Volume 9 Chapter 25 The Nie Family's Silver and Bronze
Qin's Ranch, since Yingzheng left, Ling Yu was restless, and he had been frowning in the big tent.
The Min Dynasty surrounded Yihuan Courtyard, and such a big thing happened in Xianyang, but his third brother disappeared. Where did the silver and copper go? No one knows.
In order to find out the whereabouts of Yin Copper, Ling Yu also made a special inquiry to Zhong Dian, and said that Yin and Copper had never come. But Ling Yu clearly knew that she sent Yin Bronze to the Zhong Hall to deliver the news, and asked Mi Run to send some people from the inner hall to the ranch to have a drill with the people from the outer hall.
Since Zero Yu sat in the ranch, he changed his previous style and mixed the Nie family and the Praetorian Guard. Even if they are fighting openly and secretly in private, they must make a joint and coordinated operation mode on the training ground. Only in this way, over time, people on both sides will fight in the nest, but when they go outside, they are definitely more united than anyone else.
And this method, whether it is Yingzheng, Zhongli and others, are happy to see it come to fruition and have won unanimous praise. Even Zero Feather is not enough, and every few months a group of masters will be applied for from the inner hall to form a total technique, and the training results should be evaluated.
But when Yin Tong went this time, there was no news, no matter who asked the bell hall, they said they didn't know. At that time, Zero Feather sniffed out the danger signal, Yintong must have had an accident, but she didn't dare to say it to anyone.
Since she sent Yinyan to the Zhong Hall to transfer people, it is impossible for the Zhong Hall not to know, there must be someone inside who knows, but concealed her. Because of this, Zero Yu had no choice but to ask Yi'an for news. Because Ling Yu knew that for the Qin Palace, Yi An was more familiar than her.
Yi'an told her that the people of the Yiling Hall had indeed seen Yin and Bronze stop at the palace gate, and said a few words to a palace maid, and then left. As for what he said, no one knows, but the palace maid is a person from Huayang Palace. Then Yi'an checked again, the identity of the palace maid was very ordinary, and she committed suicide by throwing herself into a well after she went back.
Zero Yu was even more anxious, and even asked Yi'an to take action in a pleading tone to find out why the palace maid was looking for death? The daughter of the palace maid must be related to silver and copper, and if you want to check the whereabouts of silver and copper, you must find out the relationship between him and the palace maid. Yi'an also agreed to investigate, but before he started, he received the news that Lin Sheng was dead from Yingzheng on Zhongnan Mountain, which shocked Ling Yu and Yi'an.
At the same time, the two had a premonition that Yin and Bronze were likely to be involved in Lin Sheng's death. But this matter has not been figured out yet, and the two of them don't dare to say much to Ying Zheng, but before Ying Zheng leaves in the morning, they privately told Ying Zheng that there may be a problem with the Nie family, and she is waiting to accept the punishment and the subsequent investigation.
As for what went wrong, Zero Yu didn't know, Ying Zheng just smiled and told her not to think about it. Since Ling Yu was placed in this position, Ying Zheng was very relieved, even if someone below made a mistake, it was probably done without her. For this kind of thing, every force will have it, so I don't feel at ease.
Looking at the frowning Ling Yu, Jin Tong next to him smiled and said: "Eldest sister, the king has already said that what happened in Yihuan Courtyard should be an inner ghost in the inner hall, and it has nothing to do with our outer hall." It's a bit of a fuss that you're grounding all the people on the ranch, and it's going to delay everyone's training. ”
Zero Yu said with a heavy heart: "What do you know, if you don't experience those palace fights, it's difficult to understand the insidious cunning of those women. I've suffered from those people, and they've eaten too much, and everyone thinks I'm a bully, and now some people are eyeing the pasture, for fear that I'm too close to the Praetorian Guards, and I'm going to take their place in the future. ”
Jin Tong said suspiciously: "This position was set up by the king himself, and even the lord of Zhongli Hall has to ask the eldest sister to take care of Zhonghe." With Yin Yue and Zhong He, the position of the eldest sister is as stable as Mount Tai, who else in the palace dares to covet it? ”
Zero Yu sighed: "People's hearts are sinister, now we are not afraid of other people's open swords and guns, what we are most afraid of is the invisible dark arrow." If someone is eyeing the fat of the ranch, they will definitely plan a lot of things, and I am worried that Yintong will fall into the way of others and accidentally die outside, thus implicating my entire Nie family. ”
Jin Tong was surprised: "It's impossible, the third brother has never left the pasture and Xianyang range except for training with Xibu." Under our noses, it is difficult for him to make mistakes, not to mention that he has so many training tasks that he has no time to do other things. ”
Zero Yu said seriously: "But he has been out for two days, I asked Xiao Ancha, and I haven't found out where he is, don't you think it's strange?" Xiao An's identity, our sisters know best, in addition to Lin Ye in Xianyang, who else is more familiar with her than her? Even what she didn't find out, I'm pretty sure that Yintong should be dead, and only dead people will play missing for no reason. ”
"Coupled with the matter of Yihuan Courtyard, if Lin Sheng really died, and Yin Tong also died there, it is not impossible. He may not dare to kill Lin Sheng, if he listens to the bewitchment of a certain woman in the palace and kills some of the subordinates of Yihuan Courtyard, he still dares, anyway, those subordinates are not from the Yiling Palace. But Yintong forgot, although he is not a person from the Yiling Palace, he is also a descendant of the North Palace. ”
"With Chenxi's character, it's hard not to retaliate."
