The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1699 Something Happened to the Palace
"What, the palace was assassinated by an assassin, dare to ask how many people were injured, didn't the guards of the palace not notice, and let the thief succeed?"

Chu Zhaofu was also quite depressed. Some people entered the palace and even killed people. Could it be that the guards in the palace are not good enough? You must know that as a prince, there are many guards in the palace. Since there are not many guards in the palace Little, don't you notice it at all?
Chu Zhaofu still doesn't believe it. If this is the case, the palace is no different from ordinary people. What's the majesty of the palace? What's the use of giving you those guards? It's a shame.

"Well, to tell you the truth, my son's birthday was a few days ago, and my king ordered the mansion to be celebrated in the mansion. They may have relaxed their vigilance that night, so they said."

Zhao Lin's explanation is also reasonable, his son's birthday, this celebration is also appropriate, to celebrate all the people in the palace, this is also a gift, so Zhao Lin may have rewarded the servants and guards with some things, such as wine , Zhao Lin explained it this way, and Chu Zhaofu couldn't say anything.

"Then are all the people who died, so I can ask the situation clearly, and then send someone to the palace to have a look?" Chu Zhaofu couldn't figure out what Zhao Lin was going to do. How many people died in the palace? Take care of it yourself, why is he going to come to me, but it is impossible for him to say that.

"A dozen bodyguards, and my housekeeper also died. This matter is too great, so Lord Chu must catch the murderer and not let the murderer go unpunished."

Chu Zhaofu took a deep breath, a dozen guards, who is so big, and a dozen lives, what happened recently, if this matter can't be resolved, I have to alarm the court, otherwise I will die I can't afford it. Hundreds of soldiers have died. This matter is too big, and I can't hide it. He has already reported to the court. Now the court has not issued an imperial edict. This is what happened in the palace. 50 A man of many years, who is about to retire and return to his hometown, unexpectedly encountered such a thing, which made Chu Zhaofu feel so painful.

"Okay, then I won't keep my lord, please take a step ahead, my lord will go there in person, do you think this will work?" Chu Zhaofu still gave Zhao Lin the respect he deserved, and Zhao Lin was also very polite. After saying a few words to Chu Zhaofu, he left quickly.

"My lord, if something like this happened in our palace, we can solve it by ourselves. Why bother him?" The person who followed Zhao Lin was a person who followed Zhao Lin since childhood, and this person also had the same surname as Zhao Lin. , is an orphan, and is about 16 years old now.

However, although he is only 16 years old, his training for so many years is not inferior to any killer in the world, so he was able to be Zhao Lin's bodyguard at such a young age. Follow Zhao Lin, be extremely loyal to Zhao Lin, this is the most important thing.

Hearing him ask: "Huzi, you don't understand. Although I am a prince, we also have to abide by the laws of the Song Dynasty, don't we? Of course, people from the government should investigate if someone is killed in this mansion, otherwise it will be very serious." It is easy to attract people's criticism, and this king just wants Chu Zhaofu to give me an explanation."

"But if this is the case, what is the majesty of our palace?" Zhao Hu was familiar with Zhao Lin, and he dared to say anything, and it was for Zhao Lin's good.

"Okay, you don't have to worry about it. It's fine. Our palace was broken into. This in itself means that the security of Jinling City is not good. It's his responsibility as the prefect. If the king doesn't blame him, it's already a big deal." Grace, he should try his best to investigate the case, let's go, we have other things, by the way, we must take good care of the dead guards' homes after we go back."

It is rare that Zhao Lin can think of paying compensation to those who died at this time. It seems that he is not a bad person. Zhao Hu didn't say anything about other people, and they left. There are many people behind the prince. Pedestrians all began to evade and give way.

"My lord, how could someone enter this palace and kill so many guards? It's unlikely. Do you believe what the lord said just now?" After Zhao Lin left, Jinling's headhunter asked Chu Zhaofu cautiously. He also heard Zhao Lin's words. What Lin said, of course, as long as it is a normal person, it will not believe it at all.

"How can I believe what he said? Something must have happened to their palace, but we have to go and see anyway. After all, the prince has come to our place to report the crime. Let's wait for the corpse to wait in the Yamen."

Chu Zhaofu has been an official for so many years, he naturally understands some of the twists and turns, but what can he do, he can only follow the normal procedure.

It didn't take long for Chu Zhaofu to bring back the body of the second man in the palace, and Wu Zuo also came. He had already completed his inspection and the cause of death was fully clarified. At this time, Wu Zuo came to Chu Zhaofu's side and bowed. Body salute:
"See your lord!"

"Okay, these are all avoided. Is the cause of death clear? Tell me quickly." Chu Zhaofu waved his hand impatiently, telling him to speak quickly.

"It's my lord. The cause of death is one-shot and the cuts are all frontal. The distance is very close. These people didn't have any struggles before, and the blood from the cuts is relatively small, which means that they didn't struggle when they died, and the blood didn't circulate. So fast, it should be the hands of an acquaintance, otherwise, whoever can sneakily will be easily killed by a dozen guards."

As expected, his professional skills were good, and he told the cause of death of these people very accurately. After hearing this, Chu Zhaofu frowned.

"Can you be sure that these people died peacefully?" Chu Zhaofu asked again.

"My lord, I'm sure, if a person dies after a fierce struggle, the blood should gush out, because after the fierce struggle, the blood circulation of the person will speed up, so the blood will come out along the knife edge here, and this There is only a little blood in the wounds of more than a dozen corpses, and there is no trace of wiping, so the villain can be sure that they died peacefully, and it is a little unbelievable, just look at their protruding eyes."

Not only did Wu Zuo explain, but the explanation was detailed and well-founded, so that Chu Zhaofu also understood, and let Wu Zuo and others go out.

"Could it be that someone from the palace did it? If that's the case, then what is his purpose? Well, anyway, I can't be idle recently." Chu Zhaofu is really having a headache now, and this incident happened one after another. Bo's, he also has more than enough heart but not enough energy, the court has not responded to him about the killing of the soldiers before, and now it comes out about the killing of the guards of the palace, what is going on.
