Chapter 155: Investigation of the case
After Zun Mojun came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he walked straight to the cell where Yu'er was held.
As soon as he pushed the door open and entered, he saw Feng Qi kneeling at the door of the cell, clasping his hands into fists, and said to Zun Mojun, "Lord Qi, your subordinates are guilty, please punish the prince." ”
With a question mark on his face, he looked at the guards around him, and the soldiers who were supposed to be working in the courtyard also knelt in front of Zun Mojun one after another.
"What's wrong?" Zun Mojun asked.
Feng Qi lowered his head and said to Zun Mojun, "Lord Wang, the criminal who assassinated the princess, is dead. ”
Zun Mojun was taken aback when he heard what Feng Qi said to him, and then an overwhelming anger surged up, and he said loudly to the guards kneeling in front of him, "I have raised you for so long? Can't do such a trivial thing? You can't stand a woman in a prison cell? Do you know how important she is to the whole case? ”
The guards kneeling below trembled with fear, and none of them dared to raise their heads to face the angry Venerable Mojun.
Feng Qi on the side secretly raised his head, he thought in his heart that he was also in charge of affairs outside of Zun Mojun, and the person in charge here was an official position that was more important than others, not to mention that he was also involved in the whole thing.
Feng Qi cleared his throat and said to Zun Mojun, "Lord Wang, the soldiers on guard reported this matter to me that day and night, and we also went to investigate, someone prepared in advance, put medicine in the meal of the guards guarding the door, and then mixed in and strangled this prisoner to death. ”
Zun Mojun listened to Feng Qi's meaning, and it seemed that he had already investigated the matter before he came, so he asked.
"What about the man? Did you catch it? ”
Feng Qi shook his head and said to Zun Mojun, "The person who sneaked in was extremely skilled, and his subordinates saw traces of this person on the rubble of the cell that night. ”
He thought for a moment, then said, "It's a man. ”
After hearing this, Zun Mojun became even more angry, he threw the fan in his hand to the ground and smashed it on Fengqi's head, "It's a man?" There are tens of thousands of men in this Great Zhou Dynasty? Do you have to bring each one of them over for trial? What the hell have you been doing in my absence? ”
Feng Qi was asked by Zun Mojun without words, so he could only kneel on the ground and quietly wait for Zun Mojun's fate.
Zun Mojun looked at the people below with their heads down, calmed down the anger in his heart, and thought that it was not a solution for him to lose his temper here at this time, and nothing could be solved.
He let out a sigh of relief and told everyone to get up and go about their business, except for Fengqi and the guards on duty that night to follow him.
I found a room where no one was there and sat down.
"Tell me, I'm going to listen carefully from beginning to end." He said to Fengqi.
Feng Qi clenched his fists and knelt at the feet of Zun Mojun, "Lord Wang, I have already told you a rough idea outside just now, and this is how it happened, I had just arrived in the courtyard that night, and someone reported that the prisoner had died violently, so I took someone to check and found that the prisoner was leaning against the door of the cell, and his neck was strangled with a thin thread." ”
Zun Mojun raised his eyebrows and asked Feng Qi to continue.
"Then I asked the brother who was on duty that day, and he said that it was no different from usual, he was on duty in shifts, and he fell asleep after eating, and then he was woken up, and I listened to what the guard said, and I felt that it was wrong, and I thought that on weekdays, we were on duty every four hours, so I asked again."
The guard nodded in harmony beside him.
Feng Qi said, "Then the cook in the room told me that I saw a black shadow flash outside the window that day, and I jumped on the beam, and sure enough, there were footprints. ”
As he spoke, he took out a piece of rubble from the roof of his pocket and handed it to Zun Mojun for him to check.
Zun Mojun took the things in Feng Qi's hand, frowned and looked at the rubble carefully, on it was a man's half-palm-sized shoe print, the marks were extremely light, if you didn't look closely, it would be almost difficult to notice the marks on it.
He asked Feng Qi, "Have you checked against people?" ”
Feng Qi clenched his fists and said to Zun Mojun, "The subordinates have checked, and the subordinates searched for this mark during the day on the second day and walked all the way to a house in the market, and they disappeared. ”
"Have you gone to the house and asked?" Zun Mojun asked.
"Yes, but there is an old couple living in the house, and the subordinates and a few guards searched the whole house, but they did not see any suspicious figures, and the old woman also said that she did not hear any strange noises, maybe the person just blended into the crowd there and fled."
Zun Mojun angrily slapped the table and made Feng Qi stand up.
He looked at Feng Qi and asked, "Then what is the difference between you saying that and not checking?" ”
Feng Qi was frightened and hurriedly admitted his mistake to Zun Mojun, he frowned, and said the concerns that he had been thinking about in his heart for the past few days.
"Lord Wang, I actually have doubts."
Zun Mojun sat down and asked, "Who?" ”
Feng Qi glanced at the guards beside him, and the guards retreated sensibly to the side, and he approached Zun Mojun and said to him, "I know the light skills on this rubble, and there are only two people in the world who can do this kind of martial arts, one is my master, and the other is a partner who practices martial arts with me." ”
When Feng Qi defected to Zun Mo Jun, Zun Mo Jun knew that his master would learn two unique skills.
But then he thought about it, Fengqi's master had died a few years earlier, and this partner of his had heard him mention it, saying that he was already dead.
He couldn't help asking, "Didn't you say that your master and your partner were long gone?" Why are these footprints appearing again? Could it be that you do these things? ”
Feng Qi hurriedly shook his head in denial, and knelt at the feet of Zun Mojun, "Lord Wang, I have been following you since I was a teenager, and I can learn from your heart, how can it be me?" ”
He furrowed his eyebrows and thought for a moment, then continued.
"The master is the bones that I buried myself, which is undeniable, but as for my partner, the master told me that he went out to compete with others and died, but now it seems that he should still be in this world."
Zun Mojun looked at Feng Qi who was kneeling on the ground, his personality Zun Mojun naturally knew, he was wearing a good swordsmanship, wearing tattered clothes on the street, Zun Mojun saw his martial arts on the street that day he received him under his command, so many years have been by his side to protect himself, what kind of difficulties and dangers Feng Qi is the first to rush forward, he knows that Feng Qi will not deceive him.
