Chapter 376: Liu Zhi's Death

"Haha, I'll see Lord Yuan's subordinates show their might later, and arrest the criminals in one fell swoop."

At this time, the eldest grandson and Yuan Chengde were so good that they seemed to have met confidants for a long time.

And Yuan Chengde, on the other side, looked at this "mysterious official" sent by Dali Temple at this time, and his feelings were doubled, if he knew that this person was so good, he would not have to be "honestly afraid" for most of the night.

"Nameless adults, don't worry, I have already made arrangements, and such a small case will be caught......"

The smile on the eldest grandson's face remained unchanged, but his eyes under the cover of the night condensed slightly when he heard Yuan Chengde say "There has been an arrangement".

"The most important thing is that I have solved the case here, and I will give an explanation to the nameless adult as soon as possible, so that the adult can go back and give an account to Lord Zhou. This Kaicheng District is really poor and there is nothing to entertain the nameless lord, and when this is the case, I will definitely treat you well in the inner service area. ”

The eldest grandson smiled and nodded.

Yuan Chengde put down the curtain and retreated to the sedan chair to rest, and fell with the heart that had been hanging in the middle of the night.

The smile on the eldest grandson's face froze at this time, and then slowly faded in the night.

"The magistrate of Kaicheng District has no idea about the district and county he has been in charge of for six years, but he knows everything about the prosperous inner service district. What a ......."

The eldest grandson mocked in his heart.

The eldest grandson walked with the sedan chair while slowly digesting the news he had just gotten in his heart.

Although this Yuan Chengde is only a small county, he was able to serve in Kaicheng District for six years......

The most important thing is that over the years, instead of dragging Kaicheng District out of the quagmire of poverty, it has fallen deeper and deeper. As the leader of the county government, he is innocent and guiltless, and he doesn't believe that he has no backer behind him and his eldest grandson is killed.

Therefore, the purpose of the conversation just now was to find out who was behind Yuan Chengde.

And after the eldest grandson's "coercion and temptation", Yuan Chengde really fell into the trap.

Clan Honor!

The nobles of the clan at that time were headed by Tang Wangye, and they faintly wanted to become a major party in the court, competing with the Wei Party and the Soviet Party at that time.

But Emperor Yaozong only used the "Autumn Hunting Bureau" to kill two birds with one stone to send Tang Wangye to the southern regions and imprison the eldest princess.

Since then, everyone in the clan has been in danger, and they have not recovered for so many years.

But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, after all, most of the people in this faction are relatives of the emperor, even if they are broken up by Emperor Yaozong, they are all "nobles" in the court that "civilian officials" dare not provoke.

Listening to Yuan Chengde's vague expression just now, the eldest grandson can analyze that the nobles of the clan have been raising their heads again over the years, but they don't know who the leader is.

This needs to be investigated later.

Originally, the eldest grandson set Yuan Chengde's words just to find out whether there were any complicated "interpersonal relationships" involved behind the Kaicheng District case.

You must know that so many people have disappeared in Kaicheng District, and the imperial court really knows nothing?

Even if Emperor Yaozong is "overwhelmed by the cold" and can't understand the situation at the grassroots level, what about Liu Xinyan, who is still the Shangshuling?

If Liu Xinyan is not clear about the situation, then why did he send Li Dong to inspect Kaicheng District?

Is it really just a whim? Or did you already know about it?

If it is a whim, how can you find the crux of the problem so accurately?

Therefore, the eldest grandson concluded that Liu Xinyan must have known about the missing people in Kaicheng District.

And with Liu Xinyan's knowledge, it is very problematic that Yuan Chengde can still sit in the position of the magistrate of Kaicheng District for so many years.

Now it seems that Yuan Chengde must have the support of the nobles of the clan behind him, so that the missing person case in Kaicheng District has not been thunderous for so many years.

As the eldest grandson said, "If there are complex human feelings involved behind a simple case, then we must first figure out the interpersonal relationships behind the case." ”

However, of course, the eldest grandson is not trying to curry favor with any force, but has experienced the "Autumn Hunting Bureau", and the situation in the imperial capital is complicated now, whether it is the "player murder case" or the "human disappearance case", in the eyes of the eldest grandson, it is too strange, and he needs to peel back the cocoon to see the "bureau" behind these cases.

At this time, the team had already reached the halfway point, and in the dark and silent streets of Kaicheng District, the team of the county government was a little eeriely quiet.

The eldest grandson walked while thinking about it, and unknowingly fell to the end of the line.

"Grandma's, I couldn't see my fingers in the middle of the night, and I ran out to arrest people, it's really a convulsion......"

Tonight was surprisingly dark for some reason, and the two handymen complained in a low voice while hanging at the end of the line, not caring about the eldest grandson at all.

Another handyman also couldn't help it, and said in a low voice: "That's it, I'm wandering around the Kaicheng area in the middle of the night, and I'm not afraid of encountering ghosts and ......."

