Chapter 47 Investigation Team
·
Tie Ma Fei Qiao
Turning the corner of the street, he didn't return to Xu's house, but went straight to Yuelai Inn.
It was late at night when he returned to Xu's house, and Liu Wuxie continued to devote himself to his cultivation. The investigation team was like an uncertain sword, which could be cut on his head at any time.
The Taihuang Swallowing Heaven Art allows him to have an extraordinary dantian, unparalleled true energy, and a strong physical body. The disadvantages are also obvious, and the breakthrough speed is much slower than ordinary people.
Everything has advantages and disadvantages!
The sky is slightly bright, and the whole Canglan City is full of wind and rain. The four major families have ordered that their disciples should be reduced as much as possible.
He let out a mouthful of turbid air, and after a night of practice, his true energy has become much stronger, and there is still a long way to go before breaking through the fourth level of innateness.
"Patriarch, the investigation team first stationed in the Song family, and started the investigation from them."
One after another news came back to the Xu family, Xu Yilin sat upright in the main hall, waved his hand, the spies continued to inquire about the news, and came back immediately to report.
Liu Wuxie was practicing sword skills in the yard, and his father-in-law told him that he had nothing else to do, so he should stay at home as much as possible and not go out for the next two days.
An hour later, the inspection team came out from the gate of the Song family. Song Tianhao personally escorted them out.
"Mr. Kong, the hospitality is not good, please Haihan, when the investigation is over, Song will definitely clean up the couch, I will not waste everyone's time, I hope the investigation goes well."
Song Tianhao stooped over his luggage. The sixtieth old man was surnamed Kong and his real name was Kong Yi. He was a big man like the master of the Great Yan Dynasty, but he had no real power, but he was respected by others because he also had another identity, the first teacher of the current prince of the Great Yan Dynasty.
The other four people included figures from the military and the royal family, and even the Imperial Academy sent one person here. The soldiers who died were formerly students of the Imperial Academy.
Thousands of soldiers were killed on the battlefield, and they would not be so laborious. This time, these Shipo soldiers left the camp without authorization. After investigation, they embezzled 1000 million gold coins for military expenses.
Such a big problem broke out within Shi Pojun, and this matter must be investigated clearly. People must be seen in life, and corpses must be seen in death.
It would be a great humiliation to the Dayan Dynasty if they took military expenses and defected to the enemy country, and this should be the most important point.
"Send Patriarch Song here, please forgive me for disturbing you!"
Kong Lao bent down and bowed. Although he was a master, he did not have the slightest airs. This is also the most important reason why he is respected by others.
Watching the investigation team leave, Song Tianhao heaved a sigh of relief. The five of them were all seasoned figures, and if they made a slight mistake, they fell into their trap. Fortunately, none of the Song family's disciples left Canglan City these days, and the investigation was quick. End.
"Patriarch, the next place is Wanjia."
The Great Elder came over and said in a low voice, the Song family has separated their relationship, and there are three remaining families, each of which is on pins and needles.
"I heard that the Xu family boy is back?"
Song Tianhao asked, although the formation hall has been stabilized, it has not been fully restored. The materials Liu Wuxie needs have been prepared a few days ago, waiting for him to come to repair the formation. The fate of the Song family has already been tied to him. together.
"Yes, I came back yesterday!"
The Great Elder answered truthfully, mentioning Liu Wuxie, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he still had lingering fears about the knife that day.
"Clear it up, and tell the Xu family exactly what the investigation team asked today, and don't let anyone know."
Song Tianhao suddenly made a decision to inform the Xu family in advance of the investigation team's inquiry, so that they could be prepared in advance and spread to the investigation team's ears. That would be a serious crime.
"Patriarch, this is inappropriate!"
The Great Elder wanted to stop it, which was against the rules. First of all, the Xu family ranked last, and the Song family ranked first. The order of the investigation team this time was also divided according to the family level, and the Song family was the first to choose.