Jin Tong shook his head desperately and said: "It must be that the eldest sister is too worried, the matter of Yihuan Courtyard, Yin Tong definitely did not participate." ”
Zero Feather sighed, "I hope so." ”
"But I also had to prepare for the worst, so I didn't find out the news of Silver and Copper, and everyone in the family was confined to the house, even the Praetorian Guard. I also said on the Xibu side, before the king gave an order, or before Yi'an came back, everyone in the ranch was not allowed to move around at will, waiting for the people sent from above to investigate. And I have already sent Yin Yue and Zhonghe to the Blood Fan Building, no matter what happens to us, don't let the two children get involved. ”
"Only in this way, even if Yintong commits a crime, the king and Zhongli will not give us any big punishment in front of the two children, and the position of the head of the ranch can still be kept."
Jin Tong nodded when he heard this, but saw a person hurriedly walking in from outside the door, it was Xibu.
I saw Xibu slashing his head and covering his face and said: "Sister Lingyu, disaster is coming, the Praetorian Guard brothers in Xianyang City sent me a message, and Yintong died in the secret room of Yihuan Courtyard. This was first said by the god hunting Gong Ming, and later my Xiao An also said the same thing, because she personally said to the king that it was the Nie family's swordsmanship that was used to kill several of Yihuanyuan's subordinates. ”
"We all know that Xiao An's Nie family swordsmanship is still taught by you, there are so many people in the ranch, but who knows the Nie family's swordsmanship and to what extent it is trained, Xiao An and we all know it. Therefore, Xiao An's judgment is estimated to be wrong, even if he does not see the corpse of the Silver and Bronze brothers now, it is estimated that he is among the assassins. ”
Zero Yu and Jin Tong were shocked, and Jin Tong was in a hurry.
Ling Yu was anxious for a moment, and hurriedly ordered: "Brother Xibu, you immediately give an order, close the ranch, and do not allow any brothers to move, waiting for the king to send someone to investigate." ”
"We can't be in a hurry, let alone messy, and when the people sent by the king conduct an investigation, we must fully cooperate. No matter what Yintong has done before, even if it is something wrong, as long as it is asked, no one who knows can hide it. If anyone dares to hide it, you will kill them directly, including my Nie family. At this time, we must not have any mercy, even if it is a relative who is drinking with us, whoever lies will be killed, and we must satisfy the king and the people who hunt the camp. ”
Xibu smiled honestly and bitterly: "We can't lie if we want to, Xiao An is the deputy catcher of the fast camp, what is going on in the ranch, what is there that she doesn't know." Yesterday I was still wondering, you and Xiao An were checking the whereabouts of Yin and Copper, and I felt that he went to Yihuan Courtyard to kill people behind our backs. It's just enough to kill some people, but if you want to kill Lin Sheng, I won't believe it. Lin Sheng was summoned to many things in the ranch, and it was impossible for him not to know Lin Sheng's usefulness to us and his relationship with us. ”
Ling Yu said sadly: "We naturally believe in silver and copper, but others may not believe it, not to mention that he also killed a few subordinates of the Beigong with his own hands, this black cauldron, even if you jump into the Yellow River, you can't wash it away." ”
At the same time, he gritted his teeth and said: "Sister Xiao An, you must investigate thoroughly to the end, and you must find out the murderer who bewitched my third brother." The people of Zhongdian are not so reliable, except for Zhongli, Lin Ye, Mi Run and Min Dai, I can't trust anyone else in Zhongdian. ”
Only then did Xibu react and wondered, "The people of the Zhong Hall planned it?" Then my aunt still doesn't destroy her three clans? But who is that? ”
Yihuan Yuan, Yi An is also thinking about this problem.
