Chapter 876: Who Did It
At about 9 o'clock in the morning, the Temple of Heaven in Tokyo ushered in another noisy day, and the theme of the noise also changed, and it was very miscellaneous in the past, some Confucian students opposed women entering the imperial examination and became officials, some girls opposed Confucian gender discrimination, some sang loudly to convince people with virtue and oppose the war, some clamored to fight across the Yellow River and liberate the whole of China, and there were also those who opposed bureaucratic corruption or those who opposed the chaos of the imperial court.
Since Zhu Yigui set off the anti-slavery movement, the theme has gradually become concentrated, and today the momentum is even stronger, and thousands of people have gathered at the Temple of Heaven to create pressure when the members of the two courts go to work. These people held high the banner of denouncing the industry and commerce of the country, shouting all kinds of slogans, some gathered at the gate of the West Courtyard to spit on the affairs of the West Courtyard, and some gathered in the East Courtyard to express their support for the affairs of the East Courtyard.
Wang Shishen and the three got out of the carriage and prepared to enter the east courtyard through the side door. Lieutenant Luo registered at the door, handed over the short gun, can you bring this thing into the east courtyard, when he was filling in the form, he saw that Wang Shishen did not enter the door, but walked to the people outside the door, his heart couldn't help jumping, and he subconsciously wanted to say hello.
It was too late, a person suddenly jumped out of the crowd and bumped into Wang Shishen, looking from a distance, it seemed that he hugged Wang Shishen and pleaded for something, this thing has happened many times, and the people around him are not very concerned.
Only Sergeant Luo felt bad and resolutely pulled out his feet and rushed up.
When the man raised his arm and showed a bloody sharp knife, he had already pulled out the knife again, and in front of everyone's eyes, the man shook his arm and stabbed the sharp knife down again, and then there were exclamations around him.
"How daring!"
Lieutenant Luo's eyes were red, and he shouted loudly, and after the man stabbed him three times, he threw away Wang Shishen and turned around and fled quickly.
The surrounding people were in an uproar like birds and beasts, vacating a large open area, and also revealing the figure of the murderer. But to his chagrin, he found that the short gun had been placed at the doorman's place. The delay was fleeting, and the man had blended into the crowd.
"Gray jacket shoes. In his thirties, a lean man with blood on his cuffs! ”
The black-clothed police officer patrolling the Temple of Heaven also reacted quickly, and immediately rushed to a team, and Lieutenant Luo hurriedly explained, for him, catching the murderer is secondary. The first is to keep Wang Shishen.
turned around to help Wang Shishen, but saw that the leader of the Eastern Courtyard, the head of the Mo Party, and the old man admired by thousands of people, had his eyes dilated and he was not breathing.
"Damn it!"
Lieutenant Luo hugged Wang Shishen like falling into purgatory.
"Who! Who did this to you! Who instigated it! I, Luo Xingxia, will die, and I will hang all their heads on the city wall! ”
Hatred is like fire, and it smokes this early forties. The old policeman in red almost lost his mind, and he didn't know it when he bit his mouth, and there was blood on his mouth. He solemnly swore an oath.
The side gate of the east courtyard was in turmoil, and it was not until near noon that the hospital near the Temple of Heaven officially announced that Wang Shishen had died, and the news reached the Weiyang Palace, which was close at hand.
"The murderer hasn't been caught yet? Who's behind it? ”
In the grass hall, Li Xian, who suddenly fell into the cold ice from the warm sun, was unstoppable and asked sharply.
Then he frowned, and his tone turned even colder: "Yu Hanyi! I let you look at the blind man, just to prevent this kind of thing! Now the blind man Wang was not only killed, but also in the Temple of Heaven! At the gate of the East Courtyard, under my nose! You've done a great job! ”
Yu Hanyi's face turned pale. didn't defend himself, and bowed for a long time: "Han Yi is negligent, please punish Your Majesty!" ”
It was indeed negligence, no one could have expected that someone would be so frustrated and kill people in a place like the Temple of Heaven, unless......
