The truth is far more serious than Chu Qing thought. The conspiracy of the people behind the scenes can be said to be that Wu Yong's wife has been infertile for ten years.
People from the Jingzhao Prefecture came, but not from the Jingying Camp. There was a fire in the North Market, there was a life-and-death lawsuit on the Liuhe Flower Boat, and a group of soldiers patrolling the streets in the west of the city were killed.
In addition, there were incidents in Tai'anfang, in the four directions of the capital, east, south, west and north, and these four places were all close to the city gate.
Chu Qing rode a fast horse and hurried back to the Qianqiying Yamen Office despite the pain in his back. On the way, he met friends who had gained trust. Tao Ruolin looked worried, and she was greatly surprised when she saw that Chu Qing could still ride a horse.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
There was no communication on the road. Everyone returned to the Qianqiying Yamen Office, and Chu Qing quickly made arrangements.
"Organize manpower and go to the four city gates. As long as the city gates are closed, the ugly ghost can't escape. Don't worry about other things. Make sure to seal the city gates. The emergency in Bei City is the most serious. In case of fire, we need manpower.
At most, it is very likely that he wants to take advantage of the chaos to escape from the north gate and replace all the city gatekeepers with his own people. If any city gatekeeper or guard army has any unnecessary nonsense, they should be captured immediately and the details will be investigated.
The hanging basket leaving the city and the steps leading up to the city wall are all carefully guarded. No one is allowed to approach. We are going to find General Tan Zhongping and lend us troops!"
Everyone followed the order and left. Chu Qing quickly ran out, went to the backyard and entered the bedroom.
Fu San's injuries were either serious or minor. He had two stab wounds, no bones, but he was choked by a lot of smoke. The main reason was that he was hit by a plaque on his back, and the plaque was extremely hot at the time.
Burnt black.
The third brother drank the medicine and fell asleep on the bed. The doctor carefully cleaned the wound on his back.
Seeing Chu Qing come in, the doctor's expression remained as usual: "No muscles or bones are injured, only flesh and blood injuries. Remember to change the dressing and rest assured. It's nothing serious."
The doctor is a serious doctor. Tao Ruolin found her in Beijing some time ago. He goes to check on the health of students from Hanshan Academy every now and then. He is in his sixties and lives not far from the Qianqiying Yamen Office.
Chu Qing gave a salute, stepped forward and saw that the third brother's face was still rosy, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you."
After saying that, Chu Qing returned to the main hall again. He still had a lot of things to do. If King Wu was behind this incident, he must get irrefutable proof, and then he would kill King Wu no matter what!
But if it has nothing to do with King Wu, as the commander of Qianqi Camp, he must give King Wu a clean slate. It is true that he dislikes King Wu, but it does not mean that he wants King Wu to be framed. There are other reasons, as mentioned in the previous paragraph.
At that time, he met Tan Ma who came back from Weijiang and learned more about the fiefdom of King Wu. He had to say that in the fiefdom, Chang Chengke was worthy of being called a wise king. The most important thing is that this guy killed
Noble families and officials showed no mercy.
The detective horse was called, and Chu Qing explained again that the Academy and Nanjiao Zhuangzi should send more manpower, especially Nanjiao Zhuangzi, to investigate whether any suspicious people had sneaked in recently, and at the same time asked Jingzhao Mansion to post notices as soon as possible.
After returning to the main hall, Chu Qing began to write a letter to Huang Laosi, mainly to tell what happened, and at the same time, he hoped to get the emperor's consent to search the residences of officials and noble families everywhere.
Halfway through the letter, the sound of footsteps was heard, and the person entering was walking like a dragon or a tiger.
"Old Shi!" Huang Laosi, wearing a black robe, walked in quickly with a worried look on his face. As soon as Chu Qing raised his head, he came to the desk in three steps at a time.
Chu Qing was instantly moved and stood up: "Why are you still coming out?"
"I'm worried about you." Huang Laosi looked Chu Qing up and down. After seeing that Chu Qing was indeed not injured, he grinned: "As long as it's okay, it's okay."
