Chapter 269: Blocking News
"King, Felton, the head of the Governor's Mansion of the Left, said outside the mansion that there is an urgent matter to see the king, do you want to see it or not?" Not long after Qin Dong received the news of Da Dan Yu's defeat and death and immediately blocked the news, Batu came to report.
Qin Dong knew that the guards and cavalry of the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion must have found Edika's body and would immediately report the matter, Edika was already there, so there was no one in the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion to preside over the overall situation, and the mansion was in the time when the six gods were without a master, at this time they naturally thought of Qin Dong, the new aunt, and only Qin Dong, the new aunt, was qualified to deal with Edika's death.
"Let him in!"
"Yes, King!"
After a while, Batu led Felton in, and when Felton saw Qin Dong, he howled and cried: "King, my master has been stabbed to death, woo woo woo-."
Qin Dong's face changed, and he stood up in shock and said loudly: "What? What did you say? My father-in-law was stabbed to death? Tell me, what the hell is going on? Who did it? ”
Felton hurriedly explained the matter briefly, and finally cried: "My lord, my master died too miserably, he was hit by several arrows, and when the guards who were led away found out that something was wrong and rushed back to catch up, my master was already dead, the king must avenge my master, our people found some arrows and weapons at the scene, as well as several assassin corpses, we found that those corpses were Ostrogoths!" ”
Qin Dong was "furious" and said, "These assassins are lawless, by the way, does Sula know about this?" ”
Felton shook his head and said, "I rushed over to see you as soon as I got the news, and I haven't had time to see Her Royal Highness Princess Sulla!" ”
Qin Dong thought for a while and said, "This matter is not something that can be concealed if you want to. But now Princess Sula is a little unwell, and if she suddenly hears the news that her father-in-law was stabbed to death, she will definitely not be able to stand it, so I think I will hide it from her for the time being. I'll tell her when the time is right. In addition, you should hurry back to the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion to sit down, and tell the officials and army generals not to mess up, and inform the officials and generals above the rank of centurion of the army to rush to the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion immediately to discuss the matter, but do not tell them the news of your father-in-law's assassination before they arrive, lest people with ulterior motives take advantage of this matter to cause trouble.
Felton saw that Qin Dong was calm as usual. He was very well-conditioned and put his mind at ease, but he couldn't help but be sad, he saluted Qin Dong and said, "Yes." The villain immediately went back to inform the officials and generals above the rank of centurion to come to discuss the matter, and wait for the king to come and preside over the overall situation! ”
"Go ahead!" Qin Dong waved his hand.
After Felton left, Qin Dong immediately ordered the military to set up checkpoints on various communication arteries in his territory and block all exit channels at the border. All business travelers and pedestrians who want to leave the country are subject to strict inspection. As soon as any suspicious appearance is found, or all persons with weapons are arrested, the Patrol Bureau of the Sedika Archon's Office is ordered to immediately and strictly search all the hotels and carriage shops in the city. After arranging this matter, Qin Dong took several staff members and escorts from the Eastern Courtyard Grand Palace's Mansion to the Zuo Grand Governor's Mansion.
Just as she was about to go out, Princess Sula, who didn't know how to get the news of her father's death, ran out and pulled Qin Dong and shouted: "You sue me, this is not true, my father will not die!" ”
Qin Dong stopped and said, "It turns out that you all know, you are pregnant now, I am afraid that you will not be able to stand it." I wanted to find a suitable time to tell you again, but I didn't expect you to find out so soon. People can't be resurrected after death, for the sake of the child in your belly, you must take care of your body, according to Feltun, the head of the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion, the father-in-law has not been dead for a long time, and the assassins should not have run far, rest assured, I have ordered the army to block all the exits as quickly as possible, and the assassins should still be in the territory where we can control them, as long as they are still on our territory, they will not be able to escape! ”
Sulla's body was crooked and fainted, Qin Dong hurriedly hugged him, causing a big mess among the maids and guards around him, Qin Dong loudly scolded everyone not to mess up, and after everyone calmed down, he sent someone to find Charlie Cao, and Charlie Cao woke up soon after Charlie came.
After Sula woke up, he looked at the people around him and said to Qin Dong, "Let them all go out!" ”
Hearing this, Qin Dong waved his hand to everyone else, and the maids, guards, and some staff members all walked out, at this time Sura stared at Qin Dong's eyes and said, "Sue me, did you send someone to kill my father?" ”
Qin Dong smiled bitterly and said: "You are always suspicious, you always imagine me to be so evil, that's right, my marriage to you is indeed a deal between me and my father-in-law, I promised him to take good care of you, and he promised the whole clan of the Skir people to fully support me, my father-in-law is one of the people I admire, he is a very loyal person, he is loyal to Attila in his life, such a person is worthy of admiration."