Secondly, leaking the news is tantamount to secretly tipping off the news. If the investigation team finds out, the Song family will be doomed.
"Recently, our Song family is short of a few weapons, so we sent someone to the weapon workshop to buy some weapons back."
Song Tianhao waved his hand, turned around and walked into the gate, the Great Elder understood, and immediately arranged for people to handle the matter. At this time, he went directly to Xu's house, wouldn't it be the most suitable place to buy weapons without 300 taels of silver here?
Half an hour later, Xu Yilin received an unexpected surprise, the Song family's investigation report was delivered to him.
"The Song family deliberately leaked the investigation information to us. What kind of medicine are they selling in the gourd?"
Xu Yilin clasped his hands, and the report in his hand was reduced to ashes, and all the investigation information inside was known.
"It's not a bad thing anyway, we know what the investigation team will ask in advance, so we can take precautions!"
Deacon Lan can more or less guess something, but he is not sure yet, so it is not easy to jump to conclusions.
An hour later, the investigation team came out from the Wanjia. Wan Rongzhe personally went out to see them off, followed by several Wan family elders. Judging from the expressions on their faces, the Wanjia had passed the test, and the investigation team found nothing.
Tian's next stop!
After two full hours of investigation, it was already afternoon when they walked out of Tian's house, and the investigation team still had no clue. The clues provided by several major families, as well as their recent activities, had nothing to do with Shi Pojun.
Before arriving at Xu's house, Xu Yilin was already standing outside the gate to greet him.
"Junior Xu Yilin, I have met Mr. Kong..." Bending over his luggage, he bowed his hands to the people behind him as a greeting.
"Patriarch Xu is polite. We follow orders. If there is any offense, please ask Patriarch Xu Haihan."
Mr. Kong returned it with a big gift, and under the leadership of Xu Yilin, a group of people entered the main hall of the Xu family. All the deacons who were away from the Xu family rushed back, and they all had to be investigated.
Everyone took their seats, and the Xu family's deacon stood on both sides, waiting for their interrogation. Everyone didn't dare to take a breath. Although Xu Yilin received the investigation report sent by the Song family, he was still a little nervous after thinking about how to answer it.
"Patriarch Xu, let me ask you the first question. Ten years ago, who from your Xu family entered the Sunset Mountain Range."
Elder Kong didn't speak, a middle-aged man came out from behind him, a figure in the military, almost the same as the report provided by the Song family, this man was called Baiqiu, and he was the commander of the Tianzi Battalion of the Shipo Army.
The dead Zhou Hu and fifty Shi Pojun were under his command, so it was normal for him to ask questions.
"Return to General Bai, recently our Xu family has three convoys that entered the Sunset Mountains to transport resource ores. This is their information."
After finishing speaking, Deacon Lan took out a list and handed it to Baiqiu, which recorded detailed information on each person, including their family members, division of strength, etc., and the records were very detailed.
Baiqiu looked it over and handed the list to Kong Lao.
Of the characters recorded on the list, Executive Qi is the most powerful, but he is born with a seven-fold birth, which is not enough to deal with Shi Pojun.
Obviously they don't have the ability to kill Shi Pojun, they can be ruled out, everything must be an exception, how can the investigation team be able to make a conclusion just because of a list.
After reading it, Mr. Kong didn't express his opinion, and handed the list to other people for them to read it again.
One by one, it was passed on to a middle-aged man with a hooked nose. He watched it more carefully than the others. A drop of cold sweat fell from Xu Yi's forehead. He was not very worried about the others, but this one alone.
His name is Xue Chunyu, he is an official in the imperial court, and he is the servant of the household department. He is a member of the Xue family in the imperial capital. The Xue Yu I met in the Colosseum last time is also from the Xue family. It is indispensable.
"Patriarch Xu, this list is wrong!"