The eldest grandson's thoughts were interrupted by the two behind him, and when he saw that he had fallen to the end of the line, he was about to hurry back.

It's just that the eldest grandson just raised his foot and thought of something, so he retracted his foot again.

The handyman behind him was still chattering.

"Don't talk about ghosts, it's unlucky to say this today."

The other handyman seemed to understand, and hurriedly babbled.

The eldest grandson eavesdropped on it for a while, but found that he didn't get any useful information, so he walked a little slower and came directly between the two.

The two who were talking in a low voice were shocked when they saw the eldest grandson who suddenly appeared in the middle, and then hurriedly shut their mouths.

"Big ...... Adult ......"

The two handymen looked nervously at the eldest grandson.

Before leaving, Yuan Chengde let the two of them see the scene of the sedan chair, although they didn't know what the identity of the eldest grandson was, but they could still taste the unusual ones.

The eldest grandson waved his hand and said in a low voice: "I'm not an adult, I'm just here to do chores like you......"

The miscellaneous servants were full of disbelief and slowly distanced themselves from the eldest grandson.

The eldest grandson then flickered: "My family is the one, and I am a follower......"

The eldest grandson pointed to Wu Qing in front of him.

Even in the dark night, the miscellaneous servants could vaguely see the "luxury" exuded by Wu Qing's body.

The miscellaneous servants will be suspicious, the eldest grandson can follow a noble person like Wu Qing, even if everyone is also a dog, there is a difference in status.

The eldest grandson saw that the miscellaneous servant's eyes were still detached when he looked at him, so he said indignantly: "You don't know that my family looks like a dog, and he is a demon behind his back......"

The eldest grandson paused deliberately, but the miscellaneous servants did not mean to talk at all.

The eldest grandson was not discouraged, and continued to say to himself: "He doesn't treat me as a human being at all, he beats and scolds me on weekdays, and he even has inhuman habits in private, and tortures me in every way......"

As soon as the eldest grandson said this, especially the "inhuman fetish" in the words, it aroused the interest of the handymen, and they looked at each other playfully.

Seeing that the two of them had taken the bait, the eldest grandson continued: "Do you know why I am wearing a mask? ”

The curiosity of the two was completely aroused, and the wariness and alienation in their eyes before disappeared.

"Why?"

"Yes, I'll see you in the afternoon and want to ask......"

The two hooked, but the eldest grandson was not in a hurry, but paused for a moment to brew emotions.

"You don't know, this master of mine looks at a talent, but in fact, he has a small belly, and he cares especially about his appearance......"

"I think I was also a young man back then, and my aura was extraordinary......"

The handyman nodded, but his eyes were full of "you just blow it".

"He was jealous of my appearance and painted my face with a knife, and I could only use this mask to cover the horrible scars on my face......"

The handymen looked at Wu Qing's beautiful face in the distance, this was the most beautiful man they had ever seen. Not to mention that men can't be compared, even many women will be ashamed of themselves.

And the masked man in front of him actually said that Wu Qing would be jealous of his appearance.

The two of them were full of disbelief.

Seeing this, the eldest grandson said, "You don't believe it? Don't believe I'll take off my mask and show you? ”

"Don't, don't...... We believe in you......"

The handyman hurriedly stopped it, looking at the scars on his face in the middle of the night, I was afraid that he would have nightmares for a few days.

The eldest grandson stopped his movements and said distressedly: "So, I actually envy you very much. Although everyone is a subordinate, at least you don't have to be like me all day long......"

When the miscellaneous servants heard this, they immediately retorted: "You are wrong, we are living a hard life every day, Yuan Chengde is a miser, and he spares no effort to squeeze us......

"Really? Let's talk about ......"

Sure enough, the complaints of the workers to the boss can resonate with the workers the most, and this is also applicable in the Kyushu mainland.

The eldest grandson thought secretly in his heart, and at the same time did not forget to praise the two, and for a while, the two of them talked more and more, and the three of them became more and more lively, and soon became acquainted.

Seeing that the time was ripe, the eldest grandson said, "By the way, brother, you tell me about today's action. Are you sure? This black light is blinding, why am I hairy? ”

The handymen were originally a little hairy walking on this dark street, but when they saw the appearance of the eldest grandson, they suddenly became a little bold, patted their chests and said, "Brother, don't worry, there are buddies who are okay today." ”

"Just the two of you?"

The eldest grandson looked at the miscellaneous servants with a look of disgust.

The handyman was suddenly provoked by the eldest grandson, and said, "You don't believe it? If you don't believe it, just wait and see. ”

Seeing that the two of them were about to turn their faces, the eldest grandson hurriedly explained: "Dude, of course I believe you...... It's just that I heard that even the catcher of Dali Temple was injured by the murderer, let's ...... Will it work? ”

When the miscellaneous servant heard the eldest grandson say this, he suddenly felt a little bottomless in his heart.

After all, in the imperial court, if it is said that the catch is divided into three, six, nine and so on, then the catch fast of Dali Temple and the catch fast of Kaicheng District and County are worlds apart.

