Lin'an Never Night

Chapter 419 It's Me (Additional chapter for leader Gongshu Yinchen)
A Japanese ninja appeared at the gate of Dali Temple and wanted to meet the Dali Temple Chief!
When the news was reported, the Dali Temple responded quickly.

It turned out to be Prince of Jin Zhao Ju who hurried to the screen wall in front of the yamen together with the Dali Temple Minister Wu Shu.

The Xiangji Temple case was too serious, and the identities of all the people involved in the case had reached their peak.

After those Japanese ninjas were captured, the Dali Temple found three interpreters from the Ministry of Rites who were proficient in Japanese and Japanese language, and accompanied the investigators from the Imperial City Bureau and the Dali Temple to interrogate them one by one.

Although these ninjas are monsters with fanatical wills, they are ready to face death.

However, their flesh and blood could not withstand the endless tortures of the Imperial City Bureau and the Dali Temple.

When the physical pain becomes so severe that they would rather die but cannot, some people confess.

Once there is a confessor, the defenses of other ninjas will be quickly broken.

Finally, the Dali Temple corroborated the testimonies given by different prisoners and gradually restored the true picture of the whole incident.

Among ninjas, it is usually the senior ninja who plans from behind and does not lead the team to carry out the operations.

Usually a Chunin serves as the captain, and other Chunins and Genins serve as team members to carry out the specific tasks.

This is the first time that the ninjas have fought overseas, and the target is such an important foreign figure.

If they succeed in this mission, they will become Ninja Gods.

Only the Yagyu Forty Taken Jonin broke the rules and led the team himself.

It is for this reason that, traditionally, the few Chunins who are truly responsible for leading the team's execution also know the ins and outs of the plan.

Their testimony exposed Chu Yuan's existence.

Chu Yuan was arrested as a result.

It would be much easier for the Dali Temple to force Chu Yuan to speak.

They didn't even need to torture Chu Yuan. They just needed to promise Chu Yuan that they would reduce the punishment for his family. Chu Yuan, knowing that he could not escape death, readily confessed.

With Chu Yuan's testimony, combined with the testimony of the Japanese ninja, the chain of evidence has been completed.

The Dali Temple Minister Wu Shu immediately reported the trial results to the emperor in secret.

Zhao Yuan thought about it again and again, and finally summoned Prince of Jin Zhao Yu into the palace. The two brothers deliberated for a long time and finally decided that the case should not be embellished and should be tried publicly by the three judicial officials.

The only doubt in this case that has not yet convinced the public is why Qin Hui himself died on the spot.

You want to say that he was the mastermind of the entire conspiracy, but he died at the scene, which makes it hard to convince people.

However, after repeatedly interrogating the ninjas and Chu Yuan, no new discoveries were made.

These killers were also confused about Qin Hui's death.

The death of the late emperor cannot be dragged on like this without an explanation. If it is delayed any further, it may even lead to rumors that are unfavorable to the current emperor.

Qin Hui's affairs cannot be delayed any longer. If his crimes are still not exposed and judged, then this regicide traitor should even be given a perfect posthumous title and a good end.

This was something Zhao Yuan could not accept no matter what.

Therefore, Zhao Yuan, who was always upright and tactful, had no choice but to accept Zhao Yu's suggestion this time:

In order to evade suspicion, Qin Hui created the illusion that he was being hunted, but ended up committing suicide to close the case.

The specific situation is that Qin Hui cried "stop thief" and deliberately created a scene where he was being hunted.

As a result, the fake thing became real because his car slipped on the snow while running and hit the lamp stand, which then collapsed the wall, causing the car body to deform and making it impossible for him to escape.

Fire from the fallen lamp stand splashed into the carriage and ignited a tube of "Divine Fire Flying Crow" that Qin Hui used to protect himself, causing him to kill himself.

I have to say that the Goose King’s imaginative statement is logically valid.

It can perfectly explain why Qin Hui, the mastermind of the assassination, was one step ahead of the target.

evidence?

easy to do.

Only through the three interpreters could the imperial court produce understandable confessions of those Japanese assassins who were eventually to be executed.

