Cheng Chumo did not answer Li Chengqian's words, because in his opinion, Tang Jian is a person of noble status, if Tang Jian is regarded as a person with no background, then who is a person with a background? Cheng Chumo also knew that Li Chengqian was not talking about this background, but referring to the background of the royal scholars.

Li Chengqian didn't say much, looked at Cheng Chu and said silently: "Father should be back soon, you let the people from Jingzhao Yin Mansion investigate clearly, the cause of the fire, how the person died, you must investigate this case carefully!" ”

Cheng Chumo came to Tang Jian's house with the order, and looked at the originally magnificent house, but it turned into ashes at this moment.

The bodies of Tang Jian's father and son have been carried back to the morgue of Jingzhao Yin Mansion, Cheng Chumo looked at the devastation and sighed a little and said: "It's really impermanent, people who were fine yesterday will die if they say they die today!" It's horrible! ”

The head catcher who came to handle the case on the side also sighed a little when he heard Cheng Chumo's words, but he didn't comment on anything, but pulled Cheng Chumo to the corner of the room and said: "General Cheng, look here, we speculate that this should be the place where the fire source started, but the strange thing is that there are also traces of burning on the ground, and this oil lamp has also been burned out of shape, so we speculate that it should be Lord Tang's father and son drinking in the house, and after drinking too much, they accidentally knocked over the oil lamp, and the flame burned and then broke the wine bottle. The wine in the bottle burned their clothes, and then the two of them set the house on fire! ”

Saying this, he quickly pointed to the bed in the room and said: "This bed is said to be made of solid wood, but at the moment it has been burned to the point that only carbon remains, and the wood of solid wood should not be so easy to burn, it is possible that Lord Tang was deceived by the merchant!" ”

Cheng Chu was about to talk nonsense when he heard him say two words, and hurriedly interrupted: "Where did Lord Tang's father and son die last night!" ”

Catch quickly came to the place where the two died, and said while pointing it out to Cheng Chumo: "This is the place where Lord Tang's body was found!" ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the place on the side and said, "This is the place where Lord Tang's son died, and it is obvious that there are no traces of burning on the ground here, and the color of the floor tiles can be seen." ”

Cheng Chumo looked at the traces on the ground with a little headache, and said helplessly: "Okay, you investigate again, I'll go to the morgue to have a look, I should have seen almost the same!" ”

The head catcher hurriedly replied: "It's long gone, and now you should see that it's almost over, just go over, my lord!" ”

Cheng Chumo nodded and walked in the direction of the morgue.

The fire in Tang Jian's mansion and even the death of Tang Jian's father and son soon spread throughout Chang'an City.

In the past, Wei Zheng was assassinated, and then Tang Jian played with fire and set himself on fire.

The people had to turn their attention to Li Chengqian, hoping that he could give a result as soon as possible, instead of increasing the number of patrols and guards as they are now, but they couldn't stop the assassins from committing murder.

It was as if everyone had decided that Tang Jian's death was the work of the assassins.

The people sat in the streets, watching the soldiers coming and going, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Why do you say that not long after the emperor left, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was able to make the entire Chang'an City so chaotic!"

"Naturally, it is because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no prestige, so his subordinates are not so convinced, and no one helps him, so he is like this!"

"I don't think that's the case, but it further confirms the wisdom and martial arts of the current emperor, I can only hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can learn more things in the past few years of the emperor's reign, otherwise our life will be miserable in the future!"

"What do you know, just talk nonsense here, don't you know how many people the emperor took away in Goguryeo, it would be good to leave this little manpower to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to protect his own safety, and there was a rebellion of King Wei and King Chu before, and now King Wu led troops to force the palace, this royal matter is much more complicated than we thought!"

"That's what I said, the emperor personally conquered Goguryeo and heard that it was a big victory, but I don't know how long it will take for the emperor to come back!"

Listening to the unscrupulous remarks of the people, Cheng Chumo shook his head helplessly and came to the morgue.

Before he went in, he smelled a fragrance, Cheng Chumo cheered up and said as he walked inside: "What a smell, why is it so fragrant!" ”

Just after entering, the fragrance just now became a little weaker, but the smell of the corpse suddenly rushed over, Cheng Chumo hurriedly stopped his action of wanting to take a deep breath, looked at the still busy man and said: "What's the situation, how is it fragrant and smelly!" ”

He raised his head, looked at the person who came was Cheng Chumo, and said helplessly: "What you think is fragrant is the aroma of the meat of the Tang family's father and son, this heat is just right, and the meat is all cooked!" ”

Cheng Chu swallowed his saliva, looked at them and said, "Don't laugh here, how are you looking?" Can you go out with me and report on the situation? ”

He looked down at the corpse, and finally nodded: "Go out and say, the smell here is really too big!" ”

When he came outside, he looked at Cheng Chumo's disgusting appearance, and only felt a little funny, and after taking off the face towel on his face, he said: "Hasn't General Cheng been on the battlefield, isn't the situation there much more terrifying than here, how can seeing a corpse make you sick!" ”

Cheng Chu listened to his jokes, showing a look of helplessness, he didn't hide it, looked at him and said: "Although there are mountains of corpses and a sea of blood on the battlefield, there is more of a smell of blood, but the smell here is not the same as the smell of the thatched house, and the smell is really unbearable!" ”

After listening to Cheng Chumo's words, he nodded helplessly, but he didn't care about the problem of taste, looked at Cheng Chumo and said: "Tang Jian's father and son were burned to death, and their lungs were all black, not like a fire that was killed first and then lit, but it is not ruled out that the two of them drank too much and slept in the house, and outsiders came to light the fire." ”

Cheng Chumo nodded, thanked him and rushed back to Tang Jian's mansion.

