Chapter 465: Group Play at Old Zhu's House(1/2)

Lan Yu looked at Di Yusen in front of her with some interest, but her face was gloomy.

"I heard that you were investigating a murder case in the capital command room. Why did you come to me if you didn't investigate the case properly?"

"Or do you think this case has a lot to do with me?"

As soon as they met, Lan Yu put on an aggressive look.

Di Yusen bowed his hands and said: "I believe that the murder of the capital commander must have nothing to do with Duke Liang."

"With Duke Liang's power, even if he really has murderous intentions towards those commanders, there is no need to go to such trouble. It's just a matter of words."

"Moreover, I learned from the files that the commander-in-chief of Nadu, Wang Yue, was once an old general of Duke Liang. In the beginning, he was a personal guard of King Kaiping and had a very close relationship with Duke Liang."

"Anyone with any sense of reason will never think that Duke Liang has anything to do with this matter."

Hearing these words, Lan Yu burst into laughter.

"Okay, Di Yusen, what you said makes sense."

"Those people from Dali Temple think they can handle cases, but in fact they are just a bunch of idiots. As expected, it was His Highness Taisun who had a keen eye for talent and transferred you from Pingyang Mansion."

"I thought you were just lucky, but now it seems that you are indeed somewhat capable."

Di Yusen's words were obviously very helpful to Lan Yu, so the way Lan Yu looked at Di Yusen became a little more cordial.

The so-called mastery of human feelings is articles.

Di Yusen was able to hold the position of Dianshi as an official through his connections, so he was certainly not lacking in human connections and sophistication.

At least it has nothing to do with pedantry.

"Duke Liang, I'm sorry. I just told the truth. It's just that in this world, there are few smart people, but there are many stupid people. Therefore, many people will only be confused by some appearances and fail to see the essence of the matter.

"

"I came here just because I was wondering if I could get some clues from Duke Liang to find out the person behind this."

Having said this, Di Yusen smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest with Duke Liang, His Highness Taisun asked me to investigate this case, which really frightens me. I used to be just a small representative historian, but now I am favored by His Highness Taisun."

, with this official uniform."

"This is the first case His Highness Taisun has entrusted to me to investigate. If it is not handled beautifully enough, I am afraid that His Highness Taisun will never look down on his superiors again."

Hearing this, Lan Yu thought for a moment and then said: "Since His Highness Taisun personally asked you to participate in this, he obviously values ​​you and I also believe in your ability."

"It's just that this case involves a lot of things. If you dare to kill the messenger, you must have very strong power."

"Naturally, for His Highness Taisun, no matter how powerful the force is, it has no meaning. It can be destroyed with a snap of the finger. It's just that this person is hiding in the dark and is difficult to find."

"On my side, if you want to know anything, just ask. Wang Yue has been with me for many years, and he was at my side during the Northern Expedition. Now that he has been assassinated, I also want to get rid of the person behind this as soon as possible.

Find them out."

While listening to Lan Yu's words, Di Yusen carefully watched the expression on Lan Yu's face.

What he said before was just an excuse. Before the real culprit behind the scenes came to light, Lan Yu was the biggest suspect.

After listening to this, Di Yusen was sure that Lan Yu was indeed not the murderer behind the scenes. He had driven away the Minister of Dali Temple before, but it was just because of his personality.

After thinking for a while, he said: "When I went to do the autopsy, I found that all four commanders were poisoned by Gelsemium poison."

"This poison is not fatal, but after an hour or two, you will feel weak and have difficulty breathing, as if someone has strangled your neck."

"The official heard that the four commanders came to Duke Liang after they left the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion. I wonder if Duke Liang had arranged meals and drinks."

Having said this, Di Yusen also hurriedly explained: "I think it is possible that thieves sneaked into the kitchen of Liang Guogong's house, secretly poisoned him, and then followed him and killed him."

When Lan Yu heard this, she waved her hands and said, "It's absolutely impossible."

"While Mr. Japan was drinking in the palace, the king asked four people to come over and ask for help, but I did not agree."

"I originally planned to host a banquet, but after I refused, the four of them said goodbye and left. After all, they came to the capital without authorization at that time, so they planned to rush back overnight."

Hearing this, Di Yusen felt that it was a bit tricky, because the clue was immediately cut off when it came to Lan Yu.

As for whether Lan Yu lied, that was not within the scope of his consideration. After the file was handed in, Free Jin Yiwei would verify it.

Of course, a prince like Lan Yu is monitored by spies from the Jin Yiwei.

"I wonder if Mr. Liang Guo could tell me what the four Wang Yue wanted. They went to the capital without permission and asked Mr. Liang."

Di Yusen asked after thinking deeply.

