Chapter 903: Knife Wounds

The Dragon King publicly accused the guards of the Central Plains envoy of being the murderer, which brought more shock and surprise than Han Fen's nonsense, and there was also confusion.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and finally Wei Song spoke, "I believe that the Dragon King is not the one who believes in Kaihe, you must have evidence for saying this, right?"

"Yes. Gu Shenwei said, and the scene, which was originally just a blur, suddenly became clear.

Deputy Envoy Sun Chengqi was quite anxious, obviously feeling that the people of the Western Regions were a little unreasonable, "I want to remind the Dragon King, Lord Ma's guard is dead, and he died next to the adult, is it a suicide in fear of sin? And what about the assassin who fell from the city?"

Gu Shenwei's eyes swept around, "Please listen to my guess first, yes, it's just a guess, and then I will prove that the guess is accurate." After a pause, he continued: "The guardβ€”I don't know his name yetβ€”killed the envoy in the carriage for some reason, and his plan was probably to pretend to be an assassin on the bridge, chase him out, and come back again, 'discovering' that the Lord had been killed, and that the guards at the gates were his witnesses. To his surprise, there really was an assassin and killed him without mercy. The Assassin was able to escape, but was hunted by a sleeper. ”

"There were a lot of 'accidents'. Sun Chengqi sarcastically said that if this was the Dragon King's ability, he would no longer want to join forces with him to bring down the protector of the Western Regions.

"It was all premeditated by the fact that it was unexpectedly unexpected, and now I am going to prove my suspicion to you. Shangguan Hong. ”

Shangguan Hong had an ominous premonition, and when he heard the Dragon King call out his name, his legs were weak, and he almost fell, which made him afraid not only of accepting cross-examination, but also of his father Dubu Wang, who was sitting not far away.

Although it had been recognized six years ago, Shangguan Hong and his father had never been close to each other, and he was still the same as before, huddled in the crowd to look up to the king from afar, this was the first time, the distance between each other was no more than ten steps, and he had to speak in front of the Dubu king.

"In. Shangguan Hong's voice was hoarse, as if he had just come out of the desert.

"You killed the assassin in the city?"

"Yes. ”

The answer between the two immediately caused a small stir, Shangguan Hong is a subordinate of the Dragon King, and the son of the Dubu King, for the Central Plains people who do not know the inside story, the Dragon King is almost equivalent to admitting that the Dragon King and Jinpeng Fort are the masterminds behind the assassination.

Everyone had a bunch of questions to say, and a few of them had even opened their mouths and closed them again, for the dragon king appeared extremely calm, indicating that he had nothing to say.

The room fell silent, and Gu Shenwei then asked, "How long have you been in ambush in the city?"

"Probably...... Two or three hours. Shangguan Hong lowered his head, sweating profusely, and felt that his entire body seemed to be hollowed out, he didn't understand what the Dragon King meant by suddenly calling himself out, framing him, or did he deliberately pull the Dubu King into the water?

"So you see clearly what is happening on the bridge?"

"Very clear. "Before figuring out the true intentions of the Dragon King, Shangguan Hong decided to tell the truth as much as possible.

"Wait. Deputy envoy Sun Chengqi interrupted, "It was the middle of the night, can you see clearly?"

"Lanterns were lit on the bridge and at the gates, and they were very bright. ”

"Hmm. Sun Chengqi didn't say anything.

"Did you see the assassin?" asked Gu Shenwei.

"See. ”

"Tell me about the scene. ”

"Well, the Assassin was hiding under the bridge, and when the carriage passed, he jumped out from under the bridge, got into the carriage, and came out again, very quickly, almost in the blink of an eye. ”

"How fast?"

Shangguan Hong became more and more confused, he had told the Dragon King in detail about the situation that night, and the Dragon King didn't particularly care about this issue at that time, "That's it...... It seems that I didn't stop in the car at all, and it was an instant thing to get in and out. ”

"You show it. ”

The Dragon King's request didn't seem to make much sense, it was just a waste of time, Wei Song said: "I think everyone understands what the Dragon King means, I want to say that the assassin entered the carriage too fast, so there is no time to kill two people, right?"

"That's exactly what I want to prove. ”

Wei Song showed a look of sympathy, "I believe in the Dragon King, and I also believe in this ...... Shangguan Gongzi told the truth, but after all, he was hiding in the city, and he didn't see what happened in the carriage, he felt that the time was very short, maybe it was just his own illusion, after all, he had been hiding there for two or three hours, and it was normal to be a little anxious. ”

The killer will not be in a hurry because of two or three hours of waiting, Gu Shenwei and Shangguan Fa both know this, but no one intends to explain it to the Central Plains people.

Sun Chengqi opened his mouth and said: "What Wei Duhu said is extremely true, the Dragon King can't use another person's guess to confirm his guess, he has to have more solid evidence, after all, what you are accusing is the guard next to Lord Ma, I know this person, he has been loyal to his duties along the way, and he has protected Lord Ma very well." ”

Gu Shenwei nodded slightly, "There is evidence, it is the wound on the envoy's body, the assassin used the Western Regions narrow knife, and the guard is from the Central Plains, presumably either with a sword or a dagger, and the wounds caused are very different from the narrow knife." ”

"What difference can this be?" Sun Chengqi asked in astonishment, he didn't know martial arts, and he couldn't think of what "big difference" meant.