On the way, I happened to meet Hou Junji who was leading the troops to patrol, and I saw Hou Junji waving his hand towards Cheng and said, "What's the situation, I heard that Tang Jianye and his wife were burned to death yesterday?" ”

Cheng Chumo nodded, and when he saw that there was no one around, he spoke: "I just went to the morgue, and I have done a test, both of them were burned to death, and they also smoked enough cigarettes in their lungs." ”

Hou Junji nodded at him, and said with some emotion: "Old Tang is sincere, I didn't expect to end up like this when I was old." ”

Saying that, Hou Junji waved his hand and left with the soldiers and horses.

Cheng Chumo didn't dare to delay, and once again found the catcher who was talking just now, looked at him and said, "Can you be sure that Tang Jian's father and son are the oil lamps that they accidentally overturned?" Is it possible that the subordinate or the assassin saw that Tang Jian's father and son were asleep, so they set the house on fire? ”

Catch Kuai was also thinking about it, but he still explained to Cheng Chumo: "The specific situation is unknown for the time being, General Cheng, look at the location of the burning house, the room next to him is uninhabited, and the next door next to him is also an empty house, I asked the next person just now, saying that Tang Jian and his son didn't know why they were very happy last night and had to drink something, but after the wine and food were served, they didn't let people wait, which caused the house to be on fire for a long time before being discovered." ”

Saying that, he looked at Cheng Chumo and said: "Because all the subordinates in the house said so, I guess I shouldn't have run away, and Tang Jian's wife also said that Tang Jian's father and son had to drink some wine together last night, and told her that she didn't have to wait for them to rest early tonight, so I boldly estimated that Tang Jian's father and son should have set the house on fire by mistake, and then because no one found out in a short time, this caused the two of them to be burned to death!" However, it is not ruled out that someone else did it, but no evidence has been found pointing to others! ”

Cheng Chumo nodded, looked at the catcher and said, "You investigate carefully, I will go back to the palace and report this matter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first." ”

In the palace, all the ministers came to the Jinluan Palace, wanting to discuss the safety issue with Li Chengqian, after all, everyone is in danger now, and two adults have been killed one after another, and no one wants to die unclear.

When Li Chengqian was having a headache, Cheng Chumo came back from outside and told Li Chengqian about the investigation, and Li Chengqian felt a little relieved.

However, Li Chengqian still said with a straight face: "Cheng Chumo, you can tell all the adults about the investigation, so as not to panic the adults." ”

Cheng Chumo knew what Li Chengqian meant, and looked at the adults: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have consulted the Jingzhao Yin Mansion about the cause of Tang Shangshu's death, and after confirming with them repeatedly, I came to the conclusion that Tang Shangshu and his son accidentally knocked over the oil lamp after getting drunk last night, and then the oil lamp ignited the remaining wine, and the wine ignited the house, which caused a tragedy. ”

After listening to Cheng Chumo's words, all the adults breathed a sigh of relief, but Fang Xuanling still said with some concern: "How did you conclude that Tang Jian's father and son were the oil lamps that they accidentally overturned?" ”

Cheng Chumo looked at him a little helplessly and said: "There were no traces or evidence of other people's murders at the scene, and the subordinates of Tang Shangshu's mansion and Tang Shangshu's wife were sure that their father and son took the initiative to ask not to let them disturb the two of them to drink, so it will be more certain that the two of them accidentally knocked over the oil lamp after getting drunk." ”

After a pause, Cheng Chumo seemed to feel a little unscrupulous, and continued: "The lungs of Lord Tang's father and son were determined to be burned to death after examination, not that they were killed first and then ignited. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji snorted coldly and looked at Cheng Chumo and said: "How can there be such a coincidence, Wei Zheng was assassinated with the front foot, and Tang Jian was burned to death at his own house with the back foot, it must have been done by the assassin!" ”

Li Chengqian saw that these two people didn't eat oil and salt, and said helplessly: "What do you say now?" Do you want me to close the city like my father? We don't have enough manpower! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji rolled his eyes, looked at Li Chengqian and said, "That's it, since His Highness has no good way, just don't do it!" ”

Li Chengqian looked at the eldest grandson Wuji in confusion and said, "What do you mean by this?" What exactly does it mean not to do it? Please explain it clearly! ”
