Chapter 306: Family Affairs
When an accident occurred in Chang'an City, the public security department had the unshirkable responsibility to shoulder the task of tracking down the murderers. The originally festive wedding was also disrupted, all etiquette was simple, Liu Yu and Qi'er did not go through the church, and directly sent the bride into the cave room, and then Liu Yu had to arrange other things to leave Qi'er out in the cold.
There was a lot of noise in the city, and it was not until later that Luan drove back to the palace under the heavy protection of the Imperial Forest Army, and then Liu Yu, the forward general, held an emergency meeting with the Yamen of the Sixth Defense Division in the city, Li Mi, the chief general of the Dongshui Battalion who entered the city, and Yin Suiyi of Jingzhao Mansion, to agree on the arrest plan for the night. Subsequently, a vigorous purge in the city was launched, and each yamen was divided into responsibility areas and searched Chang'an City door to door.
The operation was a thunderous operation, vigorous and resolute, and it was not without harvest after an operation, capturing a lot of bandits and unregistered people hiding in Chang'an City, among which Liu Yu felt that the most suspicious of possible offenders were some Turkic sentinels. It's a pity that these sentries are specially trained, and seeing that their hiding is exposed, they directly commit suicide and don't get any other valuable information. And from that night, the direction of the investigation was also extending from inside the city to outside the city, regardless of whether the perpetrator was still in the city or not, there must be someone outside the city to respond.
It wasn't until the second half of the night that Liu Yu returned home, the explosion point outside the house and the stumps and severed arms had been cleaned up, the wine table and meals in the courtyard of the house had also been cleaned up, and Xu Xuanzhu was sorting out some gift lists in the main hall. Seeing Liu Yu coming back, Xu Xuanzhu's face did not have too much waves, and asked, "Husband, have you eaten something to eat?" ”
Xu Xuanzhu didn't say it, Liu Yu really didn't feel hungry, so his stomach was still a little unbearable. Xu Xuanzhu asked the maid to prepare a supper. Liu Yu barely ate some. It's as if you're full after a few bites.
"Husband, have you found out who did it?" Xu Xuanzhu asked intentionally or unintentionally.
After getting married. Xu Xuanzhu has rarely asked about political affairs, even military affairs, if it weren't for Xu Caihua, Xu Xuanzhu would not be willing to take care of it. This time she took the initiative to ask about the Assassin's situation, which also showed the importance she attached to this matter. The incident happened at the door of his own house, and it was very targeted, and it was aimed at Liu Yu and the new emperor.
"I haven't investigated it yet." Liu Yu sighed, "The guess may be related to the Turks." ”
"Why do you always want to be outside. Maybe inside, there are also people who want to make the emperor and her husband unhappy! Xu Xuan said.
Liu Yue heard that Xu Xuanzhu seemed to have something to say, and after thinking about it carefully, Xu Xuanzhu's meaning was obviously to let him guard against those people around him, but unfortunately now he was the enemy of Liu Yue, Yuan Bolang and his family of Wenchen should not do this, and the vassal king may not be able to afford such a big wave, will the rest be the king of Chu? Or is it the remnant of King Huai's Dingwang?
"Madame, why don't you speak up?"
Liu Yu stepped forward and grabbed Xu Xuanzhu's hand, Xu Xuanzhu glanced at Liu Yu with disgust, and put the gift list down again.
The concubine thought. To be able to commit murder in Chang'an City without being discovered in advance must be extremely familiar with Chang'an City. Except for the people in the court, no one else may have such a ability! ”
Liu Yu was surprised, and thought that this was really the case.
Committing a crime in Chang'an City, being so prepared and deployed, and escaping investigation afterwards, it must have been done by someone who was very clear about the deployment of Chang'an City's military forces. Liu Yu always wondered who could do this and who would benefit from it, but ignored who had the conditions to do it.
But in terms of specific personnel, Liu Yu couldn't think of anything. But he probably felt that this dangerous person was very close to him.
"Let's go and accompany Sister Qi'er earlier, she's waiting for you in the room!" Xu Xuanzhu saw that Liu Yue had eaten and refused to leave, so he pushed Liu Yu and said.
Liu Yu smiled narrowly on his face and said, "Sister Qi'er? ”
Xu Xuanzhu said: "The concubine has already gone to see her before, she was scared a lot, and now she is still hiding in the quilt and refusing to come out, the concubine called two maids to accompany her, but I haven't seen you, I guess she won't be too relieved." ”
Liu Yu nodded and sighed, Qi'er is also quite innocent, witnessing such a tragic event on the day of her wedding must have touched her flawless heart, now Qi'er is a member of the family, Liu Yu must also take on the responsibility of protecting her.
"I'm going, ma'am." Liu Yu said partingly.
Xu Xuanzhu pushed him again and said, "Mother-in-law, Sister Qi'er definitely can't wait!" ”
Liu Yue walked out of the main hall, and the entire Forward General's Mansion was still shrouded in flames, and the guards of the Royal Forest Army and the female army went in and out to prevent anyone from disturbing them. Qi'er's new house is the courtyard of the West Wing, which was originally prepared to entertain guests, and there will never be any guests in the Qianfeng General's Mansion, and the courtyard is quiet, but when he arrived at the courtyard, Liu Yu still saw two rare guests, sister Liu Jue and little nephew Cao Zhan.
After half the night, their mother and son should have gone to sleep, but because of the noisy movement of soldiers and horses outside, Liu Jue only dared to take Cao Zhan out to fetch water and wash his face.
"Uncle, the villain is caught?" When Cao Zhan saw Liu Yu, he jumped over and asked.
"Hmm. Grab it, and you can sleep well! Liu Yu smiled.
Cao Zhan cheered and jumped into the door, but Liu Jue knew that things were not so simple, and he stopped talking, Liu Yue knew what she wanted to say, and said: "Brother Qi is still in the barracks today, and he has not entered the city with the army, so there will be no danger." ”
Liu Jue lowered her head shyly, in front of this younger brother, she wanted to ask about Ailang's safety but couldn't wipe off her face, which made her a little ashamed.
Seeing that Liu Jue and Cao Zhan had entered the house, Liu Yu entered the only small building in the courtyard of the West Chamber, and when he entered the door, the maid was coming out with tea, and almost hit Liu Yu, and the maid knelt down in fright and said, "Master...... The slave didn't mean it. ”
"I don't blame you, new lady...... How is the princess? ”
The maid said, "The princess refuses to see us, saying that she will wait for the master to come!" ”
Liu Yue knows that Lu Daoqi'er is not a person who plays tricks, although she is a princess, but the palace maids and female officials treat her very strictly on weekdays, and she does not breed the arrogant temper of the princess.
When Liu Yu arrived in the room, he didn't see Qi'er's figure, and if he looked closely, there was a quilt on the bed, and he could vaguely hear a whimpering cry.
"Qi'er."
Liu Yu shouted, the crying stopped immediately, Qi'er wiped her tears and got out of the quilt, and when she saw Liu Yu, she put down the quilt, and Qi'er's face was full of sweat at this time, and her whole face was red. Although she lights a candle, Qi'er still likes to hide under the dark covers.
"There's nothing to do, there's nothing to do." Liu Yu said, "The bad guys are gone." ”
"Qi'er is not a child, Brother Liu doesn't need to coax me like this."
Liu Yu's face turned red and took Qi'er in his arms. The tentacles were full of beads of sweat. (To be continued......)
