In the lobby of the Xu family, Xu Qian sat here with a gloomy face, without saying a word!

As for the others, they were sitting on both sides, Wang Cheng sat on Xu Qian's lower head, looking lingering in fear, and his face turned pale.

Shuntian Prefecture, the local Jinyiwei Qianhu, the commander of the Xicheng Military Command, and even the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple.

The prefect of Shuntian coughed and told the story one by one. The final conclusion was: "Seven or eight thieves sneaked in last night. After killing the king's way, they immediately fled to the east city. In addition, footprints were found

And the Blood Knife, etc.”

Xu Qian said: "So can this murderer be held?"

The prefect smiled bitterly, shook his head quickly, and said, "The thief is familiar at first sight, and he is uncertain. Since he has escaped, although the whole city has begun to investigate, the officials thought that they must have left a way out, but they are afraid... they can't take it.

Live."

What he said was the truth. Although he could fool him and say he would hold it sooner or later and show some confidence, the prefect is not a fool. If he said that, the court would definitely restrict the order to chase the murderer. But the problem is, you can go

Where to find it? If you can't find it, it means you are dereliction of duty. It's better to exaggerate the strength of the assassin and leave a way out for yourself, otherwise wouldn't you betray yourself?

Wang Cheng, who was sitting beside him, suddenly slapped the table hard and said angrily: "It's outrageous. If such a big thing happened, that's what you explained? If the assassin cannot be found, what should I do if someone dies? Fortunately, the guards of the Xu family found it in time. If it were

These assassins killed Wang Daozhong and came to kill Lord Xu and me again. Wouldn't we also want to die in vain? There are so many high-ranking officials in the capital, and will everyone be in a panic in the future? What are you... what are you doing?

”

Several people suddenly felt cold and sweating. In fact, they were also wronged. They were woken up by someone in the middle of the night and were confused about such a big case. Moreover, the assassin was gone. Where did they ask them to find it?

But they naturally dare not say anything about what the current situation is, the more they say it, the more they are wrong, and whoever says it is unlucky.

Xu Qian said with slightest thought: "In fact, it is second to whether it can hold on to the assassin. These are just a group of dead soldiers. They are all dedicated to others. I just want to know who is instructing this? If no one instructs it,

Why are these assassins so thoroughly? What are their plans? Is it so great to kill Lord Wang? They don’t rob money? It can be seen that they have plans, so I think the most urgent thing is to find out

The person behind the scenes comes, you must investigate this matter clearly, otherwise, this official will be unable to sleep or eat. Besides, this Lord Wang still has an official position now. Buying a murderer to assassinate the imperial court officials is a death sentence. Everyone

... I have to think of a way. Uncle Wang and I will definitely come to Chen Tian to listen to him and ask the emperor to come and do it within a deadline. If we can't do it, we are afraid that it will be difficult to explain."

Everyone here couldn't help but have a cold war.

In fact, everyone's attention was just now on the assassin and he didn't expect anything else, but now he thought about it, something was wrong.

Many people suddenly thought of many rumors about the market, such as Xu Qian brought to Beijing in the kingly way, just to criticize Yang Yiqing. It is also said that he has obtained many related evidences, and there are even some serious evidences related to Yang Yiqing. These evidences are enough to make Yang Yiqing

House search and family extermination.

It is also rumored that the Yang family has begun to arrange the arrangements, saying that someone has already gone to the hometown of the kingly way. Originally, these were just rumors in the market, and only ignorant people would talk about it. But as a court official, I would be stupid to believe this.

But now...

Is this a murder? Lord Yang Yiqing and Lord Yang are afraid that the truth will be revealed, afraid that the kingly way will be unrestrained, and even afraid that it may harm the whole family. After all, what they sued you is a serious crime of rebellion and ill-conspiracy. They rushed to the capital thousands of miles away, and they also went there.

Is it still a trip if I am so low-key? Without definite evidence, I can’t kill Yang Yiqing at once. People have the courage and have the time to come here?

But now... people are dead, and dead people can't speak.

Everyone felt suspicious more and more. If this was really a hand that Yang Yiqing instructed, then... it would be so terrible. On the one hand, it was the minister of the cabinet, on the other hand, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the uncle, it would be impossible to mess with either end.

, I can't give Xu Qian and his uncle an explanation. They want to deal with you, but if you really find out something, Yang Yiqing will jump over the wall and may not be sure to deal with you.

This time... I'm afraid it's really deadly.

Everyone's faces were heavy and uneasy, but since Xu Qian said this, he had to say: "Please do your best to do it."

