Han Bing's death made Su Cheng deepen his suspicion of Wu Pengju, but there were some things that he hadn't figured out yet.
On the way back to the mansion from the Yamen of Zhetai, Su Cheng kept thinking that if Wu Pengju was the mastermind behind the scenes, then why did he instruct Han Bing to do these cases.
It stands to reason that Wu Pengju will have the opportunity to become the Duke of the country soon. The most important thing now is to seek stability. There is no need to do such a radical thing!
And the most important point is that the poison Han Bing took was the same as that of the dead soldiers in Liuhe County. If Wu Pengju was the mastermind behind the scenes, wouldn't it mean that Wu Pengju was related to Zhao Kangyu, who trained the dead soldiers in the first place?
These things troubled Su Cheng and made Su Cheng fall into silence. He didn't come back to his senses until he returned to the big house.
Looking at the big house in front of him, Su Cheng got off his horse and just wanted Tian Dazhuang to call the door, but the door opened on his own initiative.
Shen Youwei came out of the house and saw Su Cheng coming back. Her eyes lit up and she came up to him: "I heard the sound of horse hoofbeats. I guess my husband, you are back!"
Su Cheng smiled slightly: "It's getting late. Let's go to bed early. We still have things to do tomorrow."
He didn't want Shen Youwei to worry too much, he could just handle the case himself.
Shen Youwei understood what her husband-in-law meant. After hearing this, she hugged Su Cheng's arm and walked towards the backyard of the mansion. She took the opportunity to introduce the house to Su Cheng.
The night passed without incident, and the next day soon came. Su Cheng took He Changfa, Niu Chong, Tian Dazhuang and Shen Xingyu to the Naitai Yamen.
On the road, the people were talking a lot.
"Have you heard that Jiang Hou forced the murderer to death as soon as he came back?"
"Really? Why did Marquis Jiang do this? Didn't the murderer stay in the Taiyuan Yamen to find the mastermind?"
"Who says it's not the case? Now that Jiang Hou has forced the murderer to death, the clues have been cut off. It will be difficult for the Taiyuan government to handle it."
"Then tell me, did Marquis Jiang have a guilty conscience when he forced the murderer to death?"
"Shh~ You can't say this casually, otherwise once word spreads and Marquis Jiang finds out, how many of your heads will be knocked off?"
Naturally, the people's comments could not be hidden from Su Cheng's ears, and it was he who sent people to spread the news!
Since Wu Pengju dared to do this, couldn't he, Su Cheng, promote the other party?
Wu Pengju was in the first grade of junior high school, but Su Chenggong dared to be in the fifteenth grade!
If he dared to attack his wife, Su Cheng, he would not let Wu Pengju go. By pushing Wu Pengju to the forefront through this matter, he could expose his true face and find out whether he was the real mastermind behind the scenes!
"Master Hou, do you think that if Wu Pengju learns about this, will he take action against you?" He Changfa was a little worried.
After all, the other party is a marquis and the commander-in-chief of Jiang Province. He has military power in his hands. If they really offend the other party and take risks, then they will be in danger.
He Changfa has been a head catcher for so long, and he knows a lot about official affairs, so he is quite clear about these things.
If a marquis who is about to become a duke has a bad reputation, there is basically no hope of being promoted to a duke.
In that case, people will definitely kill the person who made them look bad at all costs!
"Oh, He Changfa, you just think too much!" Niu Chong looked disapproving: "Our Marquis is also a Marquis, why are you afraid that he won't succeed!"
Tian Dazhuang also shook his huge fist and waved it fiercely: "That is, if they really dare to take action against the Marquis, I will be the first to refuse!"
Although Shen Xingyu said nothing, a look of certainty flashed through his determined eyes.
Su Cheng looked at the four people with different expressions, but there was a look of indifference on his lips: "With Wu Pengju's character, he will definitely take action when he receives the news. You guys should be careful next time. This time has been Stay with me and don't give him a chance to strike."
Judging from how Wu Pengju forced Han Bing to death and attacked him, he was a pragmatic person and he had to be on guard.
What's more, the opponent has military power in his hands. If he really wants to take action, he will definitely be cruel. He is a Marquis. Wu Pengju will definitely not dare to attack him directly. The only people who can attack him are the people around him.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis, we are not the ones to be slaughtered by him!" Niu Chong looked confident.
Su Cheng shook his head, and then led everyone to the Zhetai Yamen. He still had something to do today!
At this time, in the front yard of Jianghou Mansion, Wu Pengju was wearing a black suit, holding a big sword, and was practicing his sword skills.
After being defeated by Shen Youwei last night, he didn't sleep well all night and practiced martial arts in the yard when he got up in the morning.
The light of the sword flashed, the whistling sound continued, and the light of the sword roared out, as if to vent the anger in his heart. At this moment, Wu Pengju was filled with anger every time he swung his sword.
But at this moment, Wu Wencheng's anxious voice came from the door of the house: "Dad, something serious is going to happen!"
Wu Pengju's expression changed when he heard this, the knife in his hand suddenly stopped, his whole body exploded, and an invisible pressure knocked Wu Wencheng away as he rushed towards him.
"Ouch~" Wu Wencheng screamed as he was knocked to the ground, and rubbed his shoulders when he got up.
"Dad, you are too harsh. I have something important to tell you. Do you want to listen?" Wu Wencheng looked dissatisfied.
Wu Pengju glanced at Wu Wencheng and said coldly: "You have to be calm when things happen. If you are so reckless, when will it become a big deal?"
Wu Wencheng curled his lips and said: "I don't want it to be a big deal. Now people are saying that you, father, are the one behind the scenes, so you forced Han Bing to death to cut off this clue."
As soon as these words came out, Wu Pengju squinted his eyes, flashed a cold look, and suddenly appeared next to Wu Wencheng. He took Wu Wencheng's hand and asked coldly:
"Tell me clearly, what happened!"
Wu Wencheng shrugged: "When I went out in the morning, I heard the people in the city talking. When I asked about it, I found out that they were all discussing Han Bing's death last night, and they were targeting you, father. If I guessed right, This matter should be news that Marquis Wu An deliberately let out."
Wu Pengju sneered when he heard this: "Except for this Marquis of Wu'an, no one in Jiang Province dares to go against me. Huh, he is quite powerful and knows how to spread this news!"
"What a pity, this Jiang Province belongs to me, and he is destined to be in vain!"
"Someone is coming!"
"Here are my subordinates!" A knight came in from outside the house.
"Send the order and immediately stop the spread of rumors. If anyone dares to discuss this matter again, arrest them all!"
Wu Pengju sneered, took off his belt from his waist and threw it to the knight: "Take my token and go outside the city to mobilize two battalions of soldiers into the city!"
"My subordinates take orders!" After the knight said this, he turned around and went down to make arrangements.
But Wu Pengju did not give up, he also ordered people to find Liu Changfeng!
At this moment, Liu Changfeng is still the commander of thousands, and he is also under the supervision of Wu Peng!