The incident happened too quickly, and the day before yesterday he was still tracking the whereabouts of Yin Bronze, and today he was found dead in Yihuan Courtyard. All the doubts fell on the palace maid who threw herself into the well and died, and there was no evidence for her death, and it became an unsolved case. What Yi'an thinks about the most is how to wash away the suspicion of silver and copper.
Although Yin Bronze killed several subordinates of the Beigong, even if he was given a hundred guts, he would not dare to kill Lin Sheng, not to mention that he had dealt with Lin Sheng himself. If you really want to kill Lin Sheng, there are many opportunities, and you won't rush to assassinate Lin Sheng at this juncture.
So Yi An directly said these words, and finally said: "With my understanding of Yin and Bronze, he will not kill Lin Sheng, and his death is likely to be because he found out that he was deceived and went to Lin Sheng, and was killed by those assassins." But there is no evidence of these things for the time being, so it is necessary for Brother Gong Ming to continue to investigate. ”
"Yintong and I are very familiar with each other, and they also deal with the ranch every day, and they still have a superior-subordinate relationship with my husband, so I may have to avoid suspicion, and I am afraid that I will not be able to continue to meddle."
Gong Ming said: "No need, you continue to investigate, you don't avoid relatives, find out who has a problem, and investigate to the end, even if you find out your own family in the future, you don't have to dodge." Even if a relative makes a mistake, even if a relative makes a mistake, he must find out the ins and outs of the matter, and he does not have any scruples. Since the king has chosen us, if we don't even give an explanation, what is the use of us? ”
"The most important point, this matter is related to the Zhong Palace, besides you, who else is more familiar with the Zhong Palace?"
At the same time, Gong Ming thought for a while, saluted Yingzheng at the door, and said: "King Qiqi, there have been major twists and turns in the case, and the scope of the impact may be very wide. Now that the deputy arrest Yi'an has been affected, it is likely that in the next step, Chen Jiu, Mi Xiao, Nei Shixi, Wang Heng and I will be affected. ”
"Please give a promise, and also give a clear decree to the ministers of civil and military affairs present. In future investigations, if the case involves a person at the level of divine arrest or deputy arrest, others have no right to interfere. If something goes wrong with one of us, you alone can ask and condemn us, and that doesn't stop us from continuing to investigate. ”
"This decree is very important to us because I feel it. Once this matter continues to be investigated, the Zhong Hall will inevitably be found, and the people and forces related to it will inevitably include Huayang Palace, Yiling Palace, North Palace and other large and small forces. At the same time, the assassin is a person from the Central Plains countries, and it is likely to be related to the forces of the rivers and lakes, so the eldest brother Wang Heng of the Ghost Valley may also be involved in this matter. ”
"Since you trust us, we will give the same loyalty, if you don't trust us, afraid that the case will involve the people around us, then in our hearts, we will have the mood of avoiding suspicion and not daring to investigate, which will block the progress of the investigation. God Capture plus five deputy catchers, I think it is the best match, without a certain one, there will be one less link to look at the problem, which will hinder our judgment and give the king an accurate sentence. ”
Xingling, Wang Heng, Yi'an and the others looked at each other, bowed at the same time, and said, "Please issue a holy decree from the king, so that we can rest assured." ”
Several people had to ask for this promise, and the fact is obvious that today Yi'an has been affected. Then the next person affected must be Mi Xiao, because most of the people in Zhongdian are from the Mi clan, and Wang Heng is Mi Xiao's husband. If Yi'an wants to avoid suspicion and can't investigate, then it will definitely be Mi Xiao's turn to avoid suspicion and Wang Heng to avoid suspicion.
So the characters related to it, Mi Xiao is from Beigong, Xingling, Chen Jiu, including Gong Ming and others must also avoid suspicion, most people must avoid suspicion, who dares to say that the internal history should not avoid suspicion? Well, the entire fast hunting camp has to avoid suspicion, and this department is likely to be short-lived and stillborn.
Therefore, this request, led by Gong Ming, had to ask for it. As long as Yingzheng issues the holy decree, the rest of the things will be much easier, and there is no need to hide it anymore, and he will not dare to investigate when he encounters things.
But such a holy decree really embarrassed Yingzheng.
