Biquge www.xbiquge.cc, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Sun Moon Fenghua!When Chen Xi, the young superintendent of the Purple Clothes Supervisor with a black flowing cloud skirt, appeared outside the lobby of Kyoto Prefecture, officials of all sizes, led by Yin Xiayanzhi of Kyoto Prefecture, went out to meet them.
"Master Chen, Master Chen." Xia Yanzhi almost trot to meet Chen Xi, waving one hand forward, as if he saw an old friend who had been reunited for a long time, but his voice was respectful: "What brings you here? The Kyoto government office is really brilliant today, come, come, come in, come in!"
At this juncture, the people from the Purple Clothes Prison suddenly arrived, Xia Yanzhi smiled and sweated on his back.
After the saint ascended the throne, the biggest change in the kingdom was that the power of the eunuch in the harem began to rise.
Since the founding of Datang, although there have been times when eunuchs have become popular, so far, no real storm has been set off.
The emperor of the past dynasties both used and prevented the eunuchs, and would never allow the eunuchs to form an influence.
However, the eunuch has become a powerful force for more than ten years since the saint ascended the throne.
As we all know, Menxia Province is actually controlled by the chief eunuch of the palace, and the North Court, which goes hand in hand with the South Court, was directly controlled by the Menxia Province in the early days. Only a few years ago, the saint made an order and the princess Musk Moon suspended the North Court. The North Campus became an independent yamen.
But the Northern Court originally belonged to the sphere of influence of the eunuch. Although it was no longer directly controlled by the province, it was still regarded as the sphere of influence of the province.
Another yamen of the eunuch's power is the Ziyi Jian.
The Ziyijian was directly ordered by the emperor and was not affected by any other yamen. However, the chief of the Ziyijian was the chief eunuch of the inner palace who controlled the province, so the Ziyijian actually became the direct line of the province.
If the Ministry of Criminal Justice requires cumbersome procedures such as investigation, interrogation, etc., then the murder in the prison is like a drizzle in March, moisturizing things silently, without any formalities. Of course, even if you die in the hands of the prison, there will be nothing One can find the slightest clue.
The Criminal Ministry killed people in the light, while the Ziyi prison killed people in the dark.
Some people can take advantage of the crimes of the Criminal Ministry to kill the enemy in an upright manner, but some people can only assassinate secretly.
For example, the first emperor’s compatriot brother Qing Wangye, Wen Taowulue, was also loyal to the first emperor. He once served as the ambassador of the Southern Court. Although he was a prince, he was low-key, humble and polite, and won the hearts of the people.
Xiahou ascended the throne. Although Prince Qing did not stand up against him, everyone knew that the greatest threat to the Queen Xiahou was the Prince Qing.
The first emperor did not have a prince. Zhao Yankuo and others wrote to oppose Xiahou's succession to the throne. The meaning behind it was clearly that Prince Qing inherited the throne.
Not long after Zhao Yankuo and others were beheaded, Prince Qing, who was living in the mansion, suddenly passed away due to illness. The palace sent people to seal the palace at the first time. More than two hundred people were in the palace. On the day of his burial. , All were sacrificed.
The strangeness of Prince Qing’s death, but everyone knows it clearly, the death of Prince Qing is almost always done by the Ziyi prison.
At that time, the Ziyi Prison had not yet been established, but before the death of the first emperor, Xiahou had already controlled a terrifying force composed of palace eunuchs. This force was led by the chief of the inner palace. In two months, the Ziyi Supervision was established.
The officials in the DPRK knew that the Ziyi Supervisor was terrifying and knew that they killed people invisible, but no one had ever seen the Ziyi Supervisor kill people. It was because the people who could see the Ziyi Supervisor do something must be the target of the Ziyi Supervisor.
The Ziyijian was like a dagger hidden by the saint in his sleeve, he would suddenly take it out when he was not sure, and put it to death.
Even Yoon Ha in Kyoto Prefecture
Yanzhi didn't know much about Ziyi Supervisor, but he still knew the minds of the Ziyi Supervisor.
