Three hundred and twentieth chapters a walk away

Wang Zhi watched the bride-welcoming team slowly leave. He did not see Tang Hexi's shadow in Li Dao's mansion or the entire bride-welcoming team.

Tang Jing, the escort guard of the Tang family who accompanied Tang Hexi to Li Dao Mansion, turned pale and looked anxious and about to cry.

When he found Li Lifang, who looked festive and asked about the whereabouts of his son, the latter looked confused, because he took Tang Hexi to Li Fengniang's embroidery building, and after Tang Hexi entered, he left.

Therefore, he was not very clear about where Tang Hexi had gone now.

But no matter what, he believed that his sister Li Fengniang would definitely give him anger and would definitely deal with Tang Hexi and Ye Qing well so that they would not dare to be arrogant in front of him from now on.

Wang Zhiwang stopped Li Lifang and was about to ask clearly. When Tang Hexi said that he had done something about a poem, Lin Guangchao, deputy commander of the Imperial City Department, appeared in front of several people with a serious expression.

"Are you Tang Jing, the head of the Tang family?" Lin Guangchao's eyes were sharp, like a sharp knife, which shocked Tang Jing.

"The little one is, I don't know this general..." Tang Jing, as the guard and housekeeper of the Tang Mansion, had a very accurate look. At first glance, he knew that he could not afford to be a person's demeanor.

"What's wrong with Commander Lin?" Wang Zhiwang relieved Tang Jing's doubts and bowed to Lin Guangchao.

Lin Guangchao looked at Li Lifang quietly, and then looked at the gate of the Li Mansion that was gradually cold after the wedding team left, and said in a deep voice: "Tang Hexi tried to be careless about the Crown Princess, but was blocked by the nobleman Liu Quzhong sent from the palace today. So Tang Hexi was angry and took advantage of the unpreparedness of the Crown Princess, pulling out the golden hairpin from his hair bun and stabbing Liu Quzhong to death. The nobleman Zhong was helping the crown princess to cut paper osmanthus flowers. The scissors in his hand instinctively stabbed Tang Hexi in the chest. Now both of them are dead."

"What?" Li Lifang, Wang Zhiwang, and Tang Jing said in unison.

Li Lifang's shocked expression was not pretending, but he was really shocked. He just wanted to take revenge on Tang Hexi, but never thought that Tang Hexi would die!

And he only remembered that when his sister walked out of the embroidery building, she had a proud smile on her face, and then quickly told him that Tang Hexi was not invited by him to congratulate him, but because she wrote a poem to give Li Fengniang, she asked Li Lifang to lead the way.

He didn't think much about why his sister told him this way, and he didn't know if it was related to Tang Hexi's death.

After hearing Lin Guangchao's words, Tang Jing sat on the ground and howled and started crying. Once Tang Hexi died, he might not be able to survive tomorrow.

Wang Zhiwang's legs were trembling violently, and he felt his heart tugging, and he seemed to be in a state of being unable to breathe and completely unbelievable.

"General Lin, don't joke about this. You just said... this is serious?" Wang Zhiwang asked anxiously, holding Lin Guangchao's hand.

"Yes, are you kidding? Why didn't my sister say that Tang Hexi should be careless..." Li Lifang's mind was full of Tang Hexi's shadow at this moment. At this moment, he was a little indifferent to the emperor. Seeing Wang Zhiwang asked, he also asked hurriedly.

"How could Mo Jiang joke about Mr. Tang's life and death? Now the bodies of noble people Liu Quzhong and Mr. Tang are in the embroidery building of the Crown Princess. Lord Ye is checking the murder scene." Lin Guangchao said calmly: "Mr. Ye has also sent someone to notify the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple, and even the Ministry of War has notified him. Mr. Wang thought that Mr. Wang was here to investigate the case. Did Mo Jiang guess wrong?"

"This... I...is not bad. I'm here to investigate the case. Where is the person now? Please take us to see." Wang Zhiwang looked down at his brand new casual clothes. Today he went to the Prince's Mansion to congratulate him. It was only because of Tang Xiang's order that he came here to pick up Tang Hexi.

But who would have thought that Tang Hexi is now a cold corpse.

Several people followed Lin Guangchao to the embroidery building of Li Fengniang, the back house of Li's mansion. Along the way, Li Lifang was in a mess and kept asking questions, and Lin Guangchao was patiently giving him various answers.

Wang Zhiwang was also in a state of confusion. After a short while thinking, he realized when he walked to the embroidery building. Tang Xiang asked him to go to Li's mansion to pick up Tang Hexi, and then asked him to go back to the mansion directly. Does this mean that Tang Xiang already knew that Tang Hexi would be in danger?

Li Fengniang's entire embroidery building was surrounded by the Imperial City Department, and in the alley at the back door of the Li Mansion, the imperial guards led by Lu Zhong and Wu Gui are still patrolling everywhere.

Standing on the second floor, he looked at the imperial guards in the alley behind the Li Mansion. They looked hurried and talked a few times from time to time, and then surrounded the entire Li Mansion, secretly wondering what they were looking for.

Ye Qing gently closed the window, glanced at the dead bodies on the ground, Tang Hexi and Liu Qu, then opened the door and walked to the stairs, watching Wang Zhiwang and Li Lifang running up quickly under the leadership of Lin Guangchao.