If you think about it, what good will it do me if my father-in-law dies? This will only make the situation more chaotic, the death of my father-in-law will cause the people of Skil to have no leader, no one who can calm the scene, which will cause unrest in the entire Balkan Peninsula and Thrace, which is not what I want to see, so not only do I not want my father-in-law to have an accident, but I also want him to live well, you understand? ”
Sula stared at Qin Dong until two minutes later before she said, "If I find out that you killed my father for power, I will definitely not let you go!" ”
"I think you should have a good rest, don't be too tired, I'm going to Zuo Dadu's Mansion to deal with my father-in-law's funeral, and when my father-in-law is buried, I will send someone to pick you up, and you won't go to the wake these days!" Qin Dong stood up and said a few words before turning around and leaving.
When Qin Dong rushed to the Zuo Governor's Mansion with his escort team and staff, he was informed that the officials and generals above the centurion level who had come to discuss the matter had not yet arrived, and Felton, the head of the Zuo Governor's Mansion, welcomed Qin Dong into the mansion at the door.
Qin Dong asked as he walked, "Have all the people arrived?" ”
Felton said: "King, a little farther away has not yet arrived, it is estimated that it will not arrive until the afternoon."
Qin Dong nodded, and ordered: "That's it, I see that there are enough rooms in the Zuo Dadu Governor's Mansion, you first send someone to arrange rooms for the officials and officers who have already come, if the room is not enough, a few people in a room, there must be food and wine at noon and night, if according to the situation you said, the assassin should still be in our jurisdiction, this king has ordered the blockade of all exit passages before he came just now, and ordered the Criminal Investigation Department of the Patrol Bureau under the jurisdiction of the municipal consul to immediately dispatch capable personnel to investigate and hunt down the assassin, Solve the case within three days, catch the assassin and avenge your father-in-law! ”
Felton nodded, and said with tears in his eyes: "If it weren't for the king, the villain wouldn't know what to do, and now Her Royal Highness Princess Sula is unwell and can't work, so she can only trouble the king!" ”
"As it should be!" Qin Dong said a few perfunctory words and asked, "You said earlier that there were several Ostrogothic corpses at the scene of your father-in-law's assassination?" ”
"Yes!"
"But as far as I know, only a part of the Ostrogoths live south of the Razlog fortress, but those have become obedient people, they should not have a grudge against their father-in-law, if they want to kill me, after all, I captured their land, not assassinated my father-in-law!"
Felton said: "Yes, my lord, I am sure that those Ostrogoths are not from the south, but from the north, they are the people of King Diodmir, do not hide from the king, a few days ago Diodmir sent people to persuade my master to join his alliance with the Gepidians, but my master did not agree, and drove them out on the spot, saying that it was for the sake of the Germans to spare their lives, but I did not expect them to assassinate their master ....... with a grudge."
Qin Dong clenched his fist and hammered it in the palm of his other hand, "That's right, now it is certain that the Ostrogoths did it, Dio Demir, I didn't expect this guy to be so vicious, he couldn't persuade to send someone to assassinate, and it should be him who really killed his father-in-law - Dio Demir, after we catch the assassin, we will make another plan, in short, this revenge cannot be avenged!" Batu, you have sent to inform the inspectors of the Arrest Bureau to solve this case, and to tell them to move the object of their pursuit to the Ostrogoths, and to pay special attention to the Ostrogoths in the territory, especially those who have come from the north."
"Yes, King!" Batu agreed, turned his head and ordered one of the guards to go and inform.
While speaking, Qin Dong and the others had already walked to the meeting room, and there were already many people sitting in the huge meeting room at this time, among these people there were not only civilian officials, but also generals above the rank of centurion of the army, these people were talking in a low voice about why so many of them were summoned this time, which was rare in the past.
Seeing Qin Dong coming, both the civil officials and the generals in the living room stood up and saluted Qin Dong, and some officials who were familiar with Qin Dong also came over to say a few words to him, and some people were very puzzled, the Zuo Metropolitan Governor's Mansion convened these officials and generals to discuss their affairs, it should be said that it has nothing to do with Qin Dong, the king of the Eastern Courtyard, if it is convened by the Eastern Courtyard Palace, this conference should be held in the Eastern Courtyard Palace, it should not be here! Nominally, the Zuo Metropolitan Governor's Mansion should be under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Courtyard Prince's Mansion, but this is only nominal, but in fact, the Zuo Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is not under the supervision of the Eastern Courtyard King militarily, but directly obeys the orders of Da Shan Yu, but in terms of government affairs, it must obey the orders of Qin Dong, the king of the Eastern Courtyard.
Not all the officials under the Zuo Dadu Governor's Office are Skiers, only a small part of the officials of the Skir people are Huns, most of them are Huns and people of other nationalities, and they together form the official office system of the Zuo Dadu Governor's Office, and Qin Dong is Edika's son-in-law, all the Skir officials have a good impression of him, after all, they are a family, Qin Dong is still Edika's heir in name, once Edika has an accident, they will take Qin Dong as the leader.