Li Xian's brows furrowed even tighter. The words became light: "Han Yi, is it really negligent? ”
Yu Hanyi's black face was almost white at this time, and with a bang, he slammed his knees on the ground and kowtowed: "The minister will never dare to bully the king!" But the minister is really happy to see this! ”…,
With a bang, Li Xi swept the table with one sleeve and roared, "Don't play this trick with me!" Say! What is the responsibility of the Praetorian Guard in this matter!? ”
Yu Hanyi gritted his teeth and said, "It's really negligence!" ”
Li Xian looked at Yu Hanyi, and Yu Hanyi also looked back calmly, and after a long time, Li Xian sighed faintly: "Hanyi, when we were marching and training in Jiguan Mountain, you were the first to follow me to escort. After that, you fought against the thieves who attacked Li Zhuang, and you and Xu Hanchuan were also guarding left and right. Han Chuan has been gone for almost thirty years, and as long as you have been with me, I am still your fourth brother, so I don't know if you are only the emperor of me......"
Yu Hanyi's mind was suddenly in a trance, and nearly thirty years flashed in his mind, and he choked up: "Your Majesty...... Fourth brother, you are as loving as your father, and you will never dare to disobey, and your heart has never changed! ”
Li Xian said softly: "Okay, I'll give you another chance, you don't care about the case of the blind man, let the Criminal Department do things according to the rules, and find out the real murderer." Look at Zhu Yigui again, don't let him do this again. ”
As far as personal friendship is concerned, Wang Shishen's death makes him very heartbroken, and it is also a great loss for the country, and since then, it is difficult for the Eastern Court to find a public opinion leader who has a tacit understanding with him. Zhu Yigui may be able to inherit Wang Shishen's mantle, but Zhu Yigui's heart is obviously not as pure as Wang Shishen, let alone Wang Shishen's academic attainments.
Damn it...... Who the hell did it!?
Li Xian cursed secretly, Yu Hanyi really hated Wang Shishen, and he understood this thought very well. Not to mention Yu Hanyi, as far as his heart is concerned, the two army leaders of Xiao Sheng and Fan Jin, along with Wu Ya, Jia Hao, Zhang Hanwan and other generals in the army, are afraid that they will secretly clap their hands and applaud.
Wang Shishen led the Eastern Courtyard to fight for legal power, and the Confucian Party also clinged to him, frequently attacking the army. Last year, they even encouraged the Western Yuan to join forces, hoping that the Privy Council and the Ministry of War would make their accounts public for spending, because some Confucian officials thought that the British and Chinese soldiers were too well paid, and that they had the trouble of raising arrogant soldiers, leaving too much room for corruption.
The attack between the two houses is quite dangerous, because the bureaucrats in the political hall are also echoing, and in the final analysis, it is the factor of advocating literature and suppressing military force in the old Chinese world that is about to move. The first step is to make the accounts public, the second step is to meddle in the military, and the third step is to reach out to him for military power.
Li Shi resolutely fought back, asking the Privy Council and the Ministry of War to declare that the military accounts were under the overall planning of the Commander-in-Chief, and to ask for the accounts, and to ask him personally for the emperor. Pushing the Taoist Party lineage in the political hall and the two houses, and impeaching and instigating Wang Shishen to make this argument, on the public side, they are trying to leak military secrets and endanger the national security of Britain and China, and there are many private tricks. A group of people lost their positions, a group of people resigned, and no one in the two houses and the political affairs hall dared to stretch out their hands for military affairs.
Although the counterattack was resolute, the army was worried for a while. After the limelight passed, everyone in the army said that Wang Blind was a very annoying knife.
Yu Hanyi's dislike of the blind man Wang is not only on the military side, but also on the state side. Although Li Xi has a good personal friendship with Wang Blind, and Wang Blind is also acting in a measured manner, Yu Hanyi always feels that the way for people like Wang Blind is to seize power. If something happens to the blind man, the responsibility of the Praetorian Guard Department is not only negligence, but also a suspicion of indulgence.
