Chapter 408

Chapter 408 Clues

After arriving at Cheng Yaojin's garrison point, everyone showed great enthusiasm for Muchuan's arrival.

After all, Muchuan has won everyone's recognition. Whether it was the whole army competing in the competition or leading them to rescue him in the forest, this is a full bond.

"Master, why are you here?"

Xue Rengui was also overjoyed and hurriedly came to greet him.

Muchuan smiled and patted Xue Rengui on the shoulder, saying, "Old Xue, I'm here to ask for help this time."

Help?

Hearing this, Xue Rengui was shocked. He knew Muchuan's abilities. Anything that would make Muchuan come for help would be a major event that could shake Chang'an!

Xue Rengui's face froze, he couldn't help but lower his voice, and said in surprise: "Is there someone else who wants to rebel?"

Muchuan couldn't help but have a black line. How could there be so many rebellions!

"That's not true, it's just that His Majesty appointed me as the Imperial Envoy and was ordered to thoroughly investigate the Guangming Hall and the assassination of the prince."

"I have no one available now, so I come here for help."

After listening, Xue Rengui suddenly realized.

He didn't hesitate for a moment, even if he said that he would let Muchuan drive him.

Just kidding, Xue Rengui had expressed his determination at the beginning. He would always be a retainer of Mu Mansion.

Muchuan was not surprised at all by Xue Rengui's statement.

Lao Xue is a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty. Not to mention that he is just a captain now. Even if he becomes a general in the future, he will probably give up everything to help him if he just says a word.

Later, Muchuan explained it to the lieutenants and showed his imperial envoy badge.

There was no doubt among the soldiers that they wanted to follow Muchuan to handle the case.

Muchuan was greatly moved, but he couldn't call everyone on board.

You know, even if most of the soldiers in the garrison were taken by Cheng Yaojin to quell the Xiongnu rebellion, there were still about a thousand people left.

If he brought all these thousand people with him, even Li Shimin would doubt his intentions.

So Muchuan carefully selected and selected about twenty smart and powerful young men.

Among them, Zhu Chi insisted on wanting to help Muchuan, and he only needed Muchuan to take care of the food.

Muchuan thought about it and decided not to bring Zhu Chi with him.

Although the pig idiot has courage that no man can match, he has low intelligence and is a complete fool.

During this trip, he would inevitably go to the palace to investigate the case. If he brought Zhu Chi with him, he would cause some trouble in the palace, and Muchuan would have no place to cry.

All in all, Muchuan brought Xue Rengui, Gao Kan, and twenty other experts to form an investigation team.

Muchuan wasted no time and led everyone straight to the first destination - the former site of Guangming Main Hall.

This is a church-like building built on the outskirts of the city. Muchuan has extraordinary experience and can recognize at a glance that this Guangming Church is not much different from Western churches.

Seeing this, Muchuan already had some guesses in his mind.

Combined with Western people like Lawrence and Jack, plus this Western church building.

Muchuan concluded that it was not Li Zhi who established the Guangming Church, but that he was chosen.

Of course, we need to continue to investigate carefully as to what the situation is.

Today, the Guangming Church has been sealed up, and officers and soldiers are stationed around it.

Seeing Muchuan and his party coming, the officers and soldiers quickly blocked Muchuan's way.

"who?

If you dare to invade the thieves' stronghold, is it possible that you are an accomplice?"

These officers and soldiers know how to pick up shit pots randomly, and they always frame them up as soon as they open their mouths.

Muchuan frowned slightly, but he did not speak.

Now that I have a bunch of subordinates, if I have to do even this small thing by myself, I will be a failure.

Gao Kan took a step forward and said with a look of displeasure on his face: "What are you yelling about! My Lord is His Majesty's personal imperial envoy! You dare to be so rude, I think you don't want your head anymore!"

As soon as these words came out, the officers and soldiers were all startled and couldn't help but look at Muchuan carefully.

Seeing that Muchuan was dressed luxuriously and had an air of nobility that was overwhelming, he looked like he was no ordinary person.

Although the officers and soldiers didn't know whether it was true or not, they would rather believe it or not. They all knelt down and kowtowed.

You must know that the imperial envoy represents the will of the emperor. Although there is no actual rank, no matter how old an official is, he will be dwarfed by the imperial envoy, let alone pawns like them.

"I wonder what I call this lord?"

"Hmph, kids, listen up!"

Gao Kan looked proud, as if he was introducing himself.

"My lord is the new top scholar in Jinke! The current Minister of Household Affairs! The chief inspector in charge of railway construction! Mu Chuan, Lord Mu, that's right!"

Hearing this, the officers and soldiers were stunned for a moment, and finally reacted.

Originally, they looked at Muchuan with doubts, but at this moment, they were filled with only reverence.

As people from Chang'an, they had heard of Muchuan's name.

Don't look at it that Muchuan is just a Minister of Household Affairs, only a fourth-grade person.

But you must know that Muchuan is only over 20 years old. He holds such a high position at such an age. It is not surprising that he will sit in the position of prime minister in the future!

At this point, the officers and soldiers no longer dared to have the slightest suspicion and gave way one after another, and even the leader of the officers and soldiers accompanied him.

Muchuan did not refuse. It was a good thing to have someone who could ask questions at any time.

After entering the Church of Light, Muchuan became more convinced of his conjecture.

This thing definitely came from the West. Li Zhi himself specified that he would not be able to build such a building with Western characteristics.

In addition, Muchuan also found some clues.

It is said to be a church, but there are no statues for worship here, only a few murals whose appearance is unclear.

Looking at these murals, Muchuan could not help but fall into deep thought.

He always felt that these murals looked familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember why they looked familiar.

"Master, why do you keep staring at these paintings?"

Gao Kan looked puzzled, and even Xue Rengui and others were also curious.

After all, in their view, these are just deceptive things created by Western magicians.

Muchuan shook his head and stopped looking at these murals.

Now I can't think of the specialness of these murals for a while, so I won't waste time anymore.

However, Muchuan still asked a painter to record these murals so that they might be used one day.

Apart from these murals, there is almost nothing worth seeing here.

It is strange to say that such a large church is empty, and many places are even made of adobe, as if they are half-finished products.

Muchuan asked the officers and soldiers, "Have you ever captured anyone from the Guangming Church?"

"Replying to Master Mu, some people were indeed arrested, but most of them were innocent people. They were released after the final filing."

"But there are still a few people in prison, but they don't know how to speak our language, so we won't be able to communicate with them for a while."

Hearing this, Muchuan couldn't help but be a little surprised. He didn't expect that there was an unexpected gain.
