The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 256 Killing Heart

After Zhao Pu finished speaking, Xue Juzheng felt that there was something wrong with his face.

At this moment, Zhao Kuangyin looked at Liu Wei and said, "Does Liu Aiqing have any good words?"

Liu Wei smiled slightly: "My lord, my subordinates feel that Li Yu is going to be released, but not now. In Weichen's opinion, at least he will have to wait until the Shangyuan Festival to release him."

Hearing Liu Wei's words, Zhao Pu, Xue Juzheng and the others were a little puzzled. Naturally, they wanted to put it back, so why divide the time?

"Why did you wait until the Shangyuan Festival to let him go back?"

"Because letting him go back at that time is in my best interest, Da Song."

"favorable?"

Liu Wei nodded: "Weichen can only say so much for the time being, what's going on, I'm afraid we won't know until after the Lantern Festival."

Seeing Liu Wei is so mysterious, everyone felt uncomfortable, but Zhao Kuangyin didn't want Li Yu to go back for the time being, so he nodded: "Okay, let's do as Liu Aiqing said, and make a conclusion after the Shangyuan Festival."

After leaving the palace, Zhao Pu and Liu Wei took the same carriage.

As for Liu Wei expressing his gratitude to him, Zhao Pu knew well, so he didn't have any taboos.

After the two got into the carriage, Zhao Pu asked puzzledly: "Liu Concubine, why did you say that you would wait until the Shangyuan Festival to let Li Yu go back?"

Liu Wei smiled: "Because the Holy One didn't want to let Li Yu go back so early."

Zhao Pu shook his head: "Liu's son-in-law has also learned badly. He still plays these tricks in front of me. The Holy Majesty doesn't want Li Yu to go back, but if Li Yu doesn't go back, it will be bad for my Song Dynasty, and the Holy Majesty will still let him go back."

Speaking of this, Zhao Pu seemed to have thought of something, and quickly asked: "Do you think that after the Shangyuan Festival, Shi Shouxin can solve the attacks of the Northern Han and Liao people, and then our Great Song Dynasty can fight the Southern Tang Dynasty?"

Liu Wei smiled: "The prime minister is only half right."

Zhao Pu frowned slightly, then suddenly understood, and said, "That's right, that's right, Prince Concubine Liu's long-term thinking is that he should wait for the Shangyuan Festival before letting Li Yu go back."

Both of them are smart people. When Liu Wei said this, Zhao Pu understood.

At dusk, the wind in Bianjing became colder.

Liu Wei was sitting idle in the study, and Liu Quan hurried over.

"Young master, you asked the old slave to investigate the matter clearly for you. The person who said that he was poisoned after eating Guan girl's steamed stuffed bun was called Jin Fei. , Now he actually opened an inn in Bianjing City."

"Jin Fei?" Liu Wei repeated the name several times, then nodded, and ordered: "You don't have to worry about other things, you can help find where Guan Qingyi is going."

Liu Quan took the order, and after Liu Quan left, Liu Wei called Daniu and Hua Qiongxian.

When the two came to the study, Liu Wei said to them: "I need you to go out with me tonight, and you may kill someone."

"Kill?" Daniel was stunned for a moment.

"What's so difficult about it, I, Hua Qiongxian, have killed quite a few people." Hua Qiongxian didn't care, he was originally a member of the Witch Sect, and killing people was basically commonplace.

When Daniel saw that a woman could do this, he immediately became proud: "Whoever the Lord tells you to kill, Daniel will kill whoever you want."

Liu Wei nodded: "Okay!"

When the dusk faded, the sky dimmed, and the whole Bianjing city suddenly became quiet, and those shops were out of business, so they closed their doors early.

Jin Fei is a fat man, very fat and fat. At this moment, he is calculating today's income. The two clerks are rubbing their hands while sweeping the floor and mopping the table. When Jin Fei is doing the calculation, he will look at the two clerks from time to time. , and told and shouted: "Be quick, all this grinding, when can I finish?"

Whenever he reprimands his buddy like this, he feels a little proud in his heart. Half a year ago, he was also like his buddy, whether it was hot or cold, he had to work hard to survive, but now he just needs to sit here and settle the score. .

Although the two waiters were resentful in their hearts, they didn't dare to say much. After sweeping the floor and the table clean, they rushed to report to Jin Fei. Jin Fei glanced at it and pointed to the table leg not far away: "There is still vegetable juice that hasn't been wiped clean, you will be deducted half a day's wages, and there is still leftovers in the kitchen, go and eat."

The two guys looked at each other, wanting to explode, but in the end they could only endure it.

Seeing the expressions of the two guys who dared not speak out, Jin Fei felt even more proud. After finishing the accounts, he put them under his arm and walked towards the backyard.

But as soon as he entered his bedroom, he was suddenly startled.

"You... who are you? You are so bold that you dare to break into a private house?" Jin Fei's fat body was trembling at this moment, he was a little angry and a little scared.

