Chapter 349 The Prince's Predicament
In the morgue of the Kyoto government office, a rotten and rotten corpse smell permeated the entire morgue.

The bodies of Lou Yuan and Meng Qingfeng were placed in the innermost place.

Because the death of the two people was really horrible, it took a lot of time to piece together the corpses before they could barely piece together a general shape.

Accompanying Suning were Fuyin Zhou Sheng and several government servants and widowers.

Regarding Suning, everyone in the entire capital knew about it, and the friendship between him and the prince was always followed by court officials, but no official dared to think about Suning.

Because he is a peak cultivator, playing with him is the same as eating with King Yama, courting death.

After the yamen guard lifted the white cloth soaked in blood and flesh grease, the stench of corpses swept out like a howling wind, and Zhou Sheng took the veil handed over by Wu Zuo to cover his mouth and nose.

Wu Zuo handed it to Suning respectfully, and Suning waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need it.

The stench of corpses was overwhelming, the yamen servants had long been used to it, and Zhou Sheng's complexion turned ashen.

Wu Zuo stared at Suning seriously, wanting to see how the peak cultivator performed the autopsy.

Suning looked at the broken flesh and blood, and stretched out his hand to test whether there was any spiritual energy left in the flesh and blood.

"eccentric!"

Su Ning frowned and said, "This is an extremely weird aura. It is obviously extremely pure, but it is extremely strange, full of a sense of hell's desolation."

Zhou Sheng asked tentatively: "Mr. Su, what do you mean by this? Could it be that the murderer is really a peak monk?"

Su Ning nodded, pointed at the two corpses and said, "Both of them were suddenly inflated by a kind of spiritual energy condensate, and then their bodies exploded to death. In Kyoto, if you want to escape the guardian formation of the national teacher, you must be a peak Monk."

Zhou Sheng frowned and said, "Then what should we do?"

Peak monks, that is not something that the Kyoto government can handle. In fact, only the national teacher can suppress the entire capital, but the national teacher has wandered away.

Su Ning sighed: "The key issue now is not who the murderer is, but how to arrest the murderer. The battle between the peak monks is not so easy. Even if Kyoto has a large guard array to prevent the murderer from escaping, but if the other party fights to the death , even if I can kill him, the capital will probably be half destroyed."

Hearing this, Zhou Sheng felt a chill run down his spine.

Regarding this point, he did not expect that the existence of the peak monk is really a heresy for the existence of the dynasty.

However, this is not something he can control, and he said with emotion: "It would be great if we can catch the murderer."

Suning left the Kyoto government office with his hands behind his back, went to the Zangshu Pavilion of the Sheji Academy, and found a book about Lanke Temple on the bookshelf.

While browsing, Suning saw a secret method of Lanke Temple called Tianlun Orb, which is very similar to the method of this conspiracy.

It is a magical power similar to the law of heaven and earth, the only difference is that this magical power is used on the magic weapon beads, similar to Monkey King's golden cudgel, which can be big or small, long or short.

Su Ning closed the book and put it back on the shelf, and began to close his eyes and meditate.

Having read too many mystery novels, he can naturally write profiles according to the scene.

The first conspiracy.

Fragrance and water mist rose, and a plump body lay on a deck chair covered with brocade quilts.

Back in time.

While the Minister of Rites was still taking a bath, a red Buddhist bead that resembled a elixir slowly floated into the room.

The cork of the bottle of elixir in front of the recliner rose up, and the Buddhist beads entered it.

That's it!

Suning opened his eyes and smiled.

As long as the other party commits a murder again, he will definitely be able to perceive it.

It's just that the other party is definitely not stupid, so how can he still act so blatantly when he intervenes, and even the person who does the attack may be replaced by an ordinary person.

"It's getting more and more interesting."

Suning smiled.

Life is actually repeating some infinite things over and over again. Suning has been at ease in the capital for too long, making Suning forget that he is still a great monk.

Three days later, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry died again in a brothel, but this time he died of a red sleeve move.

The appearance of death is very ordinary, but it is a bit funny. It is said that he died of horse wind.

This has become a disgrace to the court.

This has also reduced the prince's popularity in the capital to its peak recently. In contrast, King Xin began to cultivate his morals, and even restrained his subordinates to pay attention to virtue.

Suning is in charge of this case.

In fact, it was suggested by Suning himself, mainly because the murderer seemed to have stopped committing crimes recently, so Suning had no clues at all, and his life was too comfortable.

Suning thought this case was very interesting and suspicious, and he happened to be at the scene again, so after the case happened, he directly let Zhou Sheng take a back seat.

The scene was very charming, but there were no girls. It seemed that after taking some aphrodisiacs, they immediately became windy.

"It's not right, it's very wrong." After Suning inspected the body, he said to Zhou Sheng, "Did everyone in Hongxiu Zhao not leave?"

Zhou Sheng nodded.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry is also a member of the prince, even if his status is not as high as the previous two, he is still a senior official, and he must be taken seriously when he dies.