In addition to the chief supervisor, the Ziyi Supervisor has two health supervisors, and each of them has two young supervisors, and Chen Xi is one of the four young supervisors of the Ziyi Supervisor.
It is rumored that two guards perform their duties, one is responsible for intelligence and the other is responsible for operations. This is like marching operations, one is responsible for money, food and equipment logistics, and the other is responsible for leading soldiers in combat. But is this the case? It is also difficult for officials to be sure.
If the Criminal Department is disgusting, and the officials in the DPRK are unwilling to contact the criminals because of their contempt and disgust, then the purple prison is synonymous with horror and mystery, and the group of eunuchs full of yin and prey breaths makes hundreds of officials stay away.
The Ziyijian never actively contacted the officials of the DPRK and China, and would not interfere with the government officials.
Today, the young supervisor of the Ziyi Supervisor, Chen Xi, came suddenly. This is really an abnormal thing for the Kyoto Prefecture, and it is also something that makes everyone's mind very nervous.
Chen Xi was dressed in a purple flowing cloud skirt, and when Xia Yan came up, she was the first to bow her hand. She was not arrogant, but rather very humble: "Master Xia, excuse me. Hong Ling was killed in the murder case. Be responsible for?"
Chen Xi is straight to the point, but Xia Yan's heart is tight, thinking that the palace sent him to inquire about the case, right?
Less than two days later, Xia Yanzhi had no clue about the murderer. If the palace really sent Chen Xi to inquire about the progress of the case, he really didn’t know how to respond. He was in a panic and grudgingly said with a smile: “That’s right. Bian was handling the case of the Ministry of War, so Hongling’s case was accounted for and handled by Kyoto Prefecture."
"Where is the murder weapon?" Chen Xi said sharply.
Xia Yanzhi immediately turned around and said: "Quickly, get the murder weapon, hurry up." Raised his hand and said, "Master Chen first go in for a cup of tea."
The young master of the Purple Clothes Prison came to interrogate the case personally, and the people in Kyoto Prefecture were naturally panicked.
As soon as the tea came up, the judge of Kyoto Prefecture personally took the murder weapon and placed it on the table. Except for the long bow and arrow box, the clothes, waist and armor were all placed on the table.
"Master Chen, this was found in the forest near the Taoist Temple." Xia Yanzhi personally explained: "After the real man was assassinated last night, the Changsheng Temple reported to the Criminal Ministry overnight. After dawn, he immediately reported the past to the Palace . When the Night Punishment Department received the report, it handed over the case to Kyoto Prefecture, so before dawn, the Xiaguan sent people to investigate the crime scene. Before the palace’s order came down, the Xiaguan had ordered someone to protect it. on site."
As Yin of the Kyoto Prefecture, he was also a third-rank official in Datang, and he was equal to the ministers of various ministries.
The Ziyi Supervisor is a special yamen. Although there are officials such as general manager, health supervisor, and junior supervisor, it is not considered a rank.
The third-rank official even took the shot even in Kyoto, but in the face of the junior supervisor of the Ziyi Supervisor, regardless of his rank, Xia Yanzhi still claimed to be an official.
"Tang Fucheng, you took the people to the scene that night. You will report the details to Master Chen." Xia Yanzhi waved to an official nearby, and the official immediately came forward, bending over and saying: "Xiaguan Cheng Tang Jing, Kyoto Prefecture, pays homage to Master Chen." He seemed very humble.
The highest official of Kyoto Prefecture is naturally Yin Xiayanzhi of Kyoto Prefecture, and the second in command is this Tang Prefecture Cheng.
"Tang Fucheng will talk about the situation." Chen Xi was calm and composed, with a slight smile on her face.
"The real man Hongling was shot through his throat. It can be concluded that the murderer's archery skills are extremely good, and his strength is extremely strong, otherwise it would never be possible to directly penetrate his neck." Tang Jing said sternly, "Even if it is a dragon scale, they ride She Wushuang, but with the strength to let the arrow go through his throat, he is also rare."
