Pei Zhenghao unbuttoned the copper ring on the white dove's feet and immediately went to see King Yu.

"The matter is getting more and more complicated. King Ling has arrived in Pingzhou and found out that Lu Yan was greedy for ink and stone. Now he continues to investigate the New Year's Eve bloody case. Pingzhou is temporarily taken over by King Ling." After hearing Pei Zhenghao's statement, King Yu threw the note into the incense burner.

"We all know that King Ling investigated the case and found out that the prince was on the head, but why did he suddenly go to Pingzhou from Ping'an Army and find out that Lu Yan would be corrupt? I feel that there seems to be some connection between these two things?"

"You are right, Xuan Shaoning also expressed the same meaning in his letter. He was going to Pingzhou to expand the army and explore the road for the Xuanjia Army, but then he accidentally killed Zhang Shisan. This matter was temporarily put aside. With King Ling here, it is probably more difficult for him to complete the task further." King Yu said lightly.

"Your Highness meant to let him come back first?"

"Zhenghao, you still don't know him very well. If he wants to quit, he is probably standing in front of us now."

"Oh? It's a rare character that is not afraid of stubbornness, but can his abilities match?"

"Can you please let us wait and see what happens." King Yu picked up a pen and wrote a letter, and then passed it out through the carrier pigeon in the same way.

When the white pigeon arrived at the Yu Prince's Mansion, the black pigeon also arrived at Lengyuezhai.

"I haven't been to Leng Yuezhai for a long time. I wonder if my sisters miss me?"

"As a court official, I'll be careful to be used by those who are interested!"

"Haha, if it were something else, I would have been honest and wouldn't speak out, but this is Leng Yuezhai, I feel most at ease!"

"Don't worry, I'm not at ease, it's still the old position."

"You're not at ease? Then what are you asking us to do?"

Xiao Moyan sat down as usual and immediately stuffed a piece of pastry into his mouth. "Can you miss me for many days?"

Qi Wantong poured tea and put a note on the table. "It was Shaoning who wrote a letter to me to come to you two, please read it yourself."

Before Xiao Moyan could swallow the pastry, the note was already unfolded by Mu Qingyuan.

"It turns out that King Ling went to Pingzhou, and Shaoning is now involved in the New Year's Eve bloody case."

"Show me!" Xiao Moyan snatched the note from Mu Qingyuan's hand and said, "I have heard of this case, why Shaoning was involved in it was not explained in detail in his letter, but it was obvious that he wanted to know some of the inside stories."

"Shaoning is really looking for the right person. I'm here at the scene of the bloody case. This case is very strange. I have submitted a report to the court to allow me to postpone my post."

"What? Are you on the scene?"

"Is it strange? My father is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. Of course, this matter cannot be hidden from me. Moreover, it is not just me. Yan Keran was there that day."

"Wow, you two have the moon first!"

While burning the letter, Qi Wantong interrupted Xiao Moyan, "I asked you two to come here to discuss the main business. Moyan, if you are so surprised again, I will pack you a pastry and go back and taste it slowly!"

"No, no, I'm a normal person. Well, how do you think we should help Shaoning?"

"Let me talk about the discovery between Ke Ran and me that day." Mu Qingyuan detailed the suspicious points found on the scene that day. "I can trust Wantong, it's you, don't yell everywhere!"

"Although I like to talk, I can still tell which one is more important! You can't believe me after so many years?"

"To be honest, it's true... I can't believe it."

"you!"

"Okay! Qingyuan, do you have your own suspicion?" Qi Wantong was really not in the mood to listen to the two of them quarrels at this moment.

"After I went back, I thought about it repeatedly for several days. I think... this is not a murder case..."

For three days after Lu Yanhui was captured, Xuan Shaoning kept reminiscing about a more detailed past that Ji Wenhan told him that night:

Dong Bi was an ordinary blacksmith in Pingzhou. He owned a simple iron shop. He lived in poverty, but his wife was a famous beauty in the village. The life of a husband and wife was also very comfortable. One day after the two got married, Dong Bi went out to buy iron materials. There was only his wife in the iron shop. It happened that day that Zhang Shisan came to the market and took a look at his wife's beauty at first sight, and became greedy. Unexpectedly, his wife was loyal and strong, and he refused to obey. Finally, he was in a fight with Zhang Shisan.

He died. After seeing the tragic situation and learning the truth, Dong Bi sneaked into Zhang Shisan's mansion that night and wanted to die with him. Unfortunately, he was injured and was about to die on the spot. However, he encountered someone who took action to rescue him. The man was Li Shang. He was originally a soldier in Zhang Shisan's mansion, but he had never been able to stand in Pingzhou. The two of them had no choice but to stay in Pingzhou again. As soon as they planned, they escaped from Pingzhou overnight and later surrendered to the Xuanjia Army.

At the same time, Xuan Shaoning also received a letter from King Yu and Qi Wantong. The letter from King Yu was very simple, and the main meaning was to let Xuan Shaoning continue to do things without being too restricted. Qi Wantong's letter shocked him even more after letting Xuan Shaoning understand the basic situation of the bloody case:

"What? How is it possible?"

"Don't be anxious, listen to my explanation slowly. First of all, the inn owner reported that they were staying in the inn two days before New Year's Eve. The New Year holiday was the most lightest time for the inn business. When they stayed in the hotel, the small inn originally planned to close the door. In other words, there were only two guests in the inn and two middle-aged guests with large luggage. Naturally, the owner and his wife paid great attention. Then, the store owner said that the two had almost never left the store, and they just went to the backyard, and the daily meals were delivered to the room by the store."