After Suning inspected the corpse, he stretched out his hand to press the corpse of Minister of the Ministry of Industry, pointed his finger, and the spiritual energy rippled in his corpse, and a transparent needle slowly emerged from his head, showing signs of melting.

"What is this?" Zhou Sheng exclaimed, and the other yamen servants also became curious.

Su Ning said indifferently: "This is called Xuanyin Needle. It is a poisonous needle made of a strange drug, which can kill people without a trace. However, it has a shortcoming, that is, it cannot be digested by the human body in a short time."

Zhou Sheng frowned and said, "This is a murder case!"

He smiled wryly.

Since he served as governor of the capital, he has never encountered such a series of murders.

He is not a member of the prince, nor is he a person who believes in the king. If something happens, no powerful person will give him a full explanation.

"Mr. Su, I leave everything to you." Zhou Sheng looked at Suning expectantly.

Su Ning said to himself: "You order people to bring all the people from the rivers and lakes in the brothel to this room."

Zhou Sheng nodded and left.

After staying with Suning for a long time, he felt more and more incompetent.

The ancient times were different from the civilized era. In fact, there was no evidence to deal with the case. As long as there were enough reasons, they could be tortured directly.

Of course, this is only for ordinary people. Among the rich and powerful, this is somewhat impossible.

During this period of time, Suning continued to check every part of the house.

There is no trace of intrusion, so it can be seen that the murderer must have walked in aboveboard.

This is a room in a small courtyard, the road is complicated, and it is easy to hide.

Not long after, Zhou Sheng walked in with five Jianghu people.

After seeing Suning, the five people each showed complicated expressions.

The meaning of peak monks is extraordinary to these martial arts.

Su Ning looked at the five people with a smile, pointed at the corpse of Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and asked tentatively, "Do you know what is on top of his head?"

"Xuanyin Needle!"

The five people exclaimed.

Suning observed carefully.

The young man in the middle, who looked about 21 years old, was the most surprised, dumbfounded, and seemed to express his surprise bluntly.

It’s too late.

However, this does not mean that he is the murderer.

Su Ning smiled lightly with his hands behind his back: "Xuanyin needles are made of toxins, so they must be kept properly. I think one of you must have a needle box for Xuanyin needles. Come and search."

Five yamen servants immediately stepped forward to search the body.

Su Ning is a friend of the prince, and he is the organizer of the conspiracy in Kyoto. Even if he did not become an official in the court, the status of the peak monk and these are enough to make them obey his words.

The faces of the five people from the rivers and lakes all showed displeasure, but in the face of Suning, it is obvious that resistance is the most stupid.

"Mr. Su, there is a small wooden box on this person, isn't it this?"

One of the yamen servants found a very delicate wooden box and handed it over respectfully.

Suning took it and opened it, nodded and said, "That's right, this is it."

There are still three Xuanyin needles in the box, and the green ice grass is spread on the bottom to prevent the Xuanyin needles from melting.

"It's not me, it's not!" The Jianghu man whose Xuanyin Needle was found looked ashen, waved his hands again and again, not daring to say anything, "That's obviously just my hidden weapon box, how could it be the Xuanyin Needle?"

Zhou Sheng smiled and said, "The physical evidence is on you, what do you have to defend? Take it down."

The yamen servant immediately captured the man.

But Su Ning shook his head and said, "The murderer is not him."

Zhou Sheng didn't dare to refute, but asked: "Mr. Su, could it be that it was framed?"

Su Ning nodded, and asked the quack: "Which of the four of them have you had contact with? When you came here."

The Jianghu man pointed to the young man beside him and said, "That's him."

silence!

Zhou Sheng didn't speak, he listened carefully and thought about Suning's handling of this murder case.

Su Ning looked at the teenager and asked a sharp question: "Do you think you can escape?"

"I didn't. He wronged me."

"Yes, but do you know the characteristics of Xuanyin needles? As long as people who have used Xuanyin needles have poison left on their bodies, they may be colorless and odorless. There are purple marks."

"I……"

The boy had nothing to say.

He didn't know what to say in defense, even if he didn't know whether what Suning said was true or not, but how could a peak monk deceive him, that would be too bad.

"I recruited, and I killed the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry." The young man knelt down.

Zhou Sheng said angrily: "Why?"

The young man raised his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Because he deserves to die! When he was the governor of Xuanzhou, he fell in love with my sister, but my sister refused, and he even sent killers to wipe out my whole family. If I hadn't been hiding in the water I was also killed in the vat, and fortunately a little beggar was adopted by my parents at that time, so I escaped unharmed."

This is a pretty cliché story.

According to the novel of later generations, this is an absolute protagonist, but he is unlucky to meet Suning.

Zhou Sheng couldn't believe it, this is okay!

He is not uninformed, but he has never seen such a method of solving a case. Even if Su Ning is a peak monk, it is only in terms of strength.

For a monk to practice, even if he becomes a god, things like wisdom cannot be improved.

