Han Hong's face sank, and Zhou Yi's face on the side was even more ugly, and he asked in a deep voice: "Have you asked clearly, these four water bandits were all killed by Six Gates?!" ”

People come and go," said the catcher of the six gates, these four people have done a lot of evil, and the six doors have also chased and killed them for many years. ”

"Hunt down and kill them for years and months, and still let them commit crimes?!" Zhou Yi slapped his palm on the coffee table, and the tea bowls and saucers on the table twinked. "These four people? Kill seven brocade guards, including my uncle?! How is this possible?! ”

The people below did not dare to reply. The uncle he said was the former Jinyi Guard commander Zhou Ji. Zhou Yi is Zhou Ji's nephew.

Han Hong stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Yi's shoulder, and asked again, "How many days have that gang of bandits infiltrated the Su family?" ”

"Back to my lord, for two months, those four people killed the Su family and their servants and buried them in the courtyard, because the Su family often didn't go out, no one found it strange!"

Han Hong lowered his eyes, and asked a few more questions, and the person who came reported it carefully, and when it came to the lack of a baby, Han Hong frowned, "Didn't find out the clue?" ”

Someone said no, "The Su family did knock on the door, and asked a few well-known local women, all of whom said that the Su family was reluctant to even give up this idea, and there were also ugly words, saying that the baby might have died a long time ago." However, the food delivery person said that it should not be, for a few days, the Su family asked for crucian carp, counting the time, it should be for Mrs. Su or the nurse to promote milk. But where the baby went, no one knows. ”

Han Hong listened to the news of nothing, and waved his hand to let the visitor go down to rest. When he turned around, he saw Zhou Yi's face turned blue, his hands were clutching the chair, and the rosewood armrests were creaking by him, especially in the silent room.

"Is it murder?!"

didn't say yes, didn't say no, Han Hong's eyes fell on Zhou Ji's pen and ink hanging in the hall at some point.

"The mirror hangs high."

Han Hong read word by word.

The former commander Zhou Ji died in a surprise attack by water bandits on the way to investigate the case, but in the eyes of Han Hong and Zhou Yi, Zhou Ji's death was a mystery.

In the early autumn of last year, Zhou Ji took a secret case and took six people to set off overnight, traveling in plain clothes by land and water, not wanting to be in the Weishan Lake in southwest Luxi, a group of outlaw water bandits suddenly burst out of the water, sunk the ship, killed people, and set fire to the ship. No matter how high the martial arts of Jinyiwei are, the enemy can't be taken by surprise, and the water is the territory of the water bandits, a vicious battle, Jinyiwei and his commander Zhou Ji all seven people were killed.

The incident happened in the lake, although the fire was full, but there was no rescue, and Zhou Ji and others secretly traveled, and it was a long time before the matter was transmitted to Beijing.

shocked the government and the opposition for a while.

The commander of the dignified brocade guard was killed in this way, and there was no gold and silver on the ship, and it was a murder for money on the surface. Some fishermen said that the group of bandits was not large in number, and their light skills were extremely high, and they killed people, burned the boat, and fled overnight, and when the officers and soldiers and Jinyi Wei sent people to investigate, the gang of bandits disappeared as if out of thin air, and there was no trace of them.

Zhou Ji's case has no follow-up, from the emperor in the palace to the common people, they all feel that he is unlucky, and he has this fate. But the Zhou family didn't believe it, and Han Hong didn't believe it either!

Within three years, there have been three people in the seat of the commander of the Jinyi Guard!

Yin Yong, the previous commander, returned to his hometown to guard filial piety because his parents died of illness one after another, and Zhou Ji had an accident less than a year after taking over Jinyiwei. The emperor originally wanted Yin Yong to continue to be the Jinyi guard, but he didn't want Yin Yong to suddenly get sick, and before the emperor's order arrived, the person was gone.

In such a situation, Jinyiwei, who had a special status, naturally could not rashly let others take over, so the emperor brought Han Hong, who was then the envoy of Beizhen, up.

The twenty-four-year-old commander of the Jinyi Guard, the youngest commander of the Jinyi Guard in history!

The fire of the new official took office burned to the sky, and the reputation of wanton arrogance spread all over the world. But it was such a flamboyant and domineering commander of the Jinyi Guard, and someone dared to spy on his mansion study on his wedding night!

These days, Han Hong has been wondering, who is it and why did it come from?

The female thief's swordsmanship is clear, and she is not a member of the sect; He sent someone to check the small arrow that passed the message, the system of Jiangnan; The female thief did not come to Beijing alone, and there were at least three people to help; When the female thief fought him, she only wanted to flee for her life, not kill anyone...... With this limited information, Han Hong could tell that this group of people was not his enemy, but rather a ...... Killer!

If it is a killer, it is not a killer who came to kill someone, and it is even more difficult to guess who is behind it. One thing is for sure, if the person who hired the killer did it himself, he would be exposed in front of his face, so he spared no expense to hire someone. In addition, the people who hired the killers obviously couldn't figure out something before they let people spy on them.

Unfortunately, he found out.

What's the matter? Or what does it have to do with it? Could it be related to Zhou Ji's death?

"Your Excellency." Zhou Yi suddenly got up with a solemn expression.

Han Hong glanced at it, and already understood his thoughts in his heart, Zhou Ji's affairs were naturally handled by Zhou Yi himself, he nodded, "You go." ”

Zhou Yi's face calmed a lot when he heard this, and Han Hong asked him to sit down, "You will investigate again this time." Zhou Yi nodded, and he said again, "Last time, the old fisherman, you asked people to ask him again, and someone else will look for him after me." ”

"Old fisherman?" The conversation turned too fast, and Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment.

Han Hong turned around and pulled out a dossier from the bookshelf, which contained two paper rolls.

Zhou Yi opened it and remembered it. The two overlapping paper rolls are the testimony and portrait of an old fisherman found by Han Hong when he detoured to Weishan Lake when he was investigating the case more than a month ago.

The old fisherman did not see the sight of the boat set fire to the boat, but heard someone talking in the reeds when he was collecting the cage in the ditch before.

He listened fragmentedly.

“...... Do one more vote, and you won't have to die again...... It's all promised, in the future, we will be rich people in Jiangnan, and live our lives behind closed doors! ”

Zhou Yi set his eyes on the confession, "The rich man in Jiangnan...... It's Su Quan of Zhenjiang. ”

Han Hong nodded slowly, obviously having already thought about it.

"It seems that the lives of the Su family have already been promised!" Zhou Yi sneered, his fingertips pinched the paper roll, almost crushed.

He simply took out the portrait of the old fisherman, put it in his arms, and pointed to the important confession for Han Hong to put away, "Don't let anyone see this." ”

Han Hong nodded when he heard this, something jumped in his mind, and Zhou Yi opened his mouth again, "In the past few days, I will collect the things at hand and give orders, and find a way to go south." ”

"Okay."

Han Hong responded, and then thought about the thought that flashed in Fang Cai's mind, and that thought was like the light of fireworks, flashing by, leaving nothing.
