Chapter 588: Clues

Soon after leaving the stall, Zhang Xiaowu returned to the Central Governor's Office, and the other Central Governors were not here, although the Central Governor's power was also very high, but it seemed that except for Zhang Xiaowu, the other Central Governors had their own jobs, so that the Central Mansion became Zhang Xiaowu's office alone.

There was no one in the empty central mansion, he walked to the bookshelf, stared at the books on the shelves, looked at the various books on the shelves, but his mind was not on the books at all. He thought back to what Xiangshi said today, whether he was a liar or not, but these words made him vaguely wake up in his heart. He suddenly realized one thing, since he became the central commander, he seemed to have rarely put his mind on intelligence, and Hu Sanwan, who was in charge of intelligence, was also a little careless, and Yinyiwei's intelligence came entirely from Longdu Well. And all the outside information of Zhang Xiaowu came from Jin Yiwei and Wang Jingzhi.

"It's always dangerous to give your ears and eyes to someone else." Zhang Xiaowu thought of this, so he asked Hu Sanwan to call. After Hu Sanwan came, Zhang Xiaowu saw that he seemed to have gained a lot of weight, and his front teeth became big gold teeth. He asked Hu Sanwan if he had found any news recently, what Chen Guanxi was doing recently, Hu Sanwan shook his head and said that he had not found any information, the empire has been smooth recently, the country and the people are safe, except for the war situation in the south of the Yangtze River, there is no major event in the empire of singing and dancing. However, Chen Guanxi is no longer in Longdu, he was investigating a case recently and went to Wuguan County.

"He went to Wuguan County, why? What case? ”

"It was entrusted by Wang Xiaojian, an old friend from the past, the leader of the Beggar Gang, that Chen Gen, the strong hand of the Nine Bags Elder of the Beggar Gang, was killed in Wuguan County."

"The vendetta of the rivers and lakes, why did you report the case? How did the Criminal Department manage the rivers and lakes? ”

There are 24 divisions under the Criminal Department, which are respectively supervised by Zuo Shilang and Right Shilang, and Zuo Shilang is in charge of 18 divisions, which are the Arrest Division and the Hunzhou Criminal Investigation Division, the Daizhou Criminal Investigation Division, and the Jiangzhou Criminal Investigation Division, which are specifically responsible for the investigation and handling of homicide cases in various state capitals. The right squire is in charge of six divisions, which are respectively responsible for personnel, property, case files, logistics, criminal code, etc. Chen Guanxi took the initiative to apply, hoping to study in the Criminal Department, so Zhang Xiaowu asked him to go to the Arrest Department of the Criminal Department to study, and this stuffy gourd really studied the criminal investigation case.

Zhang Xiaowu learned that Chen Guanxi liked to investigate cases, so he didn't let people disturb him, everyone has their own favorite things to do, since Chen Guanxi likes to be a fast catcher, he can let him go. But Chen Guanxi has a dual identity, in addition to the arrest of the arrest department, he is also one of the heads of the Yinyiwei intelligence agency, and this time Chen Guanxi went to Wuguan County to send a vendetta to the rivers and lakes, which made Zhang Xiaowu feel strange.

Hu Sanwan explained: "The strong hand Chen Gen was not killed by ordinary instruments, but by arrows, and the arrows were not ordinary arrows, they were snakes and arrows in the Western Regions. ”

"Snakebeard Arrows?" Zhang Xiaowu frowned, "The snake and arrow of the Uzi people? ”

"Yes." Hu Sanwan nodded and said, "It is indeed strange to use snakes and arrows in the Central Plains, unless the Uzi people kill people in the Central Plains." But the Uzi people don't have to use snake-bearded arrows to kill people, they can use whatever arrows they want, so as not to expose themselves. ”

"So the Criminal Department sent someone to investigate?"

