Chapter 117
Qin Yi secretly hoped that King Mu could find out Quan Shenhan's problem and solve him.

Of course, he also knew that this was his own wishful thinking.

If there is really a problem with Quan Shenhan, or if King Mu really caught Quan Shenhan's handle, he will not let the other party still wear this official uniform and stand here.

"Reporting to the lord, the last general just doesn't know how to answer. This is a bit... a bit embarrassing." Quan Shenhan replied.

Just now, he restrained his thoughts, and immediately thought of an excuse.

King Mu remained silent, staring at Quan Shenhan closely.

"The death of You Rui was my misjudgment." Quan Shenhan put on an embarrassed expression, "From the mouth of the scouts, I learned that there was a crossbow machine in the Yinlian Valley. All the soldiers went to Yinlian Valley to investigate."

"When we arrived in the Yinlian Valley, the general was negligent and didn't take precautions, so he sent his own soldiers out to look for clues." Quan Shenhan blamed himself, "The general was looking at a crossbow when he suddenly heard a miserable howl. Only to find that You Rui was killed by a bandit who is still alive."

This is fake, it must be fake... When Qin Yi heard this, he knew that Quan Shenhan was lying.

If the bandits were not dead, they would never dare to act without authorization.

At this time, survival is the top priority. Bandits will wait until there is no one around, get up and check, and only dare to leave if there is no problem. It is impossible to do it directly.

He wanted to refute Quan Shenhan, but here, he has no official status and should not speak without consent.

Even relying on King Mu's appreciation to question Quan Shenhan aloud, it would have no effect.

Because there is no evidence to prove that Quan Shenhan is lying.

Even if they asked about the corpse, the other party would definitely say that it was left in the Yinlian Valley.

There were dead bodies all over the place, and they couldn't be found at all.

King Mu stared at Quan Shenhan, without saying a word for a long time, and then said coldly, "I will send the spy guards to investigate, and I hope that what you do is exactly what you said."

Quan Shenhan pursed his lips and remained silent, heaving a sigh of relief.

This pass is over.

Of course, he also knew that if he left the city without authorization, he would definitely be punished, but there were reasons for the incident, and the consequences would not be too serious.

For him, saving his life is the most important thing, only in this way can he make a comeback.

Sitting on the side, Qin Yi always felt that there was something wrong.

Regarding this You Rui, Quan Shenhan must have concealed a huge secret.

Maybe the other party's sudden departure from the city is related to this person, so you have to check it yourself!
Although the spy guards are powerful, they can't be relied on entirely. Maybe they can find out the problems that they can't?

After the questioning, King Mu frowned and fell silent.

Zeng Mingzhi and the others bowed their heads and stood in silence, not daring to speak.

The atmosphere became a little dull.

After a while, King Mu suddenly said, "Your Majesty gave me an edict and ordered me to be an imperial envoy. Apart from investigating your mistakes, the biggest purpose is to find out the source of the military crossbow."

This is the main reason for the queen's anger.

Therefore, King Mu's first priority is to find out the source of the military crossbow.

But the spy guards had been investigating for a few days first, but they didn't have any useful clues.

The bandit leader Jiao Mao, a rare person who knew the truth, died in prison, so that the clues were interrupted.

This is also the reason why King Mu hates seeing Zeng Mingzhi very much.

If it wasn't for this guy's meritorious service, and the fact that the government office needs people to maintain it, King Mu would be the first to dismiss him and investigate him.

"But I don't have a clue so far. I don't know who can give me a little bit of confusion." King Mu narrowed his eyes, and his sharp eyes swept over everyone in the hall.

Being looked at by him, Zeng knew that he felt a chill down his spine, and quickly shook his head, "Reporting to the lord, the next official is busy with the aftermath, and Jiao Mao has not been interrogated, this fellow..."

He didn't dare to say the latter words, for fear of offending King Mu again.

The implication is that he didn't get any clues, and the insider died.

King Mu's eyelids twitched, and his anger soared, but he suppressed it. He snorted angrily, turned his head, and looked at Jing Xun.

Jing Xun looked calm, without sadness or joy, and slowly shook his head.

He just rushed back yesterday, and he also asked Min Tai, but he didn't have any useful clues.

Before King Mu could see it, Quan Shenhan replied quickly, "Reporting to the prince, the general will not know about it."

King Mu's face turned darker, as if great anger was brewing.

If there is no clue, there will be no progress in this case, so what's the use of him traveling all the way here?

Didn't he betray the empress' trust?
He was about to reprimand when he suddenly heard a voice from the corner, "My lord, the students know a little bit, but I don't know if it will be useful."

Hearing what Qin Yi said, King Mu immediately stopped his angry reprimand, and turned his head to look, a little stunned.

Knowing that he was happy in his heart, Zeng secretly sighed that Qin Yi was really his blessing.

If it is true that no one knows, King Mu will definitely be extremely annoyed and anger them.

Qin Yi's ability to stand up calmed King Mu's anger.

"Let's hear it." King Mu restrained his anger, his expression became flat, and he said slowly.

"When the students led the crowd to capture Jiao Mao, they found that the bandits had dozens of crossbows, so they interrogated them in person and learned the source of the crossbows." Qin Yi said loudly.

Everyone was startled, and suddenly turned their heads to look at Qin Yi.

Even Quan Shenhan, Bai Guanglin and the others were all surprised.

After King Mu was astonished, he was overjoyed and said quickly, "Tell me quickly."

Originally, he was annoyed that Jiao Mao was silenced, but unexpectedly, Qin Yi actually asked about the news.

This is a great achievement!

"Jiao Mao said frankly that he didn't know who gave the crossbow. The other party was too secretive and didn't show up at all. First, he sent a letter expressing his willingness to fund, and then sent a letter to let the bandits go to Liulang Mountain. There are them there. Funded things." Qin Yi said quickly, "When the bandits arrived at Liulang Mountain, they saw more than [-] crossbow machines and nearly [-] crossbow bolts."

After hearing what Qin Yi said, King Mu narrowed his eyes.

Sure enough, there is a traitor!
And it's not ordinary!
The other party is so secretive, it can be seen that the conspiracy is not small!
In addition to being shocked, King Mu was also slightly pleased that Qin Yi gave an extremely useful clue!
Suppressing his joy, he nodded flatly, "You did a good job, and I will credit you for this credit."

After finishing speaking, he nodded to Qianhu, the spy guard who stood behind him, and the latter walked out quickly, and arranged for people to go to Mount Liulang for investigation.

Everyone in the hall was full of thoughts.

Especially Zeng Mingzhi and Quan Shenhan, at the beginning, they only cared about themselves, worried that they would be severely punished, and didn't think much about the crossbow.

Now after hearing what Qin Yi said, they realized that some people with evil intentions were planning a huge conspiracy.

This conspiracy will affect the entire Linzhan, and even cause an overturn!

Never take it lightly.

No wonder the Empress was so furious, and immediately sent the most trusted King Mu to come. It can be seen that she realized that there was a huge disaster hidden behind this incident!