Li Shi, of course, did not allow the Praetorian Guard to start having its own brain. But now is not the time to deal with the Praetorian Guard, as for who is the real culprit behind this case, Li Xi thinks that most of them are Jiangnan Industry and Commerce, Wang Blind has been assassinated several times, and they are the masterminds behind the scenes. Just because the blind man always picks on their thorns and spoils their business. In the past, it may have been that the reward was not high, and the real dead man was not found. Several assassinations revealed early. Now that the blind man is setting off a wave of movement against the slave trade in the north and the south, the dog is in a hurry and naturally wants to jump over the wall. ..., thinking of the death of the blind man, the country still doesn't know how much trouble it will make. Li Shi had a headache. At least he and Wang Blind's previous plan is facing an abrupt death, and he has to start again, hoping that Zhu Yigui can use that ambition in the right place and temporarily push public opinion on the right path.
Li Xian is not a god, he doesn't know that Zhu Yigui at this time is full of fear.
His small office was crowded with Moru Academy, either grief-stricken or indignant, in addition to denouncing the murderer, he also asked Zhu Yigui to come forward. pushed the Eastern Court to put forward a bill to mourn Wang Shishen.
For these court officials, the death of the blind man Wang is a great pity, since they have no leader, it is difficult for them to compete with the two chambers of Taoism and even the political affairs hall to fight for power. And to use the blind man as a banner is also a dead man's life, so that these people can still be stained with the light of the blind man. Stabilize the position under the buttocks, now only Zhu Yigui, a close comrade-in-arms of the blind man, can do this.
Zhu Yigui glanced at these people, first realizing that the door of his ideals was slowly opening, and he was overjoyed by this, and then he was extremely frightened. A bright future is ahead, but there is a bottomless abyss under your feet, and you will fall down at any time, there is nothing more terrible than this feeling, this is the tossing and turning between life and death.
Blind Man...... He ordered someone to kill him!
This fear came to his heart, and Zhu Yigui was extremely remorseful for what he had done, and his eyes were different when he saw these courtyards, and he felt that all of them were smiling. And with smoke in his throat, he couldn't open his mouth, so he was afraid that as soon as he spoke, these people knew that he had a conflict with Wang Blind, and Wang Blind not only wanted to quit the Mo Society, but also wanted to check his bad things The person would jump out and invite the police to take him in public.
Looking at Du Junying shrinking in the corner, who was also full of horror, Zhu Yigui's murderous intent towards him was even hotter than his heart for killing Wang Blind earlier.
"You really did it!?"
Reluctantly coped with those hospital affairs, and when the people left, Zhu Yigui asked Du Junying in a hoarse voice.
Du Junying almost cried, what is this? He shook his head first and then nodded, three days ago, he did ask his henchmen to find the triad people, promised two thousand rewards, and two thousand to pay afterwards. But the triad approached the man and said that if he wanted to find a credible person, it would take at least five days to do it, and he couldn't say whether the person had done it or not.
Knowing that he could still get rid of suspicion, Zhu Yigui was even more afraid, how did this matter come to this? If it weren't for Du Junying's line, but in the end, it would be more wronged than Dou E.
Scared to the extreme, but determined, Zhu Yigui stabilized his mind and said resolutely: "We can only go forward, your henchman can be disposed of, it is best to ......"
Zhu Yigui looked at Du Junying coldly, the latter shuddered, and quickly shook his head: "It's my Du family's son, you can't do this!" Otherwise, there will be more mistakes, and I will take care of it. ”
Zhu Yigui gritted his teeth and said: "Then let him go to Nanyang or even Tianzhu!" The farther away the better! ”
Du Junying nodded and asked again: "Then what should we do?" ”
Zhu Yigui smiled coldly: "What should I do?" As long as you sit in the position of the blind man, everything will be easy to do! ”
The East Court passed the bill of national mourning Wang Shishen on the second day, and the West Court seconded it on the same day.
Just when the two courts, the government hall and the emperor were using Wang Shishen's death as a weight to contribute to their own plans, the Tokyo General Police Station was also very neat, and the murderer was caught, but this does not mean that the truth is revealed. The murderer confessed that he had been instructed by a triad and promised a reward of three thousand taels, but he did not know who the man had instructed him.
The Criminal Department issued an urgent arrest warrant to arrest all the triad members in China, and with this big net casting, not only Zhu Yigui was in a panic all day, but some others were also living like a year, and it was difficult to sleep and eat. (To be continued)
