Chapter 324: Investigation
Cicada Xi nodded and said, "Then I'll go back now and send someone to investigate and see if I can find any clues about Fei Fei." ”
Qu Nian nodded and said, "Okay! Then I'll enter the palace now!"
There is an abandoned courtyard in Wutong Lane with several dilapidated houses, which have now been requisitioned by Wan Ting and turned into a stable, in which hundreds of horses are placed. Sometimes the guards need to rest and come here. In Qu Nian's eyes, this yard is his family's parking lot.
It just so happened that Wan Ting was on the day shift, and when he heard that he was going to enter the palace, he led him to this abandoned courtyard. Because it was daytime, Wan Ting didn't bring many people, so he brought twenty or thirty people and escorted him to the palace.
Although King Qin died of his son, since he had been to Youxi Xiaozhu, he was in a very good mood these days, eating and sleeping fragrantly, and the only annoying thing was that Queen He Zaiyan often came to him, always crying and crying, which made him tireless. Fortunately, the palace is his own territory, and there are many rooms, so he simply does not live in the dormitory, and deliberately avoids her, so it has been much cleaner in the past two days.
This morning, when he went down to the court, he was worried that he had nowhere to go, and Ma Gonggong told him that the spring flowers in the imperial garden had bloomed, and he was suddenly interested, so he went to the imperial garden.
As soon as I arrived at the Imperial Garden, someone came to report that the prince of Qu Nian asked to see him!
King Qin hurriedly said, "Hurry up and bring him over!"
After a while, Qu Nian hurriedly walked over, but saw his father standing under a spring tree, admiring the golden flowers on the tree, which made Qu Nian very surprised, because he always thought that his father must still be immersed in the grief of losing his son, so he didn't dare to disturb him in the past few days, for fear of hitting the muzzle, but he didn't expect his father's interest to be so high, the prince's bones were not cold, he still had the heart to appreciate the flowers, and he was intoxicated.
Seeing Qu Nian, King Qin beckoned and said, "Qu Nian, come and take a look, this year's spring flowers are blooming very well, auspicious!"
Qu Nian said in his heart, your son is dead, and he is still a fart! He walked over and said worriedly: "Father, it's not good!"
King Qin's heart sank and said, "What's wrong?"
Qu Nian said: "Fei Fei is missing!"
King Qin exclaimed, "What? How could he be missing? Isn't there a court to protect you?"
Qu Nian said: "Don't blame General Wan! Fei Fei and Chu San dared to go out to visit the Qinglou without permission last night, and they disappeared while shopping!"
King Qin hurriedly said: "Go to the Qinglou, are you so short of women?"
Qu Nian said: "It's not that I'm lacking, I didn't go shopping! It's also because I didn't think it through, people outside thought Fei Fei was dead, and he still had a fake beard, ordinary people couldn't recognize him just by a portrait, the key is that they wouldn't care about him......"
King Qin interrupted him and said, "I recognized him at a glance that night. ”
Qu Nian said: "You are because you overheard our words, and you heard that he is a member of the Tianhuo Sect, and you have already thought in that direction in your heart, so you will recognize it, and you are not completely sure at that time." And Fei Fei came to Xianyang two or three days before me, you also know that he is here, and many people must have seen him, but no one tells you that he is Fei Fei, which shows that the chance of recognizing him is still very small. And he disappeared in Qinglou for no reason, if he was arrested, it should have been premeditated. ”
King Qin nodded and said, "Then did that Chu San dare to disappear?"
Qu Nian said: "He didn't, so this matter is aimed at Fei Fei!"
King Qin was also anxious, especially when he heard that night, Fei Fei was the only one in the world who could refine the Eye of Heaven, and the source of his happiness in the past few days was also supported by the Eye of Heaven, and now that he heard that Fei Fei was missing, the source of happiness suddenly dried up, and said, "Then what should I do now? Do you want to search the whole city?"
Qu Nian said: "There is no point in searching for the whole city, since you can arrest Fei Fei silently in front of everyone, this person must have the ability to go through the sky." And once the whole city is searched, Fei Fei's affairs in the Qin State will be exposed, and my other plan will not be able to be executed. ”
King Qin said, "Then what are you going to do?"
Qu Nian said: "I'll transfer a little people to me, give me a little right, and I'll check it myself." ”
King Qin said: "How much?"
Qu Nian said: "It doesn't take too much, a few hundred people are enough." ”
King Qin said: "Then can't those people in Wanting just use it for you?"
Qu Nian said: "Yes, but I also need my father's permission, otherwise I won't be able to command General Wan!"
King Qin said: "If you use it, I will immediately issue an edict to Wanting, although you can rest assured to investigate, you can check whoever you want, whoever dares to disobey the order, there will be no forgiveness!" ”
Qu Nian replied and said, "By the way, father, which officials didn't go to the morning court this morning?"
King Qin turned his head to look at Gonggong Ma and said, "Has anyone asked for leave today?"