"It's really strange to say that, people who act differently must have an unspeakable purpose."

"That day, Ke Ran and I saw a familiar mark next to the wellhead in the backyard. After I went back, I kept thinking about where I had seen it and why it looked familiar. As a result, I had a flash of inspiration after I went out on the street yesterday and thought of it!"

"Don't keep it aside, say it quickly!"

"It is a common iron trough for casting iron tools in iron shops!"

"Is it the strange and growing luggage they carry that is the bin?"

"Very likely!"

"Who brings such a big and heavy thing when going out? Are they not soldiers? Why are they related to iron masturbation?"

"I also said that I found water stains on the lace of the chest of the complete corpse, and there was also a wound on the back, and there was a trace of water stains that was not easy to find on the side of the corpse, which stretched from the chest to the back."

"Wait!" Xiao Moyan and Qi Wantong looked at each other, and the above information began to slowly become a line in their minds. "You said before that they were not killed, then..."

"Suicide!" The three of them spoke in unison.

"So you think they used their carry-on latches and snow in the capital for the past few days, built a weapon with water, and then killed themselves!"

"right!"

"Although it makes sense to infer suicide from all the signs you mentioned, why did they commit suicide but pretend to be the scene of the murder? And why did one person get dismembered while the other person is basically intact? This is really a bit incredible!"

Unbelievable! Xuan Shaoning's first reaction after receiving Qi Wantong's Fei Ge's letter was the same. However, combined with Ji Wenhan's past, it seemed that the rationality of this inference was further improved.

"I heard that Wen Han told you all the past." Xuan Shaoning could hear the voice coming from Xu Chengxian.

"I'm afraid the quarrying brothers here know a little about this past event?"

"This incident was quite a bit serious back then. Zhang Shisan killed more than a dozen people to vent his anger." Xu Chengxian stood on the side of Xuan Shaoning, saw a twitching corner of his mouth, and paused and continued, "Eun Han is young, but it is wise for him to hide the matter from the incident that day. Now that you already know, it seems appropriate for you to report it to King Ling."

"I should ask Han is my younger brother. Even if I am willing to tell King Ling, how do you know that Lord Teng will not have added this matter? After all, you also said that the incident was a big deal back then, and Lord Teng must have known it as his parents."

"He won't say it."

Xuan Shaoning turned around and looked at Xu Chengxian's eyes, "Are you so sure?"

"I have been in Pingzhou for so many years and I can guess most of his character. Don't ask me what kind of person he is. The key to us now is to help King Ling find useful clues to the case as soon as possible. After all, your purpose is not to waste time here."

The man with a scar in front of him made Xuan Shaoning feel a little throbbing. If Ji Wenhan is a clear and peaceful lake, then Xu Chengxian is like the fog evaporated from the lake. "I have been thinking about this these days. Both of them used to be my Xuanjia soldiers. Now that they are killed, I have the responsibility to help them find the murderer. If King Ling leaves Pingzhou one day earlier, I can complete recruitment as soon as possible."

"Oh? There is such a story!" King Ling put down the booklet in his hand. Xuan Shaoning vaguely saw that it was the found stone account book. At that moment, he also sighed in his heart that Xu Chengxian was exactly what he expected.

"Yes, it can be said that the people of Pingzhou have heard of this incident, but after many years, everyone has gradually forgotten it. The reason I mentioned it again is that I think this incident may be helpful for solving the New Year's Eve bloody case."

"After more than ten years ago, Master Xuan thinks it will be helpful to recent cases? I would like to hear about it!"

"I dare to ask the King of Ling, have you ever been to the scene of the New Year's Eve bloody crime in person?"

"That's not. I have learned about the basic situation from Jingzhao Yin and Dali Temple. Besides, if the investigation progress is made, they will let me know as soon as possible." As the person in charge of the investigation, he had never been to the scene at all. Even if it was put on the prince, he was somewhat unpleasant. Xuan Shaoning asked this question to King Ling felt a little unhappy.

"It's clear!"

"A real man should go into battle to kill the enemy. He is more powerful than quarry!"

"We have been oppressed for too long and are about to be released!"

"We are willing to follow Captain Xuan!"

The crowd was in full swing, and even if Xuan Shaoning, Xu Chengxian, Ji Wenhan and a few men arranged the matters were still too late to register and make a book. The busy scene made Dongtian leave early.

For ten days, Xuan Shaoning was very busy. After several persuasion, he finally guaranteed the minimum number of people in the quarry. On this day, the pigeon carrying Xuan Shaoning's letter flew away from Pingzhou and headed towards the capital.

"Your Highness, Pingzhou has written a letter!"

King Yu took the copper tube sent by Pei Zhenghao, opened it and browsed it, and a smile appeared on his face, "Look, this kid is giving us a surprise!"

"Oh? There were 20,000 people! It was really unexpected. I was worried before."

"No? I was worried that he would kill the imperial officials, but I didn't expect that the investigation of the case by King Ling would cause such an unexpected change."

"King Ling had already returned to Beijing five days ago, and Lu Yanhui was also taken to Beijing, but I just got the news that Wang Ling went to the palace to meet him today."

"We can't control what the King of Ling wants. What news is there for Mobei?"

"Spring will begin in two months, and our army is ready to prepare for the Hu people to go south to rob."

"That's good. I want to try to return to Mobei as soon as possible!"

"Your Highness, the capital is the center of power. With Xuan Jia in Mobei, there will be no accident. Your Highness should still..."
