Chapter 1375: Chapter 65 Past EventsThe waiting moments made the time feel exceptionally long.
But fortunately, it finally passed.
When two porters, carrying a large iron-black box, arrived in front of Zheng Sheng Hall.
People knew that an hour had passed.
The two porters, full of spirit and energy, both skilled in the Ascending Dragon Realm. Carrying such a weighty box, yet not even panting.
Looking at their resolute demeanor, they were by no means of ordinary origin, likely elite personnel under Zhongxuan Sheng,
The evidence they “carried” up to Funing Mountain was naturally not simple.
“Oh? Your evidence has arrived?”
Zhang Weiyu’s expression was very calm now.
It was hard to guess his thoughts from his expression.
Zhongxuan Sheng didn’t even look at him, only said to Dugu Xiaodao, “Dugu pavilion chief, Sir Zhang said to speak with evidence, so go ahead and tell him!”
Dugu Xiaodao then stepped forward.
Under Zhang Weiyu’s gaze, she walked very steadily.
There was a large lock on the box, and Dugu Xiaodao took the key from one of the porters and unlocked it.
Then she opened the lid of the box.
From the iron-black box, she dragged out a man whose hands and feet were bound.
This was an ordinary-looking man.
No visible wounds on his body, but his eyes were dazed, his face expressionless. When dragged out of the box, he subconsciously lowered his eyes.
Although Dugu Xiaodao didn’t have high cultivation, it wasn’t too much effort for her to drag such a person. She grabbed him by the collar and dragged him into Zheng Sheng Hall.
This dragging was very similar to when Zhang Weiyu dragged Fan Qingqing before.
In this kind of progress, Dugu Xiaodao had an unprecedented feeling of controlling the fate of another person.
This made her steps even steadier.
Who is this person?
This was the most pressing question in the minds of people on Funing Mountain at that moment.
Crouched on the ground, Fan Qingqing was also a bit confused.
But she suddenly thought of a possibility, and her eyes suddenly shrank!
At this moment, Dugu Xiaodao spoke up, using a calm tone, she slowly said, “This Zheng Sheng Hall and the courtyard where the lord resides have always been cleaned by me alone. Every time I clean Zheng Sheng Hall, Sister Fan…”
It seemed she made a slip of the tongue, quickly correcting her words: “Fan Qingqing always accompanies me. Initially, I just thought she liked it here, liked this grand hall she supervised to build. Now I know, there was indeed such a reason. She was watching me, afraid I would discover her secret…”
Zhongxuan Sheng listened quietly, expressionless. Probably only he understood that Dugu Xiaodao had no feelings for Fan Qingqing. In fact, it was Dugu Xiaodao who discovered and told him about Fan Qingqing’s affair. What seemed like a heartfelt slip of the tongue was just an act of disguise from her.
However, he didn’t dislike this kind of scheming.
Although he was of noble birth, he wasn’t born with everything. He especially understood that ordinary people must always pay some price to move forward, to give up something.
And Dugu Xiaodao continued to narrate: “I found out about this person a month ago. Every time he came to Green sheep town, he always did some things regularly. I thought he had a problem, but I didn’t know his purpose, and I was also afraid of alerting him. Until after the lord’s incident, I then thought of this matter and told Mr. Zhongxuan.
Mr. Zhongxuan arrested and interrogated him and only then found out that he was specifically collecting intelligence for Diao Hai Building.
He did not know Fan Qingqing, nor did Fan Qingqing know him. The two never met. They only completed intelligence exchanges in designated places. That is here. Funing Mountain, Zheng Sheng Hall.”
Fan Qingqing gave Dugu Xiaodao a profound look.
She always thought this was just a simply loyal and naive little girl.
But now she realized she never truly understood this seemingly considerate and obedient Dugu Xiaodao.
She and Dugu Xiaodao were almost in each other’s company day and night, yet never detected any strangeness in Dugu Xiaodao.
These days she had been persuading Dugu Xiaodao to leave Qi Country with her, and Dugu Xiaodao’s firm refusal made her feel even more trustworthy in this child.
She considered herself an experienced senior, while teaching Dugu Xiaodao Dao Techniques, she also kindly taught her how to deal with this complex world. Yet today, she was ruthlessly taught a lesson by the other party!
Dugu Xiaodao always knew she was sending intelligence to Diao Hai Building, yet acted so oblivious and harmless in front of her!
And Zhongxuan Sheng, the one she dared not even glance at…
She finally understood why he neither won her over nor anticipated her slandering. Because with this witness in hand, her slandering was more likely to certify Jiang Wang’s innocence than her actual words! Moreover, Zhongxuan Sheng could completely use her slandering to drag Zhang Weiyu along to hell.
Such talent and ruthlessness!
“So…” At this point, Zhang Weiyu also saw many things clearly. He looked at Zhongxuan Sheng: “The false information from Equality Country was still just a blindness spell. This is your trap?”
“What do you mean by ‘trap’? I don’t understand.” Zhongxuan Sheng shook his head: “I just found out about this matter, didn’t expect you also happened to know, and didn’t expect you even misunderstood! Sir Zhang, why do you have such a big prejudice against Jiang Wang?”
He seemed genuinely puzzled: “Because of jealousy? Because of interests?”
“I have no prejudice against Jiang Wang. I am merely acting on clues and judging based on evidence.” Zhang Weiyu forced himself to calm down, he said earnestly: “Sometimes I may be wrong, due to my lack of ability, rather than subjective bias. In fact, I personally admire Jiang Qingyang very much!”
