Gu Shenwei identified Ju Guard as the murderer, which was the object of his suspicion on the first day, and was forced to give up because there was no evidence, Tie Hanfeng couldn't help but be disappointed, and felt that the apprentice had not kept his promise and was embarrassing himself.

"How dare you?" the Ju guard stepped forward and drew his scimitar in half.

The minister hurriedly stopped and turned to Zhong Heng, the commander of the city patrol, "Zhong Duwei, how can things be like this, this is an insult to Shiguo, I hope ......"

"I have proof. Gu Shenwei said loudly, attracting everyone's attention to himself again.

Zhong Heng was the only one with the same expression, "You might as well listen to what he has to say." ”

Gu Shenwei swept the people in the room again, his eyes fell on the second prince, and he ignored the angry Ju guard.

There are too many things that he just relies on guessing, and he is not sure how accurate he can be, everything depends on how His Royal Highness the prince in front of him reacts.

"I know where the Xu siblings are, and they can prove what I said. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and the city patrol captain and Tie Hanfeng mobilized a lot of manpower and couldn't find the person, but this young man claimed to know his whereabouts, in this case, why didn't he catch those two people early to exonerate himself?

"Do you know where they are?" The most surprised person is Tie Hanfeng, when he was still in Jinpeng Castle, he had already sent people to search in Nancheng, but so far to no avail, the apprentice is not familiar with life, how can he find a needle in the sea?

Gu Shenwei still looked at the second prince, observing every subtle movement and change in his expression, and said at the same time: "Lord Duwei, please instruct someone to investigate the east and west gates, whether there were nobles from the Shi Kingdom entering the city the day before yesterday, and whether these two 'nobles' live around the palace, or even live in the palace." ”

"Listen to his nonsense! Your Highness, please allow me to kill him to avenge the eldest prince. ”

The guard drew his entire scimitar, and the minister jumped to the side in fright, still shaking his hand and admonishing, "Don't do this, alas, things shouldn't be like this......

Gu Shenwei only stared at the second prince and concentrated all his will, if he was right, he didn't have to wait for Zhong Heng to send someone, and the second prince should react.

Zhong Heng was also a little restless, he guessed the young man's intentions, but he didn't want to get involved, "Uh, this, it's ...... at this time"

"I'll send someone. Tie Hanfeng stood up, "At most, it will take half an hour to find out, if my apprentice deceives someone, I will personally cut off his head." ”

Tie Hanfeng limped towards the door, Gu Shenwei didn't look at the master, and stared at the sick young man on the main seat with all his might.

"Wait. ”

The second prince finally spoke, and Gu Shenwei's heart fluttered high, but his face was silent.

"Your Highness!" the Ju guard looked at the second prince in surprise, and the scimitar hung down.

"Listen to what he has to say, and it's not too late to find someone if it makes sense. ”

Tie Hanfeng stopped, but did not return to his seat, but stood behind the apprentice, as if he was going to find out the Xu brothers and sisters at any time.

Gu Shenwei knew that the next words were very important, to say it irrefutably, and not to show his weakness, he had thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't have much certainty.

"Here's the thing, Ju Guard doesn't want to return to China, he wants to stay in Biyu City and kill the eldest prince, so he can stay in the name of guarding the tomb. ”

"Nonsense!" the Ju guard raised his scimitar again.

Tie Hanfeng stepped forward to protect his apprentice, but the second prince had already raised his hand to stop the guard, "Let him finish." ”

"Two prostitutes in Liuren Lane, please forgive the little slave for being rude, they are favored by the eldest prince, and the Ju guards naturally see the two of them, he likes one of them, that is, Xu Yanwei, half of the Ju guards take the surname, call themselves 'Mi Gongzi', and also become Xu Yanwei's guests. ”

"Nonsense. The Ju guard retorted again, but his voice was not loud, and no one stopped him.

"The Xu sisters and brothers were unbearable to be abused by their biological father, and they had the idea of killing their father, so they naturally discussed with 'Mi Gongzi' first, and 'Mi Gongzi' didn't want to participate, so they persuaded them to invite a killer, but in fact, they had other plans. He knew all the plans of the Xu sisters and brothers, and he also knew that the eldest prince had just borrowed a large amount of silver from the Big-bellied Buddha, and he wanted to have both people and money. The next thing is that Xu Xiaoyi invited me, I killed the Big Belly Buddha and his bodyguard, and 'Mi Gongzi' killed the eldest prince, and then immediately transferred the silver and the Xu siblings, took out the Shiguo Guan Wen, and let the two of them enter the north city from the main gate generously. But this matter was known to another prostitute, and in the early hours of yesterday morning, 'Mi Gongzi' killed another person. I think the second prince will remember that on the morning of the eldest prince's death, the Ju guard was not in the palace, and he was not there in the early hours of yesterday morning, and if you check the seal brought by this lord again, you will find that it has been used. ”

There was silence in the hall, and the story told by the young man was vivid, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, but he didn't show any solid evidence, unless the Xu brothers and sisters were really caught nearby, his words were still not worth it.

The minister approached the second prince and whispered, "Your Highness, you don't have to ......"

The second prince waved his hand to the minister to stop his voice, and whispered to Ju Guard, "Ju Zhan, you have done such a rebellious thing, have you never thought about the family, the old and the young, the wife and the children? ”

"Your Highness......" The Ju guard's voice trembled, and he glanced at the scimitar in his hand, "Please forgive the villain's wife and children, they are innocent." ”

Things took a turn for the worse, and the Ju guard actually confessed to the crime, he raised his scimitar, as if he was about to cut himself, but suddenly his eyes widened in anger, he jumped high, and slashed at the defenseless Gu Shenwei.

