Chapter 178: The whole city is locked down

I had never seen Xiao Yuan lose such a big temper, Ye Cheng stood below, bowed slightly, couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and hurriedly responded:

"Don't worry, my lord, I will pry open the assassin's mouth."

As he spoke, he prepared to bow and leave.

"Wait!" Xiao Yuan shouted to him, and his brows furrowed: "Ye Cheng, who do you say will attack Lord Liu?" It was when Lord Liu inspected the place. ”

Hearing this, Ye Cheng pondered for a moment, rolled his eyes, and said in a condensed voice: "What does the lord mean is that the assassin should be from Fengyang?" ”

"En......" Xiao Yuan pondered for a while, and said: "Whether it is from Fengyang or not, now that the assassin has been arrested, in order to prevent the mastermind behind the scenes from escaping, the entire Qin Land will be blocked, especially Fengyang County, and the whole city will be under martial law!" ”

"Yes! Humble will go down and arrange. Ye Cheng was shocked.

"In addition, I heard that it is fortunate that an officer from your headquarters arrived this time, otherwise, Lord Liu's life would be in danger." Xiao Yuan said again.

"Yes, my lord, at that time, Qi Ying happened to be investigating some old cases in the jurisdiction of Fengyang, and when he encountered this matter, he subdued the assassin." Ye Cheng replied.

"Qi Ying? The name sounds familiar. Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows and thought about it.

Ye Cheng hurriedly said: "This person is the name that the lord personally named at the beginning, and he was transferred from the ravine to the general mansion. ”

After being reminded by him, Xiao Yuan suddenly said: "Oh, yes, the official remembered it, this Qi Ying is good, young, very capable, his file, the official has also read it carefully, I have time, meet him." You go down first, this case must be handled well. ”

"Yes! Retired from his position. Ye Cheng saluted respectfully.

Wuwei Mansion.

At this time, the Assassin had already been brought to the headquarters and was being interrogated in prison.

After Ye Cheng came back, he first conveyed the blockade order as soon as possible, and then found Qi Ying and said to him: "Xiao Qi, you have made a great contribution this time, do you know, just now the official met the lord, but the lord mentioned your name!" ”

"What!?" When Qi Ying heard this, her eyes immediately widened.

Now Xiao Yuan's status is in the Qin Land, what is the difference between him and the king, he has to name him personally, can Qi Ying not be nervous and excited.

He was excited, and he didn't know what to say, but Ye Cheng said: "But don't take it lightly, this case is not over yet!" The lord is furious, and he must pry open the assassin's mouth! ”

As he spoke, he asked, "By the way, what about the Assassins?" ”

"Hu Wei is being interrogated." Qi Ying's tone was still full of excitement.

"Let's go, let's see." Ye Cheng waved his hand.

The two of them reached the dungeon, and before they could get closer, they could faintly hear the Assassin's howl.

"Say! Who instructed you? ”

"This kind of life is worse than death, isn't it pleasant! Why do you have to hold on! Say it and I'll give you a good time! ”

In prison, Hu Wei was questioning and tortured with his hands, but the assassin screamed but refused to let go.

After a while, Ye Cheng walked in, and when he saw him, Hu Wei hurriedly stepped forward, Shi Li bent down and said, "My lord." ”

"Well, how's it going?" Ye Cheng asked.

"This ......," Hu Wei paused, and said, "There is nothing to be gained for the time being, but give some time to humble the position, and no matter how hard the bones of this assassin are, he will have to speak." ”

Hearing this, Ye Cheng glanced at the assassin, and saw that his head was scattered, covered with blood, his appearance seemed to be faint, his head was lowered, and he couldn't help frowning slightly: "Don't kill him, this time the lord is furious, if you don't find out the mastermind behind the scenes, you and I will be implicated." ”

"I understand, please rest assured." Hu Wei swore and said: "Three days at most, he will definitely not be able to withstand it." ”

"Three days......" Ye Cheng muttered: "Three days, I'm afraid that the official will be reprimanded......"

Hearing this, Qi Ying said tentatively: "My lord, it's better to be like this, here Hu Wei continues to interrogate, and on the other side, he will go to Fengyang again to see what clues there are." ”

"What do you mean......"

"Imagine it, sir, who would send an assassin to assassinate Lord Liu? Lord Liu has no enmity with others, he is on the side of the lord, and the series of policies he has implemented are to benefit the people and benefit the people, more than among the people, such a good official, it is too late for the people of Qin to love him, and he will definitely not be assassinated, the only thing that can make enemies with him can only be those heroes, we can start from here. Qi Ying explained.

After hearing what he said, Ye Cheng couldn't help but move in his heart, and said, "Well, there is some truth in what you said, you go to Fengyang quickly." ”

"Yes!" Qi Ying clenched his fists and turned away.

The next day, the south gate of Fengyang.

Under Xiao Yuan's anger, he ordered the general government to issue an order, and at this time, the entire Fengyang, the four city gates, had already been under martial law by the soldiers, and pedestrians were not allowed to enter and exit.

This incident has already made a bit of a big fuss, but the people don't know what happened, and now at the city gate, countless people have already gathered.

Some people are pushing carts, some are carrying burdens, some people are going into the city to catch the market, some people are going out of the city to visit relatives, and pedestrians who come and go are gathered here.

The city gate was noisy, there were many soldiers, blocking the people, and in the crowd, Diao Fu finally squeezed to the front, and said to a soldier with a shy smile:

"Master Jun, why is the city closed?"

"Don't ask, don't ask! In short, in these two days, no one is allowed to enter or leave Fengyang! "The soldiers are tough.

"This ......" Hearing this, Diao Fu's heart tightened, he already knew that the assassin had been arrested, but he was afraid that the East Window incident would happen, and he was about to run away at this time, but now that the whole city is under martial law, and the city gates are heavily guarded, how can he get out.

After being choked for a while, he smiled again: "Oh, Master Jun, look at my goods, if you don't rush, it will be too late, and the goods will be lost, how is it good, please ask the military master to make it convenient......"

As he spoke, he quietly took out a piece of gold and secretly stuffed it to the soldiers.

Yo! Seeing this, the soldier's eyes couldn't help but light up.

This piece of gold is enough for ordinary people to be chic for a long time, and he was just about to stretch out his hand, but suddenly there was an angry shout behind him:

"What for!?"

Hearing this shout, the soldiers trembled, where did they dare to pick up the gold, but they pushed Diao Fu away, and scolded again and again: "Go, go!" Don't get in the way of the gates! ”

The latter was pushed and staggered, and when he saw an officer coming, he was a thief and hurriedly disappeared into the crowd.

The person who came was Qi Ying, he first glared at the soldiers, then looked at the back of Diao Fu leaving, and whispered to his subordinates: "Send someone to keep an eye on him." ”

"Yes." The men went away.

At this time, the people at the city gate also began to make an uproar, and some people coaxed and said:

"At this time in the past, the city had already been opened, why didn't you let us go out!"

"No trouble! This is an order to be kept! Up to three days, self-meeting to open the city! ”

Some officers shouted angrily.
