Chapter 316: Catching the Murderer



Xiao Jingzhou's words caused an uproar among the crowd.

The gate of the government office was closed, and the people present were all military generals.

They looked at each other, then clenched the knives in their hands and pointed them at the Zheng father and son.

Lu Feng hurried out and heard what Xiao Jingzhou said.

He looked at Zheng Shuyu and Zheng Guangzong with disbelief.

Lu Feng said in a hoarse voice: "Mrs. Gu was worried that the child would be cold, so she sent new clothes."

"Master Gu even prescribed medicine for him, but I didn't expect him to be such an ungrateful person!"

He snatched the soldier's knife and was about to chop at Zheng Guangzong.

"don't want!"

Zheng Shuyu was held by two soldiers and struggled desperately to protect Zheng Guangzong.

...

...

After hearing what Xiao Jingzhou said, the defense line in his heart suddenly collapsed.

But the person in front of him was his son.

In a hurry, he subconsciously wanted to protect Zheng Guangzong.

Zheng Guangzong showed no fear at all and showed a sinister smile that was not suitable for a child.

With a "clang" sound, the knife in Lu Feng's hand was knocked away.

Lu Chen rushed to him and said, "Brother, don't be impulsive!"

"Your Highness will make the final decision on everything."

After hearing this, Lu Feng suddenly calmed down.

He clenched the knife in his hand, but ultimately did nothing and was pulled away by Lu Chen like a puppet.

Lu Fenggang was towed away.

Zheng Guangzong's tears, like beads that had broken off a string, kept falling down his cheeks.

"Dad, they're going to kill me!"

"I'm so scared, help me!"

Zheng Guangzong's eyes turned red from crying, and his sobs sounded like he had suffered a great injustice.

"Guangzong, don't be afraid."

"Your Highness will not wrongly accuse a good person."

Zheng Shuyu comforted his son and turned to look at Xiao Jingzhou.

"Your Highness, this matter is too strange and full of doubts."

"My son is still young, only ten years old, how could he assassinate General Gu?"

A ten-year-old boy assassinated a first-rank general.

No matter how people guess, they will never put the two together.

Zheng Shuyu's words were also what everyone present wanted to find out.

Xiao Jingzhou said calmly: "I won't cry until I see the coffin."

"I'll give you a chance to explain!"

"Take him to the auditorium."

As the group walked into the auditorium, the door was closed.

The originally dim auditorium was decorated with white banners everywhere, and Zheng Guangzong couldn't help but shrink his neck.

Soon, two servants from the Gu family carried a wooden box and placed it in front of everyone.

Xiao Jingzhou said coldly: "Zheng Guangzong, do you remember this box?"

Zheng Guangzong clenched his teeth and shook his head vigorously.

"I don't know. I haven't seen it."

Just when everyone was confused.

Qian Wuyou walked to the box, bent down, opened the box and took out the items.

But he found Qian Xianglei sleeping in the box.

Qian Wuyou carried the person out of the box.

Qian Xianglei held a dagger in his hand and stabbed Qian Wuyou at an extremely fast speed.

The seriously injured Qian Wuyou loosened his grip, and Lu Chen quickly snatched the child and walked out the door.

When the people present saw this scene, they instantly understood the cause and effect.

"Is it really this child?"

"Only ten years old! What a vicious heart!"

"Who says it's not true? It's a blessing for Zheng to have such a son."

Lu Chen put the child down and said loudly: "General Gu's knife wound was not fatal.

But it was because the knife was poisoned that no medicine could cure him and he died an untimely death. ”

He looked at Zheng Shuyu: "Master Zheng, you still don't believe it?"

Zheng Shuyu's face turned pale.

He looked at Gu Zhenbei's pale face and shiny purple lips. He looked at Zheng Guangzong again, and his heart sank.

Zheng Shuyu opened his mouth: "I..."

He just couldn't say the following words.

Zheng Guangzong noticed that his father was wavering and started crying again.

