Soon, the assassin began to feel in a trance, his eyes were blurred, and he was restless.
Luo Wu continued to guide: "You are going to die. It was your master who killed you. Don't you want to take revenge? If you fail to complete the task, your master will definitely be furious and involve your family. Maybe you have no family, but you have friends and relatives.
, they will also be implicated."
"Devil, you are a devil, please give me pleasure."
"It's not easy to die. Tell me your identity and purpose, and I promise to give you a happy death. Otherwise, just enjoy the death process slowly. At least you can last for one stick of incense."
Exaggerating the time can put more pressure on the other party.
Sure enough, the other party became more and more anxious and angry, and weakly shouted: "Devil, you are the devil, please give me a knife, I said, I said, we are dead soldiers of the Confucius family, kill me."
"A dead soldier of the Kong family?" Luo Wu's face changed drastically. Why was it different from what he expected? Shouldn't he be a dead soldier of the Wei Prince's family? He quickly asked: "What is your purpose?"
"Kill... the officials of the Han Palace, create chaos, and prevent... the development of Hanzhou." The local voice became weaker and weaker, and his eyes began to close.
"Which Kong family?"
"The Prime Minister of the day... the Prime Minister."
Luo Wu was a little confused when he heard that the prime minister of the dynasty was a little confused. Although Kong Yingda and Qin Huaidao didn't deal with it, they didn't send soldiers to die. Could it be a frame-up? He quickly asked: "Did the King of Wei instigate it? Tell me quickly."
The other party didn't answer, he was so angry that he was speechless.
Luo Wu picked up his opponent's arm and looked at it. There were no marks from the previous batch of assassins. There should be two groups of people. He suddenly became furious and shouted: "Commander, get over here."
When the shopkeeper witnessed the scene just now, he was already frightened to the point of despair and panicked. Luo Wu, who was regarded as a devil, was frightened and fell to the ground when he heard the shouting. He trembled and said repeatedly: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I don't know anything."
"
A guard in golden clothes stepped forward, lifted the man up, and threw him in front of Luo Wu.
Luo Wu squatted down, stared at the other person and said, "Raise your head and answer the question well."
The manager was so frightened that he quickly raised his head, fearing that if it was too late, his artery would be severed and he would bleed to death.
"Who are these people?" Luo Wu asked coldly.
"Their registered identity is the Chang'an Wang Family Caravan. They have a Chang'an accent and complete procedures. The caravan has been established for a hundred years and has a good reputation. It mainly deals in grain. I have been here twice and... I have no doubts. The common people really don't know that they are the dead men of the Confucius family."
." The shopkeeper quickly kowtowed and explained, frightened.
"Have you been here twice? How long ago? Give me the relevant level information."
The shopkeeper quickly got up, found another register and rummaged for a while. After finding the relevant information, he quickly handed it to Luo Wu and explained: "Their principal's surname is Wang. You see, they are all here."
Luo Wu picked it up and saw that it was indeed true. One date was six months ago, and the other date was three months ago. Lu Yin, the manager of the caravan king, indeed showed that he lived in Chang'an, so he asked: "Where are the people?"
"People, people... the common people don't know where they are, but they still see them during the day."
"Search for me, we must find this person!" Luo Wu realized that this was a big fish. The person in charge was just the person in charge of the caravan, and there was a boss behind it. Perhaps it was a business company secretly supported by the Kong family.
The Confucian family is a scholarly family, a saint family, and they value face most. They will not personally engage in such lowly business as doing business, but will only support them secretly. There are all aristocratic families in the world who consider themselves scholars and secretly control their business.
"Report——"
A guard in Jinyi rushed over, cupped his fists and said: "General, there are nine in total, two of them will be captured, and the others will die in battle."
"Ask a team of people to bring them all back, and interrogate them separately to find out their identities as soon as possible. The others will follow me, continue the search, and move quickly." Luo Wu said coldly, and hurriedly walked out.
