Chapter 144: Madness
In the imperial palace and the imperial study, Emperor Yan looked at the savage-like iron catcher in front of him, and his heart was full of shock.
"Are you sure what you're saying?" Emperor Yan asked with a cold face.
"Your Majesty, the villain dares to vouch for his life, the information investigated by the villain is absolutely true, you only need to send someone to verify." The iron catcher took out the information hidden close to him, and looked cautious.
The document smelled of sweat, apparently caused by the fact that it had been hidden by the Iron Catcher for too long.
Gonggong Qing took the information, his brows furrowed slightly, his eyes looked at Emperor Yan, and he asked cautiously, as if as long as Emperor Yan looked at him, he could destroy this information.
It's just that Emperor Yan didn't reply to his eyes, but stretched out his hand to take it, and Gonggong Qing hurriedly offered it with both hands.
Although Emperor Yan disliked the smell in his heart, his face was not obvious at all, and he comforted Tie Zhutou, saying that Tie Zhutou had worked hard, and he would definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, and no matter who made the shot, he would be brought to justice.
Tie Zhutou was very moved, kneeling there and couldn't help but cry, the brothers who went with him were all dead, Tie Zhutou didn't know how to face the families of those brothers, ashamed of their families.
Yan looked at the confession on it, the testimony and the handprints, including the guarantors, some of whom couldn't write their names, so they drew a circle and pressed a fingerprint.
Judging from this investigation, there was indeed a backflow of mountains and rivers in Xishan at that time, and it was even mentioned that a stone tablet was unearthed with a line of words engraved on it.
The five sons of the dead swallow are also!
Isn't the fifth prince talking about the five princes?
Anyway, when Tie Zhutou visited this period, the first target of suspicion was the five princes, and Emperor Yan was silent with a gloomy face.
There is an objection to the word five sons, it can be said that there are five people, or it can be said that it is the fifth son, the fifth in line!
Emperor Yan's heart chuckled, fifth!
Is that him!
Emperor Yan sat there and his heart was tumbling, five sons, five sons, what does it mean?
It was difficult to figure it out for a while, Emperor Yan suppressed his thoughts, and asked the whereabouts of the stele of Tie Zhutou, but was told that the stele disappeared that night after it was unearthed.
Subsequently, there was a murder at the foot of Xishan Mountain, and the good village was destroyed into ruins, and there was no one alive.
Emperor Yan sent away the iron catcher, turned his head to look at Gonggong Qing, who immediately stepped forward and knelt down and said: "Back to the emperor, all the witnesses mentioned by the head of the iron catcher died mysteriously.
The cause of death has not yet been ascertained, some of them died in the fields, some died in the beds in the courtyard, in short, none of them survived. ”
"So there is no evidence for this matter." Emperor Yan gritted his teeth, and then asked, "Is there any movement in the flying eagle?" ”
"Back to the emperor, the flying eagles are active in Xishan, but they are all under surveillance, and there is no change except for the normal investigation information." Qing Gonggong replied.
"Is there any change in Wu Anbo?" Emperor Yan asked again.
"Back to the emperor, Wu Anbo has not moved, and there are no people who have left Beijing to protect the people in the palace, and their activities out of the palace are also under surveillance." Father-in-law Qing returned.
Gonggong Qing didn't quite understand why the emperor suddenly cared about Wu Anbo's affairs, Wu Anbo had been busy with official business during this time, and he had not deserted.
Emperor Yan snorted, and then asked, "Have you found out the identity of the person who assassinated the Iron Catcher?" ”
"From the clues, it should be the guards secretly trained by the five princes, and their mission is to assassinate, but there is no evidence, and those guards disappeared under the surveillance of the falcons and disappeared to find their whereabouts."
Father-in-law Qing lowered his head again, wanting to shoot his subordinates to death, they all grew up eating something, can they be a little more stupid?
"The Fifth Killer!" Emperor Yan muttered to himself, not at all surprised by the killing guards, obviously knowing about the existence of this personnel for a long time.
Gonggong Qing didn't reply, he knew that he didn't need to reply at this time, and Emperor Yan wasn't asking him, Emperor Yan was thinking about the problem.
has been by Emperor Yan's side for a long time, and Gonggong Qing has also figured out some of Emperor Yan's small habits.
Could it be that the case back then was really done by Concubine Lin? She's damned on that!
"Iron Cliff is back, and there was a head catcher who was missing at that time, has that person been found?"
Emperor Yan asked again, he was a suspicious person and would never believe anyone's words.
"That little catcher hasn't been found yet." Father-in-law Qing wants to pump himself, but today is not going well, and he hasn't done anything well, and he is afraid that Emperor Yan will be mad.
Fate is so strange, the more afraid of something, the more something happens, Emperor Yan really went crazy, grabbed the inkstone on the table and smashed it at Gonggong Qing.
Father-in-law Qing did not dodge or avoid greeting with his head, so Father-in-law Qing's head was sinned, and a blood hole was smashed out, blood gurgled and Father-in-law Qing was dizzy.
From his own injury, Gonggong Qing judged that the emperor was already angry, don't open your mouth at this time, don't do anything, let the emperor attack is the way to save his life.
When the emperor vents that evil spirit, he will take pity on him and reward him with some sweetness.
It's not as good as a dog to be a slave, Father-in-law Qing pity his head, this is the first time he has greeted the inkstone, and he can't remember it himself.
Fortunately, after he retreats, he can still take out his anger on others, but he doesn't have to worry about succumbing to himself.
Emperor Yan pointed at Gonggong Qing's nose and scolded, he spent so much silver to cultivate a falcon, what kind of thing did he raise? Rubbish!
I can't even find out this little thing, where did the face appear in front of him, where did the face lead him?, the face~!
After venting for a while, when Father-in-law Qing felt that he was about to die, Emperor Yan finally gave up and kicked Father-in-law Qing away to let the old dog get out.
Father-in-law Qing thanked him and knew that it was time to bandage his wounds.
However, before Gonggong Qing left, Emperor Yan announced that he would let Wu Anbo come to see him.
Gonggong Qing responded again and again, knowing what Emperor Yan asked Wu Anbo to do, it must be for the case in the mouth of the iron catcher.
Gonggong Qing bandaged it quickly, and before Wu Anbo arrived, he was already waiting outside the imperial study, and as the intelligence chief, he was also very concerned about the movements of the flying eagle.
If the Flying Eagle investigates the truth one step ahead of the falcon this time, then the falcon's small life will be miserable.
Wu Anbo was ordered to enter the imperial study, and at this time the imperial study had been cleaned up, and there was no mess to be seen, and the blood stains on the ground had also been wiped clean.
Emperor Yan looked at Wu Anbo, who was kneeling in front of the case, his eyes were quite complicated, and after a long time, Emperor Yan asked, "What do you think of Xishan's case." ”
Emperor Yan did not take out the information from the iron catcher's investigation, nor did he plan to share the content of the information.
"Feiying is still investigating, there is no breakthrough at present, the other party is an expert, he is very careful, and the traces are very clean."
Wu Anbo responded calmly, his words reassured Gonggong Qing, Wu Anbo didn't know as much as him, at least he knew that the killing of the five princes was very suspicious.
Displeasure flashed across Emperor Yan's face, and he asked again, "Are there any suspicious targets?" ”
