Chapter 44: Common Ground

Fang Zhongjin and Ji Changan's investigation was abruptly interrupted by Ji Gang, but fortunately, the two had already made a confession as high as a mountain.

Just to sort out the clues from these confessions, it would take ordinary people to go through them for a whole month.

Although Fang Zhongjin comforted Ji Chang'an, he also knew in his heart: These confessions may not be of much use.

Just like the case file of Ryan Bo at the beginning, although there is a full shelf, there are no clues worth digging into.

The man behind the scenes is a shrewd guy who has already wiped everything he can think of.

Fang Zhongjin frowned, trying to figure out a clue.

Suddenly, his eyes widened and he asked, "What do the people behind the scenes want to get from Ryan Bo after all the effort they put into it?"

Ji Changan was also stunned and said: "Although Ryan Bo was born in Bofu, he is very motivated. The emperor was planning to reuse him. Perhaps it was to oppose the imperial court, so the emperor's favored person was killed. ”

Fang Zhongjin fell silent when he heard this. If he had been in the capital like Ji Chang'an, looking at the only clues, he could only come up with such speculations.

But Fang Zhongjin knew that most of the people behind the scenes were the same person as the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion.

This person may not be old, but his ability is heavenly, and he has done many things that are incomprehensible.

But none of them have a purpose.

If it is counted from the first confrontation with the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion, it is a past incident with the beggar gang outside Jinhua Mansion.

At that time, Fang Zhongjin felt for the first time that there was a powerful and mysterious force, which seemed to be the idea of fighting the beggar gang, or maybe it was the idea of fighting Xia Yuanji, the commander of Jinhua County.

Because he couldn't figure it out, Fang Zhongjin put aside the doubts at that time.

Now that a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, Fang Zhongjin spread a piece of rice paper on the table, and immediately wrote the words "Ryan Bo Liu Mingkong" with a pen dipped in ink.

After hesitating for a while, he wrote the words "Jinhuafu County Order Xia Yuanji" under it.

Finally, he wrote the three words Fang Zhongjin at the end.

It is not for nothing that these three names are written.

Fang Zhongjin observed the actions of the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion, and it seemed that he had spent effort on all three of them.

If it is said that Ryan Bo Liu Mingkong's death was because the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion wanted to kill the young Junjie who even the emperor valued.

Then he doesn't have to kill with poisons that can make people's martial arts advance by leaps and bounds and become addictive.

There are thousands of poisons in the world, and I don't know how many of them can kill people invisibly.

The one that the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion used to kill Ryan Burr was the stupidest and most easily exposed.

Judging from the various performances of the people behind the scenes, Fang Zhongjin felt that he would not be careless enough to expose such obvious flaws.

After thinking about it carefully, Fang Zhongjin guessed that it might be that the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion originally wanted to win over and control Ryan Bo, so he used the evil method to make him take addictive poison.

Later, in the eyes of the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion, this Ryan Bo was in the bag.

First, martial arts have improved by leaps and bounds, and second, if you cut off the antidote, you will die of pain.

Any normal person in the world will choose to obey the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion.

But Ryan Burr is not an ordinary person. After taking the poison by mistake, he may have been uncompromising, preferring to endure the pain and explode to death than reach out to the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion to ask for an antidote.

Of course, there are also flaws in Fang Zhongjin's speculation. That's why didn't Ryan Bo take the initiative to confess to the emperor when he was bewitched?

With the huge power of the imperial court, even a clue can find out the people behind the scenes.

Why do you have to die so hard that you don't even see the light of day?

Then he looked at Xia Yuanji's name, this person also has a talent that ordinary people can't match.

Fang Zhongjin still remembered that this young man with a calm face was able to report the files recorded by everyone under his rule one by one.

This unforgettable ability, even Fang Zhongjin has to sigh to himself.

When Fang Zhongjin was in Jinhua County, he couldn't judge whether the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion had made such a big move, and whether it was Xia Yuanji or the beggar gang who was plotting.

But after that, the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion really controlled the beggar gang in his hands, and sent the whole team to Shaolin like an abandoned child, just to let Fang Zhongjin take the opportunity to get out of trouble.

From this point of view alone, the trade-off of the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion is diametrically opposed to ordinary people, and it is very generous.

In his eyes, the beggars seemed to be tools that could be abandoned at any time for the sake of one person.

So when he was in Jinhua County, the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion deliberately created a conflict between Jinhua County and the beggars for the sake of this Xia Yuanji, which is not unreasonable.

The current owner of the Inhuman Pavilion has become a guy wielding Fang Tian's halberd in Fang Zhongjin's eyes, just to provoke a Xianzhi.

Ordinary people say that if the weight is light, he is using a heavy weapon in his hands, just to influence a certain person.

Including in order to let Ryan Bo accidentally eat poison, he even pinched Bai Suhang, the equally outstanding new champion, in the palm of his hand, and then slaughtered the entire Bai family.

No matter how talented Bai Suhang is, just because he is not in the eyes of the owner of the Inhuman Pavilion, he can be pinched to death casually.

At this moment, Ji Changan saw Fang Zhongjin writing and drawing on the paper, frowning and thinking hard.

He couldn't help but lean over to see what was written on the paper.

At first glance, he said "Huh" and said: "They are all people who have been reused by the emperor recently." ”

Ji Changan has not experienced Fang Zhongjin's adventures. He saw the names of the three people on the paper, and connected them in the most intuitive way.

When Fang Zhongjin heard this, his eyes lit up and said, "I asked you Xia Yuanji in the past, don't you know?"

Ji Changan frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "You asked me once before. I really didn't know much about him at the time. But recently, because of Xia Yuanji's outstanding government affairs, he was cherished by the emperor.

Not long ago, he was just promoted to the position of the servant of the ministry, and the speed of this promotion is unparalleled, and it was still rumored in Beijing a while ago. ”

When Fang Zhongjin heard this, he pinched Ji Changan's arm heavily and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier! Is he already in Beijing now?"

Ji Changan didn't care about the pain, and said: "When the edict was first issued, there was indeed a lot of discussion in Beijing.

Soon, though, someone with a faster ascension appeared. So everyone turned to the conversation in a blink of an eye. As for Xia Yuanji, after receiving the edict, he should have had three months to allow him to hand over the original affairs.

At this time, whether he has entered Beijing or not, he still needs to go to the Ministry of Officials to confirm. ”

Fang Zhongjin asked: "Who is the person who overshadowed him and promoted faster?"

Ji Changan glanced at Fang Zhongjin with a smile at this time, and pointed to the name of the third person on the paper with his big hand and said, "Isn't it Fang Zhongjin who was born out of thin air, directly issued an order to give officials, and became the envoy of Jinyi Wei?"
