    (ps: It's the end of the month, ask for the last monthly pass in August.)

    Full of curiosity, he went up to the side of Nule Peak, tossed and tossed for a long time, and when he descended to the foot of Nule Peak full of hope, Wang Jing, the guard of the Nule Peak Camp, stopped Fatty Lu, Liu Xuanchu and Wang Shirong.  Seeing the happy smiles on the faces of Fatty Lu and the three of them, Wang Jing couldn't help asking curiously: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Wang, Brother Lu, what were you doing on the mountain just now? Why did we hear a loud noise at the bottom of the mountain just now? What happened on the mountain?"  What's wrong?"

    "It's nothing, we are experimenting with a new type of gunpowder, and we plan to dedicate it to the prince for firecrackers and fireworks during the New Year." Fatty Lu explained vaguely, and then said: "Second brother Wang, you must explain this to the following, so that they don't go out blind  It is said that the road up the mountain must be sealed off, and outsiders are absolutely not allowed to go up the mountain, and craftsmen are not allowed to go out at will, and the army will directly provide what they want.¡±

    "Of course, the prince has issued a strict order, and the second brother doesn't dare to play around with his own head." Wang Jing nodded, and said: "Just like just now, the prince sent an emergency messenger from Kunming, saying that he would meet immediately.  Seeing you, because I didn¡¯t expect you to happen to be on Nule Peak Mountain, and he didn¡¯t bring the prince¡¯s warrant to allow him to go up the mountain, so I didn¡¯t dare to let him in, I just asked him to wait outside the camp temporarily.¡±

    "The prince sent an emergency messenger? Do you want to see us immediately?" Fatty Lu, Liu Xuanchu and Wang Shirong were all taken aback.  People came here from Kunming.  Thinking of this, Fatty Lu and the others hurriedly said together: "Quickly, lead us to the prince's messenger."

    Hastily came to the gate of the Nule Peak camp to have a look, and what surprised Liu Xuanchu, Wang Shirong and others was that the messenger turned out to be Fang Xueshi, the grandson of Fang Yizao, Minister of Rites of the Chongzhen Dynasty, and the son of Fang Guangchen, Wu Sangui's confidant!  If Wu Sangui or Fang Guangchen sent such a person as a messenger, there was no doubt that something serious would happen.  Liu Xuanchu and the others stepped forward to ask, and sure enough, it was the earth-shattering news in the capital¡ª¡ªWu Liuyi, the nemesis of the Ao Party and one of the most important figures of the Ma Party, died of a sudden illness!

    "Are you sure about the cause of death?" Hearing the news, Fatty Lu, Liu Xuanchu, and Wang Shirong asked in unison without batting an eyelid, "Did they die suddenly from a sudden illness? Or were they slaughtered? They faked a sudden illness."  And the illusion of death?!"

    "We don't know the specific situation, but my father thinks that Wu Junmen is most likely to die in the hands of Prime Minister Ao." Fang Xueshi answered honestly, untied the package on his back, and said, "My father asked me to collect the  I copied all the information and brought it here for your reference. In addition, the prince asked Mr. Mao Xia and Mr. Liangchen to go back to Kunming as soon as possible, and said that if you can spare the time, Mr. Lu, you can also go back to Kunming to help  The prince will analyze the situation in the capital and formulate countermeasures."

    "Okay, it's getting late now. Let's pack up tonight and return to Kunming tomorrow." Liu Xuanchu nodded, then turned to Fatty Lu and said, "Yifeng, pack up as well, and prepare to go to Kunming with us secretly. What are you good at?"  Analyzing intelligence, you will definitely be able to use your strengths at that time."

    "Student obeys." Fatty Lu nodded, and said again: "Since Brother Xueshi has brought all the collected information, I will analyze it overnight when I return to Qujing, and try to get a clue before arriving in Kunming."

    Accompanying Liu Xuanchu and the others back to Qujing in a hurry, Fatty Lu told Xiao Erlang and the others to prepare luggage, dry food and horses.  Among the various information on the June 1 violent death case, carefully study and find various useful clues, and analyze the meaning.  But it's a pity that because the case involved a lot, Xiao Mazi and Aobai both intentionally or unintentionally joined forces to block the news, so Yang Qilong, the intelligence chief of the Pingxi Palace in the capital, still didn't collect much useful information even though he was instructed by Fatty Lu  , Most of the content is trivial. Fatty Lu researched and studied, but he still didn't find much accurate information.

    First of all, the unlucky Wu Liuyi hung up around the afternoon of October 19, Kang Mazi Seven Years.  The arrow poison wood venom can poison people to death and cause the illusion of death due to heart paralysis. Moreover, this poison is infected through blood, and the wound will have obvious signs of redness and swelling, which is very easy to identify.

    But it is a pity that the autopsy results of the unlucky Wu Liuyi were tightly sealed. Neither Wu Yingxiong nor Yang Qilong could confirm whether there was such a wound on his body. Naturally, Fatty Lu could not judge whether Wu Liuyi died of  Curare poisoning.

    Second, in the first six days before Wu Liuyi's death, Kong Sizhen, who was downgraded to a third-class guard due to a crime, was decided by Xiao Mazi to stay in the capital temporarily and work in the Ministry of Internal Affairs."After speaking, Wang Shirong suddenly came back to his senses and asked: "Lord Lu, isn't it right?"  Last time when you went back to Kunming to get married, Oboi sent a secret envoy to ask for an alliance with the prince, but you were against it, and you urged the prince to wait and see, and make a promise with Oboi?  "

    "That's right, I was going to ask you about this too." Liu Xuanchu also challenged the students, and asked with a smile: "Yifeng, that's not what you said last time when you explained to me that you opposed the lord's direct alliance with Obai  I remember you said at the time that you were afraid that after Oboi or Emperor Mazi won, they would take gentle measures against the prince, causing our prince to continue to muddle along and lose his ambition."

    "Master, please forgive me, and Mr. Liangchen please forgive me." Fatty Lu was a little embarrassed, and said with a slightly red face: "Last time in Kunming, I really wanted to persuade the prince to form an alliance with Obai, but I saw that the prince  He was so indecisive that he didn't dare to make up his mind to form an alliance with Oboi, so he made up that kind of nonsense to please the prince and deceive the trust of the prince. Later, Mr. Liangchen, you called me short-sighted, and the student was afraid that your teacher would be angry.  If you care about the students again, you will talk hard and forcefully, and make up your teacher's favor, and make up later nonsense to please your teacher. If the student is convicted, please be punished by your teacher and good minister."

    "Mr. Maoya, what kind of person is your student?" Wang Shirong was furious, and turned to Liu Xuanchu and asked, "Talking about people when you see people, talking nonsense when you see ghosts, is it an oiled glass marble?"

    "It's not just an oiled glazed marble? It's also an oiled fat loach!" Liu Xuanchu smiled instead of anger, and said, "But it doesn't matter, since Yifeng's nonsense can fool you and me, you still believe it, let alone us  Your lord? With his support when we return to Kunming this time, our chances of success will be greatly increased."  Read!) (Remember this site URL: www.hlnovel.com
