Chapter 39: Go Inside

After tidying up, she loosened her clothes and was about to rest, when a sharp knock on the door suddenly came to her ears.

Because Qin Ying's guards were guarding outside, Jiang Chuge had no scruples, and directly removed the door bolt and opened the door.

Dressed in the uniform of the Sentencing Division, bent over, with his hands propped on his knees, the figure of the errand officer who kept panting instantly caught his eye.

"Big ...... Adult, it's not good...... Now, in prison...... Suddenly broke into a group of people in black, many brothers were injured, and Liu Hu was also killed! ”

"What?"

Jiang Chuge was shocked, there were Qin Ying's people, how could this be?

In addition to being frightened, Jiang Chuge asked the four guards to take care of Yan Wanrong in the house, and then together with this officer, he went to the prison of the Criminal Division in a hurry.

However, at the last street corner leading to the prison, Jiang and the two suddenly found three men in men's clothes standing on the road in front of them.

They were tall, but because the other party had their backs to them, Jiang Chuge was not sure of their gender.

Under the reflection of the lanterns hanging on the side of the road in front of the three people, the shadows of the three people were stretched very long, accompanied by the freezing cold wind that whistled from time to time, in the streets of the cold winter night in Didu, such a scene seemed quite penetrating.

"Ghost ~ Big ...... My lord...... There was ......"

The errand officer beside Jiang Chuge had just experienced the assassin's robbery, and now when he saw such an eerie scene, he was so frightened that he couldn't speak.

"Don't scare yourself!"

Jiang Chuge interrupted his words in a deep voice, frowned and took a few steps forward, and arched his hand: "I don't know what is the purpose of the three of you blocking the road here late at night?" ”

"Hahaha~"

Jiang Chuge's voice fell, and among the three people opposite, the person standing in the middle suddenly laughed loudly.

Although the laughter was hearty, it directly frightened the errand officer beside Jiang Chuge.

Jiang Chuge was sure that the man who spoke just now was a man, and at the same time, he was able to hold the fainting messenger and pinch the person before waking him up.

"If you dare to faint again, I will dismiss you from your position and let you go home to farm."

Jiang Chuge warned loudly, she didn't know whether the three people on the other side were good or bad, if she needed to run for her life, she couldn't carry him!

Frightened by Jiang Chuge like this, the messenger barely held on, and stood beside her tremblingly.

"Jiang Tixing doesn't seem to be afraid of ghosts and gods?"

The man who had just spoken spoke again.

"Demons and gods only look for the guilty, I think I am worthy of my heart, why should I be afraid?"

Jiang Chuge's brows furrowed more and more, this person spoke inexplicably, and she couldn't guess his purpose.

"A good one is worthy of the heart, worthy of the ...... There are still important things to do, so let's leave for the time being! ”

Xuanyuan Jing was halfway through his words, but suddenly saw a faint smoke in the northwest direction of the city, and there was a faint smoke of fire.

When the other two saw him leave, they immediately followed.

The night is as thick as ink, and although there are lanterns on the streets, they only illuminate a small world.

Xuanyuan Jing and his party quickly disappeared into the thick night.

Seeing that they were gone, Jiang Chuge secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the errand officer beside him sat straight on the ground, patting his chest with his hand, relieved: "Ouch, hey, I'm scared to death~"

Jiang Chuge glanced at him, didn't say a word, and walked straight towards the prison of the Criminal Division.

Seeing her like this, the errand was afraid that Jiang Chuge would really let him go home to farm, so he hurriedly got up from the ground and followed up.

This time everything went well, and the two soon arrived outside the prison of the Criminal Division.

At this time, the inside and outside of the prison were brightly lit, and the ground was stained with blood.

Soldiers patrolling the city were constantly carrying out wounded jailers on stretchers, some of whose wounds had been simply bandaged.

Some were carried out and bandaged by doctors outside the prison who had been recruited in the middle of the night.

