"How did that person contact you?"
Zhidu's face was extremely gloomy.
"Replying to your lord, I don't know how to contact them, but three days ago, a whole family suddenly disappeared without a trace, and there was an extra letter on the stove at home. Sir, please read it!"
While kowtowing, Wang Laoqi took out an envelope from his arms and handed it to Zhi Du.
After reading the contents of the letter, Zhidu's face finally looked a little better. At least this guy was not doing it for money. For the sake of his wife and children, it was understandable that he would do such a thing.
"Okay, now it's time to show off your abilities. I want to know how he died!"
For the sake of his wife and children, Liu Deng thinks that no matter what he does, it is understandable. At least at this time, he has no intention of pursuing it.
"His Majesty the King gives you a chance, you can take care of it yourself!"
Seeing that Liu Deng had no intention of pursuing the matter, the corners of Zhidu's mouth twitched and he hesitated before continuing.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Your Majesty!"
Wang Laoqi suddenly felt like he was surviving a disaster, and he didn't dare to hide it anymore. After wiping the sweat from his forehead, he looked at each other with his apprentice.
Then he stood up and began to mutter something while observing the corpse.
The young apprentice standing aside started recording quickly with a pen and paper in his hand. In less than a cup of tea, a complete inspection report had been produced.
"So according to your statement, He Junan was already dead before he touched him?"
After reading what they handed over, Liu Deng frowned and asked.
"Yes, it is indeed the case, His Highness the King is wise!"
Wang Laoqi quickly flattered him.
"Come on, go to his house and catch that shrew for me!"
The dignified Tingwei was actually tortured by a shrew all day today, and Zhidu was naturally very angry.
"I think Master Zhidu should investigate carefully and find out who gave them such courage! In that case, I will not delay your investigation!"
After having a breakthrough, this matter suddenly became much easier to handle. Liu Deng probably understood in his heart that the man in white was most likely to have something to do with this matter. But with his clever methods, why did he do it deliberately? Why leave such an obvious flaw for yourself?
This really made Liu Deng a little puzzled.
However, thinking of the appointment made today for tomorrow, Liu Deng felt a little more hopeful.
With this guy's arrogance, maybe he will actually show up tomorrow.
But what happened next really disappointed Liu Deng.
Early the next morning, he arrived at Hu's old store early, but the man in white didn't appear again until sunset.
Clues were found out from the Tingwei Mansion's office, and the Chang'an County government office was also bribed.
By the time the officials from Tingwei Mansion came to the door, the deceased's house was already empty.
This incident made a big fuss for a while, but it reminded Liu Deng that there were indeed people in Chang'an City who were keeping an eye on him.
In any case, He Junan suffered a disaster this time.
Originally, Liu Deng was planning to keep them all to have a wedding drink in Chang'an City before leaving, but now that something like this happened, he didn't dare to let them delay any longer.
On the third day after He Junan was released from prison, Liu Deng directly ordered them all to rush back to Jinyang.
Fortunately, in the following period, it seemed that all the masterminds behind the scenes had disappeared.
The eighth day of the eighth lunar month is a good time for groundbreaking, divination, sacrifices, and marriages.
It was a rare good day, and it was also the wedding date chosen by the emperor for Liu Deng.
Whether Liu Deng is willing or not, he must marry two wives at once today.
Of course, due to the defeat of the Huns, Princess Yana naturally lost her qualifications as a queen and could only become a second-level Madam Ru.
They even skipped the wedding process and were placed directly in Liu Deng's mansion, waiting for Liu Deng to lead a long team to marry Dou Muyao from the Dou family, and then be sent directly to the bridal chamber.
The emperor put a lot of thought into this wedding.
Just the selection of candidates for the wedding team made the emperor very troubled.
In order to gather a team for Liu Deng's wedding, the emperor personally ordered the entire Jinwu Guard to carefully select 800 soldiers who were almost identical in height, short, fat and thin.
Even the war horses they ride on are all Hun horses selected from the army and have the same coat color!
As for the wedding money scattered on the way to the bride's wedding, the money supervisor near Chang'an was specially ordered to cast it in a furnace!
The carriage used to welcome the bride is the emperor's carriage, and all the carriages are used according to the specifications of the current prince.
Everything can be said to have given Liu Deng enough face!
As for the Dou family, in order to match Liu Deng's stance, they proudly brought 800 pieces of red silk to pave the road!
From the gate of Dou's house, he rushed all the way to the gate of Liu Deng's house.
There was even a running water table set up outside the gates of the Dou family and Liu Deng's palace. Anyone who came to say congratulations could get a reward and enjoy a delicious meal.
In order to prepare enough ingredients, they almost wiped out all the meat around Chang'an.
For this wedding, the entire court spent a lot of effort. There were detailed time specifications for how long each ceremony took, when it started and when it ended.
Before dawn in the morning, Liu Deng was called out. First, he had to take a bath and change clothes, then wash up and dress up. The maids and eunuchs sent by the palace toiled for more than an hour.
Liu Deng could barely cope with the first round. The next step was to worship his ancestors. Naturally, he had to tell his ancestors about such a good thing today.
Liu Deng yawned all the way and led the long team around to the Ancestral Temple, and then returned to the palace again when the sky was bright.
Then there was a series of etiquette. Although he ate a lot of strange things this time, there was still a growl in Liu Deng's stomach.
"Your Majesty, this is for you to eat on the way!"
When no one was paying attention, Dou Zhong hurriedly handed a small oil paper bag to Liu Deng.
Feeling the warmth coming from the oil paper bag, Liu Deng almost shed tears.
My majesty, Your Majesty the King, has actually fallen to the point where you have to eat chicken drumsticks secretly today!
"Your Highness, the auspicious time has come, shall we set off?"
Before Dou Zhong finished speaking, Wang Hui, the officiant of today's wedding, walked over with a smile on his face.
"Uh...Okay! Okay!"
The corner of Liu Deng's mouth twitched, and he quickly and quietly hid the oil paper bag in his sleeve.
"Set off!"
