I am the seventeenth prince

Chapter 139 Chapter 142 The Invisible Truth (4 More)
Near dusk, the sun is setting.

Zongren Mansion.

Li Ye walked out from the door.

The punishment of kneeling in the clan's mansion was neither painful nor itchy, it was only stipulated that he should kneel for a month, but he was not required to live in the clan's mansion. This punishment, anyone with a discerning eye could tell it was an act.

At this time, there was a headhunting team headed by the "white-headed detective" outside the door, and its members included the Xuanjing Division under the jurisdiction of Dali Temple and the Division of the Criminal Ministry under the name of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. These people all have different backgrounds.

The death of Zheng Minggong was obviously a hot potato, and none of the chief officials of the government office wanted to take over, so they immediately pushed Diezhuang, an institution directly under the emperor in name, as the head.

If it's a misfortune, Die Zhuang will lose it.

If it works, this small team has their people, and they can find a way to take over at any time.

It was a good calculation.

"Your Highness, please move away. I follow His Majesty's order for the death of Doctor Zheng. Please cooperate with me. There are some things that need to be clarified."

Zhuang Fei stepped forward.

In fact, he also knows it well.

Zheng Minggong's death, the water here is very deep.

In particular, the Zheng family told him that Li Ye had a great hatred with the Zheng family, but they did not express any hatred. From the attitude of the Zheng family, a large number of people believed that Li Ye was inseparable from Zheng Minggong's death.

In addition, Li Ye also put away the unknown canvas covering Zheng Minggong's body, which was weird.

For this move, there is no way for anyone not to use their wild imagination.

If it's just like this, then it's fine, but on the second day after Zheng Minggong's death, Zheng Huang's second-rank wife came to visit Li Ye.

unreasonable.

Unreasonable everywhere.

It was as if an invisible hand was manipulating everything, and there were even other families working in secret.

"Row."

As soon as Li Ye finished speaking, poisoned arrows were shot from the eaves in the distance, heading directly towards him.

"Be careful."

Zhuang Fei drew his knife and slashed fiercely, cutting off the arrow that gave him a great crisis. There was a gap where the knife cut off the arrow, and another arrow with a faint blue luster passed by his side, making him He was startled.

In the blind spot of his vision, a figure flickered from the corner of his eyes, which was very mysterious.

Bang bang clang clang.

At the same time, Zhuang Fei saw Li Ye's palm shaking up and down, and a strange strong wind appeared in Li Ye's palm.

Breaking sound.

Li Ye didn't touch the arrow, so he used skillful force with his backhand to return the arrow.

The arrow was faster than when it came, and it pierced the shoulder of the fleeing man, causing the thief to let out a scream and fall from the air.

"It's so vicious, hurry up and send someone to catch that thief."

Zhuang Fei glanced at the unfortunate person who was shot by the arrow, he was already dead, and there were a few swollen blood vessels on his face.

Poisoned to death.

He squatted down, slid the simple knife in his hand towards the poisoned arrow on the corpse, and pulled the arrow out with his true energy. Before he could get close, he smelled a pungent smell, and he quickly covered his nose and mouth with his sleeve .

just in case.

"Zheng, do you think it was the Zheng family's work?" Li Ye walked up to Zhuang Fei, looked at the handwriting on the arrow, and said.

Zhuang Fei couldn't answer.

Think differently.

Because in Yujing City, apart from the Zheng family, for example, the Huang family who is married to the Zheng family and other powerful families want to make the Zheng family quarrel with the royal family, and even want to take this opportunity to kill Li Ye, which is beneficial to the powerful families in Yujing.

When Li Ye saw Zhuang Fei with a serious expression, he didn't necessarily want to know Zhuang Fei's answer.

"Your Highness, I have been caught."

Xiangyu walked quickly, and when she saw that Li Ye was safe, she breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice.

Li Ye closed his head.

