Chapter 311: In Beiya

Ziqi Eastward Flowing Sword Technique rippled through the ordinary iron, causing this blade to cleave through the serpentine beast like a sharp knife cutting paper.The serpent's corpse split in two,...Ma Xiong's position within the prefecture was clearly lower than that of Yang, the deputy inspector.

So, it was he who took the initiative to get up and walk outside the room — naturally, one couldn't just casually enter a room where someone was "questioning" another.

“Please let her in.”

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

What was said outside remained unknown, only to hear Ma Xiong say something helplessly, and then walked in.

He glanced at the deputy inspector surnamed Yang, apparently conveying something through a silent transmission. The deputy inspector surnamed Yang also nodded slightly.

After a while, the mistress of Daqi Hua Ying Palace walked in.

Her figure, taller than most men, stepped into the room and naturally drew all eyes to her.

“Master of the Palace,” said Yang, the deputy inspector. “Please excuse my official duties, I cannot bow.”

Jiang Wuyou raised her hand: "No need for formalities. Isn't this an interrogation If so, this palace will step aside,"

"Of course not. Captain Jiang is not a criminal." said the Yang surnamed deputy inspector, "It's just routine questioning."

"Well then," Jiang Wuyou smiled. "This palace will listen."

After speaking, he ignored the reactions of Yang, the deputy inspector, and Ma Xiong. He glanced at himself, nonchalantly picked up a chair, and sat down on the side.

There wasn't any communication between me and Jiang Wang from beginning to end.

But everyone knows why she is here.

Jiang Wang was not surprised.

The chief inspector of the Capital Inspection Department is openly pursuing those under Jiang Wuqian's command. If Jiang Wuyou doesn't get any news, then this position, Huaying Palace truly has nothing to fight for.

Therefore, it was not surprising that she knew Jiang Wang had been brought back to the Inspectorate by Ma Xiong and rushed over quickly.

Ma Xiong coughed, just about to continue asking questions.

Tap tap tap.

Another knock sounded at the door.

Of course, one could not let Yang Xunjian go and inspect the situation, let alone allow Empress Hua Ying to visit.

Ma Xiong sighed inwardly, got up again, and went out.

By the time he returned, a stout figure had already followed him.

"I'm not disturbing you, am I" smiled Chong Xuan.

>

"Of course not." Yang, the deputy inspector, smiled faintly. "Master Chongxuan, please sit down at your leisure. We'll have a word with Captain Jiang first."

Zhong Xuanpang wasn't being polite either, but he looked around the room at the empty chairs and smiled: "It's fine, I got tired from sitting in the sedan chair just now. I'll stand for a while!"

Jiang Wuyou's arrival was understandable. Besides protecting Jiang Wang, he might also be concerned about how much Jiang Wuqi was involved in this matter and wanted to get firsthand information.

And Chong Xuan Sheng arrived...he probably smelled danger.

In fact, as soon as he heard the news that Jiang Wang was taken to the Inspector's Mansion, he immediately set off to come here.

At this time, Jiang Wang and the two questioners sat opposite each other across a long black table.

Jiang Wuyou sat calmly on the left side of the long black table.

Zhong Xuan Sheng stood on the right side of the long black table, smiling, just staring at Ma Xiong.

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

Ma Xiong couldn't help but glance back at him.

Zhong Xuan Sheng raised his hand and smiled, "Please continue. We will not interfere with you. Ask as you see fit."

Ma Xiong wore a look of helplessness.

You two, one is a palace master and the other a prominent family's heir, staring at me like two great guardians on either side... How should I ask

He swallowed hard, making a last-ditch effort, and whispered, “This matter is of great importance, Your Majesty has been paying attention to…”

Jiang Wuyou interrupted him and said, "If this palace finds it inconvenient to listen, then you may leave."

Ma Xiong certainly couldn't say that Hua Ying Palace Master was inconvenient to listen. Unless Jiang Wang did have some suspicion of collusion, or was being held here as a suspect and questioned for the crime.

Now, Jiang Wang is merely an observer of that incident. The reason he's here is to help them reconstruct the scene as it was at the time.