Of course, gods can extract wisdom, but that is not something that mortals can do.

Only in the legend.

Suning was also a little touched by such a tragic past, but that was all.

This is the way of the world, a perfect world will not exist at all, because people are complicated, even if there is a lot of intrigue in the divine way of heaven, let alone people!
That boy was taken away by Zhou Sheng.

Hongxiu recruiting business has also dropped sharply.

This has greatly reduced the brothel business in Kyoto. After all, murders happened one after another, which is very strange.

Therefore, the cry of spring often appeared at night, even in the mansion of a scholar next door to Su's mansion.

Domestic flowers are not as good as wild flowers, but domestic flowers are also very good.

In the middle of winter, everything withered, and the first snow fell in Kyoto. Sun Miao used to hate winter very much, but after being adopted by Suning to study, the winter snow that was like a birthday enemy to her has become a beautiful day. .

It has been a long time since the murder in Kyoto happened. Even if the murderer is not found, no one is in a hurry.

The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is not in a hurry, the king is not in a hurry, even Suning is not in a hurry, only the prince is in a hurry.

Because most of his officials died tragically, King Xin intervened in the selection of ministers of the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Industry.

Due to the sudden incident, the prince did not prepare the successors of these three parts at all. Therefore, the prince and Xin Wang's people were competing for these two parts.

The prince knew that if the second brother's person became the third minister, his prestige in the court would be greatly reduced.

If it was the past, the father might restrain the second brother, but now, the father has completely sunk into Pei Meiren's tenderness and cannot extricate himself, and he has no worries about political affairs.

This has been the case since ancient times!
……

"Snowing!"

Sun Miao danced lightly in the courtyard.

Today, she is not as thin as before, even though she is still very young, but her ruddy and fair face already has the embryonic form of a beauty.

Kyoto is a vast expanse of whiteness, covered in plain silver, earth dragons and charcoal fires from rich and noble families are constantly burning.

Not long after, a tiny snowman appeared in the courtyard, ugly, but very funny.

Because, on the snowman's face, there are five extremely elegant characters written on it.

The girl who used to be unconfident is now full of self-confidence, and Suning is even more satisfied with her grades in Sheji Academy.

Suning is cooking plum wine in the pavilion.

Judge Sun's expectations have been fulfilled, and he has nothing to worry about.

There is indeed no clue about the conspiracy in the capital, but because of Wei Changjiu's acquiescence, he has absolute control over the capital. As long as the opponent makes another move, he will capture the opponent's trajectory in the shortest time.

Everything was going as he expected.

……

The East Palace is gloomy and gloomy.

Qin Zhong's subordinates have suffered heavy losses.

Now his prestige in the capital is no longer comparable to that of his second brother, Xinwang Qinchuan.

The court struggle is so realistic.

Even though the Kyoto conspiracy has not happened for a long time, the people under him seem to have encountered a curse, and died one after another strangely or were involved in murders one after another.

However, he also began to calm down, perhaps because he was too smooth before, or because he underestimated his second brother too much.

Qin Chong's eyes turned cold.

In fact, he has always been somewhat bookish, so his work has never been hot enough, and he has missed many good opportunities.

But now, no more!

His eyes were always fixed on the conspiracy in Kyoto.

Qin Chong's first feeling told him that this conspiracy must be related to Pei Meiren and his second brother.

He is at a disadvantage now, so he must take the initiative.

He thought to himself, the second brother must be very proud now, but he hasn't completely won yet, and fortunately I have always had the habit of keeping one hand, and I haven't exhausted my cards yet.

Among the three parts, my people can still control the overall situation.

Qin Chong murmured: "You must let the second brother do it once, otherwise I will have no way to take the initiative."

He pondered for a long time, and suddenly thought: "It's better to lead the snake out of the hole."

……

Yuxiu Palace.

Pei Meiren had just finished accompanying the emperor, and she was lazily out of her body, chatting with young monks in the garden.

Because of Pei Meiren, the king will not go to court early from now on.

The young monk said: "The prince's lineage doesn't have much power, and it's only a matter of time before they are defeated."

"However, I heard that a steward of the Prince's Mansion is secretly investigating my affairs in the palace, and he has some clues, and now he will go out of the palace to report." Pei Meiren said suddenly.

The young monk frowned and said: "I don't seem to be able to make a move. Suning has already stared at me. If he finds out, I'm afraid all the previous efforts will be wasted."

Peak monks must also abide by the rules.

This is also the reason why the young monk is calm and composed.

However, once he makes another move and finds a reason for Suning, it will be dangerous.

Pei Meiren sighed: "I know it can't be done, but if something goes wrong, no one else can be relied upon. Moreover, if our secret is discovered, it will be terrible."

"Sure?"

"Definitely, if we find out the reason for the prince and let Suning take action, then our plan will be in vain, and we would rather kill the wrong one than let it go."

Pei Meiren was extremely determined.

The young monk left in silence for a long time.

Who said foxes are particularly cunning?