Xue Chunyu smirked, and threw the list on the table, very angry. Even Lao Kong was taken aback by this answer. The four major families did not dare to provide a fake list. The Xu family seemed to have no roots. Duckweed, who neither flattered the big family of the capital city of God, nor had any backing, dared to deceive the superior and the inferior in the face of the investigation team's investigation, and tried to fool the past with a fake list. This is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Yilin bit the bullet, stood up, and asked cautiously.
"As far as I know, your son-in-law entered the Sunset Mountains eight days ago and only came back yesterday. I'm right."
Xue Chunyu asked, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
"Reporting to Xue Shilang, the investigation team investigated the people who entered the Sunset Mountain Range ten days ago. Your son-in-law did enter the Sunset Mountain Range. You also said that it happened eight days ago, so it did not appear on the list."
Xu Yilin quickly explained that Liu Wuxie's entry into the Sunset Mountain Range couldn't be concealed, so he simply admitted it.
The last time Shi Pojun appeared in Canglan City was half a month ago. Since then, there has been no news.
Liu Wuxie entered the Sunset Mountain Range eight days ago, and there was a slight gap in time between the two sides.
Of course, Qi Enshi would not admit that he sent Shi Pojun half a month ago to plunder the Xu family's mines. No one mentioned it, including the Tian family and Wan family. After Shi Pojun entered the Sunset Mountain Range, they disappeared.
When Shi Pojun disappeared, Liu Wuxie was still practicing in Canglan City, and everyone who knew it knew that the two sides had no connection.
"Who told you that we only investigate the list of people who entered the Sunset Mountains ten days ago. You deliberately concealed this person. Could it be that you know something? Or did your Xu family deliberately cover up this person, and Shi Pojun's disappearance has something to do with him?"
This is blatantly accusing the Xu family of a crime. Baiqiu showed a strange look. It stands to reason that there is really no suspicion that he entered the Sunset Mountains eight days ago. Qi Enshi had already done a copy of the general situation of the four major families before he came. Detailed report.
The fact that Liu Wuxie is a waste, naturally also appeared on the list.
"Xue Shilang, what do you mean? Our Xu family has always been fair and law-abiding. We have never done anything harmful to nature, and we have never done anything harmful to the Dayan Dynasty. Please respect our Xu family."
Xu Yilin raised his head, with determination in his eyes, he still didn't know why Xue Chunyu wanted to target the Xu family, and it must not have anything to do with Shi Pojun's disappearance.
"What I mean is very simple. Ask your son-in-law to come out and confront him. In the past eight days in the Sunset Mountains, what have you done and whoever you met, you must have a witness present to prove his innocence."
If you want to add a crime, why worry!
Eight characters flashed in Xu Yilin's mind, blatantly imposing a crime on the Xu family, this investigation must have an answer, if not, how to explain to His Majesty.
In just one breath, Xu Yilin figured out the key point. After all, they needed a scapegoat.
The mysterious disappearance of Shi Pojun was a humiliation to the Dayan Dynasty.
This humiliation needs to be borne by people, and the disappearance in Canglan City is of course borne by the people of Canglan City.
Wan's family and Tian's family wooed the big tree of Xue's family, so naturally they didn't dare to move it. The Song family was close to the Li family in the imperial capital. Before the investigation, the Li family probably had greeted them long ago. In addition, no disciples of the Song family entered the setting sun. The investigation of the mountains took less than half an hour.
The hall fell into silence. The deacons of the Xu family were not fools, they had already heard the overtones, and their hearts sank to the bottom of the valley.
It was late at night when he returned to Xu's house, and Liu Wuxie continued to devote himself to his cultivation. The investigation team was like an uncertain sword, which could be cut on his head at any time.
The Taihuang Swallowing Heaven Art allows him to have an extraordinary dantian, unparalleled true energy, and a strong physical body. The disadvantages are also obvious, and the breakthrough speed is much slower than ordinary people.
