Half fairy

Chapter 132
Pei Qingcheng nodded approvingly. Ashheng had already made the emperor furious. If his opponent was accused of killing the imperial court official, he would really have no way out.

The opponent couldn't say that he knew that Ash Heng pretended to be a government servant and followed Gao Zeyu away, but the opponent knew where the breakthrough point was, and knew that Zhongfu knew about it, so he would definitely pry Zhongfu's mouth away.

"Yes!"

Immediately someone was ordered to rush to Zhongfu.

But Ying Xiaotang and the others wandered around the gate of the city, puzzled by two things.

The first question was whether Ash Heng was in the carriage that guard Li Qi drove away.

The second is whether the people in the warehouse were killed by Ash Heng.

Soon, a veteran in the army surveyed the scene and reported, "Duke, the thirteen corpses inside all died from sword wounds. They should have died from the same hand. There should be unsmoothed gaps on the murderer's sword."

Ying Xiaotang and Pei Qingcheng looked at each other, if Ashheng really did it, would he have such a great ability to kill so many people quietly?Can he still hold the guard Li Qi and send him out of the city?

Because of these, Ying Xiaotang and others have reason to suspect that someone else may have been involved in this matter, and they don't know whether it is an enemy or a friend to Ashheng.

Not long after, Qingqi came galloping outside the city and reported urgently: "Duke, the carriage driven by the guard Li Qi has been stopped. Li Qi was cut off his neck and died in the car. There is no trace of the murderer. There is reason to believe that the murderer After passing Li Qi, they frightened the horses and continued to move forward to blind their eyes, while the murderer himself fled halfway. Li Qi's department checked the suspicious places along the way to determine the murderer's escape direction."

Kill another one?
Just killed a fifth-rank civil servant, and then killed a sixth-rank military general?
Ying Xiaotang and Pei Qingcheng's eyes met again, they felt that the incident was getting bigger and bigger, and found that the murderer was a little crazy.

The two of them knew that even if they were opponents, they didn't do anything to directly assassinate Ashheng in the capital, and they had to find a way to put a crime on Ashheng's head, and they had to kill him by name. So unscrupulous.

After waiting for too long, the carriage that took Li Qi out of the city returned and brought back Li Qi's body.

After the inspection by the veteran in the army, he whispered at Ying Xiaotang's side: "The murderer should be the same person."

It's not easy to speak loudly now, many court officials have already arrived.

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice with a dark face even brought a group of people from the Ministry of Justice to the scene for inspection.

Several court officials at the purple robe level came.

This is not a trivial matter. The fifth and sixth rank officials of the court were murdered in this way, and a bunch of yamen servants died. This is a blatant provocation to the Jin Kingdom court and touched the interests of the power structure, which is to offend the public anger of these people.

In order to protect their own interests, and to avoid the same thing from happening to them one day, these people must take heavy blows to deter them.

In short, this wind must not last long!
"drive!"

A group of fast horses from the Criminal Department galloped out of the city.

Under the order of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the most elite of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and can be said to be the most elite trace-finding and tracking masters in the entire Jin Kingdom, were dispatched in batches, as if they were trying their best to track down the murderer's escape.

This type of power is not comparable to any power in the rivers and lakes. It is comprehensive and professional.

Ying Xiaotang watched with a sullen face, and couldn't say anything.

He had kindly suggested just now that he send military personnel to assist in the arrest, but the other party, who seemed to be terrified, directly and forcefully refused.

The other party almost said that the people in the military are unreliable...

Outside the courtyard of the Zhongfu, there were about a hundred people guarding the front and back gates.

It was the people sent by Xuan Guogong who also reminded Zhong Su privately that Gao Zeyu must not admit that Gao Zeyu took Ashheng away, and told him the situation.

Knowing that someone directly killed Gao Zeyu, Zhong Su was also terrified, and naturally promised that he would never open his mouth.

However, a burst of noise from outside shattered his dream and made him understand what it means to be cruel in reality.

Butler Li, who ran to the door to see what was going on, was terrified, Imperial Guard!
Thousands of people directly surrounded the Zhongfu, and all of them were wearing dark red armor. This is the imperial guard directly belonging to the emperor!
The imperial guards, which only the emperor can mobilize, directly surrounded the Zhongfu. How could Steward Li not be alarmed.

The troops sent by Xuan Guogong were also staunch, and blocked the door to prevent the imperial guards from entering!

"Why, do you want to defy the decree openly?"

The guards who were confronting him separated on both sides, an elderly eunuch walked out, and directly showed a golden commanding arrow at the people blocking the door.

The people blocking the door were startled and knelt on one knee.

The eunuch said loudly: "Your Majesty has an order. The Zhong Mansion is suspected of harboring important criminals. They will be sealed up immediately. All members of the Zhong Mansion will be taken into custody and will be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for strict interrogation. Anyone who obstructs them can be executed first and then executed!"

Steward Li behind the door was shocked when he heard the words, and hurried back to the mansion to report.

After delivering the decree, the eunuch shouted to a group of kneeling people: "Don't give way!"

The people blocking the door immediately got up and quickly moved to the two sides.

There was no way around it, the perpetrators in the area around the city gate went a little too far, and caused public outrage. The relevant power class moved quickly, alarming the emperor and directly mobilizing the imperial guards to intervene. It was not something they could stop.

