Half fairy

Chapter 129 Murder
At the intersection of the main street closest to Zhongfu, in a restaurant, there are two men dressed as scribes at the upper window, who seem to be not young.

The two sat opposite each other, toasted and drank, and suddenly heard the sound of cars and horses passing by on the street outside.

The two of them looked out the window and saw that the Duke's carriage turned quickly and headed straight for Zhongfu.

One person immediately said: "Instead of going to the West City, I came directly to the Zhong Mansion instead. This old guy reacted very quickly."

Another person hummed: "So what if the reaction is fast, take one step slower, step by step slower!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, raised their glasses and clinked...

Outside the Zhong Mansion, Ying Xiaotang, who got off the car, strode straight forward, followed by a group of people.

On the way, he had already received a report that the previous comer had turned back, saying that the Zhong Mansion had confessed that Ash Heng had not returned!
But Ying Xiaotang seemed convinced, and still came in person.

Duke Guo and Yushi Zhongcheng came to the door in person. The Zhongfu had never had such glory. This lineup shocked the entire Zhongfu.

Zhong Su, who heard the news, ran over to greet him, and led his family members to meet Du Fei and Steward Li on the spot.

There was no such thing as going into the house to sit, and there was no time, so Ying Xiaotang waved his hand, and his guards quickly cleared the place and dispersed the surrounding servants.

Wen Jianhui was terrified by this scene, and Wen Ruowei was also scared obediently.

Zhong Ruochen, who was at the back, had no expression on his face, and followed suit, bowing his head in silence.

Ying Xiaotang's red beard and beard looked a little scary, especially those tiger eyes, staring at the few people in front of him without anger and prestige, and the aura alone made them dare not breathe.

Ying Xiaotang didn't say anything, and said in a deep voice: "I don't want to go around now, so I might as well explain the situation directly. Ash Heng's father, A Jiezhang, was once my confidant, and someone took advantage of me when I was far away from the capital. I can't regret it because of this. Now someone is trying to kill his son, how can I sit idly by?
Ash Heng is in a very dangerous situation now, you must tell me honestly, has Ash Heng ever returned!

To tell you the truth, I don't blame the past. If I find out that there is a lie, I will immediately copy the Zhongfu, and none of you will live! "

Wen Jianhui and Wen Ruowei didn't know anything about it, they couldn't understand what they were saying, but they were also shocked.

The corner of Zhong Su's mouth twitched, and he realized that things were exactly as he thought. Once the two sides started fighting, no matter which side he would not be able to offend.

In fact, many people saw Yu Qing coming back, how could he guarantee that the news would not be leaked, Ying Xiaotang put a knife on his neck.

Du Fei and Li Butler looked at each other instead, seeing that Ying Xiaotang had come forward in person, which was somewhat convincing to them.

Butler Li immediately reminded Zhong Su, "Outsiders, you might as well speak up."

Zhong Su nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and said, "As for the Duke of Hui, Ashheng did come back, but he left again..." He told about Gao Zeyu's coming and taking him away.

After hearing this, Pei Qingcheng's face turned green, "What do they want to do?"

Ying Xiaotang said in a deep voice: "What else can we do? We underestimated the cruelty of those guys. They didn't even give a chance to survive this time. They were afraid that we would try to stop them, so they never planned to let Ashheng be arrested. Let's kill him directly!"

Wen Jianhui and Wen Ruowei were a little confused, unable to understand what happened suddenly.

Du Fei and Li Butler looked shocked, while Zhong Su frowned.

Ying Xiaotang had already turned around and shouted to his subordinates: "Split into four groups, rush to the four city gates immediately, be sure to find Ashheng and protect him!"

"Yes!" A group of soldiers led the way.

Ying Xiaotang also strode away, but after a few steps, there was a sudden pause, and everyone who followed stopped urgently.

Under the eyes of everyone, Ying Xiaotang turned around suddenly, walked up to Zhong Su again, and stared intently at Zhong Su's eyes.

Zhong Su's scalp was numb from his stare, his eyes dodged, and he bowed.

Ying Xiaotang reached out to support his chin, straightened his back, and said indifferently, "What are you afraid of?"

Zhong Su hurriedly said embarrassingly: "The Duke is mighty, but the villain is sincere and fearful."

Ying Xiaotang let go and patted him on the shoulder, "I said they were going to kill Ashheng directly, you didn't seem surprised at all, I just thought you were a calm person, why are you a flustered person?"

As soon as these words came out, Du Fei and Li Butler just glanced at Zhong Su. They knew the situation at the time and felt that Ying Xiaotang might be thinking too much.

Zhong Ruochen, who was at the end, suddenly raised his head, with a strange look in his red and swollen eyes, staring straight at his father.

With a trembling heartstrings, Zhong Su quickly explained: "The Duke's words are heartbreaking, and the villain is terrified!" After saying that, he was about to bow down.

However, Ying Xiaotang squeezed his shoulders tightly and did not let him kneel down. The pinched Zhong Su grinned, and it really hurt.

"It's fine, I hope I don't just follow the wind!"

Ying Xiaotang let go of him, patted him on the shoulder again, and then turned away indifferently, and a group of people followed quickly.

Zhong Su's legs went limp from fright, but he still didn't dare to be rude, and forced himself to lead the whole family obediently to see him off.

After Ying Xiaotang and his group disappeared completely, the family at the door felt relieved.

