Chapter 46 Who is the murderer
The news of the killing of Li An, the prince of the Marquis of Jinxiang, spread all over the government and the opposition early the next morning, and countless people were shocked, especially the civil officials, Li An was killed on the way back to the house after visiting the second assistant Zhang Fu, which is equivalent to slapping Zhang Fu in the face, and also slapping the civil officials in the face, the officials of the various ministries and offices discussed a lot, and many people intentionally or unintentionally mentioned Jia Jue, because he was the most suspicious, but soon news came that Li An betrayed the Zhongshun Palace, which led to the killing, and the suspicion was transferred to the body of Zhu Houjiong, the king of Zhongshun.
The common people didn't care about the officials' speculation, what they cared about was that Li An was killed in Xicheng, which means that Shenjing is not safe, and the city is full of storms for a while.
Last night, Emperor Tianyou waited for the military report of Xuanfu Town, and he had only rested after three watches, and he had just gotten up at this time, and was sitting at the table drinking a bowl of ginseng tea, at this time, Dai Quan hurriedly came in and reported: "Your Majesty, there is news from the Soldiers and Horses Division that Li An was killed at the entrance of Gonghou Street in Xicheng last night. ”
"What!"
God bless the emperor to stand up, Li An was killed, who is so bold?
Emperor Tianyou thought for a moment and asked, "What is Jia Jue doing?" ”
"I accompanied Mrs. Tai out of the city early in the morning, saying that I was going to repay my vow, by the way, Lin Yanzheng's son-in-law also followed."
Emperor Tianyou listened, his eyes turned sharply, and when Dai Quan finished speaking, he pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "This kid is not a reckless person, this matter should have nothing to do with him.... Li An went to Zhang's mansion, well, is there any news from the Zhongshun Palace? ”
Hearing this, Dai Quan's eyes flashed, "Your Majesty, counting today, there has been no news for three days, and the old slave suspects that something has happened." ”
It was like a thunderclap, roaring above the head of Emperor Tianyou.
His sparkling eyes turned to Dai Quan, and a few words popped out from between his teeth, "Find Ma Shun!" ”
As he spoke, he strode straight up to the study.
......
Qingxuguan is located in the northeast corner of Xuanzhenguan, only more than 20 miles away from Shenjing City, can arrive at half an hour after a full fight, a stick of incense before, the convoy arrived at Qingxuguan, a few luxuriously decorated carriages were parked on the square outside the gate of Qingxuguan Mountain, it is estimated that some nobles and high-ranking officials came to burn incense and pray for blessings.
Qingxuguan covers a vast area, the main hall and the small hall are layered on top of each other, because Daiyu is not out of the pavilion of the young lady, Jia Mu led her to sit in a carriage directly into the second door, Jia Jue and Zhang Daoist while talking and laughing, while walking to the main hall, but said that this Zhang Taoist priest used to be the stand-in of Rong Guogong, and then made the main hall of the "Daolu Division", Emperor Wuzong personally named him the "Great Phantom Immortal", and now he is in charge of the "Daolu Division" seal, and now the saint is named "the end of the real person", all the princes and ministers have to call him an old fairy when they see him, and his identity is not more than ordinary.
At the entrance of the main hall, Jia's mother was already waiting here, and when she saw Jia Jue coming, she said: "I will go to the pillar incense, I will stay for a while, you have to take care of Yu'er." ”
As he spoke, he nodded to Daoist Zhang again, "Trouble the old immortal." ”
Daoist Zhang hurriedly waved his hands, "Immeasurable Tianzun, this is what Xiaodao should do, Ancestor please." ”
turned around and smiled at Jia Jue again: "Xiaodao is out of company, uncle, please take care of yourself." ”
"Trouble the old fairy."
Jia Jue said to the mandarin duck and a few mothers-in-law: "Take care of the old lady." ”
"Third master, rest assured!"
The mandarin duck nodded, and led a few mothers-in-law into the main hall.
Daiyu looked at Jia's mother's back and hesitated, "Third brother, I want to go to the side hall to have a look." ”
Jia Jue nodded, "Then I'll accompany you." ”
Zijuan made a bitter face and pointed to his feet, "Girl, if you have the third master to accompany you, I won't go, my foot twisted when I just got out of the carriage." ”
Qingwen took Xiangling's hand and hurriedly said, "We have to take care of Sister Zijuan, so we won't go." ”
“.... I, I...."
Snow Goose is a good boy, never lies, anxious and sweaty, but unable to speak.
"Alright! I see, you don't want to go with me. ”
Daiyu glared at Jia Jue angrily, turned around and walked towards the side hall.
"Good girl, when you go home, you go to find your Amber sister by yourself, just say my words, and each person will be rewarded with a set of jewelry, and choose it yourself."
"Thank you, Third Master."
Qingwen, Xiangling, and Snow Goose were all very excited.
Zijuan smiled, "The third master shouldn't hurry up, the girl is far away." ”
Jia Jue also smiled, and hurriedly said to her: "Good girl! The third master remembers you. ”
Jia Jue walked like a fly, and shouted to Daiyu on the other: "Sister Lin, you wait for me." ”
Daiyu stopped, "I'm so angry that you're doing this again." ”
Jia Jue looked at her in confusion, "Why?" ”
Daiyu said as she walked: "Zijuan and Mother Song are okay, they were originally from the Jia family, and now even Mama Wang and Xue Yan listen to you..."
Jia Jue: "They just think it's good for their sister to do this, and they sincerely hope that their sister is good." ”
Daiyu deliberately sank her face, "Good for me!" I think it's for your own good. ”
Jia Jue smiled secretly, followed Daiyu to the side hall, and when she arrived at the door of the hall, Fang said: "They believe that I am for the good of my sister." ”
Daiyu glanced at Jia Jue deeply, did not speak, turned around and walked into the side hall.
