Marquis Pingliang did not expect that Zhang Ren would completely guess his plan.

Although Zhang Ren was just a guess and there was no substantial evidence, but looking at the expressions of everyone around him, Pingliang Hou also knew that Zhang Ren's words had convinced most of the people present. No one would really think about the life and death of a dead soldier in the Hou family. This is the tragedy of the times, but it completely cleared Fu Rang's suspicion.

The plan was broken, and now Pingliang Hou could only vent his frustration on Zhang Ren.

"Shu Zi accepts his fate!" Marquis Pingliang said and attacked Zhang Ren.

Gao Haiyong wanted to step forward to stop him, but he saw Zhang Ren's calm and calm look. This kid knew some kung fu, and although he had not practiced martial arts for a long time, he would not be in danger when facing the Marquis of Pingliang. , Moreover, Gao Haiyong actually hoped in his heart that Pingliang Hou could teach Zhang Ren a lesson. After all, this kid was really rude today.

Facing Pingliang Hou Leiting's attack, Zhang Ren dodged in one step.

Seeing that the blow missed, Marquis Pingliang struck Zhang Ren with a backhand punch.

Zhang Ren had just dodged one blow, but he didn't expect another blow to come. At this moment, he could no longer dodge, so he had to raise his arm to block Pingliang Hou's fist.

Although Zhang Ren was young, his strength was nowhere compared to that of Pingliang Hou, who had experienced many battles. Although the punch was blocked, the strong force from his arm knocked Zhang Ren back several steps.

The Marquis of Pingliang had the upper hand, so he naturally stayed on top, not giving Zhang Ren any chance to breathe.

But at this moment, Zhang Ren was cursing his mother inwardly, feeling dizzy.

Strange to say, ever since Zhang Ren traveled through time, he has suffered from dizziness from time to time. Maybe this is the sequelae of time traveling. This problem is usually insignificant, but at this moment, facing Pingliang Hou's fist as big as a casserole, he felt dizzy from time to time. Can't hide anymore.

Gao Haiyong, who had been paying attention to the battle situation, immediately noticed the change in Zhang Ren's expression. It was enough for Zhang Ren to learn a lesson. He had no intention of letting this junior Jin Yiwei die in the hands of Marquis Pingliang.

Just when Pinglianghou's fist had hit Zhang Ren's face, Gao Haiyong stepped out and stopped Zhang Ren, while holding Pinglianghou's wrist with his other hand.

Gao Haiyong looked coldly and said, "If you dare to take action in front of Jin Yiwei, does the Marquis know the consequences?"

After hearing Gao Haiyong's threat, the Marquis of Pingliang quickly calmed down. It should be noted that many nobles and nobles have died at the hands of Jin Yiwei in recent years. Even if Jin Yiwei is now in decline, he and the Marquis of Pingliang cannot compete with him. Besides, he didn't care about today's matter.

There was no other way. Marquis Pingliang could only sit there angrily and not say anything.

Zhang Ren vomited all the contents of his stomach when he saw the dead body today. He also participated in putting out the fire and spent a lot of time investigating the case. He also attacked the Marquis of Pingliang. Coupled with his own dizziness, his body could no longer support him. Can't live.

Seeing Zhang Ren's pale face, Gao Haiyong immediately asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Next to him, Fu Rang, who had just been cleared of suspicion, also gathered around with concern.

Zhang Ren felt like the world was spinning and his head was dizzy. "The old injury has recurred. I want to go back to Jinyiwei to rest first."

Gao Haiyong nodded, supported Zhang Ren and walked out of the mansion. Of course, he did not forget to give orders to seal off the Pingliang Marquis Mansion and not let anyone in or out. The case will be investigated tomorrow, but Fu Rang had to pity him today. Stayed at the Marquis Mansion in Pingliang.

The reason why Zhang Ren wanted to go back to Jinyiwei to rest was because he was afraid that his uncle would be worried.

Gao Haiyong also followed his instructions and sent Zhang Ren back to Luo Kedi's small courtyard.

Although Luo Kedi was Zhang Ren's master, he didn't seem to care much about his apprentice's life and death. In Zhang Ren's eyes, his master didn't care much about anything except wine.