Gu Shenwei could dodge the attack, but Master Tie Hanfeng shot much faster than him, and he also jumped high to meet the Ju guard, the two staggered, each fell, Tie Hanfeng had an extra scimitar in his hand, and the Ju guard's hand was empty, and the head rolled to the minister's feet.

The minister almost fainted, but fortunately he was held back by the second prince's entourage on the horse, so as not to fall in public.

Tie Hanfeng put down his scimitar, bowed down and said, "Please forgive Your Highness for being reckless." ”

"It's bothering you to hide the ugliness of the country. ”

The second prince still looked indifferent, blood and tragedy didn't seem to be able to touch his heart, he got up and walked out the door, stopping as he passed by the killer apprentice, "What about the brother and sister, are they also the accomplices of the Ju guard?"

"No, they just want to kill the big-bellied Buddha and be used by others. ”

"Oh, then they're still guilty. ”

"No, they are not guilty, the pot-bellied Buddha deserves to die, the person who killed him is me, not them. ”

The second prince suddenly looked angry, "Whatever you want." He strode away with his retinue.

There were too many accidents that made the minister anxious, but he still did his duty, properly thanked him, and sent the three guests away.

Zhong Heng sent the master and apprentice to the North City Gate, and he and Tie Hanfeng were polite to each other for a while, "Brother Hanfeng, you have a good apprentice, the solution of this matter is even better than I imagined, at least, this has become Shi Guo's own family ugly, no matter what, they will not be capricious after returning to China." ”

Tie Hanfeng grinned, that smile was real, not his usual disguise, "Ha, Lord Zhong has won the award, if there is no help from Lord Zhong, what can he do as a child?"

Zhong Heng turned to Gu Shenwei, "You are from the Central Plains, right?"

"Yes, but since I was a child, I was sold to the Western Regions and transferred to Jinpeng Castle. ”

"The boy is promising, and I hope to see him again in the future. ”

Zhong Heng said goodbye and left, and Gu Shenwei stopped him again, "Lord Zhong!"

"Do you have something to say?"

"The Xu family sisters and brothers are innocent, right?"

Zhong Feng smiled, "Those who killed people in the south city are not guilty in the north city." ”

The master and apprentice took back the horses and narrow knives stored at the city gate, and led the horses up the mountain in the night, Tie Hanfeng's smile was gone, "Good boy, you hide it from me so hard." ”

"The disciple didn't dare to hide it from the master, but I wasn't very sure about this matter, and I didn't want to affect others. ”

"Why didn't you find out the Xu family siblings earlier?"

"Wouldn't it be more of a problem if they talk too much? ”

Tie Hanfeng was stunned for a moment, shook his head, and then couldn't help but show a few smiles on his face, scolded a few words, and said seriously, "You know that the guard can't be rich enough to be Xu Yanwei's guest, right?"

"I know, but it was he who killed the eldest prince, so he is the 'real murderer'. ”

"How did you figure it all out? To be honest, I know who killed the eldest prince, but I can't think of the details. ”

"When I solve the whole thing as a problem, everything is very simple, the details don't matter, and the truth doesn't matter. ”

Tie Hanfeng looked at his apprentice sideways, and said for a long time, "From now on, I will be impressed by you." ”

Gu Shenwei was grateful to Zhong Heng, the commander of the city patrol, although this person had a different purpose, but the way he taught him to observe things was useful for life.

In his mind, there is another version of the death of the eldest prince, a version closer to the truth:

The real "Mi Gongzi" is not Ju Guard, but the second prince, he wants to usurp the throne, and he also wants to take away his brother's woman, he may really like Xu Yanwei, but after being seen through, he immediately wants to kill people, which shows that he is a real royal family and is worthy of the throne that is about to be held.

Ju Escort worked for the two princes one after another, probably because he didn't want to return to his homeland as a humble guard, he wanted to stay in Biyu City with his wife and children, and also sacrificed himself for his wife and children, acting as a scapegoat for the new master.

The first time they met, Ju Guard was overly angry and showed that he had betrayed him, and in fact, he shouldn't have shown up.

The minister, even if he was kept in the dark on the first day, later learned the truth, he had no choice, and perhaps he was glad that a desolate king had died.

The matter is over, Gu Shenwei doesn't plan to think about it anymore, he only hopes that the Xu sisters and brothers can escape.

Back to the stone castle, Gu Shenwei felt cordial, but the matter did not end completely as he expected, the prince of Shi was no longer a problem, but the pot-bellied Buddha was not a person who could be killed casually, he was the servant of the Meng family in Beicheng, and there was still a lack of an explanation for this matter.

The good news is that after the patrol found the Xu sisters and brothers, and got back the gold and silver that Meng had lent to the eldest prince, they found that there were two copies of the loan notes, and the big-bellied Buddha concealed them at both ends, and he was greedy a lot from them, which made the Meng family's anger at the ignorant apprentice of Jinpeng Fort lessened a little.

Gu Shenwei was sentenced to ten days of confinement in Dongbao, and then demoted to the White Clothes Courtyard as a lowly servant, and when he went to Biyu South City a month later, he found that the private "business" was still unfinished.
