Chi Hou was a little confused, but soon his eyes widened because he discovered that on the other side of the street, there were eight figures running quickly towards Fang Zhengzheng and others.
"Envoys from the Southern Territory?!" Chi Hou quickly identified the identities of these people. Just as he was about to take action, he saw another figure behind the eight envoys from the Southern Territory.
In terms of speed...
The speed of this figure is not even slower than that of himself and Xing Yuanguo.
However, the red court uniform is extremely eye-catching, making it impossible for people to ignore his identity. He is the chief minister of the court, Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping.
"What's going on?" Chi Hou looked at the eager and fast Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping, and it was impossible to say that he was not surprised at all.
Although he is not an official in Yanjing City, he is very familiar with the current chief minister. When did the left prime minister Yu Yiping become so anxious
However, this was not over yet. As soon as the figure of Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping was revealed, two more figures appeared in his sight.
The left minister of the Ministry of punishment, the middle minister of the Ministry of punishment.
In addition, there were policemen in black who were surrounding them from all over, as well as Duan Wang Lin Xinjue who was riding a horse and holding a long sword, and the city guards who were running quickly holding bright long spears.
This is definitely an exaggerated scene.
You know, this is Yanjing City.
Chi Hou was extremely confused and surprised. He knew that Yanjing City was not peaceful tonight, but he did not expect that the "unrest" would reach this level.
Subconsciously, Chi Hou looked at Xing Yuanguo beside him.
Xing Yuanguo's face was still calm. He just watched quietly, looking at the speeding figures, like a real bystander.
"Brother Yuan Guo, should we..." Chi Hou still didn't understand what was happening in front of him, so he naturally tried to ask.
"No, let's just watch here." Xing Yuanguo shook his head, and then found a place to stop about two hundred meters away from Fang Zhengzheng and others.
"Here?" Chi Hou looked at a big tree in front of him and wanted to say something more, but in the end he nodded: "Okay, everything will be subject to the arrangements of Brother Yuan Guo."
At this time, the eight Southern Territory envoys finally bypassed Fang Zhengyi and others, and disappeared into a dark alley.
Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping and Zuo Zhong, the two ministers, watched this scene and naturally became more and more anxious. Just when they were about to chase into the alley, they finally found Fang Zhengzheng, Yan Xiu and Ping Yang standing in the middle of the street. .
Fang Zhengzheng also seemed to see Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping at this time. A faint light flashed from his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised with a faint smile.
"Xiang Yu is in such a hurry... Where are you going?" Fang Zhengzheng did not wait for Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping to speak, but took the lead in waving his hand and saying hello.
"Get out of the way, I have official duties!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping naturally had no intention of talking nonsense with Fang Zhengzheng, and shouted directly.
"Official business? Are you arresting the prisoners who escaped from the prison of the Ministry of Justice just now?" Fang Zhengzheng didn't mind Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping's attitude, but pointed to the alley beside him and continued.
"So what?" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping naturally had no intention of stopping.
When the two ministers on the left and countless black-clothed detectives saw Fang Zhengzheng, their hearts moved slightly, and they raised their shining knives.
It seems possible to take action at any time.
"Step aside!"
"Do you know that you are guilty of obstructing the law enforcement of the Criminal Department?"
The two black-clothed detectives who were closely following the two servants on the left spoke quickly.
"Go away, what do you call me in front of this princess?" Pingyang spoke at this time, his little face slightly raised, with a high and domineering look.
"..." When Pingyang shouted, the two black-clothed detectives immediately retracted their heads and did not dare to speak again. Moreover, they deliberately hid their faces behind the two assistants on the left.
It is clear…
This is because he is afraid of Pingyang's private revenge.
"Fang Zhengyi, the truth is arresting criminals today. If you insist on stopping the truth, don't blame me for being ruthless!" The light in the hands of Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping flashed. Of course he knew Pingyang's tyranny, but now he is really There is no way to take this into account anymore.
"Did Yu Xiang make a mistake? My name is Fang Zhengzheng." Fang Zhengzheng corrected him.
"I don't care whether you are called Fang Zhengzheng or Fang Zhengzheng, get out of the way now!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping's face was slightly cold. He knew very well who did all this today.
Because of this, he also knew the purpose of Fang Zhengzheng appearing here.
