Chapter Eighty-Five: Forcing Out the Murderer
On the day of the funeral of the old lady of Wuhou Mansion, Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong also went.
Qiao Man's whole body has lost weight. The patriarch of the Wu family took the clansmen to bury the old lady.
All six ministries of the imperial court sent officials to attend the funeral. Lu Nan was also in the queue.
On the way back, Qiao Man told Luo Feng that as long as he could solve the case and comfort her grandmother in the spirit of heaven, she would be grateful.
After Qiao Man got into the car, Lu Nan came to Luo Feng's side and said, "Luo Shaoxia, so blessed!" ”
"Lu Shaoyin can gain anything?" Luo Feng's topic turned to the case.
"No progress! What about you? Lu Nan and Luo Feng walked side by side. Gu Xiaodong went up to the tree to catch birds.
"I'm going to enter the palace to meet the queen of heaven! Is Lu Shaoyin willing to go along? Luo Feng asked.
"Now that you've spoken, can I not go?" Lu Nan actually wanted to hear what Luo Feng had to say to the queen of heaven?
Luo Feng and the three of them entered the palace. Gonggong Xu asked them to stay in the side hall later.
After a stick of incense, Gonggong Xu took the three of them to the imperial study.
Gu Xiaodong didn't go in, he waited outside the imperial study. Luo Feng and Lu Nan stood aside when they saw Li.
"Say it!" The queen took a sip of tea.
"Please order the queen of heaven to behead the thirteen prisoners in the prison at noon tomorrow!" Luo Feng bowed his hand and said.
The queen of heaven's hands shook as she put down the teacup, and the lid of the teacup made a slight noise.
Lu Nan looked at Luo Feng in surprise, he hadn't figured out the situation yet. What kind of medicine is sold in this Luofeng gourd?
"Why?" The diva's shock was palpable.
"Find out the real culprit!" Luo Feng said bluntly.
At this time, the Queen of Heaven and Lu Nan understood Luo Feng's intentions.
"Spread the Queen's Decree! Tomorrow at noon, the thirteen criminals who attempted to assassinate will be beheaded ......" Xu Gonggong's voice spread far and wide.
Notices have also been posted outside the official offices in the capital, and this matter has been spread all over the streets and alleys.
The girls and mothers-in-law in the prince's mansion also talked about it. The prince asked his personal guard what had happened, and his personal guard told him about it.
When the prince heard this, he walked up and down the house worriedly. The crown princess entered the house and said, "Maybe that's a good thing!" ”
"But Zixin ......," the prince sat on the chair, picked up the teacup, and put it down again.
"I can only blame her for her thin life, and there is no blessing waiting for you!" The crown princess pretended to sigh, but her heart was tight with joy?
"There's no way to save her?" After all, the prince is benevolent, and he can't bear the Han family to die like that.
"Who dares to plead for the crime of assassinating the queen of heaven?" What the crown princess said was true.
"Then what is Luo Feng's case? Could it be that these thirteen people are all murderers? The prince's resentment was directed at Luo Feng.
"I really can't find out, this is a one-and-done method! He's going to protect himself! The crown princess was very appreciative of Luo Feng's approach.
"He's a careless disregard for human life!" The prince slapped the table angrily.
"Shhhh This is the will of the queen of heaven to meet herself, you don't want to die! The crown princess's face changed. The prince also knew that he had lost his words, so he stopped speaking.
When the people in the Tanji Pavilion saw that Luo Feng had returned, they lost their enthusiasm as before.
Gu Xiaodong didn't say a word all the way. He knew that Luo Feng must have a good intention in doing this.
Suto stopped Luo Feng halfway and asked, "What did you say to the queen of heaven?" How so? ”
"No comment!" Luo Feng pushed Su Tuo away and returned to his courtyard.
"I heard that the Queen of Heaven ordered to kill the thirteen people in the Heavenly Prison?" Qi Yan walked out of the room and asked Luo Feng.
"Yes! I am tired! Take a break first! Luo Feng entered the house.
Qi Yan watched Luo Feng go to the ear room and lie down, so she had to stop asking.
Suto went to Dongfang Xuyu's study, but saw that he was still reading the case file, so he walked over and closed the file.
