East Chamber.

Huo Guang was soaring outside, and he didn't know who set the fire.

In the east wing, Wang Daozhong's face flashed a trace of panic, and he and Yang Biao lived next door.

At this time, there were two people standing opposite the royal road.

One is Xu Yong, the other is Xu Han, the two of them looked indifferent, staring at the opposite Wang Daozhong.

Wang Daozhong sighed.

Of course, he understands that today is his death date, and this qiē has long been expected, either he will destroy his family or he will bear the consequences. If he makes a mistake, he must bear it, and although he doesn't want to die, he knows that now is the best outcome for him.

He sat down on his knees and became calm, perhaps because he had just drunk some wine, so he was much more emboldened.

"As long as I die, my family will be saved, my parents will survive, my wife will live, my two sons, and they will have a great future. Trade my life for theirs, ...... Enough is enough. ”

It's just that when death came, he couldn't help but sigh a little, and finally said resolutely: "Two, let's do it." ”

Xu Han and Xu Yong glanced at each other, they went one after the other, Xu Han suddenly kicked Wang Daozhong from the back, Wang Daozhong lost his balance, and his hands and feet danced, and at this time, the long knife in Xu Han's hand stabbed into the back waist without hesitation, penetrating through, and Xu Yong in front of him also made up a knife in the chest.

The whole process, but in an instant, is fast and decisive!

The wolf bèi in the royal road fell in a pool of blood......

Xu Han couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Clean up and leave immediately." ”

Without further ado, they kicked over all the furniture in the room. He knocked down the candle on the ground, and in an instant. The two walked away.

In the next room, Yang Biao didn't know what was going on. But everywhere there was the sound of catching assassins, and the room in the royal road was a ping-pong noise, and he was so frightened that his face turned pale and his teeth cracked, and he was afraid, and he was less frightened in the face of death.

Then, someone suddenly slammed his door open, and he was even more frightened. opened his eyes to take a look, but found that they were all members of the Xu family, and there was a humane: "Mr. Yang is still alive, hurry, go and put out the fire first......

Yang Biao breathed a sigh of relief, full of joy, and someone just said that Yang Zongbing is still alive, does it mean...... Governor Wang is dead?

Although Yang Biao betrayed Wang Daozhong. But now the situation of the two is the same, and they can't help but be saddened.

And more and more guards came, and it took more than an hour for the entire Xu family to regain calm.

Main Hall.

Xu Yong stepped in with a knife. This place is already surrounded by guards on the inside and outer three, and there is no leakage.

"Lord Xu......" In front of outsiders, Xu Yong is commensurate with Xu Qian as an adult. Then he said, "The assassins have fled. ”

Xu Qian and Wang Chengdu sat here, and he narrowed his eyes: "How many assassins are there?" Why did they escape? ”

Xu Yong explained: "After the incident, the assassins first set fire to the East Chamber. Although there were many guards there, they were all worried about the safety of the adults and their dependents, so they were all dispatched to protect the adults and their families at the first time, and they had to dispatch people to fight the fire......"

This reason is indeed sufficient, because Xu Qian came secretly this time, it is impossible to shout about the whereabouts of the two people, and even many people in the Xu family do not know that such two people are coming, after all, the East Chamber is not a very important place in the mansion, as soon as they hear that there are assassins, the first reaction of the guards is naturally to protect the owner of the mansion first, otherwise in this night, the mansion will be in chaos, where to find the thief.

Xu Qian asked again: "What about the two guests in the East Chamber?" ”

Xu Yong said: "Lord Yang is still here, Lord Wang is dead." ”

Xu Qian naturally took the case and said angrily: "What are you doing to eat!" ”

Wang Cheng was on the side, and couldn't help but say, "What...... That Lord Wang, could it be that he is in the royal road, and he is dead in the royal road...... In this way, how can he help Lord Xu criticize Yang Yiqing, wouldn't it make Yang Yiqing pick up the cheap? ”

Xu Qian's face was indifferent and he did not answer.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

At the beginning of the dawn, early in the morning, the news of the Xu family reached the palace.

The Queen Mother was furious.

Recently, the Queen Mother does not have any sense of being a woman after all, and it is enough to enjoy Qingfu at this time, but she didn't expect that there were assassins in the Xu family, Xu Qian and her had some feelings after all, but what made her even more angry was that her brother-in-law Wang Cheng was also in the house at that time.

If there is a slight slip-up...... The consequences are unimaginable.

