Demoness, Where Are You Fleeing To?
Chapter 140 Cruel Dad
"It's Situ Zhong!"
After seeing the purple-clad chief approaching from the opposite side, Peng Fulai also narrowed his eyes.
He first glanced at Luo Yan, who was riding alongside them a few steps away, and then whispered in Li Xuan's ear: "This guy was also transferred to the palace a few days ago by the Internal Affairs Supervisor to participate in Treasure house theft.”
Li Xuan looked puzzled: "Internal arrest of the Supervisor? Didn't you say that this guy's background is that he is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment in Nanjing?"
Not long after the Lanyue Tower case occurred, he asked Peng Fulai to investigate Situ Zhong's background and followed him for more than a month.
Li Xuan had always suspected that the purple-clad chief was at Lanyue Tower that day and was deliberately targeting him, and there was probably someone behind his back.
The murder that occurred in the Zhendong Hou Mansion yesterday further confirmed his suspicion. The case in Lanyue Tower was no coincidence.
In Li Xuan's opinion, the Internal Affairs Supervisor should be an organization similar to Dongchang in the Jin Dynasty. As can be seen from the name, the full name of Dongchang is Dongjishi Factory, which is only two words different from the name of Dongjishi Supervisor. The internal police supervisor also has an abbreviation, called internal factory, or internal supervisor.
"It's true that he is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment in Nanjing, and he is a confidant of the Minister placed in Yingtian Mansion. But how this person got involved with the Internal Police Supervisor, I don't know."
Peng Fulai shook his head: "It is probably because there is a shortage of internal investigation supervisors. You know, the focus of internal investigation supervisors is in the north. There are only two or three kittens here in Nanjing, a bunch of crooked melons and cracked dates, which will not help at all. If I were the eunuch guarding Nanjing, I would also have a headache now."
"Um~" At this time, Le Qianqian timidly interjected: "Are you talking about Situ Zhong's heel? He is not only the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment in Nanjing, but also a relative of the left deputy capital censor Xi Ying. And Xi Ying was in Beijing a few years ago and got very close to Qin Mingyu, the Nanjing garrison eunuch who was still serving as the eunuch of etiquette at that time."
Peng Fulai couldn't help but glance sideways at this person, with a look of surprise on his face. He spent a lot of resources to investigate Situ Zhong's heel, but he failed to find out the relationship behind Situ Zhong.
Li Xuan also looked at Le Qianqian with surprise in his eyes. I thought to myself that this was indeed his humanoid Baidu, and he even knew about such things.
"I just happen to know." Le Qianqian blushed slightly when they looked at them: "I have basically read the files and official documents of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple and the Internal Affairs Supervisor in recent years, and I can guess what they are doing. The relationship between them. Xi Ying and Qin Mingyu are friends, and they look after each other, but the Minister of Punishment in Nanjing is aloof from them."
"Xi Ying?"
Li Xuan thought to himself that the Zuo Fudu Censor was also involved with the remnants of the Maitreya Cult? Could it be that their family had rescued the Zuo Fudu Censor several times and really raised a bad wolf that would bite him?
He remembered that this person was still an official of James's house and had something to do with the prince.
He thought for a moment, then stirred up the reins and headed in the direction of Situ Zhong: "Let's go meet this man."
He had originally been thinking about looking for this person's bad luck in the past few days, but unexpectedly he ran into it today.
Zhang Yue couldn't help but get excited and said, "Are you going to fight with them?"
He suffered a loss at the hands of Situ Zhong last time and has always held a grudge in his heart. Now that he has made great progress in cultivation, he naturally wants to avenge his past humiliation.
"This is in front of the Hongwu Gate. Do you want to get slapped?" Peng Fulai rolled his eyes at his friend: "Once you are impeached by the imperial censor, your father will not be able to protect you. At that time, thirty big sticks were light."
But then his face darkened again, thinking that there was still a high possibility of a fight today.
Just because Situ Zhong was also looking at them, his eyes were cold, like a ferocious beast glaring at its prey. The several subordinates next to him who were also wearing headhunting attire also held weapons in their hands and had cold expressions on their faces.
But just when the two groups were about to meet at the door, the side door of Hongwu Gate suddenly opened. A group of knights in bright clothes and angry horses galloped out from the door, followed closely by a full set of ceremonial guards for the eldest princess.
Li Xuan could only rein in his mount and stop outside the royal road to wait.
However, when the princess's chariot passed in front of them, the phoenix chariot slowly stopped, and the curtains were opened, revealing Princess Changle's pretty face with a hint of joy inside.
"The people from the Six Daosi Division told me yesterday that I should consider it carefully. They said that Li Youjiao's injury leave is still five days away. If we really wait until then, we may miss the opportunity to detect the case. I am thinking This is indeed a bit unkind, but I didn’t expect you to be here today, Li Youjiu.”
Princess Changle looked at Li Xuan up and down, with admiration in her eyes: "Is Li Youjiu ready to take over the case?"
"Exactly!" Li Xuan saluted with enthusiasm: "How dare Li Xuan not take Her Highness's entrustment to heart?"
