When he suddenly heard the news of Feng Gu's death, Jiang Wang, who had been through many storms, was shocked beyond words.

Even Zhong Xuan Sheng, who was still drinking porridge carelessly in the courtyard, raised his eyes and looked over.

Feng Gu was the eunuch in charge of the Changsheng Palace. How could he die just like that?

Regardless of his cultivation level, his identity did not allow him to die so easily. Especially, he died at such a sensitive time when the funeral of the Lord of the Palace of Eternal Life had just ended...

The rain of blood of the real people in this world has not yet fallen on the execution ground for a long time!

Jiang Wangcai was stunned for a moment at the entrance of the hospital, then asked: "How did you die?"

Zheng Shangming said: "Three feet of white silk was wrapped around his neck and he was hanged in the mourning hall."

"It can't be suicide, right?" Jiang Wang said.

"I can't tell." Zheng Shangming said cautiously: "It takes careful investigation before we can get the result."

"The time of death was at Zishi, which happened to be the time when the funeral of the Lord of the Changsheng Palace was completely over, and the guests in the Changsheng Palace had dispersed." Lin Youxie added the facts of the case at the side: "Feng Gu's body was hung in the mourning hall, except for the marks on the neck.

Outside, no scars have been found for the time being. There are no traces of alien Daoyuan invasion in the body, and the spirit is very close to natural dissipation. Preliminary look, it is consistent with the appearance of suicide by hanging from a beam."

Jiang Wang was silent for a long time and then said: "This is too ridiculous."

A strong man who could make him feel threatened was actually strangled to death by a three-foot white silk. This in itself was something that subverted logic.

"Why are you looking for Jiang Wang?" Chong Xuansheng came over at this time, and the question went straight to the core: "There are so many famous people in Beiya, so there will never be a shortage of manpower. And Jiang Wang is at a critical moment in his practice...

As the first genius of Daqi, cultivation is the most important thing."

Jiang Wang also cast a questioning look.

After experiencing the ups and downs of Huang Yi's case, he is now very wary of naming names to handle cases.

Although it is not as if I have been afraid of well ropes for ten years, I still have lingering fears for three to five months.

Lin Youxie glanced at Chong Xuan Sheng and said quietly: "Mr. Chong Xuan, it is related to the case. It is inconvenient for you to observe. Please forgive me."

How could Chong Xuansheng be choked so easily? But facing Zheng Shangming's apologetic look, he could only say "hum": "This is my yard!"

The three Qingpai decisively moved to the courtyard where Jiang Wang lived. It was a sign of the tacit understanding and quality among the Qingpai.

Zhong Xuansheng curled his lips in disdain and walked back with his hands behind his back: "Well, not many cases have been solved. The airs are bigger than my face! I don't care to listen! Fourteen, don't you think so?"

Shi Shi didn't say anything, but gently wiped away the porridge particles from the corner of his mouth.

…

…

After entering Jiang Wang's courtyard, Zheng Shangming took out a letter from his arms: "This letter was handed over by a little eunuch who was a groom after Feng Gu died. We have already investigated this little eunuch and he is very clean."

, there’s no problem...Brother Jiang, you’ll know at a glance why I’m looking for you.”

Jiang Wang took the clean letter, took out the letter paper inside, and unfolded it to see several columns of quite straight words.

“I’ve been feeling quite restless lately and often have fears, so I left this book behind.

If I die, it will be murder.

Looking around, there is no one who doubts me. Looking around Beiya, I only believe in Jiang Qingyang.

The old man has a short life, and it is not a pity to die, so the coffin has to be closed. If God has mercy on me, I am willing to hunt down the murderer for this old slave in the Changsheng Palace... Only Jiang Qingyang can supervise the whole process, and under the nine springs, he can be worry-free."

The signature is... "Feng Gu's final calligraphy."

This is a suicide note!

Feng Gu had already foreseen his own death!

Who will kill him?

Why kill him?

After Jiang Wuqi's death, the emperor ordered that the Changsheng Palace should still be preserved. As the de facto head of this palace, Feng Gu needed to have status and strength. Jiang Wuqi's legacy alone was enough for him to live peacefully.

.And why can’t you protect yourself?

After reading this letter, Jiang Wang felt indescribable.

He remembered that when he left the Changsheng Palace that day, Feng Gu said something meaningful in front of the screen wall. He planned to wait until the funeral was over and then take the time to visit the Changsheng Palace to ask about the hidden truth.

Unexpectedly, just after Jiang Wuqi’s funeral, Feng Gu disappeared...

"This case has reached the ears of the emperor." Zheng Shangming said in a very formal tone: "According to Feng Gu's suicide note, Beiya specially asked Jiang Captou to supervise the case to ensure that the case can be advanced in a clean manner.

."