He held a position of authority and rank, and was soon to represent the State of Qi in the Yellow River Conference. Before any evidence surfaced, even the word "suspect" wouldn't dare be attached to him by Ma Xiong.

Looking back, when he was still in Bei County, Jiang Wang had to report to him before leaving. Until now...

Ma Xiong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The times have changed, and new heroes rise. The old heroes are fading."

He quickly straightened his posture, suppressing the fleeting thought of wanting to make a name for himself by solving a major case, and said earnestly, "Captain Jiang, please continue."

Jiang Wang's attitude remained consistent. He was not cowardly when facing them alone before, nor arrogant now that the Palace Master of Huaying and Chong Xuan Sheng were supporting him.

"Wen Ping still spoke in his gentle and calm manner: 'I paid respects to the Marquis of Jiubian. Then Zhang suddenly said to me, "Why are you so serious about paying respects You don't know him, and the current Fengxian Zhang family can't possibly benefit you..."

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

...then he said he couldn't do it, he couldn't respect anyone in the state of Qi.

I realized he wasn't the original Zhang Yong. As a Qingpai, I was prepared to capture him. After a few exchanges, he fell into a state of disintegration of flesh, blood, soul, and everything else. I retreated to the entrance of the Lingci Temple, and then Captain Ma arrived.

Ma Xiong pondered for a moment, then asked: "The same state as that Cui Zhu from the other day"

“Yeah, exactly the same.” Jiang Wang said, “Zhang Yong calls that state…’annihilation’.”

"Then how did you escape" Ma Xiong couldn't help but ask, "I heard that kind of state is terrifying, with immense killing power."

Jiang Wang said calmly, "Because I am very strong."

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

Ma Xiong: ...

The Palace Master of Huaying seemed to find it rather boring: “Is it something you still doubt, Captain Ma, about something the whole Linzi knows”

“Well, not really.” Ma Xiong paused for a moment. “But I still have some questions…”

>

The door was pushed open at this time.

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

Zheng Shi, the Imperial Inspector of the Capital City and concurrently the Inspector of the Capital City's Inspection Office, walked in.

He stood at the door and said in a soft voice, “Next, this official will ask questions personally. You may all go down first.”

Ma Xiong and the Yang surname patrol censor deputy did not say a word, they directly stood up and left the room. There was no objection whatsoever to why Hua Ying Palace Master and Chong Xuan Sheng were still present.

>

In Beiya, Zheng Shi was the ultimate authority.

Zheng Shi casually shut the door behind him, took a few steps, and sat down in the position where the Yang surname Inspector Deputy had been sitting before.

Though Jiang Wuyou sat still, his expression was noticeably more solemn.

Even Chongxuan's smile disappeared from his face.

The Northern Palace Commander Zheng Shi, was already a powerful figure in Linzi. Now, he was responsible for the case of Cui Zhu's assassination of the prince, and had been temporarily granted immense authority, even being able to move the night watchmen—an organization responsible for suppressing all evil within the State of Qi.

After Zheng Shi sat down, he looked at Jiang Wang for a while.

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

Looking at Jiang Wang, even she herself felt a little uneasy, wondering if there was something she didn't know that had been exposed.

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

Could that "Zhang Yong" really be related to me I've known Cui Zhu for a long time already, too

But Zheng Shi just asked, "Have you eaten"

Jiang Wang was taken aback for a moment before replying, "Uh, I had some snacks earlier and then went to the Temple of the Great."

Zheng Shi nodded and then asked, "How have you been sleeping these two days"

"I haven't slept, I'm practicing." Jiang Wang said honestly.

"Diligence is a good thing, but you shouldn't tighten the string too much. Sometimes you need to loosen it." Zheng Shiquan said aloud.

Jiang Wang nodded obediently: "Okay, I know."

"Alright. I'm finished asking questions," Zheng Shi stood up, "Go back and prepare well for the Yellow River Assembly."

Jiang Wang was stunned again.

But Zheng Shi just smiled and walked out of the room, saying nothing more.

That's quite obvious, isn't it
