Tibet

Chapter 287
At dawn the next day, there was a terrified scream from the Furong Courtyard in the Jiaofang Annex, and a maid crawled out, shouting, "Someone is coming, murder!"

People around heard the news and ran over. Dozens of people surrounded the room, all talking in low voices. In the room, a young man was lying naked at the door of the bathroom with his underwear on. There were puddles of blood on his back and on the ground. , has solidified.

"Get out of the way!"

The overweight steward of the teaching workshop pushed aside the crowd and came in. He took a look at the room, gasped and asked, "Who was killed?"

The old bustard tremblingly said: "It is Mr. Yang!"

"Which Mr. Yang, speak clearly!"

"It's Yang Xiangguo's fourth son!"

"what!"

The manager of the teaching workshop was like a thunderbolt, he stood there for a moment, his vision went dark, and he fainted from fright.

The onlookers heard that the deceased was Yang Guozhong's son, and they scattered in fear of getting into trouble.

The steward slowly regained consciousness, crying with a trembling voice, "Hurry up. Hurry up and report to the police!"

Not long after, Zheng Keshan, the county magistrate of Wannian County, and Feng Min, the county lieutenant, led a large number of yamen servants to rush over, immediately sealed off the Jiaofang Annex, and began to investigate all relevant personnel.

At this time, someone shouted: "Jing Zhaoyin is here!"

The deceased was the son of Xiangguo Yang Guozhong, a member of the Yang family. The seriousness of the case actually alarmed Jing Zhaoyin and Li Xian. He rushed to the scene of the crime with more than [-] subordinates.

The county magistrate Zheng Keshan hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects, and Li Xian asked, "Are you sure about the deceased?"

"Reporting to the envoy, the deceased has been identified as Yang Xi, the fourth son of Yang Xiangguo."

"When did he die, and who was the murderer?"

Zheng Keshan winked at Feng Min, the county lieutenant, and Feng Min hurried forward and said, "According to our judgment, he died last night. We don't know who the murderer is, but it must be related to Jiaofang's new dancer Qiao Furong, but the dancer Both Ji and her personal maid are missing."

Li Xian asked again: "Has there been any movement at the crime scene?"

"Basically not moving!"

"Okay! You are responsible for investigating the relationship between the deceased and the suspect. Let's check the scene."

"Follow the order!"

Zheng Keshan wiped the sweat from his brow, and began to summon related persons for detailed interrogation.

Li Xian walked into the room, and the man who followed Li Xian into the room was Peng Haiyan, a master investigator and one of Li Xian's most capable assistants.

He looked around the four rooms connected together, and then looked at the bathroom for a while, carefully inspecting Yang Xi's body.

"See what?" Li Xian asked.

Peng Haiyan nodded and said: "There are three people in the room, two women and the deceased. One woman is tall and dexterous, and the other is young and thin. It should be the dancing girl Qiao Furong and her maid. The assailant was taller. I deduced that it was Qiao Furong. She used a very thin and pointed weapon, a bit like a water thorn, and pierced it directly from the back of the heart. One knife was fatal, but another knife was made. This knife pierced the spine, unexpectedly If it was pierced, it means that she has great strength and is a martial artist."

"How did you kill it?"

Peng Haiyan pointed to the curtain next to him and said, "The assassin is hiding here. Her maid is taking a bath in the bathtub in the room. Qiao Furong pretends to call Yang Xi to come and wash with her. Yang Xi comes here with her upper body bare and only a pair of pants , so as to ensure that Yang Xi was not wearing protective inner armor. At that time, there was a lot of water vapor in the bathroom, and he could not see her appearance clearly. Yang Xi only saw a woman in the bathtub. He thought it was Qiao Furong, and lost his vigilance. One shot from behind."

"and then?"

Li Xian asked again: "Did they leave any clues?"

Peng Haiyan shook his head, "They had a premeditated plan. All the things left behind are from other buildings, and they don't own any of them."

"Search further, I'll go out and ask!"

Li Xian walked back to the yard again, and the fat steward came in with the county captain Feng Min, Li Xian said: "I want to know everything about Qiao Furong!"

