Chapter 17 "The Murder of the Polo Team Leader"

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

Dr. Jiu, who was serving at the side, rushed forward and bowed to apologize: "It's my lack of waiting that disturbed your interest!"

"That's it!"

An Zhongjing restrained his smile, waved his hand, and said in a deep voice, "That's Brother Fu's family member, please persuade her away with good words, don't force her."

Jia Sibo also sighed: "It's a pity, Brother Fu."

Brother Fu was once a guest of the young nobles in Liangzhou, and was widely recognized for his superb polo skills.

Just like the sports stars of later generations, everyone ignored his origin and really liked him.

It's a pity that he lost the chain at a critical moment. On the eve of the match with Tubo, he couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide.

Everyone was angry and regretful.

Of course, this is also the final victory of the game, and the result has become better, otherwise there will be only anger and no regrets.

However, the next moment, there was a sound of ping-pong-pong outside, and the woman's voice actually became closer: "Ah Lang is my husband's master!"

An Zhongjing raised his brows, and said apologetically to Li Yan: "This woman is fierce, Yuan Fang, I'm not strong enough to control her, you'll laugh at me."

Li Yandao: "My husband is unlucky, emotionally agitated, it's human nature."

An Zhongjing was a little annoyed when he heard that the commotion outside was even worse: "Let her in!"

Not long after, a tall and strong woman with loose hair and wearing a white linen mourning dress was brought in.

After she came in, she directly fell to the ground, bowed her head again and again, looking miserable: "Liniang pays homage to Ah Lang, please be the master of my husband!"

"You don't have to, you get up and talk."

An Zhongjing raised his hand: "You just said that Brother Fu didn't commit suicide, why do you have such an idea?"

Liniang stood up, stretched out her hand to straighten her hair, and showed a beautiful and determined face: "My husband was full of confidence yesterday, and he told my concubine that he would win Tubo, how could he commit suicide overnight? Murder!"

An Zhongjing shook his head helplessly.

The collapse of an adult is often in a flash. Brother Fu started from a humble beginning, changed his destiny by playing polo, and suddenly faced the much-anticipated competition. It is not surprising that he was crushed. In front of his wife, it was just a disguise.

Liniang seemed to be able to see what An Zhongjing was thinking, took out something from her bosom, and said anxiously: "My husband is not trying to force it, this is the diary he wrote, please read it!"

Rilu is an ancient diary, An Zhongjing took it, looked at it casually, with a surprised expression.

He quickly flipped to the end and read it carefully: "Is this really what he wrote yesterday?"

Liniang nodded: "Yes! Never dare to lie to A Lang!"

"Strange!"

An Zhongjing frowned, seeing Jia Sibo poking his head over, he offered it to him.

"I never thought Brother Fu could write such good calligraphy!"

Jia Sibo took it, and soon said in amazement: "The pen is strong and done in one go. This is not what someone who wants to commit suicide can write."

After speaking, he passed it to Li Yan.

"It is indeed a good word."

After reading the first article, Li Yan nodded slightly.

Brother Fu's handwriting is really good, just looking at this thick diary, it looks like a child from a poor family in the Central Plains, preparing to take the imperial examination.

And the content of the diary, in addition to a polo player's daily life, which records full of shooting skills, also has reading notes from time to time.

Li Yan saw the Taoist "Tongxuan Jing", which is not far behind the explanation given by Dr. Xueguan.

Knowledge changes destiny!
Li Yan understood, no wonder this Khitan boy became the guest of each government.

Considering that he is the grandson of Li Jing, he doesn't know how to dance, so he seems a little out of place. If Brother Fu only knows how to play polo and has no common language with the family members, then it would be embarrassing to be among them. Next time, others won't Ask him.

Only by constantly enriching oneself and approaching the nobles in conversation and knowledge, will everyone take him to play together.

It's a pity that this self-improving polo leader has turned into a cold corpse.

In the last sharp diary, the various tactical analysis of Tubo and the yearning for future life can no longer be realized.

After the daily record was circulated, everyone started whispering and their attitudes changed.

