Chapter XXXIV
Guo Ting threw the firewood on his back next to the kitchen door, straightened his waist, squinted his eyes, turned around abruptly, and rushed out of the door, his steps were like swallows flying lightly, his hands were like tigers probing his claws, and the actions in series were swept like a gale, instantly capturing the people hiding in the corner of the kitchen outside the kitchen.
This is a young man dressed in brown clothes, who was tightly wrapped around his neck by Guo Ting's big hands like iron tongs, slammed downward, and fell to the ground. The man's face was twisted with horror and pain, and he had no idea when he had been discovered.
"Say! Who are you? Why are you hiding in the shadows and watching me? Guo Ting asked loudly.
The man was firmly pinched by Guo Ting, unable to speak at all, he pointed to Guo Ting's hand with both hands, and then shook it again, indicating that he could not do the action of "speaking".
Guo Ting had to slightly loosen some of his strength, so that the other party could breathe.
The man coughed twice, and said, "I am a guard of the Tiwei Mansion, and I was ordered to investigate your whereabouts, because I suspect that you are related to an assassination. After speaking, he took out the token of Tiwei Mansion from his bosom and showed it to the other party to prove that what he said was true.
Guo Ting was angry: "What words! I'm a good citizen, and I have a serious business to take care of, so why bother to do assassination! โ
With that, he threw Natiwei to the ground like throwing firewood.
The guard rubbed his sore waist, got up, and said to Guo Ting: "We are only suspicious, and we have not confirmed your crime, and there are two other suspects besides you, if you really didn't do it, naturally we won't do anything to you." โ
Guo Ting snorted coldly: "What I hate most is being suspected." โ
As soon as the words fell, a black shadow came in from outside the courtyard, Guo Ting's eyebrows furrowed angrily, and he shouted: "Who the hell is it?" โ
Just as he was about to go over, Tiwei hurriedly stepped forward to stop: "Don't do it, he is also Tiwei, probably there is news for me." โ
The person who climbed over the wall was dressed in black, covered his face, and was slightly embarrassed when he saw himself and the suspect standing together, and then said to Natiwei: "Lu Touling, the assassin has been determined to be Dou Yin, and the suspicion of Guo and Kou has been ruled out, and the investigator is ordered to return to stand by quickly." โ
Tiwei fork bowed: "Yes." โ
After the man in black finished speaking, he didn't linger any longer, and immediately turned around and left over the wall.
Natiwei said to Guo Ting: "I have found the real murderer, your suspicion has been ruled out, and there is no need to continue to observe, then I will leave first." โ
"Wait."
Tiwei was about to walk in the direction of the wall, Guo Ting behind him suddenly patted his shoulder, Tiwei's hair suddenly stood on end, and he turned back tremblingly: "Big brother, I eat public dinner, but I am only ordered to do things, if you want to beat people out of anger, you shouldn't look for me." โ
Guo Ting smiled: "Anyway, I do some hard work every day in the teahouse, and I'm bored, aren't you guys handling a case?" Can you please let me join? Catch a thief or something, maybe I can help. โ
"Huh?"
Tiwei was dumbfounded.
The Eastern Imperial City, Jingming Palace, Youzheng
"How can the imperial brother be like this!"
Song Milling stood up, trembling with anger, and his face was pale.
Song Qi on the side was silent, not knowing what to say.
As soon as Song Mo returned to the palace, Song Qi hurriedly came, mysteriously pulled him into the study, and told Song Mo all the things that Song Yu had planned.
Song Qi sighed: "It's really wrong for the eldest brother to do this, for today's plan, only the fifth brother, you can take the lead today, in order to break the idea of the eldest brother, if it is until tomorrow, it will be too late." โ
Song Mo put his hands on Song Qi's shoulders, and said pleading with his eyes: "Good brother, tell the fifth brother quickly, what should the fifth brother do?" โ
"Now there is no other way but to let Concubine Rong play her father and emperor now, and allow her to ask for a kiss to be hired, so that this situation can be solved." Song Qi offered a plan.
Song Mo waved his hand and said: "No, my father's focus today is on the queen's birthday banquet, how can you be in the mood to care about me?" Besides, this kind of thing is not in a hurry for my father to do, even if he says it, he must ask me to talk about it tomorrow, and besides, the queen mother and my mother have said that they will see Shu Yue tomorrow, and I will hire them today, wouldn't it refute the face of the queen mother? How will I face my mother in the future? โ
"Fifth brother, there is really no other way, tomorrow, the eldest brother suddenly inserts this kick in the middle, who do you think the queen mother will help? Naturally, I want to help my own son-in-law! Even if the queen mother will help you, but you and your eldest brother stand in front of Lord Zhao, one is the current prince, and the other is the prince who has no power, who do you think Lord Zhao will choose? โ
Song Qi analyzed the problem, Song Mo listened to it more and more coldly, every sentence broke his liver and intestines, and suddenly felt weak, he sat down on the chair, and the heart-piercing tears slowly slipped from the corners of his eyes, as if the whole person's spirit had been drained away.
Song Qi was also very uncomfortable when he saw Song Mill like this, frowning and sighing.
At this time, he suddenly saw a Ruyi made of red jade on the cabinet behind Song Mill, and its handle was wrapped in gold, with the words "Congratulations to the fifth emperor brother on his birthday, and his sister Wan'er gave it".
