Tibet

Chapter 449
Li Ye found Zhang Ping, and soon, Zhang Ping invited the warrior Yang Shun to the firm.

"I'm going to trouble Brother Yang again!"

Yang Shun nodded with a smile and said, "Brother is offended when he says this. It's my honor to help you a little bit!"

Li Ye told Yang Shun to sit down, took out a drawing and put it on the table. The picture showed a hall with a table and a couch, and a person was lying on the ground with blood all over his head.

Li Ye smiled at Yang Shun and said, "Can you recognize Brother Yang in this picture?"

Yang Shun looked at Li Ye and Peng Haiyan, and found that they were both wearing official uniforms of Dali Temple, and he became a little nervous.

"Captain Li, aren't you the general leading the army? Are you also in charge of investigating the case?"

Li Ye smiled and said: "I have just been seconded to Dali Temple. Don't be nervous. It is not a formal investigation now. I am just asking you privately. I have to give you some face."

Yang Shun felt relieved, looked at the painting and said, "Could this be the night when the Prince Consort died?"

"Yes, I want to restore the scene at that time and ask Brother Yang to recall it."

Yang Shun nodded, "I remember very clearly that this is Zhang Xiangguo. He originally wanted to get under the table, but he couldn't get in. There was a screen behind him, and he crawled behind the screen again, with half of his body exposed. "

One of Peng Haiyan's painters next to him immediately picked up a pen and sketched a screen. One person lay down on the ground and hid behind the screen, but his buttocks were exposed, trembling all over.

Yang Shun laughed, "Yes! That's how it looks, the trembling body is so expressive."

"What does an assassin look like?" Li Ye asked again.

"The assassin is down there, about a foot away from the son-in-law, lying face down."

"What does it look like?"

"I didn't pay attention to the appearance, but it looks very thin, like a seven or eight-year-old child."

Li Ye nodded. It was precisely because of his thin body that Zhang Yi relaxed his vigilance, thinking that the other party could not hurt him.

He winked at the painter, and the painter immediately picked up a brush and drew a thin man lying on the ground.

Yang Shun instructed, "His hands were separated and his legs were tied with ropes!"

The painter immediately sketched the appearance of the assassin, Yang Shun nodded, "That's it!"

Li Ye asked again: "How many people were there in the lobby?"

"Let me think about it?"

Yang Shun raised his head and thought for a while, "If I remember correctly, there should be eleven, the son-in-law and Zhang Xiangguo, there is a little maid who seems to be hiding behind the screen, then the assassins, and finally our seven warriors."

"Which seat is Brother Yang?"

Li Ye didn't show his face, maybe the person in front of him was the one who was choking his neck, and he couldn't let the other party see his intentions.

"I'm in this seat!"

Yang Shun kept on the lower left corner, "We came in from behind, and I have been standing behind."

"Why don't you catch the assassin?"

Yang Shun smiled wryly and said: "The things that showed up were all done by the leader and a few big warriors. I am a little warrior, so I can only fight and act in front of the son-in-law. It's not my turn."

Li Ye nodded. The other party would not buy this kind of small warrior.

"Tell me about the positions of the seven warriors. It's very important. It must be accurate!"

"I can only say that I did my best. Xiao Ma, A Qiao and I stood behind. We were in charge of setting up the net. Chief Liu and the three big warriors caught the assassin together. Lao Wang pressed his leg, it should be, Brother Wang Grabbing a hand with Brother Zhao, Chief Liu pressed his knee on the back of the assassin."

The painter moved his brush like flying, and he painted the seats of the seven warriors very vividly. He stopped the brush and asked, "Where is the hand of this Chief Liu?"

This is the key point, Li Ye didn't ask, but asked the painter to ask casually, mainly to prevent Yang Shun from being vigilant and leaking the news after returning.

Yang Shun thought for a while and said: "Boss Liu likes to pinch the back of the neck with one hand and grab the hair with the other when catching people. It seems to be the same. It was quite chaotic at the time, and his back blocked my sight, so I couldn't see clearly."