"Don't worry, Mr. Yu. We are just arresting a few criminals who came out of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. I can guarantee with my head that I will satisfy Mr. Yu today. If the Ministry of Punishment is hindered from handling the case because of me, I am willing to shoulder the responsibility." All the blame!" Fang Zhengzheng smiled lightly and replied.
"What do you mean?" Zuo Xiangyu was stunned, not quite understanding the meaning of Fang Zhengzheng's words.
Behind Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping, the two ministers from Zuo Zhong and countless police officers in black were also a little confused. Even Duan Wang Lin Xinjue, who arrived behind Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping and others, was slightly stunned.
Duan Wang Lin Xinjue was not too surprised when Fang Zhengzheng appeared here.
This is an obvious delaying tactic.
However, taking the responsibility for the delaying tactics really made him confused. What was going on
"What I mean is...since I happened to appear here, I can't just watch the criminal escape." Fang Zhengzheng replied calmly.
"Can't you just watch the criminal escape?" Zuo Xiangyu Yiping narrowed his eyes and stared at Fang Zhengzheng closely, his expression extremely gloomy.
These criminals were simply someone Fang Zhengzheng found to impersonate him.
Now you're saying you won't let them escape
It’s so stupid to take it for what it is!
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping definitely doesn't believe it. How could such a good thing happen? This is completely different from calling a thief to catch a thief.
Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping didn't believe it, and naturally neither did the two ministers in Zuo Zhong.
Even Duan Wang Lin Xinjue looked surprised after hearing Fang Zhengzheng's words.
However, Fang Zhengzheng had no intention of explaining anymore. He just slowly turned around to the alley, and then whistled in the direction of the alley.
"ah!"
"I will never go to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment again until I die!"
"Brothers, after eighteen years we are a good man again!"
As Fang Zhengzheng's whistle sounded, several shouts quickly came from the alley, and then, several figures walked out of the alley.
They were dozens of guardsmen wearing bright gold armor.
The leader was none other than the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army, Bai Qi.
And in the hands of those imperial guards, there were still eight corpses dragging, corpses wearing heavy armor. Bright red blood flowed from the corpses, dyeing the entrance of the alley red.
"You... you killed them?" Zuo Xiangyu Yiping's footsteps finally stopped at this time, and his eyes that had been narrowed widened in an instant.
"How is it possible? Yu Xiang heard it. They committed suicide. Our people were only responsible for surrounding them. I didn't expect them to be so strong!" Bai Qi, the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army, waved his hand after hearing this.
"Well, I can prove what Deputy Capital Commander Bai said!" Fang Zhengzheng nodded.
"This princess can also prove it!" Pingyang also nodded.
"Yes, these people obviously committed suicide." Yan Xiu also said at this time.
"Suicide?" Of course Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping is willing to believe that if he is a real dead soldier, there will be absolutely no doubt. However, these people are obviously pretending.
How could one commit suicide
While thinking this, Bai Qi also slowly leaned down and touched the faces of the Southern Territory envoys with his palms. Then, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Princess, these people seem to have human skin masks on their faces. If my guess is correct, these Southern Territory envoys are probably fake." Bai Qi said with certainty.
"Fake? Why don't you take off their human skin masks and show me the princess." Pingyang also showed a surprised expression when he heard this.
"You want to unmask the human skin? You have to see the real face... No!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping was about to nod, but soon, his body trembled as if struck by lightning.
At this moment, he finally understood.
But…
It's too late.
Because Bai Qi's hands were very fast, and the hands of the forest guards who followed Bai Qi were also very fast, the human skin masks on the faces of the eight Southern Territory envoys were quickly removed.
And as the human skin mask was unveiled, the air in the entire street also fell into a kind of solidification for an instant.
Everyone's eyes subconsciously looked at the revealed true faces, and when they truly saw the true faces of those people, they all felt a chill rising from the soles of their feet.
Duan Wang Lin Xinjue also noticed the "Southern Territory Envoys" whose true identities were revealed. When his eyes saw those faces, he was also stunned for a moment.
But soon...
And he laughed.
However, he did not laugh for long, because he also felt a chill, a chill like a cold winter.
Things have come to this.
It would be silly to say that no one has guessed the cause and effect of all this.
What a ruthless plan!
Even more ruthless than I imagined!
Originally, Duan Wang Lin Xinjue thought that Fang Zhengzheng's plan was perfect and ruthless enough. However, when he saw the scene in front of him, he understood what it meant to be ruthless and cruel enough.
