A Clash of Gods - Chapter 735

[Chapter 731 Infernal Affairs]

Tie Zheng’s eyes were like knives, and he said: “Xiaguan interrogated the three criminals, although they did not explain anything, but the following officials have many years of experience in handling cases, the other two criminals may really just follow Tian Heng, who really know some insiders should Only Tian Heng.”

“It should be like this.” Qi Ning nodded slightly: “It was because some people were worried that Tian Heng would say something that shouldn’t be said, so he was poisoned in prison. If the other two knew about it, Quite a few, it is not just Tian Heng who was poisoned this time, the other two will definitely be poisoned to death.”

“So the two did not die, but it proves that they really don’t know much.” Tie Zheng said: “At least they What you know won’t threaten the real murderer behind the scenes.”

Qi Ning slowly got up, put his hands on his back, thoughtful, and said after a moment: “Master Tie, the other party’s scheming is so deep, it’s terrifying. Have you ever thought about it, Tian? Heng is already doomed to die in prison before he performs his mission?”

“Master Hou is saying…the other party involved the capital of the capital, and he thought of Song Santai as a chess piece?” After all, Tie Zheng was quick-witted. Qi Ning said a little bit, and he understood what Qi Ning meant.

Qi Ning said: “That letter to the Kyoto Prefecture is really a powerful move.” After glancing at Tian Heng’s body, he said, “The letter first made the people of the Kyoto Prefecture happen to meet the scene of the murder. The guilt of the Black Scale Battalion was confirmed. In order to confirm the guilt of the Black Scale Battalion, they had to let the three murderers fall into the hands of the Kyoto Prefecture, but they were worried that Tian Heng would reveal a confession against them, so from the beginning of the plan, They are bound to kill people.”

Tie Zheng sighed: “Actually, the lower officials also expected this possibility, so they are closely guarding the three murderers.”

“They let the Kyoto prefecture intervene in this matter, just to assume that the Kyoto prefecture will be certain. These three people will be imprisoned in the felon prison.” Qi Ning’s eyes were bright and his thinking was quick: “None of us would have thought in advance that their purpose was to put the three murderers in the

felon

prison.”

, said on the side: “Locked up in the capital prison, in the middle of their arms, they can just kill people in the prison.”

“In their eyes, Song Santai is much more reliable than Tian Heng.” Qi Ning sighed, “Song Santai did not live up to their expectations, and helped them kill and kill, and even killed himself.”

Although Tie Zheng’s expression Stern and calm, but deep in his sharp eyes,

visibly angry.

Of course it was a big blow to him.

One of the jailers he had always trusted in Youjia turned out to be an undercover spy in Kyoto Prefecture. How could he not be annoyed? The most terrifying thing was that besides Song Santai, how many people were still in ambush beside him to stage infernal affairs.

“Being able to send people to infiltrate the Black Scale Battalion while recruiting troops, and infiltrate spies in the capital’s yamen.” Qi Ning sighed softly, “Lord Tie, it seems that the person hiding behind the scenes is really an expert. His skills are also really good.”

Tie Zheng sighed: “Xiaguan now only needs to worry that it is not easy to clear the grievances of the Black Scale Camp. Tian Heng died in prison, and he cannot interrogate the real murderer from his mouth, but Everyone knows that these people are from the Black Scale Battalion, and who can believe that they are just part of the conspiracy.”

Qi Ning felt a little uncomfortable in this dark cell, he fanned the tip of his nose with his hand, and walked out. After leaving the cell, a few others followed them out the door. Tie Zheng returned his hand and closed the stone prison. Only then did Qi Ning say, “Tian Heng’s clue is broken, and the remaining clue can only be counted on the Meng residence. The chief executive…!” He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “I am only worried that the chief executive of Meng’s residence will not be able to come to the capital smoothly.”

Tie Zheng also realized something. If you can kill him by poisoning him in the great prison of Kyoto, then the chief director of Meng’s house is probably in danger right now.

Tie Zheng couldn’t help but quicken his pace. The three of them left the boss and returned to the side hall. Not long after they took their seats, they heard footsteps in a hurry, and soon saw a yacha appearing outside the door, cupping their hands: “Sir!”

Tie Zheng Immediately got up and said, “Come in and answer.”

The yacha entered the house and bowed before saying: “Sir, I quickly rushed to Meng’s house and wanted to ask the chief of Meng’s house to come and answer, but… Meng The people in the mansion said that there was no trace of the chief manager last night, and until now, they have not seen him return to the mansion. The subordinates were worried that the master was in a hurry, so they sent someone to stay there, just wait for the chief manager to return, and bring him here immediately. ”

Tie Zheng and Qi Ning looked at each other, knowing that.

Tie Zheng waved his hand, and after the yacha backed down, Tie Zheng sighed: “Master Hou expected things like a god, the chief executive of Meng House disappeared out of thin air, either he left the capital to escape, or he was silenced, I’m afraid he will find him again. It

‘s not him anymore.”

