Chapter 1959

Jin Liren, said by the bodyguards, is the Deputy General of lingguanning in the state of Sichuan. He is also the second in charge of the palace bodyguard. His military rank is not very high, but he has a high position and weight, which directly controls the safety of the palace.

After hearing the bodyguard's words, Xiao Xiang asked suspiciously, "did general Jin explain why he left the palace?"

The bodyguard shook his head and said, "general Jin didn't say that, and the villain did not dare to ask more questions."

"Is he alone?" Xiao Xiang asked casually.

"No," the bodyguard faltered.

Xiao Xiang looked at him strangely and asked, "isn't he alone? How many people did he take out of the palace? "

"This," stammered the guard, "the villain didn't see it clearly."

Xiao Xiang laughed and said, "how did you become the bodyguard of the east gate? Can't you see how many people leave the palace? "

"Princess of highness does not know, is not a careless person careless, but with the General Kim gong out of the palace too many brothers, no less than four or five hundred people, the specific number, the villain really did not have time to carefully count, so I dare not to lie in front of his Royal Highness."

4、 Five hundred? Hearing this, Xiao Xiang and Ren Fang were both shocked. Were not the four or five hundred people the number of gangsters that night?

At this time, Ren Fang's heart suddenly quickened. He suddenly opened his mouth and asked in a quick voice, "when did general Jin leave the palace? When did you go back to the palace? Will the number of people change when they return to the palace? "

Let a breath to ask a few questions, also asked the bodyguard dizzy brain distension. After thinking for a long time, Fang said, "general Jin came to the palace at the moment of Zishi, and returned to the palace when the sky was near ugly. I can't remember whether the number of people had changed. However, general Jin took three carriages back to the palace. As it was the team led by general Jin, we did not dare to search the carriages."

After hearing this, Ren Fang froze. After a long time, he turned his head and looked at Xiao Xiang silently. If calculated according to the time point, then Jin Liren's time of leaving and returning to the palace coincides with the time when his family was kidnapped.

In addition, when the bandits were "sealed up", they were in order and strictly prohibited in military discipline. They were no different from the regular army. No army was more regular than the royal guards.

There is also a very important clue. When Jin Liren left the palace, he did not bring a carriage with him, but when he returned to the palace, he brought three carriages, enough to hold his family members who had been kidnapped.

But he didn't understand that Jin Liren was an assistant general in charge of the royal palace guards. His official position and position were extraordinary. How could he take such a big risk to kidnap his family? It's amazing that he and I have no injustice before and no hatred after him.

He looked at Xiao Xiang and asked her for her opinion.

At this time, Xiao Xiang is also at a loss. Is it really related to Jin Liren?

She was silent for a long time and said to the bodyguard, "you go back first. I can't mention anything about you in this palace today. If there's a little wind coming out, I want your head. Do you understand?"

The bodyguard was so frightened that he didn't dare to say half a word. He nodded and said, "yes, yes, yes! Even if the villain is killed, the villain will not reveal a word. "

"Yes Xiao Xiang nodded and waved to him. The captain of the bodyguard hissed, wiped the sweat, and then saluted Xiao Xiang and Ren Fang, and then turned away.

After he left, Ren Fang couldn't wait to ask, "princess, does the kidnapping of his family really have something to do with general Jin?"

Xiao Xiang shook his head slowly and said, "I'm not sure now. After all, we have no evidence." With these words, she turned back to the accompanying bodyguard and said, "put the driver, this palace wants to return to the mansion."

Seeing that Xiao Xiang didn't intend to pursue him any more, Ren Fang was in a hurry. He asked in a coagulative voice, "why did the princess stop investigating all of a sudden? But because it is related to general Jin, the princess does not intend to pursue it any more? "

Ren felt relieved to know that Du Ming, such as Lang Zhong Ling Guan Ning and vice general Jin Liren, were close ministers of the royal family. They were too close to the royal family. Otherwise, they would not be able to sit in this position. He was really worried that Xiao Xiang would back down and stop interfering.

Xiao Xiang laughed at Ren Fang and said, "general Ren, don't worry. Since this palace has said to help you, it will help you to the end. However, it has been known that this matter may have something to do with general Jin. We can't continue to investigate in the palace. We have to change people to check it."

see light suddenly fraught with grim possibilities. At the same time, he scolded himself for being confused. Jin Liren is a deputy of the palace guard. He also has many eyes in the palace. If he is personally investigated by Xiao Xiang, his goal is too big. He will surely not hide Jin Liren. If he is aware of his own, his family will be too scared.

"The princess intends to"

"come out of the palace again!" Xiao Xiang nods to Ren Fang and leaves quickly. Ren Fang answered, and quickly followed him.

Ren Fang followed Xiao Xiang back to the princess's house, did not leave, has been waiting for news.