If all the previous things were added together, even if Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping had made a mess, there was still the possibility of explanation and recovery.
but now…
Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping is truly useless.
There is no chance of a comeback, because Fang Zhengzheng has used facts to establish the case of Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping as irrefutable evidence.
An irrefutable proof that can never be undone.
The eight "envoys from the Southern Territory" who had their human skin masks removed were naturally not the real envoys from the Southern Territory, but three retainers in the residence of Left Prime Minister Yu Yiping.
In addition to the three retainers, there were also five generals from the Ministry of War.
With the "verbal confessions" of these eight people in front of the people of Yanjing City, the witnesses of Duan Wang Lin Xinjue, the city guards and the people, plus the "material evidence" of these corpses.
If Zuo Xiang Yu is flat, how can he still have a chance to turn around
"Hahaha... What a master of tricks!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping laughed, his body shaking with laughter, and tears flashing in his eyes: "Okay, very good, I admire you, I admire you!"
At this moment, he naturally guessed the whole process of the matter. In fact, when Bai Qi, the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army, mentioned the human skin mask, he understood all the plans.
Fang Zhengzheng used eight people to pretend to be the eight fake Southern Territory envoys sent by Zuoxiang.
Then, in front of everyone, these eight people were allowed to drag out all the plans of the left prime minister, and even worse, they introduced Yan Xiu as the target of the assassination.
When Zuo Xiang Yu and others chased these eight people all the way here...
Then he used the golden cicada's escape plan to make the eight people disappear through the alley. Finally, the eight corpses that had been prepared long ago were sent out of the alley.
In this case, the case is a solid case.
Because the eight people who pretended to be envoys from the Southern Territory are dead. Since they are dead people, it is naturally impossible for them to get up and retract their confessions. Even the Holy One cannot be selfish in this case.
The eyes of the two ministers on the left and middle were fixed on the eight corpses whose true identities were revealed. As the ministers of the Ministry of Justice, they naturally knew that when the case had reached this stage, there was no possibility of overturning the case.
"It's over, it's over..." The two waiters on the left and middle looked at each other, and they both saw exactly the same expression in each other's eyes.
When Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping was finished, they also had no chance to turn around.
Because it was they, together with Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping, who brought these eight prisoners out of the Ministry of Punishment Prison. Once this case is confirmed, they will also be unable to escape their guilt.
The countless black-clothed detectives following the two servants in the middle and left also had depressed expressions on their faces. They could not escape being implicated in what happened today.
The whole street fell silent at this moment.
Not far away, under a big tree, Chi Hou's eyes were also fixed on the faces of the eight corpses, with extremely shocked expressions.
"Brother Hong, what do you think?" Xing Yuanguo spoke at this time.
"I... No, I can't tell." Chihou shook his head, avoiding Xing Yuanguo's gaze, and looked at the big tree in front of him.
"You can see that, and with your ability, even if you don't know what happened in front of the Xingbu Yamen, you can still deduce the entire process just from the scene in front of you, can't you?" Xing Yuanguo said calmly.
"Brother Yuan Guo... well, I have to admit that Fang Zhengzheng's plan is perfect, careful in thinking, and ruthless!" Chi Hou finally answered after a moment of silence.
"Shuangyong is at the top of the list, a shocking genius... Sometimes I can't understand, will there be any changes?" Xing Yuanguo raised his head slightly, looked at the bright stars in the sky, and seemed to be talking to himself.
"Change? What change could there be? No matter how careful his thinking is, he is still a useless person after all. Could it be that Brother Yuanguo doesn't even believe in his own virtuous daughter?" Chi Hou listened to Xing Yuanguo's words. As he muttered to himself, his brows furrowed involuntarily.
"Hmm..." Xing Yuanguo nodded, and then turned his gaze outside the city: "Brother Hong, why don't you guess how Yan Qianli will react after learning the news that Yan Xiu has been assassinated?"
"Yan Xiu was assassinated? What do you mean?"
"What Fang Zhengzheng asked the impersonators to say was that the person Yu Xiang sent to assassinate appeared to be Fang Zhengzheng, but in fact it was Yan Xiu."
"Ah?! Is... Fang Zhengzheng crazy? Is he trying to bring chaos to the world?!" (To be continued.)