Feng Gu asked for help in the mourning hall that day, but he never dared or forgot this favor.

Fulfilling his last wish so that he will have no worries after his death is also a matter of cleaning up.

Jiang Wang had already agreed in his heart, but he still asked first: "Can I refuse?"

"You are free to refuse or not." Zheng Shangming said: "We are ordered to ask you to supervise the handling of this case, not to order you to join the case."

Jiang Wang asked again: "Brother Zheng is responsible for this case?"

Zheng Shangming said: "Deputy Ambassador Lin and I jointly investigated the case."

"Who is the leader?" Jiang Wang asked.

"It's me for now." Zheng Shangming said.

In other words, judging from the clues they currently have, this case does not rule out the possibility of further expansion.

"Do I have to follow him the whole time?" Jiang Wang asked.

He was a little worried that if this case lasted too long, it would shorten his time for practice.

Zheng Shangming said: "You are supervising this case to take care of Feng Gu's last wish. It is not an appointment given to you by Beiya or anyone else. If you want to join, you can join, and you can stop at any time if you want."

After thinking for a while, he added: "The emperor also said that this matter is up to you."

Jiang Wang asked himself that he had no talent for handling cases. The Emperor also knew this, and so did Beiya. The last time he was named to investigate Huang Yixing, he had a special political background, and Lin Youxie was mainly responsible for the detection of specific cases.

This time, because of Feng Gu's suicide note, he was asked to join the case again, but he was given the status of a supervisor, which could avoid a lot of trouble before and after.

It can be regarded as the care of Beiya, and it also has the approval of the emperor.

After all, the previous case of Huang Yixing did not cause any turmoil in Pingping Country. Only Jiang Wang was hunted down to heaven and earth. Both the emperor and Beiya should feel a little guilty towards Jiang Wang.

Therefore, in this case, he was given maximum autonomy.

Of course, Jiang Qingyang always expressed sympathy with Jiang Wuqi, but now Jiang Wuqi's body is still cold, and the eunuch he trusted most during his life has died unexpectedly. If Jiang Wang is not even willing to supervise the progress of the case, it is hard to say whether the emperor has any ideas in his heart.

Zheng Shangming specifically mentioned the emperor as a reminder.

Jiang Wang thought for a while and then said: "I agree to this matter. When will we set off?"

"Let's go to the Changsheng Palace now." Lin Youxie said.

It seems that in terms of specific investigation, Lin Youxie is still the main one...

Although Jiang Wang deliberately told the housekeeper that Lin Youxie needed to be notified when he came to visit and asked about the purpose of his visit, so as to clearly distinguish the distance between him and Lin Youxie and avoid possible trouble in the future.

But secretly, I admire Lin Youxie very much.

Whether it's her ability to handle cases or her persistence and integrity as a top professional.

The current lineup of investigators is quite interesting.

One is Lin Youxie, a famous arrester who has real information, and the other is the son of the captain of Beiya. It is not known how good he is in handling cases. His family background is probably not much different. The most important thing is his identity, which determines who he is.

It can mobilize most of Beiya's resources.

Plus he has a third-grade official, Jiang Qingyang.

Not to mention that there is no one in Linzi that cannot be investigated, but the space for handling the case is also quite large.

The three of them exchanged a few words, and Jiang Wang had nothing to deal with. He hung a long sword on his waist and followed Xiao Sa out.

It was different to focus on the case. Beiya's carriage was waiting outside the house, picked up the three of them and went straight to the Changsheng Palace.

Qingpai suspension car, smooth flow.

We briefly communicated about the case on the way and then arrived at the palace gate.

Since Feng Gu's body was discovered, the entire Changsheng Palace has been sealed off.

Therefore, the decoration here is still the same as during the funeral, and it is not much different from what Jiang Wang saw when he came to express his condolences that day.

Of course, Jiang Wuqi's coffin has been carried away and buried, and is now in the imperial mausoleum.

At this time, there was no one in the Changsheng Palace. Only a team of green agents were guarding outside the palace gate, not allowing anyone to enter to destroy the clues, and only waiting for the arrival of Zheng Shangming and others who were in charge of the case.

It can also be seen from here that the confidentiality level of this case is very high, otherwise the palace guards should be mobilized to seal the palace gate, instead of being solely responsible for Beiya.

"The guards, eunuchs, and maids in this palace are all being detained in Beiyali and will be questioned separately." Zheng Shangming said, "We can also interrogate them at any time."

The palace, covered in white and hung with frost, is very cold. Even during the day, the autumn sun cannot make people feel the warmth.

Especially the empty place without a soul makes people feel uneasy.

Only Zheng Shangming, Jiang Wang, and Lin Youxie walked into the Changsheng Palace, and the team of gatekeepers still guarded the palace gate.