After hearing the news, the queen mother, who was holding water and rinsing her mouth, directly threw the cup on the place, because there was no such combing and hair, and all the whole people didn't care about the image, and shouted with a cloak: "Call the emperor, call the emperor quickly!" ”

"Yes." A grandmother hurriedly withdrew in broken steps.

The queen mother said again: "Out of the palace, order Xu Qian and Wang Cheng to enter the palace to meet you, quickly!" ”

Another eunuch nodded his head and went busily.

"How can this be true, how can there be such a reason, the palace is not pure, I can't imagine that this outside, it is also so unclean, these people, are they so bold? They...... Are you all crazy? Okay, okay...... This is all when our orphans and widows are easy to deceive, what does Shuntianfu do to eat, what do the five major camps do to eat, let them investigate, thoroughly investigate to the end! ”

"Yes, yes......"

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In fact, after hearing the news, Shuntianfu reacted immediately, it was still early, it stands to reason that at this time, even if you are on duty, you are all resting in the back office, but as soon as the news came, almost all the masters were called to wake up.

Something big happened, there was an assassin at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and the target was the most controversial Xu family at the moment, which was not much different from the nature of the assassination in the palace, plus there was also the younger brother of the Queen Mother in the house, once this matter could not be explained, I was afraid that many people's black gauze hats would not be able to keep it.

Lord Yin personally brought dozens of officials, in addition to hundreds of errand servants and servants, and hurried over.

When they arrived at the Xu family, everyone found out that the Xu family was different, because the five major battalions immediately reacted, and at this time, they had already sent thousands of military horses to block the nearby streets, and the Xu family was even more impenetrable.

The Jinyi Guards Yamen also came, and one by one the Jinyi guards in flying fish suits smashed the people on the nearby streets and began to search.

Many officials came to visit in sedan chairs.

In fact, nearly an hour has passed since the incident, and now this kind of behavior is useless at all, but everyone is still conscientiously abiding by their duties, with a posture of catching thieves, in fact, ...... It's just a matter of making an appearance and putting on an attitude, and attitude is very important, because when the time comes to settle accounts, it is not necessarily about what results you have made, and most importantly, what your attitude is.

In addition, there are people from the Five Cities Terracotta Division who have already gone in to investigate, Lord Fu Yin was dumbfounded, it was late, it was still a step late, and his heart was like a cat's paw scratching, which was very uncomfortable.

hurriedly entered Xu's house and ordered someone to start investigating.

As for Lord Xu and Uncle Wang, naturally they don't have the heart to entertain them, the front yard is open here, and you can investigate, but as for the back yard, it is a forbidden place, and it has been guarded by the Xu family's guards, in case it disturbs the female dependents.

One by one, the news came: "My lord, the dead is really the governor of Zhizhejiang Wang Daozhong, Wang Daozhong was obviously attacked in the back, or after seeing the enemy, he turned around and wanted to flee, and was stabbed in the back by the assassin, and then, the assassin made up a knife in his chest, and the tables and chairs in the room were messy, obviously Lord Wang must have gone through a dying struggle before he died, and his hands and feet danced wildly, which also proved this, in addition, someone tried to light a fire in the house, but it didn't succeed, and only half of the table was burned, I think the fire was extinguished by the guards, and as for the door, there are traces of it being broken, and the force is very strong......"

"My lord, there are traces of someone climbing in the northeast corner against the wall of the east chamber, and there are many footprints below, but it is not confirmed whether it is a thief, it can be estimated that the assassins should be within ten people, they took advantage of the dark night, suddenly attacked, someone deliberately set fire elsewhere to create chaos, attracted the attention of the guards, and then someone entered the house and killed Lord Wang, as for Yang Zongbing's house, there are also traces of broken doors, maybe the Xu family found it at that time, so they couldn't catch up, so they had to withdraw."

"Lord Xu and Uncle Wang are both frightened, Lord Xu ......"

"My lord, I found that Jin Yiwei interrogated a nearby neighbor, saying that when he got up at night, he saw a group of people running in the direction of Dongcheng."

"The husband has already found it, and he can confirm that a group of people went in the direction of Dongcheng last night, but they didn't dare to confirm where they went."

"My lord, in the direction of the east gate, I found a blood-stained long knife, this knife may be very consistent with the murder weapon in the royal road, and the location of the knife is in Lu'an Hutong, which happens to be the only place to go to Dongcheng, the blood stains on the knife have dried up, obviously ......"

One by one, the report gradually clarified what happened, but it was just ...... The murderer has fled, and it is not easy to take people.
