Chapter 221: Raging Storm

For Xu Zun, the night in Xuan Miao City was destined to be different.

The bright moon hangs high, and the place is prosperous.

The city is home to not only old Chinese architecture, but also exotic foreign buildings, as well as some wonderfully unique and unknown buildings.

In a trance, he actually gave Xu Zun a bizarre illusion.

But after absorbing the memories in my mind, I realized that the Great Xuan Holy Capital came to the dynasty of all countries, and it embraced all things, and there were many foreigners and aliens who settled here since ancient times.

Take the old Dali Temple Cheng Tiejing as an example, he is an old man with blue eyes and a tall nose, and obvious foreigner characteristics.

However, this did not affect him to become a Dali Temple.

Dali Temple is the head of the three law divisions, and Dali Temple is equivalent to the three leaders of Dali Temple, second only to Dali Temple Qing and Dali Temple Shaoqing.

In this large-scale assassination, Liu Jin, the secretary of Dali Temple, was also among them, and unfortunately died.

Nowadays, the dragons of Dali Temple are leaderless and a mess, so Tie Jing, who is sitting in the carriage, is a little absent-minded.

"Hmph," the Dongfang God Hunt in the same carriage glanced at the curtain and snorted coldly, "The Inner Guard Mansion is really getting more and more outrageous!"

"At this time, instead of arresting the Xuanmen and the party, it is a waste of time to get such a guy of unknown origin to investigate the case."

"Alas......" Tie Jing stroked his beard and said impetuously, "Just check, check it, in the middle of the night, what are you doing to toss me, an old man?" ”

"He wouldn't think ......," guessed the Eastern Divine Catcher, "those female assassins can still be caught, right?" Xuanmen has brewed such a bloody case, and we must have already thought of a way out, and we are obviously doing useless work. ”

"None of this is what I'm worried about," Tie Jing said, "The Inner Guard Mansion can't afford to provoke it, let them toss it!" What I'm most afraid of now is that the holy capital will change! ”

Tie Jing didn't say it thoroughly, but the meaning was already very obvious, what he was most worried about was that there would be chaos in the DPRK and China, and he was only thinking about how he could avoid the disaster?

Dongfang Shenzhu wanted to complain again, but when he saw that the topic between himself and Tie Jing couldn't spark, he closed his mouth and turned to pondering something.

At the same time, Chen Taiji was catching up with Xu Zun in the carriage in front of him, and at the same time introducing the situation to Xu Zun.

"Because the name is a bit ...... Well...... It's a little special, so Cai Geling didn't introduce her name to you," Chen Taiji said, "Dongfang Divine Hunt is the head catcher of the Divine Hunting Division, don't look at the same head catcher, but the grade is not low, even many senior officials in the DPRK have to let her have a few points."

"After all, the Divine Capture Division was also founded by the Queen Mother herself, who would dare to offend?"

"Special?" Xu Zun was curious, "Then what is her name?" ”

"Oriental Enchantment," Chen Taiji said the name of the Oriental Divine Capture, "She is a child of the Oriental family of the nobles of the Plains, she grew up in Xuanmiao City since she was a child, and she often investigates cases and arrests key criminals, so she is quite familiar with the Holy Capital, large and small forces, light and dark black and white are used by her, and she has a wide range of contacts. ”

"Oriental Enchanting ......" Xu Zun smacked his lips and tasted it, feeling that this name was really special, no wonder Cai Kun did not call him by his name when he introduced it.

"Ji Ying," Chen Taiji paused for a moment and said to Xu Zun, "Do you think that this large-scale assassination incident ...... What's the problem? ”

Seeing that Xu Zun did not deny it, Chen Taiji's face changed instantly.

"What......" he asked in a low voice, "do you think the attack on the Xuanmen is not over?" ”

Terrible......

Xu Zun looked at Chen Taiji, no wonder Cai Kun spoke highly of this person, and he was really quick-witted.

