"That month Xiaoxiang, it's okay in the future, you can help Lian girl cook, there are a lot of us, I'm afraid she can't be busy alone."
"Yes, my lord." The two walked over.
"And Wenwu, you go and find powerful painters in the entire county to Song, and I will ask them for questioning."
"Yes, my lord."
"At the same time, Wen Cheng, you take this sword, go to the major yamen in Lin'an to ask, see who knows, especially the blacksmith shop, to see who has built this weapon, if there are clues, Song can already determine the murderer."
After explaining all this, Song Ci sat on the wooden bench outside the inn, looking at the passers-by who came and went outside, his thoughts were confused.
In the distance, a team walked over, the iron bell kept ringing, Song Ci looked at it, it was Wu Xi who came here with a large group of people, and the next moment the latter seemed to have discovered him, gradually stopped, and then strode over.
"Who am I, it turned out to be our encirclement and suppression general, Lord Song, aren't you encircling and suppressing in Xianghe? Why did you come to Lin'an again, could it be that you are going to see the emperor again?"
The next moment, he thought of something, his expression changed suddenly, and he knew that something big was about to happen, and this Song Ci might have come to investigate Zhu Zhi'an's death.
Song Ci also walked over, and said with a slight smile: "Lord Wu, Song just came to do some things, so I'll go back, but Lord Wu, I see that you are walking in Lin'an City with a large group of people, but do you think the people will frame you?"
Wu Xi chuckled and said: "Joke, this official is also a second-grade official of this imperial court, do you think this official will be afraid of these people?" But Lord Song, even if you don't, the official already knows why you came to Lin'an, it's just to investigate Zhu Zhi'an's death, I don't know if it's right?"
Song Ci was secretly shocked, since it was seen, then so be it, it doesn't matter, according to the emperor Song Lizong is also sending a sprinkle investigation, it must be that the queen mother doesn't trust them, so she called herself.
"Lord Wu, don't hide it, Song Mou came for Zhu Zhi'an's death, after all, Song Mou was a criminal officer before, this Lord Wu should know, but, I don't know why this Lord Zhu died, after all, he is also a third-grade official position in the imperial court, he will not commit suicide!"
Wu Xi had a gloomy face, he couldn't refuse and couldn't stop Song Ci coming, the matter had reached a very serious point, and it had to be taken seriously, otherwise it would be unimaginable.
If Zhu Zhi'an's death is found out, then he and Tang Harmony will be severely punished.
"Lord Song, since you have come to Lin'an, then the official can only wish you good luck, and at the same time, since the official still has something to do, so I won't bother and leave."
The team continued to walk forward, and soon disappeared in sight.
Song Ci looked at it for a moment, lost interest, and then returned to the house
At the same time, Wu Xi and his men and horses quickly walked on the road to Tang Harmonic's mansion, he hurried up, and when he came to the house, he was already waiting here.
Someone took him in, Tang Hui in the house had already prepared a table of meals, and was waiting at the moment, with Wu Xi's entry, the two simply said hello and chatted about the topic.
"Lord Wu, you also know the current situation, this official has learned from the palace that this queen mother not only met Lu You, but also met Song Ci, which is very unfavorable for you and me."
Wu Xi already knew this, and he also sensed that the situation was wrong, once any of the consequences of this matter were revealed, it would be completely over.
"Lord Tang, the current emperor. The investigation of Zhu Zhian has already been handed over to the two of us, how about I wait for this matter to be framed directly?"
"Framed? I don't know how to plant a false accusation?"
Wu Xi thought for a while and said: "This is not simple, we will directly correct a murderer, this Zhu Zhi'an embezzled his subordinates, so he was retaliated against and died, Lord Tang, how about your method?"
He was silent for a while, but he didn't dare to nod easily, besides, this murderer was definitely going to be taken to the Xuande Palace, in case Emperor Lizong and Lu You asked about it, it would be difficult to handle the matter.
"Lord Wu, this matter is improper, this matter is inappropriate, think about it, who is a fool in this court? If I don't get things done, do I have any life? I'm afraid that this murderer will show his feet when the time comes, or be questioned, then...
Wu Xi had obviously thought of this, and said at this moment: "Regarding this matter, Master Tang doesn't need to worry, after all, we have other ways, why don't we tell the emperor directly, this person committed suicide in fear of sin?"
"Well, it seems that this is the only way, but in case Song Ci knows, at that time, even if there is no evidence, there must be evidence."
"Wu also thinks so, besides, this Song Ci has come to Lin'an and is currently living on the street outside, I suspect that this Song Ci has received an order from the Queen Mother or Lu You to come to investigate the case thoroughly, and I am in danger now.