"Li Youjiu is interested." Princess Changle nodded slightly, then took out a small dark gold token from her sleeve and sent it to Li Xuan's hand: "This is the palace that I have prepared for you. Card, within this month, Li Youjiu, you can come in and out of the palace at will. In addition, all the people in the palace will also provide you with convenience. Also, Myolie, go and get a nourishing pill that the imperial prison paid tribute to yesterday. Bring the bottle and give it to Li Youjiu."
Li Xuan immediately raised his eyebrows slightly: "Your Highness's kind intention, Li Xuan is ashamed to accept it."
He thought that it would be much more convenient if he had the palace cards. Although the Liudaosi's talisman cards and documents could be entered and exited the palace, they would have to be subject to heavy scrutiny and identity verification, which was very troublesome.
What is even more gratifying is the bottle of 'Shen Yang Dan'. Although this is not as good as the Six Daoist Yuan Dan, it is a rare medicine that can strengthen the soul and increase the soul. It is also very popular on the market in Dajin. rare.
The growth of his soul will be beneficial to his future cultivation, and will ultimately be beneficial to his longevity.
"What did Li Youjiao say? I should feel sorry for you and let you, Li Youjiao, take care of my affairs while you are recuperating."
Princess Changle was also slightly apologetic: "I'll leave this case to Li Youxiu. I have to rush to the city gate to meet Yunrou. I asked her to take me to Qixia Mountain for fun. I will be there in the past few days. If Li Youji encounters any difficulties while investigating the case, just ask someone to go to Qixia Temple and inform me."
"I understand!" Li Xuan clasped his fists again: "Princess, please do as you please!"
When Princess Changle lowered the curtains and the coachman in front started the phoenix chariot again, Li Xuan looked in the direction where Situ Zhong and others were originally standing, but he saw nothing. The purple-robed chief had already entered the palace from the other side while he was talking to Princess Changle.
"You didn't see the way Situ Zhong looked at you when he entered the palace just now." Peng Fulai said loudly: "His look was like he wanted to eat you alive. Li Xuan, how did you offend this guy?"
"How do I know? You're the one who's keeping an eye on Situ Zhong, and you still ask me?" Li Xuan also found it strange. The victim of Lan Yue Lou was obviously him. I haven't done anything to this guy yet, but the way Situ Zhong looked at him just now was like looking at the enemy who killed his father.
"I can guess a bit." Le Qianqian weakly interjected again: "Just half a month ago, a member of the Ministry of Punishment impeached Ying Tianfu for appointing a traitor, and also cited Situ Zhong for corruption, accepting bribes, and bending the law. There are more than ten crimes including killing people, and there are all witnesses and material evidence. Therefore, the imperial court has issued a document to Cui Chengyou, the Southern Zhili Supervisor, ordering him to thoroughly investigate the case. However, now that Cui Yushi's mother has died, Ding You is needed, and it is estimated that he will have to wait for the next supervisor. It can only be handled when the censor takes office."
She looked at Li Xuan again and hesitated for a moment: "This person from the Ministry of Punishment may have something to do with Mr. Cheng Yibo."
Several people present were stunned and looked at each other speechlessly.
After a long time, Zhang Yuecai exclaimed in surprise: "It turned out to be my uncle who took action. I said, I really didn't see it. My uncle is usually kind and gentle, but I didn't expect him to be so ruthless when he took action."
Li Xuan also secretly praised Li Chengji. His father was so silent that he gave him the bad breath that day.
Judging from the time, Li Chengji should have started planning more than a month ago after the Lanyue Tower case - this was simply revenge that didn't last overnight, and directly stepped Situ Zhong into the mud.
Thinking of this, Li Xuan felt guilty for his previous act of harming Li Chengji in front of his mother. He was really unworthy of a human being and had no conscience.
Next time, unless absolutely necessary, don't cheat like this again.
※※※※
With the talisman given by Princess Changle, they were able to move freely in the palace. An internal official on duty at the gate also took the initiative to send someone to lead the way, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net took them to the imperial treasury located in the northeast corner of Miyagi City.
As described in the dossier, there is only a ruin here. At a glance, it is all broken buildings and tiles.
According to the documents handed over by Si Tiandu and Huo Quedu, after the Purple Butterfly Witch succeeded and left that night, a huge purple fire ignited here. The guarding eunuch stationed in the palace used nearly half of his manpower and called in many magicians to help, but they were unable to suppress the flames. The fire almost spread and burned the surrounding buildings.
It wasn't until more than half an hour later that the treasure house was burned to the ground. The purple fire's power weakened, and several magicians worked together to extinguish it.
Li Xuan took a few cursory glances around, and then asked the military attache guarding here: "Has anyone moved at this scene since the incident?"
"Absolutely not!" That was a Deputy Qianhu in the palace. Although he was a fifth-rank official, he was respectful in front of Li Xuan: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince and Eunuch Qin both personally confessed that before the case was solved, , everything here needs to remain as it is. The general and others will not dare to slack off. In recent days, except for those who are handling the case, other people are not allowed to come within ten feet of this place. But - "
The deputy Qianhu said for a moment: "It has rained twice in the past few days, and the rain was not light. The situation here is very different from the day of the incident. For example, the wall on my left was fine seven days ago. But it collapsed that night after the rain.”
