Zhang Weigu and Ling Boer failed to assassinate Jiang Chun and fled.
Du Zhenghai was confused about their purpose and couldn't help but frowned and said: "Strange, why did they suddenly appear here? Why did they want to kill Jiang Chun?..."
Ling Yun also frowned; he put his hand on his forehead, as if talking to Du Zhenghai, or talking to himself, "Ever since Li Ruiyun bloodbathed Feiyun Villa, the whereabouts of these two people have been unknown, and now they are suddenly here He showed up here and wanted to harm Brother Jiang..."
At this point, he suddenly realized something. His originally cold and distant expression suddenly changed, and he blurted out: "By the way, Brother Jiang!..."
The two rushed to Jiang Chun. I saw him lying on the ground, twitching all over, cold sweat dripping down his forehead; his face was gloomy, with a terrible livid color; his eyes seemed to have lost all their brilliance, and they were so dim that they had no foundation at all. Sexy, that expression is extremely scary.
Seeing his situation, a terrible thought flashed through Ling Yun's mind, and he immediately felt a biting coldness sweeping through his limbs and bones at lightning speed.
He held Jiang Chun's limp body tightly with both arms and shouted hurriedly: "Brother Jiang! Brother Jiang! What's wrong with you?..."
Jiang Chun closed his eyes slightly, and his whole body slumped against Ling Yun's chest as if he had no bones. A trace of blood spilled from the corner of his pale lips, and he said with a weak breath: "I... heard what you just said. In fact, these two people have surrendered a long time ago. He joined the Tianxiao organization and is now working as a guard martial artist in Ding Jin's Mansion. Qiuyue and I fell into their tricks... and were captured back to Ding Mansion..."
Ling Yun lowered his eyebrows and said thoughtfully: "So, Ding Jinzhi really colluded with people from the Tianxiao organization?"
If this assumption is true, then the following things can be easily explained: Jiang Chun was once Tian Xiao's "rebellion", and he abducted Ding Jinzhi's prospective daughter-in-law Lu Qiuyue that day, becoming the common enemy of Tian Xiao and Ding Jinzhi; now Ding It is not surprising that Jinzhi sent Zhang Weigu and Ling Boer to kill him.
Jiang Chun suddenly groaned in pain. Almost in the blink of an eye, his lips turned a deep purple and his gums turned black, which looked extremely horrifying.
Ling Yun's heart sank and he said repeatedly: "Brother Jiang! Brother Jiang!..."
Jiang Chun's head felt dizzy, his chest felt heavy, and he felt like vomiting; he took a breath and said, "I'm afraid... I can't survive..."
Ling Yun's heart twitched painfully, and gradually shrank into a ball; a forced smile appeared on his face, and he said in a voice: "Don't talk nonsense, you just suffered a little injury on your leg, you will be fine! Come on, I'll Bandage it for you."
Jiang Chun felt that his vision was blurry. He shook his head feebly and said angrily: "No, it's useless...I..." He suddenly opened his mouth, and another mouthful of purple-black bloody phlegm spilled out.
Ling Yun was in a state of confusion and said: "Brother Jiang!..."
A clear look suddenly flashed across Jiang Chun's gloomy eyes, and he said intermittently: "It's probably... that the wine was poisonous..."
"The wine is poisonous?..." Ling Yun was confused.
Jiang Chun then said slowly: "Brother Ling, promise me that after I die, you will take good care of Qiu Yue for me... Never let her know about my death... Promise me, promise me..."
Ling Yun choked and said: "Brother Jiang, don't say stupid things, you will be fine!...Brother Jiang!...Brother Jiang!..."
no response. Ling Yun put a trembling hand on his nose. He was no longer breathing.
Ling Yun felt cold all over, and everything in front of him seemed to be shaking. He silently held Jiang Chun's body, which was getting colder, as if he was stupid, and remained speechless for a long time.
Du Zhenghai looked at Ling Yun's numb state of pain, and couldn't help but let out a helpless sigh in his heart. He slowly stepped forward and comforted him softly: "People cannot be resurrected after death. This is the end of the matter. Pain is useless. Don't be too sad."
Ling Yun's eyes were scarlet and he said dullly: "I promised Miss Lu to ensure that he leaves safely. I feel sorry for them."
Du Zhenghai said: "Actually, you have tried your best. Besides, I can't blame you for this matter. I can only blame some people for being too despicable."
Ling Yun was startled, "What did you say?"
Du Zhenghai said: "What am I saying? Didn't you hear what Jiang Chun said before he died? He said the wine was poisonous - you can think about it, he was there before the accident, what kind of poisonous wine do you think he drank? ?”
Ling Yun's heart trembled and he said numbly: "He should have been in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice all the time before, and Mr. Lu also arranged for Mr. Xu to drink practice wine with him..."
Du Zhenghai said: "That's right, Lu Wenzheng must have asked Xu Zhi to poison his wine. I think this poison should be a chronic poison that will take effect after a while, so Jiang Chun will After reaching the city, he got poisoned and died."
"You are talking nonsense!..." Ling Yun said excitedly, "You are not allowed to slander Mr. Lu!"
Du Zhenghai raised his chin slightly and said in a cold voice: "Why should I slander him? The facts are in front of us, and you still refuse to admit it?
