Catching Monsters

Chapter 92 Catching people
The coroner standing nearby stood there, somewhat at a loss as to what to do. He also did not want to listen to these two bigwigs of the Imperial Guard discussing the case.

The more you hear about this kind of thing, the less good it does to you.

But the other party didn't say anything, and he didn't dare interrupt.

Fortunately, Jiang Yun also noticed that the coroner's expression was not very natural.

"Thank you for your hard work. Please leave first."

The coroner felt relieved and clasped his fists, saying, "I will be waiting outside. If you have any further requests, please call me over at any time."

After the coroner left, Wei Huaian walked back and forth around the body, "Brother Jiang, how do you think we can solve this case?"

Jiang Yun squatted beside the corpse and said thoughtfully: "Zhang Wenqi just returned to the capital and was highly valued by His Majesty, whether it was the Red Lotus Sect or the ministers in the court."

"Everyone knows that if we kill him, things will get really bad..."

"But even so, we still have to kill him."

The person who killed him must be in the capital.

Otherwise, action would be taken on his way to Beijing.

He will not be allowed to take up his post in the capital smoothly.

"Ministry of War." Jiang Yun frowned, turned his head and said to Wei Huaian, "Master Zhang Wenqi has just arrived at the Ministry of War. Could this be related to this?"

"Brother Qian, go ask Steward Li who Lord Zhang was drinking with during the day."

"to make."

Jiang Yun searched for a while and came to Zhang Wenqi's study, searching to see if he could find any useful clues.

Wei Huaian followed behind him and when he saw him flipping through the documents on the table, he hurried forward to help.

After searching for a while, the two found nothing.

Why doesn’t Mr. Zhang develop the good habit of writing a diary?

There is no clue at all. How should I investigate this?

Soon, Qian Buchou came running back, panting: "After asking, it was clear that he was drinking with Jia Xuyang and Zheng Zailu from the Ministry of War."

"This Jia Xuyang is a deputy minister of the Ministry of War, a fifth-rank official."

"Zheng Zailu is the head of the Ministry of War, a sixth-rank official..."

Hearing these two names, Wei Huaian frowned, put his hand to his mouth and whistled.

Soon, the Jinyiwei who were searching in Zhang's mansion came and gathered.

Wei Huaian: "Qida, take a team and bring Zheng Zailu, the head of the Ministry of War, back to the Pacification Office immediately."

"Jiang Yun, let's go to Jia Xuyang's house."

After searching the entire Zhang Mansion, no clues were found.

We can only place our hopes on the two officials from the Ministry of War.

Soon, the more than 30 Jinyiwei were divided into two teams, while Qian Buchou stayed in Zhang's mansion to continue guarding it.

Not long after, a group of more than ten Jinyiwei quickly arrived at the gate of Jia Mansion.

At this time, it was already late at night. Wei Huaian kicked open the door of the Jia Mansion with a bang.

Inside the door, the dozing guard suddenly opened his eyes and immediately shouted: "Who are you? Do you know whose house this is…?"

But before he could finish his words, he saw a dozen ferocious-looking Jinyiwei rushing in from outside the door.

Wei Huaian showed his Jinyiwei badge: "Where is Lord Jia?"

"Yes, in the bedroom."

"Please lead the way."

Jiang Yun followed behind, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the power of the Jinyiwei is really great...

Jia Xuyang was a fifth-rank official in the Ministry of War. If it were a normal department, the process of arresting him would be very cumbersome.

First you have to go to the Ministry of Justice, submit the evidence, and then get the arrest document from the Ministry of Justice.

After all, he is an official of the Ministry of War, so he has to be brought to the Ministry of War and get the nod from the Minister of War before he can be arrested.

This is a normal process for an official to be arrested. But the Jinyiwei does not need this, which is one of the reasons why the officials and ministers in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty hate the Jinyiwei so much.

Soon, they arrived outside the dormitory.

boom.

Wei Huaian kicked the door open and his men filed in.

Jia Xuyang, lying on the bed, looked to be in his early fifties, with a beard.

He heard the noise, woke up instantly, and sat up in bed.

Beside him, there were three young and beautiful ladies lying, their clothes were disheveled and their beauty was exposed.

Seeing someone break in, they quickly hid under the blankets.

"Who are you?" Jia Xuyang's heart skipped a beat when he saw a group of Jinyiwei rushing in.

"Master Jia, I am Wei Huaian, the general flag of the Eastern Pacification Division." Wei Huaian stepped forward and clasped his fists: "There are some things that I would like to ask Master Jia to come back to the yamen and explain clearly."

"Okay, wait a moment." Jia Xuyang was not in a hurry. He turned around to get his clothes. Suddenly, he reached under the pillow.

Under the pillow, there was an exquisite dagger, carved with all kinds of strange patterns.

The moment he pulled out the dagger, Jia Xuyang stabbed himself in the chest.

"Damn it!" Seeing this, Wei Huaian wanted to step forward to stop it, but it was too late.

Jia Xuyang was afraid that he would leave some people alive, so he pulled out the dagger and stabbed himself several times.

Mouthfuls of thick blood gushed out of his mouth.

Jia Xuyang gritted his teeth and said in a cold voice: "I know your Jinyiwei's methods! If I really want to go in, I'm afraid it would be worse than death. It's better to find a way out here!"

"You!" Wei Huaian looked at Jia Xuyang who was gradually losing his breath.

His eyes swept towards the three young ladies on the bed: "Take them all back to the Royal Guards and see if they know anything."

"Yes."

Jiang Yun squatted beside Jia Xuyang's body and asked in a deep voice: "Master Wei, it seems that Master Zhang Wenqi's death is indeed related to this man."

"I don't know how the situation is with Lord Qi, and whether it is going well."

But it is basically certain that there is definitely something wrong with this guy.

Otherwise, the Jinyiwei would not have come to his house and he would not have stabbed himself with a knife.

He must know something.

"Return to the Jinyiwei Yamen!"

On the way back, Wei Huaian looked very unhappy, and he would look up from time to time to glance at the moon in the sky.

Jiang Yun followed behind, also thinking about the case.

When they returned to the East Pacification Office, the Jinyiwei who stayed there informed them, "General Wei, Qi Xiaoqi just captured a man and brought him to the imperial prison for interrogation."

Wei Huaian's eyes lit up with joy, and he said to Jiang Yun, "Let's go, Brother Jiang! Let's go and take a look."

"My Lord, I know nothing, I really know nothing."

Snapped……

Snapped……

Qi Da took a rattan whip dipped in water and whipped Zheng Zailu: "Master Zheng, you'd better tell the truth. Do you have anything to do with Zhang Wenqi's death?"

Zheng Zailu was wearing a white pajamas, and his body was covered with bloody marks from being beaten.

The rattan has sharp barbs and is dipped in salt water.

Next to it, there was a red-hot soldering iron.

Qi Da slowly picked up the branding iron and said, "Sir Zheng, if you don't explain, don't blame me."

The red-hot iron slowly moved towards Zheng Zhailu's face.

Zheng Zailu also closed his eyes and his breathing became rapid.
