Chapter 291 Story under the Night

The autumn sunset is less brilliant and more gentle.

Its glory is already very cold.

The atmosphere in the Imperial City Department at this moment was even colder than the sunset blocked by the lush branches and leaves of the Big Leaf Banyan!

A commander Zheng Wang bowed in front of Changsun Jinghong with a pale face. He held the body in the coffin placed on the ground. After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "I am dereliction of duty, please punish me!"

Changsun Jinghong didn't say anything.

It has been a stick of incense since Zheng Wang sent Miao's body to the autumnal equinox.

He didn't say a word.

No questioning.

He just kept going.

His face was covered in frost.

The last ray of light of the setting sun disappeared in the sky, and the curtain of the night slowly pulled over.

Shang Xunfang, the commander of the second place, silently lit the angrily wind lamp hanging on the tree, and then he saw Mr. Changsun suddenly let out a sigh.

Changsun Jinghong finally looked away. He looked at the darkening night and the dim lights came again.

He turned around and sat on the chair, counted silently, and then asked, "In other words, Xi Wei, just under your nose, ran away as if he was old?"

Zheng Wang still bent, "Sir, that's exactly what it is!"

He did not shirk the blame at all. He had many reasons, but he did not say anything.

Because it would be useless to say it, Xi Wei is indeed gone.

The information that Miao Qiu Equin finally sent back was the best opportunity to discover who Xi Wei was.

But this opportunity was wasted by my carelessness.

Not only was it a great opportunity, it also caused the Autumn Equinox to die...

Zheng Wang's heart was ashamed of shame.

"In this way, our Imperial City Department is not just an iron barrel."

Changsun Jinghong stroked his long beard and said, "No one knows Lao Miao's identity except you are the chief commanders!"

"You guys go down and let me accompany Lao Miao again."

Zheng Wang bowed and bowed: "Sir, my subordinates will definitely capture the spy for Mr. Miao to bury him!"

"Well... I'll wait until the deputy master comes back and listen to what he will do about this."

"...I obey the order!"

...

...

It was already the end of Xu when Li Chenan and Wang Zheng Jinzhong returned to the Imperial City Department.

The Imperial City Department in the middle of the night is more like a Hall of Yama.

The lights in the small courtyards and pavilions are still on, but no sound is heard. There are occasionally people walking with lights on the trail, and their footsteps fall silently.

On the black night, people in black clothes walked on the black road, and there was a floating lonely lamp.

Li Chenan felt that this place was colder than the valley in Xishan.

Especially when he saw Changsun Jinghong's side again, he even felt his hair standing up.

Of course, Changsun Jinghong would not put such a coffin for no reason. So, with the dim light, he saw the body of the old man in black lying in the coffin.

At this moment, Wang Zheng and the Golden Bell have been identified.

He was shocked and looked at Changsun Jinghong in shock.

Changsun Jinghong sat up, "I haven't eaten yet, are you? Go and ask the kitchen to make some wine dishes and let's have a drink."

Wang Zheng and Jin Zhong left, Changsun Jinghong raised his eyes to Li Chenan, "An old friend, also an old man from the Imperial City Department... sit down."

Li Chen'an sat down.

Changsun Jinghong took the coffin again and said:

"Everyone who works in our business, from top to bottom, must know one thing when coming in!"

"That is, life is the Imperial City Secretariat, death is the Imperial City Secretariat's ghost!"

"After stepping into this Hall of Hell, don't be nostalgic for the world again."

"His name is Miao Qiuxian, the former commander of the second department... He is the only commander of the seven commanders of the Imperial City Division who knows how to do martial arts."

"His background is a bit complicated, and no one knows it except me."

"In the winter of the third year of Zhaohua, before the incident of getting on the Marquis' Mansion, he was the steward of the Marquis' Mansion!"

"In the spring of the second year of Zhaohua, Princess Yun'an and Qiao Zitong moved to the plum garden after their wedding, and Miao also went to the plum garden in the autumn equinox and became the butler of the plum garden."

"He is a humble, low-key, and very knowledgeable person... He once had a good relationship with your grandfather Li Chunfu... Your grandfather often went to Meiyuan at that time, and cooked tea with Miao Qiuxian, and talked about poetry and Taoism."

"Later, that happened in the winter of the third year of Zhaohua. Miao Qiu Equinox was one of the few people who escaped from the plum garden. He had no way to go, or he didn't want to go if he had a way."

"He came to the Imperial City Department and served as a clerk for me for three years. He did not leave the Imperial City Department for those three years... Of course, he rarely appeared in Kyoto before."

"In this way, I asked him to be the commander of the Second Division... He said he was the commander, but in fact, the people in the Second Division only knew his name, and there were very few who had even seen him, because he broke his legs, changed his name and acted as a beggar in Kyoto for three years!"

"Under my husband's arrangement, he saved Ji Tai's eldest son's life, the General Ji Anji who is now guarding Tai'an City."

"Thus, he entered the Prime Minister's Mansion and gradually became Ji Tai's confidant, which made many people think that he was Xiwei."

This is a memory of the old man in front of him.

Li Chenan listened very seriously. Not only did he respect the old man, he also heard some stories about the Imperial City Department.

For example, this old man named Miao Qiuequin lying in the coffin put the rest of his life on the only thing-

Uncover Xi Wei's face towel!

To get on the chariot, avenge Princess Yun'an!

As the supreme leader of the Imperial City Department, Changsun Jinghong has done the same thing over the years, but he is just to avenge Queen Lu!

He talked for a long time until Wang Zheng and Jin Zhong brought the wine and food with a tray and sat at the table, and then he did not talk about the past.

"Pour wine... Lao Miao is alone in this life and he is betrayed. This matter must be investigated, and you are responsible for investigating it yourself!"

"In addition, his grave is also buried on the hillside of Shuiyun Mountain, so that the two widowed old men can have a companionship with each other."

Li Chenan responded very readily to the investigation of the betrayal of the Miao Qiuxian, but he was slightly surprised by the fact that he buried the Miao Qiuxian next to Sun Tiewei's tomb.

He poured a glass of wine for Changsun Jinghong and asked: "Where are the two plates of pig tails in front of Mr. Sun's grave?"

Changsun Jinghong did not deny it.

He sprinkled the glass of wine in front of the coffin of the autumnal equinox.

"Sun Tiezhi...he is actually called Changsun Tiezhi."

"My dear brother!"

Li Chenan was shocked.

"You should be the second person who knows about this, except Fan Taohua."

"I kill people, he saves people."

"I killed many people who should be killed, and he saved many people who should not be saved!"

"He used to like drinking, and his confusion was the best in the world. He was invited by one person to drink a lot of wine... That night, many people died in Kyoto!"

"That night was the third day of the October 3rd year of Zhaohua!"

"That night fog filled Kyoto and the confusion filled the waiting mansion!"