"Let's go, detective, I'll trouble you to lead the way when the time comes. I've heard about Diezhuang for a long time, but I haven't had a chance to go there. I'll stop by Diezhuang tonight. Don't worry, I'm always happy to help others. Ask and answer."

Zhuang Fei looked at Li Ye who got into the carriage, wondering what he meant by what he said.

"Bring him here, don't let him stay with Linghua for a long time, if she planted a shadow of his heart, then I will give Linghua a helper, go quickly."

Li Ye stood on the carriage, turned his head and gave Xiangyu instructions.

Li Ye, who was sitting in the carriage, thought about seeing the lettering of the arrow before, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Zheng family.

This action could not have been arranged by the Zheng family, but that party didn't know it.

As he expected, the streets and alleys will be full of rumors and rumors tomorrow, targeting the Zheng family for revenge, just like the rumors of the previous few days.

It is said that Li Ye is the murderer.

Some said that Zheng Minggong's death was the royal family's desire to eradicate the Zheng family, and others said it was a conspiracy by the enemy to overthrow the Yu Dynasty and cause turmoil in the rear of the Yu Dynasty, which has now opened up three battlefields.

Each has its own reasons.

What you say is clear and logical, but the people who listen to it are in a mess.

It's hard to tell the truth from the fake.

Even if Li Ye's guess was Li Yuan's arrangement, he still felt somewhat suspicious in his heart, not 100% sure.

But at least Li Yuan has this suspicion and motivation.

Not long after, a soap-clothed headhunter ran over from the street and brought a person disguised as a poisoned civilian. Zhuang Fei also observed the information he wanted on these people.

"Send someone to put the dead brother in a good place, and record all these things. Bring this body back to the village and let the villager's assistant examine it."

he commanded.

Then he looked at the busy people and waved his hands.

The carriage turns.

Under Zhuang Fei's guidance, he came to Diezhuang's office in Yujing City.

Inside the hall.

"Your Highness, please."

Zhuang Fei raised his hand to signal the seat.

Walking to the seat, Li Ye rested his left hand on the handle of the chair, resting his chin on his palm, and sat down casually.

"If you want to know anything, just ask."

The head-hunters representing various organizations were silent, as if they didn't want to know anything.

Zhuang Fei didn't find it strange when he saw this, it was just a routine.

Unless there is real evidence, it would be useless for Li Ye to be questioned.

But in the imperial court, the proper order must go on, and Diezhuang was ordered by Li Yuan to find out the truth, but in his position, he knew that even if it was related to Li Ye, That cannot be made public.

Li Ye's talent and potential in martial arts, Monkey Ancestor's value is Li Ye's amulet.

"Your Highness, I wonder if the canvas has anything to do with the death of the counselor?"

"What does the covering canvas matter? It's just an ordinary piece of canvas, and I accidentally lost it last night. I don't know where to throw it."

People sitting or standing all looked at each other in dismay, listening to nonsense conversations without grasping the point at all.

A meaningless inquiry, not only did not find any evidence, but it was even more confusing.

Li Ye's intentional concealment made it even harder for people from other families to see the truth shrouded in mist.

Everyone dispersed.

The policeman in soap clothes walked to Zhuang Fei's side and whispered something.

"Your Highness, the person you brought is already in the front hall, but someone clamored to follow him, don't you know?"

Zhuang Fei said.

The noisy person he was talking about was Linghua.

"It's here, then don't worry about her, let her make trouble, anyway, she knows how to measure, let someone bring you in, and we will go to Diezhuang together."

A soap-coated headman brought in a tray on which lay many pieces of cut black cloth.

"Your Highness, Diezhuang is secret, I wonder if it is possible?"

Zhuang Fei said in a difficult way.

"Do you think it's possible?" Li Ye looked coldly at the black cloth on the tray.

Zhuang Fei waved his hand. He walked to the decorative wooden stand and twisted the vial.

There was a click.

The ground in the hall revealed a dark passage, emitting dim light.
