Chapter 0545 - Track down the real culprit behind the scenes

After Qin Keqing escaped from the prison of the Criminal Department, there was no reaction from all sides.

The prison of the Criminal Department thought that it was to ask the Jinyi Army and Shuntianfu to take it away. Although it was not sent back again, and there was no news, it did not mean that there was anything wrong.

This used to happen a lot. Whoever brings it up from here, in a few days, will find his body outside.

No one is stupid enough to ask why people die.

As for the Jinyi Army and the Shuntianfu side, after arresting the people, after a round of interrogation, they put the people in the prison of the Criminal Department and ignored them.

It wasn't until the emperor decreed that those who were raided should be beheaded, and the Jinyi army went to the prison to raise people.

When it was finally discovered that Qin Keqing was gone, the prison of the Criminal Department took out a draft and pushed 625.

In the end, the matter went to Sun Tongren, the commander of the Jinyi Army, and Yin Jiayu Village, Shuntian Mansion.

The two were naturally furious, so they began to investigate internally.

The results of the tracing were twofold.

First, no one in his family admitted that he had mentioned Qin Keqing in prison. The second is that the two votes left in the prison are both true.

In the end, there was no result in tracing how the draft ticket was circulated.

The two had no choice but to check it together and decided to hide it.

First, if the emperor and other ministers knew about this matter, the two would leave a handle.

The second is that the current situation is very chaotic, as long as this matter is not exposed immediately, people will forget about it after a while, and no one will have the heart to investigate this matter anymore.

So the two went back to the emperor together, and prepared a lot of rhetoric.

The emperor heard that the prisoner had been beheaded, so he only said: I know. I didn't ask anything else.

Even if this matter is covered up, there is no use for the words prepared in advance.

It turned out that Luo Qihua wanted Qin Keqing, and Prince Zhongshun wanted Miaoyu.

These two people, Jia Yucun still has to explain.

Miaoyu didn't catch it, and Prince Zhongshun couldn't say anything. In addition, I was busy going to the northwest at that time, so I didn't care about it.

Luo Qihua only said that he was the emperor's prisoner, but he really didn't dare to leave Qin Keqing behind, so Luo Qihua didn't say anything.

Whether it is Prince Zhongshun or Luo Qihua, there are more important things to do at this time.

Women are important, but compared to their future net worth and life, after all, there is still a layer of difference.

They can tell which is more important.

After all these things were dealt with, Jia Yucun's mood became happy.

The reason why he was happy was because he felt that he was getting closer and closer to Xue Baochai's goal.

So, he had the mood to travel to Jiafu.

Now, Jia Yucun is walking in the Grand View Garden with a few entourages.

In the past, the grand view garden of flowers and warblers and swallows was now naturally empty.

Many places in the yard are already overgrown with weeds. Rare birds and animals such as deer and swans that used to roam the grass and lakes are gone.

There are only a few houses left, which seem to still tell the prosperity of the past.

In Wuyuan, Jia Yucun stopped.

"Lai Da, open the door and go in and have a look."

Lai Da came in with Jia Yu Village, and he naturally knew who Jia Yu Village was.

He was very familiar with Jia Yucun before, and at that time, Jia Yucun was polite when he saw him, the big housekeeper.

But now it's different. In front of him, Lai Da no longer had the self-confidence he used to have, and he became submissive.

Lai Da obediently opened the door, and Jia Yucun entered alone.

This is where Baochai lived back then.

Jia Yucun closed his eyes, and seemed to see Baochai's shadow here again.

Although he had long known that Jia Min was engaged to Baochai, he couldn't erase Baochai's shadow in his heart.

He felt sorry for Baochai and thought that Jia Min was not worthy of Baochai at all.

Despite Jia Min's fame, he has never looked down on Jia Min.

In fact, Jia Min and Jia Yucun have never met.

When he arrived at Jiafu, Jia Zheng often asked Baoyu to come out to see him. He knew that Jia Zheng wanted Baoyu to take him as a role model.

At this time, Jia Yucun felt very satisfied.

It's just that Jia Min has never seen him, which makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

However, now Jia Yucun's mood has improved.

He attributed this to the reason for going to Baochai's residence.

He came to the house in Jiafu today to experience the feeling of being the master.

Just yesterday, he met Song Kuan in the cyclamen.

Song Kuan promised him that after occupying the imperial capital in the future, when the new dynasty was established, Jia Yucun would become a new generation of Rongguo Gong. He will also be admitted to the Cabinet Military Aircraft University.

Matching with the new generation of Rongguo Gong, the mansion of Rongguo Mansion will naturally belong to him.

Jia Yucun already had a plan in his heart, and when the new dynasty was established and the situation stabilized in the future, he would persuade the new emperor to use troops against Beihai. Wipe out the remnants of Jiafu who were hiding there, and then make them slaves to themselves.

Jia Min is more threatening, and this person must not stay. As for Xue Baochai, he naturally wants to be included in his own room.

These housekeepers and subordinates will all be retained when the time comes, so that they can have a good experience and serve the new master.

At that time, Jia Yucun could feel that the evil qi he had accumulated in his heart for many years was vented.

Hmph, it's such a bunch of waste, who dare to call themselves my benefactors. From now on, I will give you a taste of what it is like to be a slave.

Don't talk about you bunch of waste, how about Wang Ziteng? It's not the same in my hands!

Reluctantly walked out of the Wuyuan, Jia Yucun went to other places to browse one by one, and then left satisfied.

Looking at Jia Yucun's distant back, Lai Da spat on the ground fiercely.

