Chapter 1353: The clue may be in Chang'an

Di Renjie walked into the courtyard of the government office, from the door to the yard where Xuan Shijing lived, and there were three steps, one stairs and five steps. There were people patrolling the yard with long swords at all times. After entering the yard, he saw Chang Le personally guarding the door of the room.

"Chang Le." Di Renjie greeted Chang Le.

"Mr. Di? Why are you here?" Chang Le asked.

"I came here to investigate the case according to His Majesty's will." Di Renjie said.

"Check the assassination case of His Highness King E and his grandfather?" Chang Le said.

Di Renjie nodded: "That's right, I heard from the guard at the door tell me that my mentor hasn't woken up yet?"

Chang Le sighed: "Yes, a lot of blood has shed. The doctor said that he would probably wake up at noon tomorrow at the latest. If he couldn't wake up, it would be dangerous."

"How much do you know about the situation at that time?" Di Renjie asked.

Di Renjie chatted with Chang Le and asked questions without any concerns, so Di Renjie took the lead in asking Chang Le.

Chang Le shook his head: "I don't know the specific one, because Gao Jun and I were not with the prince that day. The prince went out of Chang'an City with His Highness E, so there were only the two of them. He was going to go back to the village, but something happened to happen to be a halfway point. Maybe the person who sent the assassin happened to know that there were only two of them on the way, and they didn't bring weapons or entourage, so he chose to take action at this time, right?"

When Di Renjie heard this, he frowned.

"What kind of survivors have the government caught?" Di Renjie asked.

"I caught it and locked up in a cell. I originally sent a doctor to treat them, but after I got to the cell, they all committed suicide. After the doctor opened their mouths, they found that they were hiding poison in their mouths. After being arrested, they committed suicide by taking poison." Chang Le said.

"It seems that these people must be the dead soldiers raised by someone's family." Di Renjie said.

It is the most difficult to check for people like this because it is simply difficult to find any clues from them.

"What I mean, if it weren't for the dead soldiers raised, who would dare to chase Duke Qi and King E down to assassinate him? Your Highness King E has entered the government office, and he dares to attack the government office." Chang Le said.

Now, it's trouble.

Di Renjie frowned.

The assassin left no living mouth. Who should I go there for this matter?

Wannian County is the place of the crime, and Di Renjie came to the place of the crime as soon as possible, which is also correct. However, after coming, he found that it was the place of the crime, but it could not bring him any clues to solve the case. Maybe the clues were in Chang'an instead.

Because Duke Qi and His Highness E left Chang'an and were assassinated.

In other words, when they left Chang'an, someone in Chang'an City stared at them, knowing that they were leaving alone, with only two people and no guards, so they felt that this was an opportunity to attack them.

Di Renjie suddenly woke up.

"Fan Cheng, hurry back to Chang'an City and set off from Chang'an City to the village in Dongshan County. You must have walked through several city gates on the east side. Send people to these city gates to inquire about the situation that day. In addition, especially the city gates closest to Daozhengfang, remember that you cannot let go of any clues. Record them all and send them to my official."

"Yes!" Fan Cheng bowed and responded.

"Zhengqing, you go back with Fan Cheng. I will trouble you with some news about the officials in Chang'an City." Di Renjie said.

"Yes, don't worry, sir." Xu Zhengqing replied.

As for Di Renjie, he wanted to stay here for a while. If he wanted to wait for Xuan Shijing to wake up, he had to ask more people involved in this matter.

As for the other party involved, he had been taken back to the palace by His Majesty and protected, he would not easily see it.

Jinyang was still in Xuan Shijing's room where he was recuperating. Xuan Shijing's dressing and scrubbing were all done by her. Half a day passed, and only the eyelids in Xuan Shijing's middle were moving, indicating that he was still alive and had never opened his eyes until now.

All the soup and porridge were fed into Jinyang spoonful at a time.

According to the doctor, Xuan Shijing's body is now too blood-lost, which is too weak and has damaged his vitality. He needs to replenish it well and raise it for a while. This is not something that can be effective in a day or two. It is better to be patient.

The door was knocked.

"Come in." Jinyang said.

The door was pushed open by Chang Le. Chang Le stood at the door and said, "Your Highness, Lord Di is here."

"Well, let him come in." Jinyang said.

When he heard Di Renjie came, Jinyang knew what Di Renjie was here to do. It must have been sent by the emperor brother to investigate the case. One prince and the other prince. In such a case, there is no other person in the Tang Dynasty who is better suited to investigate the case.

Jinyang was also relieved about Di Renjie's investigation of the case.

"I have met Princess Jinyang." Di Renjie walked into the room and bowed.

"Mr. Di doesn't need to be polite." Jin Yang said, "Mr. Di is here to investigate the case, right?"

"Yes, I also want to see my mentor's injuries." Di Renjie said.

"My husband hasn't woken up yet." Jinyang said: "My husband Di must wait a moment if he wants to talk to his husband. However, taking advantage of this time, Master Di can go to find the county magistrate of Wannian County, and the emperor's brother also issued an order here. If the officials he appointed came here to investigate the case, the county magistrate of Wannian County will definitely cooperate."

"Yes, thank you Your Highness." Di Renjie bowed and said, "If this happens, I will go to the county magistrate first and talk about it."

Di Renjie entered the room and met Princess Jinyang, so that Princess Jinyang knew that she was here to investigate the case. In this way, when Xuan Shijing woke up, he would be able to get the news as soon as he woke up.

Since Di Renjie thought of the clues in Chang'an City, he felt that Wannian County might not have found out anything, and the assassins caught by the county government have committed suicide by taking poison. The only clue that they can get is that they must be dead soldiers raised by a noble family in Chang'an City.

If you can know the whereabouts of Xuan Shijing and Li Jue, you must be from Chang'an City.

Although the scope seems to be narrowing, it is not easy to check it out.

There are so many noble officials in Chang'an City, and it is still a little difficult to find them.

The county magistrate is still in the government office. Although there are assassins in Wannian County, these assassins have nothing to do with the people. The county magistrate of Wannian County has to continue to deal with the trivial matters he has at hand. Although it is trivial matters, it does not dare to be careless about the people.

"Sir, Lord Di from Dali Temple has arrived."

A serviceman came in outside the lobby to report.