"Didn't you just say that Jiang Chun has been in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice these days? After leaving the house today, he only met Zhang Weigu and Ling Bo'er. During the fight, he only had Ling Bo'er hit in the leg. A sword, come and take a look, there is no poison on this sword; and his sword wound is not fatal - why do you think he died?"
Ling Yun's face turned pale and he murmured: "It's impossible, it's impossible... Why would Mr. Lu want to harm him?"
Du Zhenghai said: "It's very simple. You and I are very clear about the relationship between Jiang Chun and Lu Qiuyue - now that Miss Lu has married into Ding Mansion, there is no guarantee that Jiang Chun will not forget his old love and go to Ding Mansion to find her again.
"If something happens again, wouldn't it embarrass Mr. Lu? Therefore, for the sake of his dignity and dignity as the Minister of Punishment, and to avoid many unnecessary troubles, this is the only way he can do it once and for all."
Ling Yun pursed his lips tightly and said angrily: "Stop talking! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
Du Zhenghai said: "You're welcome, so what, but I still have to say it! Look at Jiang Chun's appearance after he died. His face is blue, his lips are purple, his gums are blue and black, and his mouth is bleeding. These are clearly signs of poisoning. .You said he didn’t die from drinking poisonous wine from your Ministry of Punishment, Shangshufu, so what’s going on?
"Ling Yun, I know you feel sad and conflicted. You can't believe Master Lu would do such a thing, but that's the truth! If you still don't believe all this, you can go back to your house and check if Jiang Chun has drunk The cups and vessels for the wine.”
Ling Yun's face was dark, an unprecedented sadness and anger was entangled in his heart, and his chest was so suffocated that he could hardly breathe. He just stared at him fiercely, his lips almost bleeding from the bite; but his body stood motionless like a dead tree without any life.
A sarcastic sneer appeared on Du Zhenghai's lips, "Why don't you go? You don't dare to confirm all this, and you don't dare to accept this cruel fact, right?"
"Shut up!..." A thin blush appeared at the end of Ling Yun's eyes, and his cold eyes like ink jade were filled with layers of ripples. In anger, he raised his hand and drew his sword. The sword flew away, and with a swipe, the cold tip of the sword reached Du Zhenghai's chest.
Du Zhenghai glanced over with disdain with his narrow eyes, smiled casually and said: "If you think killing me can vent your anger, then go ahead!"
Ling Yun's hand holding the sword was trembling slightly, and countless complex and painful emotions alternated on his face; finally he sighed, dropped the sword bitterly, and walked away...
In Lu Wenzheng's study in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Justice.
Mr. Lu was reviewing official documents, with Xu Zhi and Yang Zhen standing on both sides. At this time, Tong'er Rong'er came to report: "Sir, Commander Ling is outside asking to see you."
"Commander Ling?..." Lu Wenzheng was startled for a moment. Too many things had happened to Ling Yun these days. It seemed that he had not visited him for a long time as per his duties in the mansion.
Today, Lu Wenzheng suddenly asked for a meeting, which made Lu Wenzheng a little confused. He pondered for a moment and said, "Let him come in."
After a moment, Ling Yun walked in from outside step by step.
There was a stern expression on his handsome face, and his wet and misty eyes were filled with scarlet bloodshot eyes, and a stormy storm seemed to be brewing deep in his eyes.
Seeing Ling Yun's abnormal expression, Lu Wenzheng couldn't help but trembled in his heart and said in surprise: "Commander Ling, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
Ling Yun said: "I'm here to report something to you, sir."
"Oh, what's the matter?"
"Jiang Chun is dead."
"What, Jiang Chun is dead?..." Lu Wenzheng was shocked and said: "How did he die?"
Ling Yun looked directly at the other party, his pupils were like black obsidian, and there seemed to be dark green fireworks burning inside; he said almost word by word: "I still want to ask your Excellency, how did Jiang Chun die? …”
Lu Wenzheng frowned slightly, his expression changed several times, and his whole face showed a complex color that was difficult to identify; gradually, everything seemed to calm down, leaving only a trace of deep thinking, as thick as fog, almost covering his entire face. Everyone was shrouded tightly.
Looking at Mr. Lu's extremely embarrassed look, Yang Zhen couldn't help but said: "Brother Ling, how can you speak to Mr. Lu with such an attitude?"
Ling Yun ignored him and just said: "I have brought Jiang Chun's body back; when Mr. Xu was practicing for him, I also checked the cup he used. The poison in the cup was consistent with the poison in his body." The poison is the same poison - now I just ask you to give me a reasonable explanation."
Lu Wenzheng finally recovered from the silence, sighed heavily and said: "Commander Ling, I know what you are thinking, you must be suspecting that I ordered someone to poison the wine, right?
"There are no outsiders in this room. I can guarantee with my own personality that Jiang Chun was indeed not killed by anyone from me! As for the cause of his death, I will definitely send someone to investigate clearly and give you a reasonable explanation. "
Ling Yun said indifferently: "Okay, I'm just waiting for the answer to this mystery to be revealed."
As he spoke, he bowed to Lu Wenzheng, then turned around and walked away, leaving only a lonely and indifferent figure behind...
