Xu Heng also knew what Ye Bufan meant when he heard this, and he also felt the coldness of the murderous intent from the other party's expression.

He suddenly showed a slightly exaggerated look of panic, and shouted: "Uncle Guo, don't you think that I have no life to calculate you, and think that our assassination of Su Zhuo is just a cover, and the real purpose is to assassinate your Ye family patriarch and Miss Ye?"

Ye Bufan didn't speak, just looked at him coldly.

Although this shopkeeper of the Drunken Rain Building is now working for the Yonghui Imperial Court, he is still a person who has no life, and it is not impossible to do this kind of thing.

Xu Heng saw that Ye Bufan didn't respond, so he rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Uncle Guo, look, I'm here in the drunken rain building now, if this unauthentic thing is really done by me, do you think I dare to sit here so swaggeringly, how far has it already gone?

Ye Bufan said: "How can I trust you?"

Xu Heng said: "You see, I am just a little shopkeeper in the realm of thoughts, a small character in the Wushengmen, it is already very difficult to invite Mr. Zhou, where can I find a master who can assassinate the old patriarch and eldest lady of your Ye family?"

He then said: "And I don't have a reason to kill your Ye family patriarch at the moment, let alone Miss Ye Luan, she will become the queen of Yonghui in the future, and she has nothing to do with our Wushengmen, or is Uncle Guo really a madman who wants to kill people when we don't have a life, or is Uncle Guo really a madman who wants to kill people when we want to kill people?"

Ye Bufan squinted slightly.

Xu Heng was very single, spread his hands, and said: "If you don't believe it, you can kill me directly now, anyway, for you, it's a matter of moving your fingers." ”

Ye Bufan looked at him uncertainly for a while, and finally didn't make a move, and said, "You still have one last chance." ”

Xu Heng's words reminded Ye Bufan.

If it was just the death of a Ye family patriarch, then it would not be too much of a problem to suspect the firstborn of the Wushengmen, but there was also a Ye Luan among the people who died on the spot, even if it was explained by killing people and killing people, it was a bit far-fetched, after all, Ye Luan was also abused by assassins before he died, if this thing was really done by someone from Wushengmen, it would be redundant.

Killing is the goal, and there are many ways to kill a person.

Obviously, torture is the most complex of all.

The meaning of torture is torture, and wanting to torture means that you need to invest more time in this assassination, not to mention the assassination on a heavily guarded ship, which will undoubtedly increase the risk.

And the murderer seems to have tortured and killed Ye Luan in front of the old patriarch of the Ye family.

This assassination is more like a revenge.

He felt like he might be missing something.

Xu Heng saw that this Uncle Guo finally lost his breath, and said with a smile: "Uncle Guo, I can guarantee that this thing will not be done by our lifeless people, instead of coming to me for bad luck, you should think about whether the Ye family has formed any feuds before." ”

Ye Bufan took a deep look at him, turned around and left.

Xu Heng supported his chin with the back of his hand, and after watching this uncle leave with a smile, his face showed a little weirdness, and he said to himself: "Ye Chen is actually dead, Yonghui is going to change the sky?"

......

......

Ye Bufan did not give up tracking down the true identity of the assassin, and he also found a breakthrough.

That was the Assassin's strange and unique method of killing.

A sword slashes the head, but it doesn't spill blood.

No sound came out.

This assassin should have the ability to dissolve the qi.

It's not something that an idle monk can do.

If this incident was really committed by an enemy who had a feud with the Ye family, then it would definitely be recorded in the file of the Ye family, and if he traced it down like this, it was very likely that he would find out the identity of the other party.

And after coming back to his senses, he also found some "interesting" things.

The clues that gave him a trail were likely the clues that the Assassins had deliberately left behind.

Ye Bufan rummaged through all the case files left by the Ye family on the Xuanqing Pavilion, and finally found the relevant records.

Although they are only a few words, there are indeed descriptions of such an incredible exercise.

Kill in a silent place, and the sword does not splash blood.

Although he did not mention the name of the exercise, he could sense the writer's fear and fear of the exercise.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and whispered to himself, "It's getting more and more interesting." ”

In fact, the Ye family did not put all the files in the Xuanqing Pavilion, and there were quite a few extremely secret case files hidden in the Chengqian Building in the north of the Xuanqing Pavilion, since ancient times, only the patriarch of the Ye family was qualified to enter, and now Ye Chen was assassinated and died, and the Ye family was leaderless for a while. Although there is a saying that there is a special case, before the old and the new take over, Ye Bufan will still have a lot of trouble if he wants to enter the Chengqian Building.

Ye Bufan didn't want to be so troublesome.

So he didn't go to Chengqianlou, but prepared to go to the imperial city.

He knew, and the emperor must know something.

......

......

The day after Ning Yuchen's crown ceremony, the news that Ye Chen, the head of the Ye family, and Ye Luan, the young lady of the Ye family, were assassinated on their own boat, shocked the whole Lingjiang River, especially those who were familiar with the status of the Ye family in the Yonghui Dynasty, when they heard the news, their hearts were shocked, and the death of Ye Chen was second only to the death of His Majesty today.

Although the Ye family has not made any statement so far, such a thing, not expressing a statement is a statement in itself.

It is said that there is no wind and no waves, and if there is no evidence for such a thing, no one dares to spread it.

Zhang Xingyuan came to the Changle Marquis Mansion today, and told Su Zhuo the news by the way.

After Su Zhuo heard the news, he couldn't help but be moved.

He didn't expect that Ye Chen, who had been sitting in the position of the patriarch of the Ye family for more than thirty years, would die at this time.

And what he didn't expect was that the time when Ye Chen was assassinated was the same day as his assassination in Ningfu.

He couldn't help but start thinking - what is the connection between his assassination and Ye Chen's assassination?

Su Zhuo's eyes lit up.

He felt as if he had caught something, but the most crucial thing was running through his fingers.

Yuan Shixu thought for a while, and said softly: "Young Marquis, do you think it will also be a monk from the Wushengmen who can do it?"

Su Zhuo glanced at him and quickly understood what he meant.

If this matter is related to Wushengmen, and Ye Chen happens to go out on this day, then it means that he was assassinated in Ningfu, and it may have something to do with the Ye family, but the Ye family was calculated by Wushengmen, and the assassination of himself was just a false shot, and the real purpose of Wushengmen was Ye Chen and Ye Luan.

It didn't make sense to speculate, but he always felt that something was wrong.

Zhang Xingyuan didn't think as much as Su Zhuo thought, he just frowned, and said on the matter: "This doesn't make sense, at least on the surface, Wushengmen doesn't have any reason to kill the old patriarch or eldest lady of the Ye family." ”

Su Zhuo pondered for a while, then suddenly looked at Zhang Xingyuan, and said, "Brother Zhang, I'm going to go to the Dao Palace tomorrow to meet the national teacher, and when you go back, help me inform the national teacher." ”

Zhang Xingyuan was a little stunned and said, "National teacher?"

Su Zhuo nodded and said softly, "Yes, he is the national teacher." ”

There are three things he has to do when he returns to Lingjiang, and this third thing is related to the Ye family and the old patriarch of the Ye family.

He knew that the Ye family was involved in the death of the eldest princess, and now that he returned to Lingjiang, he also had the purpose of collecting debts from the old patriarch, but he didn't expect that before he could do anything, someone had already killed Ye Chen first.

He felt that someone should know something.

This person is the national teacher Zhao Ji.