It was a gift from their sister, Princess Mingyue Song Wan'er, on Song Miao's birthday last year.
Song Qi's eyes rolled, and he asked Song Miao, "Fifth brother, did the thirteenth sister slip out of the palace again?" โ
Song Mo then replied: "It should be, that crazy girl, after learning a few kung fu tricks, she runs outside every day." โ
Song Qi said happily: "Fifth brother, then I have a way again." โ
Song Miao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he instantly bounced up from the chair, his face full of excitement: "Eleventh brother, if there is any way, tell me quickly." โ
Eastern Capital, East City, Jingkangfang, Tiwei Mansion, Youmo
Xiao Chongguang and Lu Yunsheng took off the official mansion and changed into their usual ordinary clothes like all the guards.
According to Xiao Chongguang's strategy, it is to let the servants of Jingzhao Mansion wear the official clothes of the guards and inspect the twelve squares like the guards, and if there is really trouble, the officers can attract the attention of these people.
And the real guards are scattered and lurking all over the twelve squares in the appearance of the people in the city, so that once there is a change, they can wait for the opportunity to act to curb anything that may happen, and besides, there are many secret guards in the city that were arranged in the early years of the guard mansion can also be answered, so it is equivalent to arranging a big net in the city, and anyone who dares to mess around can be captured by this big net.
Tiwei and the messenger have already rushed to the planned location according to the plan, and the big thing is decided, and now Sogo and Yunsheng are going to meet that Ji Yun and ask him to "go out of the mountain" to help.
According to Lu Yunsheng, Ji Yun now runs a pharmacy in Guangdefang in Xishi, and in addition to selling medicines, he will also help people diagnose their pulses by the way.
Ji Yun went to Youzhou in his early years, and studied medicine under the medicine king An Daozi, and then due to a mistake, he broke the bottle containing the test potion, which caused the new formula developed by An Daozi to fall short, and in anger, he was driven out of the division, and Ji Yun then threw himself into the Wuji Sect in Yuzhou to practice martial arts.
Wuji Sect is one of the three major sects today, as famous as Xiafeng Valley, as early as two hundred years ago, the sect was established, there are countless disciples, and the outstanding ones are even more famous.
Just looking at Ji Yun's place of mentorship is enough to prove that his martial arts are by no means ordinary, and he is qualified to let Xiao Chongguang personally invite him.
Just as the two of them were about to stop and were about to go out, suddenly a guard walked quickly in front of Xiao Chongguang, bowed his head and knelt down and said, "Xiao Tou, my subordinates should be damned, I'm causing you trouble." โ
"Trouble? What do you mean? Xiao Chongguang asked with a puzzled frown.
Lu Yunsheng recognized him and said, "Aren't you the Le Shen of the third team?" I remember sending you to monitor Guo Ting before. What's the matter, what happened to Guo Ting? โ
Le Shen said hesitantly: "I, I was discovered by him, and then ยทยทยทยทยทยท"
Xiao Chongguang said: "You have a conflict? โ
Conflict? If there was a real conflict, I would have been dismantled a long time ago.
Le Shen muttered secretly in his heart, and said: "He knows that we are investigating the case, and he is quite interested in it, so he sent me over to tell the two adults that he asked to participate in the investigation of this case and wanted to catch the thief." โ
Xiao and Lu looked at each other when they heard this, and the suspect wanted to investigate the case after eliminating suspicion, which was the first time they had heard of this kind of thing.
Lu Yunsheng pondered for a while and said, "You go back and tell him, let him wait a little longer, this matter still needs to be discussed." โ
"Do you still need to discuss this little thing?"
Before Yunsheng's words fell, a loud voice sounded, and everyone followed the prestige, only to see a man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, thick eyebrows and big eyes, holding his hands on his chest, wearing a white coat, standing at the gate of the Tiwei Mansion.
Le Shen said: "Two adults, he is Guo Ting. โ
Sogo crossed his hands and said: "It turns out that this is Guo Ting Guo Daxia, who has been admired for a long time, and a certain is Xiao Chongguang, the head of the Tiwei Mansion." โ
Yunsheng also said: "Deputy Guard Chief Lu Yunsheng." โ
Guo Ting replied with his hands crossed: "I have long heard of Tiwei Mansion, and I have cracked many big cases, and even my eyes can be rehabilitated by wiping my eyes decades ago, which is really admirable and admired for a long time. โ
Xiao Chongguang said: "Guo Daxia praised it falsely, but he is just doing things for the country and returning justice to the people." โ
"I heard that Guo Daxia wants to participate in this case?" Yunsheng asked straight to the point.
Guo Ting said: "Yes, I have this intention. I hope that the two adults will be fulfilled. โ
"It stands to reason that since Guo Daxia has ruled out suspicion, he naturally has nothing to do with this case, and there is no need to pursue it further. But why do you have to be involved in such a dangerous case? Ordinary people seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but Guo Daxia, you do the opposite, which is really incomprehensible. Yunsheng directly expressed his doubts.
Guo Ting scratched his head and smiled: "I know that this request is very sudden, and it is unacceptable at once. But the two adults probably don't know that I had been a head catcher for a period of time in the early years, in Datong County, Xuzhou. Later, because an old friend invited me to run his family's dart game together, I had to resign under the hospitality, and now I think about it, which is quite a pity. Now, there is such a case in front of me, which has made me get involved with half a foot, and I hope to take this opportunity to contribute to the court again. โ
