Chapter 48: Nine Emperors

As he spoke, the guard took out a dove from his body: "Your Excellency, please take a look." ”

"What is this?" Zhao Wei looked at the guard.

"This is the flying pigeon biography I just received!"

Looking at this carrier pigeon, Zhao Wei panicked, and dotted a red spot on the lower right of his left foot, which is a unique symbol of Zheng Feng's carrier pigeon, and the pigeon's head is also painted red, which means urgent!

Zheng Feng is the head of the Zheng family, one of the four major families, and Zhao Wei also married his sister Zheng Liu, Zheng Liu is Zhao Tian's stepmother Zheng, and the Zhao and Zheng families can be described as a relationship of one and one loss.

Zhao Wei quickly opened the envelope and looked at the meaning inside:

Zheng Feng had always had a personal relationship with Ling Xi before, and the mission sent to Ling Xi half a month ago has now been completely unheard, and recently Ling Xi has carried out a lot of hostile acts against Da Jiang, and the handwriting behind it is very sloppy, and Zhao Wei can't distinguish it, and he didn't even have time to write the final signature.

Seeing this, Zhao Wei sighed deeply, and immediately said to his personal guard: "Ma Le! Come here, you quickly return to Beijing and investigate the situation of Zheng Feng and Lord Zheng! ”

At this moment, there was a commotion at the door of the mansion.

"What's wrong!" Zhao Wei looked at the door.

"Report! My lord, a group of Lingxi people appeared at the door! A servant immediately came to report.

"Lingxi people!?" Zhao Weimen's head was slightly puzzled: "Go!" Go with me and take a look. ”

Walking to the door of the mansion, a gorgeously dressed Lingxi nobleman came into view, he combed the pigtails characteristic of the Lingxi people, his face was angular and cold, and when he saw Zhao Tian: "Hello!" ”

As soon as he saw Zhao Tian, he waved his hand to greet Zhao Tian.

Zhao Qian looked at him, why was he so familiar, and suddenly remembered: "Jiuyu!?" ”

Zhao Wei looked at Zhao Tian and Jiu Yu, and a strange expression appeared on his face: "You guys, I know!?" ”

"Oh! Oh! Jiu Yu looked at Zhao Wei: "I am ordering the Prince of the Xi Clan, Jiu Yu." ”

As soon as he heard the Lingxi clan, Zhao Wei began to darken his face, looked at Jiu Yu unfriendly, and his tone became heavier: "I don't know, what's the matter with the prince!" ”

Jiu Yu saw that Zhao Wei's face was a little wrong, and immediately smiled: "This king came to see the scenery of this big ginger, he happened to be tired, and he wanted to rest in your mansion." ”

At this moment, the prefect heard the voice: "This makes the people of Xi can't stay!" Taihang Dati is their ghost! I don't know what tricks I'm going to play this time. ”

"Someone! Boom away!" The prefect was ready to blast them away.

Zhao Wei stopped with one hand: "No!" Arrange for them to rest! ”

"Your Excellency!" The prefect looked at Zhao Wei with an embarrassed expression: "I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate......."

Zhao Wei turned his head and glared at the prefect, and the prefect immediately understood: "This is going to be arranged, this is going to ......"

It is not unreasonable for Zhao Wei to do this, although Ling Xi is still engaging in some hostile activities with Da Jiang, but after all, there is no direct conflict on the front, and it would be rude to directly blow away a prince of the Ling Xi clan in this way.

And this prince came to visit, did not choose the capital, came directly to Taihang, I am afraid that he has to use some hands, as the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place, if he is blown away, he wants to make some small moves Zhao Wei can't investigate, keep him by his side, many things he can't be so convenient!

"Someone!" Zhao Wei immediately called his own people and quietly ordered him to keep an eye on this Prince Lingxi.

"Daddy! Have we forgotten something!? Zhao Qian looked at Zhao Wei.

Zhao Wei slapped his thigh, and then remembered that he was here to investigate the case, and looked at the prefect: "Take me to the autopsy quickly!" ”

As soon as I arrived at the door of the autopsy room of this official mansion, I felt chilling, there were a few pieces of white cloth hanging at the door in front of the door, and when I lifted the white cloth, I felt a chill coming, and I always felt that it was gloomy inside!