Chu Qing stretched his head and looked outside. Sun An was standing alone at the door, and he didn't hear any unnecessary footsteps.
"Don't look at it, I only have Sun An with me."
"Are you too brave? The prince has just been assassinated, and you dare to bring Sun An out alone without fear of something happening?"
"If something happens, I will deduct his salary!"
Chu Qing gave a thumbs up.
This is to assassinate the prince. If he assassinates the emperor, he may doubt whether the person behind the scenes is Sun An.
"The Crown Prince and Fourth Brother talked about what happened tonight. It was a dangerous situation. If you and Fu San hadn't fought to the death, and the Crown Prince had been lured into the Chu Mansion, it would have been very dangerous."
Chu Qing was unhappy: "Look at what you said, the prince is still my nephew, can I betray him?"
The fourth child chuckled: "Including this time, you have saved this kid twice."
"Fourth." Chu Qing looked strange: "Your son was almost assassinated, are you still in the mood to laugh?"
"Isn't this okay?"
"I thought you were going to make Long Yan furious."
"I want to be angry, but I can't be angry at you. I want to be angry in the government hall tomorrow."
Huang Laosi said with a big heart: "The prince has returned to the palace safely. Don't leave the palace until the truth comes to light. But you should be more careful outside the palace. Don't do what you did tonight again in the future. Travel is scheduled."
We need more people.”
"I know." Chu Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The fourth child was very ambitious, but these words made him feel comfortable. Even if Long Yan was furious, he should not be angry with himself, and he almost folded.
"How is Fusan?"
"Fortunately, it's not a serious injury. It will take some time to recover."
Huang Laosi asked innocently: "Why is it that every time you are assassinated, Fu San is always injured?"
This question was very heartbreaking. Chu Qing blushed and didn't know how to answer.
Logically speaking, he could have said that Fukusan Zhongyi Wushuang was the bravest, the most fierce, and the one who was definitely injured the most.
But in fact, it's a bit shameful to say this, because every time the third brother gets injured, the reason is... more difficult to talk about.
"Anyway, it's fine that you two are fine. Although the prince told me what happened, it was only in a few words. Please tell me again."
"oh."
Chu Qing crumpled the half-written piece of paper and then recounted what happened in detail.
After hearing this, the fourth child couldn't stop laughing.
"Forge your Qianqiying waist badge, pretend to be a detective, and pretend to be a guard at the same time, lure you two to the Chu Mansion, and catch them all in one go!"
"Can you please stop using idioms randomly? What does it mean to catch them all in one fell swoop?"
The fourth child frowned and murmured: "The difference between them is only half an hour. You first arrived at the Chu Mansion, forced you to submit, then introduced the prince into the Chu Mansion, left the imperial guards outside the manor, and then did something inappropriate to the prince.
…”
"That's about it."
"There are twenty-three assassins in total. Except for the Wu Yong you mentioned, they were all killed. If you want to find out the person behind it, you can only find Wu Yong."
Chu Qing nodded: "The appearance is quite obvious. As long as he doesn't leave the city, he will be caught sooner or later."
"Okay, search Dasuo City, especially the officials' mansions and aristocratic families, search carefully."
Chu Qing gave Lao Si a thumbs up.
He just likes the other person's cheerfulness without even having to take the initiative to say it himself.
"By the way, there's one more thing."
"What's wrong?"
Huang Laosi's face was full of worry: "You have only been back in Beijing for a month, and you have been assassinated twice in succession. Fourth brother, you are very worried. What should you do if something happens to you? If something happens to you, what will happen to others?"
It's easy to say, but your...your..."
Chu Qing sneered again and again: "Bank notes?"
"Old Ten is indeed worried about this matter." Old Four said with a stern look on his face: "Why don't you put your banknotes in the palace, so that I won't worry about your banknotes...worry about your safety."
"First, as I said before, the money was left at the border. Second, listen to me, thank you."
"My family, what are you grateful for?" Lao Si waved his hand and laughed loudly: "Fourth brother cares about you so much, don't be moved."
"Haha." Chu Qing rolled his eyes.
Huang Laosi also rolled his eyes and smiled playfully.
