The Key Witnesses! Flowers!
When Lu Qing arrived at the inn, Han Min and the others were already there.
Han Min was on the verge of tears when she saw Lu Qing.
He looked at Lu Qing pitifully and said,""Lord Shaoqing, this lowly official doesn't want to be this lousy official anymore.”
"The Tuyuhun envoy's case hasn't started yet, and now there's another 25 murder cases. I was dragged out as soon as I fell asleep. If this continues, I'll either die of exhaustion or be scared to death.”
Looking at Han Min's sparse hair, Lu Qing could not help but mourn for her.
Han Min was truly unlucky to be the governor of the capital in this troubled period of the Great Tang.
"Don't worry," he consoled,"with me around, you won't lose your position."”
"So, don't be afraid. Just be mentally prepared to go bald.”
Han Min was speechless.
Lu Qing didn't care about the aggrieved Han Min anymore and walked straight into the inn.
As soon as he entered the inn, he was greeted by a bloody aura.
He frowned slightly and said,"Tell me, what happened?"
Han Min said," When the night watchman passed by the inn, he heard a scream coming from inside the inn. At the same time, he saw the shadow of a killer appear on the window. The night watchman was so scared that he almost wet his pants. He quickly ran to the capital governor to report the case."”
"Then, I brought people over and found that the murderer had already run away. In this inn, from the shopkeeper to the staff and the guests, there were a total of 25 people.”
"What's the wound like?" Lu Qing asked.”
The coroner walked over and said," Your Excellency, there are knife wounds and sword wounds. It's more complicated. Moreover…this knife wound is somewhat different from the standard knife commonly used in the Tang Empire."”
"You mean that it wasn't caused by a weapon commonly seen in the Great Tang?”Lu Qing asked.
"According to the depth and width of the wound, it seems to be a weapon from the Tubo Empire."”
"Tibet?"
Han Min looked at Lu Qing and said,"Lord Shaoqing, could it be the case of the Tibetan Goulang General?"”
Lu Qing didn't answer. He went upstairs and said,""Have you searched the room? Are you sure the murderers have escaped?"
"I have."
"Check again." Lu Qing said.
"What?"
"I asked you to send someone to check again. Maybe you missed something. Search the cabinets and see if there's a cellar.”
Han Min felt that Lord Shaoqing's order was somewhat baffling.
However, he still listened obediently and asked someone to investigate carefully again.
The bailiffs began to search more carefully.
Lu Qing came to a corpse and observed the wound on it. He narrowed his eyes and knew what was going on.
He walked through every room before returning to the first floor. Then, he went behind the counter and opened the shopkeeper's notebook to carefully look at the situation of the rooms.
"Sir, we found something!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
Han Min was stunned for a moment. F * ck, no way?
Could it be that he was really careless just now and missed something?
He and Lu Qing quickly walked over and found a wounded person being dragged out of the rice vat.
The bailiff said," This person is hiding in the rice jar. We didn't notice him just now, but he was also seriously injured. Fortunately, he's not dead yet."”
Han Min looked at Lu Qing.
"What are you waiting for?" Lu Qing asked. Send him to the hospital."
"At the same time, send someone to protect him and place him in the capital governor's office. He is very likely to be a witness to this massacre case.”
Han Min quickly nodded." That's right. Quick, don't just stand there. If we really die, we'll do as Lord Shaoqing says. We don't know who's the boss!"”
The bailiffs were speechless.
They really wanted to remind Han Min that she was the capital governor and their boss.
However, seeing that Han Min was already used to being a lackey, they had nothing to say.
He hurriedly left with the heavily injured and unconscious person.
At this time, it was almost dawn. Lu Qing casually kicked the notebook on the counter into his pocket and said,""Let's go."
"Where to?"
"Let's eat."
Han Min couldn't keep up with Lu Qing's train of thought.""Milord, are you not going to investigate?"
"There's no need. As long as he wakes up, everything will be revealed.”
Lu Qing's lips curled up. He looked at Han Min and said,""You must protect him. As long as he wakes up, the truth of the massacre case and the Tuyuhun envoy case will be revealed.”
"Really?" Han Min was shocked.”
Are you lying to me?
It was so easy to solve the case?
I don't know anything yet.
Lu Qing smiled mysteriously." When have I ever lied to you? So, please hire a good doctor for him. Pray that he doesn't die. Otherwise, this case might really be unsolvable."”
Han Min looked at Lu Qing. She felt that Lu Qing's smile was a little strange.
He always felt that Lord Shaoqing knew a lot of things, but Lord Shaoqing didn't tell him anything, making him really itchy.
The two of them ate something at a random breakfast stall.
When paying the bill, Lu Qing casually said,""Shopkeeper, this isn't practical. This is just a little more, but it actually costs ten wen.”
The shopkeeper quickly said," Sir, you don't know. It's not that I want it to be expensive, but the cost has increased. You don't know, but in the past few days, the grain has become a lot more expensive. I can't help it!”
"Food is expensive?"
Lu Qing was a little surprised.”
"I'm not sure either. It was about ten days ago. The price is getting higher and higher by the day.”
Lu Qing frowned slightly when he heard the shopkeeper's words.
"Why is Lord Shaoqing still concerned about the price of grain?" Han Min asked.”
Lu Qing frowned and pondered, ignoring Han Min.
Suddenly, he thought of something and his eyes widened.
"I understand again!"
"What?" Han Min's face was full of question marks.
"Lord Han, do you know anyone in the Ministry of Revenue?" Lu Qing asked.”
"I have a good friend who is the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue."”
"Then I would like to ask Lord Han to help me ask the Ministry of Revenue about something…"
As he spoke, he lowered his voice and whispered something into Han Min's ear.
After Han Min heard this, her eyes were filled with confusion.
He looked at Lu Qing blankly and said,""What does this have to do with the case?”
Lu Qing smiled mysteriously." Not only is it related to the case, but it's also related to your life."”
Han Min heard this and immediately said solemnly," Don't worry, Lord Shaoqing. Leave this matter to me. If I don't investigate it thoroughly, I will…"
He touched his bald head sadly and said,"Let me go bald!"
What a vicious oath!
Lu Qing smiled." Go ahead. I'll wait for your results."”
"Good!" Han Min turned around and left without a word.
Lu Qing took a deep breath and smiled.""Now, everything is basically ready.”
"Lord Shaoqing."
At this moment, a eunuch ran over while wiping his sweat. He saw Lu Qing and didn't have time to rest. He quickly said,""His Majesty has decreed that Lord Shaoqing should immediately enter the palace.”