"Dad, it really wasn't me."

"They wronged me!"

Yang Jin lost his patience and wanted to beat the brat to death.

He said, "The evidence is irrefutable, but you still don't admit it, right?"

"OK!"

He took out the bloody knife from a box beside him.

“This dagger was made by a skilled craftsman. Zhiyi City cannot produce such an exquisite knife.

Besides, it has your fingerprints and DNA that only gods can detect. ”

Yang Jin didn't know if it was right or not. He looked at Lu Chen from the side and asked in a low voice, "Is this the name, right?"

Lu Chen covered his forehead and nodded vigorously.

"You made up lies and put the blame on me, I don't admit it." Zheng Guangzong refused to admit it and even began to struggle hard.

His strength is really insignificant compared to those who are fighting on the battlefield with heavy swords in their hands.

Yang Jin didn't waste any words: "You don't admit it, right?"

"Okay, I'll cut a knife in your stomach and let you taste the poison."

Zheng Guangzong struggled and broke into a sweat.

When he saw the knife in Yang Jin's hand, his face turned pale instantly.

Zheng Guangzong saw with his own eyes the symptoms Gu Zhenbei suffered after being poisoned, which were truly terrifying.

He opened his eyes wide: "Don't come over here!"

"The knife is poisoned."

"Mom said, I'll be fine as long as Dad is here, you don't dare to kill me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zheng Shuyu's breathing stagnated and the shock on his face was no less than that of seeing a dead person resurrected.

Everyone present was indignant for Gu Zhenbei.

"At such a young age, he has a vicious mind."

"I just pretended to be pitiful, but I was really fooled by him."

"General Gu was a great hero, but I didn't expect that he would die at the hands of a child."

Yang Jin did not forget that the disguised servant was also an accomplice.

He lifted the man's face and looked at him with a frown.

It looked familiar, but he had no other impression.

"Wu Shili?"

The voice came from behind, sharp and thin, as if the voice was broken by shock.

Hou Si walked in front of the crowd and bowed to Xiao Jingzhou.

"Your Highness, this person is a colleague of mine."

"We walked together...to Zhiyi City."

Lu Chen was shocked and said, "When we passed Guanshan Road, wasn't his brother pulled by Zhang Da to block the falling rocks?

If it weren't for His Highness, he would have starved to death along the way.

Why do you still help the bad guys to do evil? ”

Wu Shili said coldly: "I have nothing to say about falling into your hands. I can only blame my bad luck."

"Zhang Da is just a distant relative of Lord Zhang, and a godparent adopted by our ancestors. We have no blood relationship at all.

If he can make a career for himself, why can't I?

If Zhang Da didn't have this relationship, my brother wouldn't have died in vain. He was the bastard who blocked the falling rubble. ”

Wu Shili seemed to be very happy and a ferocious smile appeared on his face.

"Now the deposed crown prince and Your Majesty are both like sons and fathers. You are following him. Do you also want to rebel?"

Xiao Jingzhou cleared out the people early in the morning, and those present were all his confidants.

Only Zheng Shuyu did not know the inside story of the deposed crown prince.

In less than an hour, Zheng Shuyu felt that the situation was turning upside down and he almost couldn't stand.

Fortunately, there were two people holding him up, so he did not fall to the ground.

Xiao Jingzhou glanced at Wu Shili: "You don't repent."

"Take him away and torture him severely.

I want him to tell me everything he knows. ”

When Wu Shili was pressed down, he was still laughing arrogantly.

"I completed the mission and killed Gu Zhenbei.

The family in Beijing will definitely live a life of luxury. ”

“Not a loss!”

Wu Shili was taken away, and only those who knew the truth were left in the auditorium.

Xiao Jingzhou said calmly: "Master Zheng, this is your biological son."

"How should you deal with him?"

Zheng Shuyu lowered his eyes, feeling hopeless.

"This boy has committed a serious crime. Your Highness will punish him at your will!"
