The last thing Jiang Wuqi did before his death was to use his body as bait to wipe out the spies of the Ping Dynasty in Qi State.
Li Yougui in the Divine Realm, Yan Tu in the Dongzhen Realm...all were cleared.
With such wisdom and courage, what kind of enemy cannot be defeated?
Why did he remain silent and why didn’t he avenge his mother’s murder?
The cold poison enters his life, why doesn't he snow?
Even more, why did Gongsun Yu leave on New Year’s Eve last year?
The paradox is that...
Jiang Wu gave up and said nothing, while Gongsun Yu cut off his tongue and said nothing.
Why did Feng Gu end up dying to force him to discover the truth?
Jiang Wang thought hard, and he vaguely felt that he was very close to the clue. But it was like seeing flowers in the fog, there was always a layer between him.
what is it then?
Jiang Wuqi, Feng Gu, Gongsun Yu, Yang Jing...
Gongsun Yu...cut off his tongue!
A person who cannot speak is said to be "dumb".
The door that had been stuck in my mind for a long time suddenly opened.
Among the confusing clues, one suddenly became clear and stood out in front of my eyes.
Jiang Wang turned around and went out, immediately asked the housekeeper to prepare the car, and rushed directly to the Changsheng Palace.
He wished he could fly there directly, but in a place like Linzi and at such a delicate time, he had to follow some rules.
My heart was already racing like a galloping horse. In the gentle carriage, Jiang Wang's expression remained calm.
The more anxious you are, the more quiet you need.
Be calm and able to maintain oneself without losing one's original intention.
He even gave up all distractions and started practicing.
In the practice of Taoism, time always passes leisurely.
The Changsheng Palace is not far away and it didn’t take long to get there.
Jiang Wang felt that he had calmed down and lifted the curtain and got out of the car.
Go straight to the Palace of Eternal Life.
"Sir, according to the rules, someone must accompany you before you can go in." The leading Qingpai police officer quickly blocked the way.
A new batch of green police officers guarding the Changsheng Palace have been replaced. Of course, all the green police officers in Linzi know Jiang Wang. Even if they have not seen him in person, they should have seen his portrait. Although
Responsibilities lie, but they are also respectful.
“Then you accompany me in.” Jiang Wang said directly.
The leading detective shook his head: "None of us are qualified to enter the Palace of Eternal Life."
Jiang Wang, who was focused on the clues, suddenly remembered that during the blockade of Changsheng Palace, which was the scene of the crime, only he, Lin Youxie, and Zheng Shangming, the three green cards responsible for the case, could solve the case.
Enter.
You cannot enter alone yet, at least two people must supervise each other.
Of course, he is fully capable of sneaking into the Changsheng Palace quietly, and he is expected to be undetected by these policemen. But in such a chaotic time, there is no need to do anything bad.
Sometimes the “shortcut” right in front of you is the “long road” with extremely twists and turns.
If you sneak into the Changsheng Palace quietly, no matter what evidence you get in the end, it will no longer be credible.
"Go and invite Zheng Shangming." Jiang Wang directly ordered: "Just say that I will ask him to accompany me to collect evidence. If Zheng Shangming is not here, Deputy Lin Youxie Lin can also do it. In short, whoever you see first, you can invite. I'm here
Wait here."
With his current weight, in the Qingpai system, there are very few people who don't buy it. Not to mention that there are faint rumors that he will take over as the captain of Beiya.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a green-branded policeman sped away and went to Beiya to ask for help.
Jiang Wangze stood outside the palace gate. After a while, his soul sank into the sea and he began to practice.
Although time is short, it is wasted in waiting, but there is always some benefit in practicing.
When Zheng Shangming hurried over, Jiang Wang just opened his eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Zheng Shangming asked.
Jiang Wang just said: "Go in and talk."
Of the three people responsible for the case, two were present at the same time, and the palace door of the Changsheng Palace was opened.
This palace has become increasingly deserted, and its popularity has completely disappeared.
Jiang Wang had a clear goal and walked directly to the screen wall with the images of all living beings painted on it.
“Have you discovered anything new?” Zheng Shangming asked again.
Jiang Wang stood in front of the screen wall and carefully looked at the mural left by Jiang Wuqi without saying a word.
Zheng Shangming also fell silent.
There are too many characters and too complicated scenes in this picture of living beings, which almost includes all of Jiang Wuqi’s observations on “people”.
Anyone who looks at it carefully can notice how extraordinary it is.
But if there are any clues hidden in it, there are so many clues and a "key" is necessary to get them.
Jiang Wang has been wondering if he has missed any clues. He has studied this mural repeatedly before. But it was not until he thought of Gongsun Yu's severed tongue today that he suddenly made the connection.