Fortunately, in addition to the unreliable master, there is also a senior sister in the courtyard.

The senior sister's name is Li Xue. She also has a cold temperament. She practices martial arts very hard every day. She practices simply drawing and sheathing a sword hundreds of times a day. She is also extremely strict with her junior brother Zhang Ren, but Li Xue looked at Zhang Ren's pale face and prepared some food.

Zhang Ren ate a few mouthfuls of food and performed the breathing and breathing exercises a few times before he felt much more comfortable. He lay on the bed and fell asleep without realizing it.

In his sleep, Zhang Ren dreamed back to his past life, and the scenes before the time travel slowly emerged in his mind, including high-rise buildings, subway highways, airplanes and rockets. Slowly, the scenes after the time travel also reappeared in his mind, including sharp-edged war horses, embroidered swords, and arrows. Spring Flying Fish, the past and the future are intertwined after all, everything is like stars in a dream. At this moment, Zhang Ren's soul seems to have truly adapted to this body.

As the saying goes, one thinks about something every day and dreams at night. In the drowsy moment, the picture in Zhang Ren's mind changed again and turned into today's murder case. As his thoughts turned, Zhang Ren's mind flashed and he caught something. .

Zhang Ren's eyes suddenly opened and he was no longer sleepy.

At this moment, he didn't care much anymore, he grabbed the embroidered spring knife beside him and ran towards Gao Haiyong's courtyard.

Like Luo Kedi, Gao Haiyong also has his own small courtyard in Jinyiwei, but the size is not as big as Luo Kedi's. After all, Luo Kedi's official position is above him.

Gao Haiyong is considered a fierce general in Jinyiwei, and his martial arts skills are not to mention, but when it comes to solving crimes, that is not his strong point. But the case has been handed over to him, and he, who is already rigorous and serious, will naturally take it seriously. Therefore, even though it is already midnight, Gao Haiyong is still not sleepy at all. He keeps pacing in the courtyard with the murder case in his mind.

To be honest, Zhang Ren's performance today completely exceeded his expectations. His incompetent apprentice was completely incomparable to Zhang Ren. However, in Gao Haiyong's eyes, no matter how evil Zhang Ren behaved, he was still only a teenager after all. , so Gao Haiyong did not put his hope in solving the case on Zhang Ren.

The sound of a broken door interrupted Gao Haiyong's thoughts. Gao Haiyong looked towards the door of the small courtyard and saw Zhang Ren.

Gao Haiyong looked at the stars in the sky, then at the panting Zhang Ren, and asked: "It's so late at night, why are you here here if you don't have a good rest?"

Zhang Ren circulated his internal energy for a few times, adjusted his breathing, and replied: "Gao Qianhu, I think I should know who the murderer is. Without further delay, let's go to Pingliang Houfu!"



Outside the Pingliang Marquis Mansion, there were many agents from the Criminal Department and the government office. The Imperial City Department also sent soldiers to garrison here, and there were also many people patrolling around.

But inside the Pingliang Marquis Mansion, there was a different scene.

Three people died in the mansion in one day, especially the Marquis of Pingliang. The mansion was supposed to be a place of panic and sadness, but now it seemed extremely quiet. Even the mourning hall that had just been decorated in the evening was like this. Except for the swaying in the wind, With candles and ever-burning lamps, there was no movement in the house, as if everything that happened today had fallen asleep with the coming of night.

In the master bedroom of the mansion, Marquis Pingliang was lying quietly on the bed. He was breathing evenly at this moment, as if he was asleep.

With a "squeak" sound, the door of the bedroom was pushed open from the outside, and a person walked in slowly from the door. This person was dressed in linen and filial piety, and even his face was covered by a white cloth. He followed suit, and his feet seemed to be tied. Lifted a thousand kilograms of heavy objects.

When he reached the bedside, the man reached his hand to his lower back and pulled out a bright long knife from his lower back.

"From now on, you and I owe nothing to each other. Just die!"

With a roar, the man stabbed Pingliang Hou on the bed with the long knife in his hand.

But at this moment, the roof tiles shattered, and the two figures fell into the bedroom along with the tiles.