"Is there something wrong?" Dongfang Xuyu picked up the teacup and looked at Suto, who was staring at him with small naked eyes.
"Surely you know!" Su Tuo wanted to see something from Dongfang Xuyu's expression!
"Know! This is a good thing for us in the Exploration Pavilion! Dongfang Xuyu took a sip of tea.
"That's thirteen lives!" Suto patted the case and angrily scolded Dongfang Xuyu.
"The holy decree of the Queen of Heaven has been issued, do you have any way to save people?" Dongfang Xuyu leaned back in his chair.
"There must be something wrong with this Luo Feng!" Suto walked around irritably in Dongfang Xuyu's study.
On the second day, Lord Hou and Gonggong Xu of the Criminal Department arrived. The commander of the forbidden army, with the forbidden army and the people of the yamen, surrounded the execution ground. Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong also came. Lu Nan secretly lurked on the periphery with the manpower of Jingzhao Mansion.
Qi Yan wore a veil and sat in a restaurant opposite the execution ground. She watched through the window at the execution ground. Luo Feng asked her to catch the murderer, because only her skills could catch her.
The sun shone brightly, and everyone on the execution ground turned pale. They learned that today was their day of death when they were taken to the execution ground.
There was a lot of talk among those who watched the execution. None of the prisoners' families were present to see them off, so who is not afraid of the diva? No one would do anything stupid with the lives of their entire clan.
Noon has arrived, and the sign has landed. The executioners raised their knives. The blade is sharp and dazzling in the sun.
Qi Yan's heart lifted, she was really worried that the murderer was not among the thirteen. She asked Luo Feng this question. Luo Feng thought for a long time before answering her, if this is the case or the murderer is willing to be killed, then these thirteen people will really be beheaded, and he will not be able to live himself!
Just as the executioner's knife fell, the chains on Han's body suddenly fell off. Father-in-law Xu shouted at this time, "Stop!" ”
The executioners' knives stopped in mid-air.
Although Han was startled, the person had already rushed out. Her body was as fast as lightning, Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong only saw it run into an alley, and when they chased after her, the person was gone.
Lu Nan led people to block the entrances and exits of several alleys. He led people to search alley by alley.
At this time, he found a woman in red lying on the ground. Lu Nan asked his men to stop, and he slowly approached the woman with his sword raised.
The woman turned her head violently, and Lu Nan's breath suffocated. Qi Yan's beautiful face appeared in front of him.
Qi Yan chased Han to this alley, and then the two fought. Han was not Qi Yan's opponent, he was hit by Qi Yan with a palm, and he was about to be captured, but who knew that a black shadow skipped by and unexpectedly slapped Qi Yan to save Han.
Qi Yan showed her original form due to internal injuries, and it happened that Lu Nan saw her face.
"You go over there and search!" Lu Nan took the sword and commanded. Those catchers are quick to take their orders and go. Lu Nan stretched out his hand to Qi Yan.
Although Qi Yan did not die after being injured internally, it was not easy to escape in front of Lu Nan. Seeing that Lu Nan had no ill intentions, she handed him her hand.
The moment Lu Nan took Qi Yan's hand, his heart beat wildly.
"Let's get out of that way!" Although Lu Nan knew that Qi Yan was not a murderer, Qi Yan was already a dead person. If she is found not dead, Tanji Pavilion and him, the young Yin who participated in the closure of the case, will be punished.
Lu Nan took Qi Yan to his other courtyard in the capital and settled it. He warned Qi Yan not to leave here, lest she be arrested. Qi Yan knew that her appearance had recovered, and she could only stay in Lu Nan's other hospital for the time being to recuperate and hide.
When Lu Nan went back to see his men and asked if they had caught the murderer, everyone shook their heads.
Lu Nan instructed no one to say anything about the fact that they had met a woman in red, otherwise don't blame him for being ruthless.
Those people usually accepted Lu Nan's benefits, and they also saw that the woman's dress and size were not the murderer, so they thought that the master secretly invited by Lu Nan was injured by the murderer. They knew that Lu Nan had a good face, so they all said that they would never say it.
Luo Feng was ordered by the queen of heaven to be imprisoned because he lost his hand. She ordered Lu Nan to continue to track down the whereabouts of the murderer.