As he was speaking, a eunuch came to the palace and read out the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager, and then said, "Mr. Xu, uncle Wang Guo, please enter the palace quickly. The Empress Dowager has been waiting for a long time, so you can't delay it."

Xu Qian and Wang Cheng looked at each other and naturally prepared to enter the palace. As for these officials, they had to stay in the Xu family and look for clues obediently.

Along the way, Xu Qiantian, who was sitting in the sedan chair, looked motionless. Of course, he killed himself in the king's way! He didn't think it was the trick of catching thieves. The contradiction involved now is too great, no matter Wang Xuezhi

The struggle is still a struggle between the old school, the struggle between the Xu Party and the Yang Party, or even the struggle between the emerging interest groups in Zhizhe and the old vested interests, are already inevitable.

Xu Qian represents hundreds of millions of people. Some of these people are buried in the court, there are great scholars in the school, students who shake their heads, workers who grow mulberry cotton in the fields, and

If Xu Qian fails in the workshop, it means everyone's failure. Once it fails, it will never be the same as before. A few people step down and a few people are responsible for their retirement and return home, but hundreds of them are

Millions of people were affected, the officials of the new policy were dismissed, Wang Xue's disciples were imprisoned, and even got rid of fame and fortune. The gentry who planted cotton mulberry suffered heavy losses, merchants went bankrupt, countless workers lost their livelihoods, became refugees, and finally hungry and hungry

Froze to death.

Since a new world has been created, Xu Qian is no longer a person at this moment. His success is the success of thousands of people, and his failure is the failure of thousands of people.

So Xu Qian doesn't mind, doesn't mind using any means, doesn't mind using various means, he only pursues the result, and those who achieve great things are also pursuing this result. Whoever wants to be a roadblock, then kicks him away, whoever stands

In the opposite of Xu Qian, standing against Xu Qian and the thousands of people behind him, then try your best to kill him with all means.

This is a very simple truth, so Xu Qian was in a very calm mood at this time. He arranged everything he had done now, including Shuntian Mansion and other yamen, including Wang Cheng, and now entering the palace.

In the sedan chair, he tried hard to think about whether there were any other loopholes. When he finally confirmed, he closed his eyes and took a nap.

When they arrived at the Meridian Gate, the two got out of the sedan chair, walked into the palace together, went directly to Cining Palace, and paid homage to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother was still angry, but when she saw that Xu Qian and Wang Cheng were both safe and sound, she felt relieved and said, "The Ai family is worried about death. These thieves are really bold. It seems that the world has been peaceful for too long.

Many officials are becoming more and more perfunctory, and such a big thing happened. Fortunately, you are safe and sound.

Wang Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Empress Dowager, we are lucky and have to live a hundred years old. What are you afraid of if you are just a few thieves?"

The Queen Mother said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense."

After saying that, he looked at Xu Qian and said, "What happened last night? Tell me quickly."

Xu Qian did not hide it and said everything that happened last night. His logic was very clear and organized, and almost reproduced everything that happened last night.

The Queen Mother frowned repeatedly when she heard this, and kept saying, "The thief deserves to die. How could such a thing happen at the foot of the emperor? It's outrageous. No wonder such things happen in the palace. Look at what the mess outside is like?"

Xu Qian said: "But as Yongfeng Bo said, it's okay for us to be blessed and have great fortunes. But I don't know if I should say something or not."

The Queen Mother said, "You can say it."

Xu Qian frowned and said, "Last night, a guest in Weichen's house was killed by an assassin, so Weichen thought that these assassins should be coming for this guest, but who is so bold and reckless that he dared to come to Wei.

I think the Queen knew that the father of the Wei-Minist was the commander of the Jinyiwei. Several cousins ​​in the Mansion also worked in the Jinyiwei, and the guards gathered, so the defense was strictly for what they were doing.

, he had to put the guests in the mansion to death. Now that he has died in the family of the empress, he has to give him an explanation no matter what, so he must affirm the empress, and urge all the yamen to find the real murderer.

Especially if you need to find the master messenger behind the scenes, otherwise there will be no answer for a day, and the Wei Me is uneasy,"

These words are naturally polite and polite. The Queen Mother is a woman, so of course she won’t be too deep. However, after being reminded by Xu Qian, she was also alert and said, “What you said is, who has nothing to do after eating, runs to you

Go to kill people in the mansion, unless it is a must. It is of great importance. Don't worry, this palace will definitely urge Your Majesty to issue an order to urge the Jinyiwei and Shuntian Mansion to arrest the real murderer. This matter must be thoroughly investigated. This is not just for

You are also to serve as a warning. If someone assassinated you today, wouldn’t someone assassinate Your Majesty tomorrow? This trend must not last long, and you must have an explanation."