Hearing this, Lan Yu did not reply directly.

Instead, he fell into deep thought.

Di Yusen also knew that Lan Yu was deciding whether to tell him or not.

After a long while, Lan Yu finally said: "This matter involves His Royal Highness, I don't want to tell you, but I also know that the purpose of Wang Yue and others coming to Beijing is quite critical to the case."

"The reason for this incident is due to preparations for war on the grassland next year. His Highness Taisun issued a decree, ordering the guards who will participate in the war next year to conduct shift drills among thousands of households."

"The capital commander himself is responsible for all transactions. Nowadays, thousands of households are changing shifts. There are a lot more details here, which makes some commanders feel reluctant. They are requesting Beijing to cancel the matter."

"The four of them came to beg me because they wanted me to request His Highness Taisun to withdraw the decree. Naturally, I would refuse such a thing."

"But who would have thought that under my persuasion, Wang Yue and others already knew that the matter had not changed, so they chose to go back and wait for arrangements. They never thought that something like this would happen."

Hearing this, Di Yusen was silent.

In this way, the scope of this matter is a bit broad.

From a matter of fact, almost most of the officials in the capital may be suspected, and now His Highness Taisun's position is stable. This man in the dark has extremely cunning ideas, and he just wants to use this matter to shake His Highness's status.

From Liang Guogong's visit, Di Yusen already knew what he wanted to know, so he naturally had no intention of staying any longer, so he left.

Start thinking of ways to find other clues.

...

In Kunning Palace.

Zhu Ying is listening to Zhang San's story.

Zhang San has been removed from his position since he violated his duties as the Jinyi Guard Qianhu last time.

Zhu Ying originally planned to let him go to Liaodong, but now that the grassland has changed, he can naturally stay with him and go there together.

After all, he has been following his confidant. Although he does not hold any specific official position, he does have hidden power.

Because Ye Yueqing is pregnant, Uncle Zhang has to be in charge of various factory affairs, so in terms of intelligence, Zhang San will be in charge for the time being.

"The source of the spread is now a bit complicated. The initial source started from various commercial banks. Because the case has a greater impact, it has now spread widely."

"However, we still caught a few suspects. They claimed that someone secretly gave them money, and according to what was written in the letter, they went to major restaurants in the capital to promote it."

"The source of it was also captured, but according to his account, others gave him money and asked him to distribute it everywhere."

"He was negotiating with that person late at night, so he couldn't see his face clearly. I have sent people to monitor him secretly."

"It's just that since the arrest, that person has never appeared again."

After listening, Zhu Ying nodded slightly.

Naturally, it was impossible for him to put all his hopes on Di Yusen. The Qunying Chamber of Commerce also tried its best to start a search.

However, due to the high mobility of the capital's population, many clues to follow began to be missing.

What Zhang San has told so far, Jin Yiwei has also made gains, and the general situation is similar. However, because the person being tracked has left the capital, it will take a certain amount of time to trace it.

As far as the current situation is concerned, because the matter has been fermented, it can be said that the secret hand behind the scenes has succeeded. In a short time, it is difficult to show signs of taking action.

So now, the case is in a stalemate.

"Next, regarding the case, you should put it aside for a while and focus on the various commanders in the capital, especially on some of their recent movements."

"Now, the shift change of Qianhu cannot be stopped, but you can use your own name to appease some commanders who have ulterior motives. If necessary, you can also accept some benefits, which will make them feel more at ease.

"

"I will pass the order later and let you be responsible for supervising the training of each commander."

Zhu Ying ordered.

In fact, although the murder of the four commanders provoked the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, the focus was still on the commanders in all aspects.

The other party's purpose is to separate people, but Zhu Ying only needs to temporarily calm the commander's heart, and that's all.

Once the commanders of each guard station stabilize, the other party's plan will naturally come to nothing.

Of course, he is unwilling to fail, so he will commit a second crime, and then there will naturally be more clues.

After listening to his boss's instructions, Zhang San showed some hesitation on his face.

"Why, I arranged for you to be a censor inspector, and you are not happy with this." Zhu Ying said teasingly.

Hearing this, Zhang San quickly raised his hands and bowed: "I don't dare to do this. It's just that even though I know some martial arts, I'm afraid I won't be able to do the job of investigating the guard station."

Zhu Ying said with a smile: "You guys are quite interesting. Others are eager to seek an official position, but I personally give it to you so that you can receive and receive benefits. It can be said that it is something that others have dreamed of for a long time."

"You refuse when the time comes."

"But it's just right for you to go. You are a close confidant of me. This is something everyone knows. It doesn't matter whether you understand it or not. Just go. Don't refuse the benefits given by others. You must accept them."
To be continued...
