Xiao Tianyao was not in the capital. Su Cha didn't dare to hide some things from Lin Chujiu. What happened to Jing Chi and Tang Tang in the Northern Territory, Lin Chujiu was aware of it.
What Commander Li said, the garrison commander, Lin Chujiu understood that the emperor and Princess Fushou Zhang not really accusing her of nothing. Jing Chi tried to kill Princess Fushou Zhang because she tied the teenager, Tang Tang.
What a bloody thing is this!
Lin Chujiu was depressed inside her heart, but she also knew that she shouldn't recognize this. No matter what, she can't let the imperial guards search Xiao Wangfu. Or she can't leave them alive.
After Commander Li explained everything, Lin Chujiu stayed silent, so he once again opened his mouth: "Xiao Wangfei, you can rest assured. We are only going to look for the assassin, we will not destroy even a single grass in Xiao Wangfu."
Lin Chujiu didn't pay attention to Commander Li's words. Instead, she said: "I heard what happened in the Northern Territory, it seems it happened a month ago, right?"
Commander Li doesn't know why Lin Chujiu suddenly raised this matter. He hesitated for a while but then nodded his head: "Yes, it was last month. Xiao Wangfu sent people to intervene in this matter. Forcing the Northern Territory's Emperor to release the people." Commander Li didn't forget to discredit Xiao Wangfu.
Covering a murderer has never been a good thing.
"Commander Li doesn't need to speak in a sultry manner. I think you know better than I do why the son of Futai died. We, Xiao Wangfu, always act according to the law. Murdering is not good, but that case was special. If it weren't for that person, who knows how many people will still die in the hands of Futai's son. Wangye has no relationship in the Northern Territory, but when he heard of it, he couldn't accept the injustice." Lin Chujiu simply state the facts, but these facts cleaned up their relationship with Jing Chi.
There was no need to give a face of the murderer.
Commander Li frowned. Seeing Lin Chujiu was trying to manipulate the topic, he busily said: "Xiao Wangfei means to say is that the Northern Territory emperor is sentencing an innocent boy, but it doesn't mean he is also innocent in assassinating Princess Fushou Zhang. The princess almost loses her life, so this imperial guard is asking Xiao Wangfei to make things easy for us and hand over the assassin so that the princess can feel at ease."
Commander Li's words were very sinister, he did not only implied that Lin Chujiu was hindering him from catching an assassin but also making Princess Fushou Zhang's life at stake.
Lin Chujiu shook her head and said: "This wangfei is very curious, is Commander Li a civil servant or a military officer?"
"Xiao Wangfei, this matter has nothing to do with catching the assassin." Commander Li's face blackened. Obviously, he was not happy.
Fecui, who was behind Lin Chujiu stepped forward and whispered in Lin Chujiu's ear: "Wangfei, Commander Li's father is a member of the Hanlin Imperial Academy. Commander Li hate it since childhood. And Scholar Li is very dissatisfied with Commander Li's leadership."
Feicui whispered, but everyone could hear her voice. Lin Chujiu simply nodded her head and said: "No wonder Commander Li's wording is not the same to any ordinary general commander. It turned out he came from a family of scholars."
Lin Chujiu's last sentence made Commander Li very angry and dissatisfied: "Xiao Wangfei, are you stalling time?"
"Stalling time? Does this Wangfei need it?" Lin Chujiu slightly leaned back and lazily lifted her eyes, but she still has an imposing atmosphere.
Commander Li was affected by it, his back had sweat a bit, but he still tried to stand tall: "Xiao Wangfei, you have repeatedly blocked me from performing my official duties. Are you resisting the imperial decree?"
"Resisting? No… This wangfei doesn't dare to resist the imperial decree." Lin Chujiu said, but Commander Li haven't had time to rejoice when he heard Lin Chujiu added to say: "But Xiao Wangfu is not a place you can search if you wanted to search or check if you wanted to check."
"Xiao Wangfei, what do you want?" Commander Li knows that Lin Chujiu was trying to raise conditions.
Well, it doesn't matter, he was not afraid of Lin Chujiu, not to mention the condition she will raise.
"How about this, you can search Xiao Wangfu, but… …If you didn't find a single trace of the assassin, you will leave your life in my care." Her last sentence was full of murderous intent and almost fright everyone.
Commander Li frowned: "Xiao Wangfei, what do you mean?"
"Literally as it sounds." Lin Chujiu continued to speak with frightening words: "This wangfei will let you search, but if you failed to find the assassin… … you will offer your life to me."
"Xiao Wangfei, you are too much!" Commander Li was full of dilemmas.
Although he was sure that the perpetrators were related to Xiao Wangfu, he was not sure if the people were hiding in Xiao Wangfu. They were just using this excuse to find out the defense of Xiao Wangfu.
Since the assassination took place on Xiao Tianyao's wedding, Xiao Wangfu's defense has changed. The people they sent can't even step on their wall.
"Too much? Who is too much? It's so ridiculous that you brought a group of imperial guards in Xiao Wangfu with imposing manner, and say that we are hiding assassin so you have to search our place." Lin Chujiu said with a cold face, and she looked very serious.
"You come to my house full of confidence and you are so sure that I am hiding the assassin. But when I said you have to risk your life, you lose your confidence?"
"Of course not… …" Commander Li felt that he was facing a tiger now and couldn't leave.
"That's good." Lin Chujiu raised her hand and waved in the air: "An Pu, come out."
"Wangfei…" The shadow guard that was hiding came out nowhere just like a ghost. Commander Li's face drastically changed after seeing it. He bowed his head to hide the fear in his eyes.
Xiao Wangfu was like a hidden dragon. He didn't know that there were other people nearby.
Lin Chujiu didn't look at Commander Li, she simply said to the shadow guard: "Lead the way to Commander Li's men, they will search Xiao Wangfu. Also, let the others watch over them. Tell them not to hinder the imperial guards from searching, but after they finished checking, escort them to leave."
Lin Chujiu was sure that Jing Chi and his younger brother were not in Xiao Wangfu. Even if they were here, she was sure Commander Li will not find them, so… …
As long as the imperial guards decide to search Xiao Wangfu, they will not be far from death. Lin Chujiu was certainly not a kind-hearted person she may seem.
"Wangfei, this matter… …" When Commander Li saw Lin Chujiu so determined, his heart was shaken. They came to Xiao Wangfu to explore the situation inside. If they will be executed after they finished, then wouldn't it end up useless?
But when he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Lin Chujiu: "Commander Li, you shouldn't say another word. Once you start checking, they will not stop you, nor trouble you."
Lin Chujiu said as if she was a righteous person, but everyone present at the scene understood that she didn't mention things about it, because… …
After this event, she will kill them!