In this picture of living beings, let alone those with sound limbs, there are blind people talking endlessly to the deaf, deaf people gesticulating to the blind, and smellless people fishing by the river...
It can be said to depict all living beings.
But as the saying goes, "Deafness, blindness, carbuncle, and muteness are the result of four deficiencies" (yong), Jiang Wuqi painted the appearances of all living beings. Since he has deafness, blindness, and carbuncle, how could he miss a "dumb" one?
The answer is actually very simple. The place where the mute should be is Jiang Wuqi's "mute", which is his unspoken words!
The location where the mute should be was easy to find, and Jiang Wuqi didn't hide it too deep on purpose.
Divide this map of living beings into nine palaces.
The deaf and blind men are in the lower left corner of this painting, located in Gen Palace.
The person with carbuncle is in the Duigong in the middle on the right side. A small river runs from Duigong to Qiangong and passes through the outside of the painting. On the river bank, farmers are carrying dung and walking, while the person with carbuncle is fishing with a pole.
Based on the positions of the deaf and blind people in the entire painting, the corresponding location of the deaf person should be the direction of the palace, which is the middle position of the upper layer of the painting.
In this place, what is painted is a barren mountain, with rolling mountains extending out of the picture.
Looking specifically at the location of the person with the carbuncle, the exact corresponding location is on a barren mountain...
A lonely grave!
This is an inconspicuous solitary grave. Of course Jiang Wang had seen it before, but he only passed by it in a hurry.
At this time, I locked this position and looked carefully, and then I noticed the tombstone in front of the grave. There were only four words engraved on it.
Different from any epitaph format.
These four words are what Jiang Wuqi wanted to say.
What is engraved is
“The deceased is gone.”
Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment.
In his analysis, it seems that Gongsun Yu cut his tongue not only to cut off the truth of that year, but also to hint at the answer left by Jiang Wuqi on the screen wall.
His muteness itself is a key.
Therefore, Jiang Wang took it for granted that Jiang Wuqi hid the truth of the important case here.
But Jiang Wuqi just left his choice here...
This is the tomb of Concubine Lei...
And the words "The deceased is gone" on the tombstone are Jiang Wuqi's choice, and it is also his dissuade to those who pursue the truth to this point.
The mute person not drawn is Jiang Wuqi himself.
He painted all living beings in one painting and told too many stories. When it was his turn, he only said "that's it"...
Jiang Wang didn’t know what to say.
The assassination case that year led to the death of Concubine Lei Guifei, which caused Jiang Wuqi to suffer from cold poison when he was born. Of course, it also led to the death of the famous arrester Lin Kuang and Lin Youxie's phobia.
The huge whirlpool it created is still sucking in human lives seventeen years later.
He gave up the position of Captain of Beiya that was easily available and chose the word truth. He also wanted to thank Jiang Wuqi for his heroic sympathy and seek the truth for him.
But Jiang Wuqi had already found out the truth of the case.
His Royal Highness, the Eleventh Highness, chose to remain silent.
This can also explain why Gongsun Yu left the Changsheng Palace and why he told Yang Jing, "I'm afraid it's hard to stop talking."
I think Gongsun Yu was one of the important members who investigated the truth at that time. After learning the truth, Jiang Wuqi chose to remain silent and asked everyone to keep it secret.
Gongsun Yu was worried that he could not keep the secret, so he took the initiative to cut out his tongue and retired to Biwu County at a young age.
What truth needs to be this way?
The truth...
what exactly is it?
In addition, Jiang Wang also clarified another key issue.
Feng Gu used suicide to trace old cases, which was indeed not Jiang Wuqi's decision.
It was more of Feng Gu’s own decision.
Feng Gu is indeed loyal to Jiang Wuqi, but as a living person, he also has his own independent will.
He said that Jiang Wuqi had gotten what he wanted, which was not false. He said that he had not gotten what he wanted, and that was also true.
Jiang Wuqi chose to remain silent.
And he wanted Zhang Ming.
Why did he make a different choice from Jiang Wuqi?
The answer to this question may no longer be known after his death.
Maybe it’s because he is still worried about Concubine Lei’s death, or maybe he has given up after Jiang Wuqi’s death and doesn’t want to think about the political situation anymore...
In short, this is what happened.
What Jiang Wang needs to consider is
Do we still want to explore the truth now?
The person who suffered the most from the assassination of Concubine Lei and is most qualified to pursue the case has already made his choice!
“This painting is very complex and very vivid.” Zheng Shangming asked at this time: “Are there any clues you want in it?”
“You’ve seen it too, haven’t you?” Jiang Wang asked back.
Zheng Shangming shook his head: "I don't understand."
Perhaps he meant that he did not understand the painting. Perhaps he meant that he did not understand Jiang Wuqi's choice.