These two figures are Zhang Ren and Gao Haiyong.

Gao Haiyong had quick eyes and quick hands. He used the handle of the knife to block the knife that was supposed to stab Pingliang Hou. Zhang Ren originally wanted to look cool, but when he landed on the ground, he accidentally stepped on a broken tile and sat on his butt on the ground. He grinned in pain.

When the man wearing hemp and wearing filial piety saw that he missed a hit, he knocked the hilt of Gao Haiyong's knife away with a tilt, and then used his strength to slash towards Pingliang Hou on the bed.

Gao Haiyong took half a step forward and directly reached out to grab the wrist of the man wearing hemp and mourning. The man wearing sackcloth and mourning tried to break away, but he felt a pain in his abdomen. Gao Haiyong kicked him in the lower abdomen, sending him flying far away.

Gao Haiyong shook his head calmly and said: "Since the establishment of Jinyiwei, no one has ever been able to commit murder under Jinyiwei's eyes."

Whether it was Gao Haiyong's actions just now or his rather unruly words, Zhang Ren, who was sitting on the ground, felt handsome. Zhang Ren didn't care about the pain in his butt at this moment and just clapped. Of course, while applauding, he didn't forget to shout "Okay!"

Gao Haiyong's head was full of black lines, and he secretly thought that Zhang Ren was definitely poisonous. This was the arrest scene. Did you think you were watching a show in a theater?

Of course, after the call was completed, Zhang Ren was not idle, but shouted at the top of his lungs: "Come on, the murderer is here, come and help." This guy's brain is really jumpy.

Gao Haiyong said helplessly: "Stop shouting, you are so frightened that it makes my head hurt."

Gao Haiyong said, then glanced at Marquis Pingliang on the bed, and continued: "Marquis Pingliang didn't wake up after such a big movement, and no one from the nursing home showed up. They must have been overturned by the Mongolian sweat medicine."

Zhang Ren turned his head to look at Pingliang Hou who was lying on the bed and still breathing steadily, and thought to himself, no wonder Pingliang Hou Dao is not awake yet. He originally thought that he was too asleep and his feelings were blocked by someone using Mongolian sweat medicine.

Taking advantage of this moment, the man wearing hemp and mourning tore off a piece of white cloth from himself, and tied the knife and his palm tightly together. This was clearly a desperate posture.

Gao Haiyong snorted coldly: "Stubborn!"

The man wearing hemp and wearing filial piety didn't say much. He shouted lowly and raised his knife to strike at Gao Haiyong. This knife is quite powerful. Both the strength and the angle of the slash are well controlled. It will take three to five years to make this knife.

Although this sword is very strong, it also depends on who he is facing. Gao Haiyong is the top master in Jinyiwei. Such a sword seems too simple in Gao Haiyong's eyes.

Gao Haiyong moved. Out of caution and respect for his opponent, the knife in Gao Haiyong's hand was finally unsheathed.

I saw Gao Haiyong stepping forward, lifting the knife in his hand horizontally and raising it above his head, blocking the knife from the man wearing hemp and wearing filial piety.

It was too late, but the force on the knife of the man wearing linen and wearing filial piety had not yet been relieved. Gao Haiyong tilted the tip of the knife behind him, and then took half a step forward. The tip of the knife slipped, and the two people's bodies passed each other. Gao Hai never looked back, and directly stabbed behind him with the handle of the knife, hitting the waist and eyes of the man wearing hemp and mourning.

In just one round, the man wearing hemp and wearing filial piety lost his fighting power and collapsed on the ground, all weak. Gao Haiyong's movements were so smooth that even Zhang Ren was stunned. He was so damn handsome.

Zhang Ren unconsciously clapped again.

The man wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning didn't seem to want to surrender. At this moment, he was slumped on the ground and struggling desperately. Unfortunately, the force of Gao Haiyong's blow just now was really strong. The man wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning could not use up any strength even if he tried his best. Don't say anything at this moment. He couldn't even stand up after raising the knife.

Zhang Ren shook his head at him and said, "Sun Ping, you can't beat Gao Qianhu, why are you working so hard?"