The fat steward said tremblingly: "Qiao Furong's real name is Zhang Wuyang. She is 16 years old this year. She just came from Luoyang a month ago. She has a letter of recommendation from Luoyang Peony Square, saying that she is the best dancer. We also passed the school exam. She is really good. So I left her in the Jiaofang Annex, last night was the first time she received a guest, I didn't expect it to happen."

"How do you know that it's her first time picking up customers?"

"She claims to keep her body like a jade, and she does not sell herself as a performer. We can also see that she is a virgin without human affairs."

"Then why did you sell yourself last night?"

"Because Enke is the son of Yang Xiangguo, we also persuaded her that maybe she can enter the Yang family as a concubine, so she agreed."

Li Xian nodded, "Could she be targeting Yang Xi? But what if Yang Xi doesn't come to the other building?"

Feng Min, the county lieutenant, bowed and said, "Emissary Li, there's something strange about this, and I asked in detail because of my humble position. The day before yesterday was Yang Xi's 17th birthday, and I should have come to celebrate his birthday last night. It was arranged by a man named Wu Gui." The venue, Qiao Furong was also ordered by him, and he asked Qiao Furong to dance by name."

"Wu Gui, Wu Xin's son?"

"it's him!"

The fat manager hurriedly said: "That Wu Gui has been here several times, and asked Qiao Furong to sleep with him several times, but Qiao Furong refused all the time, because this is the teaching workshop, after the Shenlong Party incident, he didn't dare to mess around. Furong has always held a grudge."

Li Xian said lightly: "This woman is very scheming, and if Wu Gui is involved, Wu Gui will have many enemies!"

At this time, Peng Haiyan walked to the door and said, "Master, her goal is Yang Xi!"

"What did you find?"

"Please let me come and see!"

Li Xian led everyone into the room, Peng Haiyan pointed to the head of the bed and said, "Please take a look, envoy!"

Seeing more than a dozen sheep engraved on the bedside, each sheep had its head cut off by the sword, Li Xian gasped, this is to attack all the Yang family!
He immediately said to Feng Min: "You immediately send people to Luoyang Peony Song and Dance Workshop to investigate the situation of Zhang Wuyang!"

Li Xian said to Peng Haiyan again: "Go and bring Wu Gui to Jingzhao Mansion, I want to ask him about his situation!"

At this moment, Yang Guozhong rushed into the yard with a few people like a gust of wind, and seeing his son's body at a glance, he fell to his knees, caressing the corpse and crying loudly.

The murder of Yang Guozhong's son immediately became a major event that caused a sensation in Chang'an, replacing the topic of Anxi Tang's victory in the river. At this time, not many people paid attention to the Anxi Army's victory.

Li Linfu's carriage returned to the mansion as usual. These two days were originally to discuss the arrangements of Gao Xianzhi and Cheng Qianli. Yang Guozhong has been obstructing it, desperately obliterating the victory of Anxi Army. Now that his son is dead, he probably has no mood to destroy himself. What a coincidence.

The carriage entered the gate of the mansion, Li Linfu got out of the carriage, took out a note and handed it to his confidant guard Wang Kuan and said, "Send it to Runzhou Wulang in a pigeon letter tomorrow morning!"

The grandson is coming back, of course Li Linfu wants to reunite his family.

Walking into the study, the eldest son Li Xiu said at the door: "Father, I have something to see you!"

Li Linfu was also looking for him, so he nodded and said, "Come in!"

Li Xiu walked in quickly, currently Li Xiu was serving as the Minister of Dali Temple, and he had quite a bit of real power in his hands.

This is also the compensation given by the emperor Li Longji for Li Linfu's voluntary resignation from Zhongshu Lingyou. After all, Li Xiu is the eldest son, and this kind of compensation must of course fall on the eldest son.

Li Xiu knelt down and saluted, "Tell father first, sister Jiu is back!"

The Nine Sisters mentioned by Li Xiu are Li Linfu's ninth daughter, Li Tengkong, who is a disciple of Liefeng and is currently practicing Taoism in Lingyun Nunnery on Lushan Mountain.

Li Linfu had too many children, he didn't care about this daughter who deviated from the orthodoxy and wanted to be a fairy since childhood, he had Lie Feng to care about her, and he didn't have so much energy.

"Let's talk about her later!"

Li Linfu said lightly: "I want to know about Yang Xi's murder case, please tell me about it!"
