Chapter 159 Unstoppable Rumors
While Chen Chen was still thinking about the reason why the city lord was killed, suddenly a subordinate of the sixth prince ran over anxiously and said, "Report to your highness that the investigation of Yunsheng Shop has the results." Huangfu recruited several men to report the lord of Xiaoying City to him.
The family members asked to leave, turned around and said to the subordinates who came to report: "Speak."
"This..." The subordinate turned his head and looked at Chen Chen who was wandering aside, but stopped talking.
"Tell me, Brother Chen is not an outsider."
"Yes! I have found out from my investigation that this assassination is probably related to the 'Xuetan Organization'."
Blood Tan?! Chen Chen's ears suddenly twitched. Wasn't it just to investigate this organization that he had worked so hard to help track down this kind of thing for so long? The hard work paid off, and now he finally heard the relevant news again.
"Okay, I understand the matter, you go and do your work first." The attendant knelt down, saluted, and hurried away.
Chen Chen walked to Huangfu Tianyou and said, "I just heard that these things are related to Xuetan?"
Huangfu raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "What's wrong? Could it be that Brother Chen has heard of this organization?"
Chen Chen nodded: "To be honest with you, Your Highness, when I first investigated this matter, it was because I was assassinated by them."
"Ah, is Brother Chen okay?"
"It's no longer a serious problem now."
Huangfu's eyes lit up, as if he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, has Brother Chen seen the appearance of those killers? Can you describe them to me?"
Chen Chen gave him a rough description of the appearance of the few people he met. They were thin and covered with black cloth. Their appearance had no characteristics, and their memories were somewhat blurred after such a long time. But their physical appearance
Memories will never fade, so he focused on their combat characteristics and movement habits.
"I see, someone who wins by any means necessary..." Huangfu lowered his head, as if he was thinking about something, "Thank you, Brother Chen, for your help during this period. I have a plan for his organization, but it requires the support of many parties."
Cooperate……"
Time passed bit by bit, and the rumors about the assassination in Yuyang City became rampant, reaching the level of being widely known to every household. For a while, everyone became furious, and every resident living there paid great attention, for fear that in that dark place,
Several unknown men in black rushed out from the corner and took their lives.
"Hey, has anyone died mysteriously near your home recently?"
"No, what's wrong?"
"You still ask why? I heard that there are several killers who kill people when they catch them and chop them down when they see them. In just half a month, dozens of people died tragically!"
"Ah?! Then why doesn't the court care about it?"
"How can the court take care of this? The lord of Xiaoying City next door was assassinated. I heard that he had a grudge with these people for a long time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have died tragically in his own home!"
"What do you mean? Not even the City Lord's Mansion is safe?! Come on, go on, I always feel like someone is watching me in the alley next to me, go on!"
People are very sensitive to such horrific things, let alone something like this that can happen around them at any time? These rumors spread quickly in the city like a plague. After being relayed by multiple tongues, it is no longer possible to listen to them.
out of its original appearance.
Once panic is eradicated in people's hearts, it will be a huge blow to all industries. Chen Chen can clearly feel that the number of people hanging out on the street has decreased, and the Shanyi Hall, which is not very lively in the first place, is even more deserted.
People would sit together and yawn one after another. But this just gave Chen Chen an excellent opportunity to free up more time to investigate his own affairs.
"When I find out about this matter, things will get better and everyone will be fine." Chen Chen thought to himself, then opened the door and walked out.
Such rumors became more and more intense, even spreading in the imperial court. People whispered about this kind of thing in the imperial city, and sure enough, it finally reached the ears of the emperor.
In the morning, in the palace, all the civil and military officials stood respectfully under the stage, not daring to take a breath. On the stage, sitting on the dragon chair, was a gilded man, with endless majesty in his eyebrows.
Elephant. And standing next to him was the emperor's closest servant.
"I recently heard that there is a group of organizations in Yuyang City that exchange human lives for bounties. Is this possible?"
When the officials below heard this, they all started whispering. They didn't know how this matter reached the emperor's ears.
"Where is the Sixth Prince?"
Huangfu Tianyou walked out of the crowd and knelt in front: "My son is here!"
"I heard that you are investigating this matter recently. Is there any progress?"
Huangfu's face was obviously happy, and he quickly replied: "Back to my father, I have made some progress recently, and I may be able to find the mastermind behind this."
"Then I ask you, I heard that the lord of Xiaoying City also died because of this, is this true?"
Huangfu paused for a moment, and finally admitted: "It's almost like ten."
It is said that although these recent events have been rumored a lot, no one present except the Sixth Prince came in person. Now that they heard such a definite answer, the ministers began to talk about it again.
"Quiet!!!" The servant who had been standing next to the emperor spoke at this time, and the sharp voice suddenly penetrated everyone's eardrums, causing the scene to become silent.
"Okay, then let me ask you, if you were asked to handle this matter now, how confident would you be?"
Huangfu thought for a while and said: "If you want to deal with this matter, I am not enough on my own. I also need the help of others."
"Then I will help you! Please note that this is a big matter and must be handled in a flawless manner. Do you understand?"
"Thank you, Father!"
The emperor waved his hand and said, "Okay, if you have something to do, please leave the court."
"Retreat from the court!!!!"
As another sharp voice was heard, everyone below them knelt down again, waiting for the servant above to help the emperor leave completely, and then they slowly stood up.
"I really didn't expect that the legends about Puyang City are all true."
"Yes, yes, even the city lord of the nearby city has been affected, which is terrible." "Some time ago, she wanted to move the mansion to Yuyang City. Let me tell you, luckily she didn't agree to it at that time.
"
Some people secretly rejoiced that some people went to the Sixth Prince to show their courtesy. "Your Highness, you really shined just now. I didn't expect you to start investigating this matter early in the morning. If something similar happens again in the future,
, please give me some more tips.”
Indeed, judging from his actions, he must be thinking: Oh, why didn't I notice such a potential prince before? I need to establish a good relationship as soon as possible. As for the sixth prince saying that he wants help from others? Since this matter
The incident happened in the city of Yuyang, so naturally you need help from the Yuyang Mansion. What does it have to do with me?
