The moment the woman in red appeared, everyone in Baihua Tower was shocked.
Especially Cui Yong, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, his eyes were wide open with an incredible expression.
I was originally there to laugh at him, thinking that it would be impossible for him to find the murderer so easily.
I never thought it would happen!
He was really forced to tell the truth. Could this primitive and violent method really be helpful in solving the case?
The boss with Cui Yong's mouth open is now extremely submissive.
He finally understood why Lu Yun was able to find out the truth about the assassination of the general so quickly and clear General Xiao He of the injustice.
It seems that his methods are really beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Perhaps, I can learn from it.
Lu Yun was also shocked at this moment, but it was good that the murderer was found.
As long as it can be proved that it was not General Shangguan Yun who sent people to assassinate General Xiao He, it will be fine.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to actually stand up!"
"Tell me, why did you frame the general?"
The woman in red looked at Lu Yun coldly, "Dog official! Dog eunuch."
"Is it your business?"
"I was the one sent to kill Zhang Yang, what's wrong?"
As he said this, everyone looked at him in disbelief.
The woman in red took out a knife in public and slashed her throat, very decisively and without any hesitation.
What... is going on?
Lu Yunren was stunned, and even Cui Yong opened his mouth wide again.
He also never expected that since the murderer had come out to fight, why would he commit suicide in public?
Is she afraid to reveal the person behind her?
Lu Yun frowned, feeling that something was wrong.
It shouldn't be!
It’s so wrong!
However, the murderer has already stepped forward, and it seems that there is not much difference between death and life.
"Someone, take this woman's body away!"
"Everyone from Baihua Tower, you are very lucky. This murderer is very self-aware and seems to have feelings for you. He doesn't want to see you killed."
"Walk!"
After that, a group of people carried the body away in a mighty manner, completing the case efficiently and effectively.
In fact, Lu Yun felt very lucky and thought he was really lucky.
On the side, Cui Yong was full of admiration, "Eunuch Lu is indeed amazing, worthy of being a popular figure around His Majesty."
"Eunuch Lu, I really didn't expect that she was the murderer behind this assassination."
"Do you know who she is?"
Lu Yun shook his head dumbly, he really didn't know.
"Eunuch Lu, this is the top performer in Baihualou, and she only sells her art, not her body."
"I've been here for about two years."
“It was already here two years ago!”
Lu Yun's frown deepened. Something was wrong. Something was wrong! He needed to investigate this matter thoroughly.
No, I should find Xiaoyue and have a good confrontation with her.
…
At the same time, in the Jingzhao Prefecture prison.
Shangguan Yun's Xiaoyue was imprisoned here, and she looked weak.
In the cell, Shangguan Yun, the rough man, spoke in a gentle tone.
"Xiaoyue, I have already pleaded with His Majesty. As long as you tell the truth about this matter."
"You can be spared the death penalty, and His Majesty will not pursue the matter. You and I can live peacefully."
"Xiaoyue, you don't want our child to lose his mother like this, right?"
"Xiaoyue, wake up. This will do you no good. Just tell the truth."
Looking at Shangguan Yun's earnest advice, Xiaoyue was deeply moved with tears in her eyes.
I didn't expect that the general would be so earnest about me...
She was shaken at this moment.
In desperation, Xiaoyue had no choice but to say helplessly: "General, I'm sorry."
"I actually poisoned you. I'm such a piece of shit! General, will you really forgive me?"
Shangguan Yun nodded, "Xiaoyue, don't talk nonsense."
"I know you have your own difficulties. I won't blame you. As long as you can explain this matter clearly, that's enough."
Xiaoyue sighed, "I'll tell you after that gentleman comes back."
After a while, Lu Yun led his men into the cell.
Shangguan Yun was also quite curious when he saw this. "Eunuch Lu, are you back so soon?"
"Has the case been investigated?"
Lu Yun nodded, "I've checked it out."
"I didn't expect it to be so fast."
Lu Yun was extremely surprised that Eunuch Lu was so decisive and efficient.
It felt like the case became much simpler in his hands.
This... was unexpected.
"How are you doing? Have you convinced your concubine?"
"No, we'll just use torture."
"I don't believe she's so stubborn that she can't say a word."
Shangguan Yun quickly explained: "Eunuch Lu, she has agreed."
"Just wait until you come back and tell me the truth of the matter."
Lu Yun raised his eyebrows. Is this Miss Xiaoyue so easy to talk to?
Perhaps it was the old man Shangguan Yun who put aside his own pride and tried to persuade the young girl.
Bah! Shameless!
At such an old age...
"good."
When the group arrived at the prison, Lu Yun looked at Xiaoyue coldly and said, "Speak."
"The general pleaded for mercy in front of His Majesty for your sake."
"If you don't appreciate my kindness, don't blame me for being rude."
Xiaoyue said calmly, "Eunuch Lu, to be honest, I am Marquis Wenxin's man."
"Actually, I'm originally from the Miao Kingdom. I've known some witchcraft since I was a child, but by chance, I got lost in the Great Zhou."
"Marquis Wenxin has many guards and people from the martial arts world under his command. I am one of them... After the passage of time, I have completely become his man."
"Three years ago, I suddenly received a mission, which was to get close to the general and do everything I could to become his close associate."
"Then wait for an opportunity to act. After all, the general is the most important minister of our Great Zhou."
"Recently, I received new instructions to poison the general and stir up trouble. This is mainly because Marquis Wenxin instigated a rebellion in the four southeastern provinces."
"All this is because he is supporting us from behind!"
After hearing these words, Lu Yun suddenly understood everything about people. No wonder!
But I have to say that Marquis Wenxin is really patient!
It's really like playing the long game to catch a big fish. I waited so long before taking action.
"So I poisoned him, one to sow discord, the other to stop the general from leading his troops to war."
"This way he can do everything he can to make the four southeastern provinces even stronger."
"Really?" Lu Yun frowned. If that's the case, what's going on with General Xiao He?
