571 No progress
When he saw Zhu Xiuyuan, he showed no expression on his face, lowered his head and left quickly.
Zhu Xiuyuan watched him off for a while. Needless to say, after Li Jiye woke up, he must have understood what happened in the court today. The deputy envoy of Liang State went too far, so Li Jiye reprimanded him.
Zhu Xiuyuan ignored him and walked into Li Jiye's ward under the leadership of his servants.
"Brother Li!"
Zhu Xiuyuan put his hands forward, looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "Brother Li has rested for most of the day, and his complexion is much better. Brother Li wakes up, and I feel relieved."
"Brother Zhu!" Li Jiye was leaning against the edge of the bed. He cupped his hands and squeezed out a smile: "I already know what happened in the court today."
"Those assassins came here for me. Not only did they almost assassinate Brother Zhu, but they also caused Brother Zhu to be framed in court... Don't worry, Brother Zhu, I have already severely reprimanded the deputy envoy!"
Li Jiye was still a little weak. He was half-sitting on the couch, and his blood was rising. This was caused by the deputy envoy of Liang Guo.
"Hey, what happened today... it's hard to describe in words, it's all over. Now I'm trying my best to hunt down the assassins! These assassins are so arrogant, I must catch them!"
"Brother, what's the progress now?"
Li Qingnu, who was serving tea and water to Li Jiye personally, asked.
And poured a cup of tea for Zhu Xiuyuan.
Zhu Xiuyuan stood up and caught it with both hands. He recalled it, avoided those disgusting things, and informed them of the results obtained today one by one.
Zhu Xiuyuan felt very relaxed after learning from Kou Wanwan that her men had targeted the assassin.
But he couldn't reveal this to Li Jiye and Li Qingnu. He just asked them to rest assured that he would be able to catch the assassins within three days.
After talking about the assassins, Zhu Xiuyuan chatted with Li Jiye about other things. Half an hour later, Zhu Xiuyuan stood up and left.
"Brother Zhu!" Li Jiye suddenly stopped Zhu Xiuyuan, who was turning around.
"Brother Li, what's the matter?"
"The assassination has nothing to do with Brother Zhu. Please rest assured, Brother Zhu. No matter what the outcome is after three days, I will not harm Brother Zhu and Ling Taishan!"
These words sounded consistent with what Li Qingnu said at the palace gate.
However... Zhu Xiuyuan just said it many times that he would be able to catch the assassin. It seemed that they didn't listen. They probably thought Zhu Xiuyuan was trying to comfort them...
Zhu Xiuyuan did not criticize him, just bowed his hands and thanked him, then left the post house and returned to Jiangcheng Bofu again.
It's getting dark.
But Dong Cheng hasn't come back yet.
Still working on the assassination case outside.
So at the dinner table, there were Zhu Xiuyuan, Dong Shuzhen and Dong Shuyu.
After meal.
The three of them did not go back to rest, and were waiting in the flower hall... Zhu Xiuyuan felt a little guilty. He was the person involved in this matter, but in the end he was sitting around at home...
It was very late that Dong Cheng came back with his tired body. According to him, after working hard for so long, there was not much progress...
Dong Shuzhen and Dong Shuyu were not in high spirits and were worried about this matter.
Indeed, if this matter cannot be handled properly, it will leave many hidden dangers for Jiangcheng Bofu.
Zhu Xiuyuan sighed. He couldn't tell them the news about Kou Wanwan yet, so he had to comfort them with a few words, and then they went back to rest.
A night of silence.
The second day.
Martial law is still in place in the capital, the situation is unclear, and people are afraid to leave their homes.
Zhu Xiuyuan didn't rest any longer and joined Dong Cheng, Shao Sikou and the others to run around investigating the case.
However, a whole day passed, and checking like this was like looking for a needle in a haystack, but there was still no result at all.
In a blink of an eye, time came to the third day.
Today is the last day of the three-day period.
The civil and military officials of the dynasty, Emperor Chen in the palace, and even the people of the city were all waiting, hoping, and hoping that the final result would be beneficial to them.
Although the entire capital seemed calm on the surface, there was no one in the streets and alleys, which was in sharp contrast to the Shangyuan Festival a few days ago.
But privately, there is already an undercurrent surging, and all forces are waiting for the opportunity.
Of course, the focus of all eyes is the case of this assassination.
Today is the last day. If Zhu Xiuyuan cannot solve the case today, the situation in the capital will undergo unknown changes...
Zhu Xiuyuan felt quite calm. Kou Wanwan had also sent several messages through the notes sent by Yan Dashan.
The latest time, the note said that we should be able to take action in the evening today.
Please wish Xiuyuan good preparations.
He also told Zhu Xiuyuan exactly where the assassins were staying.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy and to prevent the news from leaking, Zhu Xiuyuan threw the notes into the brazier and burned them after reading them.
Just wait for tonight's evening to send out troops and wipe out the nest of assassins in one fell swoop!
It's the end of Shen Shi and the beginning of You Shi, about five o'clock in the afternoon.
Runzhou government office.
At Zhu Xiuyuan's request, Dong Cheng, Shaosi Kou, as well as the police officers from Runzhou Government Office and the police officers from the Criminal and Prison Department all returned to Runzhou Government Office to rest.
The reason is that everyone is tired after a busy day, and it is almost time for dinner. It is better to go back to the government office and eat a delicious meal sent by Dong Yulou.
It’s not too late to recharge your batteries and continue your busy schedule.
In fact, Zhu Xiuyuan was preparing for the action after evening.
By gathering everyone in the government office, firstly, they can take a rest, and secondly, they can gather manpower.
Dong Cheng, Shao Si Kou and the police officers readily agreed, and everyone sat on the floor in the government office lobby, shaking their legs and legs after walking all day, waiting for the delicious food to be delivered.
Zhu Xiuyuan took some time out, found an excuse, and temporarily left the government office lobby. In a relatively private place, he gave some instructions to Yan Dashan:
"Da Shan, you go and make a trip yourself. First go to Dong Yulou to ask for the master and the government office. Tell him that I have clues about the assassin and ask him to help!"
Zhu Xiuyuan gritted his teeth secretly and waited for three days before he was finally able to take action!
In the past three days, although the old beggar also lived in Dong Yulou, the assassins were still absconding. He had never been drunk in order to help Zhu Xiuyuan capture those assassins.
"I know my benefactor!"
Yan Dashan's eyes were as bright as a torch, he cupped his hands, turned around and left.
Yan Dashan was the only one who knew that Kou Wanwan's men were following the assassin, because the notes conveying the news all passed through Yan Dashan's hands.
Regarding this matter, Zhu Xiuyuan did not hide it from him.
The mouth of Yan Dashan is also very tight, so it is impossible to publicize it everywhere like a loudspeaker.
"Hold on!"
Zhu Xiuyuan waved his hand and suddenly remembered something.
"My dear benefactor, please give me your instructions?"
"After inviting Master and his family, you go to the post house again and say that there has been a major breakthrough in the case. Please invite Princess Anle and Prince Qian to come together to witness."
Chapter completed!
