The arrogant blessing of the fourth master

Chapter 138
"Oh, what a crime! You rough people, you are so rude to kill people! Come on, burn it, burn the whole yard, it's troublesome, there is still one vote tonight, I will give it after I finish it Your remaining silver."

The man smiled and said, "Thank you, Eunuch Fu. My subordinates have already gone to work, and it must be done by now."

Fu Ankang nodded and left with his hands behind his back, got into a carriage outside the courtyard and drove away.

After a while, the courtyard was full of flames, and someone shouted: "It's on fire, come quickly! Put out the fire!" There was chaos in Fangqing Lane. People were carrying water, and the sound of wooden barrels clashing, but the fire was getting stronger and stronger. big.

In the light of the fire, the crying of a baby girl could be heard in the courtyard... The snow fell and grew bigger...

When Li Yu arrived, Liu's yard was already in ruins.

He called a neighbor of Liu's family to ask about the situation: "Hey, why did this house catch fire? What's going on?"

"Oh, it's a crime. We don't know why it caught fire. Mrs. Liu, her daughter-in-law, and a little girl were all burned to death. Oh, what a pity. It's a crime!"

The neighbor shook his head and went back to his yard.

Li Yu frowned, it was still a step late, this fire is strange.

Xiao Anzi behind him said: "Eunuch Li, the imperial hospital has approved the old imperial doctor surnamed Wang to return to his hometown. He was supposed to leave Beijing tomorrow. This morning, Fu Ankang went to find the old imperial doctor and stayed for a while. Sui's gone, it's snowing heavily at the moment, he suddenly took his family and left Beijing overnight. Such urgency must be tricky."

"Has someone been sent to watch?"

"I have been watching them all the time. They left suddenly, and the person we watched was caught off guard, so as not to startle the snake, so we let him out of the city, and now we quickly dispatched people to catch up."

Li Yu squinted his eyes and nodded.With the back of his hand behind his back, he said: "Very well, let's get him back to the city first. After the master goes to court tomorrow, he will definitely have his hands free to intervene in this matter. It's time to bring him over for questioning."

Xiao Anzi nodded.

At this time, a fast horse came suddenly, and the person who came down was the head of the palace guards sent by Xiao Anzi to watch over the old doctor.

"Eunuch Li, Eunuch An, it's not good. The younger ones chased old doctor Wang to the outside of the city. Old doctor Wang, his wife and a concubine were all killed. The people we followed only saw a wave of masks. People, they got off their horses and killed people. They came prepared. They took some property and pretended to be a robbery, but they were clearly aimed at people. Then they rode fast horses and left. The speed was so fast that People are speechless, the following guards are defenseless, weak and weak, it is not easy to expose, so we can only let them leave."

"What? He's dead!" Li Wei frowned and squinted his eyes in surprise, this move was too fast!Now that the two important insiders have been silenced, the clues are broken, what should I do?

"What should Eunuch Li do now?" Xiao Anzi also lost his mind.

"Let's go, look outside the city, guard the corpse until dawn, and see if there is anything else found after dawn."

"Whoo."

Several people got on the horses and headed out of the city, leaving messy footprints on the snow with the horses' hooves.

~~
