Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

Not a single detail will change.

As a result, the same is true of nature.

Exactly what he expected.

"This is?"

"Discovery!"

At this moment, some exclamations suddenly came from the courtyard.

Many yamen servants were attracted by that voice.

The envoys standing at the door were also attracted by the sound.

"what happened?"

"It seems to have discovered something."

"I discovered it. Could it be that...it's really Anthony..."

The envoys couldn't help whispering.

Anthony's eyes widened sharply, his expression changed, and he said, "Impossible, I'm not a murderer, it's impossible to find anything."

As he spoke, he was about to enter the courtyard.

But at this time, Abao held a knife directly in front of Anthony, blocking Anthony's way.

He said: "Stop, my lord, has he allowed you to leave?"

Anthony's face was livid.

But he also knew that he couldn't communicate with Abao, a tough guy like him.

He looked at Shen Lian and said, "Commander Shen, Commander Shen, I'm going to see what's going on. I'm not the murderer at all."

Shen Lian looked at Anthony calmly and said, "Anthony, it's not that I want to embarrass you. Please ask everyone, do you want you to leave our sight now?"

Anthony heard this and couldn't help but look at the others.

I saw that the envoys were staring at me very vigilantly at this moment, as if they were afraid that if they didn't pay attention, they would slip away.

Those eyeballs were almost touching himself.

Shen Lian laughed and continued: "Just stand here and wait quietly. If anything is found inside, it will be sent out soon."

"At that time, if there is really a problem, we will give you a chance to explain, but now... you'd better not move, otherwise once you disappear from our sight, how can we be sure that you are not up to something?"

"I….…"

Anthony looked ugly.

He felt that there seemed to be something wrong.

But he also knew that Shen Lian was right.

He can't move at all now.

Otherwise, there is no need to go to see what Dali Temple found, he would have exposed it himself.

Therefore, he can only wait!
No matter how anxious you are, you can only wait.

Seeing Anthony's anxious look, Shen Lian calmly withdrew his gaze and looked at the courtyard opposite again, as if he had no curiosity about what happened in the courtyard.

Wang Chengdao frowned and glanced at Anthony. Seeing Anthony's anxious look, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Is it really Anthony? If it is him..."

A bright light suddenly flashed in his eyes: "If it is him, that is the best."

Everyone else stood on tiptoe and looked into the No. [-] courtyard.

They didn't know as much as Shen Lian, and they weren't as calm as Wang Chengdao. They were really curious to death at this moment.

What exactly was found.

The murderer, is it Anthony?
And at this moment, a group of people suddenly walked out of the room in the No. [-] courtyard.

The person walking at the front was Qin Ziyi, the young minister of Dali Temple.

And Zhao Xianye was holding a tray in his hand.

On the tray, there is something.

Everyone looked carefully with their eyes wide open, and found that... the thing on the tray was none other than a knife!

And this knife, they are also very familiar!
This is...the Tang Dynasty Hengdao!

Datang Hengdao!

One of the sabers of the Tang soldiers!

The two most popular weapons for killing enemies in Datang are Hengdao and Modao!

Mo Dao is suitable for cavalry combat. On the battlefield, Mo Dao is invincible.

The Hengdao, compared with the Modao, is smaller and suitable for carrying around.

Therefore, ordinary guards will wear horizontal knives when performing tasks.

Therefore, these envoys are also very familiar with the Tang Dynasty Hengdao.

These days, the soldiers who protect them at the station are wearing this kind of weapon.

Because of this, they recognized at a glance that the tray Qin Ziyi was dragging contained a horizontal knife.

It's just... where did this horizontal knife come from?
Doubt flashed in the eyes of Wang Chengdao and others

Anthony, the envoy of the Great Food Kingdom, suddenly changed his expression, and when he saw the horizontal knife again, his expression changed completely.

Shen Lian glanced at Anthony, whose expression changed, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

At this time, Qin Ziyi walked up to Shen Lian. He nodded to Shen Lian and said, "Commander Shen, we found a secret place under the loose floor under the couch in Anthony's room in Tiangang No. [-] Courtyard. grid, and inside the hidden grid, there is this horizontal knife."

