Rebirth of the best emperor

Chapter 163
Half a quarter of an hour ago, a messenger from Nanyang came to inform Wang Mang and Lu Yuan that after the secret discussion of the four major families, they planned to send Zhao Zhiheng, the second son of the Zhao family, and Zhao Zifan, the third son, to attack Xinyang in the open and in the dark. Let's take a look. As for whether there are still people coming behind the scenes, I don't know yet, and we have to wait for further news.

Lu Yao didn't have the patience of the two of them. He looked at them and said, "I said that the four major families are also interesting, and the Zhao family in Nanyang is even more interesting. They actually sent two young masters here, one in the open and one in the dark. This time we bet we dare not catch them!"

Lu Yuan glanced at Lu Yao speechlessly, and said, "Arrest? Why do you arrest him?"

"They bully the market and defraud the people!" Lu Yao took it for granted, "Isn't Zhao Si arrested for this reason?"

"You also know that it is Zhao Si. It is Zhao Si who committed the crimes of bullying the market and defrauding the people, not Zhao Zhiheng, nor Zhao Zifan. Why should we arrest him?" Lu Yuan looked at Lu Yao, who was finally speechless.

Wang Mang pondered for a moment, and said: "Anyway, the situation this time is much better than last time. Last time we didn't have any cards in our hands. We can say that we have no confidence at all. But this time we have no cards in our hands. Looking at Zhao Si, Qian Guangda and others, it can be said that as long as there are no internal problems, we will be invincible."

"Why don't you have any arrogance at all." Lu Yao rolled his eyes and said, "If I were you, I would sweep the four big families with my sword, and dare to bully us!"

Wang Mang's eyes flashed, he wanted to be domineering, but he was not born and bred in this world after all, and what he brought in his bones could not be eliminated in a moment. Besides, Wang Mang often considered issues from his own status as emperor, as The ruler of Great Qin, what Wang Mang needs is stability.

"Master, it's not good. Someone from the county government came to report the case. They said that four corpses emerged from the Xinyang River and had been salvaged. According to the identification of the people nearby, they should be the family of Du Hong, a wealthy businessman in the city who was reported missing before."

The three people here have not discussed the result yet, the county government over there actually came to report a life lawsuit, Wang Mang and Lu Yuan stood up in surprise, Lu Yuan said: "It came so quickly?"

"Probably not." Wang Mang frowned.

The two immediately thought of the Zhao family, and it was only after Nanyang heard that the Zhao family had sent two young masters to Xinyang to find their troubles. Here, there was a life lawsuit in Xinyang, which cannot be called a coincidence.

But what if it's not a coincidence?

Wang Mang frowned and said, "What happened to Du Hong's family?"

"I don't know the details, but this matter seems to have something to do with the Zhao family." Lu Yuan shook his head and explained.

Du Hong, a businessman who does business in Xinyang City is not big or small. There are not one hundred such businessmen in Xinyang, but there are eighty, but Du Hong is well-known in Xinyang. This reputation is not Du Hong's, but Du Hong's. Du Tingting's daughter, to be precise, Du Tingting is [-] years old, youthful and beautiful, and is one of the so-called top [-] beauties in Xinyang. Although Du Tingting is only at the bottom of this ranking, she is also a well-known beauty.

Although Du Hong's family is considered wealthy, he is only a businessman after all, belonging to a small family. In this world, if you have something coveted by a small family, it is a sin.

Ever since Du Tingting entered the beauty list, there have been many crazy bees and butterflies chasing Du Tingting at the door of the Du family. Originally, Du Hong was quite happy about this. He planned to use this name to marry Du Tingting to a good family. Can cling to a good in-laws.

It's no wonder that Du Hong has this idea, it's really the idea that most people in this world have.

But half a year ago, the taste of things changed. Several foreign affairs children of the four major families in Xinyang accidentally saw Du Tingting's appearance, so they also joined in.

Although Xinyang is not Nanyang, it is also deeply influenced by the four major families. People from the four major families have joined the game. Although they are only foreigner children and not in the top class, it also makes other people put down their small thoughts.

Du Hong was originally happy to see the success of this. Although he was only a child of foreign affairs, he was also a member of the four major families. But after inquiring, he found out that these children of foreign affairs all had families. Don't tell Du Tingting in the past Wife, even concubine is not ranked.

Du Hong was also dazzled by the praise of Xinyang City people in the past two years, and he directly told those foreign students that his daughter would never marry them as a concubine, and his words were quite disdainful. This time he provoked a hornet's nest, which made it impossible for him to stay in Xinyang City.

So, half a month ago, the Du Hong family disappeared in Xinyang City. It was reported that the Du Hong family was annoyed by those people and had to leave the family business and go away.

But now... Look, Du Hong didn't leave Xinyang at all, but had his whole family killed and dumped in Xinyang River.

In any dynasty, in any time period, a homicide case is a major case, not to mention this kind of massacre, which is the biggest case among major cases.

Now that such a case suddenly appeared, Lu Yuan was furious at first, and then had a headache. He opened his mouth and wanted to call the people from the Sixth House for a discussion. Then he realized that the people in the Sixth House had put him in prison. He couldn't help but look at Wang Mang and smiled wryly. Said: "Wang Butou, the six gates are in charge of criminal investigation, so they should be familiar with this kind of human murder case."

How did Wang Mang know about any homicide cases, his head arrest is really all fake teeth.

But at this time, he can't be cowardly, otherwise who knows what Lu Yuan will think, thinking about the criminal investigation films he once watched in film and television dramas, nodded: "I understand a little bit."

It's good to understand a little, Lu Yuan felt relieved, then immediately changed his clothes, and went to the Xinyang River with Wang Mang.

By the Xinyang River, where the corpses are temporarily stored, there are already hundreds of people around at this moment, all pointing at the corpses by the river. Fortunately, Lizheng here has already taken precautions and quarantined nearby, otherwise it would not be easy Squeeze in.

Li Zheng was calling Sun Wufan, and he didn't know if he had anything to do with the Sun family. When he saw Lu Yuan, he hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects, and said, "My lord, before a stick of incense, someone saw a floating corpse by the river. I reported it to the little one, and the little one knew that the life lawsuit is of great importance, on the one hand, he asked someone to salvage the body, and on the other hand, he asked someone to report it to the master."

"You knew it was the Du family when you were reported?" Wang Mang said at this time.

"I know." Sun Wuhan nodded and said: "The young one also wanted to be in-laws with the Du family, and happened to meet Du Hong and Miss Du's family, so at this moment, he recognized Du Hong's father and daughter, Du Hong's family of four, There are exactly four people here, and the younger one guessed it should be the Du family."

"I have a heart." Wang Mang's eyes flickered, and he stopped talking.

Lu Yuan asked a few more words, and then called Wu Zuo to come up for an autopsy, while Wang Mang looked around, trying to find anything nearby, and Lu Yuan also ordered the servants to search around.

After a while, a fisherman was brought over, Sun Wuhan first looked at Lu Yuan and said, "Master, this is the first person who found the body."

Turning to look at the fisherman again, he said, "Zhao Ergou, this is the magistrate, please tell me what you see."
