"It should not be!"
Elder Xu also thought that this matter might have been caused by his uncle,
who was as mindful as a sieve, but when he thought about it carefully, he
denied this guess.
His little uncle has a lot of thieves, and he either doesn't do things, or he
doesn't leak, and he always gets some benefits after doing this.
What good is it for him to attack and kill the three people in Xu Mansion?
No!
Moreover, the people of Xu Mansion died in this area. If you say who is most
suspected, it is naturally his Master Zhao Er. After all, the grudge between
the Zhao Family and Xu Mansion is much older.
Mr. Xu recounted his analysis, and Mrs. Xu blinked and said, "Then, what if
your uncle thinks the same way?"
"No way?"
Father Xu scratched his head, not knowing how to continue.
He must admit that the possibility his wife said is indeed possible.
But his little uncle's heart would not do such a stupid thing.
After pondering for a long time, Mr. Xu suddenly raised his head, looked at
Mrs. Xu, and said anxiously: "You said, is it possible that it is self-
directed and acted?"
"Directing and acting?"
Mrs. Xu repeated Father Xu's guess, "You mean that the man was sent by the Xu
Mansion, and the murderer was also from the Xu Mansion. But, what's the
purpose?"
"Buggy!"
Mr. Xu raised his finger and pointed at himself, "If Xu Fu is really directing
and acting himself, then they are probably trying to blame me."
"But, it doesn't make sense!"
Mrs. Xu chuckled, "Even if you want to blame, there must be a reason!"
"These people haven't entered the village yet, and they haven't even contacted
us. They want to blame you. You don't even have a motive for killing. They are
too low-level to plant and blame!"
"That's what I said!"
Mr. Xu overturned his guess in an instant.
Since it is impossible for the Zhao family to make the move, nor is it to
plant and blame him, then who exactly killed the people in Xu Mansion?
Although the murderer left marks on the scene, it was impossible for Mr. Xu to
check the site where the murderer shot arrows.
"Master, don't think too much!"
"Maybe, it has nothing to do with us at all."
"Just like you said, Xu Mansion has offended many people under the leadership
of that old lady over the years. And this old lady is not easy to get out of
the gate of Xu Mansion on weekdays. Then, he must come forward. It was the
people around her, maybe it was these people who had offended someone, which
caused the killing."
Mrs. Xu's analysis, let alone, is quite reasonable.
The old lady Xu, who doesn't show up on big and small things, will rely on
people around him to do whatever he orders. There are definitely not a few
women who offend the women around her.
When in the capital, everyone was afraid of the power of Xu Mansion and dared
not do anything. But now, these people have left the capital, far away from
the Xu Mansion, and they may be given a black hand by someone.
...
When Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu were discussing the matter at home, Zuoqiu from the
county government also received a message from Guan Laoqi.
"Lao Tzu who provokes someone?"
Zuo Qiu's expression looked ugly after hearing the words of the informant.
He is a small Seven-Rank county magistrate, and he is about to be promoted,
but why in the last period of time, there are always all kinds of troubles?
The subordinates of Xu's family were killed!
What is this called?
Zuo Qiu was so frustrated in his heart, but he had nowhere to vent.
He could only call the Dian Shi and head hunters from Anshun County to come
and ask them to investigate the case.
However, not long after Dian Shi and the head catchers left, a masked man
appeared in front of Zuo Qiu silently, showed a token, and handed a letter to
Zuo Qiu.
Zuoqiu opened the envelope and took out the letter paper inside. After only
looking at it twice, he took the firefolder and lit the paper letter.
"Your Excellency, please go back and say something and say Zuo knows it!"
Zuoqiu looked at the masked man who appeared mysteriously in front of him,
took the seal on the table in his hand, stamped three seals on a blank piece
of paper, and handed the piece of paper to the other party.
"Farewell!"
The masked man went out and walked directly over the wall.
Zuo Qiu was sitting on a chair, looking at the letter paper that had been
burned into ashes, and he took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.
...
At the Sanhe Town Inn, Zhao Bingzhen had already received the news that
someone from Xufu had been shot and killed on the way from Lingshui Village to
Sanhe Town.
When he received the news, people called Zhao Rui the first time.
"Master, don't look at me like this, I really didn't do this thing!"
"If I do it, I will definitely do it without knowing it, and absolutely
everything seems to be an accident. It's my way of doing it!"
Zhao Rui is not a temperament that dared not be.
Especially in the face of Zhao Bingzhen, he has no need to conceal it at all.
Zhao Bingzhen pondered for a moment, and said, "You didn't do it, so who do
you think did it?"
"I don't know, I can't tell at all!"
"Before the three were killed, the carriage they were riding in was frightened
and turned over. All three of them should have been injured."
"In other words, the people who shot first attacked their carriage, and then
killed the three of them."
Zhao Rui was not a cautious old man Xu. After learning the news of the death
of the Xu family, he went to the scene to see it, and by the way, he found the
archery man in the woods where he was standing.
"This person has very good archery skills!"
"Three arrows fired together, shooting three people at the same time, this
archery skill, among the masters that the disciple knows, there is not one!"
"The place where this person shot is sixty steps away from those three
people."
"Even a single arrow, with such archery skills, can definitely be regarded as
a leader in the military."
"Three arrows fired together, shooting three people at the same time sixty
steps away, this method is simply amazing!"
Zhao Rui inspected the scene and determined that only one person had shot.
And the reason why he was sure that the three arrows were fired together was
also judged from the posture of the three dead and fallen to the ground.
If the three of them are not hitting the arrow at the same time, then after
one of the three hits the arrow, the other two will definitely not be
unconscious.
"It may not be all three arrows!"
Zhao Bingzheng listened to Zhao Rui's analysis, but shook his head, "If a
person shoots arrows fast enough, it is possible to achieve this effect."
"Don't forget, you said that the three people were injured and walked on the
road supporting each other. Their reaction is definitely not better than that
of normal people."
Zhao Rui's expression slowly changed after hearing Zhao Bingzhen's words.
"Master, if things are like you guessed it, then, the person who shot is
probably an archer in the army!"
"Even, it might be a whirlwind ride!"
Zhao Rui licked her lips, "But if it is Cyclone Riding, then, what is the
motive of King Yan? Is it because of the relationship between Princess Yan and
Xu Mansion?"
