When everyone heard this, they all looked shocked.
It had only been an hour since I learned about the assassination of Marquis Wen.
How did Gao Yi find out who the murderer was?
"Someone, bring the murderer out."
Immediately, two guards came and threw a bloody corpse in front of everyone.
Surprisingly, it was Wei Xu's body.
"Gao Yi, you are really a despicable and shameless person. Who knows that your father and son have a grudge against Wei Xu? Now you not only assassinated him, but you also dared to impose the crime of murdering Marquis Wen on him."
"Today, even if I, Song Xian, fight to the death, I will definitely kill you to honor Brother Wei."
Facing the furious Song Xian.
Gao Yi showed disdain. "General Song, don't talk nonsense."
"There is another person who killed Wei Xu. When I found this body, many guards in the mansion saw it and can testify for me."
Song Xian and Hou Cheng still refused to give up. "Gao Yi, are you fooling the ghost?"
"You little brat, you're so bad! I think it's probably you who did it."
Everyone in the hall looked like they were watching the excitement and didn't mind the trouble, and turned into a crowd of people eating melons.
After all, everyone knows that Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng usually form cliques for personal gain, creating a mess in the army.
Now that Wei Xu, who was the leader, was killed, the remaining Song Xian and Hou Cheng must avenge him.
Look at the situation where the war is about to break out.
Suddenly there was a cold snort outside the door.
"Who is so powerful that he actually threatened to kill my son Gao Shun?"
Looking for the reputation, a burly man who looked like a towering pagoda outside the door was the first to catch everyone's eyes.
Behind him were dozens of burly warriors wearing sharp armor.
Looking at Gao Shun who suddenly appeared.
Song Xian and Hou Cheng both trembled, feeling powerless in their hearts, and hurriedly said with a smile:
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! Brother Gao, don't misunderstand. It was just a joke between us and nephew Ling Xian! Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously."
Seeing that Song Xian and Hou Cheng had the good sense to give in, Gao Yi continued his discussion.
"Just half an hour ago, when I learned the news that Marquis Wen was assassinated, I felt like I was struck by lightning!"
"At that time, I only had one thought in my mind: I must cut the thief into pieces to repay Marquis Wen for his cultivation over the years."
"Then, I went to ask the guards who were on duty last night to investigate who entered the mansion last night."
"According to the guards, Wei Xu went to visit Marquis Wen last night, but no one saw Wei Xu leaving the house..."
Before Gao Yi finished speaking, Song Xian couldn't sit still. He looked at Gao Shun, who was like an iron tower next to him, with a look of fear on his face, and asked softly:
"Nephew Gao Xian, even if no one sees Wei Xu walking out of the mansion, it doesn't mean that he is the murderer of Marquis Wen, right?"
The corners of Gao Yi's lips curled up slightly, a spring-like smile appeared, and he slightly clasped his fists at everyone.
"Based on this matter alone, I dare not say that Wei Xu is the murderer. It's just that... I found another evidence on him."
After saying this, Gao Yi walked towards Wei Xu's body, under the surprised eyes of everyone.
He tore off Wei Xu's coat.
Wei Xu's upper body was exposed naked to everyone.
"Everyone, please see that Wei Xu has no injuries on his body, except for a heavy punch mark on his chest. If I ask the martial arts in the world, I am afraid that only Wen Hou, who is born with supernatural power, can kill Wei Xu with one punch."
"More importantly, I also found a dagger stained with black blood in Wei Xu's clothes."
"It must be Wei Xu, the thief. Coveting the huge reward offered by Cao Cao, he took advantage of Marquis Wen's trust in him and secretly poisoned him. Then he took advantage of Marquis Wen's poison to attack him with a dagger."
"It's just that Wei Xu's dog thief underestimated Marquis Wen's fierce fighting power, and was punched in the chest by Marquis Wen before he died. Then the thief died while escaping at night!"
When everyone heard what Gao Yi said, they all felt that what Gao Yi said was reasonable and well-founded.
