The next day when the court went to court, hundreds of officials stood in the main hall. Everyone's expressions were solemn and solemn, as if something important had happened.
Bai Yu went up to court and saw everyone with solemn expressions on their faces, and couldn't help but feel a little confused.
After all the ministers saluted, the morning court ceremony officially began.
During this period of time, Bai Yutian simplified many steps, stopped engaging in nihilism, worked vigorously and resolutely, and sought to maximize efficiency.
"My dear friends, what's wrong with you, why are you so dull?" Bai Yutian said with a faint smile.
"Your Majesty, a lot of big things happened last night." Zhang Hui stepped forward and said.
Zhang Hui's words made Bai Yutian's smile fade. Zhang Hui is the commander of the law enforcement department. If he said there was something big, it must be something related to crime, and it was also a big case.
Tailin City is prosperous. As the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it has always been a model for the Great Zhou Dynasty.
This time Zhang Hui said something big, and Bai Yutian couldn't wait to ask what the big thing was.
Zhang Hui's face was bitter, "Last night, the Cao family and the Qiu family, the wealthy merchants in Tailin City, were massacred. A total of 105 people died."
"In addition, a fire suddenly broke out in a residential area in the east of the city in the middle of the night. The casualties have not yet been calculated."
"A valuable bank in the west of the city was also stolen last night, involving a sum of up to one hundred thousand taels."
"..."
Zhang Hui talked about several cases in a row, each one causing a sensation. However, these cases happened at the same time last night, which is incredible.
Moreover, these cases also involve many ministers, making them feel very uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty, Cao Yi is my best friend. He is loyal and kind. He will never do anything to oppress the people. He also donated a lot of silver to the drought in Longxi. I beg your Majesty to investigate this case thoroughly." One person stood up and burst into tears.
said.
"Your Majesty, my uncle lives in the east of the city. The fire burned his family to death. Your Majesty, please investigate this case thoroughly."
"His Majesty……"
Countless ministers stood up and complained about these cases, asking Bai Yutian to investigate thoroughly as soon as possible.
Listening to these people's cries, Zhang Hui and Qiao Che also felt tremendous pressure.
This is the most difficult situation they have encountered since they became officials. With so many cases, their manpower is almost exhausted.
"Zhang Hui, Qiao Che." Bai Yutian held his forehead. So many people died overnight. Bai Yutian was shocked and filled with anger.
These people are all his people.
"I'm here!" Zhang Hui and Qiao Che quickly stood up.
"The two of you arrange manpower as soon as possible and use all means to find clues for me within three days. If you can't find them, you can present your heads."
"Yes!" Zhang Hui and Qiao Che said helplessly.
After going to court, Zhang Hui and Qiao Che rushed to the place where the case took place without stopping, and personally investigated all suspicious places without missing any details.
Judging from the appearance, those who died were almost all killed with one knife, very cleanly, and it was impossible for ordinary people to complete it.
Moreover, the heavy rain last night lost many clues for the investigation, making it even more difficult for Zhang Hui and Qiao Che.
These people should all be sleeping at the time. Most of them were killed in their rooms. Only a few people ran to the door of the room, but they were killed before they could call for help.
Although Zhang Hui and Qiao Che were investigating, Bai Yutian still couldn't calm down and had to ask someone to check on the situation every once in a while.
In order to cooperate with the two men's investigation, Bai Yutian even separated most of the Dragon Guards and temporarily obeyed Qiao Che and Zhang Hui's orders.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. There's no point in worrying about it." Yun Qing said helplessly to Bai Yutian.
Bai Yutian felt irritable, so he came to Tai Chi Hall to find Yun Qing to relieve his mood.
"Hmph, there was an assassination attempt by Tianjia just now, and there are so many cases later. Tailin has not been peaceful recently." Bai Yutian slapped his thigh and said angrily.
"Your Majesty, do you think these cases are related to Tianjia?"
With the development of things, Tianjia is no longer a secret, and people in Bai Yutian's inner circle know these things.
However, Bai Yutian did not tell Yun Qing how powerful the Tianjia was, to prevent Yun Qing from worrying too much about him.
After hearing Yun Qing's words, Bai Yutian suddenly realized and had an enlightenment.
Yes, it was all such a coincidence, so many things happened in one night.
Whether it was the massacre of the entire family or the fire in the east of the city, they were both too bizarre and had a far-reaching impact, even the imperial court was affected.
Although Tailin City is now a mixed bag, with figures from all three religions and nine sects, these things are simply not something that ordinary people or ordinary forces can do.
Therefore, these foreign Tianjia assassins are the biggest suspects.
"Hahaha, the queen is really smart and unparalleled, she is my virtuous wife!" Bai Yutian picked up Yun Qing and took a sip, covering Yun Qing's face with his own saliva.
"Your Majesty!" Yun Qing half-heartedly gave Bai Yutian a blank look, seeming to blame Bai Yutian for his recklessness.
Now that Yun Qing is pregnant, naturally she cannot be as casual as before.
"I was the one who was abrupt!" Bai Yutian sneered and put Yun Qing down.
Then, his eyes shone brightly and he said: "The queen is right, the murderers of these cases are most likely people from Tianjia."
Yun Qing covered her small mouth with her delicate fingertips, "Is this really the case?"
Bai Yutian didn't tell her the specific strength of Tianjia, he just said that it was very strong, almost stronger than most of the forces in the world.
Therefore, she came up with this speculation.
Bai Yutian quickly called Qiao Che and Zhang Hui and asked them to carefully investigate the outsiders in Tailin City within seven days. The requirements must be detailed and no one should be left behind.
Although Bai Yutian was able to mobilize the troops in Tailin City, they knew nothing about Tianjia's actions. Even if they captured Tianjia's people, they did not torture out any information about their actions.
Otherwise, Bai Yutian can directly send troops to capture these assassins.
Jianghu respected personal force, martial arts was on the rise, and the imperial court could stand firm and rule the Zhou Dynasty only by relying on an army as large as a mountain or a sea.
As soon as Qiao Che and Zhang Hui took the order, something big happened in Tailin City soon.
In Tailin City, another family was wiped out, and it was also the family of a court minister. He was promoted by Bai Yutian himself. This person was still very young and quite capable. He was the second group after Fan Yongxian's group.
His talents were jointly praised by Yuncheng and Yan Chong.
Now, he died in his own home, along with his wife and three-year-old son.
When Bai Yutian heard about it, he was furious and sad. He refused to listen to others' dissuasion and insisted on going to the scene to check the situation.
