Chapter 14 All are to be confessed
A patrol who patrolled on behalf of the heavens died on his territory, Zhen Shiyuan suddenly opened his eyes and sat up: "What about Su Patrol?" ”
When the doctor saw that he had woken up, he was relieved and stood up and saluted him: "I've seen Lord Zhen." ”
Zhen Shiyuan nodded indiscriminately and looked into the room, only to find that several local officials who were familiar with him on weekdays were in the house, and they were looking at him with a sad face at this time.
"Su Xun is dead." Gusu County Ling sighed and said, "I died in my Jiangnan Mansion, I'm afraid it's not easy to explain this matter!" ”
At first glance last night, when he saw Su Xun's death, Zhen Shiyuan's eyes fainted, and it was already daytime when he woke up. Recalling yesterday's scene, Zhen Shiyuan gasped, rolled over from the bed, picked up the robe that was put on the side and asked, "What about those people?" ”
Although he did not name names, it was clear to everyone that he was referring to the accompanying officials in the team that patrolled on behalf of the heavens.
"I went to the site to check it out." Several local officials looked at each other, and finally the Gusu county magistrate came out and said, "They also brought their own ......."
Zhen Shiyuan's action of tying his clothes suddenly slowed down: Bring your own work? It seems that those officials from Beijing can't trust them! But believe it or not, this is still a trivial matter, and if Su Xun doesn't give an explanation, the officials of the entire Jiangnan Mansion will suffer.
Thinking of this, Zhen Shiyuan hurriedly raised his voice: "What about our work? ”
An official said, "I'm waiting outside." ”
"Okay." Zhen Shiyuan nodded and strode out, "Su Xun died in Jiangnan Mansion, my Jiangnan Mansion naturally can't stand by and watch, check!" They check! We're going to check it too! ”
The officials in the room all gathered the expressions on their faces, lowered their heads and said yes. This matter cannot be left to the attention of those officials in Beijing, if it is not resolved, everyone will suffer.
Zhen Shiyuan led a group of local officials in Jinling to the place where the accident happened yesterday, which was in the pear blossom forest on the side of Xuanzhen Temple: "This official remembers that the assassin came last night......
An official answered: "When the banquet was about to begin, the fireworks banquet began, and the patrol lord asked everyone not to be restrained, just feel free, and he got up himself, and it was very chaotic at that time, and he didn't pay attention to where the patrol lord went......
Zhen Shiyuan couldn't help but purse his lips: he actually knew that Su Xun wanted to use his body as bait to lure the assassin here, and he was very opposed at the time, but he couldn't resist Su Xun. Look! Sure enough, something happened!
A trace of chagrin flashed in Zhen Shiyuan's heart: Now that the person is dead, he is indispensable to be held accountable.
When the officials of Jinling arrived, the bodies of Su Xunji and those assassins had not yet been transported, and the servant from Beijing was conducting an autopsy, and more than a dozen officials from Beijing were watching by the pear blossom forest, turning their heads and whispering from time to time. As if to say something.
Losers don't lose. Zhen Shiyuan straightened his back and walked over.
"This matter is actually very simple," Zhen Shiyuan said and looked at the group of officials, "Su Xun is not here, who can be the master at the moment?" ”
An old man in a scarlet official uniform in his fifties stood up: "A certain Liu Jize is not talented, and he has temporarily won the trust of his colleagues, and Zhen Fuyin has something to say to Liu." ”
This is the accompanying official outsider, and it can be regarded as the largest of the accompanying officials in this line, regardless of age or official position. At least before someone came from Beijing, this Lord Liu was still the master.
Zhen Shiyuan raised his hand and saluted him, and said, "There is something I want to tell you......
"Last night, the reason why Su Xunji left alone was to lead to the slip through the net in the Yuzhou disaster relief fund embezzlement case," Zhen Shiyuan said, a trace of remorse flashed on his face, "I just didn't expect it...... Huh! ”
"Lord Zhen doesn't have to be upset!" A young man's voice rang out at this moment.
Zhen Shiyuan looked up and saw that a young official in the group of officials in Beijing spoke, that clear and handsome face stood out in the crowd, he recognized this face, which one was not the Li family and that Li Zhao? Seeing him speak, Zhen Shiyuan instinctively breathed a sigh of relief. His friendship with the Li family is not bad.
"Su Xunpress shouldn't have died at the hands of assassins," Li Zhao said and looked at the corpses of the fallen assassins, "Su Xunpress is extraordinary, Su Xunji has done this kind of thing several times before......
Did he mean the bait? Zhen Shiyuan inexplicably came up with an idea: how can he often stand by the river without getting his shoes wet. So, after doing this dangerous thing for a long time, something finally happened!
"Yes," the man who was bowing his head to examine the autopsy stood up, and when he saw that their group of officials were talking, he did not give courtesy, so he looked over like this, and there was an indescribable arrogance in his indifference.
There are many professions in the lower ninth rank, such as those who know some yin and yang mysticism, and there are very few who take off the shell of the lower ninth rank and become the heavenly master of the yin and yang division. And the work is obviously not one of these minority, it is still one of the nine streams, and even most of the people who do it are lowly people, and there are few civilians to do this kind of thing.
Zhen Shiyuan saw the waist card of Dali Temple on his body at a glance, and was a little surprised: this work is actually an official body, he has not heard of this person when he was in Dali Temple, but he didn't expect that after six or seven years of kung fu, even he has an official body.
However, since he can be given an official position, there should be no problem with this level of post-mortem examination.
"These assassins all died under a knife two inches wide and with a narrow blade, and the wounds were all in the neck, and the stab was fatal." The man said and pointed to the knife thrown next to Su Xun's body, "It's Su Xun's knife." Judging from the usual methods of the assassins killed by Su Xun, these assassins should have died at the hands of Su Xun, without exception. ”
"The assassins' blades haven't been unsheathed yet," Li Zhao pointed to the knives in the hands of those assassins, and replied, "Su Xun's knife technique is extremely fast, and he often succeeds before the other party makes a move. ”
"It's such a handsome kung fu!" Some officials couldn't help but sigh with emotion, but they only said a word, and then said no more. With such a powerful kung fu, this Su Xun is still dead. No wonder people say that those who drown are often good at drowning.
"These people got in under the name of the miscellaneous servants who transported the fireworks," Liu Jize took the roster handed by his subordinates and flipped through the road, "The number of miscellaneous servants who were killed halfway through the road coincided with the number of these assassins, and last night the entire Xuanzhen Temple was heavily guarded, and no one came out to watch." He said as he closed the roster, and the expression on his face turned cold, "So, the murderer must be in this Xuanzhen Temple." ”
……
"The government suspects that the murderer is in the Xuanzhen Temple." Qiao Ran rubbed her eyebrows with a headache, and stopped Hongdou's desire to investigate, "A patrol press died here, Jiangnan Mansion must give an explanation, you will go in vain, and you will be arrested as a suspect if you don't have to." ”
She and this Su Xunzi have only met once, and it is not enough to say that she is sad for Su Xun's death, but she feels as if she is holding a breath in her stomach when she thinks that he will sell Guanzi at that time and "tell her before leaving".
"What if you go like this" is really not something to be said casually. Su Xun will break it according to this line, and the current problem is that if this matter cannot be explained, something will happen to the entire Xuanzhen Temple. Seeing that she was doing nothing, she obviously couldn't do it.
"Anyway, I'm going to see the Lord." Qiao Ran stood up as she spoke, took the power fence handed by the red bean, and walked out, "Let's go down the mountain first." ”
