Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

At the same time, Ji Shuyu and his party have already entered the mine.

It looks like a narrow entrance, but there is a hole inside.After walking about [-] steps, they found water flowing down from the cracks in the rocks, slowly converging into a narrow underground river, extending to the depths of the cave.

Walking down the river, Liu Shu's body was soon discovered.

"Boss, someone died. Judging by the blood, it should have gone inside." The subordinates didn't know what Liu Shu looked like.

Ji Shuyu stepped forward to take a look, and said in surprise, "This, this is."

Zhao Guanglin, who was originally standing behind the crowd, suddenly squeezed forward at this moment, looked at Liu Shu with wide eyes, and was horrified: "Oh! Isn't this, Liu Shu, the supervisory censor, Mr. Liu?! Has it become like this?"

Ji Shuyu stopped him with his sword: "Lord Zhao, don't get too close."

Zhao Guanglin retracted his neck in embarrassment: "Little General, Mr. Liu is a good official. Now that he died here for no apparent reason, you must find the murderer!"

"The case investigation is in the hands of the yamen, Mr. Zhao should worry more about it."

"Oh, yes, yes, I forgot about it!" Zhao Guanglin smiled awkwardly, "But this is the supervisory censor personally appointed by His Majesty, and I can't make the decision, so why not? I will immediately Send someone to send a letter to Song Yinian, the magistrate of Tongzhou, asking him to come over immediately."

Everything here is consistent with what Liu Shu said in the letter, so is he really planning to rebel?
Without waiting for Ji Shuyu to speak, Zhao Guanglin suddenly shouted: "King Jing killed Liu Shu, the censor, made weapons privately, mutilated loyal soldiers, and intended to plot rebellion! Hurry up and arrest him!"

But after seeing the scene in front of him clearly, Ji Shuyu suddenly regretted it.

Ji Shuyu was a little annoyed by his disturbance, and didn't want to talk to him, so he opened the envelope.

Zhao Guanglin was taken aback by him: "Little General, what's wrong with you? I haven't finished reading it yet, show me." Then he pulled out the letter paper.

The next moment, the sharp blade sank into the flesh, and he looked at Fu Mingjue in pain. The blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth was a bit dazzling in the darkness, and his body gradually limp, but he showed a strange smile.

Thinking about it this way, Ji Shuyu agreed.

When Zhao Guanglin saw the letter, his eyes flickered, and he still kept the confused look on his face: "Oh, little general, what do you think it is? Master Liu has hidden it so deeply, so there must be something hidden. People’s secrets, do you think he was killed because of this thing?”

The person fell down with a bang, dying with regret.

Zhao Guanglin had sharp eyes, and hurriedly came over: "This is the love letter left by Lord Liu before his death?!"

The stone room was at the deepest part of the mine, and it was very dark inside, and the only fire box that could illuminate it also dimmed a little bit with the passage of time.

One corner of the letter paper was soaked in water, and the ink stains on it were smeared, and the words on the front could barely be read.

He stood up slowly, and restored his original hoarse voice: "You should have found Liu Shu's body on the way here, right? I guess, you should have found the map on him as well."

Ji Shuyu squatted down and carefully inspected Liu Shu's body. His clothes below the waist were wet, presumably because he was soaked in water after his death, and then someone dragged him up.In addition, his body has long been stiff, and there is a hole in the clothes on his chest. There is only this wound on his body. It can be speculated that the murderer should have attacked at close range.

Fu Mingjue curled his lips coldly: "It turns out that Mr. Zhao has been waiting for this king here."

Fu Mingjue looked at the dagger that was still dripping blood in his hand with a complicated expression, it was clearly him.
At this time, there was a sudden rush of footsteps behind him, followed by a large flame, and Ji Shuyu's voice was the first to sound: "My lord, are you really here?"

All the soldiers drew their knives in unison, the cold light of the knives reflected the scorching flames, and the killing intent was overwhelming.

Ji Shuyu browsed carefully, his expression became more and more dignified, until he saw the last two blurred words, he was shocked suddenly: "Impossible!"

Ji Shuyu opened his skirt, and suddenly found a piece of blood-stained silk cloth. When he took it out, it was a blood letter, and it was a letter of love.

In this stone room, there was only Fu Mingjue alone. Under his feet was the corpse of "Jiangzhou", surrounded by neatly arranged sharp arrows and weapons, and countless gunpowder piled up into mountains.

With his permission, Zhao Guanglin sent someone out to report the news immediately.

That's right, the letter hidden on Liu Shu's body is indeed evidence of treason.It stated when and what month the iron mine was discovered, and that the workers in charge of the mine were all exiled prisoners. It also explained where their bodies were hidden and where the mined ore was shipped to, etc.

"In fact, Liu Shu didn't die by the dark river, but at the place where you stepped on." He stretched out his hand to grab the darkness, and continued, "You ask me why I brought you here, so I'll tell you now , for this—”

A love letter written in blood expresses that Liu Shu never regrets being an official in this life, every word is sincere, and every sentence is heart-pounding.But the strange thing is: it only wrote what he saw and heard in the northern border these days, and it didn't say who the murderer was.

Fu Mingjue looked at the person in front of him who was exactly the same as Jiangzhou, and said coldly, "You pretended to be Jiangzhou and lured me here, what is the purpose?"

Fu Mingjue narrowed his eyes, and before he could speak, the man suddenly rushed over with a knife in his hand, the icy cold light reflected in his eyes, his face twisted fiercely: "This is the last gift I will give you—"

After reading it, he was also taken aback and couldn't speak fluently: "This is evidence of treason!"

After finishing the words, he ruthlessly tore off the cloth covering it, and the shocking secret hidden underneath was finally revealed to his eyes.

And more importantly, all the clues point to a person in the end...

He smiled lightly, brushed past Fu Mingjue, and stopped before the thicker darkness.

He said word by word: "My lord, since I have been with you for so many years, please let my brother go, please let him go."

Zhao Guanglin was full of confidence and pointed at him angrily: "Fu Mingjue, now that the evidence of the crime is conclusive, you still haven't pleaded guilty?!"

The magistrate is not far from Yuan'an County, so if you hurry up, you can arrive there in an hour.

Ji Shuyu put away the silk cloth, rummaged through Liu Shu's body, and finally found a letter in the inner pocket of his clothes.

"Criminal evidence?" He turned back with a sneer, his eyes were gloomy and he wanted to kill someone, "Could it be that the criminal evidence you mentioned is a dead person?"

Zhao Guanglin showed a smile with a certain chance of winning, and took out the letter and the letter of love: "Master Liu exposed your crime with death, we all have seen it, and the weapons hidden here are physical evidence, we have heard what Jiang Zhou said before he died, we This is the witness!"

With that said, he turned his head to look at Ji Shuyu: "Little General, did you hear Jiang Zhou's words just now?"

Ji Shuyu glanced at Fu Mingjue with a look of embarrassment on his face. Although he didn't want to believe it, the evidence was in front of him and he had to admit it.

Now all the evidence points to Fu Mingjue, even if he is wronged, but Liu Shu and "Jiangzhou" are both dead, who can testify for him?
