Chapter 855: Sensation

King Zhennan died, and the news caused a sensation in the entire Wannian County.

These days, the news he heard the most every day was the killing of King Zhennan.

Now that he heard that he was alive again, how could he not be excited?

"No, there should be something else."

Qin Fan suddenly became vigilant.

The news of King Zhennan's death has been in an uproar, but he has not received half of the news, which shows that King Zhennan's death is not a simple accident.

It is very likely that someone deliberately concealed it.

And now that he is the county magistrate of Wannian County, he naturally becomes a suspect.

"Looks like there's going to be a way to find out about this." Qin Fan said secretly in his heart.

He couldn't help but think that those officers and soldiers arrested them because someone leaked the news of the assassination of King Zhennan?

Why did those people kill the king of Zhennan?

Is it for profit, or is it for anger?

"Qin Fan, why did you come to Zhenbei Street again?"

"Brother Qin, don't you want to die? Now that you're a prefectural magistrate, you can't just run around."

Qin Fan was thinking about it when a familiar voice came into his ears.

He turned his head to look, and saw Lin Xiaoyue standing not far away in a plain dress, she seemed to be about to go home, and when she saw Qin Fan, she quickly stopped.

"Xiaoyue, it's me." Qin Fan said.

"Oh, it's you." Lin Xiaoyue smiled and said, "You haven't answered my question yet, you don't want to die? You actually came to Zhenbei Street?"

Qin Fan said, "I'm here to investigate some things."

"Investigation? What do you need to do in person?" Lin Xiaoyue was puzzled.

Qin Fan smiled and said, "It's about a case."

"About the case?" Lin Xiaoyue frowned.

"That's right."

"You have to be careful, Zhenbei Street is not an ordinary thief, it is a mixture of fish and dragons, don't provoke easily." Lin Xiaoyue said solemnly.

"Hmm." Qin Fan nodded.

Then he chatted with Lin Xiaoyue for a few more words and went back.

The next morning, after Qin Fan got up and had breakfast, he went to the yamen to report.

Today is Qin Fan's seventh day as a county magistrate, and he plans to continue to stay on Zhenbei Street for a while to see if he can find clues.

"Lord Qin, my son-in-law is invited."

On the morning of that day, not long after he arrived at the county office, a guard came to pay a report.

"What childe?" Qin Fan wondered.

He didn't remember who he knew was Childe.

The guard explained, "It's the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion in the north of the town."

"What." Qin Fan's pupils shrank.

This time, the news of the assassination of King Zhennan came out, and all forces in Zhenbei City were talking about it, and they were all speculating about who the murderer of King Zhennan was.

Qin Fan was also speculating, but he couldn't be sure.

After all, assassinating the king of Zhennan is a very tricky matter.

If he hadn't investigated the murderer, it would have been difficult for him to get away with it.

But now that the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion has come to the door, this makes him feel a little tricky.

"I'm the county magistrate of Wannian County now, what is the identity of the Zhenguo Mansion, how can I allow you to be wild?"

Qin Fan's mind was racing, and then he said, "You go and talk back and tell the Zhenguo Gong that the county order has something important to do, and you can't get away for the time being."

"Yes, sir."

The guards left.

Soon, Qin Fan met the prince of Zhenguo in the Zhenguo Mansion.

"Lord Qin, this son is looking for you because he has something important to discuss."

The prince of Zhenguo looked at Qin Fan and said straight to the point.

Qin Fan nodded and said, "Lord Shizi, please speak."

The prince of Zhenguo slowly spoke, "Last night, my father died of a sudden illness, and I specially came to ask Lord Qin for advice, hoping that Lord Qin can solve this matter

。」

"Don't worry, since King Zhennan died at my hands, I will naturally be responsible for this matter."

"As for the Zhenbei Wangfu, this official will naturally do his best."

"Since Lord Qin said so, this son of the world is relieved." The prince of Zhenguo said with a smile.

Qin Fan arched his hand and said, "Thank you for reminding the prince, the official will definitely do his best in this matter."

"Since that's the case, this son won't bother Lord Qin."

After that, the prince of Zhenguo got up and was about to leave.

Qin Fan suddenly stopped him.

"Wait."

"Wait a moment."

The prince of Zhenguo turned to look at Qin Fan: "What else does Lord Qin command?"

Qin Fan asked, "I wonder where King Zhennan was assassinated?"

The prince of Zhenguo hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know exactly where it is, but I heard from my father that it is in a forest in the western suburbs."

"At the beginning, my father traveled with his guards, but he was ambushed, and he ended up in a different place."

"It turned out to be in the western suburbs."

Qin Fan muttered, "The king of Zhennan died in the woods, it seems that the murderer should be a certain force in Zhenbei City."

He pondered for a moment and asked, "By the way, Lord Shizi, did the murderer who assassinated King Zhennan leave any clues?"

"Murderer?"

"No, I haven't."

The prince of Zhenguo shook his head, his face became solemn: "Two days have passed since this incident, and now it is difficult to find clues again."

"However, I heard that you, Lord Qin, have been following the forces in Zhenbei City, but you have gained something?" The prince of Zhenguo asked tentatively.

"Don't tell you the truth, I really found a clue."

"What clue?" The prince of Zhenguo immediately asked.

"A group of people in Zhenbei City, they specially selected the terrain and terrain near Zhenbei City to assassinate."

"The targets are all nobles and officials in the city, so I reason."

"There should be a contradiction between this group of people and a certain force in Zhenbei Wangfu or Wannian County, or rather, both sides are-for-tat."

"-for-tat?" The prince of Zhenguo was stunned for a moment, "Lord Qin meant. The murderer is targeting the Zhenbei Palace?"

"I don't dare to say anything, I just think it's possible."

"Anyway, since Lord Qin, you have found a clue, this prince will help you verify it."

Qin Fan arched his hand and said gratefully, "Thank you, Lord Shizi."

The prince of Zhenguo waved his hand: "Why worry about the effort of raising your hands?"

Then the prince of Zhenguo left.

Qin Fan sat on the chair, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he fell into deep thought.

He had a very serious question in mind.

The forces of Zhenbei Wangfu and Wannian County are both big forces in Zhenbei City, if there is a conflict between them.

Then it will definitely not give up, and it will definitely cause an uproar when the time comes.

Although he is now the county magistrate of Wannian County, if there is a large-scale conflict in Wannian County, he will not be able to serve as a county magistrate for long.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt the pressure doubled.

"It seems that I am still too young and lack experience."

Qin Fan took a deep breath and tried to calm his restless emotions.