Tang Huo exclaimed, "Isn't it easy to do this?" If all the subordinates who participated in the killing of Zhu Zhi'an are dealt with and there is no certification for two times, could it be that he can still find absolute evidence?"
"I've already killed, what I'm waiting for now is a murderer, and there is a complete chain of evidence, Lord Tang, why don't I wait for the early dynasty in a few days, and go directly to Emperor Lizong to clarify the situation?"
"So good, so good."
In the inn, with the help of Qin Yuexiao Xiang and others, hundreds of rao food were made and quickly served on the table.
It just so happened that Wen Cheng Wenwu and the others also came back at the same time at this moment, and they took people and entered the interior.
"My lord, after our inquiry, it is indeed the people of the imperial court who made this long sword, as for the official, these blacksmiths don't know, what should you and us do?"
Although I can't find real evidence, these are already good evidence for Song Cilai, as long as there is this clue, you can still reason with people in the court.
Song Ci said: "What about the painter? Did you find it?"
Wen Cheng pushed an old man out, "My lord, there is only one studio in Lin'an, and there were indeed people from the yamen who asked him to paint a month ago, my lord, you must not have imagined that this person is Tang Huan." ”
Song Ci suddenly had enough evidence for all this, with these, even if Emperor Lizong didn't believe it, then there was still the Queen Mother here.
Song Ci looked at the painter, "Old man, here is the criminal officer Song Ci, there is a question I need to ask you at this moment, are you willing to answer it?"
The old man thought that he had made a big mistake, and immediately knelt down and said, "My lord, what's wrong?" If you make a mistake, you are willing to accept the punishment of the adult, but I hope that the adult will point it out!
Song Ci helped him up and arranged for him to sit down on the side, "Old man, you didn't make any mistakes, today Song only called you over, in fact, he has something to ask you, you don't have to worry." ”
The old man was relieved, the expression on his face softened, and his nervous heart relaxed. "My lord, it's just a painter, if you have something to ask, then ask me, as long as you know, you will know everything in the future, and there will be no concealment.
Song Ci didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the point, "Old man, in fact, Song doesn't have anything else to ask, I just want to know, who have you painted portraits of in the past month?"
"Ah..... It seems to be a person from the imperial court, but my lord, that one is very big, and I don't know what kind of official he is, anyway, how he draws below. ”
Song Ci is even more determined, if it is not Tang and Wu, who will it be? This old man may not have seen this Zhu Zhi'an, what do the people know about it?
At this moment, Song Ci knew that he was closer to the truth, and he was about to be revealed, and he only owed to confront him in public.
Song Ci leaned back with his hands and said coldly: "Old man, I don't know if you still remember what the person you painted looked like?" Can you draw another one from memory at this moment?
.... He was silent.
Song Ci said: "Old man, don't worry, as long as you paint, whether you meet Song's requirements or not, I will give you silver?" At the same time, Song is the criminal officer of the Great Song Dynasty, I believe the old man should know me!"
He nodded, finally agreed, and then took out the pen and ink paper he carried with him, and then began to draw on the white paper, but this old man has a very high attainment, and his facial features have appeared in only a few breaths.
Song Ci has seen Zhu Zhi'an's corpse, and he feels a little similar at the moment, but it has not been completed yet, and he doesn't know what the final result will be.
Time passed quickly, and in less than half an hour, the eyes, eyebrows, nose and other facial features appeared, Song Ci looked at it, it was Zhu Zhi'an at this moment, and the similarity was close to ninety percent.
It is difficult to have such a close person at the bottom, and it is the anti-gold lord Zhu Zhi'an Song Ci is more and more satisfied with it, and handed over this thing to Wencheng Wenwu for safekeeping, and then took out a few taels of silver from his arms and handed it over.
"Old man, thank you for your wonderful pen Danqing, this picture scroll is very perfect, Song will pay you, at the same time, I don't know if the old man is willing to accompany me to the Xuande Hall after a few days?"
"Elect the Hall of Virtue?" He was a little scared, this plot is the residence of Emperor Song Lizong, ordinary people may go?
"Lord Song, it's not a court official, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to this Hall of Virtue, of course, if the emperor is willing to see me, then I don't mind going."
His face was clouded and worried.
Song Ci directly gave a reassurance, "Old man, Song Mou guarantees that you are fine, and at the same time, this is to find out the traitors in the palace, and at the same time, the queen mother supports us, do you have concerns?"
As soon as he heard that in order to catch the traitor, the old man did not hesitate and immediately agreed, which shows that he is also a patriotic person.
Song Ci put his mind at ease and immediately arranged for him to sit down and start eating, and the food of these soldiers was also brought into the house, which was too narrow outside to meet the demand.
