Chapter 207: Tricky
Hearing that there was a murder in the Tang Mansion, Tang Xiu, the head of the Tang family, was stabbed and injured, and Yi Xiaotong of Taiyuan Mansion and Shaoyin Wang Yanhe rushed over directly with the servants of the Yazhong.
Tang Xiu is now in the limelight in Taiyuan Mansion, and he has made a watermelon that stirs up the wind and rain all over the city, not to mention, even the metropolitan governor Cheng Chuliang, who has never paid much attention to them, has also led it out, and now that something has happened in Tang Mansion, they dare not slack off.
When they arrived at the Tang Mansion, they found that in addition to Tang Xiu, there were also Wang Jingli, the head of the Wang family, and Liu Chai Ming, the head of the Liu family.
As officials in Taiyuan, they are naturally not strangers to the four masters in Taiyuan City, but they can't understand a little, when did the Wang and Liu families have such a close relationship with the Tang family? Didn't the four major families have a lot of unhappiness with the Tang Mansion because of the watermelon incident two days ago, why did they get together again now?
Could it be for the sake of what Tang Xiu said yesterday?
After the two parties met the ceremony, Xiao Tong's eyes directly focused on Tang Xiu's injured and bandaged left arm, no longer polite, and went straight to the point: "I heard that Tang Gongzi was assassinated, and there was even a murder in the house, I don't know where this assassin is now, and who was killed and injured?" ”
"Your Excellency," Tang Xiu said, "It is true that the kid was assassinated, but fortunately, no one in the whole province lost his life because of this. However, the assassin bit off his tongue directly after being caught, and was screaming half a moment ago, but now he is silent, and he doesn't know if he is still alive. ”
Xiao Tong and Wang Yanhe couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at the same time, as long as no one died, as for the assassin, if he died, he would die, and it was not within their care.
"Where are the assassins now, take this mansion quickly!"
"My lord, please come with me!"
Tang Xiu led the way in front and directly led Xiao Tong, Wang Yanhe and a group of officers to the scene of the crime.
Along the way, Wang Jingli and Liu Chai Ming whispered the story of the case to Xiao Tong and the two of them in detail, the meaning of the words is self-evident, the two of them have now formed an alliance with the Tang Mansion, and the current Tang Mansion is not only Cheng Chuliang, but also their Wang and Liu families, when handling the case, I hope these two adults can weigh it a little, and don't deliberately embarrass the Tang family.
Xiao Tong and Wang Yanhe are both human spirits, so naturally they will not fail to understand the meaning of Wang Jingli and Liu Chai Ming's words.
This Tang Xiu is really shit lucky, first there is Cheng Chuliang, the governor of the capital, who has said that he has blessed him, and now there are two more allies of the four major families, is this kid really still the big loser whose reputation has spread throughout the entire Taiyuan Mansion before?
"Huh?" Xiao Tong's body suddenly stopped, his face suddenly became a little pale, and he asked Tang Xiu and the others, "Since that assassin came in to assassinate the Cui family master through his identity, where is the Cui family master now?" Can you send someone to make sure? ”
Tang Xiu shook his head lightly, he had already thought about this question, looking at the assassin's methods, Cui Dexian's family was estimated to be more than lucky, but since the assassin had been bound, Cui Dexian's life and death had nothing to do with Tang Xiu, so naturally he didn't send someone out to investigate.
As for Wang Jingli and Liu Chai Ming, they had just woken up from a coma, and the fright in their hearts had not been completely suppressed, so how could they have time to care about Cui Dexian. Now that I heard Xiao Tong ask, the two of them suddenly changed, Cui Dexian wouldn't have suffered an accident, right?
At that time, looking at the assassin's actions, but even the two of them thought about killing them together, if it weren't for Tang Xiu's trickery and some incense, the two of them would probably be here today, and they were still like this, wouldn't Cui Dexian, who was the first to be targeted by the assassin, be even more dangerous?
If Cui Dexian was killed by the assassins, Wang Jingli and Liu Chai Ming were shocked, and then they were happy.
Cui Dexian is dead, and the Cui family has no leader, although it will not decline like the Pei family, but the business in the clan will inevitably decline, isn't this the best opportunity for the two of them to expand again?
"King catches heads!" Xiao Tong's face changed suddenly, he shouted violently, and ordered the head catcher surnamed Wang behind him: "Quick, go to the Cui Mansion to inquire about the whereabouts of the Cui family master, if the Cui Mansion does not have it, search the whole city of the Cui, you want to see people in life, and you want to see corpses in death!" ”
Even said the words 'life to see people, death to see corpses', it can be seen that Xiao Tong also thinks in his heart that Cui Dexian is already more than lucky.
Unlike Tang Xiu's lack of concern and Wang Salute, Xiao Tong and Wang Yanhe are really anxious now.
Cui Dexian has some prestige in Taiyuan City, as one of the four major families of the Cui family, his status is naturally very important, if he has an accident and is killed by assassins under their rule, they must be the first to bear the brunt.
Trouble!
Wang Zhu led the order and left in a hurry, while Xiao Tong and Wang Yanhe were worried and looked a little irritable.
"The two adults don't have to worry," Seeing that the faces of the two were a little ugly, Tang Xiu said softly with relief: "Even if the Cui family master is really unfortunate and suffers an accident, it has nothing to do with the two adults. Besides, hasn't this assassin already been caught? Even if someone really holds someone accountable in the future, the two adults can be regarded as having an explanation, right? ”
"That being said, but the head of the Cui family has a lot of influence in Taiyuan, and if he is really stabbed to death, he will always ......"
Xiao Tong sighed softly, but his complexion was obviously much better than before.
Tang Xiu was right, the assassin had already surrendered, no matter what the result was, they could finally have an explanation in Taiyuan Mansion, which was at least much better than the assassin successfully escaping after committing the murder.
Fortunately, Tang Xiu was only slightly injured in this assassination, and managed to capture the assassin, otherwise, there would be no need to wait for the Qin messenger above to come down and reprimand, even Cheng Chuliang would not let them go.
"This is it," entering the small courtyard, Tang Xiu stretched out his hand and pointed to the plane tree in the corner, and said to Xiao Tong and Wang Yanhe respectfully: "Lord Xiao, Lord Wang, please look, the person tied to the tree is an assassin!" ”
"Huh?"
"Gross!"
"This ...... This ...... How did he end up like this......"
More than half of the people present couldn't help but retch, and all of them were shocked and startled.
The assassin's face was purple, his eyes bulged, and his face was distorted to the point that it was almost impossible to tell that it was a human being.
The mouth is round and open, and the mouth is full of black blood on the chin, just like that, from time to time, there will be some sticky things that seem to be blood but not blood flowing out of the mouth, dripping a thick piece on the chin and clothes, how disgusting and disgusting.
But even so, the assassin's chest was still slowly sinking together, and it was obvious that there was still breath.
"The kid has already said it before," in the face of Xiao Tong's questioning, Tang Xiu replied indifferently: "After the assassin was bound, before the kid could start asking, he bit off the tongue in his mouth and swallowed it himself. ”
Xiao Tong, Wang Yanhe and the others all had their faces cold, and they could even bite off their tongues and eat them, Nima, this is a ruthless person!
Assassin like a dead man, this case is tricky!
