Pro-military guard Yamen.

"The official has seen it with his own eyes and doesn't dare to tell lies!"

Upon hearing Xiao Huan's question, Cao Yan did not dare to neglect, nodded vigorously, and said affirmatively.

"Can you see the murderer clearly?!"

Xiao Huan looked solemn and continued to ask.

"See clearly..."

"He is the personal bodyguard of the grandson of the current dynasty..."

Cao Yan looked up at Xiao Huan and said clearly, with a nervous look on his face.

Upon hearing Cao Yan's answer, Xiao Huan's expression suddenly changed, and he stood up with shock on his face.

"Cao Yan! Stop talking nonsense!"

"It is a capital crime to frame the grandson of the current dynasty!"

Xiao Huan glared at Cao Yan and scolded him harshly.

"The official has indeed seen it with his own eyes! Everything is true!"

"Except Cai Pingjin, the son of the minister, several of his personal followers were all killed! The bodies are in Jiaofangsi!"

"Commander Xiao, if you don't believe it, you can check it out now!"

Cao Yan swallowed nervously and said affirmatively.

Although he still didn't know why Zhu Yunxi asked him to take the initiative to report to the official, but since he had been allowed to report to the official, he naturally had to distance himself from all ties!

"Come here! Follow my envoy to the Jiaofang Department immediately!"

Xiao Huan's face was solemn, and he immediately gave the order and rushed to the Jiaofang Division with Jin Wuwei.

However, just when Xiao Huan and the Jinwu Guards rushed to the vicinity of Jiaofangsi, they found that many people from the Knight Cavalry Guard had gathered inside and outside the entire Jiaofangsi!

Seeing this scene, Xiao Huan immediately ordered his men to stop advancing. He did not expect that Xiaoqiwei actually took the lead!

"Did you send someone to report the news to the Cavalry Guards?!"

Xiao Huan turned to glare at Cao Yan and asked in a deep voice.

"No..."

Cao Yan shook his head quickly and affirmatively. Even he was confused at this time.

"When he went to the Yamen to report to the officials, how many people heard what he said?!"

Xiao Huan frowned, turned to look at his men, and asked in a deep voice.

"A lot of people."

The subordinate thought for a moment and replied immediately.

After hearing this answer, Xiao Huan's face gradually became gloomy.

He has determined that there is an informant of Xiaoqi Wei in Jinwu Guard! Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Knight Cavalry to arrive before him!

The person who leads the Cavalry Guard is Li Jinglong, and Li Jinglong is the grandson of the Second Emperor!

Thinking of this, Xiao Huan couldn't help but feel his scalp numb. After hesitating for a moment, he ignored Cao Yan and immediately evacuated with his men. While sending people to pass the news to Liuli Palace, he quickly rushed to the Chinese Army Governor's Mansion.

Cao Yan froze on the spot, looking at the Jinwu Guards who suddenly left. He was at a loss for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately walked quickly towards the Jiaofang Division.

Within the Jiaofang Division.

In the private room on the second floor, Li Jinglong looked at the corpses on the ground with a solemn expression, but there was a hint of gloating smile in his eyes.

He had met Cai Pingjin before, so he recognized him at a glance.

Originally, the second emperor's grandson was still worried about his position as grandson, and the Lu family secretly sent retainers to assassinate the third emperor's grandson. Unexpectedly, today he caught the third emperor's grandson and killed the son of the Minister of Punishment. evidence!

It can be said that there is no place to look for even if you have worn iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!

Don't miss this opportunity!

At this moment, a subordinate walked in quickly from the door and quickly came to Li Jinglong's side.

"Commander, the Jinwu Guards have just arrived, but they didn't get close. They quietly withdrew after discovering we were here."

"In addition, Cao Yan, the head of the Jiaofang Department, has returned and is right outside the door."

The subordinate leaned into Li Jinglong's ear and whispered a few words softly.

"Let him in!"

After hearing the report from his subordinates, a sneer flashed across Li Jinglong's face and he said in a deep voice.

Soon, Cao Yan, who had left and returned, respectfully walked into the box and came to Li Jinglong.

For him, whether he reports to the Jinwu Guards or the Xiaoqi Guards, it is the best choice for self-protection! At that time, Taisun did not specify which yamen he should report to!

Since both Jinwu Guards and Xiaoqi Guards are responsible for guarding and inspecting Kyoto, there is no difference to him!

If this matter could bring disaster to the grandson in the end, then no one would know that he was from King Yan!

"Who killed the person?!"

Li Jinglong turned to look at Cao Yan coldly and asked in a deep voice.

"It's His Royal Highness Taisun!"

Cao Yan said without thinking.

"This matter is of great importance, are you sure?!"