There are three people in his bedroom, three people who came with bad intentions.

Liu Wei was sitting in Jin Fei's bedroom drinking tea. Seeing Jin Fei coming, he smiled coldly: "I'm here to settle accounts. A few months ago, did you frame Miss Guan Qingyi?"

As soon as someone mentioned Guan Qingyi, Jin Fei suddenly understood the identity of the person in front of him. He was a little scared and turned around to run away, but just as he turned around, Daniel stepped out, picked up his fat body and took him He brought it to Liu Wei.

Jin Fei is very fat, and he usually finds it difficult to walk by himself, but he didn't expect this big man to be able to lift himself up easily.

"I haven't spoken clearly yet, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Jin Fei suddenly knelt down to Liu Wei: "Forgive me Concubine Liu, Xiaomin didn't frame Miss Guan because her buns were really poisonous, otherwise how could the little one be poisoned?"

Liu Wei frowned slightly, he didn't want to waste time with this fat man here.

"I'm giving you two choices. One is to tell the truth, and the officer may spare your life. Second, insist on not telling, and the officer will let you suffer all kinds of torture before killing you. Choose."

This is a difficult choice, but no matter who knows how to choose.

Jin Fei raised his head slightly, couldn't help but shuddered, and then said: "Master Liu, please forgive me, in fact... In fact, the younger one was also instructed by others to frame Miss Guan."

Liu Wei nodded: "Who ordered you?"

"Murong Bo from Xuefu Academy, a few months ago, Murong Bo suddenly found the younger one, and said that if I would pretend to be poisoned and frame Guan Qingyi, he would give the younger one a hundred guan, because Murong Bo had someone in Dali Temple, so the manager After the girl was framed by the little one, she could only use up her family property and the little one's selfishness, and the villain got the money, so he opened an inn here."

After Jin Fei finished speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed again and again, begging for mercy.

Liu Wei continued to say coldly: "Do you know where Guan Qingyi went?"

Jin Fei shook his head: "After Guan Qingyi exhausted all his family property, he left the capital city. I don't know exactly where he went."

After Jin Fei said these words, Liu Wei waved his hand, and just as he was waving his hand, Hua Qiongxian had already made a move, killing Jin Fei with one blow.

"This kind of villain deserves his death." After killing Jin Fei, Hua Qiongxian said coldly.

Liu Wei nodded: "There is really no need for a person like him to live in this world, but Murong Bo is behind the scenes, and he must have dealt with Guan Qingyi because I once helped Guan Qingyi, and he has nothing to do with me. , so I framed Guan Qingyi when I was leaving Beijing, since he dared to bully the weak like this, and Guan Qingyi suffered because of this official, then this official will never forgive him."

"In that case, let's rush into the academy and kill Murong Bo." From Hua Qiongxian's point of view, there is nothing in this world that cannot be solved by fighting and killing.

Liu Wei shook his head slightly: "Murong Bo still has some influence in the capital, so killing him like this will easily attract the attention of the court. Since he knows to frame someone, why can't we frame him?"

Speaking of this, Liu Wei waved to Daniel: "Carry the corpse, let's go to the academy."
-
At the end of the new year, it can be said that it is the busiest time for Xuefu Academy.

Although the academy was closed because of Murong Bo's opening of a brothel, but because of respecting teachers in this era, many scholars will still come here to visit Murong Bo at the end of the year.

Although they won't stay for too long, they won't even say anything to Murong Bo.

They may just come here to reminisce about the years when they studied here, and then visit the former residence with a group of friends.

A few scholars were walking in front, while those behind were discussing poetry, or what questions might be asked in the next imperial examination.

But at this moment, a scholar in front suddenly screamed.

Shouting with fear, the few scholars behind saw this and hurried forward: "What's going on?"

"Corpse... Corpse..." A scholar pointed to the pile of snow in the corner. The snow had melted at this time, and the upper body of a corpse was exposed, while the lower body was still buried in the snow.

When the other scholars saw the corpse, they also panicked.

"Killed...killed..."

"Report the case, report the case quickly!"

The people from Kaifeng Mansion soon came, and a group of yamen servants controlled the people from Xuefu Academy, Murong Bo was shocked, how could there be a dead body in his Xuefu Academy?
At the beginning, he kept defending, but when he saw that the corpse was Jin Fei, he was stunned for a moment, and then he regretted deeply. He regretted not being able to kill Jin himself after framing Guan Qingyi. fly.

Killing must be eradicated.

Shen Tan was in charge of the trial. After examining the corpse, he raised his eyebrows. The deceased was killed by a single stabbing knife. Anyone who can kill so quickly must be a master.

But Murong Bo obviously didn't meet this point.

However, Shen Tan had learned some investigative techniques from Liu Wei, so when he felt something suspicious, he ordered someone to investigate the identity of the deceased and the relationship between the deceased and Murong Bo.
