Chapter 40: Zhuang has no blood

————————

The administration of officials in this dynasty follows the ancient calendar, and the criminal justice is divided into two places, and the first instance criminal department is set up in the prefecture and the three prefectures, and the criminal department supervises and supervises the criminal justice of the local yamen, and then reports to the criminal department sitting in the capital.

But that is a normal prison, since the founding of the country, because of the prosperity of martial arts, in order to balance the people of the world, the criminal law can not be unified, so a separate edict prison was set up, but all those involved in martial arts or religious evil laws were uniformly transferred to the Supervision Yuan for investigation.

And Zhao Jinghuan's matter, whether it is the presence of cult people or the specifications of the hands, it is in line with the scope of the investigation of the Supervision Yuan, so that when Zhao Jinghuan's death was sent back to the capital by Ye Jun Shoufeiying, the other party learned the news very quickly, and then the imperial court sent people from the Supervision Yuan to arrive, and it was indeed about the same for five days.

Ming Jin put down the teacup, smiled under Xie Mingyue's worried gaze, and reached out to touch her head.

"It's just an inquiry."

——————

Indeed, it is just an inquiry.

In a hall, eight soldiers with knives trapped her in all directions, a table, two chairs, and the person opposite asked the next question with an expressionless face.

"Your father, Lord Xie, has a grudge against the deceased's father, Marquis Mingchang, do you know?"

"Now that you know the grudge, you are at odds with the little marquis, is it true?"

"Obviously just participating in the memorial, why do you bring so many guards? Even including your Xie family's secret guard, don't be in a hurry to deny it, I also know that you used your third uncle's authority to station a column of city defense troops at the foot of the mountain in advance. ”

"Are you familiar with the Eastern War? Does he favor you? ”

"Have you ever been in contact with the little marquis? How to get in touch and what was said? Separated? Are there witnesses? ”

"Cult Guangling Valley? Why is Guangling Valley eyeing you? ”

All the questions one after the other, all revolving around three things.

First, she had a motive for committing the crime.

Second, she has the ability to commit crimes.

Third, she has the opportunity to commit crimes.

The momentum is violent, ruthless, and the smell of cold and blood lingering on the other party's body makes ordinary people unbearable, this smell has nothing to do with clothing, and it has to do with this person's murderous hemp.

Ming Jin has lived in the capital for many years, so he naturally knows that Zhuang Wuxue, who is known as the jackal of the Supervision Yuan, is famous.

She sat there, answering from the first question, one after the other, methodically and undisorderedly.

The problem stopped suddenly, and Zhuang Wuxue's thin lips curled, revealing some dark yellow teeth, and smiling like a face.

"Second Miss Xie is very steady, not nervous at all, but seems to have prepared answers to these questions in advance, you know, the people who are examined by our Supervision Yuan are very scared nine times out of ten, and there are people who pee their pants on the spot."

There are words in these words, and they seem to be sharp, directly locking Ming Jin's throat.

"I'm naturally afraid, it's because I'm afraid, I can only tell the truth, and it's probably because Master Zhuang asked a question that I can tell the truth calmly."

Zhuang Wuxue's back leaned back slightly, leaning on the back of the chair, and his gloomy and sharp gaze like a jackal swept over Ming Jin's body inch by inch.

"Oh? Then you can talk about what you can't tell you openly. ”

"For example.... Why did Zhao Jinghuan suddenly come to Wuling from the capital, for example, why did I encounter two assassinations in succession as soon as he came. ”

Zhuang Wuxue's thick black eyebrows trembled, and the rest of the people in the Supervision Yuan were a little surprised, probably not expecting that this Miss Xie Er, who was in a bad situation and was suspected of being the murderer, would fight back in this way.

"I've heard that people who have been cornered... Or the dog, either jump over the wall or bite back, I don't know what kind of Miss Xie Er belongs to? ”

Humiliation, meanness, and hostility are another reason why this central figure of the Inspectorate is disliked.

He never cared who was sitting across from him, his eyes, his mouth, everything about him was exactly in line with a jackal's aggressiveness.

Ming Jing turned a blind eye, only kept looking at the other party, and said: "Compared to me, I will definitely go to Luanxi Stream, isn't the arrival of the little marquis more unpredictable?" It's hard for me to calculate him, but he is easy to calculate me, if it's really my hand, it can only mean that Ming Changhou's intelligence is confidential to me like a bag to get something, if you want to kill him, when and what means can't work, you have to pick such an obvious way..."

Ming Jin folded his hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and looked at Zhuang Wuxue more deeply.

"Does Lord Zhuang think that I, a weak woman who was only pampered by the extravagance of the family's Zhong Ming Ding food, dared to offend the imperial court and dare to challenge the ability of the Supervision Yuan?"

Zhuang Wuxue mentioned slightly, "Second Miss Xie is really modest, you must know that your father is Lord Xie Yuanxie." ”

His words were meaningful, and his eyes were extremely revealing.

"Yes, my father is Xie Yuan, I am the eldest daughter of the Xie family, I occupy the power and majesty of the family, and it is not difficult for me to have power and fame, as long as I want - and you also think that my father is willing to give it."

