I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 344
Du Heng sat down in the cell of Jiefu with a dejected expression on his face.

Speaking of which, the room given to him is not bad, it is not as gloomy as the prison in Chengdu, and it is far different from the treatment of Sun Er on the rack.

But facing the same diet as the servants outside, he was not interested at all.

And outside the cell, there were three tables, and the tolerances seconded from the Chengdu County Government all ate here.

There were two people on the table in the middle, the county captain Chen Hai and the head catcher Wu Dacheng.

Normally, a county lieutenant is already a high-ranking official in the yamen, so it is naturally impossible to have dinner with a few arresters, but now he is in the Jiefu, where is there a private room for him?
Chen Hai is proficient in criminal names, he can be regarded as a capable official, not to mention that he can solve cases like a god, but he will never hide any troubles in Chengdu City from his ears.

Wu Dacheng, the head of the shop, is nearly sixty years old, wearing a black work uniform, a flat scarf on his head, and a square face.There is an iron ruler pinned to the back of his waist, and it is an existence that frightens the gangsters of all sizes in Chengdu. He has handled countless cases and is known as the "God Catch".

Wu Dacheng held his rice bowl and looked at Du Heng in the cell while eating, paying close attention to every expression of the other party.

Chen Hai smiled and said: "Captain Wu, let's eat, don't look at it, there is probably nothing to be dug out of Mr. Du Liu."

Wu Dacheng also nodded after hearing Chen Hai's voice, "This Du Liu doesn't seem like someone who dares to participate in the assassination of Jieshuai. With this ghostly appearance, who dares to conspire with him? But this is the next step."

Chen Haidao: "Although some things are said to be investigated by us, in the final analysis, what we can find out is not that important. For example, the current evidence alone is enough to blame the Du family. Forget about it, the assassination Except for the master who ran away, the rest of the criminals were captured, but these people's mouths are really hard, and they can't be pried open for a while. Tell me, what else can break the situation?"

"That's true."

Hearing Wu Dacheng's hesitation, Chen Hai also frowned.

"Criminal device."

"You mean the military crossbow? This."

Chen Hai's frown deepened, the military crossbow is not very easy to get involved with the military.

Wu Dacheng looked back at Du Heng, then lowered his voice and followed Chen Haidao: "County officer, I know what you are worried about. This matter is actually not up to us to decide, but it is not for the Jiefu side." We can deal with it casually, if you are worried, why not talk to Judge Xu?"

Chen Hai has worked in the yamen for nearly 20 years, from a small clerk to a high-grade county captain. Although he is not a serious person, he has already entered the official career. He is an official of the court. Bottom.

He is from Chengdu, so he naturally knows the weight of the four great masters in Sichuan, and of course he doesn't want to offend them.

But on the other hand, the person who was assassinated this time was Marquis Wu'an, the Jiedu envoy of Jiannan Road, who was their Shangguan's Shangguan.

As the tolerances for handling the case, they can only go all out without expressly expressing it, and dare not slack off in the slightest.

After finishing the meal full of thoughts, Chen Hai brought Wu Dacheng to the office in the east courtyard of the Jiefu, and found Xu Yinglong who had also just eaten and was drinking tea.

"Meet Judge Xu."

"Meet Judge Xu."

Xu Yinglong nodded when he saw the two people coming, he was the staff member of the Jiefu who was seconded from the Chengdu Mansion and was directly in charge of the assassination case.

"But what's the matter?"

"Back to Judge Xu, I discussed it with Wu Butou, and I feel that there is nothing to dig for Du Heng and Sun Er at present, but we can start the investigation from the military crossbow used by the thieves to assassinate, but we are light-hearted. There is no right to meddle in this matter.”

Xu Yinglong smiled when he heard this, "So it's about this matter, you are all old criminals, and you don't know how many cases you have handled, so you just remembered the matter of Junnu?"

The two looked at each other and could only smile awkwardly.

Xu Yinglong didn't intend to pursue it, but shook his head and said: "As for the matter of the military crossbow, the commander-in-chief yesterday should have someone compile the records about the crossbow in the army. Compared with today, there will be results before sunset. You guys wait Just wait for the result, and when the result comes out, you can follow the map to find out.”

As soon as Xu Yinglong finished speaking, a dental soldier came over to deliver a message, "Judge Xu, Commander-in-Chief Jie is calling."

"Understood, I will go to you to interrogate Du Heng later. I want to find out everything about Li Yi. I am telling Du Heng that the current crime is not for occupying the military field. No one can keep him. I want to live. Just take out all the stuff in his stomach, who did he follow in the matter of Juntian before? Let him think about it, whether it is up to him"

Both Chen Hai and Wu Dacheng's scalps felt numb after hearing this. Sure enough, things will not be so simple.

After Xu Yinglong left, Chen Hai sighed and said, "Jun Nu Jun Tian, ​​this matter is going to break the sky."

In the Jietang of the West Courtyard, the main staff and subordinates of the Jiefu, Liu Xianke, Xu Yinglong, Wang Luqiu, Zhang Gao, Cui Fengyi, Cui Shuji, and Wulang Liulang among the Fu family brothers.

Except for one Zhao Yuanqi, everyone else can be said to be Fu Jinchuan's cronies.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Liu Xianke said, "Du Dun has been here just now, and the Du family has made it clear that Wei Jieshuai follows the lead. In addition, the Li family in Yanting was initiated by the Du and Li families. It is easy for the Yan and Yang families to talk about it." , whether it is salt affairs or Dutian, these two things will continue to be done.”

"The Du family is already a fish in the sky, so if you are handsome, how about this Li family?"

"Jie Shuai is in Yanting, passing by Li's house, and he has been kind to them in protecting them. If Jie Shuai hadn't rescued them in time, the Li family might have been destroyed by Hong Lian."

"In this way, the situation can be opened? As long as the salt affairs and Dutian can continue to do well, the wealth in the middle of Shu is enough for the court to tide over the difficulties, and it can be regarded as an explanation for Shangjing."

Several staff members breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't expect that the incident in Central Shu would be broken by an accidental assassination.

And Fu Jinchuan's ability to endure the temptation of the Du family in one breath is commendable.

After all, it is a prominent family for hundreds of years, and it is a country of abundance in the middle of Sichuan. It is conceivable that the family accumulation must be as huge as mountains and seas.

Who can resist the opportunity to have a bite?
At this time, Cui Fengyi said: "Jie Shuai, I have checked all the military crossbows in and out of Shu during these days. The Songzhou battle, including the Puzhou battle, was only damaged and nothing was lost. The military crossbows have been compared with the military crossbows of various armies and batches. It can be confirmed that they are yellow crossbows issued by the Jiang Zuoyuan in Guanzhong Xijing in the 19th year of Xuanjia. Distributed to the dental soldiers of the Governor's Mansion."

Cui Fengyi's words made everyone's faces change after hearing it, especially Zhao Yuanqi, who showed a look of horror.

Because the dental soldiers of the Dudu Mansion were all in charge at that time.
After the establishment of the Jiannan Jiedu Mansion, the original Yizhou Dudu Mansion was also subject to restraint, and Fu Jinchuan was also the Yizhou Governor. The [-] Yabing to which Zhao Yuanqi belonged naturally belonged to the Jiefu, and participated in several times with Fu Jinchuan war.

The whereabouts of each important weapon such as the military crossbow must be clear, even if it is completely damaged, it must be recorded.

As for the three hundred crossbows, Zhao Yuanqi clearly remembered that all the damage, replacement and use were under his control.

In addition to "loaning" twenty of the guards of the Shu Palace.
