Chapter 172 The Mansion of the Marquis of God
Yang Ning frowned. He had heard of the name Shenhou Mansion several times. According to the information he received, Shenhou Mansion is a very special yamen, mainly representing the court to handle affairs in the rivers and lakes. Such yamen is unique and unique, quite mysterious.
I just didn't expect to meet someone from the Shenhou Mansion tonight.
But thinking about it, if such a strange thing happened in the capital, the Kyoto Mansion would of course report the matter to the Shenhou Mansion. It is natural that the Shenhou Mansion will send someone to investigate the matter.
"Since you are from the Shenhou Mansion, you are naturally experts in investigating cases." Yang Ning put away his knife and said lightly: "I have heard that there are quite some experts in the Shenhou Mansion. When I saw him today, it was a disappointment."
The man sneered: "You don't need to use any means, you can't escape tonight."
"I ask you, where do you judge it from when you say I kill someone?" Yang Ning glanced at the woman, "Although the Shenhou Mansion handles affairs in the martial arts world, it is the court of the court after all. I think there should be a set of laws and regulations. Without evidence, how can we easily convict people?"
"Evidence?" the woman snorted coldly, "You didn't kill the person, why were you at the scene of the crime? You were covered in blood and you were about to run away just now when you saw me. If you weren't feeling guilty, why would you run away?"
Yang Ning frowned and said, "Girl, before you finished your three words, you concluded that I was the murderer and you still have to attack me. If I don't run away, are you still waiting for you to kill me?" He snorted coldly and said, "Because I was at the scene of the crime, I am the murderer. Don't you think this logic is ridiculous? Do I say that when I came through this place and found strange things, and when I entered the alley and saw the corpse, it was not considered self-defense testimony?"
The woman said, "You said you were passing through this place? You passed by this place in the middle of the night?"
Yang Ning waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I won't tell you anymore. Since you don't believe it, you can take me to the Shenhou Mansion first and find two experienced people to investigate."
"Would you surrender?"
"Don't say it so badly." Yang Ning sighed: "I said girl, are you a novice? Why did I find that you are very unfamiliar with handling cases?"
The girl said annoyedly, "Stop talking nonsense, hand over the knife and go back to the yamen with us."
When Yang Ning saw these two guys with a cold face, he knew that he could not explain the truth with them for a while. He wanted to reveal his identity as Marquis of Jinyi, but seeing this, even if he showed his identity, these two guys would not believe it. Since that is the case, it would be better to just go to the Marquis of Shen's Mansion with them.
Since the Shenhou Mansion handles affairs in the martial arts world for the court, it is naturally not an ordinary yamen. There are only a few smart and capable people. At least Ximen Wuhen, the leader of the Shenhou Mansion, is not a person who is indistinguishable from right and wrong. It is hard to explain clearly to these two guys, so it is better to go to the Shenhou Mansion to find other people to explain clearly.
He threw the cold blade over, and the woman reached out to catch it. Yang Ning sneered: "Be careful, this knife is worth a thousand gold. If there is any damage, I'm afraid you can't afford it."
The woman didn't speak, and put away the cold blade.
Yang Ning thought of the guard and said, "By the way, I have a companion there, so I can't be left here. Since I want to go to the Shenhou Mansion, he will also take it there."
"So there are still friends." The man said, "Junior sister, where is his friends? Let's catch them together." Although his tone was calm, Yang Ning keenly noticed that there was a faint sense of unconcealed excitement.
Yang Ning's heart was as bright as a mirror. The Divine Marquis Mansion must have been chasing the blood-sucking Bronze General recently, but he was never able to capture it. Tonight, these two guys thought they had captured the real murderer. If this was the case, they would have made great contributions. No wonder the man was so excited.
From this we can also see that neither of these two are veterans.
Yang Ning followed the two of them back. The man saw the corpse and squatted forward and checked it. Yang Ning saw that he was very quick to check it. He knew that this guy was indeed trained. When he stood up, Yang Ning suddenly stared at him and said, "You are the murderer!"
The man was stunned and then said angrily: "What did you say?"
"I said you are the murderer." Yang Ning smiled faintly: "You are also at the crime scene now, and your hands are covered with blood, so of course you are also the murderer."
The man clenched his fists, stepped forward two steps, and sternly said: "Say it again!"
Yang Ning only saw clearly that this man was only in his early twenties and looked pretty, but he was young and full of energy.
"Seventh Brother, don't talk to him." The woman turned her head, looked at Yang Ning, pointed to the guard who was leaning against the wall not far away and said, "You go carry him away!"
Yang Ning shook his head and said, "No!"
The seventh senior brother said angrily again: "Do whatever you want to do, and talk about it, why don't you go quickly."
Yang Ning said lightly: "I promised to go back to trial with you. Before the result is obtained, I am not a criminal, at most a suspect. You are not my boss, nor are you your slaves. Of course you have no right to give orders to me."
