After talking to Wang Siyi, Liu Chengfeng paced around the place where the crime occurred. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Most of the scenes of the massacre were not on the official road, apparently after Zhou Cheng and Zhou Cheng's family were attacked, they immediately abandoned their cars and horses and ran towards the woods on the east side of the official road.

But who knows, there are obviously people who have ambushed them there, blocked them, and killed them all more than 200 feet away from the official road.

Liu Chengfeng inspected the woods around here, and found that although the grass in the woods had traces of being crushed, it was not as messy as imagined, and the places with blood stains were relatively concentrated.

Those who can do this can no longer be done by ordinary military people, those who have this ability in the Beijing Division, except for the warrior battalion, only the new army is left, as for the other pro-army, Liu Chengfeng never believes that he can be so well-trained and can do the same command.

However, this warrior battalion is the inner palace guard, don't say that the transfer of so many people is the transfer of ten people, and there must be a report in the palace, and the procedures are extremely cumbersome, as for the new army, the new army is firmly controlled by Liu Chengfeng, even if someone acts without authorization, it is impossible for Liu Chengfeng not to know.

Liu Chengfeng had a premonition at this time that in this Beijing Division, there was no secret force, but who cultivated this force?

It is impossible to cultivate such a team of dead soldiers, without enough financial resources and not enough backstage, but who in the capital has such financial resources and such strength?

Liu Chengfeng squatted in the grass, couldn't help picking a dog's tail grass in his hand, rubbing it in his hand, thinking about it, but he always couldn't think of a suspicious candidate, he couldn't help but stand up, and suddenly found that this case was not as simple as he imagined.

He searched the vicinity for a few more moments, and then a lieutenant suddenly called out in the grass in the distance: "Look, what is this?" ”

Liu Chengfeng hurriedly rushed over, but saw that the captain carefully took out a thing, this is a sachet, there seems to be musk in the sachet, Liu Chengfeng took it and smelled it, looked at it carefully for a moment, and couldn't help frowning.

Originally, Liu Chengfeng expected that this sachet should be left by Zhou Cheng's family, but the strange thing is that the style of this sachet is very strange, and it is definitely not a more common style in Beijing, and more importantly, Liu Chengfeng knows that Zhou Cheng is said to have a granddaughter-in-law who is about to give birth.

The reason is actually very simple, it is said that when it was still in the Han Dynasty, the queen Zhao Feiyan often smeared musk on her skin in order to maintain her skin, so this Zhao Feiyan never gave birth to an heir, plus this idea has the effect of inducing labor, so in ancient times, many people believed that musk was a drug that caused abortion, and even many medical books had such records.

If there is a pregnant woman in the family, something like musk must be absolutely forbidden, and regardless of whether this musk really has the effect of making people abort, the most important thing is that no one dares to violate this rule.

There is still a trace of blood on this sachet, the center is a round sachet, and the two ends are thin ropes, which are obviously convenient for the owner to hang around his waist, but the knot tied to this string is still there, but it is twisted alive, which means that someone ripped this sachet from the waist of the person.

This sachet is very interesting...... Liu Chengfeng looked at this sachet over and over, since the sachet was not worn by the Zhou family, so the person who wore it should be one of the assassins, and the workmanship of this sachet is very rough, and it can even be described as inferior, especially the sachet in the middle, the material used is not silk, but linen, which is only used by the poorer family members now.

After all, people live a life of licking blood with knives, killing people for their masters, and earning less silver than ordinary craftsmen in a month, such a person is nothing to have a few dozen taels of silver a year, and with such a net worth, it is only easy to buy dozens of high-quality silk sachets in the market. However, the sachet he was wearing was a very shoddy product.

There is also an explanation, that is, this sachet has a great significance to the killer, such as a gift from relatives or friends, but this is a bit unexplainable, and the reason is very simple, general customs, ordinary relatives and friends, how can they give sachets, sachets generally exist as tokens, could it be that the sachet is a woman who gave the sachet to the killer, and this woman is the killer's lover?

Liu Chengfeng turned around a poplar tree with his hands behind his back, and the people around him saw that he was deep in thought, and no one dared to disturb him.

