Chapter 141: The Commander Dies
However, before Kou Shu and Song Jinyan returned to the summer resort, a news that no one expected suddenly came, and neither of them thought of it.
In the imperial study, I saw Song Jinyan sitting on top of the study with a calm face, his face was so gloomy that he could almost drip water. Lanling Kingdom was destroyed by the Su family army led by Su Dongming many years ago, and now Su Dongming's physical condition is not as good as before, and he has lost the sharpness of his youth, so he has already returned to Dadu to be responsible for dispatching and patrolling the palace.
A few years ago, Su Dongming's old injury recurred, and the original position of commander was given to Su Dongming's eldest son, Su Jingzhi.
But early this morning, there was news that Su Jingzhi was killed, not only that, Su Jingzhi's death was extremely terrifying, his eyes and ears were gouged out, and ten fingers were cut off, and there were hundreds of wounds of different depths on his body.
Although Yan Yi is a person who practices martial arts, he is used to seeing swords and guns without eyes, but it is also the first time he has seen such a terrifying scene. opened his mouth and said: "Master, look, do you want Yan Yi to tell Dali Temple about the things found first, so as to assist Marble in handling the case?" ”
"The death of Commander Su, don't let Dali Temple go to investigate," Song Jinyan opened his mouth and said lightly: "Dali Temple has always paid attention to the process of handling cases, if you first let you do an autopsy, and then go through the files for investigation, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the day when the matter will come to light." ”
"Tuk-tuk—" There was a knock at the door.
"Please come in."
I saw that everyone was tall and big, with a long knife tied around his waist, and a beard on his face, this appearance was obviously incompatible with the good Su Jin official robe on his body.
The man stepped forward, saw Song Jinyan, clasped his fists with both hands and said: "The last general, Bai Yao, I have seen the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." ”
Song Jinyan nodded, his face immediately became more serious and solemn, and he nodded: "Vice General Bai," After a pause, Song Jinyan continued to speak: "Why is it that I came to you, Vice General Bai understands it." ”
Bai Yao nodded, showing an enlightened expression, the news of Su Jingzhi's tragic death suddenly came last night, and the emperor hurriedly came back from the summer resort and summoned him directly in the imperial study.
Bai Yao was upright, clenched his fists and replied: "It's because of the tragic death of Commander Su." ”
"Not only that," Song Jinyan frowned: "From today on, Vice General Bai will replace Commander Su and assume the position of Commander Su in the palace, and find out the murder of Commander Su." ”
"Yes!" If ordinary people learn that they have been promoted, they must be very happy, but Bai Yao has a completely different idea, but because he was ordered to investigate Bai Yao's victimization, he secretly rubbed his hands and was eager to try: "The last general will definitely live up to expectations and find out the truth of this matter." Bai Yao hugged his fists.
After chatting for a few more words, Bai Yao withdrew.
Looking at Bai Yao's departing back, Yan Yi slowly came down from the beam, bowed his head and said, "Master-"
"Huh? What's the matter? Song Jinyan frowned.
Yan Yi was puzzled: "Why do you still have to investigate this matter?" Isn't it obvious that General Su destroyed the Lanling Kingdom at the beginning, and now it is the people of the Lanling Kingdom who come to seek revenge, so they will attack the beloved son of the Su family? ”
Song Jinyan raised his eyebrows, did not answer Yan Yi, looked at his front with a smile and said, "Yan Yi, do you know that there are many things that you look like this, but in fact they are not. The truth of the matter is sometimes beyond your expectations. ”
"But—"
"Just like this matter, although it seems to you that the cause and effect of the matter are so clear at a glance, don't you think it's strange?" Song Jinyan's eyes flashed with a scorching light, and it seemed that a different kind of flame was jumping: "We just found out that there is Lanling Kingdom in the palace, and the eldest son of the Su family who participated in the battle with Lanling Kingdom over there died so tragically. ”
"The more plausible things are, the more they deserve careful consideration." Song Jinyan's voice was like a bright light in the night, and one sentence broke through the current quagmire.
"Now in the market, everyone is saying that it is the people of Lanling who have come back and come to seek revenge, which is why they are so ruthless to the Su commander," Yan Yi opened his mouth and continued: "If this is the case, according to your master, it is true that everything came too coincidentally, and it has only happened for a few hours, and the people have already spread the rumors. ”
Song Jinyan smiled and nodded approvingly, Yan Yi's understanding was not too bad after all: "If you have the opportunity, you can go and find out where the source of these rumors is, if I guess correctly, I'm afraid it will have nothing to do with the people behind the scenes." ”
Yan Yi's expression tightened, nodded and said, "In a while, Yan Yi will arrange for someone to go and investigate." ”
Song Jinyan waved his hand and motioned for Yan to go. I suddenly remembered Kou Shu, and I suddenly heard the news when I was enjoying the lotus with the queen last night, so the queen went back to the summer resort alone, and I don't know what the queen is doing now. Song Jinyan suddenly wanted to know what Kou Shu would think of this matter if she was by her side.
In the summer resort, Kou Shu heard the news of Su Jingzhi, and really came to the same judgment as Song Jinyan.
"This matter must be a smoke bomb released by the person behind it-" Kou Shu hit the nail on the head: "I'm afraid that Su Jingzhi just died in vain." ”
"But, Niangniang......" Mandarin Duck was puzzled, and wanted to say something, but Kou Shu continued to speak: "Who will investigate this matter?" ”
The mandarin duck was stunned for a moment and replied, "I heard that it is Deputy General Bai Yaobai." No," the mandarin duck said, "It should be Commander Bai now." ”
Kou Shu nodded and continued: "Yuan Yun, you want to find a way to make some movement and lead Bai Yao to Concubine Nalan, if you can, try to find a way to lead Shuangying to Shuangying." ”
Yuan Yun should claim to be.
"Twin Sakura?" The mandarin duck was puzzled: "Niangniang is suspicious, is this incident done by Shuangying?" ”
Kou Shu shook her head, nodded again, and said, "This palace only faintly has a suspicion, if it is really not, if you check Lan Ruoxuan, you can also find out something else." ”
"Slave and maid, let's do it." Yuan Yun nodded, pushed the door and walked out the door.
Yuan Yun pushed the door out, his body paused slightly, as if he suddenly remembered something, and turned his head to Kou Shu and said, "By the way, Niangniang, my brother has sent news that he and Yan Yi have now found out where the Tianji Box is, and they will be back soon." ”
Kou Shu nodded, he already knew what was inside the Heavenly Machine Box, and now that the border was turbulent, if the Heavenly Machine Box fell into the hands of the enemy country, the consequences would be unimaginable. I don't know why, Kou Shu always faintly felt that when Yuan Ming opened the Heavenly Machine Box, many things would come to light.