At this time, Peng Haiyan asked from the side: "How did this assassin enter the lobby?"

"It was tied like a zongzi, he was thin and small, and he was carried directly into the lobby."

"Have you been searched?"

"Of course a body search is required. Hair and shoes have been searched, but he didn't bring anything with him."

"Who is in charge of the body search?" Peng Haiyan continued to ask.

"The three of us are in charge of the body search."

"Then why hasn't the big poison button sewn on the skirt been taken off?"

Yang Shun sighed, "This is what I regretted. I wanted to grab the button, but the assassin bit my hand. I was annoyed and slapped him a few times. Chief Liu stopped me, and the button was ignored."

Li Ye nodded. Judging from the situation Yang Shun described, Chief Liu was very likely. He stopped Yang Shun and saved two buttons. Secondly, he grabbed his hair with one hand and choked his neck with the other, with his knee still supporting the back of the assassin. No matter what, the assassin couldn't move his back, but he was still able to lower his head and bite off the button, which meant that Chief Liu had released the water.

Li Ye asked again: "How's the situation in the Prince Consort's Mansion these two days?"

Yang Shun said with lingering fear: "It has been a mess since yesterday. Many people packed up their things and ran away. I also stayed at home and did not dare to go back to the Prince Consort's Mansion. I also secretly inquired about the news this morning, saying that the Prince Consort's Mansion was closed. , The government brought a large number of people to investigate the case, and everyone was not allowed to leave, and they passed the trial one by one. Fortunately, I ran away yesterday."

Li Ye quickly asked: "Where is this Chief Liu?"

"It was he who made us go, and I reckon he left too."

"Where is his house? Do you know?"

Yang Shun nodded, "His home is in Chonghuafang, he bought a house last year, and I even went to his home for drinks!"

"Is he a barbarian?" Peng Haiyan asked in surprise.

Peng Haiyan has been working in Jingzhao Mansion. He knows Chang'an very well. Chonghuafang and Huaiyuanfang opposite are both areas where Hu people live together, and there are very few Han people in them.

"Yes! He is Xi Ren from Liaodong, but he is extremely skilled in martial arts. He can beat a group of us warriors by himself. Moreover, he has been in the Prince Consort's Mansion for at least ten years, and he is deeply trusted by the Prince Consort."

Li Ye's heart skipped a beat. Chief Liu was actually Xi Ren. He immediately thought of An Lushan. Could it be that An Lushan assassinated Zhang Yi.

Li Ye pulled Peng Haiyan aside and whispered: "Let's split up! I'll go to Chonghuafang to find Leader Liu, and you can go to the Prince Consort's Mansion to check and observe some details."

Peng Haiyan nodded, "Let's meet at the inn later!"

Chonghuafang is close to the west city wall, not far from Yonghefang where Li Ye used to live. Li Ye’s predecessor often took Zhang Ping and others to Chonghuafang to fight when he was a child. His ass was swollen by Pei Sanniang again.
It's just that Li Ye can't remember clearly now, but he still has a vague impression, as if he had been here before.

Li Ye has put on a mask and turned into another person. He is in his 30s and could not be more ordinary. If this face is thrown into a crowd, it will disappear immediately.

Yang Shun was very surprised, secretly looking at Li Ye's appearance all the way, he was completely indistinguishable from normal people, which really made him marvel at this disguise.

The streets in Chonghuafang are full of barbarians, all kinds of buildings, leather tents are built directly on many lands, and there is a strong smell of sheep in the air.

When he came to the street where the warrior leader Liu Wutong lived, Yang Shun pointed to the front, "That's the house in the middle, I'll call the door!"

Yang Shun ran over, but was grabbed by Li Ye. He saw a dozen officers with swords walking out of the front door of a house more than ten steps away. Some of them had already arrived first.

Immediately afterwards, Zheng Ang, the censor, came out with a gloomy expression.
