Chapter 54 Investigating the Case 【Second update, please subscribe】

Zhu Youxiao was still recuperating in the Palace of Compassion, and Concubine Wan Gui didn't dare to leave Yuhuatian behind to do anything, so after accepting the case of drowning, Yuhuatian directly left the Palace of Compassion and returned to Xichang .

At this time, in the yamen, several core figures of Xichang were already waiting here.

Yan Shisan and the head of the stall Ma Jinliang stood at the main seat with cold and arrogant expressions, and the laziness on Ding Xiu's face disappeared, and he also had a gloomy expression at this time, obviously in a bad mood.

Behind is Ji Xueyong, the third rank head, wearing a sky blue python robe, with a shiny bald head, a scar running through his left eye, looks quite ferocious, but at this time he is as docile as a kitten, in front of several big brothers , I dare not be presumptuous at all.

Next to Ji Xueyong is the Xichang killer Zhao Tong, with a blue face full of evil, and dark eyes that make people feel cold.

Behind him is a young man in ordinary clothes. He looks handsome and a little reserved, but his cheekbones are protruding and his hands are covered with calluses. Obviously his martial arts are not weak.

Even Tan Luzi came here after receiving the news of Yuhuatian's return. Although he was promoted to the deputy governor and ranked third rank, he only dared to stand behind Ma Jinliang at this time, and did not dare to surpass him at all.

Tan Luzi is very self-aware. He knows that the reason why he was promoted was that the governor let him be the deputy governor in charge of the internal affairs of the West Factory because of his loyalty.Therefore, in front of Ma Jinliang, he was always very low-key, and he didn't dare to put on airs of his vice-governor.

At this time, the atmosphere was silent, and everyone stood in the mansion, waiting quietly.

"Tap-"

Not long after, clear footsteps sounded outside the mansion, followed by Yu Huatian's lonely and indifferent figure appeared at the door.

Everyone looked serious, and hurried forward, bowing and saluting:
"See the Overlord!"

Yu Huatian glanced at the crowd, then went straight to the Governor's seat and sat down, waved his hand and said, "Get up."

Everyone stood up.

Yu Huatian didn't hesitate either, and directly talked about the situation of entering the palace to meet the saint, and then said: "There is another strange thing about the emperor falling into the water. The emperor asked me to be responsible for investigating this matter. Do you have any suggestions? Let me know."

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads in unison, as if they had made an agreement, and looked at Ding Xiu with a gloomy face.

With a flash of eyes, Yu Huatian also looked at Ding Xiu and asked, "You know about this?"

Ding Xiu took a deep breath, suppressed the emotions in his heart, then took a step forward, and said in a deep voice: "Master, just now, my subordinates followed Lu Wenzhao to the Xinwang Mansion, and accidentally discovered that the emperor's falling into the water was indeed deliberately done by someone. The person who did this matter was none other than Zhu Youjian, the king of faith. It's just that... his master Ding Baiying and two younger brothers and sisters participated in this matter..."

A trace of surprise flashed in Yu Huatian's eyes, but he was not surprised. He nodded slightly and said, "Then what do you think?"

Ding Xiu was silent for a moment, then said: "After all, Ding Baiying is the mentor of my subordinates, and her goal is actually the same as that of her subordinates. The reason why she chose to take refuge in King Xin may be because she thinks that assassinating the emperor and supporting King Xin Being in the top position can change the current world."

"This subordinate has already met with her, but I don't know if she can change her mind. If she can find her way back and stay away from the king of Xin, this subordinate begs the governor to see that this subordinate will be the same as her mentor and apprentice." For the sake of love, save her life, if not..."

Ding Xiu took a deep breath, and said in a low voice: "Then please allow the supervisor not to intervene in this case. As for whether they live or die, it has nothing to do with the subordinate!"

Hearing this, Yu Huatian nodded slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

The reason why he values ​​Ding Xiu is also because he has a clear distinction between grievances and grievances, and he values ​​love and righteousness. If he really broke up with Ding Baiying for the case of falling into the water, and directly chooses to kill relatives regardless of the relationship between master and apprentice, Yu Huatian Instead, consider whether you can continue to use him in the future.

