Chapter 44
"Is the eldest son in the mansion?"

Qin Wei didn't want to talk nonsense with this old guy anymore, so he asked.

"Not here!" Cheng Guogong opened his eyes and said nonsense, without any intention of blushing.

"is it?"

Qin Wei frowned.

"Why don't you ask me to do a search?"

"His Royal Highness, don't go too far!"

"Then what if the king goes too far?"

"As long as His Royal Highness dares to kill the old man, the old man will naturally not have the slightest complaint!" Cheng Guogong said coldly.

People are dead, so naturally there will be no complaints!

But if Qin Wei wanted to kill him, wouldn't he be playing tricks?
"How come? This king can't kill the Duke!"

Qin Wei didn't care about the old guy's cheating, "Yuwen Chengdu, watch out for the Duke, don't hurt the Duke!"

"Subordinate to obey!"

Yuwen Chengdu responded, and immediately stepped forward, arriving in front of Cheng Guogong.

Compared with the old Cheng Guogong, his burly body is like a bear staring at a macaque.

Clang~~
Just at this moment, a snow-white sword glow suddenly bloomed, lying in front of Yu Wencheng.

It was a thin old man holding a three-foot-long ring-shou knife.

Breaking Wind Dao Lu Ming!

Yu Wencheng's expression moved slightly, and he stared at Lu Ming.

This Lu Ming is a martial artist cultivated by Cheng Guogong's mansion. He has always followed Cheng Guogong, and he is the most trusted person of Cheng Guogong.

Yu Wencheng swung the phoenix-winged gold-plated iron in Yu Wencheng's hand violently, and Lu Ming raised his knife to block it.

clang~~
With a crisp sound, Lu Ming took two steps back.

Immediately afterwards, he slashed at Yuwen Chengdu again.

The sharp knife gesture carried a chilling killing intent.

But before the blade reached Yu Wencheng, it was blocked by a dagger.

The short sword is one foot long, the whole body is black, and the thin and short figure is nailed to the bluestone ground like a nail. No matter how hard Lu Ming tries, he can't make an inch of progress.

It was none other than Qi Lin who made the move.

"Who is your Excellency?" Lu Ming stared at Qi Lin who was right in front of him, and asked.

"The commander of the Zhenwu Division is Qi Lin!" Qi Lin replied softly.

His voice was very low, as if he was deliberately suppressing it, and his face was very ordinary, even if he took a few more glances, he would not remember his appearance.

"Death chaser Qi Lin!" Lu Ming's face changed slightly!
Life Chaser is Qi Lin's title in the folk arena.

As an intelligence officer, Qi Lin has never used the identity of the Imperial City Secretary in the arena, and has always been in the arena as a casual cultivator.

Life-chasing ghosts are called life-chasing ghosts, but they are actually ghosts!
Haunted and haunted, no one knows its origin, no one knows its whereabouts, just like a lonely ghost.

Cheng Guogong's face was serious, "Zhen Wusi is really a hidden dragon and crouching tiger, but the old man underestimated Zhen Wusi!"

He doesn't know what a life chaser is, but he knows that the person who can make Lu Ming so nervous is definitely not an ordinary person.

Qin Wei jumped off his horse and stepped into the threshold of Duke Cheng's mansion.

"The Zhenwu Division handles the case, and anyone who dares to resist will be killed!"

"Uh, no, except for our Duke, everyone else can be killed!"

Qin Wei stood on the steps of the gate, his eyes swept over the guards in the courtyard.

Zhen Wusi has the right to kill first and then play, but only for officials below the third rank and nobles below the marquis, he really can't kill this Cheng Guogong.

Hundreds of warriors from the town filed in, and rushed into Duke Cheng's mansion in the blink of an eye.

The guards in Duke Cheng's mansion tightly held the crossbow in their hands, and stared at Duke Cheng tightly.

They were all waiting for Duke Cheng to make up his mind.

Cheng Guogong's face was gloomy and uncertain, and his eyes were full of ruthlessness.

At this moment, he already had killing intent towards Qin Wei in his heart, but he was even more afraid of Qin Wei, or Li Huang behind Qin Wei.

