Chapter 1155: Crisis in the Royal City

About an hour later, Hong Jifeng hurried to the scene of the incident just now......

"This is-" Hong Jifeng couldn't believe the scene in front of him at all, and couldn't help but exclaimed-the fire of the armament station was burning, black smoke was billowing into the sky, and there were corpses lying all over the empty field, including Mengyuan officers and soldiers, as well as "Mingfujiao" believers.

Luo Zhuang and his entourage have seen the disciples of the "Mingfu Sect", Hong Jifeng can recognize them at a glance, and this time it also confirms the previous rumors, the riots in the west of the city are indeed a good thing done by the "Mingfu Sect". It's just that Hong Jifeng never imagined that the matter would be so big, not only did he set fire to the imperial court's military station, but even had a bloody conflict, which was undoubtedly a huge threat to the Mengyuan court.

"These are really all done by the 'Ming Fu Sect'......" Hong Jifeng looked at the "tragic situation" in front of him and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that it is really as rumored that the disaster five years ago will befall the entire capital again? And the scale of this time is probably even more serious than the one five years ago......

failed to prevent all this from happening, and the only thing Hong Jifeng could do was to do everything possible to treat the surviving injured. It is a pity that at present, the officers and soldiers have all died, and the corpses are reflected in the raging fire, which is very miserable, and it is futile to do anything now if they fail to save people's lives.

Hong Jifeng carried the medicine box on his back, tiptoeing between the remains of the soldiers, thinking about it, there was no one alive, and he couldn't help but wonder: "It's really strange, the two sides of the conflict are obviously the people of the imperial court and the 'Ming Fujiao', even if they are both defeated, why is there no one alive, there must be a winner...... If it was the people of the imperial court who won, it would be impossible to just go away and put out the fire in such an important place as the armament station; if it was the people of the 'Ming Fu Sect', why not clean up the corpses at the scene, especially the disciples they taught...... Could it be that in addition to the imperial court and the people of the 'Ming Fu Sect', there are also outsiders mixed in?"

Hong Jifeng seemed to have found something suspicious, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, and carefully squatted down to look at the condition of the corpse, trying to find some clues from it. However, the moment he touched the corpse, he almost didn't scare himself.

"Good ice!" The moment Hong Jifeng touched the body, a piercing coldness spread to the whole body - the deceased seemed to have been dead for a long time, and the body had no temperature at all, logically speaking, not long after the riot and bloodshed, the corpse was aged under such a fire, the body should not be so cold, Hong Jifeng couldn't help but say in horror, "What the hell is going on, why is the corpse so cold...... Obviously, the way they died was very abnormal, and it was by no means as simple as killing each other with ordinary bayonets!"

Hong Jifeng felt more and more that something was wrong, so he simply turned over the corpses of several "Mingfu Sect" disciples and carefully observed the situation.

"There are no obvious corpse spots, obviously just died...... Hong Jifeng, who is experienced, is not only good at saving people and curing diseases, but also a good hand at observing the condition of the corpse, figuring out the condition of the corpse, and muttered secretly, "Since he just died, it is too abnormal for the corpse to be so cold...... And unlike the bodies of those officers and soldiers who still have residual warmth, the death of these 'Mingfu Sect' disciples is very strange, no wounds were found on their bodies, their faces are blank, and the blood is dull, as if they have been sucked dry......"

Indeed, the dead "Mingfu Sect" followers were not only cold, but also did not have any fatal wounds on their bodies, and their skin was cold and dark. In this way, there is only one possibility, and Hong Jifeng couldn't help but have a thought in his heart: there was an inexplicable master, who was mixed with it for some reason, and killed the people of the "Mingfu Sect" with unknown and cruel methods.

"The death is not normal, and there are wounds on the body...... Wait a minute—" Hong Jifeng seemed to suddenly think of something, and couldn't help but refresh himself, "I remember this situation, it seems to have happened, a month or two ago, the virtuous nephew mentioned it......"

Hong Jifeng couldn't help but recall the strange things he had mentioned in the days when he had just returned from Luozhuang......

(in recall)......

Dozens of days ago, the fourth day after returning from Luozhuang......

The day was still the same as usual, as the day went west, and everyone in the dart game did their duty, and after a busy day, they prepared to rest for dinner. Except for Qi Xueyin, who has a pungent temperament, she always has to shout a few words before dinner, and everyone else is quite leisurely. Hong Jifeng is the same, every day from time to time to help the cuckoo to see the recovery of his legs and feet, the rest of the time, he drinks tea in the yard......