Therefore, all we have to do is bribe the three interpreters to cooperate.

Naturally, the government cannot be involved in this matter. If it is fake, it is fake. If it is not handled properly, it will be a huge stain.

Once a false testimony is exposed, the true confessions will also be doubted by the world, and the consequences will be too serious.

So the Goose King planned to handle this matter himself.

He rushed to the Dali Temple and first met with the Dali Temple Minister Wu Shu. On the grounds that he wanted to review the prisoners personally, he wanted to take the three interpreters to the prison.

Zhao Qu thought that he should first find an opportunity to contact these three interpreters privately, and then bribe them with promises of wealth and glory to cooperate with him.

But before he could explain his purpose, he heard that three Japanese people had arrived at the gate of Dali Temple.

So, Zhao Ju and the Dali Temple Minister Wu Shu rushed to the gate of the Dali Temple.

"Are you the Minister of the Dali Temple of Song?"

Fujiwara Himeka asked in a female voice.

Ji Xiang was quite surprised to see the Goose King.

This person standing in the middle should be the highest-ranking official in the Dali Temple.

But is the Chief Justice of the Song Dynasty so young?

Zhao Yu hurriedly said, "I am the King of Jin of the Song Dynasty, and this is the Minister of the Dali Temple, Lord Wu."

Zhao Qiu pointed to the side, and Fujiwara no Himeka looked at Wu Shu again and thought, I've heard that people in Song Dynasty like to give people nicknames, I didn't expect that the Chief Justice of Dali Temple is no exception.

But why did he have such a weird nickname "Centipede"?

Wu Shu nodded and said, "I am Wu Shu, the Minister of the Dali Temple. Are you from Japan?" Yazawa Kanon said in a masculine, stiff Chinese accent, "Yes, we are ninjas from the Asuka clan in Nara, Japan."

She and Xiaonai are both proficient in transformation and cross-dressing. Voice changing is part of transformation, so it is very easy for her to imitate a man's voice.

Moreover, their body shapes have been modified to a certain extent. Although they are still petite, the unique characteristics of women can no longer be seen.

Wu Shu was not too surprised by this. Most of the ninjas he had interrogated were thinner than ordinary Japanese.

During the interrogation, he learned that since ninjas often need to climb high and low, and run on eaves and walls, they need to keep their bodies light and thin.

Only in this way can they move extremely flexibly and hide in places in ways that ordinary people cannot.

Upon hearing the three men in black admit that they were Japanese ninjas, the group of officers and soldiers who followed Zhao Qu and the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple immediately dispersed and surrounded them.

The eight meat mountains around the Goose King also swayed their fat bodies flexibly, forming a meat screen around Zhao Yu.

Wu Shu said solemnly, "Why do you want to see me?"

Fujiwara no Himeka said: "We are here to tell you that we were the ones who killed your country's Prime Minister Qin Hui."

Wu Shu was shocked: "What?"

The Goose King tried to pull at the mountain of meat in front of him, but failed.

He poked his head out from between two shoulders as broad as city walls, and asked anxiously, "You? Then what about those Japanese who assassinated the Emperor of the Song Dynasty in Xiangji Temple..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Nai interrupted him in a young man's voice: "Those ninjas are our enemies!"

The ninjas who assassinated the emperor were their enemies, but then weren't they their friends?

That’s not right. Then why did they want to assassinate Qin Hui?

The Goose King immediately asked his doubts.

Fujiwara no Himeka said proudly: "We are subordinates of Fujiwara no Mitsukoshi of Kujikai Shrine in Hakata-tsu, Japan."

Fujiwara no Himeka, who had been poisoned by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, said passionately: "Fujiwara no Michiru is a man of unparalleled talent. He controls Hakata and is admired by the people of Hakata, like water returning to the sea. The Michiru is magnanimous and generous, and is the tool of a hero..."

The Goose King thought the words sounded familiar. Why did they sound like what he heard when Mr. Qu Da talked about the Three Kingdoms in the tile house?
Fujiwara Himeka first praised herself endlessly before getting to the point.