Qin Ziyi did not rattle everyone's appetite and directly told the whole story.

And when everyone heard the words, the look they looked at Anthony this time also changed.

Sure enough, it was found in Anthony's room.

And it's still hidden in the dark compartment under the floor.

If it were said that Anthony had no ghosts in his heart, no one would really believe it.

And, they suddenly remembered.

In the middle of the night, when Shen Lian came here, he asked Wu Zuo what the murder weapon might be, and Wu Zuo gave the answer at that time.

Moreover, Shen Lian told everyone directly without letting Wu Zuo and the others hide it.

The murder weapon, with an [-]% probability, is Datang's horizontal knife!

At that time, some envoys also secretly accused Datang, thinking that it was Datang.

It's just that Shen Lian was asking everyone at that time, so he didn't know.

But now, Qin Ziyi and the others discovered the hidden compartment and Hengdao in Anthony's room.

Does this... does it mean anything?
Everyone's eyes were firmly locked on Anthony.

They feel that they have found the murderer through their clever minds.

As for Shen Lian, until now, his expression was as serious and indifferent as usual.

He looked at Anthony and said calmly, "Anthony, can you explain to us why my Tang knife is hidden in your room?"

"And he's still hiding in the dark compartment under your couch....This house has just been repaired not long ago, and this officer is still watching the repairs. Why doesn't this officer know that the floor under your couch is loose, and the inside Are there any hidden compartments?”

"So, can you explain it to us?"

As soon as Shen Lian said these words, the envoys became more convinced of their guesses.

Obviously, the secret compartment didn't originally exist.

It appeared after Anthony moved in.

It is self-evident who made it.

Anthony's face was a little pale, and sweat trickled down his forehead unknowingly. He said, "This... there is a secret grid, and there is a reason."

"This horizontal knife...I admit that I hid it."

"But I didn't kill people. I hid this horizontal knife just to collect it."

He looked at Shen Lian and said, "Maybe you don't believe it, but in fact, although I am a civil servant, I like weapons very much, so I often collect various weapons."

"And the Great Tang Hengdao is famous far and wide, so I hid it well, thinking that when I return to the Great Food Kingdom, I will bring it back to the Great Food Kingdom for collection."

"I really just wanted to collect it. I definitely didn't use it to kill anyone!" Shen Lian glanced at Anthony and said, "Collection?"

"Anthony, do you think we will be satisfied with this answer?"

Those envoys all shook their heads.

Shit collection!
Who the hell would keep a knife for nothing!
And it's hidden so deep.

Anyway, they don't believe it.

Anthony hurriedly said: "It's true, you can ask anyone in the Great Food Kingdom, they all know my hobbies."

"Okay, let's not say whether your statement is true or not."

Shen Lian then said, "I would like to ask you, has this knife of yours ever been stained with blood?"

Anthony shook his head quickly: "Of course not, I just collected it, and I have never used it to do bad things."

"That's easy."

Shen Lian said: "The Tubo prince was brutally decapitated by the murderer, so the murderer's weapon must be stained with blood."

"And blood is different from other things. After being stained with blood, within three days, there is no way to wash it off with water."

"so….…"

Shen Lian winked at Ah Bao and said, "Ah Bao, bring over a few more knives, make sure they are not stained with blood."

Abao didn't understand the reason why Shen Lian did this.

But there was no delay, and some knives were quickly found.

He put these knives on the table and said, "These are just issued by the Ministry of Industry, and I haven't seen blood yet."

Shen Lian nodded slightly, and then said: "Go and get Anthony's so-called collection of knives to put them inside."

Abao quickly followed suit.

Then, Shen Lian said calmly: "Okay, let's just wait quietly."

"Wait?"

"Wait for what?"

All the envoys were at a loss.

They really couldn't figure out what Shen Lian was doing.

But Shen Lian has already shown them so many abilities that they are now convinced of Shen Lian and subconsciously in their hearts.

