Chapter 544: disagreement
Chapter 544 Divergence
Chu Nanzhi has been observing the people in the yard, wanting to observe the changes in their faces.
Everyone looked calm and composed, but there was no trace to be found.
She suddenly turned her eyes to Ji Wanying who had been scolding the assassins all the time, feeling that something was wrong with the little princess today.
The assassination of imperial envoys by the assassins is indeed irritating, but from her eyes, Chu Nanzhi seemed to see a kind of resentment that hates iron but not steel.
Following what she said just now, Chu Nanzhi said with a meaningful smile: "Princess Wanying thinks who might have sent the letter to these people?"
"My cousin asked this question, how would I know."
Ji Wanying's lips curled slightly and said with a calm smile: "Biao sister-in-law won't think that I sent someone to send the message, will she?"
"That's not going to happen."
Chu Nanzhi also looked at her with a smile.
This little princess is indeed not capable, and she can't find any reason to doubt this little princess.
Looking at Concubine Yue, Tang Ru, and Lin Jinqian, Lin Jinqian immediately frowned and said angrily: "Look at what I am doing, I will personally ask the imperial court for an order. I hope that Yuan Xi will marry into the palace as soon as possible, so why would I throw a stone at myself?" feet?"
"Why should the princess be so nervous, I don't mean that."
Chu Nanzhi smiled wryly and shook her head.
After that, he secretly looked at the two emperor uncles who were extremely calm.
I don't know if it will be one of these two.
She still remembers what Lin Tingyan, the uncle of the Sixth Emperor, reminded her when she rushed to Puluo Temple that day, and then Lin Jinhong assassinated herself.
Combined with today's events, it seems that Lin Tingkai, the uncle of the third emperor, wanted to avenge Wu Enrong, and at the same time, he wanted to provoke the relationship between Lin Jinxiao and the Tang family.
It's just that he didn't expect that the young men of the Qi family would make another idea and arrange for people to do something to his fish pond and restaurant.
There were whispers of whispers in the yard. Sang Qi came back from Qinghefang at this time, accompanied by the captain Chen Chuan.
Chu Nanzhi saw that her expression was normal, and the boulder hanging in her heart finally fell down.
Sang Qi walked up to her and reported in a low voice: "Fortunately, the master has already told me that my brother and housekeeper Zhao have sent people to watch carefully these days. As expected, a few suspicious-looking people were arrested today, and they were found. Five catties of arsenic."
As he spoke, he looked at Chen Chuan beside him, and continued: "Master Xiaowei is worried, and personally brought people to **** the group of thieves over."
"Thank you, Captain Chen."
Chu Nanzhi bowed to him gratefully.
"It's all the duty of the general, the princess is welcome."
While Chen Chuan was answering, his thick eyebrows trembled and he couldn't bear to look at Prince Xie of the Baiyu clan more.
This person was too close to the princess, so he had to attract his attention.
Prince Xie came to the Dahe Empire for the first time, why would he think of going outside the city to help the princess out of the siege?
He always felt that these two people were already very familiar, and they didn't look like strangers at all.
As Lin Jinxiao's diehard fan, he couldn't let his boss suffer from being dumb. He walked up to Lin Jinxiao, who had always been sullen, and whispered something to him. Lin Jinxiao silently glanced at Chu Nanzhi, and then signaled to Chen Chuan left first.
Holding on to his crutches, he walked slowly into the hall, and saw that Sang Kun had drawn the portrait of the Taoist confessed by the assassins. He picked up the portrait and looked at it carefully, but he heard Lin Jinhong shouting in his ear: "This man... "
Lin Jinxiao immediately realized something, and stared fiercely at the docile Lin Erlang with cold eyes.
Lin Jinhong covered his mouth in fear, looked at Chu Nanzhi who was striding in, and immediately rushed to her and whispered: "Sister-in-law, the person in the portrait is the Taoist priest who encouraged me to assassinate you last time."
"you sure?"
Chu Nanzhi didn't want to let more people know about this, so she lowered her voice and looked at him.
