Chapter Seventy-One: Daunting

this day.

Dark clouds are falling.

It was drizzling.

Chang'an City was a little deserted.

But there are still people who come and go.

A horse-drawn carriage drove through the street.

The person who drove the car was none other than Luo Tong!

"Your Highness, should we go to the restaurant first, or to the county government?" Luo Tong asked back.

"Let's go to Cheng Biting Jinna first!"

"Huh? Why? ”

Li Zhi said: "If you want to investigate this case, there are many obstacles. It may involve some important officials in the DPRK and China. We are not strong enough, and we are afraid that it will be difficult to do things. It will be much more convenient to bring Cheng Biting Gold with you! ”

"His Royal Highness is the prince, isn't his identity enough? Hehe....... ”

"What's wrong with the prince? In everyone's eyes, I'm just a little kid, who of them takes me seriously? Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and go to the Luguo Mansion!" ”

"Good!"

"Drive!"

Luo Tong whipped his horsewhip hard.

The horse was in pain and ran forward.

In a blink of an eye, I came to the Lu State Mansion.

Cheng Yanjin was at the door, crossed his waist, as if waiting for something.

Seeing Li Zhi's carriage coming, he greeted him with a smile: "Your Highness, don't come unharmed, the minister has been waiting for a long time!" ”

"Waiting? You already knew I was coming? ”

Li Zhi poked his head out of the car.

"Haha...... The emperor asked me to assist His Highness in handling the case, I must have told His Highness, right? Is there any reason why Your Highness should not come? Cheng bites Jin Dao.

Li Shimin actually asked Cheng Yanjin to handle the case together?

Li Zhi didn't know about this yet!

"Since my father has a will, I don't have to say anything, General Cheng, get in the car, right?" Li Zhidao.

"Go to the county office now?"

"Yes, the sooner the better, lest some ill-intentioned people make arrangements in advance, and if we want to find out the truth, it will be troublesome!"

……

Cheng Yanjin nodded and jumped into the carriage.

On the way to the county office.

Cheng Yanjin was a little puzzled: "Your Highness just said...... Ill-intentioned people? Who is it? ”

"I don't know yet. But I'm sure that to plan a large-scale assassination operation, his energy is definitely not small, and it is likely that he is an official of the Sixth Ministry. But who exactly is unknown! ”

Cheng Yanjin hesitated and whispered, "Is it possible that ......." ”

He winked.

Li Zhi understood, but shook his head: "I know who you are suspicious of, but I think he will not kill me yet!" Don't forget, my mother, his own sister, how could she do such a thing? ”

"That's not for sure!" Cheng Biting Jin said: "The things in the palace are all related to interests. Never mixed with family affection! You treated him like that some time ago, and it was clear that you couldn't get along with him, so why should he be polite to you? ”

"Besides......."

"Niangniang's own heir, you are not the only one!"

These words reminded Li Zhi.

From the time the case happened to the present, he has never doubted the eldest grandson Wuji. Because the eldest grandson Wuji is the queen's own brother, he will never do anything to kill his nephew.

Now that I think about it, I don't dare to pack a ticket for him!

Maybe Cheng Yanjin is right!

There is no family affection in the palace at all!

There are only benefits!

Empress Changsun has more than one prince under his knees, but also the crown prince Li Chengqian and the king of Wei Li Tai!

They all have hope of inheriting the throne! And compared to him, Li Chengqian and Li Tai are very obedient, never talking back to the eldest grandson Wuji, let alone opposing him.

But he took the initiative to provoke the eldest grandson Wuji.

Compared with.

The eldest grandson Wuji will definitely choose Li Chengqian or Li Tai!

For the sake of long-term layout, it is very likely to get rid of him!

"You're right! His suspicion cannot be easily ruled out! Li Zhi nodded.

Soon arrived at the county government.

After seeing the Assassins and making sure they were safe and sound, he returned to the living room. Li Zhi said: "This case is likely to involve some high-ranking and powerful people, I hope you all understand, you can't bend the law for personal gain, whoever you find is whoever you are, and you must bring him to justice!" ”

"With the support of General Cheng and His Royal Highness, no one is afraid of the lower officials!" Sun Jiali was the first to speak.

"No matter who it is, if he dares to send someone to assassinate the prince, he will die!"

"That's right!"

Cheng Yanjin also said: "Sun County Order, with my support for you, you can boldly handle the case!" As long as the evidence is conclusive, in front of the emperor, this official will ensure that you are safe, and it is possible to be added to the rank of knight! ”

"Thank you, General!"

Sun Jiali was very proud at the moment.

Looking at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, who can climb Cheng Biting Jin and Li Zhi at the same time? I'm afraid it's just him!

It's not impossible to soar in the future!

……

To make sure that the message is not leaked.

The process of handling the case is not open to the public.

Ordinary cases in Chang'an County were transferred to Wannian County.

The county government office was closed.

Investigate the Assassin's case with all its might.

At noon.

Li Zhi squinted for a while, and when he was dazed, he heard the prompt sound of the system in his head: "The bear child system triggers a side quest, detects the assassination case, and rewards 10 attributes of intelligence!" ”

Host: Li Zhi.

Gender: Male.

Age: 3 years old.

Force: 15

Intelligence: 119 (Transcendental)

Speed: 41

Politics: 66

Glamour: 72

System Function: Infinite Healing

……

Li Zhi rolled over and hurriedly glanced at the attribute interface.

Intelligence has reached 119 points!

If you add another 10 points, absolutely awesome intelligence!

"Sun Jiali, Sun Jiali...... Hurry up and solve the case! Li Zhi ran to the front hall.

Sun Jiali has made all the preparations.

"Returning to His Royal Highness, the relevant personnel of Wuhou Shop have all been arrested, a total of more than 300 people. are more or less related to this case. Now is the moment of opportunity...... As long as one of them confides, things will be much easier! Sun Jiali is full of confidence.

With so many people, there are always people who know the truth.

"General Cheng and I are just here to support you, and we don't participate in the details of the case, you figure it out yourself, and we just need the result. Be bold! Li Zhi said.

"Yes!"

That's what Sun Jiali wanted.

He sent people to interrogate the people of Wuhou Shop.

Interrogate yourself the Assassin who participated in the assassination last night.

In the prison of the county government, all kinds of torture instruments were laid down.

Li Zhi and Cheng Yanjin were on the side.

Sun Jiali sat in the middle, and without saying a word, he began to torture: "First plug their mouths to prevent biting their tongues and committing suicide!" ”

The officials on the side did so.

"Everybody splints until they break their fingers......."

Sun Jiali is also a ruthless person, and before he asked a word, he had to clip off the prisoner's fingers, which was also incredible.

Cheng Yanjin couldn't get used to his abuse of lynching, and was ready to stop it.

Li Zhi grabbed him: "These assassins are innocent of death, and a few of their fingers will be cut off, but they will be punished slightly!" If they don't reveal the truth, it is also very reasonable to cut them with a thousand knives and put them to death! ”

Hiss......

Cheng Yanjin couldn't believe it, these words came out of the mouth of a three-year-old doll!

"Ah......h Torture has already begun. More than a dozen assassins were put on sticks and their fingers were forcibly clipped, and the cruelty of the criminal law was daunting.