Suddenly, Liu Chengfeng stopped, couldn't help but look up at the lush branches and leaves on the tree, and couldn't help muttering: "But this is a little wrong, not to mention the current atmosphere is like this, how can an ordinary woman have a private lover?" Although many stories of talented and beautiful women have given birth to a lot of such elegant things, the so-called talented and beautiful women are actually scholars and girls, and only women can do this. But remember the girl...... Will the girl give this kind of rough sachet? Not to mention, this killer is not a genius either. ”

Liu Chengfeng thought about it, but found that he had fallen into a dead end, and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't explain it, and it was very strange. He had no choice but to put away the sachet, called the Wang priest, and said: "Wang priest, I'm afraid that you have to stay here tonight, and then search here to see if you can find other things, after the night, go to the county seat of Jingxian to stay overnight, I'm just afraid that I have to go back to Beijing, if there is any news, immediately send someone to tell me." He couldn't help but put his hand on the shoulder of the royal official, sighed and said, "This time, I have to work for you." ”

The eyes of the priest Wang were a little red, and the old tears were blurred: "How can the adult say this kind of thing, if the student is not the grace of the adult, I am afraid that he is still a worthless little priest, and the student's son has also been supported by the adult, and now he has attacked the earl, the old bone of the student is an adult, and there is no way to talk about the word labor." ”

Liu Chengfeng nodded, and didn't say anything more, no more kind words, but it seemed a little hypocritical, he just patted the back of the Wang priest, nodded at the Wang priest, and then quickly went to untie his horse, turned over, greeted Chen Hongyu, Gao Qiang and others, sat on the horse and glanced at the lieutenants scattered around, and then Pegasus left.

Things have become more and more confusing, and there are many doubts, so that Liu Chengfeng's head is like a dead knot, Liu Chengfeng is now in urgent need of a rope to string all the doubts, and at this time Liu Chengfeng is indeed worth celebrating, at that time his promise to the palace was three days, and the emperor gave him ten days, now it seems that three days is obviously too short.

What's next?

While galloping on the horse, Liu Chengfeng began to think in his heart, time is naturally not to be delayed, but now, it seems that there is no need to rush for a while, after returning to the Beijing Division, it is better to rest first.

When he returned to Beijing, it was already dark, Liu Chengfeng said goodbye to Chen Hongyu, and then returned directly to the mansion with Gao Qiang and other guards.

In fact, at this time, the Beijing division was already full of storms, and the civil and military officials heard the news, and wrote to impeach them, demanding that the murderer be punished immediately, who the murderer is is self-evident, and those bigwigs in the court are better, after all, they are calm, and such a big thing suddenly happened, which they did not expect, and now they are still weighing whether this matter is beneficial to them, but the officials below are different, there are many young Hanlin, Yanguan, and those who are not in the middle of the matter, and they are not even interested in detouring, directly named and asked Liu Chengfeng to be severely punished.

There has been no reaction in the palace so far, all the recitals have been left in the center, neither issuing a will to protect them, nor making a gesture of severe punishment, and the attitude towards the palace just coincides with the emperor's surname.

After all, Zhou Cheng is an official of the imperial court anyway, even if he is a gentry, he is also a gentry, and now he is full of people, what a horrific thing, and judging from all kinds of signs, this Liu Chengfeng is indeed the biggest suspect, and there are even many newspapers that directly sorted out the grievances between Liu Chengfeng and Zhou Cheng, as well as Zhou Cheng's case, and the final result was almost pointed at Liu Chengfeng's nose and scolded.

However, at this time, he tried his best to uphold a neutral attitude, and kept saying that the matter had not yet come to a conclusion, and the imperial court would definitely be investigating thoroughly, and it would not be too late to make a conclusion when the results came out.

However, the position of learning and reporting directly led to the decline in sales, and many scholars and squires have a lot of anger at learning and reporting favoritism to Liu Chengfeng.

Things are very tense, this tension has also infected the Lianguo Mansion, the Mansion, almost everyone seems a little depressed, and some people are even discussing in private, Grandpa Guo is only afraid that this time he will not be able to escape the court tribunal, so many people seem to be a little regretful, after all, this Liu Chengfeng usually treats them well, and can do things in the Mansion, both decent and not low, if Liu Chengfeng is convicted, they will not say that they are implicated, but such a good errand is only afraid to be smashed.