Li Jinglong asked coldly.

"I saw it with my own eyes!"

Cao Yan nodded heavily, his face full of affirmation.

"Bring the body back!"

"Until the case is settled, the Jiaofang Division has temporarily sealed it. You are not allowed to leave Kyoto without permission and are subject to summons at any time!"

After getting the answer he wanted, Li Jinglong immediately ordered his men to bring all the corpses back, then coldly warned Cao Yan and left.

After leaving the Jiaofang Division, Li Jinglong sent someone to secretly pass the news to Jinxiu Palace, and rushed to the palace to meet him.

...

The Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Army.

"You said His Highness Taisun killed the son of Cai Yuanpei, the Minister of Punishment?!"

"Is this true?!"

When Xu Huizu heard the news from Xiao Huan, he stood up with the same shock and asked in disbelief.

The assassination of the great grandson yesterday has not yet been resolved. I didn't expect that trouble would happen again so soon!

It seems that ever since this grandson reappeared in front of the world, there has never been peace in Kyoto!

"Cao Yan, the head of the Jiaofang Department, saw it with his own eyes!"

"It was him who came to the pro-military guard in person!"

Xiao Huan nodded affirmatively and said.

"Then what are you doing here?! Why don't you go to the Jiaofang Department to find out about this matter?!"

Xu Huizu asked dissatisfied.

"It's too late, the Knights Guards have already arrived ahead of time!"

Xiao Huan shook his head helplessly.

"How did they arrive before you? What happened?"

Xu Huizu was stunned for a moment and asked hesitantly.

"Bizhi is also a little confused. Cao Yan said that he only went to the pro-army guard and did not send anyone to the Xiaoqi Guards, so he suspected that there was an informant of the Xiaoqi Guards among the Jinwu Guards!"

Xiao Huan gritted his teeth and said slowly.

Hearing Xiao Huan's answer, Xu Huizu couldn't help but frown, with a trace of displeasure on his face.

The Knight Cavalry Guard actually dared to plant an informant in the Jinwu Guard, which had already touched his bottom line. However, it was not the time to care about this at this time. The most important thing at the moment was how to deal with the murder of the son of the Minister of Punishment in the Jiaofang Division!

If this matter gets serious, it will shock the entire government and opposition parties!

At that time, it may not be as simple as the grandson losing his position overnight!

"Captain, how should we respond next?"

Xiao Huan looked at Xu Huizu hesitantly and asked slowly.

"It's a matter of great grandson. Whether we do it or not is a question! Since the Cavalry Guard has intervened, we'd better stay put and wait until the situation changes."

Xu Huizu frowned and said thoughtfully.

"I also think this is true, so I saw that the Cavalry Guards had arrived and did not show up. I came to report to you first. Maybe we can wait and see what happens. Li Jinglong will definitely enter the palace and report to His Majesty as soon as possible. How about we Let’s see His Majesty’s reaction before deciding whether to intervene.”

Xiao Huan nodded and explained seriously.

"Did I, the Governor, hear correctly?"

"Based on your relationship with His Royal Highness, do you actually want to stay out of the matter at this time?"

After listening to Xiao Huan's words, Xu Huizu looked at Xiao Huan suspiciously and asked in a deep voice.

"Because of this, you need to avoid suspicion for your humble position, otherwise you will inevitably be talked about, which will be detrimental to His Highness the Grand Sun."

Xiao Huan shook his head and hurriedly explained, but when he said this, he obviously felt a little guilty.

"Okay, let's do as you say for the time being."

"If you have nothing to do, go back and be on call at any time."

Xu Huizu snorted lightly and said in a deep voice.

Xiao Huan agreed, turned around and left without saying anything more.

Looking at Xiao Huan's leaving figure, a strange look flashed between Xu Huizu's eyebrows.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Huizu called his confidants and ordered to pay close attention to the movements of the Xiaoqi Guards.

...

Wandering Palace.

Zhu Yunxi took Zi Ning and Liuli back to his palace under the escort of Jin Yiwei. Little did he know that at this time, the city of Kyoto was already in a tense situation because of Cai Pingjin's death.

On the way back to the palace, Zhu Yunxi had ordered the imperial doctor to be sent to the Liuli Palace. As soon as they came back, the imperial doctor had been ordered to start treating Liuli's injuries.

When the imperial doctor saw the bloodstains on Liuli's back, he couldn't help but be shocked. He couldn't figure out who could be so cruel to deal such a cruel blow to a weak woman.

Zhu Yunxi was waiting quietly outside, holding a cup of tea in his hand. He still looked as calm as water, and did not seem to be worried about the coming storm.

Or maybe, he already had a plan in mind and thought of a way to deal with it...