Zhuang Wuxue was noncommittal, "We know Lord Xie very well, and we do have this kind of judgment. ”

This sentence is more explicit.

What kind of person can be the Supervisory Yuan constantly investigating, and how dangerous is it in?

Ming Jin was not frightened, he just lowered his eyes, and spread out his palm, so that the damp heat in his palm was blown away by the cool breeze, and his pale fingers stroked the Buddha beads on his wrist, and said softly: "In this case, what good is it for me to kill him?" It doesn't give me higher power, but it is not conducive to the relationship between my Xie family and the Marquis of Ming Chang, motives and criminal acts are two different things, aren't they? ”

Then she was silent, just quietly looking at Zhuang Wuxue.

The latter also did not speak.

The atmosphere is heavy, like a cellar that has not been ventilated for a long time.... Ming Jin was a little distracted, and inexplicably thought of the cellar of the inn.

"Sounds reasonable."

Ming Jin came back to his senses, looked at the other party, and before he could respond, he saw the other party say slowly: "Oh, what I said is what you just mentioned - I suspect that Zhao Jinghuan has murderous intentions towards you." This suspicion is quite valid. ”

Ming Jin didn't think he was happy, but frowned slightly, at this moment, Zhuang Wuxue suddenly got up, and directly took a sip of the cup of tea that had already been cold and had not been moved, this was a real cow drink.

After drinking, he placed the teacup on the table very casually.

Said a word.

"So you know that he has murderous intentions for you, so it is reasonable to strike first and use the existence of the cult that you already know to kill him."

Then he smiled coldly at Ming Jin, revealing a wild cruelty.

Ming Jin pursed his lower lip slightly.

"The tea is good, I hope to invite Miss Xie Er to our supervision institute for tea another day, and the gifts are still exchanged."

Zhuang Wuxue stood up, the blood on his body surging.

Only then did Ming Jin notice that there was a layer of blood stains on the hem of the other party's clothes.

Attacked?

I'm afraid it's not a smooth journey, but who will attack and kill them.... Isn't it most likely that they want to be investigated by themselves or the Xie family?

For example, Xie Yuan.

If the other party thinks so, it's no wonder that they will make things difficult for themselves.

"Master Zhuang."

Ming Jin summoned Zhuang Wuxue, the other party turned around and raised his eyebrows, "Second Miss Xie plans to turn herself in?" ”

There was not a word of kindness in this man's mouth.

Ming Jin's nerves burst out for a moment, and then smiled slightly, "Lord Zhuang is bleeding from the back of his pants, but you want to take a bath and change clothes at my Xie family?" ”

The atmosphere of coldness, persecution, and confrontation seems to have frozen.

Including the eight gatekeepers of the Inspectorate, they were enduring it, and they managed to endure it, but....

Burst!

There was movement outside the hall and from the window.

Originally, I wanted to remind the other party that it was not her Xie family's hand, because her father's hand must be a dead hand, not to mention that the other party is the Supervision Yuan, if it is not a blow, it will be more than worth the loss, and it is impossible to let these people in the Supervision Yuan suffer a little injury.

But as soon as she called the other party and saw Zhuang Wuxue's eyes, she suddenly came to her senses - what is the place of the other party's Supervision Yuan, what kind of person is this person, how can she not see through the unreasonableness of it, it is such a hostile attitude, either she deliberately makes trouble with the Xie family, or she has another plan.

So she immediately changed her words.

And then that's it, but there's a little movement outside the window....

Ming frowned, uneasy in his heart, and was about to speak.

"Who?" Zhuang Wuxue said lazily.

Everyone looked at it together, but before they could see anything, they heard Ming Jin say apologetically: "It's my cat that bothers you." ”

"Cats?" Zhuang Wuxue glanced at the window with an expressionless face, sneered, and said, "There are so many cats in the Xie family, but there are not only one or two outside the window." ”

This is a pun.

He walked out of the door with the people from the Supervision Institute, and his eyes swept casually, just catching a glimpse of the slender figure looming under the window hidden by flowers and trees, as if covering the mouth of another little girl.

——————

After Zhuang Wuxue and the others left, Xie Mingdai took Xie Mingyue and the others into the hall, and they were still pushing each other, but they were soon silent, because they saw that Ming Jin's face was extremely serious and his eyes were sharp.

Half ringing.

"I... I didn't mean to, I blame you for what you said before, which amused me. ”

Xie Mingyue quibbled, and in the end, she didn't dare to speak again.

"If you encounter this kind of thing in the future, don't come over."

Ming Jin said lightly.

Before Xie Mingyue could say anything, Xie Mingdai became angry and sneered: "Do we need your permission to go anywhere?" What a stinky face you put on! ”

Ming Jin looked at Xie Mingdai's angry eyes, but he frowned, but he didn't quarrel with him.

She didn't speak, Xie Mingdai was also a tsundere person who held her own identity, so she naturally didn't speak, but her face was ugly, and she was very angry when she saw Ming Jin's eyes.

Xie Mingyue looked at Ming Jin on the left and Xie Mingdai on the right, just about to say something.

Peony outside suddenly rushed to report something.

Xu Qiubai begged to see him.

It's coming.

Ming Jin's eyes drooped slightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
