Chapter 1905 Who is it?

"Did you send someone to kill those people?" Jin Zheyun asked seriously, looking at Du Dezhong standing in front of him.

In the imperial study, there were only the two of them at this time. All the eunuchs and palace maids were driven out by Jin Zheyun, because what he wanted to say to Du Dezhong was of great importance and could not be known to others.

"No!" Du Dezhong said very confidently: "Your Majesty asked me to start the layout, but the time was too short and I haven't started yet."

Jin Zheyun frowned and nodded.

Indeed, he had just asked Du Dezhong to lay out the affairs of the Xie family. Du Dezhong couldn't act so quickly. What's more, he just asked Du Dezhong to lay out the affairs first, and didn't ask Du Dezhong to assassinate the generals of the Xie family. You know, the influence of the Xie family in Tianji Country is very large. If you act rashly, it is very likely to cause a backlash from the other party, and something unmanageable will happen at that time.

Killing a few generals of the Xie family is simple, but that requires considering the consequences of doing so. Not only is it foolproof, but Jin Zheyun obviously won't do that.

"Who could it be?" Jin Zheyun muttered to himself.

The killing of the generals of the Xie family was both a good thing and a bad thing for Jin Zheyun.

The good thing was that he was just about to take action against the Xie family. Now that the generals of the Xie family were killed, the power of the Xie family was weakened. In this way, it would be easier for him to take action against the Xie family.

As for the bad thing, it was because this incident might arouse the Xie family's vigilance.

Originally, he asked Du Dezhong to secretly lay out the plan and not let the Xie family find out. He would only take action against the Xie family after the plan was completed. However, now that many generals of the Xie family were killed, it would inevitably attract the attention of the Xie family. In this case, the nerves of the Xie family would inevitably be sensitive, and it is very likely that he would discover his secret actions.

Now Jin Zheyun was not sure whether this matter was more beneficial than harmful or more harmful than beneficial to him. More importantly, he did not know who the murderer was.

You know, those generals of the Xie family who were killed were surrounded by people who protected them. The assassin was able to break through those protections and assassinate these generals one by one, which was enough to show the strength of the other party. If the other party only killed a few people, it would be fine. If the other party's target was all the senior generals of their Tianji country, then for their Tianji country, this would be a disaster.

Du Dezhong heard Jin Zheyun's mumbling and looked a little hesitant. His reaction was seen by Jin Zheyun, and he couldn't help asking: "Do you have anything to say?"

"Your Majesty, General Wu came to me not long ago." After hesitating for a while, Du Dezhong still told Jin Zheyun the truth.

"General Wu?"

"It's Wu Fan from Yanfeng Country."

"What did he ask you for? Is it related to this matter?" Jin Zheyun asked in confusion.

"I don't know if it has anything to do with this matter." Du Dezhong said, "But he asked me about the situation of the Xie family and asked me if there were any generals from the Xie family in and outside Tianxing City. I didn't think much about it at the time and told him the lives of those generals from the Xie family."

"Oh, is that true?" Jin Zheyun instantly became alert.

Isn't this too coincidental?

"Absolutely true." Du Dezhong said.

Jin Zheyun frowned even deeper. He looked at Du Dezhong and asked, "Do you think this is a coincidence, or is he really related to this matter?"

"This... I can't tell." Du Dezhong said.

This matter is indeed too coincidental, but to say that those people were all killed by Wu Fan, Du Dezhong felt it was too difficult. He had seen Wu Fan's skills and he was indeed very strong, but those generals who were killed were protected by many people around them, but the assassins came and went freely.

What's more, when some people were killed, there were more than one assassin, and the assassins had helpers! Moreover, there were more than one!

But Wu Fan has no one around him now. Except for Shao Haogang, there is no one else. Where can he find so many helpers? Are they all spies from Yanfeng Country hiding in Tianxing City? It is possible, but it is unlikely.

Jin Zheyun thought about it and said, "You go to talk to Wu Fan, find out what he is saying, and investigate this matter secretly. In addition, you should hurry up and be more careful about the layout of the Xie family."

"Yes, I will obey your order!"

After Du Dezhong left the palace, he went straight to Zhao Qi's temporary residence. He was also very curious about this matter and wanted to find out.

After Du Dezhong left, Jin Zheyun was still thinking about this matter: "Is it Wu Fan?"

Jin Zheyun was not sure about this.

If it was really Wu Fan, why did he do this? Is it just to seek justice for their princess? Or is there another purpose?

If it was not Wu Fan, who would it be? What is his purpose in doing this?

In Jin Zheyun's heart, he didn't quite believe that this was done by Wu Fan. Although Wu Fan was highly suspected, he didn't think that Wu Fan had such strength. Perhaps, it was done by one of the enemies of the Xie family.

Although the Xie family was very powerful in Tianji Country, it didn't mean that they didn't have mortal enemies. This might be done by one of the mortal enemies of the Xie family.

Jin Zheyun felt a little uneasy. He always had a feeling of fear. He instinctively decided that this matter would not be so simple. So, at this time, he urgently wanted to know who the assassin was, or who sent the other party.

"It's really a troubled time." Jin Zheyun sighed.

Jin Bingli's body was not yet completely cold, and this happened again. This incident made Jin Zheyun feel overwhelmed.

If it was any other time, when the Xie family was assassinated, Jin Zheyun would not take it to heart, and even secretly applauded.

But at this sensitive time, when such a thing happened, Jin Zheyun couldn't help but think too much.

Fortunately, he didn't feel that things were out of control. He had been an emperor for many years, and he had experienced all kinds of storms. This kind of thing would not make him lose his sense of proportion.

When Du Dezhong rushed to Zhao Qi's temporary residence, he saw Wu Fan playing chess with Zhao Qi. The two were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite relaxed.

"General Du is here?" Wu Fan saw Du Dezhong and greeted him with a smile: "Why are you rushing here so quickly?"

Du Dezhong stared at Wu Fan, trying to see something from his expression, but Wu Fan's expression was very relaxed, without any abnormality.

"Nothing, just came to see you." Du Dezhong said: "By the way, have you heard about the things in the city?"

"What's the matter?" Wu Fan asked.

"Many generals of the Xie family have been assassinated!" Du Dezhong said, looking at Wu Fan's face: "Now the city is in an uproar, don't you know?"