Seeing Jiang Chuge coming, the cell boss hurriedly stepped forward holding his bandaged left arm: "Lord Jiang, around Mohai, nearly twenty black-clothed assassins broke into the prison to assassinate, and the brothers were more or less injured, two of them were seriously injured, fortunately, the treatment was timely and they are out of danger, but the prisoner Liu Hu was hit by a highly poisonous arrow...... Died instantly. The small ones are ineffective, and they ask the adults to punish them. ”

After pacifying the cell leader, Jiang Chuge quickly entered the prison.

The tables, chairs, and wooden stools that were knocked over and shattered, the lamp plates that fell from the walls, and the various weapons that fell all over the ground, mixed with the tea that spilled after the teapot was broken and the red blood that exuded a fishy smell, crashed into Jiang Chuge's eyes.

The body of the Assassin has been removed, and only Liu Hu's body is still in the cell where he was held.

Jiang Chuge stepped over and looked at Liu Hu lying on the surface of the prison through the prison door, his face was bruised and swollen, and his skin and nails were black, and his mood was complicated for a while.

If it weren't for her plan, with the credit of the report, Liu Hu would have been pardoned and saved his life.

But now......

Jiang Chuge closed his eyes, when he was in Yongzhou, the reason why Shang Ji chose to slaughter the villagers of Yanjia Village was to keep her.

She had already happened once that she didn't kill Beren, but Beren died because of her, so why should there be a second time?

Could this be the so-called extraterrestrial visitor, defusing the disaster?

She's not saving people at all, she's hurting people!

Liu Hu's death completely stimulated the negative emotions that Jiang Chuge had been accumulating in his heart.

She staggered back a few steps, leaned against the cell door behind her, and stared at Liu Hu's body in the opposite cell in a daze.

The hand in the sleeve tightened slowly, and her nails pierced her palm, but she didn't seem to feel it, only a layer of crystal in her eyes.

She really hates herself like this, since she is not completely sure, why should she take risks and harm people's lives?

After the three secret guards sent by Qin Ying learned that the mission had failed, they rushed to Jinxiu Lane as soon as possible, but learned that Jiang Chuge had set off for the prison of the Criminal Division.

He breathed slightly, his heart sank suddenly, he stepped forward in three steps and two steps, put his hand on her shoulder, gently hugged her into his arms, gently caressed her back, and patiently comforted: "Chu'er, everything now is caused by the greed and delusion of Liu Hu and those officials, everything has long been doomed, and it is not your fault." Don't blame yourself, don't feel bad, okay? ”

The low and gentle voice came into his ears, and his snort was full of his clear breath, Jiang Chuge closed his eyes and did not answer.

At this moment, only Qin Ying's embrace could give her a temporary peace of mind.

However, this calm did not last long when it was interrupted by the sound of hurried footsteps.

Jiang Chuge hurriedly withdrew from Qin Ying's arms, and saw a soldier in armor bypassing the corner of the cell, appearing in front of the two of them, bending down and arching his hand: "Lord Yi, Jiang Ti is sentenced, there is a fire in the mansion of Lou Song, the Ministry of Works, and the city patrol guards went to extinguish the fire, but found that nearly 100 people, including the servants, were all killed by people who cut their throats with sharp blades......"

This man was a soldier of the City Patrol Guard, and was slightly embarrassed because of his participation in the firefighting operation.

He and the other two went to the Criminal Division, the Imperial Capital Yamen, and the Criminal Department to report the matter.

However, when he passed by here on the way to the Punishment Division, he heard that Jiang Ti and King Yi were here, so he came to report it.

"Are there any clues left by the murderer at the scene?"

Qin Ying asked in a deep voice.

"No, the murderer's methods are simple and neat, all of them are killed with a single knife, and most of the victims were killed in their sleep."

The soldier replied awe-inspiringly.

Hearing this, Qin Yingjian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a cold dark light crossed his eyes.

The Assassins broke into the prison of the Punishment Division, but Lou Song's family was wiped out.

In such a situation, Qin Yilin must have acted.

It's just that in the eyes of others, Lou Song is a member of the prince's family, why did Qin Yilin want to destroy his family?

Before he could figure out an answer, Wang Zhi, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, came with the other two soldiers of the city patrol guard.