Senior Brother Seven was stunned and turned around to look at the woman.
The junior sister hesitated for a moment before saying, "If you don't carry him, would we carry him away?"
"You also said that he is my accomplice. Since you think I am a suspect, my accomplice will certainly not escape." Yang Ning said: "If you leave him alone, that is to shelter the criminals. Since you want to arrest people, of course you are trying to take them back. What reason is there to ask me to help you arrest people?"
Senior Brother Seven was a little confused by Yang Ning's words, and couldn't help but say, "Little Junior Sister, what he said seems to make sense."
The junior sister snorted coldly and said, "Since it makes sense, you can carry him back."
"Me?" Senior Brother Seven was stunned, "But!"
The junior sister said, "What? You don't want to?"
Senior Brother Seven seemed to be very afraid of the junior sister, so he had no choice but to put away the knife and walked forward and lifted the guard.
Senior Brother Seven was in front, and the junior sister asked Yang Ning to follow Senior Brother Seven, and she followed Yang Ning with a long whip in her hand, staring at her, guarding against Yang Ning's tricks.
After walking for half an hour, I arrived at a quiet long street and walked along a gray-white courtyard wall to the main entrance. I saw two stone lions with claws in front of the door. The dark gate looked dark and dark at night. There was a guard dressed like a junior sister standing on the left and right in front of the door. There was a plaque hanging on the front of the door, with three gilded characters "Shenhou Mansion".
When Yang Ning saw the Shenhou Mansion, he thought that before, he only thought that the Shenhou Mansion was so grand, but now it seems that it is very ordinary.
When he entered the mansion, the junior sister had already said, "Seventh Brother, please lock up that person first, I will take this for interrogation." Without saying much, he urged Yang Ning to turn around in the mansion. There were not many lights at night in the Shenhou Mansion, so it seemed very cold and dim. When he entered a side courtyard, the lights were on in the house. The junior sister let Yang Ning enter the house. As soon as he entered the house, a strange smell spread from the house to his nose.
Yang Ning looked around and saw that the room was very spacious, but wherever he saw it, there were all kinds of torture instruments, which was shocking.
In the middle of the house, there was a quite old wooden table with a lamp on the table. Two men were lying on the table to sleep. The junior sister coughed, and one of them woke up immediately. He looked up and saw the junior sister, hurriedly pushed his companion, stood up, and said in unison: "Is the junior sister back?" Then they all turned their eyes to Yang Ning. Seeing Yang Ning's brocade clothes and jade belts, even carrying his hands on his back, looking around, I couldn't help but be very curious, and I didn't know what Yang Ning came from.
The junior sister walked up, took off her hat, and took off her purple cloak. Then she turned around and said to Yang Ning: "Come here!"
Yang Ning walked by with a smile on his face. Under the light, he saw clearly that the junior sister was wearing a green open-clad brocade robe with black thin-soled boots under her feet. Her skin was white and her appearance was very beautiful. Although she was a woman, her eyebrows were not as thin as willow leaves as ordinary women. Instead, they were a little thick. They were inserted slanted into her temples. Her bright eyes were as cold as autumn water, giving people a sense of heroic, cool, clean and neatness.
This young junior sister looks only sixteen or seventeen years old, but her expression looks quite mature.
"Sit down!" The junior sister pointed to the opposite side and signaled Yang Ning to sit down on a small stool opposite, but she sat down on a big chair. After Yang Ning sat down on the opposite side, the junior sister said coldly: "I'll ask you, answer, if you dare to deceive, you will also see how many torture instruments there are. Since you know the Shenhou Mansion, of course you also know that the Shenhou Mansion will never be polite to those who are playing tricks."
Yang Ning smiled faintly and said, "Can I make a request before the interrogation?"
"Request?" the junior sister frowned, "This is the Shenhou Mansion. You are on trial now, not where you made the request."
Yang Ning sighed: "If you want to interrogate me, I always have to answer questions, but I am now dry and twitchy. How can I explain honestly?"
The junior sister thought for a while before saying to someone next to her: "Give him some water."
One person went to get water, and the remaining one walked to the junior sister, stared at Yang Ning, and asked in confusion: "Little sister, what is this case? What did this person commit?"
"He is the blood-sucking guy." The junior sister said angrily: "There have been several deaths in his hands. Fortunately, I will catch them tonight. Otherwise, if it spreads out at this time, it will definitely make the people in the capital panic."
The man was stunned, looked at Yang Ning for a few glances, and said in surprise: "Little Junior Sister, are you saying true? This guy is the blood-sucking monster?" He looked suspicious, obviously not convinced.
Yang Ning laughed and said, "I said, the Shenhou Mansion is not all confused, but still a little sensible." He smiled at the man and said, "I said, brother, do you think I am like a criminal who kills and sucks blood?"
Before the man answered, the junior sister had already said coldly: "This is the Shenhou Mansion, not a place where you smile, don't laugh."
