Chapter 22: Fire (1)
"The assassination of the King of Qin was an order under Li Pu's rule!"
The blood on Soviet Union's neck had scabbed, and he said gasping, "The specific planning and implementation are handled by Senior Brother Liu..."
"I'm all listening to Li Puzhi!" Liu Lianping said quickly, "I will do whatever he says. He asked me to build a shop and let me organize people..."
"Is the shop he designated?" Mao Xiang continued to ask, "Where did the killer come from? Where did the shop you built and the original owner of the rented place go?"
"The owner and landlord of the shop were all killed by Li Puzhi's orders, and the body was transported out of the city for disposal. The shop was designated by him. He told me that as long as I set up a shop there, someone would naturally take the King of Qin over there...
....”
"Wait!" Mao Xiang suddenly frowned, "Someone brought the King of Qin here?"
His initial analysis was correct. The reason why the King of Qin passed there was someone secretly guided it. But who led it? Because among the King of Qin and his group that day, all of them died under the assassin's knife.
.
The dead may also be an insider. If it were Mao Xiang who planned such a thing, the insignificant young soldiers would naturally have to be killed together. Because only the dead can keep the secret.
This also indirectly confirms his other inference that the White Lotus Sect is definitely not alone in the Qin Palace.
"Have Li Puzhi told you why he wanted to assassinate the King of Qin?" He Guangyi suddenly asked.
"I asked him, and I said that assassinating the king in the street was a crime to kill the nine clans!" Soviet Union said hurriedly, "But he just smiled slightly and said that it would be of no harm to us. Why do you say, borrow a chicken to lay eggs?
”
"Where did those assassins escape after failing to assassinate?" Mao Xiang asked.
"I don't know!" Liu Lianping said, "When I heard the news that the assassination of the King of Qin failed, I was still worried that the government would find us. Not long after the incident, Li Puzhi sent someone to pass on the message, saying that we don't have to panic, he had already
Handle it cleanly..."
"Wait!" Mao Xiang stood up, "You mean that the Qin King sent someone to send a message for a while after he was assassinated?" As he said that, he seemed to understand something and asked anxiously, "Ji Le Temple in Mian County
That host, isn't Li Puzhi?"
"No!" Soviet Union swallowed his saliva and shouted, "The host of Jile Temple is He Miusun, the lord of the altar! He is Li Puzhi's personal disciple!"
In an instant, Mao Xiang understood.
He always thought that the abbot of Jile Temple was Li Puzhi!
He Guangyi, who was next to him, also understood and whispered, "Li Puzhi has always been in Xi'an City! We checked the wrong direction!"
"How did he contact you?" Mao Xiang walked over and questioned Liu Lianping condescendingly.
"Flying pigeons send letters, or send someone to come!"
"Who sent?"
"I can recognize him when I meet, but I really don't know what his name is. Every time he comes with Li Puzhi's token..."
He Guangyi pondered for a moment and said to Mao Xiang, "If this is true, there will be such a big disturbance today, and it seems that this line will be broken!
Suddenly, Mao Xiang shouted at Liu Lianping, "You are lying!"
The sound of thunder exploded, and the room suddenly made it silent.
"When things are coming, you won't tell the truth!" Mao Xiang snorted coldly.
"I...no!" Liu Lianping's eyes dodged and did not dare to look at Mao Xiang's eyes.
"He Miushun used Jile Temple as a cover to recruit believers, and Soviet students were responsible for preaching in the outer city. Tian Jiuzheng, the armed forces of your White Lotus Sect, are you responsible for one, right?"
"Because you said just now, you organized the killers who assassinated the King of Qin!"
"I...I......" Liu Lianping's eyes dodged and could not speak.
Mao Xiang squatted down and stared at the other party's eyes, "I'll ask you again, where did the armor and gunpowder in your temple come from?"
"Yes..." Liu Lianping was already panicked and his words were tied.
The Soviet student suddenly shouted, "Who do you have to protect yourself from now on? Tell me quickly, say whatever you know, don't implicate me if you want to die!"
As he said that, he begged for mercy and said, "Sir, I am only responsible for preaching on the outside, and I don't know anything else. Li Puzhi will not let me know such a secret matter. Including me, nine counties around the outer city,
There are twelve incense masters in total, and they all listen to his senior brother Liu..."
He Guangyi's temples leaped wildly, "Twelve incense masters? Who else?" As he said that, he suddenly waved his hand, "Come on, pull him out, and examine!"