Just as he reached the door, Luo Wu stopped, his eyes were as cold as a wolf, and he stared at the shopkeeper and said: "You are not allowed to leave the inn even half a step before you are cleared of suspicion, otherwise you will be killed!"
"I know, I know." The shopkeeper quickly agreed.
Luo Wu was not afraid that the other party would run away from him. Leaving Hanwang City was an endless grassland and Gobi desert with no place to hide. He left in a hurry with his people. At a crossroads, he met Duke Wei who was coming in a hurry and greeted him as a courtesy.
Duke Wei asked in a deep voice: "Have you found anything?"
"The assassin claimed that he was a dead soldier of the Kong family. The authenticity needs to be verified. The main person escaped and there are probably others." Luo Wu briefly explained the situation.
"Kong Mansion?"
Duke Wei's eyes narrowed, and a person flashed in his mind, and he solemnly warned: "I'm afraid the matter is not simple. Maybe there is the shadow of King Wei behind it. You continue to investigate, and I will go to the King of Han to discuss it."
To this day, Li Jing and other older group of princes do not recognize Li Tai's identity as the new emperor, and still call him King Wei.
Luo Wu glanced at Li Dejiao behind Li Jing and several generals. They all looked like veterans with good abilities and no big safety issues. He was still worried, so he called a few people to escort him and hurriedly left with the others.
go.
Li Jing led his people straight to the Han Palace, and met Cheng Yaojin on the way. They exchanged a few words and went hand in hand.
The guards of the Han Palace were as if they were faced with a formidable enemy. There were Jinyi Guards on the outside, with five steps and one post. Inside, Cheng Xiaomei and Yuchi Ling'er led patrols. However, Li Jing and Cheng Yaojin had special status and no one could stop them. However, the entourage had to stay.
Arrange for someone to go in first and report.
The two of them were quickly led to the study.
Qin Huaidao greeted him at the door, exchanged a few words with him, then went into the study and sat down.
Li Jing went straight to the point, told Luo Wu truthfully and then added: "King Han, this matter is very fishy. If it was done by King Li Tai of Wei, the dead man should not call himself a dead man of the Confucius family, unless he has been warned in advance to deliberately frame the blame.
, but it will be detrimental to the King of Wei after being exposed. This kind of frame-up will lose Kong Yingda’s support. Is it the Kong family’s doing?”
"No--"
Qin Huaidao said with a cold expression: "The King of Wei also participated."
"Ah, are you sure?" Li Jing's expression changed.
"A group of assassins were captured. There were marks on their wrists. Wang De recognized that the marks were those used by the Holy Spirit when he was young."
"Imprint, let me take a look." Li Jing asked in surprise.
"How come Old Cheng doesn't know what mark the Holy One used when he was young?" Cheng Yaojin was also shocked.
Soon, a corpse was dragged over. Li Jing couldn't wait to pull open his sleeves. His face darkened when he saw the mark on it, and he said coldly: "I seem to have seen this mark somewhere."
"A jade bone fan." Qin Huaidao reminded.
"Yes, the Jade Bone Fan was the His Majesty's favorite object when he was young. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty never used it again. I thought that the Holy One changed his mind and kept it. How could the mark be on these people?"
After receiving confirmation from Li Jing, Qin Huaidao no longer doubted the clue provided by Wang De and said bluntly: "Wang De said that the Holy Emperor gave the Jade Bone Fan to Li Tai."
"That's it." Li Jing suddenly realized.
Cheng Yaojin also understood and cursed: "Little Li Tai, you are trying to replace me and you should be punished!"
Perhaps thinking of other things, Cheng Yaojin added: "Give me a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and I will go and destroy him. The Tang Dynasty does not belong to him. We old people who have been through life and death also have a share. The Holy Spirit is no longer here. Let's take it back."
Let the King of Han be the emperor. Anyway, when the Holy Sage passed away, he said that the place of Zen is the King of Han."
"Is there such a thing?" Li Jing was shocked. He looked at Cheng Yaojin and then at Qin Huaidao, his eyes shining brightly.
