Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 225

Yin time late at night.

The holy capital returned to tranquility, the fire was extinguished, the sound of the cannons disappeared, and everything was silent.

If he hadn't seen those soldiers in heavy armor with his own eyes before, Xu Zun would have had the illusion that nothing had happened.

A Xiu boy has been away for two hours, but he still hasn't returned at this moment.

Xu Zun and others didn't dare to leave Cao Ding's house rashly without waiting for definite news.

At this moment, Tie Jing had already found a guest room to sleep in;

Although Dongfang Enchanting is still there, she is leaning on the grand teacher's chair and closing her eyes to rest.

Chen Taiji was pacing at the entrance of the hall, looking more and more anxious.

Xu Zun knew that Chen Taiji was different from himself, his family members were all in the holy capital, even if he didn't think about Jiangshan Sheji, he must be thinking about his family.

However, Xu Zun didn't have the energy to comfort him.

Because he was still thinking about these seventeen bizarre assassination cases.

At this moment, he drew two marks on the paper with a brush. The ones on the stone pillars of Yingrang's house were two dots and one dot, while the ones on the furniture of Cao Ding's house were three dots and one dot.

Looking at these two marks, Xu Zun wanted to know more about the scene of the other victims, whether there were marks left behind?
What is this mark for?
If we can know what it means, will we be able to catch those assassins?

For some reason, Xu Zun had an intuition that those assassins had not left the holy capital, and they seemed to have more important tasks.

I don't know if they did this mutiny?
In addition, through the current investigation, Xu Zun realized that this unprecedented assassination was extremely complicated and not as simple as it seemed.

Behind it, a lot of information, a lot of personnel arrangements, and fast and accurate information transmission are necessary. These points alone are enough to make Xu Zun feel cold.

He has already realized that the reason why Xuanmen set up the "Heavenly Tribulation" plan must have something to rely on behind it.

So... Will it be like in the TV series, behind the Xuanmen, there will be a high-ranking, prominent undercover agent?
Of course, maybe it was just like what Dongfang Yaoluo said, she worked so hard to investigate the case in vain, but in the end it was just a futile effort.

No one knows which side won the mutiny just now.

Perhaps at this very moment, Daxuan's regime is changing, and after dawn, I don't know what will happen?
"My lord, here..."

At this time, Ani handed Xu Zun a piece of paper with five or six strange symbols drawn on it.

"These marks are all used by us for simple communication, such as this..." Ani pointed to one of them and said, "This means there are people here; this means escaping; this means the direction..."

"Oh..." Xu Zun nodded, "So you can notice that mark when you're winning!"

"Yes," Ani said, "Because Taoist disciples are arrested every year, these contact numbers often change.

"I have a feeling..." Ani said, "The Yuanzhou Daoist who adopted me back then should have come! I..."

Seeing Ani's worried face, Xu Zun persuaded: "Don't worry! We have a bitter mother, and we will protect you."

"I...I'm not worried about this..." Ani said, "I'm worried..."

As a result, before Ani finished speaking, Zhao Yu ran into the hall and shouted loudly: "My lord, Ashius is back!"

After finishing speaking, I saw Ashio running in panting.

Chen Taiji was the first to go up to him and asked, "How is it? What happened?"

Dongfang Enchanting also opened her eyes and came closer.

"My... my lord..." Ashio reported to Xu Zunhui, "Gong Peng, the general of the hussars, joined forces with several commanders of the imperial army, as well as the guards of Fengyang Gate and others to make trouble, and attempted to attack under the banner of the Qing emperor. Into the palace!"

"What?" Dongfang Enchanting was taken aback, "Entering Fengyang Gate is Wanfu Palace, this is... this is for the Queen Mother!"

"This..." Chen Taiji clenched his fists and said, "General Gong is an important figure in the imperial power faction. He has always wanted the emperor to be in charge, and now he has finally found an excuse."

"Then..." Dongfang Yaoluo hurriedly asked, "And then? Did they succeed or did they fail?"

Who knows, Xu Zun took the lead to say before Ah Xiuzai answered, "Needless to say, I must have failed!"

"You..." Dongfang Yaoluo's eyes widened, "How do you know?"

"Yes, my lord," Ashius asked, "How do you know?"

"Pay attention to your wording," Xu Zun said with a dry laugh, "You said just now that he committed a crime, so that means he failed? If he succeeds, why don't you change the wording?"

"Oh..." Ashius blushed for a while, and said, "This matter may have been revealed long ago, the Queen Mother had already prepared for it, and the rebellion was suppressed as soon as it started.

"Gong Peng and a group of rebels were all captured. At this moment...the queen mother has summoned the ministers to enter the palace, and Cai Geling has also been summoned..."

"Oh..." Xu Zun nodded, "That is to say, we still have to continue investigating this case?"

"Ah?" Everyone was surprised, "Still checking!!?"

……

At dawn, Xu Zun and his group returned to Neiwei Mansion.

Although Xu Zun really wanted to continue investigating the case, after all such a big incident happened, he had to calm down first and figure out the ins and outs.

Besides, Tie Jing, Dongfang Yaoluo, Chen Taiji and others will also return to their units to perform their duties. Presumably there will be a decree when the court disperses.

Xu Zun also did not expect that the first night he came to Xuanmiao City was a sleepless night.

After staying up all night, after having breakfast, he found a bedroom to chat with Ku Niang and take a nap.

Unexpectedly, when he entered the house with his front foot, Zhao Yu called him back. It turned out that Cai Kun had returned.

Xu Zun had no choice but to simply wash his face, and went to the hall to meet Cai Kun.

Good guy!
When Xu Zun saw Cai Kun, he found that Cai Kun seemed to be a different person, his face was pale and wrinkled, as if he had been greatly frightened.

"Lord Cai," Xu Zun quickly moved Cai Kun to the upper seat, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Has something serious happened again?"

At this time, a guard brought Cai Kun freshly brewed tea.

Cai Kun took the teacup, the lid and the teacup rattled, obviously indicating that Cai Kun was shaking all over.

He took a sip of the tea vigorously, which was a little shocking.

After taking a few more slow breaths, he finally said to Xu Zun tremblingly: "Xu Zun, Daxuan... the sky has changed!"

"what!!!?"

Xu Zun turned pale with shock, and Zhao Yu was so frightened that he almost knelt on the ground.

"What?" Xu Zun stood up and asked, "The sky has changed... What happened...?"

"Yesterday..." Cai Kun said in horror, "After the chaos was put down, the Empress Dowager called the ministers into the palace.

"Just above the main hall," Cai Kun said, putting down his teacup, pressing his temple vigorously, "The Empress Dowager dethroned the current emperor!

"After a lapse of ten years, the Empress Dowager returned to the Golden Luan Palace and climbed to the top of my Great Xuan!!!"
