Chapter 143 Prince

Changan.

East Palace.

Princess Wei came to the side room with tea and looked at Li Xian.

"His Royal Highness."

"You're here, any news?"

"There is no news about His Highness Li Gui. Our people have been lost."

"what?"

"Your Highness. Did something happen to His Highness Li Gui?"

"Don't panic. Liu Yuanwai from Liujiazhuang in Huzhou is my secret agent. You can ask him to look for it on your behalf. We must find those two blue shirts."

"Your Highness, where is the other Blue Shirt book?"

"You don't need to know this."

……

Youzhou.

In the quiet night, there was the roar of horse hooves, and the streets shook with the loud noise. Hu Jinghui and Li Yuanfang led the Qianniu Guards and the Imperial Guards to gallop through the streets at lightning speed.

The Imperial Guards advanced rapidly. Suddenly, Hu Jinghui suddenly reined in his horse and said to Li Yuanfang, who was catching up: "Yuanfang, I'm afraid it's too late. Let's do this. I'll ride into the camp alone, and you'll come later!" Li Yuanfang nodded: "Everything. Be careful!" Hu Jinghui flicked the reins, and the horse flew across the group and disappeared into the dark night.

At this moment, the sound of hoofbeats sounded in the school grounds, and then, a cold star broke through the sky. With a "bang", General Xiong's body shook violently. He lowered his head and looked at his chest. His chest had been pierced by the big wolf-fang arrow, half of the arrow protruded from his chest, and blood spurted out. He raised his head in despair. A horse rushed to the front like lightning, and with a flash of cold light, General Xiong's head was missing. His head flew four to five feet away, and blood spurted out wildly. All the troops exclaimed.

The person who came was none other than Hu Jinghui. The general on the side just woke up from a dream and quickly pulled out the steel knife from his waist and rushed forward. Hu Jinghui roared angrily, raised his sword and cut the general off his horse. The war horse neighed, and the men stood up. Hu Jinghui waved his steel knife and roared: "Anyone in the army who dares to do anything without permission - die!"

The sergeants were shocked by this majestic tiger general. Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu Yizhi turned his horse forward and shouted: "Brothers, don't listen to him..." Before he could finish his words, Hu Jinghui's knife had passed by his neck like lightning. Hu Jinghui stretched out his hand and lifted Wu Yizhi's head from his neck. The troops shouted to heaven and earth and were in chaos.

Hu Jinghui raised his head high above his head, his eyes widened, his eyebrows raised, and he shouted sternly: "Whoever dares to step forward will die first!" The troops stopped. At this moment, with the sound of thunderous hooves behind him, Li Yuanfang led the Qianniu Guards and the Imperial Guards to arrive. The archers with arrows on their bows surrounded the troops of the Army and Horse Division. Li Yuanfang shouted: "Fang Qian and Wu Yizhi were plotted to rebel and be executed. All troops put down their weapons and will be exempted from all charges!"

The soldiers hesitated. Hu Jinghui raised his horse and leapt into the midst of the troops. He raised his sword and chopped off the head of a captain. All the troops were shocked and put down their weapons.

At the same time, at the north gate, night duty officers and soldiers were patrolling continuously. Suddenly there was a rapid sound of horse hooves, and a group of imperial guards galloped over, led by a Qianniu guard. The captain of the army on duty at night hurried forward: "Sir, do you want to leave the city?"

Qian Niuwei shouted: "Get it!" The guards behind him swarmed forward and pushed the officer commander to the ground.

The captain said in surprise: "W-what is this for?"

Qian Niuwei raised Shang Fang's sword above his head and announced loudly: "The Imperial Envoy has an order. From today on, the imperial guards will take over the defense of the city gate. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

The commander of the army was so shocked that he could not say a word. Qian Niuwei shouted: "Order the North Gate officers and soldiers to disarm!" The Imperial Guards swarmed up and disarmed them.

……

In the inn.

Evilai said: "Master, do you want us to help?"

Zhang Yang waved his hand and said, "No, if Di Renjie can't even solve this problem, then he shouldn't be the prime minister."

Elai said, "Yes, young master." "How are Wang Zhi's preparations going?"

"Fifteen mid-level officers are ready and can be deployed at any time. Everyone drinks the champion red."

"Very good, how about the restaurant?"

"It will be open in five days."

"Very good, this is the recipe I wrote. Leave it to the chef to learn from it." After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he handed Elai a stack of paper.