"I'm back—" Sun Yun's voice sounded outside the gate—unlike the others, Sun Yun always had to go to Yamen and other places these days to investigate the case of the murder of the patrol officers and soldiers a few days ago as the second son of Chatai.

"You're back, how is the investigation going?" Ren Guang, who was the first to mention this matter, saw it and stepped forward to ask.

"It's still the same as before, there is no progress...... Sun Yun sighed, pulled his sore arm and said, "The people from the yamen said that there was not even a single scar on the corpse, and there was no way to find it, let alone guess the identity of the murderer. According to the confessions of Ah Guang and the nearby residents, before the incident, there was indeed a scream at the place where the crime occurred, but it was completely incompatible with the inexplicable cause of death of the deceased, so it fell into a mystery......"

"Does no one know the cause of death?" what did the autopsy say......" Ren Guang continued.

"They said that they had never encountered such a situation, guessing whether it would be an inexplicable martial arts master, and laughed that those of us who have experience in the rivers and lakes may be more reliable than them......" Sun Yun also made a leisurely expression, jumped down the steps of the gate, walked into the courtyard and said, "Anyway, this matter has alarmed the imperial court, after all, it involves the death of officers and soldiers, I am afraid that it will be frightening, the yamen side has not been able to solve the case for a long time, and the upper side is constantly pressuring, they are under a lot of pressure now......"

"Quite experienced in the rivers and lakes?" Ren Guang seemed to think of something, turned his head and said in the direction of Hong Jifeng, who was drinking tea, "You can ask Senior Hong, maybe he can know something......

"Uncle Hong is a doctor who saves people and heals diseases, and he is not a coroner, isn't it a bit rude to ask him like this......" Sun Yun, as a nephew, was afraid that it would be rude to ask such a question, so he simply whispered deliberately.

"What are you talking about, it seems that the old man was mentioned just now?" However, Hong Jifeng still seemed to hear it, put down the teacup and approached and asked.

"I ......" Sun Yun was still hesitating to say or not, and he didn't say anything.

"Really, what don't you dare to say...... Ren Guang didn't care, and said bluntly, "It's like this Senior Hong, today the young master went to investigate the murder of the patrol officers and soldiers, and found that the body of the deceased looked strange and there was no fatal wound...... The problem is that we, the first discoverers, did hear the screams at the time of the incident, and when it was found that it was not poisoning, we could not find the cause of death in such a short period of time...... The people in the yamen said that it might be the martial arts master, so I want to ask Senior Hong, who is good at medical skills, if you know something......

Sun Yun saw that Ren Guang had said everything, so he could only laugh stupidly on the side.

"Hmph, don't say it, in addition to treating diseases and saving people, the old man will indeed examine corpses......" Hong Jifeng first laughed and teased, and then said seriously, "But if there is no fatal injury, it is not poisoning, and it will kill people in a short period of time, ordinary people will definitely not be able to do it...... It cannot be ruled out that as the people in the yamen guessed, it was done by martial arts masters. However, similar to these martial arts are not poisonous attacks, and the old man has more than ten years of experience, and he has not heard of it. Unless the old man has the opportunity to see the body with his own eyes, maybe he will know something......"

From this point of view, relying on his mouth alone, even Hong Jifeng, who has a deep resume, can't feel one or two, Sun Yun couldn't help but sigh to himself on the side: "Hey, I'll just say, it's useless to ask...... Anyway, it's a bit big......"

"Ah, then do you want to blame me and Ah Song, the first witnesses to the crime......" Ren Guang couldn't help but glance and muttered......

(In reality)......

"From this point of view, the appearance of today's corpse is quite similar to what the virtuous nephew said that day...... The corpse was cold, no fatal injuries, and it was not poisoned......" Hong Jifeng remembered the mention of that day, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, "Maybe it was the same murderer who committed all this......"

The case began to clear the fog, Hong Jifeng wanted to continue the investigation, but not far away there was a vibrating footsteps - a large group of people and horses were approaching here.

"Oops, someone is coming...... Hong Jifeng was secretly shocked, thinking that he could only leave here for the time being......

At this moment, the Chatai Palace......

The two-day riot shocked the entire imperial city, and it was determined that it was the "Ming Fu Sect" believers, and the imperial court immediately ordered the Chatai family to ban the whole city from the army to suppress the rebellion and riot of the "Ming Fu Sect". However, the momentum of the "Ming Fujiao" sect exceeded expectations, and the confrontation between the forbidden troops in the capital was unfavorable, and the imperial court ordered the Chatai family to lead troops to drag the enemy at the same time, and also sent people to guard the border pass to the west, sending reinforcements to support Dadu - it can be seen that the entire royal city has reached a precarious point.