"Tang Mansion Cheng, just talk about the case and don't get involved with other people." Xia Yanzhi coughed, slightly displeased.
Tang Jing said hurriedly: "Yes." He continued: "When the real Hongling was killed, he was only wearing a pair of trousers and his upper body was naked. He was about to rest. There was a cup of tea and tea on the table...!" After looking at Xia Yanzhi, he didn't know whether to continue.
"Look at what I am doing?" Xia Yanzhi frowned, "Report all the originals you know to Master Chen, and don't miss a clue."
"Tang Mansion Cheng, you have something to say directly, you don't need to be scrupulous." Chen Xi smiled and said: "You know some things. The saints have a lot of opportunities every day. Sometimes you need to use elixir to nurture the dragon body. Hongling is good at alchemy for many years. Responsible for refining the pill for the palace, the saint praised him quite a bit. Although he is an outsider, he has been doing errands for the palace. Now some people are bold enough to assassinate the real person. The saint Longyan is furious, and the assassin kills He is a real person, but the target is clearly directed at the palace, at the feet of the emperor, the murderers are so rampant, if we courtiers can't even find the murderer, wouldn't it make the world laugh?"
"Master Chen is absolutely right." Xia Yanzhi said hurriedly: "The subordinates and others are naturally doing their best to solve this case as soon as possible."
Tang Jing bowed slightly before continuing: "After inspection, in that cup of tea, it seems...!"
"Tang Fucheng, you are responsible for criminal investigations and investigating cases. Don't use the word "seem"." Chen Xi interrupted, "Especially when it comes to exhibits, let alone ambiguity. Even you can't make a positive judgment. How to convince others?"
"The adults are pointing." Tang Jing said: "We concluded that there are medicines mixed in the tea. If you drink the tea, you can make people feel weak in a moment. The effect is quite similar to the softness used by the little gangster. Jinsan, but this medicine and Ruanjinsan are not exactly the same."
Chen Xi didn't speak, but stood by the table with her hands behind her back and listened carefully.
"In addition, we expanded our search and soon found the weapon in the forest outside the Taoist temple." Tang Jing pointed to the bow and arrow on the table with a loud voice: "The forest is fifty or sixty steps away from the side wall of the Taoist temple. It’s not dense. After the real man of Hongling entered the longevity view, he said that he planted a forest there, and the feng shui of Taoism would be very good, so the forest was planted for less than ten years. Bows and arrows and armor were found in the forest. After comparing, we determined that the arrow in the quiver box was exactly the same as the sharp arrow that shot the real Hongling. Therefore, it can be concluded that the things in the forest are indeed murder weapons and were abandoned by the murderer in the forest."
Chen Xi nodded slightly, but still did not speak.
"We also found that the murderer's arrows are slightly different from ordinary arrows." Xia Yanzhi finally said: "His arrow clusters have long barbs and heavier than ordinary arrows. Master Chen knows that arrows The weight of the arrow is directly related to the speed of the arrow. Generally speaking, only the sharp clusters of arrows are needed to penetrate the enemy's body. In fact, the barbs do not need to be too particular. After all, even the slightest amount of weight will have a great impact on the speed. . But the murderer doesn’t care about this, which shows that he is very confident in himself and is not worried that the extra barbs will affect his speed.
"And his longbow. The stem, horns, tendons, glue, silk, and lacquer are all top materials." Tang Jing obviously studied this bow and arrow in detail: "Even if it is equipped by the Guard The bows and arrows of China have not been able to achieve such a sophisticated, such a sophisticated longbow, the cost is at least seven or eighty taels of silver. However, it is necessary to collect all these materials, and also be able to make such a longbow with exquisite technology. , It’s not easy. Although the cost is less than one hundred taels, the scarcity is more expensive. Such a refined bow would be difficult to obtain without two or three hundred taels of silver."
Chen Xi smiled at the corner of her mouth, and said, "Being able to know this, Tang Fucheng is indeed UBM Guangji. What else can you find?"
