On the fourteenth day of the first month, the Criminal Department began to investigate the eleventh day of Concubine Hui's violent death.

Rong Yu, who Wang Laohu was waiting for, finally returned.

"Childe, these dead eunuchs in Dongchang are not easy to deal with, they are very vigilant, and this set of news is very difficult." Rong Yu said.

Wang Laohu had already expected that it would not be easy to find out the news in the East Factory, let alone Rong Yu, who had not undergone special training: "Rong Yu, hard work, this East Factory is the intelligence agency of the Ming Dynasty, and he is an agent himself, how can he let you hear the information so much." Although Wang Laohu was a little disappointed by this, he still didn't complain about Rong Yu.

"But Childe, although I didn't hear any useful information, I also got a piece of news. A few days ago, Dongchang sent people to look for sachets, and the location was near where the girl was killed. ”

"Okay, you Rongyu, you're still being cautious, pinching and hiding it for me. Who are you listening to?"

"It's not that I can't inquire about this Dongchang, so I asked a few little eunuchs, and one of the little eunuchs got close to the people from Dongchang, and what he told me was that Lord Zhu Yao sent someone to find it, and it seems that he has not been found."

"Okay, that's what I wanted. Rong Yu, you go and invite Master Cao and others to come to me immediately. ”

All the members of Concubine Hui's violent death were present.

"Lord Cao, Rong Yu has already inquired about an important news, this Lord Zhu Yao is looking for the sachet of this pearl girl, this coincides with my thoughts, the next step I want to do is to arrest Zhu Yao. Master Cao, what do you think? Wang Laohu said with a heavy face.

Lord Cao was also very cautious about this matter, "Prince Wang, this arrow is sent out, but it can't be recovered, you must know this Dongchang, even the emperor doesn't dare to touch him easily." ”

"It is precisely because this matter involves a lot of people and will touch some people that I invited Lord Cao to come over and discuss."

"Wang Gongzi, is the evidence in our hands enough to move him now?"

"It's all just speculation on our part, not on real evidence."

"Then are we doing this matter a little suspenseful, if it is bitten back by that Zhu Yao, it is needless to say that you and I are not guaranteed, maybe we will even affect the emperor."

"If you don't arrest him, it's hard to get evidence from Dongchang or him, although this is the next resort, but it's the only way we can go."

"Since the prince insists on doing this, I no longer insist, can this matter be reported to the emperor first, and let the emperor make a decision."

"Lord Cao, during the investigation, I said that I want the initiative and the right to act, so we will no longer ask the emperor. There are three purposes for this, one is that without further ado, this arrow is on the bow and has to be sent. Second, I am afraid that the news will be leaked, and the fewer people who know the news, the better. Third, it is also to dissociate ourselves from the emperor, in case our action fails, it will not affect the emperor. ”

"Then we have to think of a foolproof strategy, tomorrow is the fifteenth Lantern Festival, this young person, Dongchang is not in a hurry."

"The action is scheduled for this afternoon, I noticed that Zhu Yao will go to some alleys in the capital in the afternoon of the next few days, and go to Changheng Restaurant to eat and drink for nothing, Rong Yu and three personal guards are responsible for catching Zhu Yao in the box of Changheng Restaurant, Pan Tai and a personal guard are responsible for searching Zhu Yao's room, hoping to gain something, pay attention, and make a quick decision. Don't give Zhu Yao any chance to escape. ”

"Wang Gongzi, what about you and me?"

"You and I are here waiting for their good news."

Just as Wang Laohu guessed, this Zhu Yao took a subordinate to the streets and alleys of the capital in the afternoon to show off his might, and took the opportunity to collect some people's fat and people's ointment. After that, he went straight to Changheng Restaurant. The shopkeeper said that he had a bitterness, and when he saw Zhu Daguan, he had to greet him with a smile.

"My lord, or is it the old position?"

Zhu Yao glared at the shopkeeper, and his subordinates said, "Blind your eyes, so much nonsense, don't hurry up and get the wine." ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "My lord, you go upstairs first, and this wine and food will come soon." As soon as the person turned around, he kept scolding behind his back: "Dog officer, I will poison you sooner or later." ”

The wine soon went to the box, Zhu Yao sat down in the first place, his subordinates stood aside, picked up the wine jug, poured a bowl of wine for Zhu Yao, nodded and said, "My lord, your wine." ”

"Count your knowledge, you kid follow me, it's good for you." Zhu Yao took a sip and said.

