Zongwu: Start as Jinyiwei, invincible and powerful!

Chapter 128 The palace was robbed, and I met Lu Xiaofeng for the first time!

After returning home, Lin Fan had a warm and affectionate time with the girls.

After resting at home for a day, Lin Fan returned to the Jinyiwei office and began to investigate the robbery of Prince Pingnan's Mansion.

In fact, after listening to Emperor Zhu Shou's words in the palace, Lin Fan had probably made a judgment in his mind.

If nothing unexpected happens, the real culprit behind this case is Jin Jiuling, the chief constable of the Six Gates.

Since it was clear that he wanted to make a contribution, Lin Fan naturally looked for his own people.

So, Lin Fan went to the Northern Pacification Office and selected Zhou Meng, Dong Tianbao, Lin Pingzhi, and the Jinyiwei under Dong Tianbao, and went to the Prince of Ping'an's Palace together.

"I wonder what Lord Lin wants to see me about?" When King Pingnan learned that Lin Fan was coming to visit, he went straight to the gate of the palace to greet him.

Today, Lin Fan not only holds a high position in the court, but also has unfathomable strength. Even the King of Pingnan dares not neglect him.

Lin Fan clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty. I'm here on His Majesty's orders to investigate the serial murders that have occurred in the past month. I came to the palace hoping to find some clues."

When King Pingnan heard Lin Fan's words, his expression turned slightly unhappy.

This incident is really not a glorious thing for the royal palace.

Initially, Prince Pingnan did not even want to alert the emperor and resolved the matter privately.

Unfortunately, this case was not so easy to solve, and the East and West Factories and the Embroidered Uniform Guard were well-informed, and the information was quickly passed on to Emperor Zhu Shou.

Afterwards, the Six Gates and the Divine Marquis' Mansion began to investigate.

Unfortunately, even though the Six Gates and the Divine Marquisate joined forces, they were unable to find the murderer behind the scenes.

Prince Pingnan's expression changed, and he extended his hand and said, "Master Lin, please!"

"Uncle Zhou and Pingzhi, come in with me. Tianbao and his men will be waiting outside," Lin Fan said, turning around and giving instructions to Zhou Meng and the others. He then politely said to Prince Pingnan, "Excuse me for disturbing you."

Immediately, the three of them followed Prince Pingnan into the palace.

Following the King of Pingnan's instructions, Lin Fan and the other two checked some details at the crime scene, but found nothing special.

Lin Fan asked Prince Pingnan, "Your Majesty, is Chief Steward Jiang at home?"

Chief Steward Jiang is the chief steward of the Prince of Pingnan’s Palace. His real name is Jiang Chongwei. He was originally considered a master in the martial arts world.

Prince Pingnan shook his head and said, "General Manager Jiang was blinded by bandits at the time and later resigned. He is not in the palace now. I heard that he went to Qixia Temple to recuperate."

"Qixia Temple? Thank you for letting us know, Your Highness. We will not disturb you for now. If Your Highness has any new news, please feel free to contact our Jinyiwei." Upon hearing this, Lin Fan clasped his fists to King Pingnan.

King Pingnan said, "I will do it. Lord Lin, take care."

"Your Highness, please stay," Lin Fan persuaded Prince Pingnan who was about to see him off, and then left Prince Pingnan's mansion with Zhou Meng and Lin Pingzhi.

"grown ups!"

Seeing Lin Fan and the other two coming out, Dong Tianbao hurried forward and saluted Lin Fan respectfully.

Lin Fan nodded, then casually asked Zhou Meng and Lin Pingzhi, "How's it going? Did you find anything?"

Lin Fan himself actually has no experience in investigating cases.

In comparison, Zhou Meng is an experienced veteran among the Jinyiwei.

As for Lin Pingzhi, he is still in the learning stage.

"I didn't find anything special," Lin Pingzhi said with some shame.

Zhou Meng also said: "The same goes for me."

"It's okay. Since the palace hasn't found out, let's go to Qixia Temple to meet that steward Jiang," Lin Fan said with a smile.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, everyone responded in unison.

Immediately, a group of dozens of people headed straight towards Qixia Temple outside the city.

An hour later, the group arrived at the gate of Qixia Temple.

There, there was a man who looked to be about thirty years old, also heading into Qixia Temple.

When the man saw Lin Fan and the others coming aggressively, he dodged slightly and retreated to the side with a smile.

As he passed by the man, his appearance also came into Lin Fan's sight.

He had thick eyebrows, long eyelashes, and a mustache that was trimmed very neatly, just like his other two eyebrows.

Such physical features, combined with his elegant and graceful appearance, make him look both handsome and graceful.

"stop!"

Lin Fan waved his hand, stopping Zhou Meng and the other Jinyi Guards who were advancing. He then looked at the man and said, "Are you Lu Xiaofeng, known as the Four Eyebrows?"

The man smiled upon hearing this, clasped his fists and bowed to Lin Fan, saying, "I am Lu Xiaofeng, nice to meet you, Master Lin."

Lin Fan said calmly, "It seems that Lu Xiaofeng is indeed as clever as the rumors say. You must be here for the case at Prince Pingnan's Mansion, right?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Master Lin has a keen eye. I was invited by the Six Gates Chief Constable Jin Jiuling to assist in the investigation of this case."

"In that case, let's go in together," Lin Fan nodded slightly and said, "I've also been wanting to see the abilities of this clever man, Mr. Lu."

"Thank you for the compliment, sir," Lu Xiaofeng said with a smile.

"Let's go," Lin Fan said nothing more, left two words, and went straight into Qixia Temple.

Lu Xiaofeng gave a wry smile and followed Lin Fan closely.

As for Zhou Meng and other Jinyiwei, there is naturally no need to say more.

"What brings you here, gentlemen?" As the group had just entered Qixia Temple, a woman appeared and asked in a somewhat unfriendly tone.

Lin Fan didn't say anything. Dong Tianbao stepped forward and asked coldly, "Who are you? Do you know Jiang Zhongwei?"

The woman said, "People from the Six Gates and the Divine Marquis' Mansion have been here, and you, the Imperial Guards, are here again, but there has been no progress in the case. You are simply disturbing my brother's recovery for no reason. You are not welcome here."

Lin Fan raised his eyebrows when he heard this and asked, "Are you Jiang Qingxia, Jiang Zhongwei's sister?"

Jiang Qingxia was slightly startled when she heard Lin Fan's words, "How do you know about me?"

Dong Tianbao scolded, "This is Lord Lin, the commander of the Jinyiwei. Please be respectful to us. We, the Jinyiwei, will naturally find a way to find out who we want to investigate."

"Control your temper, Miss Jiang is not a criminal," Lin Fan waved his hand to stop Dong Tianbao, and then said,

"I have been ordered by the Emperor to investigate the robbery of Prince Pingnan's Mansion. Jiang Zhongwei is an important figure in this case, so he will naturally know more details. Take us to see Jiang Zhongwei."

Jiang Qingxia wanted to say something, but Lu Xiaofeng beside her quickly persuaded her:

"Miss Jiang, Lord Lin is here only to investigate the case, not to cause trouble for you and your sister. If you stop him, you will cause trouble for your brother."

"Hmph, just follow me!" Jiang Qingxia's expression changed for a moment, she snorted coldly, and led the way.

Lu Xiaofeng narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Jiang Qingxia's shoes for a few more seconds.

Lin Fan took all of this in, but said nothing. He led a group of Jinyiwei directly into the depths of Qixia Temple.

Soon, Jiang Chongwei was seen lying on the bed with his eyes covered with a white cloth.