At this moment, Lu Shangqing walked over with a livid face.

"What's going on? Who dares to be presumptuous in the Duke's Mansion?"

He still didn't know what happened, he only knew that someone led troops to surround the Duke's Mansion.

In this capital, there are really not many people who dare to lead troops to surround the Duke's Mansion.

So after getting the news, his immediate thought was not to panic, but to see who had eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall.

Qin Wei smiled when he saw Lu Shangqing.

"The eldest son should know this king!"

Lu Shangqing looked at Qin Wei, his long and narrow eyes narrowed suddenly.

He has never met Qin Wei, this is the first time he has seen Qin Wei.

"Who are you?"

"Qin Wei, Prince of Xin'an County!" Qin Wei introduced himself.

Lu Shangqing's expression was a little stiff, "What is the Duke of the county coming to do with me?"

"Catch you!" Qin Wei said.

Lu Shangqing looked at him with some hesitation, "I shouldn't have offended His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Qin Wei smiled bluntly, "If you want people not to know, unless you don't do it yourself."

"Well, the king was assassinated a few days ago. It is said that the assassin came from Cheng Guogong's mansion! I don't know if it is true or not?"

"Impossible!" Lu Shangqing said nervously.

Qin Wei shook his head and said: "This king also thinks it's impossible, after all, the Duke of the Kingdom is our honorable and important minister of Dali, how can he use such indecent methods!"

"So this king didn't believe these rumors!"

Qin Wei grinned.

"Then why is His Royal Highness doing this?" Lu Shangqing relaxed a little.

Qin Wei looked at him and said, "This king wants to seek justice for my third brother."

Lu Shangqing was a little confused.

Who are these three elder brothers?

"This king's third brother is Zhen Guo Lieutenant Qin Shangze!" Qin Wei said with a smile.

Lu Shangqing's face turns blue and white.

He finally understood that Qin Wei came here to deliberately find fault.

Seeking justice for Qin Shangze is just an excuse!

He looked at Cheng Guogong, and at this moment, Cheng Guogong also looked at him, his eyes were full of questions.

Cheng Guogong is smarter than Lu Shangqing. At the beginning, Qin Wei charged Lu Shangqing with murdering the royal family, and he felt something was wrong.

It's just that he couldn't figure out in what ways Lu Shangqing offended Qin Wei.

But now he understands.

Assassination!

Lu Shangqing missed Cheng Guogong's sight, bowed his head and remained silent.

When Cheng Guogong saw this, he knew it in his heart.

The mastermind of the assassination must be Lu Shangqing!

Knowing a son is like a father!
Cheng Guogong knows Lu Shangqing's character and temperament best.

Domineering, vicious, and reckless in doing things!

Duke Cheng would not be surprised if Lu Shangqing hired Jianghu warriors to assassinate Qin Wei.

It's just that his heart is still full of anger, because he has warned Lu Shangqing not to target Zhenwusi and Qin Wei again.

Unexpectedly, Lu Shangqing is still so unscrupulous!

"My lord, can I take the eldest son away?" Qin Wei asked.

Cheng Guogong said with a stiff expression: "No!"

He knew that if Qin Wei took Lu Shangqing away, then Lu Shangqing might never come back.

"Then I'm sorry!"

Qin Wei held the Qiushuang sword and stood on the steps of the door, his stern gaze swept over the surrounding people.

"Lu Shangqing is arrogant and domineering. He disrespected the royal family. He beat Zhen Guo Lieutenant Qin Shangze two years ago, causing Qin Shangze's legs to be disabled. He deserves to be punished!"

buzzing~~
The bowstring was tensed, the cold arrow was raised, and the soldiers of Zhenwu Division confronted Cheng Guogong's guards.

The tense and chilling atmosphere was as stagnant as the substance, and heavy pressure fell on everyone's heart.

"Iron Hand!"

"The subordinate is here!"

"Take it!"

"Here!"

Tie Shou responded, and immediately stepped forward and walked towards Lu Shangqing.

In an instant, everyone's eyes were on him, and the arrows in the hands of the guards in Duke Cheng's mansion also pointed towards him.