"Yes, young master. You are truly a literary star. You can even write recipes."

"Stop boasting and keep an eye on the situation outside."

……

At night, in the main hall of the Governor's Mansion, Judge Dee kept wandering around. There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the official of the Imperial Envoy came in and reported: "General Tiger has taken over the Army and Horse Department of the Five Cities, and the four gates of Youzhou are also in our hands!"

Di Gong's face showed joy: "Tell Hu Jinghui and Li Yuanfang to arrest Fang Qian for rebelling against the party according to the list, and make sure to catch them all!" The official agreed loudly and walked out quickly.

In less than half an hour, the imperial guards led by Hu Jinghui rushed into each government building, arrested all the officials who should be arrested, and loaded four or five prison vans. At the same time, at the Bingma Si Yamen, Li Yuanfang led the imperial guards to escort a dozen generals from the Bingma Si Mansion out of the gate. Fang Qian's rebels were almost wiped out in one fell swoop.

Let's talk about the Governor's Mansion. The house was in chaos. Fang Qian was hurriedly collecting gold, silver, and soft goods. A black shadow slowly fell in front of him. But he suddenly raised his head and saw a man in black standing in front of him, it was Yu Feng. Fang Qian's pupils immediately dilated: "I, I, I have no choice but to..." Yu Feng gritted his teeth and cursed: "What a beast! You followed Shang Feng's orders and ignored the overall situation for your own personal gain, which ruined many years of hard work. Once in a while!"

Fang Qian fell to his knees with a thump, trembling. Little did they know that the guards led by Hu Jinghui had been tightly surrounded outside the governor's house. The guard sergeant had been disarmed, and the imperial guards were marching in to kill the second hall...

Suddenly I saw a hand gently pry open a few gray bricks, revealing a secret door underneath, and my hand gently grasped the handle. At this time, there was a burst of people shouting and screaming outside the house, and the guards had already rushed to the front of the second hall. The black shadow was startled, quickly covered a few square bricks, and jumped up to the beam of the second hall.

Hu Jinghui rushed in with his people, and saw the room in a mess, with a pile of documents burning in the brazier. Fang Qian, the governor, sat motionless with his back to the door. Hu Jinghui shouted: "Fang Qian, on the order of the imperial envoy, I will arrest you at home!" Fang Qian remained motionless. Hu Jinghui stepped forward and turned his body around. Fang Qian's head was tilted to the side, with a wisp of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth and a weird smile on his face. The death situation was extremely terrifying. Even though Hu Jinghui was bold, he couldn't help but take a step back.

At night, in the morgue behind the Governor's Mansion, Zhao Chuanchen's body was lying quietly on the couch, with a widower lying in front of him and inspecting it carefully. Di Gong walked in and asked what was going on. Wu Zuo raised his head and said, "Sir, this Master Zhao did die suddenly and unexpectedly."

Judge Dee was stunned: "Are you sure?"

Wu Zuo said: "There are no wounds on the body, and there are no signs of poisoning. Judging from the degree of pupil dilation, there are no signs of painful struggle, so it should be a normal death. It is likely that he had an old illness and his heart stopped due to excitement. "

Judge Dee walked to the body and looked at it quietly. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly untied Zhao Chuanchen's bun, letting his hair fall down. Duke Di put his hand into the root of his hair and touched it gently. After a long time, he shook his head and murmured: "Did he really die suddenly? "

Wu Zuo said: "This should be certain."

Judge Dee wondered: "There really are such coincidences in the world. No, no. If it was a cardiac arrest, why didn't it stop early and late? Just when he was about to tell the whereabouts of Guan Yin, he suddenly died. He would never It could be an accidental death, what don’t they want me to hear?”

Wu Zuo seemed to be in a fog: "Sir, what did you say?"

Judge Di did not answer, his eyes were staring into the air, and the scene of the interrogation of Zhao Chuanchen just passed quickly before his eyes. Suddenly he raised his head and stared at Wuzuo with his eyes. Wu Zuo felt a little scared when he saw it, and he forced a smile and said, "Sir, what's wrong?"

Judge Dee picked up the functional ripper knife from the side of the couch and handed it over: "Open his chest."

Wuzuo was surprised: "Sir, it is a big taboo to disembowel someone without going through the suffering master!"

Judge Dee ordered: "Let's do it!"

Wu Zuo took the knife, gritted his teeth, and slashed...