"My lord! Check it out! The prefect pointed to the humanoid objects on the bed in front of him, covered with a white cloth and a slight stench.

The prefect pointed to the subordinates next to him and lifted the white cloth, and first a foul smell came out! It smells worse than the water in the sewer, and the pungent smell makes people sick to their stomachs and almost vomits it to the people around them.

Seeing this, the official next to him immediately issued a mask to everyone.

"Dumping! Why don't you go out first......" Zhao Wei considered that Zhao Tian was still his daughter's family, after all, he had never seen these, and he was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable when she saw it.

"It's fine!" Zhao Tian nodded.

On the other side, the white cloth was lifted, and everyone present was shocked, and the prefect directly covered his stomach and vomited! On the contrary, Zhao Tian was calmer than he was, and his face was calm, as if he hadn't seen anything.

She has studied medicine for many years and has a lot of clinical experience, Zhao Wei was a little shocked when she saw Zhao Tian so fine.

And these corpses were also very cruel, and the thick smell of flies and maggots began to slowly spread, and many white fly maggots rubbed on the corpses, as if tens of thousands of them were intersecting together. The corpse's bloodshot eyes and mouth were wide open, as if it had suffered great pain before death, and its messy hair was mixed with bloody soil, making it look unusually desolate.

Presumably, these corpses have been dead for half a month, and the prefect has only come to find someone to perform an autopsy now, which can be described as extremely pedantic.

Carefully observing the clothing of these corpses, there is a sense of luxury, although they are not nobles, but these people will at least not be commoners.

And there is a striking resemblance to these corpse capitals! is a fatal scar caused by a sharp weapon on his chest, Zhao Tian's face changed slightly, this method is cruel! Murderers have no humanity at all!

Zhao Wei looked at these corpses and pursed his beard, how could these people be so familiar, as if they had seen them somewhere.

Just as Zhao Wei was looking at the corpse in a daze, there was a quarrel at the door.

"You can't go in! Adults are working inside! A servant grabbed Jiu Yu.

"You, you, do you know who he is!? Dare to stop it. The guards of the Nine Emperors dragged the official away.

Zhao Wei immediately lifted the white curtain and took a look outside.

"I don't know what's wrong with the prince!" Zhao Wei looked at Jiu Yu expressionlessly.

"Oh!" Jiu Yu deliberately pretended to be nothing: "I'm bored, come out and go around, why don't you let this king in!" ”

The official was about to refute Jiuyu's words, but Zhao Wei also saw it: "Hehe! Why should the prince play in the palace! The place is small, and it can't be used. ”

"Someone's coming!" Zhao Wei called to the attendants next to him: "Take His Royal Highness the Prince and go outside." ”

"Alas! Where, where, Lord Zhao is polite, don't bother, don't bother. Jiu Yu hurriedly shook his hand: "It's good for me to go around this mansion by myself." ”

"Huh!? What a line! Since it's too much. Zhao Wei pulled Zhao Tian: "Don't dislike it, let the little girl accompany His Royal Highness the Prince for a walk." ”

Zhao Wei said as he gave Zhao Qian a look.

In fact, Zhao Wei is now thinking about opening up Jiuyu so that he can continue the autopsy, but he will definitely not be able to conduct the autopsy.

"That's right! Royal brother, why don't you go around with the little girl, it's too fun! Zhao Qian looked at Jiuyu with a serious face.

"Hehe, I'm afraid it's not good! I'm a little tired right now and I don't want to go! ”

Jiuyu just doesn't leave with a dead face! looked like what you could do, Zhao Wei was also very helpless。。。。。。

"My lord! Clue found. Suddenly, the prefect took a token, covered his mouth, and ran out in a hurry.

The token is full of mud and dust, and there is a fishy smell that cannot be dissipated, probably soaked in water for a long time, and a big Zheng character is engraved on the front of the token, and the back of the token is a unique mark of the Great Jiang Dynasty.

"Your Excellency, please take a look, this is found from the deceased." The prefect put his hands on it and walked towards Zhao Wei with a low face.