"My lord, how dare I want you to benefit, as long as I can eat with a mouthful of food, I will be satisfied."

"You kid, I know you have something to say, what's the matter, I gave you too little."

"Oh, my lord, look at what you said, others just want to be with adults, and you don't have this blessing?"

"Your boy's mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter. Well, this benefit won't be lost to you. ”

There were some arguments downstairs, and Zhu Yao scolded: "Where did the noise come from, disturbing my drinking." You, go down and take a look. ”

The men put down the flask and went out with their knives.

Zhu Yao took the wine jug alone and poured himself a drink. A sip of wine, a sip of food, and a little song in the mouth, this fairy-like day. Feeling that a long time had passed, and his subordinates had not returned, Zhu Yao scolded: "It will take a long time to find out something, you kid can't do the right thing or what." ”

Zhu Yao stood up, and just as he wanted to go out, a knife was already on his neck. Zhu Yao slowly retreated to the right, and the two walked in one after the other, led by Rong Yu.

Zhu Yao looked at the two brocade guards in front of him, and said with a smile: "Who did I think it was?" It turned out to be the Jinyi Wei brothers, put the knife down so as not to be injured by mistake. ”

"I wish you, my lord, that we are also acting on orders. Don't embarrass us. Rong Yu said.

"You can't be mistaken, I Zhu Yao doesn't seem to have committed anything, you use a knife and a gun like this, but who ordered you."

"I wish my lord, if there is anything wrong, tell us adults, we are just acting according to orders, and we don't know anything else."

Zhu Yao knew that the person who came was not good, "It seems that this brother has arrested me and sent me back." ”

"We're also eating together, I wish you lords, let's go."

Zhu Yao pretended to be captured, and followed Rong Yu honestly, but in fact, his eyes rolled and he was thinking of tricks in his head.

Inadvertently, Zhu Yao dodged Rong Yu's knife, shrank to the right, rolled to the ground, rolled in the box, and said: "You boy who is neither male nor female, you want to arrest me, you are still a little tender." ”

"Lord Zhu, it seems that you are trying to resist arrest."

"Now it's up to you to see if you have what it takes to catch me."

"Okay, I'll arrest you alone." At the same time, he said to his personal guard, "You guard the door. ”

Zhu Yao pulled out his knife and shouted. Rong Yu greeted Zhu Yao, the two knives collided together, splashing sparks, Zhu Yao picked up the big knife, a few horizontal slashes, there are tables and chairs in the box, this big knife is not thrown away, in the horizontal slash, there is a table that is cut, pieces of sawdust flying, Rong Yu bent down to avoid the edge of the knife, a sweeping foot hit Zhu Yao down the plate, Zhu Yao jumped up to avoid it.

"It seems that you boy who is neither male nor female has two more hits." Zhu Yao gasped.

"I'm more than these two hits, if you are caught now, I can spare you and save you from the pain of flesh and skin."

"Joke! I, Zhu Yao, am not a useless person, and my martial arts are not learned in vain. ”

Zhu Yao took an arrow step, and stabbed again, the sound of the knife whirred, and the strength was so great, it was slashed on the table, and the table must be shattered. Rong Yu took out the self-defense knife, and when Zhu Yao took out the knife, it had already slid to Zhu Yao's right, the knife was in his hand, and the knife was close to Zhu Yao's right arm, and the clothes were torn, and together with the arm inside, a deep cut was made.

With a "bang", the big knife fell to the ground.

The blood on Zhu Yao's right arm had already flowed out, and it had stained the sleeve of his shirt red.

"Zhu Yao, the weapon in your hand is gone, now what else do you have to resist my attack."

"I still have hands without weapons, I just miscalculated just now."

"Drink" Zhu Yao's hands are fists and palms, changing with each other, with true qi breathing, applause is like thunder, fists are like drums, left and right attacks, Rong Yu dodges left and right, and restrains each other. Zhu Yao's right arm was already injured, and blood was dripping straight down, which was relatively slow. Rong Yu saw the opportunity, strode forward, swam to Zhu Yao's right, grabbed Zhu Yao's right arm with both hands and interrupted it, twisted it hard, only to hear a "click", Zhu Yao's arm and shoulder joint had been dislocated, and Zhu Yao's screams sounded.

"Zhu Yao, you have no way out." Rong Yu said.
