At the decree of the Empress Dowager Luo Shi's mother, everyone in the palace behaved like all beings, some were angry, some were happy, some had nothing to do with themselves, and some were just standing aside and watching.
The Empress Dowager Liu came to the door of Fengyi Hall and was stopped by Shang Xi. This time, the Empress Dowager Liu didn't get angry again in public. She could tell that the three people standing behind Shang Xi and the guards were Luo Wei's. The Empress Dowager Liu didn't say much, she turned her head and went back to the Xie Nian Hall, and immediately ordered someone to go out of the palace to find Chang Ling. This time, something happened to the Chang family. Luo Wei even had to lock up the Chang family in the palace, so let the Chang family brother deal with Luo Wei. The Empress Dowager Liu could hardly wait to see that the angry Chang Ling rushed to the Yijin Garden and killed the damn Luo Wei with one sword. As for what Long Xuan would do with Chang Ling after returning to the dynasty, the Empress Dowager Liu also thought about it, and it was nothing more than killing Chang Ling and abolishing Chang's post, which had no effect on her at all.
The bad news of the extermination of the whole clan made Chang Ling never believe it, and then he was furious and confused. After receiving the news from the Empress Dowager Liu from the palace, Chang Ling rushed out of the bedroom. If you want to kill Luo Wei, this person seems to have a hard time with him forever, not killing him! It's just that Chang Ling rushed to the courtyard and stood down again. Chang Ling was not a reckless man. He entered the palace and killed Luo Wei? Chang Ling asked himself, can this person be killed
Just as Chang Ling was standing in the courtyard, when heaven and man were at war in his heart, Jiang Yunsi, the governor of the Shangdu of the Xingwu Dynasty, and the minister of punishment of the Pingzhang Dynasty, walked in from outside the courtyard. Seeing that Chang Ling was standing facing him as if he was unconscious, Jiang Shangshu hurriedly called Chang Ling: "Uncle Guo? Uncle Guo?" He shouted several times.
Chang Ling finally came to his senses after Jiang Shangshu gave him a final push, and only then did he see clearly that the person standing in front of him was the Minister of Punishment.
Seeing that Chang Ling had recovered, Jiang Shangshu said to Chang Ling with sympathy on his face: "Uncle Guo, now the Lingnan Chang clan is supported by you alone. You can't be too sad and hurt yourself."
Chang Ling silently asked Jiang Shangshu to come into the room to speak, and he understood what Jiang Shangshu said. The Chang clan still has people who bring soldiers out, but those children, the soldiers in their hands are not enough to make them a big member of the party. These Chang clan children will rely on his protection in the future.
After Jiang Shangshu entered the room and sat down, he handed Mrs. Chang a piece of paper with a rubbing of his waist card on it, and said, "Xie Mingyuan means to let Uncle Guo see this first, but I think it's better to let Uncle Guo see this. Grandpa sees it well, so Uncle Guo won't have to think about it any more."
Chang Ling looked at the rubbing on the paper carefully. Chang Ling didn't know what the waist card represented, but there was a flying dragon on it, and it was a five-clawed golden dragon. This is the thing of a royal emperor. Chang Ling looked at the word "one" in the middle for a long time without saying a word.
"Uncle Guo," Jiang Shangshu told Chang Ling without having to ask Chang Ling: "This was found in the hands of a deceased in Chang's old house. It was the bodyguard of the old man. Half of the body was burned, but this The belt is still intact."
"What does this mean?" Chang Ling asked.
"It was left by the murderer," Jiang Shangshu said, "it's hard to say the rest."
"Are you sure?"
"There is blood on the waist card, and the sling was forcibly pulled off by someone," Jiang Shangshu said, "It can be seen that the waist card was pulled from the person by the guard during a fight. Maybe there was chaos at the time. , the person with the waist card didn't find it, otherwise he would never leave this waist card."
"Where is this waist card now?" Chang Ling asked, just a rubbing, he couldn't make him believe anything, he wanted to see the original.
"In Xie Mingyuan's place," Jiang Shangshu said, "Uncle Guo, the murderer is not without a trace now, you still give us a little time, and I will definitely urge the local officials in Lingnan to arrest the murderer."
"Thank you very much," Chang Ling said to Jiang Shangshu with all his strength, "I can wait."
Jiang Shangshu got up to say goodbye to Chang Ling.
"There is a dragon on it," Chang Ling stopped Jiang Shangshu and said, "What do you mean by that?"
"This matter needs to be investigated in detail," Jiang Shangshu said: "Uncle Guo, I think this matter is not for money, it's as simple as feuding and vengeance. You have to be patient and don't act rashly."
Chang Ling nodded.
Jiang Shangshu didn't ask Chang Ling to send it, and he strode out.
Chang Ling sat in the room and fought a cold war. That waist card is the thing of a royal emperor. What does this mean? Is it the Pingzhang Emperor Longxuan who wants to destroy his Chang family? impossible! Chang Ling felt a thousand waves in his heart, His Majesty had no reason to destroy his Chang family, but what happened to this waist card? Is someone trying to frame it? Framed the emperor
After Jiang Shangshu left the mansion where Chang Ling was temporarily staying, he got on the sedan chair and returned to the Punishment Bureau.
After Jiang Shangshu's official sedan chair walked out of the street, a man walked up to Jiang Shangshu's sedan chair and whispered, "Sir?"
"I have already done it," Jiang Shangshu said to this person in the sedan chair: "Go back and return to your life."
The man stopped, turned around and walked into the crowd on the street, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Shangshu sat in the sedan chair and sighed. Luo Wei asked people to come to him to do things. Although he didn't understand Luo Wei's intention to send the rubbing to Chang Ling, and how could Luo Wei know that there was such a waist card in Chang's old house, Jiang Shangshu still did. As Luo Zhiqiu's old subordinate, Jiang Shangshu can help Luo Wei if he can.
Xie Yu waited for Chang Ling who came to the door in Shangshu Province.
"I heard that a waist card was found in Chang's old house," Chang Ling didn't talk nonsense to Xie Yu, and said after seeing Xie Yu: "Master Xie, I want to see this waist card."
"What waist card?" Xie Yu wanted to play stupid and said, "I don't know what Uncle Guo is talking about."
"Master Xie," Chang Ling kept restraint in front of Xie Yu, he said to Xie Yu: "I have my own way, I know I have such a waist card, don't ask me where the news came from, I only I want to see this brand."
Xie Yu was not worried about Chang Ling, but he was worried about Luo Wei. After hearing the news of the extermination of the Chang clan, the first person Xie Yu thought of was Luo Wei. This could not be done by others, it must be Luo Wei Wei did. Xie Yu didn't expect Luo Wei to be so ruthless. This man was worried that Wei Lan would kill too many people and damage his wickedness, but he was not worried about his own wickedness at all. "Uncle Guo," Xie Yu said to Chang Ling, "There is a national law, don't make it difficult for me, the case of the Chang family has been taken over by the Ministry of Punishment, and Lord Jiang will give you an explanation."
Chang Ling smashed Xie Yu's desk with a fist and said angrily: "My entire Chang clan is dead! You told me to just wait like this? Sir Xie, as long as you are convenient, I will only Take a look at that waist card, I won't embarrass you about other things."
Xie Yu said: "You can see who the murderer is by looking at it?"
