To be able to give birth to a son like Zhu Zhenchuan, one can only imagine what kind of temper Wu Anbo has.
When Xu Jing rushed to the Nancheng Army and Horses Department, Wu Anbo was drinking in the duty room! Sitting with him were all the leaders of the Army and Horses Department. Several enchanting women poured wine with dancing eyes and grinned.
She doesn't look like a good-natured girl.
"Uncle, the Prince of Beihai met an assassin, and now three corpses have been sent here..."
Before the soldier who came to deliver the message had finished speaking, the door to the duty room was suddenly pushed open.
A proud and handsome young man dressed in fine clothes strode in with anger, and his eyes fell on Wu Anbo's face.
Wu Anbo has been addicted to drinking and sex all year round, and has long since put aside the martial arts he practiced in his early years. From his eyebrows, he can tell at a glance that he is Zhu Zhenchuan's biological father. He has a fair, fat and round face, and is actually a bit handsome.
Wu Anbo also recognized the person at a glance.
This is Xu Jing, the baby brother of daughter-in-law Xu Zhi. The two siblings have quite similar features.
"Your Majesty, let's calm down!" Wu Anbo was knocked over while drinking wine in the duty room. He was not embarrassed. He stood up and said, "Whoever dares to commit murder in the capital city, I will get to the bottom of this matter.
Catch the murderer."
Xu Jing sneered: "Uncle, please ask all the irrelevant people to leave first."
Wu Anbo coughed and waved his hand. The women in the brothel had a look and quickly withdrew. The bosses who were originally accompanying the wine muttered to themselves when they saw the Prince of Beihai approaching menacingly.
This Prince of Beihai has only been in the capital for half a month! What kind of enemy did he make? He actually sent someone to assassinate him?
Wu Anbo asked directly: "May I ask if the prince has any enemies in the capital?"
Xu Jing glanced at Wu Anbo: "If I knew who was responsible, why would I come to the Nancheng Army and Horse Department to kill him directly?"
"As a sufferer, I personally came to report the case. How to investigate the case is a matter for the Military and Horse Department."
Turning around and giving orders, the three corpses were immediately carried in.
These three black-clad assassins had just died, their bodies were still warm, and their bodies were stained with blood.
Wu Anbo became the commander of the Nancheng Army and Horses Division five years ago and was responsible for the security of this area of Nancheng. He had never encountered such a difficult thing before and was immediately overwhelmed.
Don’t even think about drinking anymore, let’s have the autopsy done right away!
Wu Anbo immediately issued an order, ordering the men to come, and sent his soldiers to track down the escaped assassins. In addition, he also sent people to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Department to report the case.
Tomorrow morning, this major assassination case will be reported to the court.
After all this tossing, I can't even sleep that night.
Xu Fang and Xu Zhi in the Beihai Palace got the news at this time, and everyone was shocked. Xu Fang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot: "Who wants to harm Chun Sheng!"
Xu Zhi said nothing and walked out directly.
Zhu Zhenchuan was startled and immediately stopped his furious wife: "Fifth brother asked someone to send a message back just to reassure us. He is fine, which is a blessing in misfortune. My father is in the Military and Horse Division, and we will definitely investigate it strictly."
In this case, catch the murderer."
Xu Zhi looked at each other angrily: "My father-in-law is a good drinker of flower wine, how could he ever investigate a case and pursue the murderer?"
Zhu Zhenchuan: "..."
Don’t tell the truth so truthfully!
"Three of the assassins were killed, and a few others escaped." Zhu Zhenchuan lowered his voice: "You can't help much even if you go to the Military and Horse Department now. It will distract the fifth brother. It's better to wait patiently for the news.
Bar!"
Xu Fang came back to her senses, came over hurriedly, and grabbed Xu Zhi: "You're right, don't cause trouble."
Xu Zhi had a stinky face, but she still heard the consolation.
We waited until the third watch. Instead of waiting for Xu Jing, Xu Shiyi, the private soldier who delivered the message, said: "The Crown Prince asked me to come back and deliver the message. The Crown Prince will stay in the Military and Horse Division tonight. He will go directly at dawn."
Palace, I won’t come back.”
…
This murder disturbed the soldiers and horses of the five cities all night. They sent people to follow up and investigate, and it was unknown how many people were disturbed and could not sleep peacefully.
Unfortunately nothing was found.
The few men in black who escaped were like water droplets blending into the river, disappearing without a trace.
The identities of the three corpses could not be ascertained.
At five o'clock in the morning, Xu Jing entered the palace directly. He did not take a bath, and he was still wearing the clothes from last night, and there were blood stains on his clothes.
Today is the early morning court, and all the officials in the capital are going to court.
Xu Jing stood directly outside the Jinluan Hall. Hundreds of officials were waiting outside the hall to go to court, their eyes frequently drifting over. Some of them who were curious had already asked in low voices about the ins and outs.
"I heard that the Prince of Beihai met an assassin last night."
"This assassin is so rampant that he ambushes on both sides of the street and directly assassinates him. If the Prince of Beihai hadn't been so skilled and had so many soldiers, the consequences would have been disastrous..."
"In the future, when I travel, I will have to take my family with me."
An assassination is really frightening. Especially a group of civil servants. The civil servants are both noble and noble. Even if they have servants at home, they are not very skilled. The perpetrator is so crazy and crazy. If he attacks them, he will be killed.
Aren't they in danger?
No, this case must be investigated strictly! Catch this daring person!
Yushi Meng was particularly angry.
The perpetrator committed a heinous crime. Xu Jing was not a good person. Such things that were disrespectful to the court should have been kept low-key. He made such a big show of publicity to deliberately arouse the officials' feelings of common hatred. He was also forcing Emperor Yongming to be strict.
Investigate the case.
Meng Yushi walked to Xu Jing's side and lowered his voice: "Your Majesty is really reckless."
Xu Jing glanced at Meng Yushi and snorted coldly: "Whenever you meet an assassin and escape death, you can discuss with me what is reckless."
Meng Yushi was so choked that there were sparks in his eyes.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
The officials entered the Jinluan Hall one by one according to their rank and stood there. Xu Jing was not polite at all and stepped in together with Wu Anbo.
Emperor Yongming had received the news as early as last night, and he was not in a good mood that night. As soon as he went to court, all the officials started to play and reacted fiercely.
"The Prince of Beihai was attacked. Please order a strict investigation and find the murderer."
"This seal must not be increased! Please give an order immediately, Your Majesty!"
Meng Yushi, who had previously suspected Xu Jing of being reckless, also stood up and spoke sharply: "The Prince of Beihai has a distinguished status and has many soldiers. He dares to take action. This shows that the murderer behind the scenes is lawless. If he dares to assassinate the Prince today, who knows what the future will bring."
We dare not take action against the officials of the imperial court, and even when the Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince travel, they must be vigilant in every possible way."
"I request the emperor to issue an order to investigate this case strictly."
Xu Jing, the Crown Prince of Beihai, who was the victim, suddenly knelt down with red eyes like a wronged child: "I beg the Emperor to make the decision for my nephew."
Emperor Yongming: "..."
Emperor Yongming had to open his mouth to comfort Xu Jing, and then issued an order: "I order the Ministry of Punishment to take over the case. I will give you ten days to solve the case and find the murderer."