In the side hall, there is a statue of Dongyue Taishan Tianxian Jade Maiden Bixia Yuanjun, Daiyu stepped forward and Ying Ying knelt down, respectfully kowtowed three heads, bowed her head and recited a few words silently.
When he opened his eyes for a while, he suddenly found that Jia Jue was kneeling beside him, and he was silently praying for something with his palms together.
After a while, Jia Jue opened his eyes, saw Daiyu looking at him, and said with a smile: "Sister is fine." ”
Daiyu nodded and whispered, "Hmm." ”
Jia Jue smiled, got up and picked her up, "Take advantage of the gap, let's take a walk." ”
As he walked, he said, "I didn't expect my sister to care about me so much." ”
Daiyu glared at him, and said with some dissatisfaction: "If you dare to say it, I, I will ignore you in the future!" ”
"You don't know, in order to save my life, I have worked hard to train my ears, and I can listen to it from so far away."
Jia Jue made an exaggerated gesture and said with a smile: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on my sister's wish. ”
Daiyu stared at Jia Jue for a long time, and suddenly, she covered her mouth and chuckled, and slowly lowered her head and whispered: "Next year.... You will come with me to repay your vows. ”
"No problem."
Jia Jue pointed outside, "It's hard to go out, let's have a good look." ”
The two walked from the side hall to the second-floor mountain gate, worshiped and watched the hall by hall, and met Daoist Zhang on the way, knowing that Jia Mu had finished incense, so he went back again.
After eating fast in Qingxuguan, Jia Jue escorted Jia Mu and others back to Rongguo Mansion.
After returning from Qingxuguan, Jia Jue received a report from his own soldiers, saying that Jia Gui had succeeded.
This news made Jia Jue very happy, early in the morning he got the news that Li An was killed, thinking about it, the only one who had a reason to do it was Zhu Houjiong, the king of Zhongshun, and took out the small yellow book and flipped through it, and found the two strongholds of the Zhongshun Palace's palace in Xicheng, which were all exterminated by the nobles in the battle for succession, and it must be the killer in these two strongholds.
Jia Jue walked quickly to the outer study, thinking about how to use the card in his hand, and how not to attract the emperor's attention, it is estimated that Dongchang and Jinyiwei have not found out the clues, if they are exposed, they will definitely be suspected by the emperor.
Maybe you can throw people directly to the Jinxiang Marquis Mansion and let them eat dogs.
As soon as Jia Jue's mind turned, he immediately realized that he couldn't do this, not to mention that the Marquis of Jinxiang couldn't help the King of Zhongshun, even Li Jiqing might choose to destroy the evidence he sent for the sake of the family, and he didn't dare to offend the King of Zhongshun at this time.
Now the most anxious should be Zhang Fu, after all, Li An was killed after leaving his mansion, so it stands to reason that he has to give an explanation to the Jinxiang Hou Mansion, especially if he has just lost three leading generals, at this time, if he can't support the Jinxiang Hou Mansion that has just fallen to him, it will chill people's hearts, this is exactly the effect that the people behind him want, for this, even if he offends the entire Zhongshun Wang lineage, he will not hesitate.
Jia Gui stood outside the outer study with an account book, and when he saw Jia Jue walking quickly, he hurriedly stepped forward, "Third master, this is found out from those two strongholds." ”
Jia Jue nodded, and then asked, "How is it?" ”
Jia Gui: "The leader is the head of the guards of the Zhongshun Palace, the ancestors have followed two generations of Zhongshun kings to fight on the battlefield, in order to hold the mouth, the brothers wasted a lot of effort, three people were seriously injured, one of them may not work!" ”
Jia Jue's eyes lit up, "Is the evidence complete?" ”
"Third Master rest assured, these people are also big-hearted, knowing that the fallen bows and arrows fell into the hands of the Terracotta Division, they didn't destroy those bows and arrows, even those bloodstained night clothes. There are all kinds of human and material evidence. ”
"Good!"
A hint of laughter appeared at the corner of Jia Jue's mouth, and he said to Jia Gui: "At this time, it is estimated that Zhang Fu is going crazy, you personally go and throw the murderer and evidence at the door of Zhang's mansion, be careful!" ”
Half an hour later, four or five fast horses suddenly appeared on the street at the door of Zhang's mansion, the second assistant of the Dongcheng cabinet, and the little man in Zhang's mansion hurriedly retreated to the mansion and closed the door, and after a long time, he didn't make a sound, and he stuck out his head, only to see a hemp bag in front of the door, and the sack didn't know what it contained, but it was still moving, it seemed to be a living thing.....
In Zhang's study, the second assistant Zhang Fu's face turned pale, his lips trembled, and he patted the bookcase again and again, "Okay!" Good! What a loyal king! You said! What should I do about this?! ”
Wu Shichang, the imperial historian, was full of indifference, and replied: "It's very simple, if the evidence is there, it depends on whether Li Jiqing has the courage to do so." ”
Zhang Fu: "Okay.... That's it, if he Li Jiqing dares to wrestle with Zhu Houjiong, we will vigorously support him, if he doesn't dare, then don't blame us. ”
Zhou Yang, the secretary of the ministry, nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Can you find out who it is?" ”
Zhang Fu's face was solemn, he shook his head, and said slowly: "It is estimated that it is in the palace, but I can't take care of it, we must prove our innocence in this matter, otherwise who will dare to take refuge in us in the future." ”
"Okay, I'll personally take someone to the Jinxiang Marquis Mansion."
Wu Shichang put the tea bowl aside, looked at Zhang Fu and said.
Zhang Fu nodded approvingly.