Lin Jinhong bit his lip tightly, nodded with firm eyes.
"Okay, it's none of your business here, you take your family to Qinghefang to rest for one night, and return to the village early tomorrow."
Chu Nanzhi ordered impatiently with a cold face.
"The younger brother should take his mother and wife with him, and it's better for the younger sister to go back to the village overnight, so as not to cause further trouble to the elder brother and sister-in-law."
Lin Jinhong was frightened at this time, afraid that his brother and sister-in-law would blame him again.
After seeing the portrait, he became even more certain that someone wanted to harm the Luyan Ganglin clan.
It would be a disaster for his mother to stay in the city, and he would never want to be burdened by his mother again.
"I told you to go to Qinghefang, so go to Qinghefang. There is so much nonsense."
Chu Nanzhi felt angry in his heart, and angrily reprimanded him.
Lin Jinhong trembled with fright, and hurriedly pulled the family out of the living room with a humble smile.
Just at this moment, Li Ce and Li Sanmu came in from the outside together, and Li Ce said in a solemn voice: "Return to Your Highness, we have arrested 1,236 members of the disciples of the Qi family, including those who ransacked the house last time." Fifty-six people who restored the family genealogy in the extermination."
Li Sanmu stared at the portrait in his hand, and added: "Thirteen people escaped, and the humble officials have already sent people to hunt them down."
In the Li family compound, Chu Nanzhi heard from Ji Cen'an that Lin Jinxiao sent people to arrest the disciples of the Qi family, Gu Jiu, and never imagined that he would arrest thousands of people in just one day, and he didn't know what he wanted to do.
Although the current case is not clear, but at least the assassin was caught and everyone was given an explanation. There is no need to go to war again.
Thinking of how she vented her anger with him in the yard just now, she felt a little guilty, she didn't consider the issue from his standpoint, and she didn't really treat herself as a citizen of the Dahe Empire. There is some partiality.
After adjusting her mood, she walked up to Lin Jinxiao, intending to comfort him, but before she could open her mouth, she saw the little white face handing over the portrait to Li Ce, and said in a stern voice with no expression on her face, "Interrogate him one by one. If there is anyone who confesses the whereabouts of this person, he will be punished for his merits, otherwise all of them will be executed by the Donghua River outside the city in three days."
"Lin Dalang, what are you doing?"
Chu Nanzhi didn't know that he had ordered the ten families of the Yi Qi family. As a modern person, she hated this kind of crime that implicates the whole family at every turn.
No matter how hateful the Qi family is, even the group of gangsters who helped the Qi family deserve to be killed, but their family members and children are innocent.
"In a few days, it will be the day of your canonization ceremony. How can you commit such a crime?"
Chu Nanzhi reminded a little annoyed.
After all, Mr. Chang and Mr. Nie were both civil servants, and they didn't want him to be so cruel. Just as he was about to dissuade him, Lin Jinxiao stood up resolutely, looked at the court relatives and Xie Jingchen who followed in, and reprimanded him in a cold tone: "That's right. Because the sealing ceremony is imminent, these people will not be forgiven for their crimes."
After saying that, he leaned on crutches and walked to the backyard with heavy steps.
Chang Lao watched the lonely figure leave, and lightly patted Chu Nanzhi on the shoulder: "Leave him alone, Nan Zhi, what you have to do now is to see if you can find out who is behind the scenes .”
For so many years, he has always regarded Lin Jinxiao as his own son. He never gave him any good face when he spoke on weekdays, even for the sake of the overall situation. But until this moment, he gradually became sober and adapted:
My student is not my son after all.
He is a king, a high-ranking king. If he can rule the world one day, he needs to stand up.
At the moment when he was about to become king, such evil things happened in Luyan Port, not to mention Lin Jinxiao who was holding the sword of the emperor, even His Majesty himself would not allow anyone to dare to behave like this.
In order to stabilize the situation in the eastern and southern Xinjiang, these more than a thousand people can only become sacrifices this time.