But now, Yuhuatian is very satisfied with his answer.

"Don't worry, since she is Master Ni, I will give her a chance to choose, including Lu Wenzhao."

Yu Huatian said lightly: "But you have been with me for so long, you should also know what the ambition in my heart is. This world is already chaotic enough, it cannot be changed by changing the emperor, let alone Zhu Youjian He is not a master, he does not have the ability to change the status quo."

"The right of this seat at this moment comes from the emperor, so only the emperor is alive, which is in the best interest of this seat. No matter who else dares to murder the emperor, they are all enemies of this seat!"

"This time they were deceived by King Xin. For your sake, I don't have to care about them, but if they are still stubborn, then don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless."

Ding Xiu's heart relaxed, and he cupped his hands in a deep voice: "Ding Xiu understands, thank you Lord Superintendent!"

Yu Huatian nodded, then looked at Yan Shisan, Ma Jinliang and the others, and said, "I'll leave this matter to you. The King of Xin is the king after all. If there is no definite evidence, we can't move him." , so before arresting him, we must obtain enough evidence."

"In this matter, you can start with the person who tampered with the treasure ship. The person who supervised the construction of the treasure ship was Guo Zhen, the eunuch with the handprint of the official supervisor in the East Factory. This person and Lu Wenzhao were former comrades in the army. In the previous Battle of Salhu, Guo Zhen was also a believer in King Xin, but since King Xin knew that the matter had been exposed, he would probably kill him to silence him, so you should control him in advance."

"In addition, the process of supervising the building of the treasure ship will definitely leave records. The minutes of the treasure ship's supervision should be sealed in Jinyiwei's file warehouse for unified management. Go get the book back."

"At Prince Xin's Mansion, we should also send people to stare at him. After everyone has obtained evidence and I report to the emperor, I will take action to arrest people."

"Yes!"

Everyone saluted solemnly, then turned and left.

Not long after, a large number of masters from the West Factory left the Yamen one after another and began to act separately.

Yu Huatian had already given all the details of this matter. With Yan Shisan and his team's strength, as long as they acted according to the plan, there would be basically no accidents. Therefore, Yu Huatian was not worried and did not intend to take action himself.

If you have to do everything yourself, what do you need your subordinates to do?
After sending them away, Yu Huatian pondered for a while, then got up alone and walked towards the prison.

He is going to see a person, see if he can be subdued, and complete the plan to break through the Grand Master as soon as possible...
-
The criminal law of the Ming Dynasty was strict, not only Hulong Villa, East and West Second Factory and Jinyiwei were in charge of supervision and investigation, but also the Criminal Department was in charge of punishment.

Therefore, Daming had two places to detain prisoners: one was the Imperial Prison of Jinyiwei, and the other was the Prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

The other private prisons secretly set up by the Hulong Mountain Villa or the Second East and West Factory are not recognized by the court and cannot be brought to light.

The prison of the Ministry of punishment, which is also known as the sky prison in the conventional sense, is under the supervision of the Ministry of punishment.

Yuhuatian, as the Duke of Xichang, the emperor's personal guard, is in charge of the power of life and death for civil and military officials. nowhere.

Among them, it naturally includes the prison of the Ministry of punishment.

Seeing Yu Huatian coming, the officer in charge didn't even dare to fart, let alone ask more questions, so he let him go.

But Yuhuatian's destination was very clear. After crossing the dark and damp tunnel, he came directly to the bottom of the dungeon.

This place goes deep into the ground, and it is generally used to detain those prisoners who are more dangerous, and as long as they are locked here, they will basically have no chance to go out again in this life, so the guards here are also extremely strict.

A team of dozens of jailers, all wearing armor and knives, and even carrying crossbow arrows around their waists, stood solemnly at the door to inspect.

Seeing Yuhuatian's arrival, the head of the warden hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "See you for your humble position!"

Yu Huatian said indifferently: "Is there a person named Gu Santong imprisoned on this floor, the one imprisoned by Lord Tiedan himself?"

