Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3236
Li Junxian got up abruptly, walked out of the door without saying a word, and walked towards the execution room, followed by the captain's personal soldiers "hula la" behind him.

After walking a few steps, Li Junxian remembered something, and ordered the soldiers around him: "Immediately lead twenty cavalry, go to the direction of Jiuyi Mountain to track down the guards just now, if you are alive, you want to see people, if you die, you want to see corpses!"

He died suddenly when he was sent to the "Hundred Cavalry Division". If the guards were fine, how could it be possible?

"Here!"

The soldiers also realized that this matter was no small matter. Obviously, someone had plotted against the "Hundred Knights", how could this be tolerated?
Immediately galloped away, arrived at the campsite with twenty riders, flew on the horse, roared away in the cold wind, the sound of hooves was like thunder.

Only then did Li Junxian walk towards the execution room. Since the person is already dead, it is useless to worry any more. Instead, he must calm down, carefully consider the cause and effect, and the existing evidence clues, so as not to fall into the enemy's trap easily.

When they arrived at the gate of the execution room, dozens of soldiers had put on their helmets and put on their waists and knives and put the place under martial law. No one could come in or out at will.

Li Junxian stepped into the execution room, and Li Chongzhen, who had already been promoted to the chief of the "Hundred Knights" in the room, hurried up to greet him, cupping his fists in disrespect: "I have seen the commander."

Li Junxian glanced over Li Chongzhen's body, and saw one person lying on the ground, and the other two were bending over to take off his clothes and examine them carefully.

Li Chongzhen said: "When the general heard the news, he rushed over immediately and ordered people to block the left and right sides so that the news would not leak out. He Zuo is currently investigating the cause of death of the deceased."

Li Junxian nodded, stepped forward and stood behind Wu Zuo, and asked, "Can you find out the cause of this person's death?"

The two assistants stood up together, and after being rude, one of them said: "The deceased died of poisoning, and there was still a residue of poison at the corner of his mouth. Perhaps someone forced the poison into his mouth. The rest of the body only had a few minor injuries. , the wounds were bruised, and none of them were fatal."

"Hundred Knights" had the most experience in the operation, and the result of the joint inspection of the two people was that they died of poisoning, so there is no doubt about it.

Li Junxian looked at Li Chongzhen again: "Immediately find out the identity of this person, be quick! Then quickly check the people he has recently come into contact with and the places he has passed..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Chongzhen's face was stern, and he said: "There is no need to investigate, this person is Wei Zhengju, a son of Jingzhao Wei's family. The general has met him several times, and he will definitely not admit his mistake."

Li Junxian was taken aback for a moment.

Recently, Wei Zhengju's reputation can be described as extremely loud.Jingzhao Weishi once tried his best to promote this young and handsome young princess of the clan to Shangjinyang Princess. Many people in the royal family agreed, the momentum was very strong, and the probability of success was not low.It's just that he accidentally provoked Fang Jun and was intervened by Fang Jun. Not only was the marriage proposal basically hopeless, but the entire Jingzhao Webster went through an extremely dangerous disaster.

Among them, "Hundred Knights" also participated...

As a result, in just a few days, Jingzhao Webster's most outstanding disciple was sent to the "Hundred Knights Division" and died suddenly here?
A heavy haze hit Li Junxian's heart. Obviously, this must be a huge conspiracy, and "Baiqisi" has obviously been involved in it.

There was a flurry of footsteps outside, but it was the lieutenant who had been ordered to track down those imperial guards before, entered the execution room, and gasped, "I want to report to the commander, I was ordered to track down by the humble officer. The bodies of those people were found beside the official road on the bank of the Wei River, and they were all beheaded with horizontal knives. The humble officer inspected the scene and found more than ten horseshoe prints, but it was not too chaotic. It can be seen that those people When the imperial guards were about to die, they did not resist violently. The humble officer inferred that someone should have met these imperial guards on the way, and they must be acquaintances, so these people who responded suddenly violently killed people, and were caught off guard by beheading on the spot Kill, so there is no violent resistance."

Li Junxian nodded slightly, his complexion became more and more ugly.

The "Hundred Knights" are all elites drawn from various armies, since they dare to make such inferences in front of themselves, it is basically equivalent to confirming the answer.

He made a decisive decision and ordered Li Chongzhen to say: "You immediately take someone to the Imperial Forbidden Garden of Jiuyi Mountain and ask to see the two princesses. Be sure to find out what happened, and then trace the identities and positions of these guards, and kill all their colleagues. Detention, no matter who it is, no one is allowed to visit until the case is over!"