"No, the Criminal Department didn't know about this matter, because the Wuguan County County Order didn't report it at all, but the people of the Beggar Gang found Elder Chen's body by themselves. Wang Xiaojian and we killed the enemy in Saibei, and he had seen snakes and arrows, so he felt that it was extraordinary, so he informed Chen Guanxi of this matter. Chen Guanxi was entrusted by Wang Xiaojian and led people to Wuguan County. ”

"When did this happen?"

"Three days ago."

"You immediately send someone to Wuguan County to pick up Chen Guanxi."

"Okay."

When Zhang Xiaowu saw that Hu Sanwan was leaving, he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Is Wang Daxia the leader of the beggar gang now?" ”

"Yes, he's already the leader of the beggar gang."

When it was nearly evening, Zhang Xiaowu was about to go home, when he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and then heard hurried footsteps and rushed to the Central Mansion. He walked out to take a look, but saw Hu Sanwan pulling Chen Guanxi to come in a hurry, Chen Guanxi said with horror: "My lord, it's not good. ”

"What?"

"A traitor has been found in Wuguan County."

"Traitor, where traitor?"

"In the col of Wuguan Mountain, Wuguan County, there is a rebel army hidden, I hid in Wuguan County for a day and a night, and finally found out from their rations that the rebels are from the Western Regions, and they have eaten a kind of thing that only the Western Regions have, called cumin. And I can see from the amount of water they take every day, there are about 3,000 of them. After comparing the Empire's data, I couldn't find anywhere where 3,000 troops would be stationed here. So I expanded the scope of the investigation and found a news from the Western Regions in the case file, saying that a group of soldiers of the Qinglong Army had fled to the Western Regions and occupied other countries in the Western Regions, and the leaders of this group were Gu Junshi and Li Cunyi. I wanted to continue the investigation, but they were too cunning and cautious, so I had to go back to Longdu first and report back to you. It was rare for Chen Guanxi to say so many words, but his thinking was clear, his language was concise and to the point, and he described the importance of this matter vividly, "My lord, Wuguan County was originally the base camp of the Xuanwu Army, and the Xuanwu Army had 10,000 troops in Wuguan County, but why couldn't the Xuanwu Army find these 3,000 soldiers from the Western Regions?" I suspect there must be a conspiracy. ”

Zhang Xiaowu's hairs stood up suddenly, and he immediately thought of one thing, the Xuanwu Army is now the largest armed force in Longdu Mansion, the Xuanwu Army has 30,000 soldiers, while the Qinglong Army has only 10,000, the Vermilion Bird Army has only 2,000, the White Tiger Army has 3,000, and the Yinyi Guard has 15,000 people, so the total number of troops in the Xuanwu Army is almost equal to the sum of all other armies.

He didn't care about the Xuanwu Army and the commander of the Xuanwu Army, Bian Wen, but now it seems that he treats the villain with the heart of a gentleman, but fortunately, it is not too late at this time. He immediately ordered: "Immediately notify Wu Song to urgently assemble the silver-clothed guards, and by tomorrow morning, all the 15,000 silver-clothed guards will gather in the Yinyiwei Mansion in Jixiangfang." ”

"Yes."

"In addition, inform the brothers in the old camp to hurry to the Yinyi Guard's Mansion."

"Yes."

After Chen Guanxi and Hu Sanwan left, Zhang Xiaowu was restless, he didn't know where this uneasiness came from, maybe his reaction was a little excessive, just because the Xuanwu Army hid 3,000 soldiers from the Western Regions? Or is it because he sensed a trace of conspiracy from Chen Guanxi's speculation, especially those soldiers from the Western Regions are very likely to be Gu Yong.

If it was Gu Yong, why did he come to Wuguan County, Longdu Prefecture, why did he hide under his nose, what conspiracy did he have? In a state of anxiety, a little eunuch suddenly came to the Central Palace, saying that Tang Guifei had something to ask for, and asked the Central Princesses to go to the West Palace.
