Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 574: King Chu Seeks to Succeed

Yangzhou City, Prince Ying’s Palace.

Yuan Qi saw the white bones of Bao Chong with his own eyes, and he looked up, lost his breath, and passed out.

Long Feng and Hu Yun came forward quickly, pressing the Ren Zhong acupoint and regulating the Qi, but seeing that neither worked, Long Feng simply picked up the bowl of still hot sweet tea and poured it directly on Yuan Qi's face.

Yuan Qi screamed and sat up straight, waking up.

"Who the hell scalded me with boiling water?"

"Damn it, who is so brave? Just wait and see how I will chop you to death with one blow, you bastard!"

The furious Yuan Qi roared that he would tear anyone who dared to offend him into pieces and leave no place for a burial.

However, he opened his eyes wide and was able to see the faces of Long Feng and Hu Yun clearly.

Long Feng had not finished pouring out the sweet tea in his hand, with only a little left. Hu Yun, who had not eaten for most of the day and had sharp eyes, snatched the bowl from Long Feng and poured all the sweet tea into his mouth.

Long Feng lowered his head and saw that Hu Yun had drunk all the sweet tea, and he immediately became furious.

"Second brother, we haven't eaten all night, how come you drank all this sweet tea?"

After Long Feng finished speaking, he suddenly felt that he shouldn't say that, and his expression changed immediately.

"Second brother, don't forget the important matter. We came back this time for the matters of the third and fourth brothers."

"Master, the third brother is gone!"

Long Feng cried and tears immediately streamed down his face.

Hu Yun cried loudly: "Master, the third brother is gone!!!"

Yuan Qi covered his chest, his eyes rolled back, and he fell down again.

……

"I don't know what Yuan Qi is like now. Is he so angry that he has lost his mind?"

"Maybe. After all, Bao Chong has followed him for decades. Even if he fainted from anger, I think it's natural."

"That would be really interesting, hahahaha, it would be really interesting."

On the official ship, Li Cunxi, Wu Yanhao and Lu Dayou sat around a square table, eating meat and drinking, looking very happy.

Li Cunxi and the other two became even happier when they thought that Yuan Qi might be so angry that he vomited three liters of blood.

Of course, Yuan Qi’s manipulation is not limited to this.

During the period of searching for Ge Yaqing, Li Cunxi will also implement a plan to defeat the Iron Hand Group one by one.

At the same time, Ge Yaqing was lying on the boat going downstream, feeling the infinite fresh air between the blue sky and green water, and couldn't help shaking his head.

Suddenly, the boat shook violently, and the voice of a middle-aged man was heard.

"Miss?"

Aunt Yun looked cold and asked, "You are so brave to bring my sister outside."

"Miss, if you don't come out, won't you have to marry Deng Tong?"

"Humph, that's no reason for you to follow her around. You should know that my sword can easily cut off your head!"

Yun Gu frowned, glanced at Ge Yaqing who had just gotten up, and then became much gentler.

"Finally I found you. Something big has happened. You must follow me for the next period of time."

"Sister, what is going on?"

"It's hard to explain this matter. I can't finish it in a short time. Come with me. I will tell you slowly after I go back!"

Ge Yaqing looked up in confusion, and just in time saw three small boats parked on the water in front of him, with Yun Gu's men watching them covetously.

"Okay, sis, let's go."

……

Luoyang, the capital of the gods.

Wu Zetian sat sideways on the dragon bed, looking at Wu Sansi below with an expressionless face.

"What's wrong, Sansi, you don't come to see me often."

"It's a strange day today, but is there anything you want to tell me?"

Wu Sansi forced a smile.

"Your Majesty, I came here this time to inquire about the latest situation of the Han Canal boat capsizing case."

"Huaiyang is short of salt, which has greatly affected the lives of the people. As the right prime minister of Wenchang, how dare I not work hard for it."

"Therefore, I have come here specifically to inquire about the latest situation of the Han Canal boat capsizing case."

Wu Sansi's words sounded nice.

In fact, he also harbors evil intentions.

One of his retainers had been out for a long time and had not come back to look for him.

The matter that the retainer was involved in was too serious, so he had to come to Wu Zetian to inquire about the news. Otherwise, if something happened, he would be in danger of dying.

It's a pity that Wu Sansi's little trick had been completely seen through by Wu Zetian.

"In the past, the King of Zhou had nine tripods, and the King of Chu asked about them."

"The intention is not to seize the tripod of the King of Zhou, but to seize the whole world!"

"He used the fake Hangou case to inquire about the whereabouts of the Iron Hand Group. He is treacherous and his heart deserves death!"

Wu Zetian did not show her emotions, but her tone fully demonstrated her mood at the moment.

She is not happy!

Wu Sansi was originally happy about his intelligence, but when he saw that Wu Zetian had exposed his intelligence in just a few words, he immediately got up from his seat and knelt down.

"I am guilty, I deserve to die!"

"But, no matter what, I don't know the whereabouts of the Iron Hand Group!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty just wants to ask about Li Cunxi's whereabouts."

Wu Zetian frowned and said, "Li Cunxi has been ordered to investigate the case. He will return to Luoyang as soon as the canal in the Huaiyang area is open for transportation. Besides, his whereabouts have nothing to do with you."

"Yes, yes, I deserve to die."

Wu Sansi knew at this moment that his retainer was most likely captured by Wu Zetian.

Moreover, under the interrogation of the Internal Guard, his retainer must have confessed a lot of information that was unfavorable to him.

But Wu Zetian has not touched him until now.

The meaning is already obvious.

He is the heir to the throne that Wu Zetian values ​​most!

Otherwise, if an ordinary person asked about such things and was caught with such a serious handle, even if he was beheaded ten times, it would not be enough!

"Think carefully, you are the person I value most, you need to show some courage and don't embarrass yourself."

"I understand. I will definitely not let your majesty down."

"I hope you will never do something like paying two hundred thousand taels of silver to buy your life again."

"Yes, I know I was wrong."

"Since you paid to buy Li Cunxi's life, do you know where the Iron Hand Group is?"

"This, I only know the general idea. According to rumors in the martial arts world, the Iron Hand Group is entrenched in the Yangzhou area. These people are tyrannical and there are many masters among them. Looking at the entire Yangzhou, no one can match them."

"That is to say, you don't know who they are exactly?"

Wu Sansi was sweating profusely: "Your Majesty, I really don't know. If I knew, I would never dare to deceive Your Majesty even if I had the courage of a bear or a leopard..."

"Well, since you said so, I will trust you once again. The Han Canal boat capsizing incident has happened several times, and it is possible that the Iron Hand Group is interfering. I do not intend to let these desperate criminals go."

Wu Zetian frowned, and her disgust for the Iron Hand Group reached its peak.

This Iron Hand Group is even more abominable than the Nineteen Thieves of Baihelin back then.

The Nineteen Thieves of Baihelin were only nineteen people after all, while no one knew how many vicious thugs there were in the Iron Hand Group.

In addition to the Han Canal boat capsizing case, although official salt was still circulating in the Huaiyang area, anyone could see the clues.