Don't look at the team of the county government tonight, there are a lot of people, but there are few combat effectiveness that can really be used.

"I also heard about it, it is said that it is still the old chaban of Dali Temple......"

The handyman muttered to the other man.

The other was also a little hairy in his heart, but because of the bull that he had blown before, he said timidly to his companion, "No...... Before I left, I heard Wang Lao Liu say to Xiao Shunzi that today is going to go through the motions, and the murderer is already under their control......"

"Go through the motions? So what's going on with that Chaban injury he just mentioned? ”

"This ...... How do I know...... That's right! When I poured the water yesterday, I heard Wang Lao Liu muttering to Yu Lao Da, saying that the Chaban of Dali Temple can't even deal with a lame person, and it seems that it is in vain......"

"You mean this murderer is a cripple?"

"That's what it means......"

"Then there's nothing to worry about......"

The two muttered quietly, thinking that they had escaped the ears and eyes of the eldest grandson, but for the warrior, even if it was a mosquito call, it could be heard clearly at such a close distance.

After hearing this, the eldest grandson was calm on the surface, but he had already set off an uproar in his heart.

Chen Tian's injuries have been briefly investigated by him, and they are definitely not fake.

At the same time, when investigating Chen Tian's body, the eldest grandson also found that Chen Tian's body was far stronger than ordinary people, and there was a faint irregular flow of true qi in his body.

With such physical conditions, coupled with the combat experience accumulated in years of investigation, Chen Tian's combat effectiveness is definitely not weak.

In fact, Chen Tian used the sword drawing style that night, and the combat power he displayed had already surpassed that of ordinary walkers.

With such combat power and returning home with serious injuries, it is enough to show that the murderer to face tonight is by no means an idle person.

However, the "loose" state shown by the county government is by no means like facing a great enemy, can it be said that it ......

The eldest grandson has a bad guess in his heart, but it still needs to be confirmed.

"Dude, what are you two muttering? Still carrying me? ”

The eldest grandson pretended to be dissatisfied and said.

The two returned to normal, and said foolishly, "No...... We're talking about how to deal with emergencies in the future......"

"That's right...... In short, it is enough for you to follow the two of us, brothers, to keep you safe and sound. ”

The two patted their chests and reassured.

"Really...... Then I'll thank my two brothers first......"

The eldest grandson thanked him quietly.

"By the way, I remember that there should be a guy named Liu Zhi in your county office...... Why haven't I seen anyone else? ”

The eldest grandson asked casually.

But the eldest grandson's question made the miscellaneous servants vigilant.

"Liu Zhi? Do you know? ”

The eldest grandson felt the vigilant tone of the two, his heart tightened, and he continued to say indifferently: "Hey, how can I know him, I just heard my family say that he seems to be the first to discover the scene of the crime, so I thought if we asked him to know if this murderer was terrible......

As soon as the eldest grandson said this, the eyes of the two slowly eased.

"Brother, don't say that you didn't remind you when you were a brother...... Don't look small in this district, but the water is deep......"

The eldest grandson was stunned for a moment, pretending to be nervous, and asked in a low voice, "What do you say?" ”

The handyman cautiously glanced around, and when he saw that no one in the team was paying attention to this side, he whispered: "This Liu Zhi you said is the best proof......

The eldest grandson leaned closer, his eyes revealing a curious light.

"Liu Zhi is dead......"

"Dead? How did he die? ”

"He was killed while on patrol, and I disposed of his body at the time...... Don't mention it, I feel scared when I think about it now, I don't know what beast I was bitten, I don't have a human form......"

The eldest grandson was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly asked, "You mean that Liu Zhi was killed when he was patrolling Wanmin Lane at night, that is, the scene of the crime we are going to tonight?" ”

The handyman was also stunned by the eldest grandson's question, but he didn't expect this subordinate to know very clearly.

"yes......"

The eldest grandson was silent, and the bad thoughts in his mind became stronger and stronger.

"The county government is about to be killed, is there no action for the county government?"

The eldest grandson asked rhetorically.

The handyman chuckled lightly and said, "Does the county government have a move?" What kind of place is Kaicheng District, who dares to patrol Kaicheng District at night when it's okay usually? And you didn't think about why you arranged for him to go there for night patrol? Of course I want him to die! ”

The eldest grandson's pupils shrank, and he secretly scolded himself for being stupid in his heart.

How could the county government, the murderer of the poor people in Kaicheng District, not know that under such circumstances, he specially arranged for Liu Zhi to patrol at night, which obviously did not have a good heart.

At the same time, according to the meaning between the lines of the two miscellaneous servants, the fierce county government of Wanmin Lane has long been aware of it.

Wait a minute......

The eldest grandson's heart tightened, and his body was a little stiff to look at the two miscellaneous servants, and the two in the dark looked mysterious and terrifying in the silent walking procession.

"Isn't it Wanmin Lane where we're going now...... And it's the same midnight......"