Only then did Wen Jianhui grab her husband's arm, and said in a panic, "What's the matter? Why did you say something about death or life? What happened to Shi Heng?"

Wen Ruowei also wanted to know.

Zhong Su shook off his wife's arm, and when he turned his head, he inadvertently met the eyes of his eldest daughter.

Seeing some kind of scrutiny from the eldest daughter's eyes, he averted his eyes and said angrily: "Don't you think it's not messy enough? Go back, and stay in the inner house honestly! Du Fei, let people Look at them, don't let them leave the backyard without my words." First, he climbed up the steps and entered the gate.

Going around the screen wall and returning to the main courtyard, he suddenly saw a red line rising in the sky in the distance, and the red line gradually dispersed into a pink mist. Zhong Su's eyes moved slightly, and he let out a light breath.

"Lao Li, Lao Du, what's the matter, what happened to Shi Heng?"

Later, Wen Jianhui entangled Du Fei and Li Butler again, begging and asking.

Those two are also in a dilemma. It may not be a good thing for such a woman to get involved in this kind of thing...

In the swaying carriage, Gao Zeyu had already changed into a light crimson fifth-rank official robe.

The carriage was stopped again, and after some questioning and answering, some guards who set up a card asked to check the inside of the carriage.

The escort outside stopped him: "Bold, didn't you see it? This is the car of Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. How can you allow you to inspect it at will?"

There was a dispute outside, Gao Zeyu said calmly: "Since it is military affairs, don't interfere, let them investigate!"

Now that he had spoken, there was nothing else to say, so the curtain was lifted, and sergeants on the left and right stretched their heads to peek inside.

The surrounding sergeants checked under the car again, and knocked on the car body to hear the sound.

Only after confirming that nothing is hidden, let a line go.

After passing another checkpoint, Gao Zeyu in the car had a smile on his lips. He realized that the higher-ups had the foresight to predict that the other party might jump over the wall in a hurry and send troops to set up checkpoints around the capital to intercept him, so he was asked to personally escort him.

This is already the second level he has passed after starting to set up the level.

At the back of the carriage, there were twelve accompanying yamen servants, and Yu Qing, who had already put on the clothes of yamen servants, was among them, and he was already simple and easy to look.

He couldn't help being nervous after being checked twice.

Fortunately, the checkpoints did not embarrass the official officials of the court. Seeing that they were all members of the government, they casually looked back and forth from them and let them go. Instead, the focus of inspection was on the carriage that Gao Zeyu was sitting in.

Not long after passing this checkpoint, I saw the city gate, and the road leads directly to the outside of the city.

The party did not leave the city directly, but turned into a warehouse near the city gate and in front of the city wall.

The staff took a rest after entering, and Gao Zeyu who opened the curtains in the car waved to Yu Qing.

Yu Qing came over immediately and got into the car.

Gao Zeyu said: "There are people from us at the city gate. After I go to communicate and confirm that there is no problem, you can watch my gestures and leave the city."

Yu Qing immediately cupped his hands: "Thank you, Mr. Gao."

"Hey!" Gao Zeyu sighed, "Wait in the courtyard and watch my gestures on the city wall to tell you to leave the city, and you leave immediately. When you leave the city, go away and fly away immediately. Let's talk about it after the situation is smooth."

"Yes." Yu Qing responded obediently.

Gao Zeyu stood up and patted him on the shoulder, before taking a step ahead.

He got out of the carriage and went straight out of the warehouse without stopping, and then went straight out of the gate of the warehouse. He took only one confidant official and went straight to the city gate.

Yu Qing, who came out later, was strolling in the yard, and after a while, he saw Gao Zeyu turning the stairs from the city gate to the tower, and saw him meeting a black-faced general waiting on the tower.

Leaving aside his confidants, Gao Zeyu and the guard stood in front of the wall and asked, "Is there a decree for the imperial court's arrest?"

The guard said: "Let's go, we've arrived, and now we're strictly investigating those who left the city."

"Okay!" Gao Zeyu smiled, raised his chin to Yu Qing who was in the courtyard under the city, and said in a low voice, "That's it, the person has already arrived, and you have to make arrangements later."

Guard: "Don't worry, I deliberately replaced the man on duty with my confidant brother, and he can be released from the city smoothly."

Gao Zeyu grabbed his wrist, "Okay, just wait for him to go out of the city, and set up a killer, don't miss it!"

Yu Qing, who was watching him in the yard, was taken aback for a moment, his expression gradually froze, and his eyes were fixed on the movement of the two's lips.

The guard sneered, "Don't worry, as long as he steps out of the city gate, he is absconding in fear of crime! I shouted loudly on the city to arrest and flee, which was the signal to do it. Shoot him into a hedgehog! Outside I have arranged a team of people to lurk on the road, just in case, if he can't escape, he will definitely die!"

Gao Zeyu stroked his beard and said in a low voice: "As long as it is done, it is a credit. As long as he is dead and convicted of escape, the Zhong family will not be able to escape the charge of assisting the fugitive. Let you and I go to Zhongfu to preside over the house raid!"

The guard smirked, "Understood, there is a lot of oil and water for them."

He immediately waved to the side, called a person, pointed at Yu Qing in the warehouse, whispered a few words to him, the latter nodded repeatedly, and then went down the tower.

After a while, the man came out from the city gate again and nodded to the guard on the tower.

The guard immediately said to Gao Zeyu, "Okay, it's done."

　Thank you "Brother Zhao zq" for your support!