From this, the eunuch swaggered in, coming with momentum, with arrogance.

The scene of breaking through the door shocked the servants in the pavilions and waterside pavilions of the Zhongfu to jump wildly.

The imperial guards who broke in have already started to arrest people, no matter what their identities are, they will be detained first.

"Ugh!"

Zhong Su in the inner house sighed looking up to the sky when he heard the report. He was afraid that something would come, but it really came.

He turned towards an attic, and raised his hand to make a gesture.

Soon, there was a bang.

call out!A firework that cannot be seen clearly during the day soared into the sky, dragging a red line straight into the sky.

Steward Li and Du Fei looked in astonishment, even they didn't know what was going on...

Within the capital city, there is a quiet mountain forest. When you enter the mountain, you will find it secluded.

This is one of the best places in the capital city. It was originally a privately owned garden of the royal family, but it was used by the emperor for other purposes. It has also become another famous place, Sinan Mansion!
On the street not far from Sinan Mansion, lame Old Wu has been staring in the direction of Zhong Mansion, waiting eagerly.

Seeing that it was almost evening, when I suddenly saw something rising into the sky in the distance, I thought it was my eyesight.

He rubbed his eyes, then took a closer look, and was shocked when he saw the red mist dissipate, and immediately turned around and walked towards the main gate of Sinan Mansion.

He limped and ran urgently, he knew that once Zhong Yuanwai used 'see you in a hurry', it meant the situation was critical.

There are guards at the gate of Sinan Mansion, and the ones guarding the outside are also guards.

Before the crippled old Wu approached, he was pointed at by the guard at the gate, signaling not to approach.

How could the crippled old Wu not approach, he hurried forward and cupped his hands and said: "Please tell the mother, the villain wants to present a treasure to the mother!"

Isn't it a joke that anyone who comes at random will report to Mother Earth? It's different from just anyone who comes at the gate of the palace and is asked to report to the emperor.

Looking at Lao Wu's clothes, he is clearly a servant.

He was pushed out by the guards on the spot, and fell to the ground and rolled over a few times.

The guard yelled, "This is not a place for you to mess around, if you don't get out, be careful of your dog's life!"

The crippled old Wu got up on the ground, and there was severe pain in his wrist. He immediately felt that his wrist was at least twisted. He looked back at the faintly dissipating red mist in the sky, and then looked at the gate of Sinan Mansion, which he could not enter. Getting up, he shouted towards the mountain: "Little Yuntu, the villain has a treasure, Xiaoyuntu, which I want to dedicate to my empress, and I want to present Xiaoyuntu to my empress..."

Dare to yell here, I'm tired of work, the two guards are punching and kicking when they go up.

"Little Yuntu, the villain wants to offer a treasure, little Yuntu, the villain wants to offer a treasure..."

Old Wu, the cripple who was writhing on the ground bleeding from the beating, was still screaming desperately.

"stop!"

The staff of Sinan Mansion who came in and out of the door suddenly stopped and yelled, and hurried over to push away the beating guards, squatting down and asking, "What picture are you talking about?"

Lame old Wu is not young, how can he stand such a beating, several ribs have been kicked, one arm has been kicked, and several teeth have been knocked out, his mouth and nose are bloody, and one eye blinks It was so swollen that there was only a seam left.

However, after hearing the question, he was gasping for breath, but he still tried his best to shout loudly: "Xiao Yuntu, it is Xiao Yuntu that the villain dedicated to the mother of the earth!"

The guards at the gate didn't know what Xiaoyuntu was, but the Sinan Mansion staff understood it immediately. They were quite surprised. They looked at Lao Wu's clothes up and down. I wondered how ordinary people knew about "Little Yuntu". He hurriedly asked : "Where is the picture?"

The crippled old Wu lay on the ground trying to catch his breath, let out a sigh of relief, and was a little speechless.

The staff from the Sinan Mansion immediately helped him sit up, put a palm on his back, injected internal energy into him, and helped him sort out his breath.

Old Wu immediately let out a breath, "The treasure map is only dedicated to the empress, if I don't see the empress, I would rather die than give it to you!"

The staff from the Sinan Mansion said in a deep voice: "You have to understand that there are many people in this world who are self-righteous or ignorant. If anyone wants to see the empress, they only need to make up a reason, and the empress will meet, then what will happen?"

"The villain understands." The crippled old Wu nodded vigorously, reached out and touched his other immobile hand, held an index finger, suddenly made a 'click' sound, and broke it off on the spot in front of the other party. He picked up an index finger, and his whole body was trembling with pain, blood and water from the corner of his mouth mixed with saliva and hung down together, and he replied tremblingly, "If there are false words, it will be like this finger!"

The guard who beat him just now was shocked and looked at each other in blank dismay.

The staff from the Sinan Mansion were also very moved, immediately picked him up and rushed up the mountain...

At this time, the Bell Mansion has been wiped out.

Whether it was the master or the servants, they were all gathered in the front yard. Together with the guards, hundreds of people knelt on the ground and were guarded by the Imperial Guards surrounded.

Zhong Su looked miserable.

Wen Jianhui sobbed, not knowing why a good family suddenly fell into such a state.

The two sisters kneeling together had different expressions, Wen Ruowei bit his lip and looked left and right, Zhong Ruochen was expressionless.

The servants of Zhong's residence were all trembling.