"Ancient three links?"

There was a trace of doubt in the warden's eyes, and he asked immediately: "Is the eccentric person you are talking about imprisoned for 20 years? I don't know if this person was imprisoned by Lord Shenhou, but in that cell, there are indeed There is a stone tablet with Lord Shenhou's title engraved on it, and no one has dared to move it for 20 years."

"it's him."

Yu Huatian nodded, that stone tablet was placed in the cell specially by Zhu Wushi.

Because Zhu ignored Gu Santong and defeated Gu Santong back then, but instead of killing him, he made him make an oath that in the future, as long as there is a god of iron and courage, Gu Santong will not take half a step.

It is also because of this oath that Gu Santong is willing to be trapped in the sky prison by Zhu Wushi with a stone tablet for 20 years without taking a step. Otherwise, how can he be held in this sky prison?

"Where is it? Take me there." Yuhuatian said without any doubt.

The warden didn't dare to refuse, and quickly said: "My lord, please follow me."

After a while, Yu Huatian followed the warden to the last cell of the prison.

The surroundings of the prison cell were all made of stone, except for an iron door erected in the middle, and beyond the small window of the iron door, no light could be seen, and the small window was even covered with cobwebs, obviously no one had been in for a long time.

"My lord, this is the place."

The warden looked at Yu Huatian's expression carefully, seeing Yu Huatian looking at the cobwebs on the small window, fearing that Yu Huatian might misunderstand that they abused the prisoners, he quickly explained:
"The prisoners in this cell are quite special. Lord Shenhou has specially instructed that no one is allowed to approach this cell, and no one is allowed to deliver food to the prisoners in the cell, so..."

Yu Huatian waved his hand, said without any nonsense, "Open."

"Yes!"

The warden flicked through the keys in a hurry. Maybe it was really a long time since anyone had been here. Even the key was searched for a long time before he found it. He followed him to open the cell door, then stepped back and stood beside him respectfully.

"You go, this seat goes in alone, don't let anyone come in to disturb you."

Yu Huatian waved his hand, then ignored the warden, and stepped straight into the cell door.

As soon as I entered, I saw a stone tablet as high as one person, engraved with the four characters "Iron Dan Shenhou" in strong and powerful characters.

Yu Huatian walked around the stele, and immediately saw a figure with disheveled hair, ragged clothes and limbs chained on the innermost rock wall of the stone chamber.

The figure lowered its head, not knowing whether it was alive or dead, and there was still a stench all over its body, and it was unknown how long it had been since it took a bath.

Yuhuatian frowned slightly from the smell, and immediately held his breath, but he was also relieved in his heart.

Because he sensed the anger in this figure's body, although he was a little weak, he was indeed still alive...

After a slight silence, Yuhuatian said directly: "The ancient three links."

Hearing someone call his name, the figure swayed slightly, then raised his head tremblingly, revealing an old and dull face, and his eyes were full of dead silence:
"who are you?"

Xu Shi hasn't spoken for a long time, Gu Santong's voice is a little hoarse and deep.

"The owner of the West Factory of this seat, Yuhuatian."

Seeing his downcast appearance, Yu Huatian frowned even tighter, and he couldn't feel any real energy in Gu Santong, so he couldn't help asking:
"Your martial arts have been abolished?"

Gu Santong didn't answer. After hearing Yuhuatian's self-identification, he lost any interest, lowered his head again, and said coldly: "What's the matter with you? The eagle dog of the imperial court, don't bother me, get out!"

Yu Huatian's eyes were slightly cold: "You'd better think clearly before talking to me."

Gu Santong's tone was a little sarcasm: "I have been imprisoned for 20 years, and I am not even afraid of death. What can you do with me? Is it the old pig who asked you to come? Why didn't he come in person this year?"

Yu Huatian said coldly: "I know you are not afraid of death, but you don't want to see Su Xin, you and her son?"

"Shhhhh-"

Gu Santong raised his head in an instant, and the iron chain was rattled by him, and even strangled deeply in his flesh, but he didn't care about it at all, just stared at Yuhuatian, his face full of excitement:
"What did you say? Su Xin is not dead yet? I have a son with her?! You are lying to me!"