"Hmph, villain Dezhi, wait for my fourth master Min to come back, see how he cleans you up! Let you die without a place to be buried, and the hatred in my heart will be relieved. ”

Jia Yucun was sitting in a sedan chair, he never expected that at this time, not far behind him, two people were following him.

These two people, one is Wei Ruoshui, and the other is Li Gui, an old man from Jiafu.

After rescuing Qin Keqing from the prison of the Criminal Department, she was sent to Tianjin Wei on the boat, and Wei Ruoshui left 8 people to escort Qin Keqing to Beihai.

He himself led the rest of the people back to the imperial capital and began to track down the murderers of Wang Ziteng and Jia Yuanchun.

He had not been given this task before he arrived. However, he felt that he was here and that it was his responsibility to find out the truth of the matter.

Only in this way did he be embarrassed to go to see Chief Min. He believes. Chief Min will also support him in doing so.

As for Li Gui, it turned out that he had brought the people of the Laofu Corps to Wang Ziteng's Beijing camp and was responsible for training the Beijing camp.

After Wang Ziteng's death, Luo Shen was transferred to the prefect of Datong, and most of the soldiers from the Beijing camp who returned from the south fled.

The military department did not like the Beijing camp very much, so it allowed the soldiers to disperse, and the rest of them were disorganized and incorporated into other armies.

Li Gui was retained by Wang Xin to help deal with Wang Ziteng's funeral. At the same time, together with Wang Xin and Master Jiang, he secretly investigated the cause of Wang Ziteng's death.

Wei Ruoshui met Li Gui when he went to Wang's house to understand the situation, so he gathered those instructors under his command.

Now, what they are secretly eyeing is Master Qin, the criminal master of Jia Yu Village.

Jia Yucun now has three masters, in addition to the criminal master who assists him in handling judicial proceedings, there is also a master of money and grain who handles economic affairs and a master of knives and pens who writes official documents.

The evidence of the investigation shows that it was this Master Qin who single-handedly carried out the murder of Wang Ziteng.

Seeing that Jia Yucun had entered the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion, Wei Ruoshui and Li Gui arrived at an inn opposite the Yamen.

They had already secured a room here. From the window of the room, you can see the entry and exit of people at the gate of the Yamen of Shuntianfu from a distance.

"Captain of the guard, you rest first, I'll stare at it for two hours, and then you change me."

Li Gui said, sat down in front of the window, and began to drink tea slowly.

"Well, if anything happens, call me immediately."

Wei Ruoshui said, and lay down to sleep.

At the end of the Shen period, there was movement at the gate of the yamen.

"Captain of the Guard, that guy is out and heading north."

Li Gui suddenly screamed softly.

Wei Ruolan looked at her pocket watch, and it was five fifty in the afternoon.

"It seems that he went to his concubine. Okay, let's do it. I'll go after you, and you call the other two brothers, and then I'll follow. ”

The two went out, got on their horses and left.

Li Gui arrived at the Bafang Inn not far away and called the other two people who had been waiting here for a long time. One of them rode a horse, and the other drove a carriage with a large wooden box on it, and they left the inn and walked north.

Not far out of the city, it is the road to Qiaojiazhuang. On the way, you will pass through a field of crops.

It was the height of summer, and the buds had grown to a man's height. As soon as he approached the bud field, he saw a horse wandering there.

Li Gui recognized this horse, which was the mount of Master Qin, who had just come out of the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion before.

Li Gui was looking around, and saw Wei Ruoshui coming out of the budding rice field.

"Here, put him in a box."

Li Gui took the two of them into the bud rice field, and saw that Master Qin had his hands tied, his mouth stuffed with cloth, and he was struggling on the ground, still whining in his mouth.

Wei Ruoshui was on guard on the side, and Li Gui and the three of them put Master Qin into the wooden box on the carriage.

"Let's go, go to Xiaoxinzhuang."

Twenty minutes later, the carriage and horses arrived at Xiaoxinzhuang, and Master Qin was carried out and carried into the house.

The cloth covering his eyes was removed, and the cloth from his mouth was pulled out.

Master Qin got used to it for a while, and saw a few people in front of him clearly.

He didn't know anyone else, but there was one person he was familiar with. This person is Wang Ziteng's master, Master Jiang.

"Senior brother, why are you here?"

The senior brother called by Master Qin is Master Jiang. It turned out that the two turned out to be brothers in the same family.

"Qin Mingchang, from now on, whether we can still be senior brothers depends on how you perform today?"

Master Jiang said coldly.

"Why did you arrest me here, and who are they?"

"Why did you arrest you, don't you know? Naturally, it was for you and Jia Yucun to murder Lord Wang. ”

"Senior brother, I was wronged, I didn't do this."

"Qin Mingchang, you are still a criminal master, if there is no evidence, will you be arrested? Although Wu Langzhong told you to kill your mouth. But what you say, his wife hears it secretly. People are not as good as heaven, if you recruit honestly, you will not be tortured, and a whole corpse will be left. Your small family can also be spared. ”

"If you still want to deny it, I will do all the methods you will use to extract confessions. Slowly torture you to death, and your family will also be destroyed, you can do it yourself. ”

"Also, I'll tell you who they are. They are the nephews of Lord Wang, Jia Guifei's younger brothers, Jia Min and Jia Huaiyuan. ”

"Jia Min's people? Jia Min is back? ”

"Not yet, but I'll be back soon."

"Senior brother, if I say more things, can I spare my life?"

"It depends on what you're talking about."
