Chapter 576: Interrogation Of Trio

Upon entering the room, Qin Feng was stunned.

He thought there would only be Jianli in the room, but in fact, there were three of them!

They all looked at him, their eyes scrutinizing.

“Why are you all here?” Qin Feng asked curiously.

Lan Ningshuang was on one side of the door. She glanced at the green orange in Qin Feng’s hand. She smiled faintly, then stepped forward and said, “Of course, there are things to discuss with the Young Master. Young Master, don’t just stand at the door, come in quickly.”

As she pushed Qin Feng into the room and closed the door behind him, her smile faded and was replaced by a cold look in her eyes.

As Qin Feng approached the room, he suddenly realised that the three of them seemed to be surrounding him, reminiscent of the familiar feeling of being interrogated by the three of them.

That’s right, the last time they found out Anya’s identity, it was also like this!

“Hmm?” Qin Feng reacted, swallowing hard as a sense of crisis surged through him.

“No need, I’ll just stand. I have to practice later,” Qin Feng chuckled nervously.

“Sit down.” Liu Jianli, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke and Qin Feng felt a strong force pushing him down onto the chair!

The woman’s control over Vigor Qi had become even more refined… Qin Feng felt both relieved and frightened.

Right now, he felt like a defendant awaiting trial, weak, pitiful, and helpless.

“Tell me, what’s that smell on you?” Cang Feilan asked directly.

“Didn’t I tell you before that on the way back, I tasted a green orange and the juice accidentally splashed on my body because it was too sour. After I finish my cultivation, I’ll change my clothes.” Qin Feng replied quietly.

“Miss, Miss Cang, it seems like Young Master still doesn’t want to tell the truth,” Lan Ningshuang frowned.

“Ningshuang, what do you mean by that? Everything I said is true!”

“Then where did the smell of rouge come from?” Cang Feilan sneered, “Don’t you dare say it came from us.”

As a member of the Dragon Clan, her sense of smell was naturally different from that of ordinary people. Even though the scent of rouge was faint under the green-orange fragrance, it couldn’t escape her nose!

Lan Ningshuang bluntly added, “I thought only those playboys who hang out in brothels would resort to such tactics to cover up the scent of rouge. I didn’t expect Young Master to be one of them!”

“Isn’t it enough to have Miss and Miss Cang at the mansion? Why go to such places?”

“If Young Master can’t control himself, even I…”

Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan looked over, Lan Ningshuang cleared her throat and changed the subject, “Young Master, you’d better come clean. Where did you go, and did you do anything to offend Miss and Miss Cang?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng froze in place.

He finally realised why everyone was looking at him strangely as soon as he entered the hall, why the three of them were pressuring him, it was all a misunderstanding!

Wait, it wasn’t just a misunderstanding, there was actually a smell of rouge on him!

In the palace, when he was teaching Princess Taiping the Three Thousand Qi Observation Technique, their palms touched, and the smell of rouge on his body must have been from that time.

It’s bad!

Qin Feng’s palms were sweating as he looked at the three of them with serious eyes, hastily explaining the source of the rouge scent.

“Emperor Ming’s ordered you to guide Princess Anya in her practice?”

At his words, the three exchanged doubtful glances.

“If you don’t believe me, I can bring her here and explain it to you face to face!” Qin Feng insisted firmly.

“If that’s the case, why did Young Master use bitter orange juice to mask the smell, isn’t that suspicious?” Lan Ningshuang asked again.

Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan turned around, also waiting for an answer.

Qin Feng’s face stiffened and he finally sighed.

Since things had come to this, the only way he could prove his innocence was to truthfully tell them about the crisis he encountered on his way back.

After listening to him, the expressions on the faces of the three changed.

Liu Jianli’s gaze turned cold, like a pool of autumn water.

Cang Feilan’s brows furrowed.

Lan Ningshuang wore a worried expression. “Young master, are you okay?”

Qin Feng waved his hand. “The strength of those assassins was incomparable to your two skills. They were never my match.” 

“I had hoped to take one of them alive to interrogate and find out who was behind this. But these assassins were obviously fanatics, and knowing they couldn’t escape, they chose to poison themselves.” 

“However, I’m not entirely without clues. Tomorrow I will visit the Demon Slaying Department and inform Chief Deng of the situation. I believe we can find some clues.”

Seeing that the three of them were still worried about him, Qin Feng reassured them, “Don’t worry, with my current strength, even if I encounter a third-level expert, I might not win, but I can certainly protect myself.”

…

The dark room of Physician Chen’s mansion was completely dark, with no candles lit.

With a creak.

A middle-aged man pushed open the door and entered the room.

After the wooden door closed behind him, a voice sounded in the darkness, “Who asked you to deal with Qin Feng?”

The man coldly replied, “My brother died at his hands, so of course I want revenge.”

“Fortunately, he is not dead, otherwise you would have ruined the plan!”

“Not dead?” The man stood up, his forehead furrowed.

The assassins sent were five Divine Martial Warriors, none of them were weak, with one even at the peak of the fourth rank.

With such strength, combined with the help of the Blood Moon Diagram, it should have been impossible for Qin Feng to escape!

“The Blood Moon Diagram was destroyed, and none of the assassins you sent out returned alive.”

“To be able to gain fame in the Imperial City and provoke the Heavenly Tribulation at the fourth rank, he’s certainly not an ordinary Literature Saint. Otherwise, the young master wouldn’t have been interested in him.“

“You acted on your own this time, and I can overlook it, but don’t cause trouble again. Otherwise, the young master won’t let you go, even if I don’t kill you.

The man gritted his teeth, “So my brother’s death is for nothing?”

“Qin Feng has already posed a threat to the young master, so of course he won’t be spared.” 

“The young master has had a plan for a long time, not only to eliminate Qin Feng, but even to destroy the Qin family. You just have to wait patiently for orders.”

“Is that true?” The man’s eyes lit up.

“The young master plans everything, and when has he ever been wrong? “

“When the Great Qian falls into chaos, the young master will have great power.” 

“What you need to do now is find all the physicians who can treat Deng Mo, and then find a way to send those old men on their way!”

The man smiled confidently, “Why do you think I came back so late tonight?”

…

In the study, Eunuch Li returned from his outing.

Emperor Ming asked, “How did the National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower react? Can that boy’s Literature Treasure be replicated and widely used?”

Eunuch Li smiled and replied, “Your Majesty, please rest assured. The National Teacher gave a positive answer.” 

“However, the National Teacher also mentioned that there are too few Literature Saints above the Fifth Level in the Great Qian, and to use the Literature Treasure, one must reach the Fifth Level Magnificent Virtue Realm.” 

“If my Imperial Examination System becomes popular throughout the land, why do we have to worry about such things?” Emperor Ming’s face lit up with joy, then he extended his palm and said, “Bring it here.”

Eunuch Li asked curiously, “Your Majesty, what do you mean?”

“I told you to bring me the boy’s Literature Treasure!” Emperor Ming’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

“But Your Majesty, isn’t the Literature Treasure meant for replication? It should of course remain with the National Teacher in the Heavenly Tower. That’s what the National Teacher told me,” Eunuch Li replied, looking confused.

Emperor Ming paused, muttering ‘old fox’ under his breath. Of course, he understood that the Song of the Great Wind had been greedily taken by the National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower…

At that moment, the head of the prison department, Bing Mian, appeared out of nowhere in the study room, bowing and reporting, “Reporting to your majesty, Imperial Physician Qian died in the palace just a while ago. The cause of death was a sudden wind stroke.”

Emperor Ming’s expression immediately darkened.