Yu Huatian said coldly: "I don't need to lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can go out and see for yourself. Back then, Su Xin was not dead, but just in a coma. Over the years, Zhu Wushi has been looking for Tianxiang cardamom everywhere, just to wake her up. "

"Su Xin is not dead...really not dead! I still have a son? Great! Great!"

"Old pig, you still lost to me in the end, Su Xin is always mine, and she even gave birth to a child for me!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Gu Santong trembled with excitement, no longer doubting.

Because he also felt that there was really no need for Yuhuatian to lie to him. He was a useless person, so why would he lie to him?
But soon, he calmed down again, a dimness flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "Even if Su Xin is not dead, so what? I am a useless person now, and time is running out. Even if I have a chance to rescue her, I will I will never see her again..."

"Besides, I will keep my promise. I swore that as long as there is an old pig, I will stay away from it and never take the initiative to take half a step..."

As he spoke, he looked at Yuhuatian, his face softened a lot: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"For the sake of telling me the news, I can tell you whatever you want to know, but what you want me to do for you is already impossible. I can't live for a few days."

Yu Huatian frowned: "You are also the undefeated naughty boy who dominated one side back then. Even if you were imprisoned for 20 years, with your strength, you wouldn't be exhausted so quickly. What did you do?"

Gu Santong said indifferently: "A few days ago, a boy fell from above. I saw that he was very talented, so I passed on all the martial arts to him, including my whole life's martial arts."

Yuhuatian's complexion changed: "You've already encountered right and wrong?!"

Gu Santong nodded, with a calm expression and no regrets.

In his opinion, if he could find a successor before he died, and knew that Su Xin was not dead, and had a son with him, even if he died, he would have no regrets!
Looking at his expression, Yu Huatian took a deep breath, and didn't intend to tell him that Cheng Shifei was his son with Su Xin.

Now that he has passed on his skill to Cheng Zhengfei, it is no longer worth subduing and using, but it does not delay his other purpose:
"Do you know how to break through the Grand Master?"

Gu Santong was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then carefully looked at Yuhuatian.

After a while, a strange color flashed in his eyes: "Your talent is not much weaker than that kid who fell down a few days ago, and you have reached such a level at such a young age, no wonder you came to the prison to find me, a useless person. "

"But you are looking for the wrong person, because I did not break through to the grand master back then. This level cannot be broken through so easily."

Hearing this, Yu Huatian frowned tightly: "You don't know how to break through the grand master?"

Gu Santong shook his head: "Any great master on the rivers and lakes needs decades of precipitation. When I was imprisoned by Zhu Wushi, although I was already a first-class master in the rivers and lakes, I also had not reached the level of a big master." Grandmaster realm."

"However, Zhu Wushi's strength was similar to mine back then, and he was different from me. After the blows of those years, I had no intention of pursuing martial arts, so I have been stuck at the peak of the master for so many years and could not break through. But Zhu Wu has great vision and ambition, and he will definitely not give up. Martial arts, after so many years, he must have broken through to the grand master."

"You can ask him. You and he are both members of the imperial court. If you go to him, he should tell you."

If I can find him, will I come to ask you?

Yu Huatian's face turned cold: "So, since you have lost your martial arts cultivation, you don't know how to break through to the Grand Master? Then what's the point of me coming to you?"

Gu Santong narrowed his eyes slightly: "What do you mean?"

What do you mean?
Murderous intent flashed in Yu Huatian's eyes, and without any patience, his mind moved slightly, and a sword energy burst out of his body instantly.

"laugh--"

Gu Santong shrank his pupils, and before he could react, the sword energy pierced the center of his brows, his eyes widened, staring at Yuhuatian in disbelief, and then his body fell backwards.

[Luck from the ancient three links +6894. 】

Listening to the system prompt that sounded in his mind, Yuhuatian's expression remained indifferent and did not change at all.

"This is your last value!"

Glancing coldly at Gu Santong's body, Yu Huatian was in an extremely bad mood, turned around and walked out with a gloomy expression.