In short, regarding the truth about the assassination of Concubine Lei, after Jiang Wang rejected the position of Beiya Captain, he would no longer share it with Jiang Wang.
The reason why Jiang Wang came to the Changsheng Palace today without hiding it from Zheng Shangming, and even took the initiative to ask Zheng Shangming to accompany him, was because he knew that he could not hide it. When he came to the Changsheng Palace, Zheng Shangming would definitely follow him, so he simply acted openly and did not hide anything.
“Have you decided who will take over as the captain of Beiya?” Jiang Wang asked.
Zheng Shangming gave a bitter smile: "How much power do you think my father has? This matter can be decided by us behind closed doors after a few discussions? We are looking for you because you can sit in this position, because you are Jiang Qingyang
.Do you think whoever I name can be the one?"
Jiang Wang didn’t believe that Zheng Shihui had no alternative. How could such a person who knew how to play the Qing Pai system and was so comfortable in Linzi bet all his money on one person?
In the end, he rejected the position of Captain of Bei Ya, and his friendship with Zheng Shangming ceased to be just ordinary friends.
"gone!"
Jiang Wang turned around and walked out.
“Aren’t you looking at other places?” Zheng Shangming asked as he walked behind.
“No need.” Jiang Wang said, “There is only one last key to unlocking the truth.”
“I thought only Chong Xuan Sheng likes to play riddles. Why don’t you learn from me?”
Zheng Shangming's tone was relaxed. Maybe he was sure that Jiang Wang couldn't get the last key, or maybe he was closer to the truth.
In short, what he is more worried about now is who will bridge the power vacuum between him and his father.
Those who are not powerful cannot be appointed as the captain of Bei Ya, but those who are too powerful usually have too much ambition. It is not impossible to turn around and kick him away when he gets to the position, and not give him a chance to take over.
The two of them only stayed in the Palace of Eternal Life for a short period of time. Even when they saw the team of policemen outside the palace gate, the second topic was not over yet.
This period of time is also very long, long enough for another Qingpai policeman who reported the news to rush outside the Changsheng Palace.
“Mr. Zheng, the latest news!”
Zheng Shangming quickly stepped forward, took the urgent letter from the green agent's hand, opened it and took a look.
After a brief pause, he forwarded the letter to Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang was very curious. There was no need to hide the urgent news. He took it and opened it.
“Resigned arrester Uriel was confirmed dead. His body was found in the waters near Haimen Island and has been rushed back to Linzi.”
Uriel is dead...
Uriel died like this?
At this point, the "Nanwu Beilin", which was once famous and famous in the Eastern Region, has become empty.
Jiang Wang was surprisingly not surprised by the news of Uriel's death.
As early as he knew that Uriel was investigating the Osawada clan alone, and that Tian Huanwen had already attacked Uriel, Jiang Wang had a vague feeling that this day would come.
The path Uriel took was a road of no return.
As the person said, life and death have long been ignored.
It’s just that Jiang Wang didn’t expect that it would come so suddenly.
So many years have passed.
We have survived many storms and waves, only to fall just when the truth is about to surface.
“Who will pick up the body?” Zheng Shangming asked.
Then quickly replied: "Yang Wei and President Yang went to pick it up in person, Master Du Cainer welcomed the coffin in Beiyi."
Urlie devoted most of his life to the Qingpai system and only left Qingpai after Lin Kuang's death. His contribution to the Qingpai system and Beiya can never be erased.
Yang Wei went to greet the body with deputy inspection envoys like Yang Wei who held the real power, and the captain of Beiya personally guarded the inspector's house to welcome the coffin, which was what he should have done.
Even though strictly speaking, Uriel has been out of office for many years and there is no green card around his waist, but who can deny that he is a totem-like existence in the green card system?
The so-called catching the god Yue Leng, in front of him, is just a laggard.
To this day, there are too many rules in Qingpai's handling of cases, all set by people of Uriel's generation. There are too many methods of handling cases that have been inherited from the old days. Among them, the two great arresters, Uriel and Lin Kuang, have the greatest influence.
Ulie and Lin Kuang are equally famous, and Ulie is much older than Lin Kuang. The two have been close friends for many years, and can be said to be both teachers and friends.
Relatively speaking, Uriel also has a higher status in the Qingpai system.
The Inspection Office must express a sufficient attitude towards Uriel's death. All those who have a green badge on their waist must express sufficient respect for Uriel himself.
This is not even about personal emotions, but a kind of inheritance of past history.
Zheng Shangming looked at Jiang Wang with a complicated tone: "Let's go, let's go to Beiya and wait."
“It’s time to wait,” Jiang Wang said.
Yet he knew.
The clues about Gu Xing on Bajiao Island...should be broken.
In other words, he and Lin Youxie lost the last key to the truth.