"I'm not sure yet," Xu Zun said, "but the Xuanmen named this attack the Heavenly Tribulation, I'm afraid it's not that simple. ”

"Isn't it easy?" Chen Taiji said, "The assassination of Xuanmen this time is not only aimed at the Holy Capital, but all over the country, and it has already moved the foundation of the Great Xuanmen.

"A spark can start a prairie fire," he said worriedly, "Originally, all forces were already dissatisfied with the Queen Mother, but now that this fire has been burned, it is likely to be out of control!" ”

Well......

Although Xu Zun is a newcomer, through contact and understanding, he has already understood that the Empress Dowager Lin of the Great Xuan Dynasty is not the same as Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty.

Although it is also a monopoly of power and suppression of various forces, Empress Dowager Lin has no intention of proclaiming herself queen, nor does she wantonly slaughter the royal bloodline.

Outsiders estimate that Empress Dowager Lin does not want to give power to the emperor, but she can't do it, because the emperor is weak, and the emperor's uncles are like wolves and tigers, and once power is delegated, there will be many variables.

Therefore, the current crisis may be fatal enough, and once those forces that are ready to move use this as an excuse to make trouble, Daxuan will inevitably be in danger.

"Xuanmiao City seems to be calm," Chen Taiji sighed, shook his head and said, "In fact, a storm has been brewing for a long time, but I don't know when this storm will break out!?" ”

……

The holy capital was so big that the group walked for nearly half an hour before they came to an elegant mansion in Xinglongfang.

This is the home of the Ministry of Works.

Since there was a curfew in the Holy City, there were no pedestrians on the streets, it was unusually deserted, and the entrance to the house was empty.

Hou Zhen took the lead in going up and knocking on the door, and as the door opened, Hou Zhen showed the internal guard token.

The token is also divided into grades, and this piece is a first-level token of internal guard, which was issued by Lin Chaofeng himself.

Seeing the token, the people inside hurriedly opened the door and welcomed Xu Zun and others into the courtyard.

When I got to the courtyard, I saw that the front yard was full of guards with weapons.

These guards were dressed differently, obviously from different departments, and when they saw Dongfang Enchanting and Tie Jing get out of the car, they all came forward to greet each other.

After seeing the two of them follow Xu Zun into the house, these guards also showed surprised eyes, thinking that some super official had come.

After entering the house, he saw that Yingrang's body was placed in the hall, but the mourning hall was not arranged, and the family members of the deceased were not wearing filial piety.

Presumably for fear of causing panic, this has been doing secrecy work here, and it is not a secret.

Fortunately, it is a cold winter, otherwise it would have been difficult to preserve the corpse.

After expressing his intention to the family of the deceased, Xu Zun asked Ying Shilang's eldest son to take him to the scene of the crime.

“…… Your Excellency," the winner Da Lang answered Xu Zun's question as he walked, "That little concubine was married by my father three months ago, her name is Rusha, and she is eighteen years old at most, right?" Looking so thin, how can you be so ruthless? ”

"Oh?" Xu Zun stopped and asked, "Did you see her commit murder?" ”

"yes!" The winner said, "My father came back late from business that day, and the family was having dinner......

As he spoke, he gestured as he held the bowl and put the food in his mouth.

"As a result, it was a knife that cut my father's throat......," said the winner, "and then, in front of our family, he swaggered out......

"We ...... We were all stupefied, and when we chased her out, she would be gone! ”

While speaking, the winner Da Lang had already taken Xu Zun and others to the restaurant, but saw that there were obvious blood stains sprinkled on the floor of the restaurant.

Seeing this situation, Xu Zun glanced back at Ani.

As a result, Ani took out a dagger, pressed it against the neck of the winner, and asked, "Is the knife held backwards?" ”

"Ah......" the winner replied with a trembling face, "Okay...... It seems to be ...... She's holding the knife in a weird way, exactly like you......"

Hearing this, Ani's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she put away the knife and came to Xu Zun, leaned close to Xu Zun's ear and whispered:

"Let them draw a portrait, I seem to know the killer he said."

"Oh?"

Xu Zun nodded, and wanted to order immediately, but Ani pressed his shoulder and added:

"I know of a contact mark they use, which can be found in the neighborhood......"
