Chapter 246 Investigation~!
In front of the Lizheng Palace, there are singing and dancing, the dancers and musicians in the palace perform programs in the square in front of the palace, the officials laugh and talk, and the female dependents gather in groups of three or five to discuss their unique topics.
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is very busy now, busy accepting the praise of hundreds of officials in turn, and she can't show a little impatience on her face, Chu Yun still wants to ask her what is going on with Tai Chi, stealing a teacher is a big taboo in martial arts, how can you just compensate for thousands of taels ......of silver or something.
The princess and Xiangzhen gathered a lot of female dependents around them, and even Chu Yun and Li Yu were squeezed out of the tent, to say that in the entire Kyoto City, the most popular women among these powerful ladies and daughters are none other than the two.
As a monopoly of perfumes, Her Royal Highness the princess contributed, sitting in the palace to collect money, but she didn't care about these things, these people naturally targeted the fragrance marks and the princess, if they didn't do it in advance, they were afraid that when the time came out of the new perfume, they would have to wait for a few days to buy it.
It's still a woman's money to make the best money, I don't know how Zeng Shiyun's new bra is doing, I have the opportunity to go over to "appreciate and appreciate", and then give her some suggestions, lace hollowing or something of the erotic type can also be tried, for the benefit of the majority of male compatriots .......
Here in the fragrance shop, perfume has been widely accepted by women in Kyoto, and then slowly launch a full range of cosmetics in the future, I am afraid that it will not be long before he will become the man behind women all over the world, making countless male compatriots hate the root of their teeth.
Originally, he wanted to talk to Lao Ji, a mobile knowledge base, after the competition, but he just walked a god's kung fu, and he didn't know where to go, and a few gray-clothed people stood behind Emperor Xia in his place.
With regret in his heart, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a sight in front of him, Chu Yun turned his head to look and saw a palace beauty sitting on the side of Emperor Xia, looking at him coldly.
When the woman saw him look over, a hint of resentment appeared in her eyes, and then she slowly withdrew her gaze.
He patted Li Yu's shoulder beside him and asked softly, "That~, who is the ------ on the left of Your Majesty~?" ”
"Who~?" Li Yu looked over with some doubts, and after being stunned, his face changed slightly serious, and asked, "What are you asking Cui Guifei for~?" ”
Chu Yun's eyes froze, "She is Cui Guifei~?" ”
Cui Guifei is the biological mother of the King of Shu, and she is the daughter of the Cui family, a wealthy family with great influence in the Xia Kingdom Shilin and even in the court, and she beat the King of Shu herself, so she naturally will not have a good face for herself.
It's not a good thing to be remembered by a noble concubine, but Chu Yun is really itchy with lice now, and he is not in the court, and he doesn't go out of the door at home all day long, that is, basking in the sun, teaching the little maid, whether it is the Lu family or the Qin family, the king of Shu or some other king, there is no difference between offending a few more and offending a few less.
The reappearance of the auspicious old man diverted Chu Yun's attention, and he wanted to beckon him over, but seeing his gloomy face, he walked forward quickly, and Chu Yun's hand stretched out to greet stopped in the air.
A moment later, Chu Yun rarely saw Emperor Xia slap the table heavily, and the courtiers were shocked, and it didn't take long for a shocking news to spread~.
An envoy of the State of Chu died, and died in the Honglu Temple.
Regarding the death of his colleague, the envoys of the State of Chu were naturally very angry, and expressed strong condemnation and solemn protest to the monarchs and ministers of the State of Xia, ordering the State of Xia to hand over the murderer as soon as possible, otherwise they would not ensure that the State of Chu would not take any measures to impose severe sanctions on the behavior of the State of Xia~!
It is said that when today's son heard about this, he was very angry, and the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple were jointly responsible for the case, and the case was solved within a time limit.
As soon as the news of this incident came out, it quickly fermented, causing an uproar in Kyoto, and even more panicking the envoys of other countries.
The two countries are still at war and do not cut the envoys, this is an eternal iron law, not to mention that this is not on the battlefield, it is in the capital of the Xia State, in the residence arranged by the Xia State for the envoys of the Chu State, the envoys of other countries died in the Honglu Temple, what a bad diplomatic incident, a bad will escalate into a diplomatic conflict, the Xia State and the Chu State have just finished a war, if there is a war again, it is simply great for them------~!
Let's fight, let's fight, Chu and Xia, one is the overlord of the surrounding countries, and if it's okay, they bullied the weak countries next to them, and the other is a legend who has been bullied for many years and suddenly turned over and won the envy of all countries, it doesn't matter how they fight, standing in the position of the envoys of the rest of the countries, they are very happy to see this scene.
However, anticipation is one thing, curiosity is another.
Why did the Xia State kill the envoys of the Chu State, there is no reason at all~!
Although the envoys of the Chu State are indeed not something, these days in the capital of the Xia State to make wind and rain, the whole Kyoto is a mess, down to the courtiers to the Son of Heaven has no less headaches, but at least on the bright side, the literary and military tests are all dignified, even if the Xia monarchs and ministers are eager to get rid of them and hurry up, they will not really be stupid to choose Honglu Temple, the most unsuitable place to do it~.
When they return home, they secretly kill a few, and everyone can understand that it is so blatant, but it is a bit too much.
