My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 55 Entering the Prince Jiang's Mansion

After watching Wang Deli leave, Zeng Anmin turned his head and looked towards Prince Jiang's Mansion.

"Master, are we going home?"

Dachun just rode over at this time and looked at him cautiously.

"Go to Prince Jiang's Mansion."

Zeng Anmin did not hesitate. He had a blank expression on his face. He gently pulled the reins with his fair hands and exerted force with his legs.

"Hi~"

The warhorse under his crotch neighed loudly, then turned its head and ran away on all fours.

Dachun also hurriedly rode his horse to catch up.

It takes at least half an hour's ride from Xuan Jing Si to Prince Jiang's Mansion, but Zeng Anmin shortened the journey to just two quarters of an hour.

"Xu~"

Zeng Anmin tightened the reins and the horse's speed slowly slowed down.

He stepped on the stirrups, dismounted, and looked up at the huge mansion in front of him.

【Jiangwang Mansion】

The three big characters shine brightly.

Outside the mansion were nearly two thousand armored soldiers, holding spears in their hands and standing straight and meticulously, surrounding the entire mansion. A murderous aura was overwhelming.

He didn't waste any words. After Dachun arrived, he led the way towards the gate of the mansion.

Halfway through the journey, a deep voice sounded:

"He who comes is stopped!!"

Looking up, he saw a soldier in armor looking at him sternly. The man was dressed in military uniform and had a serious expression. His square face was very eye-catching. He just stood there, like an iron tower.

Lin Rong, the Lieutenant General in Charge of Liangjiang County.

Dad's direct subordinate.

Zeng Anmin remained calm as he approached Lin Rong and took out the token from his waist:

"The left clerk of the Xuanjing Division, Zeng Anmin."

"Master Zeng?"

Hearing his name, Lin Rong's solemn face was slightly startled, then he pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist and stepped forward to greet him:
"What is Quan Fu doing here?"

"Such a big thing happened under my rule, how can my nephew not come?"

Zeng Anmin's face was solemn, and his voice was cold: "I just met Wang Deli and already know the important matter here. I hope Uncle Lin will be able to help me and let my nephew go in to investigate."

"Please!" Lin Rongxian did not hesitate at all, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

Zeng Anmin, the son of the governor, solved the case of the missing dragon map, the case of Zhang Lun, the case of Shen Jun, and the case of the rebellion of Prince Jiang...

The ins and outs of each case were compiled into files by the Xuan Jingsi and sent to major county governments for observation and study.

Zeng Anmin's reputation as a god at solving cases has spread throughout the officialdom of Fengqi Road.

"Thank you."

Zeng Anmin looked sharp and headed towards the mansion gate with Dachun.

"Open the door!!"

Lin Rong gave orders to the soldiers guarding the door from behind.

The two soldiers pushed the door open very swiftly.

Only then could Zeng Anmin clearly see the mansion behind the gate.

In the government compound, there is a guard post every five steps and a sentry every ten steps.

Every soldier had a serious expression, standing with a gun in hand, as straight as a pine tree.

This sentry post extends all the way to the inner courtyard.

Every place where a person can be hidden is within the range of the sentry post.

Dad takes the rebellion in Prince Jiang's Mansion very seriously.

Therefore, almost all the elite troops of Liangjiang County were stationed in Prince Jiang's Mansion.

There are at least two thousand people guarding the densely packed sentries.

There are even people patrolling back and forth.

"Commander Wang said that the disappearance of Prince Jiang did not cause any unusual movements?"

Zeng Anmin recalled the scene after Fang met Wang Deli on the street, and his eyes slowly raised to Lin Rong's face in front of him.

Lin Rong sighed, and tightened his hand on the hilt of the sword:
"Prince Jiang is a serious criminal, so he is being held in solitary confinement. However, due to his special status, we dare not treat him too harshly before the emperor's order comes down."

"They just locked him up in the room, doubled the sentries around the house, and Commander Wang even stood guard at the door day and night..."

At this point, Lin Rong's face showed a trace of bewilderment: "Even every other hour, my brother would personally go into the room to check. Before the 3:00 p.m., Prince Jiang was always in the room. At the 4:00 p.m., after my brother entered the room, there was no one in the room..." After hearing this, Zeng Anmin frowned and asked:

"Is there a secret passage in Prince Jiang's mansion?"

"Yes, they searched the entire palace on the first day of their visit. The tunnel led to a secret room. There was nothing in the secret room except some money."

Lin Rong replied in a deep voice: "So we deliberately chose a room far away from the secret passage to hold King Jiang for the longest time."

There is no secret passage... Could it have flown away?

Zeng Anmin pondered for a while.

This statement of the case did not have any highlights and did not provide him with any ideas.

"Let's go to the detention center first." He looked at Lin Rong expressionlessly.

"Okay, come with me."

Zeng Anmin followed Lin Rong and walked deeper into the mansion.

After a while, they arrived in front of a courtyard. There were at least two hundred sword-wielding guards in front and behind the courtyard, all of them were red-clothed men from the Xuan Jing Division.

"Meet Zeng Zuoli!"

When the group of men in red saw Zeng Anmin appear, they looked extremely respectful and saluted him.

"No gift."

Zeng Anmin pressed it down casually, not caring about it. His eyes fell on the door of the room.

The man in red looked around the entire room very closely.

Without hesitation, he opened the door, and then a foul smell hit him in the face.

The smell is pungent and has a faint fishy smell.

When his eyes fell on the toilets in the room, his expression became relieved.

Although he will not be tortured, he will not be allowed to have an easy life either.

It's not hard to understand why there's this smell after eating, drinking, defecating and urinating in the same room for so many days.

Zeng Anmin looked around and found that there was not much furnishing in the room.

There is only a bed, a table, a bookshelf, and a few basins.

But at this time it was already in a mess, obviously it was messed up when the soldiers came in to search after Prince Jiang disappeared.

Even the books and vases on the bookshelf were thrown into a pile on the ground, leaving only a bare bookshelf.

There is almost no other hair.

The roof was sealed tightly and there were soldiers all around.

Wanting to disappear from here out of thin air... is difficult, absolutely impossible.

"Secret room."

Zeng Anmin touched his chin and murmured:

"Could it be the Instant Breath Array?"

He suddenly remembered the Xuanzhen Sishu method that Qi Xianlin used when he captured him on Shuiyun Island last time.

Although it was cracked by my father with a wave of his hand.

But don't forget, there are only two warriors here, Lin Rong and Wang Deli.

It is not impossible to not notice the activation of the formation.

Zeng Anmin seemed to be thinking about something.

But he knew nothing about the formations of Xuanzhensi.

He had no idea how to perform it, whether there were any auxiliary tools, what means were needed, etc.

"Uncle Lin, do you know anything about the Xuanzhen Division's instantaneous formation?"

Zeng Anmin suddenly spoke and looked at Lin Rong.

Lin Rong was standing at the door at this time. Hearing this, a bitter smile appeared on his face:
"I had this idea when King Jiang disappeared out of thin air, but to cast an array, you need to place array spirit stones and gather array patterns. These rooms don't have any of these, so we can only rule them out."

"Then there is no way to perform it without these?"

Zeng Anmin immediately seized the loophole in this statement.

"Yes, but that requires the strength of a fourth-grade meridian gathering master from the Xuanzhen Division."

A familiar voice came from the door.

"Your Majesty the Governor."

Hearing this, Lin Rong immediately bowed respectfully.

Soon, with the sound of light footsteps, Zeng Shilin walked into the house with a serious face.