"Lord Wang, the lower officials have received news that there is a ......fire in the mansion of the Ministry of Works, Shangshu Lou Song, Hanlin Bachelor Gu Yihua, Qin Yu, the head of the Household Department, Yan Jun, the left waiter, Qian Wei, the right waiter, and Han Xiao, the commander of the forbidden army, all have fires."

Wang Zhi was covered with sweat, his voice was solemn, and after a few deep breaths, Fang mustered up the courage to say the next words: "And when the city patrol guards arrived, except for the four guards in the Han Command, the rest of the mansions were all slaughtered without exception!" ”

At the foot of the Son of Heaven in the city of Didu, the mansions of five court officials were washed in blood overnight, and if the number of victims was combined, there would be no less than 400 people.

This case will definitely become the most shocking case since the establishment of the country in the Eastern Qing Dynasty!

Qin Ying was furious in his heart, his dark and deep eyes were surging with infinite killing intent, his fists were clenched, and there were hidden green tendons on his forehead.

He had already guessed Qin Yilin's purpose for doing this!

"Wang Zhi, you immediately go to the Criminal Department, gather the officials of the Criminal Department, and go to each prefecture to investigate and collect evidence."

After contemplating and weighing for a while, Qin Ying gave an order to Wang Zhi.

"Yes!"

Knowing that the situation was serious, and King Yi must have more important things to do, Wang Zhi responded to the order and rushed back to the criminal department as soon as possible.

At the same time, Qin Ying took off the jade jue on his waist and turned his gaze to the three soldiers of the patrol guard: "The three of you hold this jade jue, rush back to the patrol camp as soon as possible, and inform Wang Duwei to immediately increase the patrol in the city, if there is any abnormality, you must report it to the king or the prince as soon as possible." ”

As he spoke, he handed Yu Jue to the older soldier of the three.

Although the highest official of the patrol camp is Han Xiao, Han Xiao is on duty in the palace tonight, and the patrol camp should be in charge of Wang Jing, a lieutenant who is one level lower than him.

Wang Jing is a Geng Jie, he only does things and does not look at people, and under the measurement, he will definitely do what he says.

"Yes!"

The three of them responded in unison and quickly retreated.

Everyone left, and the Qin film and television line fell on Jiang Chuge again: "Tonight's incident, you and I will enter the palace together to report to your father." ”

"Hmm."

Although Jiang Chuge didn't think as much as Qin Ying thought, he didn't know that this matter would have an adverse effect on Qin Ying.

Even if he didn't take the initiative to bring her into the palace, she would ask to go with him on the grounds that Liu Hu's assassination needed to be reported.

Fires broke out one after another in the city, and the sky-high flames reflected half of the sky.

Emperor Qin Chenglang, who lived in the Chengtian Palace, and Qin Yichen, the crown prince in the East Palace, all learned the news from the palace people and sent people to investigate.

When Qin Ying and Jiang Chuge entered the palace, they already knew about it.

The imperial study was lit up in the middle of the night, and Qin Chenglang sat behind the wide desk, his brows furrowed into a Sichuan character on his face, and his face was full of anger.

Qin Yichen stood in front of the desk, his face was also ugly, and his whole person's breath was low.

"Hmm."

Hearing Chen Yong's words, Qin Chenglang closed his eyes, leaned back in the seat, rubbed his eyebrows with one hand, and made a nasal voice extremely tired.

Chen Yongfu blessed his body, and quickly left the study to pass the word.

After half the incense, Chen Yong personally led Qin Ying and Jiang Chuge into the imperial study.

As soon as he stepped into the room, Jiang Chuge felt the condensation factor in the air, and his heart couldn't help but sink.

She followed the rhythm of Qin Ying and saluted the emperor behind the desk and the prince standing on the front left side of the desk.

Then, Qin Ying's low and condensed voice sounded in the study: "The son knows that my father must be full of anger and doubts about what happened in the Didu City tonight, so he has come to report it......"

Qin Ying raised his head calmly and calmly, and looked at the emperor's serious and slightly questioning eyes after the case on the table, and did not hesitate: "The mansions of six court officials, including Shangshu Lou Song of the Ministry of Industry, were attacked by killers, five of which were destroyed, and only the mansion of Han Xiaozhi, the commander of the forbidden army closest to the patrol camp, survived. ”