Of course, for Xia Guo's pretentious behavior, everyone just "just look at it", and as for the truth, they know ...... with their toes.
……...........
……...........
Having such a thing, Dali Siqing and the Criminal Department Shangshu naturally had no way to continue to participate in the banquet, and the two of them went out in person, even if they took people to Honglu Temple to collect evidence.
The deceased was an envoy of the Chu State, whose neck was broken by life and died, and died tragically in his room.
The door was closed, the window was wide open, and the murderer should have escaped through the window after killing people in the room.
It's just that this Honglu Temple is extremely heavily guarded, and it is difficult to sneak in, let alone quietly escape after killing the envoys of the Chu State, except for the corpses in the room, there is not even a clue, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department and the Dali Temple Qing frowned, this case is clueless, but His Majesty also gave a death order.
There was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door of the room, and I saw a few people rushing out, and the two of them frowned, and before they could speak, a thin young man took off the sign on his waist, handed it to the two, and said: "The secret spy department is doing things~, and the idle people are waiting to retreat~, and please cooperate with the two adults~." ”
Although the name of the secret spy department made countless courtiers tremble a few times when they heard it, but the two of them were high and powerful, but they would not be afraid, especially the secretary of the criminal department, the emaciated young man in front of him was precisely because of his insight, and he begged from the Beijing County Yazhong, first promoted to the head of the criminal department, and later was valued by His Majesty, so he was included in the secret spy department.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department frowned and said: "The deceased was torn off his neck with great force~, and there were no other wounds on his body~, except for a few shoe prints in the window~, there were no clues left by the murderer at the scene~." ”
The emaciated young man looked at the messy footprints on the ground, shook his head, and muttered, "It's a pity~." ”
"Huh~? What the~? The criminal department Shangshu raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Nothing~." The young man shook his head and said to a few people behind him: "Bring all the envoys of the Chu State to the courtyard~, let people guard outside~, from now on~, no one is allowed to enter or leave here~." ”
"The only clue~,It's the shoe print on the window~,It's been compared~,This shoe print doesn't belong to anyone in the temple~." The criminal department Shangshu said, and was about to go to the window to point it out for him, when the emaciated young man immediately spoke: "Adults and slow~!" ”
When Shangshu of the Criminal Department heard this, his footsteps stopped in place, and he saw the emaciated young man take off his shoes and carefully walk to the window.
He looked at the window and the shoe prints outside the window, opened the back door and went out, and walked around the back porch, his eyes lingering slightly in the garden under the porch.
After a while, he walked inside, pointed to another room adjacent to this one and asked, "Who lives there~?" ”
An official of Honglu Temple thought for a while and said, "It's another envoy of the Chu State~, and he is also the person in charge of the Chu State Mission this time~." ”
There was a murder in the Honglu Temple, involving the death of the envoy of the Chu State, the matter was very serious, all the uninvolved personnel, including the envoys of the various countries, were stopped outside the door, except for the personnel handling the case, no one was allowed to enter or leave.
They could only poke their heads out and look in from a distance at the door, and saw that several envoys of the Chu State were all standing in the courtyard, and the people from Dali Temple and the Criminal Department were standing in front of them, as if they were asking something.
"When did you find the deceased~, and who found it~?" A criminal department chief held a booklet of records in his hand and made routine inquiries.
"It's me~, half an hour ago~." An envoy of Chu had a gloomy face, gritted his teeth and said: "After coming out of the palace~, because of the defeat in the competition, Lord Huang was depressed, so he locked himself in the room, and before he came out of the meal time, when I went to call him in his room, I didn't get a response for a long time, so I let the people of Honglu Temple knock open the door, only to find that Lord Huang had been killed~. ”
After he said this, his tone could no longer remain calm, and he said viciously: "I don't care who hurt Lord Huang~!" Three days, within three days, your Xia Kingdom must hand over the murderer, otherwise, we will leave to return to China immediately, Lord Huang's grievances, my Chu Kingdom will use blood to wash it away sooner or later~! ”
Dali Siqing's face changed slightly when he heard this, an envoy of a country was assassinated in Honglu Temple, this is an extremely serious matter, empathy, if the envoy of Xia died in Chu State, not only His Majesty and hundreds of officials, I am afraid that the people of Xia State will not give up, this time, they are really in trouble.
"Lord Hu and Lord Huang have a good relationship~, I was a little emotional just now~, please forgive me~." The blue-clothed envoy in charge of the Chu State showed sadness on his face, and after saying a word, his voice changed suddenly, and he looked at Dali Siqing and said: "But~, you Xia Guo must give us an explanation for this matter~, otherwise~, this explanation~, we can only ask for it in person~!" ”
"This sentence~, your third prince is not qualified to say it~!" A gloomy voice came from behind everyone, and Jixiang strode over from the door and asked coldly, "What about the woman who participated in the competition in the palace just now~?" ”
When the blue-robed envoy heard this, his face changed slightly.
"My envoy of the Chu State died in your Xia Kingdom~, why are we not qualified to speak~?" At this time, I saw that Master Hu stepped forward and asked with an annoyed face.
"The old man asked one last time~, where is the woman who participated in the competition in the palace just now~?" Ji Xiang glanced at him lightly, and his tone became cold and sharp~!