Xiao Xiang was very relaxed. She seemed to have a plan in mind. In the afternoon, she went back to her bedroom and had a sleep. At night, Xiao Xiang's subordinates brought back a person, a palace guard.This man was taken directly into the dungeon of Princess mansion. The dungeon of Princess mansion is not very large and its location is not hidden. At first, Ren Fang's subordinates searched here. The bodyguard was dressed in disorder and was black and blue. It was obvious that there had been a fight before he was taken to the princess's house. At this time, he was tied to the wooden frame in the dungeon, and his eyes were covered with thick black cloth. Although it has become a fish on the board, his mouth has not been idle, and he kept shouting: "who are you? Why arrest me? Do you know who Laozi is? Lao Tzu is the royal palace guard. If you let me go, I can still save you a dog's life. If you dare to touch a hair of Laozi, I will tear you to pieces and bruise your bones and ashes. "

when Xiao Xiang and Ren let me in, they would hear the continuous threats of the palace guard. Ren Fang frowned, looked at Xiao Xiang and asked in a low voice, "princess, this man is"

Xiao Xiang smiles and doesn't answer him. Instead, he raises his chin slightly to his servants. One of them went to the wooden frame, turned his fist and aimed at the bodyguard's stomach, which was a heavy blow.

The blow was strong and twisted the guards' facial features with pain. He called out in a trembling voice and cursed, "you're a motherfucker"

the big man raised his hand, slapped him on the face, and then pulled the black cloth off his eyes.

The cloth was suddenly removed from his eyes, and the guard's eyes were a little closed. His eyes narrowed for a long time to fit the light in the dungeon. At first, he looked around with a grin. Finally, his eyes fell on Xiao Xiang and Ren Fang.

when he saw Xiao Xiang and Ren Fang, he was shocked, and his face changed greatly. He held his tongue for a moment, and said in a hurry, "it is the royal highness of the princess! Why did the princess bring the villain here? "

Xiao Xiang took a handkerchief in one hand, covered it in front of her nose, and said slowly, "are you called Zhang Tong?"

"It's just a villain."

"Don't you know the purpose of this palace to arrest you here?" Xiao Xiangmu was shining, staring coldly at Zhang Tong.

Zhang Tong's face changed again. He said, "I don't know where to offend the Royal Highness."

Xiao Xiang smelled the speech and looked away. The old man on one side was impatient to wait. Seeing Xiao Xiang's displeasure, he did not say a word. He picked up the sticky whip and whipped Zhang Tong more than ten times.

The dozen whips can be described as the whip into the flesh, and the whip saw blood. The clothes on Zhang Tong were pulled out one by one, and the skin and flesh under the clothes were cut and torn, as if by a knife.

Zhang Tong screamed like a pig, and yelled: "please spare your life, princess, spare your life"

Xiao Xiang did not turn her head aside and turned back to look at Zhang Tong. Seeing this, the man who waved the whip stopped immediately and retreated to the side.

She looked at Zhang Tong, who was covered with blood, without expression. She said: "since this palace can bring you here, it has already determined that you are a capital crime. If you want to live, you can tell everything you know."

Zhang Tong's face was pale, his head drooped, and his blood trickled down the corner of his mouth. It was the blood seeping from the cleft of his teeth when he was tortured. He said in a feeble voice: "villains, villains really don't know what crimes they have committed"

after hearing the words, Xiao Xiang immediately turned around and said in a cold voice, "is this the person you brought back to this palace? Another one! " With that she stepped out.

A big man standing next to him was frightened with a cold sweat on his face. His face turned from white to blue and then from blue to purple. He took out his sword from under his ribs and walked to Zhang Tong in a big stride. The tip of the sword stood against Zhang Tong's chest and made a gesture to stab him.

"Wait a minute!" Ren Fang suddenly opened his mouth and stopped the big man. He went to Zhang Tong and said in a deep voice, "that night, you went out with Jin Liren?" At this time, Ren Fang basically guessed the identity of the bodyguard.

Zhang Tong's heart trembling, but he still puzzled and stammered, "I don't know what night the general is referring to."

shook his head at him and said with deep meaning: "you should see that your royal highness is not threatening you now. If you insist on not telling the truth, you will not only die without burial, but also involve nine families. If you don't open your mouth, will your hundreds of brothers not speak? The truth will come out sooner or later. Why do you have to use your own and your family's lives to keep this secret that you can't keep at all? "

His words were as if Zhang Tong had been hit by a dull hammer. His body suddenly shook, and then he sobbed. He raised his head with difficulty, looked at Xiao Xiang, who had come to the gate of the dungeon, and cried out: "spare your life, princess. The villains all say it, the villains all say it"

"this palace has not left yet!" Xiao Xiang took the steps out again, stood up and did not move, and did not turn back to look at him.

"The kidnapping of general Ren's family was entirely the idea of general Jin, and he had nothing to do with villains. The villains were only ordered to act. The princess was observant and general Ren was observant." Zhang Tong's nose and tears flowed out.
