Jiang Qiulu's eyes wandered wildly among the names on the booklet.

Finally, Jiang Qiulu's eyes suddenly focused on a few words.

Unknown warrior.

Then three words were added at the end - Prime Minister's Mansion.

"What does this unknown warrior mean?" Jiang Qiulu asked.

"Your Majesty, we at the Zhenfu Department have no news about this person."

"According to our people, after he entered Prince Yong's Mansion, he left shortly after."

"Then, our people followed secretly and found that he entered the Prime Minister's Mansion again." Di Yunhao replied.

"Prime Minister's Mansion, Guo Xiaosen."

"Hmph, things are getting interesting." Jiang Qiulu sneered.

Jiang Qiulu thought that this matter must not be simple.

If it is confirmed that this unknown warrior is really from the Prime Minister's Mansion, then the Zhenfu Division can capture Guo Xiaosen and King Yong together.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qiulu immediately ordered.

"Send an order and send people to surround the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Don't let anyone out!"

Subsequently, the Zhenfu Division received Jiang Qiulu's order, and a large number of royal guards surrounded the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Zhang Ying and his men strode into the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The guards at the door didn't dare to stop him.

Seeing Zhang Ying coming, Guo Xiaosen immediately stood up.

"I don't know why Governor Zhang Zhen mobilized troops and mobilized people like this?"

Zhang Ying saw that there was no fear or nervous expression on Guo Xiaosen's face, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"Xiang Guo, according to sources."

"Your people went to Prince Yong's Mansion last night."

"So I would like to ask, where is this person?" Zhang Ying got straight to the point and asked the question directly.

But at this time, Guo Xiaosen smiled.

"What a quick news, Ambassador Zhang Zhen."

"However, my people often come in and out of Prince Yong's Mansion to deal with government affairs with Prince Yong."

"If Ambassador Zhang is here to investigate yesterday's murder case, then he must be looking in the wrong place." Guo Xiaosen said.

Zhang Ying sneered.

"Hmph, where did Mr. Guo start with these words?"

"I haven't asked any questions yet, but Prime Minister Guo wants to put aside the relationship."

"Is it possible that Guo Xiang has a ghost in his heart and is afraid?" Zhang Ying said coldly.

Guo Xiaosen's face changed slightly, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

But it soon changed back to its original expression.

"Chief Zhang Zhen was joking."

"Well, since Ambassador Zhang Zhen wants to investigate, the people in my Prime Minister's Mansion will cooperate."

"It would be bad if this hurts the harmony." Guo Xiaosen said.

Afterwards, Guo Xiaosen called the guards and servants who had been to Prince Yong's Mansion last night.

"This is naturally the best." Zhang Ying said.

The next moment, Jin Yiwei's people began to look at these people carefully.

After looking around, Jin Yiwei turned around and looked at Zhang Ying.

Then he shook his head.

Zhang Ying's face immediately darkened.

"Mr. Guo, are you sure these are the only people?" Zhang Ying said.

"That's right, that's all." Guo Xiaosen said expressionlessly.

"Isn't it right?"

"According to reports from our Zhenfu Division, a man who looks like a warrior has entered Prince Yong's Mansion."

"Then he entered Prime Minister Guo's house."

"Don't Prime Minister Guo know this warrior?" Zhang Ying asked.

Guo Xiaosen felt a little uneasy.

Unexpectedly, Zhenfusi actually knew that his people had been to Prince Yong's Mansion, and saw Wang Wanjie returning to him from Prince Yong's Mansion.

Looking at Zhang Ying's expression, if he couldn't give a reasonable explanation.

Then he will invite himself to Zhenfu Sizhong for tea.

"Haha, it turns out that the person Zhang Zhenfu asked was my nephew." Guo Xiaosen said with a smile.

"Nephew?" Zhang Ying frowned and looked at Guo Xiaosen with confusion.

Zhang Ying was also dubious about Guo Xiaosen's words.

"That's right."

"He is a distant nephew of mine who has some kung fu skills."

"You came to see me yesterday, hoping to find an official position in Kyoto City."

"I don't have any use for him here, so I thought about asking him to go to King Yong to see if there are any unnecessary errands."

"However, King Yong thought his kung fu was not good enough, so he refused."

"Searching for a job was fruitless. My nephew left Kyoto City early this morning."

Guo Xiaosen's nonsense really sounded like that.

But Zhang Ying still didn't dare to believe Guo Xiaosen's words.

Regarding this situation, Zhang Ying felt that Guo Xiaosen was most likely lying, but he could not provide any evidence.

"As the head of a hundred officials, Prime Minister Guo doesn't even help his nephew?" Zhang Ying said.

"The rules in Kyoto are so strict."

"Don't say he is a nephew, even if he is a son, if he does not have enough talent, I will not let him hold any official position in Kyoto City."

Guo Xiaosen said righteously, so much that he was moved.

"Oh well."

"In that case, let's leave." Zhang Ying glanced around the room and then said.

"Then I won't give it away." Guo Xiaosen smiled.

After Zhang Ying led the people away, a sinister expression appeared on Guo Xiaosen's face.

At the same time, Guo Xiaosen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thanks to the prince's reminder, otherwise, if Wang Wanjie is really recognized, everyone will lose their heads!" said a guard.

Guo Xiaosen nodded with some fear.

Just this morning, after Chen Fei went to Prince Yong's Mansion, Prince Yong immediately sent someone to notify Guo Xiaosen.

It was said that Wang Wanjie should leave Kyoto City immediately, the sooner the better, without any stop.

Fortunately, Wang Wanjie walked fast enough and Zhenfusi didn't touch him.

But in the city of Kyoto, Wang Wanjie has no chance of coming back.

If Wang Wanjie is arrested, then everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion, as well as Prince Yong's Mansion, will be subject to scrutiny.

Moreover, Prince Yong’s Mansion and the Prime Minister’s Mansion jointly planned that incident.

If found out, all nine clans will be directly implicated and beheaded.

In Taiji Hall, Zhang Ying informed Jiang Qiulu about the incident.

"Humph, what nephew?"

"Guo Xiaosen's actions will only make everyone more suspicious of him!" Jiang Qiulu said sharply.

"Your Majesty, we don't have any clues now. Is there any irrefutable evidence against him?"

"We have no way to catch him." Zhang Ying said.

Afterwards, Jiang Qiulu and Zhang Ying fell into silence.

After a while, Zhang Ying raised his head with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, it's better to do this."

"Even if he didn't do this, it still has a lot to do with him."

"We will arrest the person first, then torture him severely, and finally slowly investigate." Zhang Ying said quickly.

"No!" Jiang Qiulu refused.

"If this is the case, Zhenfusi will turn from a benevolent teacher into a minion."

"This should never be done without evidence."

In order to prevent the tragedy of that era, Jiang Qiulu did not grant them this privilege.

You must first obtain evidence or witnesses before you can order an arrest.
