilt it in, and breathe a sigh of relief: "Except my father... Bah! Except for my father."

"That means...a cultivator." Li Xianyuan's black eyes turned cold.

"I didn't say that, I just helped you think about it." Given that Li Xianyuan has always been like this, King Cheng did not see his emotional changes and was still persuading: "This case is deep, even if I throw it in, it may not be possible to splash a lot of waves."

Li Xianyuan stared at King Cheng with his eyes: "This matter is crucial to me."

“Is it so important?”

“It’s so important.”

After being stared at by Li Xianyuan, King Cheng sighed: "Okay, someone may know."

"Who is it?" Li Xianyuan poured a glass of wine and handed it to King Cheng.

Lu Dongbin didn't enjoy such treatment either.

King Cheng was a little flattered, and held it with both hands, but he didn't keep it in hiding: "There is a Laojun Temple in the east of the city. You may have some ideas there when you go there."

"You asked me to ask the Supreme Laojun?"

"Why don't you let me finish my words?" King Cheng pointed at Li Xianyuan and scolded. How could he have the usual etiquette?

"Since you want to investigate this matter, you should also know that a daughter of Situ Shangshu survived the fire. After that, the girl was adopted by a female Taoist priest of Laojunguan. Go and ask her, maybe she knows what she knows."

The female Taoist priest may refer to Liu Xianglian who adopted Situ Yanran.
