"Help me, save me! I am the cousin of the eldest grandson Wuji......"

The man below had a look of ecstasy when he saw so many officials on the railing on the third floor, but when he saw those officials standing up and doing it again, his heart sank to the bottom and shouted with his last strength.

"It's not my generation's work to see death and not save people, why don't you go down and save people quickly?" Yan Liben glared at the officials and shouted angrily, and only then did those officials get up again and run downstairs.

Cai Cong didn't stop him from getting up and walking to the railing and looked coldly at the cousin of the eldest grandson Wuji, as soon as those men saw Cai Cong standing there, they slashed even harder, and soon ran into the alley with a knife.

By the time those officials ran to the first floor, they had already run away, leaving only a bloody corpse with two eyes staring at Cai Cong.

"What a misfortune! There was such a tragic death in Wuji's family, and Ben Hou inevitably had to give a silk gift. ”

Cai Cong said heavily, but his tone was cold and shivering. Yan Liben pointed at Cai Cong and said angrily: "Emperor Taishang Bintian is not long, it is not suitable to eat and drink, and this official will eat vegetarian dishes to give you face soon after you return." I didn't expect you to be so numb and cold-blooded, and this official is ashamed to be with you. ”

Yan Liben said and walked away, but the other officials did not have such confidence, so they could only sit in their places and say nothing. Cai Cong smiled slightly and said to everyone: "Colleagues, don't affect our mood for a dead person. ”

All colleagues immediately laughed and put the food in their mouths, a meal was not a taste at all, and they didn't get the news until the next day, the eldest grandson Wuji's cousin's house had a fire last night and the whole family died, this is a tragedy!

Cai Cong's performance last night made everyone suspect that it was him, but he continued to be familiar with the Ministry of Industry like no one else, and no one in the Ministry of Industry dared to discuss this matter.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Dai Zhou personally brought someone to the Ministry of Industry to invite Cai Cong to drink tea, and the Ministry of Industry did not fry the pot at this time.

"Chang'an Hou, you witnessed the murder outside the Taibai Building last night, and you also prevented Yan Shangshu from sending someone to stop it, but is there such a thing?"

Dai Xuan sat in the public hall and asked Cai Cong loudly, Cai Cong sat in the hall and nodded and said lightly: "I did witness this case, but Ben Hou didn't stop it, just said that it was more appropriate for Wuhou or Chang'an Ling to handle this matter." ”

"Bastard! What is the difference between witnessing a murder and not stopping it and being a murderer? Chang'an Hou, the people of Changsun Mansion said that the deceased coveted your Cai family's secret method of 100 steelmaking, and spent money to buy your Cai family's secret method, but because of this, you took revenge and destroyed the door? "Is Zhang Caicong still talking about human language?

"Oh? There is also this matter, then please ask Dai Shangshu to preside over justice, according to Tang Law, my Cai family's 100 steel-making secret method is worth 10,000,000 gold, this dead man should compensate me 10,000,000 gold, please compensate all the dead man's family property to Ben Hou. ”

"Hukou, the official is now asking you if you are full of murder?"

Dai Xuan's face turned red, he paid the most attention to Tang Lu, and Cai Cong's disregard for human life made him angry.

"Huh...... Dai Shangshu didn't want to open his mouth, Ben Hou saw that Ben Hou made people kill? That Ben Hou saw with his own eyes that my infant son and daughter were almost poisoned to death a few days ago, so isn't that Ben Hou going to kill his own children? ”

Cai Cong said lightly, Dai Zhou only felt chills all over his body, this is someone stabbing the hornet's nest! Before he could speak, a catcher outside the public hall ran in and said in a panic: "Something happened to Lord Shangshu, there were fifteen massacres this morning, all of them were relatives of powerful people and officials in the court. ”

"It seems that Dai Shangshu is busy with official business, so Ben Hou will not bother, if he needs Ben Hou's cooperation, even if he says a word, Ben Hou will leave first." Cai Cong said indifferently and got up and arched his hand and walked outside, Dai Zhou was sure that these people were killed by Cai Cong, but he didn't dare to force Cai Cong to stay.

He didn't have such a big reaction to Cai Cong's assassination a few years ago, and this time someone moved his children, that is, to cut off the incense of the Cai family, and whoever stands in the way of the immortal feud is the mortal enemy of the Cai family.

"Hurry up and investigate this matter, and the official can enter the palace to face the saint if he needs it." Dai Xuan felt that his feet were a little weak, this kind of major event had not happened since the founding of the country, and the inheritance of broken incense was endless, and the vassals under the names on both sides would also be involved, and there was no certainty about how many people would die.

Cai Cong returned to the mansion, where Xiao Liuzi was already waiting for him, and his gloomy face did not have his usual hippie smile at all.

"Haven't you found it yet?"

Cai Cong sat on the chair and asked in a calm tone, finding out so many potential hidden dangers, but still no trace of the murderer.

"Half of the people have been eliminated, but no one has been found, in addition to the sixteen people who have been cleaned up, there are also three children of the family, I don't know what to do?"

"Destroy the door! Taking this opportunity to dispose of the fleas, they did not dare to jump out to find trouble after eating a dumb loss. But these are small things, and the most important thing is to find out who did it to the child, and I will put him to death. ”

In the Taiji Palace, Dai Xuan walked anxiously outside the study, looking at the sky from time to time, he grabbed a passing attendant and asked anxiously: "Little father-in-law, how long will it take for Your Majesty to come back?" ”

"Back to this Shangguan's words, the official family prayed for the first emperor, and the time should be almost the same, you should be able to wait a little longer." The little chamberlain bowed down with a smile and left.

Wearing his palms and choking his wrists, he waited for half an hour before he heard the sound of His Majesty arriving, and Li Shimin walked over with a solemn face, as if he was still immersed in remembrance.

"Your Majesty!"

"Aiqing doesn't need to be polite, I heard from the palace people that you have been waiting for a long time, but what's the matter?"

Li Shimin walked to the study, and Dai Zhou hurriedly replied after him: "The minister does have an urgent report, there were sixteen tragic cases last night, and the dead were all officials of the DPRK and China or their relatives, including the cousin and nephew of the eldest grandson Wuji. ”

"Bastard! The Son of Heaven dares to commit murder at his feet, what do you do to eat? Has the thief been apprehended? ”

Li Shimin was immediately furious when he heard this, Dai Zhou hurriedly bowed down to confess, but he was infinitely aggrieved in his heart, and said: "The minister has preliminarily determined who the murderer was instructed by, but first, there is no evidence, and secondly, the case is more complicated, and the minister does not dare to make his own opinion, so he has come to ask His Majesty." ”

"Bastard, go to find it without evidence, the case is complicated? How complex can the case be? ”

Li Shimin roared loudly, if everything needs to be decided by him personally, then what else do these officials do?

"The minister is guilty, the minister has preliminarily concluded that these people were all sent by the Marquis of Chang'an to kill, as for the complexity of the case, it is because the minister learned that someone poisoned someone a few days ago and wanted to kill the infant children of the Marquis of Chang'an, fortunately it was found early, otherwise the Cai family would have sent the white-haired people to the black-haired people at this moment."
