Chapter 713

Wang Jian hadn't seen his lord for more than half a year. When he learned that he was in the imperial city, he wanted to meet him, but he was stopped by an order.

As the case was serious, Wang Jian could only honestly follow Shen Hao's arrangement and continue to sit at the Heishui headquarters in Fengri City, while at the same time spreading out two ways at the same time to investigate the news in the dead city.

It is relatively easy to find Yueying Studio, but it is just a payment. Heishui is fat now, much richer than the Thousand Households in Fengri City, so he doesn't care about the asking price of Yueying Studio.

The more difficult thing is the Hengshun Car and Horse Company. Firstly, the land transportation business in the Ruoshui River Basin is only coming soon, and it will take time to infiltrate, and those who enter the City of Death cannot be monks, and it is not so easy for ordinary spies to discover some secrets inside. But when the order is issued, it is necessary to find a way to complete it. Wang Jian had to transfer a group of the most experienced and elite spies to the dead city, hoping to start it as soon as possible.

Because the message to Yueyinglou was to be answered within two days, Wang Jian stayed in Fengri City and did not dare to move around. At the same time, the eyeliner he arranged in the imperial city kept sending back the latest incidents in the imperial city, which made his scalp tingle, thinking that the imperial city might be in a state of panic at this time, right?

Fortunately, the people Heishui deployed in the imperial city were all ordinary people without cultivation, which made it easier to hide. Moreover, Heishui belonged to a new dark force and was not noticed by anyone. It was relatively safe to grasp the information about the "big test" basic intelligence.

On the second day after Wang Jian received the order to go to Wushi City to search for information through two routes, an eye-popping news came back from the imperial city: The warrant was issued to Shanglu Prince's Mansion to take people, and the methods were tyrannical, and nearly a hundred servants were dispatched directly, and almost all the few masters in the Ministry of Punishment went.

It is said that he took a man named Li Wenhao and said that man was a guest official in Lu Wang's mansion. However, the furious Lu Wang Yang Shang did not hand over the person to the Ministry of Punishment, but opened the mansion of King Lu to the Ministry of Punishment to search, saying that there was no such person as Li Wenhao in the mansion, at least not now.

On the same day, the Department of Major Cases of the Ministry of Criminal Justice submitted the first-hand file of the "King Qian's Murder Case". The testimony of the two important witnesses, and there are also evil monks in the case.

In other words, the result given by the Ministry of Punishment is: the death of King Qian cannot be separated from King Lu, and at the same time, it cannot be separated from the evil monks.

This conclusion seems to be a matter of fact, but in fact it is like pouring a ladle of water into boiling oil, and it is so lively.

At this stage of the "big exam", who in the temple doesn't have the intention to stand in line? Many of them have even explicitly or secretly chosen to be the prince who takes sides. Otherwise, the competition between the four gates of the imperial city and the local yamen would not be so fierce.

Now that King Lu has been designated by the Ministry of Criminal Justice as the murderer who assassinated King Qian, and he is also related to the evil cultivator, is that okay?

If it's for the "big test", it's nothing more than killing brothers. Everyone is mentally prepared. Every generation of emperors in Jingjiu Dynasty has been selected in this way for so many years. It is bloody but effective. But the nature is different if you touch the evil monks.

To add insult to injury, don't be too quick, almost everyone who is qualified to speak in the temple has come out to express their opinions, at least 70% think that there should be a thorough investigation to prevent King Lu from being used by evil monks.

How to check? Of course, the investigation is done behind closed doors, with hands and feet locked up. Everyone knew that King Charlu might not survive such a blow, but no one would say the word "dead".

The final result was the emperor's decree: King Lu thought of his mistakes behind closed doors, and at the same time ordered the Ministry of Punishment to continue to thoroughly investigate the case of the king.

Thinking behind closed doors, the four words basically pushed King Lu to the edge of a cliff. Not to mention how many people under his command would flee in all directions, the end of Huluopingyang being bullied by dogs alone is already very worrying. King Qian was still in danger in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. What about King Lu who is now clearly reprimanded by the emperor? Will it also die suddenly?

The source of the news was overheard by the servants in the temple officials' homes, and also by the eunuchs in the palace, and it was even passed down by the family members of Bai Changqing's family.

Besides, a lot of news is not secret, and it is not difficult to get it as long as you put a little effort into it.

Wang Jian looked at the results analyzed by the people of the fourth department and the follow-up deduction at the headquarters of Heishui, and he exclaimed that the stick of the Ministry of Punishment was a hornet's nest, and the Ministry of Punishment had nothing to do with it, so King Lu became a scapegoat.

The most direct change is that the defense of the North Gate, which was originally controlled by King Lu, has begun to show signs of change. Because King Lu was ordered to think behind closed doors, it was already difficult to continue to control the important gate of the imperial city. The other princes all stared at each other and began to use their own means to pry King Lu's corner.

Based on the conclusions drawn from the fourth part, King Lu's current situation is very poor, and he has basically fallen into a trend of collapse. Unless there is a huge reversal event, the "big test" basically has nothing to do with him.

However, according to Heishui's opinion, if King Lu retreats completely once, he may be able to save his life. If he still wants to struggle and refuse to let go, his life will not be long.

Wang Jian was very curious about what King Lu would do next, and asked the people in Heishui to pay close attention.

Later, when the two-day deadline was approaching, the news from Yueying Studio arrived. A copper bar was passed to him directly through the method left by Wang Jian.

Wang Jian opened it and looked at it briefly, and didn't dare to delay, so he passed the content on the copper bar to Shen Hao who was in the imperial city with a thousand miles of notes.

The news about Zhang Rutie and Lin Qinghong in Yueyinglou's information is very simple. That is, there is no news about Zhang Rutie and Lin Qinghong in Wushi City at present, and it is even said that no one in Wushi City has heard of or seen these two figures in the past few decades according to the information of Yueyinglou.

Of course, Yueyinglou also said in this information that the possibility of Zhang Rutie and Lin Qinghong changing their faces and hiding their names is not ruled out, but the time is too short and there is no information related to Zhang Rutie and Lin Qinghong within the range and channels they can touch.

Half an hour after Wang Jian reported the news to Shen Hao, he got a response. What Shen Hao meant was that he should continue to investigate in the City of Death, and still try his best. But the line of Yueying Building stopped first, and made plans after the first-hand information from the car and horse dealers came back.

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Jian didn't know what to do. I reminded the Sibu again, and asked them to continue to focus on the Hengshun Chariots and Horses in the Ruoshui Basin, and get back the first-hand information as quickly as possible.

Why wait for the first-hand information from Hengshun? Wang Jian's understanding is that Mr. Shen probably doesn't trust Yueyinglou.
