Chapter 2687 County-wide pursuit

Zuo Xingyue had just become the King of Guangling County, which had only been three months.

Because the Tiansheng Empire was very strict, after he took office, he didn't have to worry about getting the officials of various cities to surrender. Those officials themselves came to pay homage and congratulate him.

When you come to visit, it is natural to give gifts.

Others, on the other hand, mostly gave gifts like treasures.

Xunyang City is located in a remote place and there is nothing good. Hu Wei changed his mind and brought his daughter Hu Xiuyan to Guangling City and gave her daughter to Zuo Xingyue.

Of course, just to be a concubine, not a wife.

Zuo Xingyue was from the royal family, so even if she could be his concubine, Hu Xiuyan would be filled with joy.

At that time, Zuo Xingyue had just arrived in Guangdu County and was lacking someone close to him. In addition, Hu Xiuyan was as beautiful as a flower and was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He took a liking to Hu Xiuyan at a glance and kept her by his side. .

Hu Xiuyan also knew how to please people, and she satisfied Zuo Xingyue in every aspect, and she did not go out of her way at all, which made Zuo Xingyue love her even more.

So in the past few days, Zuo Xingyue took the initiative to propose to Hu Xiuyan that she promote Hu Xiuyan's father, Hu Wei, to her side, or to become the city lord of the wealthy cities around Guangling City.

Hu Xiuyan was naturally happy about this, but she was very sensible and did not show it, and even helped her father refuse.

This made Zuo Xingyue feel that this woman knew how to measure things.

In his eyes, promoting Hu Wei was just a trivial matter, so when he heard the urgent report from Xunyang City, he mentioned the matter of promoting Hu Wei to Hu Xiuyan.

Hu Xiuyan smiled and did not answer. Refusing once was polite. If she declined twice, it would not give Zuo Xingyue face, and it was a bit fake.

The two of them walked to the door of the study, and the soldier quickly bowed and presented the spiritual ultimatum to Zuo Xingyue.

With a smile on her face, Zuo Xingyue didn't shy away from anyone. She directly injected the true essence into the spiritual ultimatum and started watching.

But after reading the contents of the spiritual ultimatum, his face changed. His eyes were full of coldness, and he thought to himself: "Not long after I became the king of Guangdu, someone actually killed the city lord, and it was me. My father-in-law in name only. Huh! You are so brave, you are just deliberately provoking me!"

Seeing that Zuo Xingyue looked wrong, Hu Xiuyan asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Zuo Xingyue was a little embarrassed, but still said: "Xiuyan, your father was killed."

"What!?"

Hu Xiuyan exclaimed. She originally thought that her father would be promoted, but when the bad news came, her body went limp and she was about to faint.

Zuo Xingyue supported him, and looking at Hu Xiuyan's weak and sad look, he felt even more angry. He asked the person who came to deliver the order: "Is there anyone coming from Xunyang City? I want to ask about the specific situation."

"Yes, just wait outside."

The soldier who delivered the order hurriedly said.

"Let him in."

Zuo Xingyue ordered to go down and helped Hu Xiuyan into the study.

Although he was domineering, he was still very gentle towards women. After helping Hu Xiuyan sit down, he said softly: "Xiuyan, don't worry, I will definitely find the murderer in this matter and help your father get justice."

"The prince..."

Hu Xiuyan was crying, her weak look made Zuo Xingyue pity her even more.

Soon, the people who came from Xunyang City were brought up.

"Tan Ronggui, the chief administrator of Xunyang City, pays homage to His Royal Highness!"

As soon as Tan Ronggui entered the study, he quickly knelt down and bowed in fear, not even daring to raise his head.

He was a high-ranking official in Xunyang City, but in front of the county king, he was just a minor role.

If Hu Wei hadn't died, he would never have had the chance to see the county king.

"Get up and tell me what happened."

Zuo Xingyue raised her hand and motioned for Tan Ronggui to stand up.

Tan Ronggui stood up quickly, but did not dare to stand up straight. He bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, the thing is like this. The Lord of the City has received news that there is a treasure in the Tianxia Valley outside Xunyang City. It is said to be a precious true treasure." Dragon's Eye. So he took his people and went to look for the Dragon's Eye. Who knows, he met a murderer and they were all killed."

Zuo Xingyue asked coldly: "Who did it?"

Tan Ronggui said: "Later, after investigation, we found the news in Quyang Town. The murderer's name is Chen Yang, and there is an accomplice named Li Ji."

The name Chen Yang did not attract Zuo Xingyue's special attention.

Because he had received a report from General Zhang that Chen Yang had been killed.

He believed that no matter how brave General Zhang was, he would not dare to lie to himself.

Therefore, when he heard Chen Yang's name at this moment, he didn't think much of it.

"Do you have portraits of those two people?"

Zuo Xingyue asked.

"When we were investigating in Quyang Town, we interviewed many people, and then combined their information to get the portraits of Chen Yang and Li Ji."

Tan Ronggui immediately took out the two portraits and held them up for Zuo Xingyue to see.

Of those two portraits, one is of Chen Yang and the other is of Li Ji.

However, after all, this is a drawing based on other people's narration, and it is not very similar, especially Chen Yang, who only has three images.

Li Ji's appearance, on the other hand, is a bit thin and wretched, and the portrait is eighty similar to him.

Zuo Xingyue just glanced at the portrait, and her eyes stayed on Chen Yang's portrait for a moment, then asked Tan Ronggui to put the portrait away, and shouted outside: "Let Xu Zongkun come in."

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing armor strode into the room.

This middle-aged man is in the middle stage of induction. He has a face with a Chinese character, a beard on his lips, and small eyes, giving him a sense of loyalty and sinisterness.

He followed Zuo Xingyue when he was very young and was responsible for protecting Zuo Xingyue's safety.

Later, Zuo Xingyue became stronger and stronger and no longer needed his protection, but she still took him with her and regarded him as her right-hand man.

Xu Zongkun lived up to Zuo Xingyue's expectations and did everything he asked him to do very well.

"Your Highness, please give me your instructions."

Xu Zongkun did not call Zuo Xingyue the prince, but his highness.

There is a difference. In the entire Prince's Palace, all those who can directly address Zuo Xingyue as His Highness are his confidants.

Even Hu Xiuyan, the person beside her, now dare not address him directly as His Highness, adding the word "County King" in front of him.

Zuo Xingyue pointed to the two portraits in Tan Ronggui's hands and said to Xu Zongkun: "These two people killed Hu Wei, the lord of Xunyang City. You should immediately arrange for the entire Guangdu County and all traffic arteries to fly empty ships." Point, set up a card to intercept them, and never let them go. These two people are not weak, they should be in the induction period. After you find them, go and take them down personally. "

"Yes, Your Highness."

Xu Zongkun took the order.

Zuo Xingyue took out a twelve-marked celestial weapon, the Yanyue Sword, and handed it to Xu Zongkun, saying: "Bring this sword with you, it can help you."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the sword!"

Xu Zongkun took the sword, turned and left.
