The three of them walked quickly and arrived at Zuo Sima Mansion in no time.
Standing under the dozens of stone stairs in front of the gate, Han Fei and the other two glanced at Liu Yi's mansion.
"Your official residences in South Korea are really big!" Gu Xun looked at the spacious Sima Mansion in front of him, tilted his head and said to Han Fei beside him.
"Haha!" Han Fei sneered twice and explained: "The Zuo Sima Mansion given to me by my father was not that big."
"Liu Yi bought the surrounding land and expanded it."
"The scale of his residence has seriously exceeded the limit. It is larger than the ancestral residence of Prime Minister Zhang. The only ones larger than this in the entire Xinzheng City are my father's palace, Ji Wuye's General's Palace, and Bai Yifei.
There are only three places in the Marquis Mansion, and even General Shen, the real Sima, is not as good as him."
"So your father is really outrageous, and it doesn't matter!" Gu Xun dissed Han Wangan.
Han Fei shrugged and said helplessly:
"My father lives in a deep palace, and the things he can know are very limited. What's more, many people are blocking his sight and hearing. This situation... is really normal."
On the stone steps, two teams of Imperial Guards holding halberds were neatly lined up, standing at both ends of the steps.
When the two Imperial Guards guarding the front saw Han Fei approaching, they hurriedly bowed and saluted, "I've met the Ninth Young Master."
Strictly speaking, the Forbidden Army is equivalent to the private army of the royal family. They may not recognize all the high-ranking officials in South Korea, but they know all the direct descendants of the royal family, and Han Fei has been gaining momentum recently and has a high reputation.
Han Fei heard this, waved his robe, and corrected him solemnly:
"I'm an official now, so please call me Lord Sikou."
"Yes, I have met Lord Sikou." Naturally, the Imperial Army had no objection to this request, and just shouted as ordered.
Gu Xun, who was a few steps behind, couldn't help but shook his head speechlessly when he saw the arrogant high-ranking official in him.
Zhang Liang on the other side couldn't help but sigh silently when he saw this.
Then the three of them walked up dozens of steps and truly entered Zuo Sima's mansion.
After entering, there is a large square, surrounded by various buildings, water pavilions and pavilions, which are extremely luxurious. However, it is very empty at this time, with almost no people, only the Imperial Guards standing guard.
Han Fei casually pulled over a forbidden soldier and asked him to find a servant who knew the situation.
Gu Xun looked at the house carefully now and couldn't help but nod his head - the internal structure is good!
"Mrs. Zuo Sima passed away not long ago, and now Zuo Sima is also dead. What will happen to this mansion next?"
Han Fei didn't expect that Gu Xun would care about such an inexplicable problem. He was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and replied:
"This house is supposed to be returned to the national treasury and will be rewarded to meritorious ministers in the future."
"Why, Brother Gu is interested in this Zuo Sima Mansion? If so, I can help you to help you pay for it."
"No need." Gu Xun directly raised his hand to express his gratitude.
No one else will stay in Xinzheng for long. If they don’t have time to buy such a big house, it will be all in vain if it is destroyed by war.
However, he secretly decided that when he arrived in Xianyang, he would definitely buy an equally luxurious mansion.
While chatting, the Imperial Guard also came over with a servant.
"Sir... ah no, Lord Siko, we are here. He knows the best about what happened last night. He was also the one who discovered Lord Zuo Sima's body."
"Well... very good, you can go about your business." Han Fei waved his hand and sent the imperial troops back to stand guard. Then he ordered the servants in front of him, "Lead the way and lead me to see where Master Liu was killed.
."
"Yes, sir, please come this way."
After crossing the square and bypassing the main hall, the servant led Han Fei and others to the place where Liu Yi's body was found - his study.
After entering, Gu Xun found that Liu Yi's body was still lying on the floor, with his back facing the sky and his fat belly pointing towards the roof.
"Didn't you collect Mr. Liu's body?" Han Fei was a little surprised to see that the crime scene was so complete.
He thought the body should have been put away long ago.
"This..." the servant explained hesitantly, "Now there is no master who can make up his mind in the house. How can we servants dare to mess around? The adults of the Forbidden Army also said that the integrity of the scene should be maintained, so..." Han Fei nodded, feeling that he was quite lucky to be able to see the exact crime scene.
Next, Han Fei did not rush forward to investigate, but first interrogated the servant:
"When did Mr. Liu come back last night?"
"Well... it was about midnight when the master came back drunk."
Zinu had mentioned getting drunk before, but Han Fei was not surprised. After thinking about it, he continued to ask: "Besides getting drunk, has Mr. Liu ever done anything unusual?"
"It's nothing special..." The servant thought for a while and replied, "The only thing that's a bit special is that the master came to the study, but this has happened before."
"Ever since my wife's accident, the master has often been out drinking until late at night. Every time he is drunk, he falls asleep as soon as he comes back. But occasionally he sobers up and comes to the study, and asks us servants not to disturb him." p>
"That's what happened last night."
"Oh..." Han Fei touched his chin and browsed the study room.
There is nothing special, and the space is not large. Apart from the desk, there are two rows of bookshelves, which are clearly visible at a glance.
"Is there someone patrolling your house at night?"
"Yes, since Madam's accident, the master has arranged a large number of people to patrol and check day and night, and the defense is airtight. However, the people who patrolled last night said that they did not find anyone sneaking in."
At this time, Gu Xun and Zhang Liang walked to the body and began to inspect it. Seeing this, Han Fei waved his hand to signal the servant to step back, and also stepped forward.
"How's it going, ovary, what do you think?"
Zhang Liang rarely looked directly at the person he was speaking to, but still looked around the corpse with his head down and replied:
"The bleeding marks around the body were even and complete, and there was only this one mark. The wound on the body was only a fatal wound on the throat. Mr. Liu was probably killed with a sword. There was no resistance at all, and the body was not transferred."
"There are complete and clear footprints on the bloodstains, and the pace is steady and not chaotic. The murderer should have been very calm when he left. He is a veteran!"
"So, Zifang thinks the murderer should be a professional killer?" Han Fei smiled and asked Zhang Liang again.
"This... Liang is not sure." Zhang Liang stood up, slightly cupped his hands and said with a smile.
Han Fei smiled and did not comment on Zhang Liang's guess. Instead, he continued Zhang Liang's words and added in a playful tone:
"The footprints on the left and right feet are different in depth. Does this murderer seem to have a problem with his legs and feet?"
"Brother Gu, what do you think of the murderer's strength?"