Wei Zhengju sneaked into the Royal Forbidden Garden to commit misdeeds, was arrested after the incident was revealed, and was sent to the "Hundred Knights", but died suddenly in the torture chamber of the "Hundred Knights".And the soldiers who sent him here were silenced halfway...

Every incident and every link is not in line with common sense, and it is obvious that someone is behind the scenes.

If it is as expected, among the imperial guards around the two princesses, Changle and Jinyang, there must be accomplices of these guards who were silenced, and at this moment, like those few guards, they have already been silenced ...

But the investigation is certain, and no conspiracy can be seamless. Only by mobilizing the greatest force to investigate carefully can we find out the clues left by the other party.

He took a breath, and said to everyone in the house: "From now on, the bow is stringed, the sword is drawn, and the 'Baiqisi' is waiting in full force! I will immediately go to the city to see His Royal Highness, report the matter, and ask for a decision. During this period, if there is no According to His Royal Highness's decree, without the commander's badge, anyone who tries to break into the 'Hundred Knights' camp will be killed!"

A huge conspiracy enveloped the "Hundred Knights", and no mistakes were allowed!

"Here!"

Everyone in the room agreed in unison, with solemn expressions.

Being in the "Hundred Knights", dealing with all kinds of conspiracies and tricks all day long, he is the most sensitive to conspiracies. Everyone is clearly aware that things are unusual, so naturally they dare not neglect.

……

Before dawn, the sky is darkest.

In the cold wind, the gate of the "Hundred Cavalry Division" camp was opened wide, and Li Chongzhen, the chief clerk, put on his helmet and armor, and led dozens of cavalry to gallop out of the camp. , and then went straight to Jiuyi Mountain along the official road beside the Weishui River.

Li Junxian, on the other hand, took his own troops and braved the cold wind to gallop around Longshouyuan and reach the Chunming Gate in the east of Chang'an City.

At this time, it was still dark and the gate of the city was not yet open, but the city guards naturally did not dare to stop the "Hundred Cavalry Division" from entering the city to do business. Let Li Junxian and his party enter the city gate.

More than ten riders galloped past the dark city gate, their hooves sounded like thunder, they didn't stop for a moment after passing through the city gate, their horseshoes trampled on the bluestone slabs on the street, and went straight to Xingqing Palace, the prince's current residence.

The soldiers guarding the Chunming Gate were stunned. After closing the gate, they looked at each other in blank dismay.

Someone lamented: "Baiqisi is so fast as thunder, and he called to open the city gate at dawn, there must be a big crime happening, I don't know who is going to be in trouble..."

Some people disagreed: "While Baiqisi is domineering, he has always acted cautiously. But whoever is targeted by them is an innocent person? Let me tell you, everyone who wants to punish rebellious officials and thieves is Baiqisi. It’s good to act like a thunderbolt.”

The rest of the soldiers did not participate in the discussion, they ran back to the barracks under the city wall in a swarm, and got into the warm bed...

……

Xingqing Palace.

Although it is not as magnificent and beautiful as the East Palace, it also has the charm of Jiangnan gardens. As the residence of Emperor Gaozu after the Zen throne, it is naturally regulated enough to match.

Li Chengqian was awakened by the servant, and patted the shoulder of the crown princess Su, who was awakened at the same time, and stuffed her white and graceful body back into the quilt, while he put on a robe and left the bedroom, and put on a set of ordinary clothes under the service of the maid , after a simple wash, came to the front hall to meet Li Junxian.

At dawn, he was the most sleepy. Last night he had a great fight with the princess for several rounds, his whole body was weak, and he seemed more and more depressed.

After taking a sip of boiling hot strong tea, he regained consciousness, which made Li Junxian understand why he came here.

By the time Li Junxian finished explaining what happened and his own guesses in a simple but essential way, all the drowsiness had disappeared.

Li Chengqian is about to call the servant: "Immediately, the imperial guards of the Eastern Palace will send a brigade of guards to the Imperial Forbidden Garden of Jiuyi Mountain to protect the safety of the two princesses. You will lead the team yourself. If the two princesses lose a hair, you will commit suicide and apologize." Bar."

The servant was startled, and hurriedly responded, and hurried out to summon the guards, and went to Jiuyi Mountain to guard the two princesses.

In the hall, Li Chengqian looked at Li Junxian and complained: "Since the general knows that there must be a conspiracy, how can he just send dozens of people to Jiuyi Mountain? What if the robbers hijack Changle and Jinyang, causing them There are three ups and downs, how can you make Gu feel at ease? If this happens again in the future, you should take this as a warning, even the position of Gu as the crown prince is more important than brothers and sisters who are not alone!"