Jiu Yu snatched it away: "Something, borrow me to play!" ”

"Nonsense!" Zhao Wei slapped the table: "I respect you as the prince of Lingxi, so I treat you politely!" If you are so disrespectful to us, then I will not have any courtesy with you! ”

"Don't! Lord Zhao, I know that I am wrong. Jiu Yumiao changed his face seriously: "Actually, I came here this time for one thing." ”

"I came this time to represent the sincerity of Lingxi, I heard that there are many corpses in the Taihang River, and the evidence points to our Lingxi clan, which is simply someone slandering us." Jiu Yu clasped his fists and said to Zhao Wei, "Da Jiang has been friends with Ling Xi for several years, how could he come to innocently offend?" There must be other originals among them, and I ask Lord Zhao to investigate carefully to see who is going to destroy the relationship between our clan and Da Jiang. "

This idiot, it is useless at a critical time, Zhao Wei glanced at the prefect, the Zhao family and the Zheng family are in-laws, and the two families support each other to grow stronger and stronger, and this Zheng family's token suddenly came out here It is not good for the Zheng family, but it has great disadvantages, and the relationship between the Zhao family and the Zheng family will inevitably not be considered an accomplice. I don't know if the prefect deliberately took out the token, and it's not easy to hide it in front of everyone's eyes. And this matter was done by Ling Xi, Zhao Wei couldn't believe it, these evidences were too simple, Ling Xi people were not so stupid, and such obvious evidence could be left. And these evidences cannot simply accuse the Lingxi tribe, and the evidence is insufficient. There is no way, the only way to do this now is to question Jiuyu, hoping that he can find evidence to find the person who planned all this behind the scenes.

"Don't you even want to quibble?" Zhao Weidao snatched the token from Jiu Yu's hand, held it in front of his eyes, and handed it to his eyes, "Open your eyes and see, this token is familiar, when Da Jiang and Lingxi had a quarrel, it was the Zhao family who tried their best to make peace, so that my Da Jiang's army retreated from Lingxi." "

"And the matter of the river embankment last time, although the person hid it well, but I can still vaguely see that it is you Lingxi people. It must be done jointly by you and the Zheng family, what else is there to quibble. It seems that you have been united for a long time, if it weren't for the revelation of the Taihang Lake incident this time, I don't know what you could have conspired to do?" Zhao Wei's eyes were staring at Jiu Yu, but he was silently observing the movements around him, to see if there were any spies from the people behind the scenes.

"What embankment?" Jiu Yu wondered. Is there anything else he hasn't found out, what happened during this time, who can't get along with Lingxi, and maliciously provokes contradictions between the two countries. Emperor Jiang is incompetent and easily provoked, so it seems that he has to call someone to investigate.

"Someone, get him arrested." At this time, the prefect of Taihang suddenly appeared and said. Then he said to Zhao Wei, "Lord Zhao, what do you have to say to him, just lock him up and torture him and interrogate him carefully." "

Under the eyes of everyone, Zhao Wei couldn't say that he had released Jiu Yu.

"No," Zhao Tian said at this time, "I don't believe that Jiuyu is that kind of person, and now that the evidence is insufficient, how can you arrest people casually." "Jiu Yu is such a good person, how can he do such a thing, no matter what, she wants to help Jiu Yu. She didn't believe that Jiuyu could get any benefit from falling into the hands of this prefect. The doctor is benevolent, although she can make everyone happy, but the young man in front of her, looking harmless, she can't let him enter the fire pit.

"No way?" The prefect said in a long accent deliberately in a confused accent. He glanced at Zhao Wei, "Could it be that you and this Lingxi people, um~ Lingxi nobles are in a group, or are they accomplices?".

"You're just talking gibberish," Zhao said.

"Isn't what I said right, you are the eldest lady, but don't be in the company of the kind of person who kills people's lives by cruel means" The prefect looked serious, and Zhao Qian was very angry when he saw it.

"Anyway, you ......," Zhao Tian was interrupted by Zhao Wei before he could finish speaking.

"Okay," Zhao Wei grabbed Zhao Tian and shook his head.

Zhao Tian understood at this moment that it was useless to talk to the prefect in front of everyone's eyes, and it seemed that he could only find another way.

"Arrest it, put it in prison, and keep it under strict guard," the prefect said to the official on the side, "Do you hear that?" "

"Yes, yes, yes," the official hurriedly acted.
