Leng Shoushi came back soon, saw him in a daze, and patted him on the shoulder: "What are you thinking about?"
"Brother Ninth, do you think we should find the real murderer?" Leng Shoushan turned to look at him: "According to what Chief Chu said, this person was the murderer of Brother Fifth, but he should have been ordered by someone else. Do we want to find the instigator?
"
"Well, of course I'm looking for it." Leng Shoushi nodded.
"Looking at the appearance of Chief Chu, I'm afraid he already knows." Leng Shoushan frowned and said, "He doesn't dare to check more, why? He is a bold man. In the world, except for the emperor and the one from Daleiyin Temple, he
I’m afraid there’s no one left to be afraid of!”
"He is not afraid of masters. His martial arts skills are strong enough, but he also has weaknesses." Leng Shoushi said: "Because he is a person who values friendship. You will know if you think about it."
"Love and justice are important." Leng Shoushan nodded: "Such a person is worth making friends with. Is he worried about Princess Xiao and the Duke's Palace?"
Leng Shoushi nodded.
"The Duke Yi's mansion is different now. It seems there is nothing to be afraid of."
"That's not necessarily the case."
"...I can't think of it." Leng Shoushan finally shook his head.
After all, he usually just likes to eat, drink and have fun, and doesn't get involved in national affairs. He only knows about the affairs of the divine capital and doesn't care much about other things.
Soon two well-dressed middle-aged men came over with gloomy faces and bowed with their fists clasped.
"You take him down, abolish his martial arts first, and then interrogate him slowly." Leng Shoushi stared at the two of them and said, "You just interrogate him. Don't panic if you get any news. If I knew how to kill people and silence them, you would have died long ago!"
"Yes, Crown Prince!" Liang Jin pretended to be middle-aged and said in a deep voice.
Leng Shoushi said: "Don't be anxious. He is a top killer with a firm mind and is not easy to speak. You have to be patient. I don't need to teach you these things. You understand."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will handle it carefully." The round-faced young man cupped his fists and said, "We will definitely reveal everything he knows!"
"That's good." Leng Shoushi waved his hand.
The two left with Zhu Wu in hand.
Leng Shoushan smiled and said, "Brother Ninth, why are you raising these people? They look so gloomy and scary."
"These people are indispensable." Leng Shoushi shook his head: "You don't want to deal with others, but you have to prevent others from dealing with you. Without these people, Qingyun Tower would have been completely swallowed up, and I would also be dead."
"You are the eldest son!" Leng Shoushan said.
Leng Shoushi snorted: "Fifth brother is also the heir apparent!"
Leng Shoushan was silent for a moment.
The two came to Jixue's yard and listened to Jixue playing the piano.
They usually marvel at Jixue's piano skills, and they are always intoxicated, but today they were absent-minded.
Ji Xue was dressed in a lake green robe, pure and elegant, her bright eyes flashed, while playing the piano, her eyes flickered on the two people's faces, and she didn't ask any more questions, knowing that something dark must have been involved, so it was better not to know.
They usually have little access to these, in order to prevent them from being contaminated by the darkness of the world. Only with a pure heart can their skills be impressive.
But they are all very smart women. They have seen many people and their knowledge is different from ordinary people. They have some vague understanding of these things.
After a piece of music was played, she played the piano and looked at the two of them. She was still distracted and didn't realize that the sound of the piano had stopped.
She continued to the next song.
An hour passed unknowingly. She sat down on the string, waved her bare hands, stood up and poured a glass of wine for the two of them.
The two of them glanced at the door from time to time.
As soon as they picked up the silver cups, they heard footsteps. They quickly put down their wine glasses and shouted: "Come in!"
Two gloomy middle-aged men walked into the small courtyard and then appeared outside the hall.
"Jixue, please go out for a while." Leng Shoushi turned around and said.
Ji Xue bowed her head lightly, and Fan Jin bowed and retreated.
Leng Shoushi glanced at the two of them.
The round-faced middle-aged man glanced left and right, then turned around, closed the door, and returned to Leng Shoushi and Leng Shoushan.
"Tell me." Leng Shoushi said.
As soon as he saw the round-faced middle-aged man's behavior, he knew he was asking something very important.
"Zhu Wu explained it very simply. He knew that he would definitely die, and he just wanted a happy death." The middle-aged man with a Chinese character said in a deep voice: "So we think it is true to tell him everything he knows."
"Yeah." Leng Shoushi said, "Who is it?"
"The person who instructs him is Sun Zhanhe, the deputy general of King Ping of Western Xinjiang." said the middle-aged man with a Chinese character.
"Prince Ping?!" Leng Shoushi and Leng Shoushan's expressions changed.
The middle-aged man with a Chinese-character face nodded, his face still gloomy.
The young man with a round face sighed: "There is someone in Shendu who is assisting us. It is Wailang Guqi, a member of the military department."
The expressions of Leng Shoushi and Leng Shoushan changed again.
The middle-aged man with a Chinese-style face said: "This should be true."
Looking at the two princes, the round-faced middle-aged man sighed again: "After he succeeded, he immediately fled, not to the Western Region, but to Jishui City, the Duke of Ji's Mansion. He was caught in Jishui City."
"What do you mean?" Leng Shoushan asked hurriedly: "Does the Duke of Jiguo also have a role in this?"
The middle-aged man with a Chinese character said: "Zhu Wu can't be sure."
Leng Shoushi and Leng Shoushan looked at each other with ugly expressions, a conspiracy!
"Why did Zhu Wu kill my fifth brother?" Leng Shoushan asked hurriedly.
The middle-aged man with a Chinese character said: "He acts according to orders and doesn't know anything else."
"Damn guy!" Leng Shoushan slapped the table angrily: "I will definitely kill him!"
Leng Shoushi said: "How does he know the whereabouts of fifth brother?"
"...There was news sent to him by a guard." The middle-aged man with a Chinese character said: "He didn't bribe him, it might have been Yuanwailang Guqi."
"Damn it! Damn it!" Leng Shoushan gritted his teeth.
The thought of this makes people feel chilling. The guards are bribed, their whereabouts are known, and they can be killed if they want. I am no different from Fifth Brother, so my life can be taken away at any time!
Leng Shoushi turned around and said, "Do you want to continue the investigation?"
Leng Shoushan said: "Brother Ninth, what do you think?"
"This matter is a big trouble." Leng Shoushi frowned and said, "I just don't know why the fifth brother was stabbed..."
He glanced at Leng Shoushan.
Leng Shoushan frowned: "Brother Ninth, do you suspect that Brother Five is also involved?"
"It's okay for fifth brother to participate. I'm afraid of Uncle Kang Wang..." Leng Shoushi shook his head.
"No!" Leng Shoushan said hurriedly.
Leng Shoushi said: "In short, we have to keep this matter in our stomachs. Zhu Wu will handle it secretly, and it must be in Jishui City."
He glanced at the two gloomy middle-aged men and said, "I don't need to say more about how serious this matter is."
The two middle-aged men cupped their fists and saluted.
"Keep your mouth shut. From today on, you are not allowed to leave the house or see outsiders. I will not silence you for fear that someone else will do it!" Leng Shoushi said in a deep voice, "I will send additional guards."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" the two said solemnly.
They knew that this matter was not trivial. A bad thing would be to confiscate the family and exterminate the entire family. Even the children of the royal family would not be spared.
Leng Shoushi was silent, thinking about what he had missed.
Leng Shoushan frowned.
He was vaguely worried that if his fifth brother really got involved, or if his father got involved, it would be a huge disaster. (To be continued.)