"Mr. Wang is here so fast. Please." Ye Qing reached out and asked for guidance, and then led the way in front: "The body is inside."

As soon as he opened the door, Ye Qing and the others hurriedly looked back and saw Tang Jing crawling and rolling at the entrance of the stairs, and finally ran up with tears and snot.

"Originally, idle people are not allowed to enter here, but because you are the guard butler of the Tang Xiang Mansion and Lord Wang's face, I allow you to enter the room and investigate, but!" Ye Qing suddenly increased his tone and stood at the door and said, "If you dare to say a word about what you saw here, I will cut off your tongue and feed the dog!"

Tang Jing, who had just climbed up, was stunned at first, but looking at Ye Qing's sharp and murderous eyes, he panted and swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva, and he still couldn't speak, so he had to nodde hard to show that he knew.

"Please come in, Lord Wang." Ye Qing walked in first, then pointed to the two corpses that had already been stiff on the ground and said, "This is Liu Quzhong, the nobleman sent to serve the crown princess next to the crown princess. The crown princess told me that because when passing by the crown prince's mansion today, there will be various royal etiquettes. I am afraid that if the crown prince misses something because of nervousness, it will be a bit rude. So the palace sent Liu Quzhong, to accompany the crown princess into the crown prince's mansion, reminding the crown princess of various etiquettes on the side."

Ye Qing looked at Wang Zhiwang's gaze and wandered on the bodies of Tang Hexi and Liu Qu, and continued to say lightly: "I guess there is no need to say more about this person. Tang Hexi, the grandson of Tang Xiangzhi, I believe you know him, Lord Wang, too."

Wang Zhiwang circled around the two corpses without saying a word. Li Lifang looked at Tang Hexi who was already unconscious, and then looked at Ye Qing who was safe and sound.

At this moment, his mind was in chaos, and he had no idea what was going on upstairs!

Li Lifang didn't understand why Ye Qing appeared here safely and soundly, why did his sister not plot against him and take revenge on him? Or did Tang Hexi really want to be careless about his sister, so he couldn't take revenge on Ye Qing for himself?

But Ye Qing went to his sister's embroidery building first than Tang Hexi, and... and the time was not short. Before and after he led Tang Hexi to the embroidery building, his sister asked him to wait for a while, but he did not let him in.

Li Lifang, who was confused, couldn't understand the doubts in his heart at all. The more he looked at Ye Qing's leisurely and contented appearance, the more doubts he had, and his curiosity became more and more serious. He wanted to know what was happening in this room.

"I'm afraid that nobleman Liu Quzhong won't carry scissors with him, right?" Wang Zhiwang squatted down and looked at the scissors in Tang Hexi's heart. He said slowly.

Ye Qing looked at Lu Zujian and Hong Zun who happened to appear at the door, looked back at Wang Zhiwang, and thought for a while and said, "The Crown Princess was too tight just now, so she didn't dare to delay the Crown Princess' auspicious time, but I remember that the Crown Princess said that it was the nobleman Liu Quzhong who was helping her cut her favorite peach blossom."

"It's the osmanthus." Li Lifang corrected on the side: "My sister has always liked osmanthus. Can't you see the osmanthus trees in the yard? It's also peach blossoms, and I don't know how you became the commander of the Imperial City Division."

"Yes, Brother Li said, I'm remembering it wrong, it's Osmanthus." Ye Qing smiled apologetically, then took a few steps back with Lin Guangchao, leaving the position next to the body for Lu Zujian and Hong Zun to check the body.

"Why did Lord Ye come at the first time?" After muttering a few words to King of Kings and Hong Zun, he turned his head and asked Ye Qing behind him.

"At the invitation of Lord Li of Shangshu." Ye Qing said simply.

"How do you say this?" Hong Zun asked.

"Mr. Hong should be very clear? On the New Year's Day, the Xia people came to Shangshu's Mansion to cause trouble and were arrested in the Imperial City Prison. Today is the day of His Royal Highness's wedding. Shangshu Li naturally did not want any mistakes to happen on this day, so as not to lose my Song Dynasty and face, so he asked her people to patrol here." Ye Qing smiled casually, looking at several pairs of eyes in front of him and said.

"Is this true?" Wang Zhiwang also asked.

Ye Qing still smiled casually without minding it, and then said, "If you ask Mr. Li, you will know the truth or falsehood."

"Have you ever seen Mr. Tang come to this embroidery building?" Lu Zujian asked again.

"No, this is the embroidery building of the Crown Princess. Without the order of the Crown Princess, I can only wait a hundred steps away. Moreover, I am not standing straight at the entrance of the embroidery building, but I have to patrol the entire huge back house." Ye Qing turned around and opened the window, looked at the flowers, and looked around and said, the backyard of Li's mansion, which was decorated with various festive decorations.

"So... according to Lord Ye's opinion, how should we investigate this matter?" Lu Zujian asked with a frown.

After spending a long time with King Zhao Yu, I have learned to shirk responsibility and protect myself. It is best not to interfere in such matters related to the royal family. Otherwise, it is very likely that both sides will not please each other and both sides will offend them in the end.

"I am just guarding the crime scene for the Crown Princess and helping the Crown Princess report to the officials. Since the Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, and even the Ministry of War have come, then there is no business for me. If the three adults have no questions, then it's time to say goodbye." Ye Qing said calmly, and he was about to leave and throw the mess in front of him to the people in front of him.
