The death of a dignified doctor from the Ministry of Finance in Zuichun Tower was not a big deal, not to mention the fact that it also implicated Qin Zhen, the left minister of the Ministry of War.
Sun Yuanji directly took Guo Hui, the fourth-level governor of the Insect Catching Division, away from investigating other matters and pushed him into the intricate entanglement of various forces in Zuichun Tower.
He knew what Mr. Sun meant.
In front of all the dignitaries who were still trapped in Zuichun Tower, after a brief inquiry, they easily came to a conclusion.
Qin Zhen is the most suspicious, and the others have nothing to do with the death of Peng Dongzhi, the doctor in the household department.
Guo Hui stood on the second floor, facing the famous disciples and powerful officials crowded in the lobby, "Everyone, Guo has completed the investigation, and you have nothing to do with this matter. The person with the most motive to assassinate Mr. Peng is Qin Minister, please bear witness to Guo."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Southern Wu had serious power over the military, and the imperial court was more noble than military. Qin Zhen, a minister who had risen from the rank of a soldier step by step, was an upright official and did not like to form gangs. When Guo Hui added insult to injury and wanted to be the first to convict Qin Zhen, no one stood up to speak for Qin Zhen.
As for the Qin Shilang, he had already left Zuichun Tower with Jia Qiuhe.
After a simple cutscene, Guo Hui led the insect catching masters he brought and walked away without even looking at the voluptuous girls with heavy makeup.
Zhang Gang and Wu Que, two middle-aged Confucian scholars who responded enthusiastically to "Qingping Diao", are still in this place of fireworks.
Wu Que, who turned pale, whispered: "Guo Huiguo is as the rumors say."
Zhang Gang stroked his beard and nodded: "There are four envoys in the Zhuchong Division. Pang Hu is a lustful person and is a frequent visitor to Zuichun Tower; Guo Hui is obsessed with power and is focused on promotion; Liang Zhutao is a money-loving person who always handles cases. , must do everything possible to get gold and silver; Jiang Xin only cares about martial arts, and he is a disciple of Buddhism. He often abandons cases and goes deep into ancient temples to visit eminent monks."
"Hey, the characters of the four of them are ridiculous."
"Brother Wu, how confident do you think you are about what I mentioned just now?"
Wu Que glanced at the excited and shouting eldest son of the Liu family not far away, and said with a smile: "The eldest son of the Liu family is dead. I don't know how furious that old Buddha is."
"You and I are from Xianggong Liu, and it was Xianggong Liu who facilitated his appointment as an official. Even if he died in Zuichun Tower, no one can stop us from leaving Beijing to take up our posts!"
Russian qing.
Wu Que smiled and said, "Just give me the order."
Zhang Gang called to the servants who were waiting for them, and taking advantage of the confusion, he quickly whispered a few words, and then said: "Let's go, you and I visit the young man. It would be a pity not to fight for such a young prodigy."
The two got up and walked to the second floor.
Ask the maid to inform Kou Xiaowan that Zhang Gang and Wu Que are visiting Shen Li together.
The maid replied that the young man had been in Yuzi Pavilion for more than half an hour.
"Haha... The young man's talent is earth-shattering, and it's natural for Lady Yu to be fascinated by him."
"It doesn't matter, we are not related to the young man. We have listened to an excellent poem today and we are already satisfied. Why should we force it anymore? We should go back to our respective homes to prepare for our appointment."
Talking and laughing, the two of them blended into the crowd leaving Zuichun Tower and disappeared without a trace.
In less than a moment, the eldest son of the Liu family, who was calling the servants of the Liu family to go home, was suddenly hit by a woman. When the woman pushed him away, she saw that the eldest son of the Liu family had a dagger stuck in his heart, and the dagger was deep. Stab deep into the heart.
The woman didn't give the master who was protecting him any time, withdrew the dagger and cut her own throat with her backhand.
In an instant.
The eldest son of the Liu family's Lafayette was easily assassinated in Zuichun Tower.
The remaining guests were in an uproar.
Wen Jiuniang, who was extremely busy, walked through the crowd of onlookers and saw that the eldest son of the Liu family was dead. She was stunned on the spot. When the servants woke her up, Wen Jiuniang said in a sharp voice: "Have someone guard the door and no one is allowed to leave!! Send someone immediately Notify Liu Mansion!"
Shen Li came out of Yuzi Pavilion and saw this scene with Yu Bainiang, who was in a daze.
Yu Bainiang tried her best to suppress her chaotic thoughts, "The old Buddha of the Liu family has two sons. The eldest son, Liu Ce, appears to be a wild man, but in fact he has all kinds of good tricks. The old Buddha wants to hand over the Liu family to him. Now Liu Ce is dead. Zui Chun Tower, Lafayette must be full of resentment, and with his influence in Kaixi City, he will definitely shake the earth and the sky."
She looked worriedly at Chen Liuyao, the angry boy, "Someone must be adding fuel to the flames. This will make things even more difficult."
Shen Li forced a smile and said, "Sister Yu, if this matter only reaches a difficult level, it won't count as death."
"..."
Song Wanru also came out of Kouzi Pavilion and saw him talking to Yubainiang side by side, looking like a talented man and a beautiful lady.
His hands shook angrily.
In public, you can't twist his ears.
I had to work hard and endure it.
Yu Bainiang got closer to him, almost whispering: "Can Mr. Shen guess who killed Liu Ce?"
"I don't know. Only in the end can we see the clues. Whoever benefits the most will be the murderer." Shen Li said.
Yubainiang suppressed her question and said what she had thought of: "If the matter proposed by Mr. Shen comes true, I am willing to remain anonymous and serve only Mr. Shen."
Even when facing the Minister of Rites, she would only address him as "I" and not "concubine".
Shen Li's heart moved, and then he smiled bitterly.
After assassinating Wang Chunfu, the Minister of Rites, he walked step by step into the whirlpool. Now even if he wanted to get away, it was impossible. He simply muddied the water and opened his eyes wide to see who the big shots were that set up this game.
"Sister Yu, please go back to your room." He said.
Yubainiang couldn't help but beg again: "I am definitely not a joke..."
Shen Li nodded, then shook his head, without giving her a reassuring reply.
This oiran, who was so stunningly beautiful that the big and small dignitaries in Kaixi City flocked to her, returned to Yuzi Pavilion with Chen Liuyao full of worries.
He came to Song Wanru's side laughing and joking.
"roll."
"Good sister, you are too cold and heartless."
"roll."
Ignoring the maid's strange gaze, Shen Li took her Rou Yi, half dragged her back to Kou Zi Pavilion, closed the door, "Sister Song, I know what you want to ask, and to tell you the truth, even if Yu Bainiang stripped naked and stood there, In front of me, I don't even look at you, because my heart has already been filled by Sister Song."
It has to be said that this brat has a way with sweet words, and Song Wanru is the master who surrendered as soon as she heard his sweet talk.
He changed his expressionless, cold and angry look, stretched out his hands to twist his ears, and said harshly: "You kid really doesn't take me seriously, how dare you secretly steal your love for me, Yubai, in front of me?" Whisper!!”
"Oh, oh! My dear sister, don't twist it, it hurts. She just explained the identity of the deceased. The eldest son of the Liu family Lafayette actually died here. As a foreigner, I feel that there will be strong winds and heavy rains in Kaixi City. Got it!!”
"Don't change the subject! Tell me honestly, what did you say to Yubainiang after entering Yuzi Pavilion?! What did you do!!!"