"Here!" Several Jinyiwei from outside came in and pulled the crying Soviet Union student out.
He Guangyi looked at Mao Xiang, paused slightly, and followed him out.
~~
Only Mao Xiang and Liu Lianping were left in the room.
"You are lying!" Mao Xiang said lightly.
Liu Lianping lowered his head and said nothing.
"You are still lying when the disaster is coming, why?" Mao Xiang asked quietly.
"I...I didn't lie, I told you all the things I knew!" Liu Lianping whispered.
"You seem to have said a lot, but in fact you didn't say anything useful!" Mao Xiang sneered.
Suddenly, Mao Xiang grabbed the other party's chin and collided with Liu Lianping's eyes.
"You know Liu Baoer, right?"
Mao Xiang noticed that when he said this, Liu Lianping's body shook.
"He's dead!" Mao Xiang continued to grab the other party's chin, "My man found his body in the gutter, and was obviously stabbed to death with a knife in a hurry!"
"No...it's impossible, he keeps..."
"What have you been?" Mao Xiang sneered, "Have you been by Li Puzhi all the time? He has always been the contact between you and Li Puzhi, right?"
Speaking of this, Mao Xiang put down his hand holding the other person's chin, "Your surname is Liu, and Liu Baoer's surname is Liu. Could it be that you are relatives? He is your son?"
"No, it's not your son. If it were your son, how could you bear to let him be a eunuch in the palace? Even if he has no son or grandchildren, is it useful to become a Buddha?"
Liu Lianping's eyes were obviously dull, full of suspicion, "How could he die? I just talked to him that genius..."
"The first time the King of Qin was assassinated, Li Puzhi sent Liu Baoer to send you a message." Mao Xiang smiled, "The message is a message. It is true that the god of the palace left the palace died outside without anyone noticing!"
He laughed, "You probably don't know that after the assassination of Qin, the first thing that comes to mind is to investigate the people in the royal palace, because outsiders cannot know his whereabouts."
"At this moment, the dietary eunuch Liu Baoer suddenly disappeared, and someone found his body in the gutter!"
"Think about it yourself, why Liu Baoer died at that critical moment, and why he deliberately found the body."
"It's because your uncle and your good leader Li Puzhi asked someone to kill him, so all the charges were taken to Liu Baoer!"
"Impossible...Impossible..." Liu Lianping shook his head quickly.
Suddenly, Mao Xiang leaned closer, almost facing each other, "What's impossible to protect yourself?" He said, sneering, "Li Puzhi, is he also a eunuch?"
Liu Lianping's eyes were instantly terrified.
Mao Xiang stood up, "I thought the so-called leader of the White Lotus Sect should also be a grassroots hero with top power and strategy. But now it seems that his actions are full of feminine and petty spirit!"
"If you don't want to say it, there's no need to say it. I won't force it. However, you have to bear the consequences of not saying it!"
"I said, I really said!" Liu Lianping snatched the ground with his head.
~~~
One by one, one terrifying thing was said from the Soviet Union.
The dense cold sweat kept dripping along He Guangyi's temples.
The Jinyiwei in this farm is turning around, and people keep turning over and running around with their horses anxiously.
There are twelve incense masters of the White Lotus Sect hidden in Xi'an and around. Each incense master controls hundreds of believers and the ordnances strictly prohibited by the imperial court.
"This is a peaceful and prosperous era! If it really starts, I am afraid that all the officials in Shaanxi Province will lose their heads!" Even though He Guangyi was knowledgeable, he was frightened.
Because among these incense masters, there are wealthy businessmen, landlords, gangsters, and even officials from the yamen.
At this moment, he found Mao Xiang coming out of the house with a smile.
He Guangyi quickly came over, "Senior, the Soviet Union has recruited him, and the situation is more serious than we think!"
"So what?" Mao Xiang sneered, "It's just to mobilize troops!" As he said, he looked at him and smiled, "This kind of thing is not simple. Whoever you catches and kills, don't ask about the good or bad!"
After saying that, I will take the people away.
"Where are you going to?" He Guangyi asked.
"Your mission is to catch the White Lotus Sect, my mission is to catch the assassin!" Mao Xiang smiled happily, "Of course we are going to catch the person behind the assassination of the King of Qin!" As he said that, patting the other party on the shoulder, "I'm waiting in the palace.