An Zhongjing asked: "Liniang, you believe that Brother Fu was murdered by others, is there anyone you suspect?"

Liniang lowered her head: "I dare not speak nonsense."

An Zhongjing said: "The room where Brother Fu died is the place where the team rests and prepares for the game. Only members of my Liangzhou team can enter. The body was also discovered by Shi Ming of the same team."

"If Brother Fu survived and defeated Tubo, they would be congratulated here, but because of Brother Fu's death, they lost this great opportunity to perform. Do you think they will be the murderers who killed your husband?"

To put it bluntly, there is no motive for killing.

For the polo players, murdering their captain would be harmful but not beneficial. Even if there were any internal conflicts that were unknown, it should not have erupted at such a time.

Liniang gritted her teeth, and raised her head abruptly: "Ah Lang, I suspect someone!"

If he hadn't read the diary, An Zhongjing would definitely ignore it, but at this moment he was really curious: "Tell me!"

"It's Shi Ming!"

Liniang wept and said: "My husband regards Shi Ming as a brother, but this man is a wolf-hearted man with secret evil intentions. He came to our house a few days ago as a guest and wanted to treat me lightly. After being scolded by me, he left in a hurry!"

Her appearance is already regarded as a beauty among ordinary people, and she is very attractive. In addition, men should be pretty in soap, and women should be pretty in filial piety. Still have vision.

This little widow is so moist!

Bah, brothers and wives can't be bullied!

Men in Liangzhou are the most bloody, how can they see this kind of behavior, Shi Ming is like a pig and a dog!

An Zhongjing's face sank completely: "Is this really the case?"

"My concubine is willing to confront him! I suspect that he has hatred in his heart. I don't want my husband to defeat Tubo and gain glory, so I secretly harmed him and faked hanging myself!"

Liniang knelt down again and kowtowed to An Zhongjing, Jia Sibo and even Kang Meng: "Please be the master of my husband!"

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of the aristocratic families in the hall changed one after another.

If this accusation is true, it is of an abominable nature.

This is not only a backstab from a teammate, but also the most intolerable betrayal at an important moment in the diplomacy of the two countries.

"The concubine has one more piece of evidence."

Liniang said again: "Every time my husband plays polo, the winning knot behind the saddle is taught by my concubine, which is different. If he is really looking for short-sightedness, he must use this usual knot. But others forged it, and the knots used must be different..."

An Zhongjing looked at Kang Meng.

Kang Meng immediately said: "You can find a coordinator to confirm this matter, the rope is still reserved."

An Zhongjing waved his hand: "Okay, this matter must be settled quickly, I don't want such treacherous people hiding in my polo team!"

After that, he ordered his servants: "Go and bring Shi Ming... No, call the whole polo team and have another banquet."

After the arrangements were made, he stood up, came to Liniang, helped her up with his own hands, and said solemnly: "I will definitely investigate and find out the truth, and we must not let innocent people die with injustice!"

Liniang burst into tears: "Thank you Alang!"

Although the celebration banquet was interrupted, the interest of the family members became even higher.

If it weren't for the fact that mixed dances between men and women were not popular in this era, and Fu Lang had just died, maybe everyone would have been invited to dance.

Even so, they also went up one after another to greet their relatives and show their righteous attitude.

Jia Sibo was one of the few who didn't move, because he noticed that Li Yan was sitting on the table, and his gaze towards everyone changed slightly.

He felt familiar with that penetrating gaze.

When the elders in the family look at the younger generation who is showing off their scheming, they will have a somewhat half-smile like this.

But now, Li Yan can actually have this kind of temperament?
In the previous relationship with Mingming, although this person was very skilled in martial arts and mature in dealing with the world, he was unavoidably a bit dull most of the time.

But now...

"Fool on the outside and wise on the inside, is it as clever as clumsy?"

Jia Sibo's heart trembled, and he no longer dared to underestimate him.

But Li Yan was immersed in the wonderful changes, and looked at everything that happened in the field, and he had two completely different feelings.

"This case is interesting!"