Even Song Xian and Hou Cheng were speechless.
"Ah! Wei Xu is a thief, my father treats you sincerely, but you used a vicious trick to assassinate my handsome father."
Lu Lingqi frowned, the tears in her eyes finally couldn't stop leaking, and she roared at the top of her lungs.
Looking at Lu Lingqi's helpless and pitiful appearance.
Gao Yi sighed, walked slowly to Lu Lingqi, and comforted her:
"Lingqi, although Wei Xu is dead now, his body is still there. If he dares to assassinate Marquis Wen, I will make him regret coming to this world."
"The guards obeyed the order and dragged the body of Wei Xu's dog thief to the backyard to feed the dogs to pay homage to the heroic spirit of Marquis Wen."
Wait until Wei Xu's body is dragged out.
Lu Lingqi looked like a little daughter and sobbed softly to Gao Yi next to her: "Brother Gao! Thank you. Fortunately, you are here, otherwise I wouldn't know..."
Gao Yi sighed slightly and said sadly: "Marquis Wen has been as kind as a mountain to me, how can I just sit idly by and watch."
Before she finished speaking, Lu Lingqi couldn't hide her sadness and threw herself directly into Gao Yi's arms. The tears in her eyes seemed to be free of money, like big beads and small beads falling on a jade plate.
The crying pear blossoms bring rain, which makes people pity.
Feeling the extremely perfect shape of the ball crashing into his arms, Gao Yi felt dizzy and a little confused.
Although it is said: My fair lady, the gentleman has a good game!
But hitting someone with the ball is rude after all!
Gao Yi wanted to remind her, but when he saw the beautiful woman in his arms looking pitiful and weeping, he finally couldn't bear to remind her.
Even Gao Yi thoughtfully stretched out a hand, gently rubbed it back and forth on that exquisitely curved and perfect body, and said comfortingly:
"Although Marquis Wen is gone, my high righteousness is still there."
"In the future, Lingqi, don't worry. I, Gao Yi, will definitely take good care of you orphans and widowed mothers, and will never let you be harmed in the slightest by others."
When everyone saw this, they didn't feel any sense of violation.
After all, everyone knows that Gao Yi and Lu Lingqi have been childhood sweethearts since childhood.
If Marquis Wen hadn't listened to the slander and blocked it, the two would have gotten married long ago.
Now that Marquis Wen is dead, who will be able to take care of the affairs between young lovers?
…
By the time Lu Bu's funeral arrangements were completed, it was already noon.
Now that Cao Cao's army is besieging the city, none of the generals dared to stay in Wenhou's Mansion for too long.
After everyone said goodbye, they returned to their posts and prepared to perform their duties.
On the way home, Song Xian and Hou Cheng were confused.
He felt more and more that Wei Xu's plot to harm Marquis Wen, although seemingly reasonable, was extremely absurd.
Based on the relationship between the three of them, even if Wei Xuzhen planned to kill Lu Bu and Kaicheng surrender, he would secretly inform them.
Moreover, they and Wei Xu were brothers and sisters on weekdays. Now that Wei Xu's plot to murder Marquis Wen was revealed, even the body was fed to the dogs.
From now on, the two of them are weak and will definitely be squeezed and suppressed by other generals.
"Brother Song, do we have to sit back and wait for death?"
"I, Hou Cheng, don't want to live my life looking at other people's faces from now on."
"Why don't we gather the troops tomorrow night and leave the city to surrender to Cao Sikong during the night?"
"It is said that Cao Sikong appreciates heroes who understand current affairs the most, and there are many generals in Cao's camp."
Song Xian thought for a moment and took a deep breath.
"That's all! That's all! A good bird chooses a tree to roost in, and a good minister chooses his master to do his work. So I, Song Xian, rebelled with Brother Hou."
"In a moment, I will write a letter and send an envoy to Cao Ying to explain to Duke Cao about the dedication of the city."