The specific content is roughly: Japan has a treacherous hero named Taira no Kiyomori who is like Cao Cao. This Taira no Kiyomori uses the emperor to control the princes.

Taira no Kiyomori coveted the huge profits generated by the port of Hakata, so he used his army to invade Hakata and also wanted to murder the Fujiwara no Mizuhiro of the Kujikai Jingu Shrine, who was kind and popular and a great talent.

Taira no Kiyomori also colluded with Qin Hui, the treacherous prime minister of the Song Dynasty, and sent assassins to the Song Dynasty to assist Qin Hui in assassinating the emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Qin Hui promised that after the success, he would vigorously promote comprehensive trade between Song and Pingqingsheng.

And they are the subordinates of the wise and powerful Fujiwara no Kami.

Fujiwara no Michiru has now turned from light to darkness, and is leading the loyal and righteous men of Hakata to secretly deal with the treacherous hero Taira no Kiyomori, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

They were ordered by Fujiwara no Miyabi to go to the Central Plains to destroy the alliance between Taira no Kiyomori and Qin Hui, the powerful prime minister of the Song Dynasty.

However, by the time they learned of Kiyomori's conspiracy, it was already too late and they failed to rescue the Emperor of Song in time.

In order to stop Taira no Kiyomori from growing stronger, they had no choice but to kill Qin Hui, the treacherous prime minister of the Song Dynasty who was in league with Taira no Kiyomori. "

Yazawa Kanon said: "The person who hid under Qin Hui's carriage in front of Xiangji Temple and attacked him was me!"

Xiao Nai puffed out his chest and said, "I was the one who hid between the brackets of Xiangji Temple and attacked Qin Hui."

Fujiwara Himeka said proudly: "I was the one who kicked down the lamp stand, stopped Qin Hui's carriage from escaping, and stuffed the rockets I took from Taira no Kiyomori into the carriage, killing him!"

Kanon and Kona were able to explain the details of the actions of the two assassins who assassinated Qin Hui in front of Xiangji Temple, and Fujiwara Himeka even talked about many details of the killing of Qin Hui.

No one outside knew what exactly happened in that carriage and what weapon killed Qin Hui.

The lamp stand was actually kicked down by someone. This detail was confirmed when the Imperial City Division and the Dali Division sent personnel to investigate the scene for the third time and found sunken footprints on the lamp stand.

What the three Japanese people said in front of him actually matched these details completely.

Wu Shu was immediately overjoyed and said quickly: "What you said is very important to our Song Dynasty. Could you please come to the hall to talk and let me take notes?"

Goose King Zhao Yu was even more delighted when he heard this. It turned out that this was how Qin Changjiao died. Goose, goose, goose, goose…

This way I don't have to take the risk of cheating.

The truth about Qin Hui's death has now been revealed, and there is even an additional chain of evidence, which further proves that Qin Hui was the mastermind behind the Xiangji Temple incident.

Zhao Yu was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, as long as what you said is true, our Song Dynasty will never harm you. We will treat you with courtesy and regard you as a distinguished guest."

"No need!"

Fujiwara Himeka reached into her bosom, took out a letter, and said, "I have written down all the details.

It is also stamped with the seal of our wise and powerful Lord, which is sufficient to prove its authenticity and legitimacy. "

Fujiwara no Himeka shook her wrist, and the letter flew towards Zhao Qu.

Fujiwara no Himeka said, "We are here today on behalf of the Lord to explain the truth. We just hope that your country can understand Taira no Kiyomori's evil ambitions and not be used by him. Goodbye."

After saying that, Hanane and Xiaonai threw out a flying claw at the same time and grabbed the top of the tall screen wall.

The two men simultaneously reached out to support Ji Xiang, and the three of them climbed up the high screen wall together.

They ran along the one-foot-wide screen wall in small steps to the end and escaped from the encirclement of the Dali Temple officers and soldiers on the ground.

The flying claw flew into the air again and grabbed the eaves of a building on the opposite side of the street.

The three women used the power of the flying claw to leap onto the roof of the pavilion.

In a moment, they disappeared without a trace, taking advantage of the densely packed houses.