Gu Shenwei's gaze did not look at the deputy envoy, but at Wei Song, "There are many Central Plains masters around Lord Wei, and they can prove that there is still a difference." ”

Wei Song couldn't calm down, and involuntarily turned his head to look at Luo Qikang standing beside him, and the most famous swordsman of the Luo family blinked.

"Uh, this...... Master Ma's body has already been put into the coffin, so it's not appropriate to disturb it again. Wei Song excused himself.

Sun Chengqi also brought a guard and asked him directly, "Can you see the difference?"

The guard was slightly embarrassed, he had already smelled a strong smell of conspiracy, and he didn't want to get involved, so he had to say: "There should be a difference, but the villain is clumsy, I'm afraid I can't see it." ”

Sun Chengqi snorted dissatisfiedly, "There are a lot of martial artists here in Weiduhu, I think my eyesight will be good, and it is worth believing." Although it is not advisable to move again in the coffin, but the matter is special, you, me, and everyone here are all responsible, since the Dragon King has such a guess, he should confirm it. ”

Wei Song's face was embarrassed, and he quickly changed his mind, "Since the deputy envoy has this intention, then open the coffin for autopsy, but it's too late now, and the results will have to be tomorrow at the earliest." ”

"Then we'll talk about it tomorrow. "Sun Chengqi's official position is lower than Wei Song's, but he is the deputy envoy, and as soon as Ma Lian died, he represented the Central Plains Imperial Court, so his words carried a lot of weight, "But before the results come out, I still want to ask the Dragon King a few questions." ”

Wei Song didn't say anything, and said cautiously, "Excuse me." ”

"I agree to the autopsy, but if the wound is correct, it was caused by a narrow knife, then all the dragon king's guesses are wrong, can you bear the responsibility?"

"Of course. Gu Shenwei expressed his seven or eight points of certainty in his heart, "If I guess wrong, I am willing to bear the responsibility of false accusation, apologize to you and the Central Plains guards, and take the charge of assassinating the envoy." ”

"Hey, is the charge taken? The Dragon King's words are too much. Sun Chengqi had faintly become the leader of this meeting, and Fa Feng, who was sitting on the main seat, and Wei Song, who was at the top, both cautiously kept silent, "Since the Dragon King has already guessed, then continue to guess, why did Lord Ma's guards murder the master?"

"Maybe it's a personal grudge, maybe it's being bribed, I believe that as long as you investigate a little, it will come to light. ”

"If the wounds on Master Ma's body were really not caused by the narrow knife, Wei Duhu and I will definitely investigate. Let me ask you again, how could this Shangguan prince beside the Dragon King be so coincidental that he was guarding the city, happened to see the assassin, and killed the assassin?"

"Let him speak for himself. ”

Shangguan Hong was stunned again, and couldn't help asking, "Are you telling the truth?"

"Just tell the truth. ”

Shangguan Hong mustered up his courage and looked at the Central Plains people opposite, "I'm learning a new swordsmanship, and I need ...... Kill a few people. ”

"It turns out that you are the assassin in Biyu City!" Sun Chengqi exclaimed in surprise.

"No, no, no. Shangguan Hong hurriedly denied it, "There are only a few people I killed, most of them have nothing to do with me, there are many assassins in Biyu City, and I am just one of them." ”

Sun Chengqi shook his head, feeling more and more strange that the people of the Western Regions were strange, "You can go on." ”

"I felt that my swordsmanship had been successful, so I wanted to find another assassin to prove it, so I went to stay in the alley to squat, and for two nights in a row, I saw someone secretly watching, I didn't know that the person being monitored was the Central Plains envoy, I guess the assassin would choose to do it on the bridge, so I went to the city to wait...... He came, got into the carriage, came out very quickly, jumped on the wall, we fought a few moves, I killed him, and that's it. It wasn't until the next day that I found out who was in the car. ”

For Sun Chengqi, this is an unbelievable story, which can only prove that Biyucheng is really lawless and urgently needs the formal rule of the Central Plains, he was silent for a while, and suddenly stopped paying attention to Shangguan Hong and the Dragon King, but asked Shangguan Fa, "Just now you said that there is still evidence, should you also take it out?"

"Well, the Dragon King's guess is very interesting, I don't judge whether it's true or not, everything will wait for the results of tomorrow's autopsy. As for the assassin who was killed by Shangguan Hongβ€”"

When Shangguan Hong heard his father say his name, he trembled with fright, and could only tell himself over and over again: You have learned advanced swordsmanship, and there is no need to be afraid.

Shangguan Fa paused for a moment and continued: "I know him, his name is Yang Hao, he used to be an apprentice of Jinpeng Castle, he left voluntarily a year ago, and his whereabouts have not been known since then, and it was not until yesterday that I found out who his new master was. ”

"Who?" asked Sun Chengqi eagerly.

"Lady Iron Mountain Luo. ”

Gu Shen did not mention the identity of the assassin and bypassed the trap set by Wei Song and others, but Dubu Wang brought it up, he wanted to put all the responsibility on Xiaoyuetang and the lotus girl at first, but now he wants to sacrifice Luo Ning tea.

Mrs. Meng, who was not present, triumphed, and she succeeded in getting her husband to abandon his old love.

Luo Ningcha, who was also not at the scene, did not know that he was in danger.