So Shen Lian said to wait, but no one refuted it.

Everyone was like this, staring blankly at those horizontal knives.

Suddenly, some flies flew over.

The flies were swaying left and right above the knives, as if they were looking for something.

Then, everyone suddenly discovered that those flies had landed on the same knife and were resting on that knife.

And that knife didn't belong to anyone else, it was a horizontal knife found in Anthony's room.

Some envoys were still at a loss.

But Anthony, Wang Chengdao and others seemed to understand something, and their expressions changed.

Anthony shook his head: "Impossible! This is impossible! Why? Why is this happening?"

"what happened?"

"Anthony, what are you doing?"

And the envoy asked puzzledly.

At this time, Shen Lian's voice was heard: "Fortunately, the flies are still active now, otherwise I would not be able to find a suitable solution for a while."

"Flies are different from us. They are more sensitive to smells. Flies like blood, and a little blood smell is enough to make them come here."

"Even if the blood has been washed by water, some of it will still remain, and the faint smell of blood will still radiate out."

"So, here are the flies."

"And there are so many knives here, they didn't even look at the other knives, they only fell on Anthony's knife, what does this mean, I don't need to explain it myself, everyone can understand it, right?"

All the envoys suddenly seemed to be enlightened.

Their eyes widened suddenly, all staring at Anthony.

"It's really you!"

"No wonder you questioned Commander Shen's conclusion at the beginning. It turns out that the murderer was you. You were worried that Commander Shen would find you, so you deliberately questioned Mr. Qin!"

"We almost got scammed by you!"

"Fortunately, Commander Shen is aware of everything!"

"It's really too suspenseful! If it weren't for Commander Shen, wouldn't it be possible for you to escape!"

"Commander Shen, you are so powerful!!!"

These envoys spoke one after another.

Anthony's face turned completely pale, and he was extremely dazed.

why?
Why is this happening?

Until now, he still doesn't understand what happened.

As for Shen Lian, he just looked at Anthony calmly and asked, "You said your knife was not stained with blood."

"But it turned out that he was stained with blood within three days!"

"Anthony, why are you lying?"

"You...what else can you say?"

After Shen Lian's few words, Anthony was speechless after asking.

Anthony's eyes widened. Although his mind was as deep as the sea, but at this moment, he couldn't react to such a sudden encounter.

He never expected that the Hengdao that he secretly hid and was about to bring back to the Dashi Kingdom for research would be stained with blood within three days.

And this, he really didn't know at all.

So, at this moment, he really has nothing to say.

He also knew that no matter what he said, these people would not believe him.

After all, I just said so firmly that the knife was not stained with blood.

As a result, reality slapped me hard.

So... In the eyes of others, it's me who lied first.

Then if you say anything else, they don't trust them, so there is no problem.

At this moment, Anton, you just feel extremely sad in your heart.

What's going on here?
At this moment, Anthony, the all-powerful Prime Minister of the Great Food Kingdom, felt deeply powerless.

Forget about the others.

Just himself... After following Shen Lian's step-by-step deduction and finding himself, he felt that he was the murderer.

After all, all kinds of clues and evidence point to him with almost ironclad evidence.

Based on his experience in settling cases in the Great Food Kingdom, if he encountered such a thing, he would never hesitate and close the case immediately.

So, because of this, he was even more desperate.

Even more sad and angry!
When he came to Datang, he obviously coveted Datang and wanted to seek benefits from Datang, but who knew that he would become a murderer in the end?
This, what is going on here?
And... who killed Qihela!

Who did I take the blame for?
Anthony couldn't help looking at the crowd, those envoys were looking at him with disgust at the moment.

Seeing myself looking at them, they all responded to me viciously, even the envoys of small countries who were usually afraid of me, it was the same at this moment, making no secret of their disgust.

Anthony frowned.

The envoys of these small countries should not have the courage to frame themselves.

Who would that be?

He continued to look at the envoys of other great powers.

Seeing Tie Le's eldest prince, A Guda, at this time A Guda looked at him in surprise, as if he was surprised that he was the murderer.
