Chapter 487, Raise an army to hold the culprit accountable?
Seeing Shen Que speechless, Shen Wuxiang also felt that his anger was unreasonable.

This is the bedroom of Crown Princess Dongguo Chenxi. Shen Leyou is dressed like this, so the relationship between them is self-evident.

Unless someone deliberately discredited him by saying that he had changed his clothes after his death.

Of course, this is extremely unlikely.

This yard is full of Shen's people. It is not easy to cause trouble under their noses.

Except killing.

The most important thing is, considering Shen Wuxiang's rich experience in killing people, it would be difficult to deceive his eyes whether the crime scene has been artificially destroyed or disguised.

He was very sure that Shen Leyou had been wearing that set of pajamas when he was still alive.

Under what circumstances would one wear such an outfit?
I don’t dare to think about it, I really don’t dare to think about it.

"Who was the first to arrive at the scene?" Shen Wuxiang asked.

"Grandmaster Zhong Daoling."

"Grandmaster?" Shen Wuxiang's eyes were slightly stern, and he asked, "Has the murderer been caught?"

"No, he ran away."

"."

Anyone who can escape from the Grandmaster's eyes must be either extremely powerful or
The grandmaster released the water.

Which one is the truth?
"Where is the Grand Master now?"

"In Ningzhen Villa."

"I'll go see him."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Soon Shen Wuxiang arrived at Ningzhen Villa.

It was still the little Taoist boy Ping An who opened the door. He bowed and said, "Master asked me to come and greet the military minister. Military minister, please come in."

"The Grand Master likes quietness, so don't come in, wait outside."

Shen Wuxiang gave instructions to the guards around him, without even looking at Ping An, he walked past him with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, and went to the viewing stone pavilion in the courtyard and sat down.

Zhong Daoling was making tea. When he saw Shen Wuxiang coming, he poured the tea from the pot into the empty cup. Then he raised his hand slightly, and the cup of hot tea flew lightly in front of Shen Wuxiang.

"Military Prime Minister, please give it a try. Although it is not as good as the snow bamboo from Luojia Mountain, it can still moisten your throat."

Shen Wuxiang casually grabbed the teacup floating in front of him, held it in his palm, brought it in front of him and took a sip.

"It's mellow and sweet, with a refreshing taste. Is this rock tea produced in Wuyi Mountain? Yes, it's about 70 years old. It's rare in Xinxing, so drink a little less."

"The military minister knows about tea." Zhong Daoling said with a smile.

"How can a common man like me know anything about tea? I just drink a few sips randomly. I can drink the one that costs 3,000 to 5,000 yuan per catty, and I can also drink the one that costs 3 to 5 yuan per ounce. The main point is to drink whatever I like."

"A military minister is rough but meticulous, and has a broad mind." Zhong Daoling was hinting at something.

You keep shouting that you are a crude warrior, but in the end you have put this huge country into your pocket.

shameless.

"I should do my job well. The king trusts me and uses me, and has entrusted me with important tasks. I cannot fail to live up to his kindness."

"King? How can there be a king in the Phoenix Empire?" Zhong Daoling said jokingly.

"As long as there is no bad news, the king will always be alive and will always be the king of our Phoenix Empire." Shen Wuxiang said with a serious expression, "Of course, even if something unspeakable happens, His Highness Tianque is capable enough to defend the dignity of the royal family and hold the power of the empire."

Zhong Daoling knew that Shen Wuxiang was implicitly telling him that they would not usurp the throne.

At least there will be no usurpation of the throne in the short term.

This is good. The Shen family needs time to quell the war and consolidate their position. The Zhong family also needs time to accumulate strength, win over allies, and find an opportunity to break the deadlock. "The military minister is thoughtful." Zhong Daoling raised his teacup and toasted him with tea instead of wine.

Shen Wuxiang also raised his glass and drank the tea in it.

"Is there unrest in the palace today?" Shen Wuxiang looked at Zhong Daoling and asked.

"Isn't this why the Prime Minister came here?" Zhong Daoling looked directly into Shen Wuxiang's eyes and asked back.

"Shen Leyou is dead. I heard that the Grand Master was the first to arrive at the crime scene, so I wanted to ask who killed my son of the Shen family?"

"Is the military minister here to call for punishment?"

"I dare not, I just want to seek the truth."

"The truth?" Zhong Daoling's dark face rarely showed a smile, like a thousand-year-old iron tree blooming, not stunning, but unusually strange: "I also want to know the truth. Shen Leyou led the crowd to protect the palace and the safety of the royal family, so how did he enter the Crown Princess's courtyard?"

"."

Shen Wuxiang was speechless.

Catch thieves and stolen goods, and catch traitors and couples.

Shen Leyou's behavior can be said to have caught him red-handed.

There is no way to wash it.

Could he also say that Shen Leyou was killed and thrown into the Crown Princess's courtyard to frame her?

Playing house as a kid?

Do this in front of the Grand Master.
Pointless.

Seeing Shen Wuxiang remained silent, Zhong Daoling's sarcastic smile became even stronger: "Have you seen the pajamas that Shen Leyou is wearing, Prime Minister? Does the Shen family have such a special hobby?"

"."

"The military minister is also a man. He should know how much damage this matter will cause to your reputation if it gets out. Shen Leyou is disrespectful to his father and the emperor. He is trampling on the face of our Zhong family. Are all the men who bully our Zhong family dead?"

"This is Shen Leyou's crime, and his death is not a pity." Shen Wuxiang expressed his opinion, saying: "My Shen family will definitely give the Grandmaster an explanation."

"Okay, I'll wait for your explanation." Seeing Shen Wuxiang surrender, Zhong Daoling readily accepted it.

Now is not the time to turn against each other completely.

"I came to the Grand Master to apologize. Shen Leyou's behavior is a shame to the Shen family. We will definitely eliminate the impact and give His Highness and the Grand Master a satisfactory answer."

"The second is to catch the thief. Someone broke into the palace at night and killed people. The impact of this incident is also bad. I heard that the Grand Master fought with the thief, but he ran away?"

"Yes." Zhong Daoling raised the teacup and savored it carefully and calmly.

He felt very uncomfortable in his heart and he also felt humiliated.

I am a grandmaster, how could I let that thief get away?
"Who can escape from a Grandmaster?" Shen Wuxiang looked at him with a hawk-like gaze, questioning and probing: "He is also a Grandmaster?"

"He's not a grandmaster, but his strength is quite impressive. When I rushed over, Shen Leyou was already dead."

"The one who can kill Shen Leyou must be at least a minor master. A minor master is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot in front of a great master. How dare the light of a firefly compete with the sun and the moon?"

Zhong Daoling sighed softly and said, "When I was about to strangle him with the White Jade Palace, I heard a bell ring."

"A chime?"

"The sound of the bell on Bailu Mountain." Zhong Daoling said, "Xuanyuan Mingjing struck the giant bell, breaking my Dao rhyme and destroying my palace, which gave the thief a chance to escape."

Shen Wuxiang's face was gloomy: "Xuanyuan Mirror?"

"Yes, Grandmaster Xuanyuan Mingjing. He is the only one who can snatch the person away from me." Zhong Daoling said proudly.

Don’t you, the Shen family, want to find out the truth?
I have now dragged that old bastard Xuanyuan Mingjing into the game. I want to see how you are going to get an explanation from Xuanyuan Mingjing.
