Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 288 Clues

At the beginning of the morning sun, the mist floating in the woodland is gradually dissipating.

The people from the Jiangning government office rushed to the scene of the incident first, and there were some corpses left here, including men in black and big internal guards.

Seeing this scene, Peng Qingqing suppressed the feeling of vomiting and searched for Su Chen's body.

"Su Chen, where are you, Su Chen—"

Peng Qingqing's face was sad and full of worry, she kept yelling Su Chen's name, the corners of her eyes were full of tears, the more corpses she looked through, the colder her heart became.

She really wanted to find Su Chen quickly, but she didn't want to find Su Chen's body here, her heart was full of contradictions.

Peng Zeliang was also a little worried about Su Chen's whereabouts. After all, he was very clear about the importance of Su Chen to Sun's party's future layout; in addition, Su Chen was his daughter's fiancé after all, and he was also his prospective son-in-law, so it was too much to lose like this. pity.

Everyone knows that once Su Chen grows up, his future is bound to be limitless.

He saw Qingqing rummaging there, yelling and screaming, with a grief-stricken and anxious expression, Peng Zeliang couldn't help sighing softly: "Women are not allowed to stay in college!"My daughter is usually careless, but she never thought that she would fall in love with a man so infatuatedly.

Only when facing Su Chen, this daughter who is neither serious nor important, and who doesn't look like a lady, can she settle down like a girl.

Peng Zeliang sighed softly, walked forward, stood beside his daughter, stretched out his hand and patted her on the shoulder, and comforted her: "Qingqing, don't worry, Su Chenji has his own appearance, as a father, he once looked at Su Chen's face, It is a person with profound blessings, definitely not a short-lived ghost!"

Peng Qingqing stood up and looked at her father helplessly, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably, crying, "But, I can't find him."

Peng Zeliang said: "Not found here, at least it means that nothing happened to him; no news is the best news."

Peng Qingqing wiped her tears and said, "But...But, where is he? Is there any danger? How can I find him? My daughter is really worried that something will happen to him! "

"This..." Peng Zeliang was at a loss for words for a moment, and he didn't know how to search for it. The cheapest way was to send people around to search blindly.

At this time, there was a loud sound of horseshoes, the sound of armored armor was heard, and a team of Jinwu Guards rushed over.

There are about 200 people, all of whom are all cavalry. This is the guard in the imperial city, which is responsible for protecting the emperor and patrolling the capital. For some important cases involving important court affairs, the emperor will use Jinwu Guards to assist Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Investigation.

The chief of the Jinwu Guard this time is Sima Changying, the general of Youlang, about 30 years old, wearing a bright armor, shining brightly, because it is the Imperial Guard protecting the emperor, so the armor is more glamorous than other guards, and the appearance is very good. it is good.

"We belong to the Jinwu Guard, which Si Ya are you from?"

Peng Zeliang stepped forward and said: "Peng Zeliang, governor of Xiajiangning Prefecture, who is the commander of the Jinwu Guard?"

Sima Changying was regarded as a person who took refuge in the Sun Party, so he was very polite to him casually, cupped his fists and said, "Oh, it turns out that Mr. Peng Peng, the governor of Jiangning Prefecture, has come in person. I'm sorry, I'm the Jinwu Guard Youlang General Sima Changying. I am here to assist in the investigation of the assassination of the decree-delivering team, and to find out the whereabouts of Mr. Su Chen."

Peng Zeliang nodded and sighed: "The vicious fight here took place last night. Judging by the stiffness of the corpse, Wu Zuo has been dead for more than five hours. Su Chen is not here, and he probably escaped. The most urgent thing is to send troops to spread around. Pursue, check all the directions on the ground where there are horseshoe prints and footprints."

"It makes sense, first send some people to look around."

Sima Changying immediately chose the two capitals, divided a hundred people into several teams, and began to search around the periphery according to the traces of horseshoes on the ground and blood stains.

A moment later, Cao Yongqin, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, and Liu Jin, the official of the Ministry of Punishment, each brought their own officials and rushed over on horseback.

The people from Sifang's office met each other, and they all inspected the scene.

Cao Yongqin cupped his hands and said politely: "Your Excellency, the Shaoqing of Xia Dali Temple, is your Excellency the newly appointed Lord Yin Peng of Jiangning Mansion?"

Peng Zeliang returned the courtesy and said, "It's Peng who met Cao Shaoqing."

"You're welcome, it should be Mr. Cao who visited Mr. Peng." Cao Yongqin was quite polite, and greeted him in a neutral manner.

Peng Zeliang's status as Jiangning governor is from the third grade, and his son's Dali Temple Shaoqing is from the fourth grade. The two are indeed inferior in rank. Even though Dali Temple is responsible for breaking the prison and the body, and has some power, the Jiangning government governs the capital. Big and small affairs, power is also huge.

What's more, the governor of the capital where the capital is located is not an ordinary person who can take up the post, he must be someone who is trusted by the official family.

Sun Dang also worked very hard, trying to tie Peng Zeliang and Su Chen to Sun Dang's chariot, which made this promotion possible.

At this time, after cleaning up the scene, the bodies of the dead Ouchi guards and the black-clothed assassins were placed in a row.

"My lord, these tokens were found from the man in black." The Dali Temple guard delivered two tokens to the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

At the same time, the guards of the Jinwu Guard and the police officers of the Jiangning government office also took tokens from the man in black.

Cao Yongqin was surprised and said, "Where have you seen this kind of token? Ah... I remembered, isn't this the token of the Wu De Division of the Northern Great Song Dynasty?"

Liu Jin was taken aback by the Ministry of Punishment and said, "Could it be that the secret agent of the Wu De Division of the Song Dynasty really did the assassination?"

"But, why are they dealing with this edict-delivering team?" Sima Changying spoke bluntly, expressing his doubts.

Cao Yongqin smiled lightly and said: "It's not difficult to explain. There is Su Chen and Mr. Su in the imperial edict team. He is in the limelight these days, his reputation spreads far and wide, his poetry talent, his workmanship, and smallpox treatment. It is not impossible to get the attention of the intelligence network of the Northern Song Dynasty, maybe they are not here to kill people, or they are here to rob Mr. Su Chen and take him to the Song Dynasty."

Peng Zeliang's countenance changed when he heard the words. If it was really the secret spy of the Great Song Dynasty who was after Su Chen, it would be really tricky.

On the way here, he kept thinking about whether it was because of Su Chen that he was caught in a party struggle. Some people didn't want him to enter Jinling alive, and most of the considerations were people from the Song party and the princes of the Li family.

But at this time, Wu Desi of the Great Song Dynasty, the secret spy of the enemy country, was involved, and the situation became complicated.

Sima Changying said with a serious face: "If it involves the Song State in the north, then the matter will be even more difficult. This is a big matter. You should go back and report it to the officials."

Hearing this, Peng Qingqing became even more anxious, and the sword in her hand tightened even more.

Cao Yongqin, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, waved his hands and shouted: "Come here, bury all the corpses, so as not to rot, and exposure to the sun after rain will easily cause plague."

Peng Zeliang came back to his senses, and stopped immediately: "Stop, these corpses can't be buried immediately, we need to ask Wu Zuo to draw these people's special appearance, and post them for everyone to claim, so as to find out their true identities."

Sima Changying nodded when he heard the words, thinking it made sense, but Cao Yongqin's face changed slightly.