Ma Gonggong replied: "It doesn't seem to be." ”
Qu Nian nodded and said, "Okay, then I know! Time is pressing, then I'll investigate now." ”
King Qin said: "Go quickly, go quickly!" turned around and said to Ma Gong: "You also go out, talk to Wan Ting, and let him cooperate with Qu Nian to investigate this matter!"
Ma Gonggong answered, turned around and went out with Qu Nian!
Out of the palace gate, Wan Ting was riding on a horse waiting for Qu Nian.
Ma Gonggong looked at Wan Ting at this time and said: "Chuan Wang's edict, General Wan Ting, from now on, you have to obey the dispatch of Qu Nian Gongzi to handle a case, Qu Nian Gongzi is acting on orders, everyone can check, if there is any disobedience, kill him!"
Wan Ting hugged his fists and said, "Obey the order!"
Qu Nian jumped on the horse at this time, and Wan Ting asked, "Childe, where am I going now?"
Qu Nian said: "Go back and bring your hundreds of men and horses first!"
Wan Ting answered, and the group hurried to Wutong Lane.
Chu San dared to hear the sound of horses' hooves at home, so he hurriedly rushed out, and heard Wan Ting shouting: "Everyone get on the horse." ”
His men quickly popped up from all corners and ran to the abandoned courtyard.
Chu Sandang also ran over, and at this time, he also rode a horse over, walked to Qu Nian's side, and said, "Master, what do you say?"
Qu Nian said: "Go to the ** building first!"
Chu San dared to say: "Okay, go and settle accounts with that old bustard." ”
Hundreds of horses rushed out of Wutong Alley, their hooves rumbling on the bluestone slabs.
After all, it's morning, there is no business in the ** building, the door is full of birds, there are three or two girls standing on the steps in front of the door, and there is no passion, a lazy face, occasionally waving the handkerchief in the hand twice, just like a beckoning cat at the door.
At this time, hundreds of horses rushed towards them and stopped in front of their doors, and the girls were frightened.
Chu San dared to jump off the horse, looked at the girls, and shouted: "Let your old bustard get out, shit, I didn't pay you a penny, you dare to pit me!"
At this moment hundreds of people jumped off their horses, and at once surrounded the gate, and the girls trembled with fear, and one of them trembled, "Mother has not gotten up yet!"
Chu San dared to say angrily: "Are you fooling me? Don't look at what time it is now, the sun is scorching to your buttocks, and you haven't gotten up yet?"
The girl said, "I...... I don't know why. Every day she gets up early, but today she didn't get up, we didn't dare to call her!"
Qu Nian secretly said badly and asked, "Where does she live?"
The girl said, "I live in the back yard." ”
Qu Nian said: "Take us over to see." ”
The girl answered, and led them to the backyard!
The backyard was relatively clean, and there were several rooms in it, so the girl led them to the door of one of the rooms, and whispered, "This is my mother's room, do you want me to knock on the door?"
Chu Sandare is a little expert at kicking the door, he can kick the door open with his feet, he never likes to do it, at this time he said angrily: "Knock on the chicken, eight doors!" When he said this, he raised his foot and kicked the door open!
When Qu Nian entered the door, his face suddenly changed, and he saw the old bustard lying on the ground, with a scar on his neck, and the floor next to him was full of dark black bloodstains, and it seemed that he had been killed by someone at night.
Chu San dared to mutter, "Silenced?"
The girl who led the way also poked her head in at this time, and when she saw this scene, she screamed in fright.
Qu Nian retreated, looked at the screaming girl and said, "Is there anyone here who hasn't gotten up?"
The girl trembled with fright, her face turned pale, and she said, "It's still ...... And Ruolan's sister didn't ...... Didn't get up!"
Qu Nian looked at Chu San and said, "This Ruolan is the woman Fei Fei played with last night?"
Chu San dared to be stunned: "I don't know." We prostitutes never ask for names and provenances, and when things are done, we will go to hide our merits and fame!"
Qu Nian glared at him, then looked at the girl who led the way and said, "Has anyone ever been to see Ruolan?"
The girl said, "No! Miss Ruolan suddenly fainted last night, and her mother said that she might have a period, bleeding too much, and needed to recuperate, so we didn't call her in the morning!"
Qu Nian said: "Take me to see!"
The girl answered, and took them back to the lobby, climbed up the stairs to the second floor, and found the room where Ruolan was resting.
Chu San dared to say, "Let me come!" and then flew up and kicked the door open again.
Qu Nian entered the house and saw a girl lying on the bed from a distance, but before he got closer, he knew that it was a dead person, because there was a pool of blood at the head of the bed. However, the window of the room is not closed, and it seems that the murderer came in through the window!
Chu San dared to walk over, glanced at it, then turned his head to look at Qu Nian and said, "I was also killed!" This murderer is really cruel, and she will not let go of such a flower-like girl, she is simply a loss of conscience." ”
Qu Nian took a deep breath and said, "People don't leave us any clues, it's a bit tricky." ”
Chu San dared to say, "Then forget it?"
