Bai Song frowned, this was something he must be concerned about.
Before Bai Song could ask, an official outside shouted: "Lu Xiaochen, what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly!"
"Yes, yes, my lord, I will be here shortly."
The criminal investigation team of the Criminal Department has been assembled and is about to leave for Furong Garden.
Lu Xiaochen turned around and said in a suppressed voice: "No more, I have to go."
"Wait a minute!" Bai Song grabbed Lu Xiaochen, "Sir, you also asked me to help you investigate the case! Isn't this just right?"
"You?" Lu Xiaochen frowned slightly.
"Maybe I'm lucky. Not only can I help you solve the case, but it also brings me closer to other officials, right?"
Lu Xiaochen thought for a while: "Wait a minute."
With that said, Lu Xiaochen came to the ear of the official at the door and whispered something.
After a while, the official came to Bai Song and looked at Bai Song up and down with his big belly.
Lu Xiaochen hurriedly introduced: "This is Mr. Liu Changhe, the head of the Criminal Department. This is Bai Song, a student of Yongxing Academy and a disciple of Mr. Yu Shinan."
Mr. Liu nodded and said: "He is Mr. Yu's disciple, and I will take care of him. However, today's case is a bit urgent and there is no room for carelessness. Master, please come again next time."
"Stop looking down on people!" Yu Qingqing stepped forward and said, "Brother Bai is a first-rate talent, so what does it mean to investigate a case? If you can't solve the case, maybe Brother Bai will solve it as soon as he takes action!"
Scholars have nothing to do with investigating cases.
Mr. Liu didn't take Bai Song seriously at all, but he recognized Yu Qingqing. The eldest lady of the Yu family, the jewel in the eye of the Jianghuai Group, was not someone whose status could be determined by titles or official positions.
This little girl is of considerable background, at least she is far from someone a fifth-grade official would dare to offend.
For Yu Qingqing's sake, Master Liu fortunately allowed the two of them to follow him, and a group of nearly twenty people hurried to Furong Garden.
The Imperial City is too far away from the Furong Garden. Even if everyone rushes to the Furong Garden, it is already dusk after everyone arrives at the Furong Garden and it is already dark.
The team of the Ministry of Justice failed to enter the Furong Garden directly, and the brigade officials were stopped directly outside the Furong Garden by the Turks.
At this time, all the Turks stared at the team of the Criminal Department with red eyes.
After Bai Song left Furong Garden, assassinations of Turks occurred one after another.
In just five days, more than twenty Turks of different tribes were killed.
The places where they were killed are also different, but they are all places where Turks often move.
Although these murdered Turks were divided into different tribes, they had one thing in common.
They are all famous and brave warriors among the Turkic people.
On the battlefield, without exception, they are all powerful characters that can match one against a hundred.
But these powerful people have died one after another recently, and they were all beheaded with a sharp knife!
Five days have passed since the incident. The Ministry of Punishment has not yet solved the case, and the imperial court has been unable to explain to the Turks. This has made the Turks angry. If Bai Song had not just announced that it would restrain the Turks' behavior, the Turks would have started making trouble in the city at this moment.
.
The imperial court also knew the seriousness of the matter. Li Jing, who was the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, ordered that the case must be solved before the Mid-Autumn Festival, otherwise all officials in the Ministry of Punishment would be punished.
Although the Ministry of Punishment has started an extremely high-pressure policy, the murderer is still only known as a swordsman.
After a few days, let alone solving the case, not even a single fingerprint of the murderer was found.
Today is even more bizarre. The murderer has become so rampant that he directly sneaked into Furong Garden and killed Prince Jieli.
This incident completely ignited the anger of the Turks, because the Turks already felt that they were no longer safe on their own territory. They even suspected that the imperial court was secretly targeting the Turks. Once the imperial court had killed all the Turkic masters, it would then attack the Turks.
of civilians were killed.
Therefore, when the criminal team arrived, the Turks refused to let them in at all. They even sent out the most elite cavalry team to block the door, all with their swords drawn. If there was even the slightest sign of trouble, a battle would begin.
Mr. Liu was ordered to handle the case, but he did not expect that he would not be able to reach the scene of the crime. It is not easy to deal with these Turks. They are all barbarians and there is no reason to explain.
In the team, Mr. Liu bravely walked up to several Turkic clan leaders and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous, everyone. I was ordered to investigate the case. I am deeply sorry for the death of the prince."
,but……"
"Fuck you!" A Turkic man kicked him angrily, knocking Mr. Liu off his horse.
The officials behind were all anxious and shouted: "Sir! How dare you touch our master!"
Miso miso miso!
The people from the Criminal Department also drew their swords one after another.
But the people in the Criminal Department were not worth mentioning in front of the Turks. The sound of the Turks drawing swords instantly overwhelmed them, and the entire entrance to Furong Garden was filled with the fierce light of swords.
Mr. Liu was so frightened that he almost peed. There was no way he could do this. He must not conflict with the Turks at this time!
At that time, my entire team was so dead that not even the bones and dregs were left.
"Stop it!"