As for the Chatai family, Chatai Doldun, who suppressed this matter five years ago, was injured and had no right to hold the position, Chatai Yun (Sun Yun) disappeared and his whereabouts are unknown, and Chatai Kortai was only high and had no experience in leading troops.

But it is conceivable that now the court is scarce of good ministers, and the good generals are all outside the pass to resist Zhu Yuanzhang's Northern Expedition, and the entire imperial court still needs a seriously ill and dying person to take the first place......

"Ahem...... cough cough ...... "When the king of Chatai put on his armor and rode on his war horse, he still coughed and didn't listen, and even before leading the troops to go out, there was a doctor on the side to feed the medicine.

The children of the Chatai family were not at ease, and Chatai Dordun and Chatai Lado came to see them off, and his wife, Duri Banzana, who had an entanglement with him, was also there, standing quietly in the distance, without saying a word. Strangely, there is no trace of Chatai Kortai everywhere, and I don't know where others are at this time and what they are doing......

"Father, you must take care of your body...... "As a daughter, Chadai Lado continued to care on the side, "The people of the 'Mingfu Sect' are extremely vicious, father, you must not fight hard......"

"Don't worry, Radau, my father will be fine...... cough cough ...... "King Chatai endured the pain, but he still tried not to let his children worry too much.

Tsatorai Dorton came in a wheelchair, as if he had something to say to his father alone, and after Lado left, Dolton whispered: "The grievances that were unfinished five years ago seem to be repeated today...... Because of the fall of power, the forces that were once suppressed by me and my master have revived, if it weren't for my current disability in my legs......" As he spoke, Chatai Dordun looked at his broken feet, obviously feeling unwilling.

"Now is not the time to say something discouraged...... cough cough...... "King Chatai took the sick room, and did not forget to encourage Dolton, "What should come will always come, and you can't hide...... Doldun, during my absence, except to take care of yourself...... Ahem...... I also need to inquire about Yun'er's whereabouts as soon as possible...... Now in the entire Chatai family, only he has returned...... Ahem...... In order to have the hope of reviving the family, cough cough ......"

"I know my father, I will send someone to continue to inquire about his whereabouts, father, you should pay more attention to your body when you are outside......" Chatai Dordun finally agreed to comfort - it seems that Sun Yun's disappearance, the people of the Chatai family also know everything, and the Chatai King still firmly believes that Sun Yun can come back and protect the entire Chatai family......

On the other hand, instead of seeing off his father, Chatai Kortai was stuffed in his study, as if he was planning something.

A letter was secretly sent back from outside, and it was delivered to Koltai early this morning......

"That woman has come to the news, found the whereabouts of Sun Yun and the others, and appeared in the area of Kurong Town......" Chatai Kortai held the secret letter in his hand and said to his messenger guards, "They said that they are planning to get rid of Sun Yun and the people who came to the dart bureau, but they need to spend a little more time ......"

"What should we do now, then?" the guard whispered.

"Send me a letter back to inform me about everything that happened in Dadu and about the 'Ming Fu Sect'......" Chatai Kortai continued, "I will now put the overall situation first, and suppress the 'Ming Fu Sect' with the imperial court, and I will not be able to send reinforcements to help her ...... at present."

"Yes, Childe ......" After the guard answered the order, he prepared to turn and leave.

"Wait-" However, Chatai Kortai seemed to have a problem, and continued to ask, "Last time, you sent someone to investigate the matter of Qingmo Villa, did you investigate clearly?"

"The investigation is clear......," the guard cautiously reported, "Qingmo Villa has been burned down, and now it is occupied by a group of unknown people, and it is not known whether the owner Fang Zhenshi is alive or dead...... The situation is tense on this side of the court, so I don't have time to take care of that side for the time being, and I don't even know the news......"

"In this way, it seems that this is also a good thing that woman did......" Chatai Kortai couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "No wonder she wrote 'Yu Dang' in the letter, in this way, Fang Zhenshi Fang Zhuang should still be alive, in addition to the people who came to the Dart Bureau, that woman is still searching for people from Qingmo Villa everywhere, right...... Hmph, it's a lot of fun now......"

Chatai Koltai's expression became darker, as if a conspiratorial plan was brewing in his heart......
