Chapter 76 I Don’t Like Him
Ji Yunshu sighed, "Our method is not without loopholes. After a few days, those people should have come to their senses."
It is impossible for a seriously injured person to escape, so the one who escaped is definitely not the one they want to catch.
But one person did escape that night.
The rest is easy to guess.
Lan Ting touched his face and said, "This disguise is so advanced, it shouldn't be discovered. Besides, Prince Zhao has rarely appeared in public in recent years, let alone the servants around him."
The problem is that even the Prince Zhao in front of you is fake.
Ji Yunshu didn't dare to hope for anything. "We are already the main suspects, and they are targeting the disguised people. It's hard to say that we won't be discovered. We still have to think of a way."
It doesn’t matter if Lan Ting is discovered, but it will be troublesome if Zhao Shen is found out.
"Is there any way to avoid being noticed?"
Lan Ting couldn't help but ask.
Of course, he didn't want to be discovered. Not only would he suffer the consequences, but he would also bring trouble to the Changxing Marquisate.
Ji Yunshu thought for a moment and said, "Find something for the patrol battalion to do so they don't have time to search."
The other party has a killer organization like the Yama Palace, among which there may be people who are proficient in disguise. They must not take any risks.
Chao Qing said, "The patrol camp has been quiet for the past few days. They agreed to let people go down the mountain today. They must have made some preparations. I'm afraid ordinary things can't stop them."
Ji Yunshu was also at a loss.
The carriage was still moving forward slowly and they didn't have much time.
Finally, Lan Ting looked at the Huguo Temple not far away and said, "If all else fails, let's go to the Huguo Temple and light a fire."
Huguo Temple is different from ordinary temples. It is quite prestigious among the people and is highly valued by the imperial court. The powerful and wealthy often come here to burn incense and pray for blessings.
If a fire broke out at this time, the people from the patrol camp were close by and there was no reason not to put out the fire.
Dongzhi looked at him with the same expression: "That's the Huguo Temple. Wouldn't this offend the Buddha?"
Lan Ting sneered: "People can't survive, and you still have time to worry about the Buddha. If the Buddha really has a spirit, why doesn't he punish those evil people?"
Dongzhi was stunned when he heard the anger in his words.
Chao Qing, however, looked at the slowly moving carriages and pedestrians ahead and nodded, saying, "We should not be lucky if we check so carefully. Dongzhi, go and light a fire."
Dongzhi looked at Chaoqing, nodded, and left.
He didn't care whether Lan Ting would be discovered or not, but the prince must not be discovered.
After everyone left, Lan Ting continued, "Aren't you trying to bring down Jingzhao Yin? With all that I have, plus the fire at Huguo Temple, I think that's enough."
Chao Qing stared at him and asked, "What deep hatred do you have with Qin Fengwei?"
The position of Jingzhao Yin is not higher than the third rank, but he is the parent official of the capital and is responsible for all matters big and small in the capital.
But the capital city is a special place, full of royal relatives, nobles and wealthy families.
Eight out of ten cases involve these people.
If you want to be the Jingzhao Yin, both ability and background are essential.
Qin Fengwei was born into the Qin family and was a successful imperial examination candidate. He had made almost no mistakes in this position for many years, and the emperor had always trusted him very much.
Unfortunately, the clues of Ji Yunshu’s assassination last time were revealed.
Ji Yunshu felt that the emperor had been silent these days, not necessarily because he still trusted him, but because he had no suitable reason.
If there is something wrong with Qin Fengwei, then the Qin family behind him is probably not clean either.
Thinking of this, Ji Yunshu couldn't help but sigh. It was really troublesome.
Lan Ting had no sense of causing trouble at all, and smiled and said, "I should be the one asking you two, how did Qin Fengwei offend you that you want to bring him down?"
He didn't say anything at first, but these two people wanted to deal with Qin Fengwei as soon as they had a disagreement.
He didn't believe they were doing it for him.
Ji Yunshu found that this man was really cunning. Even though he was still in danger, he started to ask questions again.
She narrowed her eyes and smiled, "I don't like him."
Lan Ting: “…”
That's a really strong reason.
He touched his nose and said, "Since you already know everything about me, this is not a big deal. Although I have been hunted by the Hades Palace for many years, I have also learned a lot about the Hades Palace. For example, some of their assassins are stationed in the capital and occasionally take action, but nothing has happened. Why do you think this is?"
People die every day in the capital from various reasons, but the killers' attacks are still different. It would be okay once or twice, but if these people could escape unscathed every time, that would be unusual.
And the position of Jingzhao Yin is a hurdle they must overcome.
Lan Ting was so frank, so Ji Yunshu naturally couldn't keep silent. "The last time I was assassinated, it was done by the people of the Hades Palace, but Qin Fengwei's behavior was very strange before and after."
Lan Ting was surprised: "Just because of this?"
Ji Yunshu thought for a moment and asked, "Since you know about the affairs of the Yama Palace, do you know who is behind them?"
Speaking of this, Lanting fell silent.
After investigating for so many years, he has come very close to the truth, but the matter is too serious and he doesn't know whether he should just say it out loud.
In other words, are these two people in front of me really trustworthy?
Ji Yunshu did not ask any further questions, as their carriage was about to reach the intersection.
At this time, the winter solstice came back quickly.
Ji Yunshu looked up and saw a cloud of thick smoke rising above the Huguo Temple.
She asked with some concern: "Such a big fire won't kill anyone, right?"
Dongzhi shook his head: "Don't worry, Madam, it's daytime now, the monks inside are awake and can run out."
Lan Ting asked curiously, "The fire started only after you came back, and it burned like this all of a sudden. How did you do that?"
Dongzhi looked at him warily without saying anything.
Lan Ting tactfully didn't ask any more questions, but he felt even more puzzled.
Isn’t it said that the prince of Changxing Marquis’s Mansion is a disabled person who hides in the mansion and never even leaves the house?
Not only are the people around me all experts, but they also have some weird skills.
For example, disguise, and arson.
These are not the abilities that the guards of ordinary nobles should have.
As they were talking, people outside also saw the fire in Huguo Temple.
Many people hurriedly called for help to go back and put out the fire, while others were worried about getting burned and urged their servants to hurry on.
When Qin Fengwei saw the fire, he knew the other party's purpose, but he could not ignore the Huguo Temple.
He was responsible for the fire in Huguo Temple when it was surrounded by the patrol camp.
If the fire is not put out in time and any losses are caused, the person involved will be held responsible.
While organizing people to put out the fire, he tried to stop the carriage going down the mountain.
But he hasn't caught the so-called fugitive these days. Now the mountain is on fire and people are blocking the way down the mountain.
These people were not so easy to talk to and immediately started making trouble.
Seeing that the fire on the mountain was getting bigger and bigger, Qin Fengwei had no choice but to take people to put out the fire first.
Hei Feng looked at the Zhao family's carriage not far away and said unwillingly, "It will be inspected soon."
Qin Fengwei sneered: "You've resorted to such tricks, it seems there's something wrong."