Mr. Liu hurriedly got up and jumped in a hurry, "Put the knife away! If anyone dares to move, I will suspend him!"
The officers all felt aggrieved, but the situation was beyond their control, so they had no choice but to put away their knives.
Mr. Liu kept smiling and said nice things without mentioning the fact that he had just been kicked.
Bai Song followed Lu Xiaochen.
Lu Xiaochen was holding a notebook to record the whole journey. Seeing this battle, his hands were shaking with fear.
Bai Song didn't panic. With him here, he could shake things up when necessary.
Then he asked curiously: "What is this recording?"
Lu Xiaochen explained tremblingly while recording.
It turns out that the position of the bookkeeper is to accompany the officials in handling cases and record everything about the case, similar to the work of modern law enforcement recorders.
Yu Qingqing and Bai Song rode on a horse, hugging Bai Song from behind and not daring to let go for a moment. This was the first time she had seen such a scene, and it was exciting and scary at the same time.
Mr. Liu in front did not know what he said, but he was slapped twice by the Turks in front of his face, which made a loud sound!
Mr. Liu still didn't dare to speak out, he said helplessly but he didn't know if the good words were of any use.
Bai Song couldn't stand it anymore and felt that it was not easy to work for the imperial court.
Then he led the horse forward.
Lu Xiaochen was startled, stopped Bai Song in a hurry, and shouted: "What are you doing?"
"Don't worry, I'm measured!"
Bai Song responded simply, and then shouted to the front: "Hey! Enough is enough, we are here to help, there must be basic trust!"
Bai Song spoke and instantly attracted everyone's attention.
The clan leaders in front were angry at first, but when Bai Song walked in, they recognized him immediately.
Bai Song didn't give a few people a chance to speak, got off his horse and walked up to Mr. Liu.
"Master Liu has been kind enough to help you track down the murderer, but you hit people without asking why. Do you have any hospitality? If you want to track down the murderer, then give us a chance to track it down. You won't even let us see the murder scene.
, and you’re still checking the hell out of me!”
When Mr. Liu heard that Bai Song was so rude, he stamped his feet angrily and said to himself, "Don't cause trouble!"
But before Mr. Liu could say anything, the Turkic man in front of him seemed to have turned into a sexual being. He didn't punch or kick Bai Song, nor did he even say a word in rebuttal. Instead, he nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, this young master is right. My lord, we have offended you so much just now, and I hope you can forgive me."
"My officer..." Mr. Liu was dumbfounded and didn't even understand the situation.
At this time, the Turks had already moved out of the way, and a few of them took the lead in person: "Sir, please come in and we will take you to see the murder scene."
"..."
Mr. Liu turned his head and looked at Bai Song.
Bai Song smiled and patted Mr. Liu on the shoulder: "Sir, what are you doing standing still? Let's go in and take a look!"
"oh oh……"
Mr. Liu nodded, dazedly and called his brothers to go inside.
The same goes for the accompanying officials, who are all dizzy and confused.
But the good thing is that we can go in and see the crime scene, so nothing more will happen.
When they arrived at Furong Garden, everyone dismounted and walked.
Mr. Liu didn't know the situation, but it was obvious that Bai Song's words had an effect. He quietly expressed his gratitude to Bai Song: "Brother Bai, thank you for today. Otherwise, I would be embarrassed and the case would not be closed for a long time. I'm afraid I would be in trouble."
We can't even protect him! Don't worry, I will remember what happened today. If Brother Bai needs any help in the future, just let me know."
"Your Majesty is so polite. This is obviously your sincerity that has moved the Turks."
Bai Song responded casually, but someone tugged at the corner of his clothes from behind.
It was Yu Qingqing who followed.
"Why do I think those Turks know you?"
"You are thinking too much!"
Two minutes later, the team arrived at the crime scene.
The Turks said in a deep voice: "Our Prince Jieli died at the hands of a swordsman. He had multiple stab wounds on his body, and there were obvious signs of a fight at the scene!"
"The swordsman...it's that swordsman again!" Mr. Liu glanced at the corpse lying on the ground with a solemn expression.
In everyone's eyes, it was already obvious that Prince Jieli's death was caused by the swordsman who frequently killed Turkic warriors.
Everyone in the martial arts community in the Central Plains hates the Turks, so it is not surprising that a master in the world would assassinate the Turks.
But they only wanted to vent their anger and did not care about the trouble that killing the Turks would bring to the court.
But it is very difficult to catch those martial arts people. Not only are these people highly skilled in martial arts, but they are also good at hiding. As long as they are unwilling to sacrifice themselves, catching the murderer is like finding a needle in a haystack.
"Hey! How can we do it in two days?"
Mr. Liu complained softly while looking at the clues at the scene.
Bai Song was also observing, and soon he made a discovery.
"Sir, you said that the previous swordsmen beheaded with one sword, but Prince Jieli was not decapitated, but had multiple stab wounds on his body. This is different from what was described before. Will you kill Jieli?
Is there someone else who can benefit the prince?"
It wasn't Bai Song who discovered this, other officials were also a little suspicious, but they didn't say anything because they didn't want to make the already complicated matter more complicated.
