Chen Zihua, the head of the Chen family in Yunzhong, died in Yanchun Tower, and he died during a meeting with Commander Lu Hanjiang of the Jin Yiwei.
To be precise, he died before meeting Commander Lu, because when Chen Zihua's body was found, it was said that Master Lu was still drinking wine with a girl downstairs...
The head of a dignified family was actually assassinated in the capital. This matter was serious indeed. Although it did not put everyone in the court in danger, it also made some people begin to doubt the ability of the Jin Yiwei.
After all, such madmen dared to attack Jin Yiwei's lair. Obviously, such madmen cannot be judged by common sense. No matter how everyone was in the same situation before, now facing the same threat, the adults in the court were surprisingly united.
But the most frightening thing is not the lunatics in the arena, but the fact that some people in the court have begun to disobey the rules.
Even this kind of speculation still holds considerable weight in the minds of the ministers. After all, Jianghu people came all the way to the capital to assassinate people, and the person they killed was the head of the Chen family who had nothing to do with Jianghu. This fact makes a little sense.
Compared with the random killings by knights and knights, it is indeed more reliable for the forces in Beijing to fight without a bottom line.
But no matter what, the prisoner must be found first. Whether it is to prove Jin Yiwei's ability or to give an explanation to the Yunzhong Chen family, this matter cannot be delayed without delay.
As it concerns the face of a wealthy family, Lord Jin Yiwei Lu attaches great importance to this shocking assassination case and has already personally investigated it.
Therefore, the bodies of Chen Zihua and his bodyguards, a total of three people, were not brought back to the Chen family. Instead, they went directly to Jinyiwei's Yamen after leaving Yanchun Tower.
In the lobby of Jinyiwei, Jingzhao Prefecture Yin and seven or eight police officers huddled in the corner to minimize their presence. Because the incident occurred in the middle of Beijing, and although it involved a feud in the world, the people who died were members of aristocratic families, so Jingzhao Prefecture’s
People still have to come.
But now in the lobby, the commander Lu Hanjiang, Wu Qiming, the governor, Xu Le, the governor, and five or six thousand households, all of these big shots with hands and eyes are all present, which really makes the people of Jingzhao Mansion even more powerful.
I didn't even dare to take a big breath.
A group of Jin Yiwei bosses went to the battlefield to conduct autopsies. One by one, they examined the corpses of the two guards. First, Yan Feng said: "This is a sword wound, and this scar looks a bit like Taoist swordsmanship."
shadow."
Zeng Hong nodded and analyzed: "It should be Wudang swordsmanship. I have fought against Ziyang Taoist Bai Jingnian, one of the Seven Heroes of Wudang. It can't be wrong."
"Something weird."
After inspecting the wounds, Xu Le, the governor of Nanzhen Fusi, frowned and said in a deep voice: "There is something wrong with these wounds. Look, the sword wounds suffered by Chen Zihua and the two guards did not occur at the same time.
"
This statement shocked several thousand families. They hurriedly stepped forward to check again, and sure enough, they found out whether the injuries were old or new. They heard Xu Le slowly say: "In my opinion, this new wound may be...
Someone did it on purpose."
"Could it be that someone is framing Wudang?" Yan Feng frowned.
"Xu Zhenfu is right."
At this time, Wu Qiming stood up and said: "This injury is weird. It seems to be caused by Wudang swordsmanship, but in fact the sword is too weak. It's just an appearance. The murderer uses Qi to control the sword. This man is strong in internal skills, and
Not swordsmanship."
Zeng Hong's brows widened: "If according to your analysis, the murderer deliberately used Wudang swordsmanship to create a trap, and his true identity is someone else."
"I have checked the meridians of Chen's two guards. Their kung fu is not weak. The murderer can easily kill two people with other martial arts. I am afraid that his internal strength is not low." Wu Qiming said calmly.
Xu Le took two steps back and forth and said in a solemn voice: "I checked and found out that Chen Zihua was at the Yanchun Tower where he arrived at the first quarter. When Mr. Lu arrived at the building at two o'clock, he had already been found murdered.
"
Yan Feng said solemnly: "In a quarter of an hour, the murderer was able to avoid everyone's eyes and enter the private room in the building to kill without attracting anyone's attention. He was able to escape unscathed afterwards. This fact is amazing."
After Wu Qiming pondered for a moment, he looked at Xu Le: "Xu Zhenfu, what do you say?"
Xu Le narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Zihua's body, and said coldly: "Nansi's men were able to target all four gates of the capital in just one stick of incense, and the patrol camp did not find anyone who dared to break into the city gate...
I conclude that the murderer is still in Beijing."
Several people nodded after hearing this. They didn't have many doubts about Xu Le's words. They all worked together in the Jinyiwei Yamen, and they still had the most basic trust in each other's abilities.
Lu Hanjiang drank tea and listened to everyone's analysis, and finally said: "Now that we are sure that the person is still in Beijing, let's come up with a plan."
"Yes." Several people bowed in agreement.
Lu Hanjiang stood up from his seat, and the Jingzhao Governor on the side quickly came forward while wiping his sweat: "Master Lu."
"Well," Lu Hanjiang nodded to him, and then said, "The crime happened in the middle of the capital. You just have to follow the rules."
"I understand, sir. If nothing happens, sir, I will leave now." Jingzhao Prefecture Yin said respectfully.
"Go ahead," Lu Hanjiang waved his hand, then turned around and gave Wu Qiming a look: "This case is of great importance. We might as well go to Datian to hear it, so please give Wu a little more trouble."
"Don't worry, sir, your humble position will certainly fulfill your mission." Wu Qiming responded in a deep voice.
Lu Hanjiang nodded slightly, then looked at Baihu who had been waiting anxiously for a long time outside the door, beckoned him in, and asked at the same time: "What's the matter?"
The hundred households seemed to have been granted amnesty, and they quickly replied: "Reporting to your lord, it is Chen's people who are making a noise outside the Yamen."
Lu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows and said, "Well, it's understandable that someone from the Chen family died, but it will take time for the Jinyi Guards to investigate the case, so let them go back and wait."
"No..." The hundred households said with a smile: "Sir, the Chen family's people are not here to speed up the progress, but..."
As he said this, the eyes of the hundreds of households unconsciously fell on the three corpses lying in the middle of the lobby, mainly on the corpse of Chen Zihua.
"Chen's people want to carry back the body of their head of the family first." The hundred households said with a little embarrassment.
"Chen Zihua?" Lu Hanjiang looked down and said in surprise: "Chen Zihua obviously committed suicide. Why did you bring him back?"
"..."
Several people in the scene looked at each other in confusion. The scene was chaotic at that time. To avoid any mistakes, they naturally brought all the corpses back for inspection. However, Chen Zihua's corpse was indeed of little value.
Yan Feng coughed, and then ordered the hundred households: "In that case, take the body out and return it to them."
"By the way," Lu Hanjiang called Zeng Hong, and after thinking for a while, he ordered him: "The head of the Chen family died tragically, and my Jin Yiwei also made some mistakes in this matter. To express my apology, you go to Jinming Temple.
Invite a few more masters, Chen will be able to use them for rituals in two days."