“It seems that the real murderer behind the scenes is indeed a master of scheming.” Qi Ning said: “Every step he took was good, the whole plan was flawless, and there was no evidence against him. Duan Canghai frowned and said,

”

Master Hou, Lord Tie, although you already know that this was deliberately arranged by someone, but if we can’t produce evidence, no one will believe our words. Tian Heng died in the prison. On the contrary, Lord Haotie will be implicated by this matter.” The

case has not yet been finalized, nor has it been sentenced by the Ministry of Punishment. One of the criminals was poisoned to death in a large prison. This is of course the dereliction of duty of the Kyoto Prefecture. As the governor of Kyoto Prefecture, Tie Zheng is naturally To blame.

Tie Zheng waved his hand and said, “Since it was the fault of the Kyoto government, Xiaguan should take it upon himself, and he will immediately plead guilty to the Sage.” He frowned slightly, leaned forward, and said, “Master Hou, this murder, Mingli It is indeed going towards the Black Scale Battalion, to take the blame of the soldiers of the Black Scale Battalion for killing innocents indiscriminately, but to achieve this goal, is the other party too deliberate?”

“Is it just for the Black Scale Battalion, let’s make a fuss

I don’t know.” Qi Ning said: “At least in this way, Lord Tie and I are both involved.”

Tie Zheng nodded slightly and said, “Perhaps the other party wanted to kill two birds with one stone. Since the Black Scale Camp was convicted, he deliberately stayed in Kyoto. If you kill people in the big prison, let the lower officials take the blame.”

Qi Ning suspected King Huainan and Sima Lan at first, but thought that the mastermind behind this murder should be one of these two people.

But he didn’t have any evidence on hand to prove that it was the two of them.

He knew very well in his heart that even if all this was not planned by the two of them, if such an opportunity arises, the two of them would never miss the opportunity to suppress the Black Scale Battalion.

Judging from the causal relationship, if this murder was committed by these two people, then they would naturally have to suppress the Black Scale Camp. Such causal logic would not be wrong, but on the other hand, it must not be because they suppressed the Black Scale Camp. Just take it over and judge that the murder must be theirs.

Qi Ning knew this kind of thing, and he must not take it lightly, let alone be preconceived.

Although the King of Huainan and Sima Lan were the two biggest forces in the court, and they were indeed a thorn in the side of the Black Scale Battalion, they were by no means the only two forces that were hostile to the Black Scale Battalion. Qi Ning even thought of it in his mind. It would not be someone who set a trap and planned this murder, the purpose of which was to make the Jinyi Qi family target these two forces.

He knew that the powers of the DPRK and China were intertwined, and he had to be careful in everything. He must not be emotional, let alone make judgments on something based on his own likes and dislikes. Because of the traps of ulterior motives, until there is no conclusive evidence, although I can doubt the King of Huainan and Sima Lan, I can never be sure that it is these two people.

Seeing that Qi Ning was silent, Tie Zheng didn’t say a word for a while.

After a while, Qi Ning finally said: “Master Tie, your guess is reasonable, maybe someone set a trap to let us in, and killed two birds with one stone, coming towards you and me. Since we know each other’s intentions, whether it is right or not Wrong, we can’t let the other party succeed.”

Tie Zheng didn’t understand for a while, and Qi Ning had already said: “Tian Heng was killed in prison, you can ask the saint to apologize, but this matter should not be publicized, it is best not to spread the word to the capital. Outside.”

Tie Zheng frowned and said, “Someone was murdered in prison, this matter can’t always be concealed, and the lower official never thought of concealing it, at least he should report it to the Ministry of Punishment.”

“I know what you mean.” Qi Ning Zheng said: “But now is not the time, Mr. Tie, this case can’t be stopped here, I always suspect that it is not simple, I just worry that once this matter is publicized, someone in the DPRK will take advantage of the problem and take you out of the capital. Get it out.”

Tie Zheng said with a smile: “Master Hou, there are countless people who have offended Xiaguan, but I have never been afraid of anyone. It’s good to be faithful to your duties and be worthy of your conscience. Since you have made a mistake, if the court really wants to transfer Xiaguan out of the capital. , the lower official has nothing to say.”

“But Master Tie should understand that once you are transferred away, it is impossible to find out the truth of this case.” Qi Ning said solemnly: “Only if you stay in the Kyoto House, this case will be solved. It may come to light.” With a faint smile, he said, “People die in your hands, if you can’t find out the real murderer behind the scenes, I’m afraid you won’t be able to let go.

”

com Tie Zheng was thoughtful.

“The emperor is alone, this matter is not a concealment. It is good to go or stay, and obey the emperor’s will.” Qi Ning said slowly, he was very clear in his heart, if Longtai knew about this, he would not have transferred Tie Zheng because of this. Go, “As for how to explain Tian Heng’s death in prison, I will handle it.”

“Master Hou?” Tie Zheng was startled.

Qi Ning smiled and said, “Master Tie, don’t forget, this marquis is the commander of the Black Scale Battalion. If the soldiers of the Black Scale Battalion commit a serious crime, this marquis has the right to punish him.” He got up and said, “But there is one more thing. Please help Mr. Tie.”

Tie Zheng also got up and cupped his hands: “Master Hou, please order!”

“Three murderers, one died, and two are in prison.” Qi Ning said: “You will take that now. The two murderers have been handed over to me, the emperor has a will, and because of this matter, the people can’t be pointed at the black scale camp, and the prince must obey the order.”
