Chapter 208 The Mystery of Helan Minzhi's Death

In the hall, Li Hong sat there with a thoughtful look on his face. Zhang Zong and Di Renjie were also waiting quietly. After a while, Li Hong looked up and said, "Zhang Zong, come with me!"

After hearing this, Zhang Zong looked at Di Renjie next to him, and the other party seemed to understand what Li Hong meant, so he nodded to him immediately, so Zhang Zong had to follow Li Hong to the study behind the hall. Then Li Hong asked everyone around him to retreat, and only the two of them were left in the room.

"Zhang Zong, tell the truth. Do you have to know what Zhou Futong has done before to find out the case?" Li Hong asked Zhang Zong with a serious expression at this time.

"It's almost certainly a vendetta now. If you want to find General Zhou's enemy, you can only start with his previous experience, otherwise the case will be impossible to investigate!" Zhang Zong also spread his hands and said helplessly.

In fact, in addition to the clue of revenge, you can also start with the murderers who committed the murderers. For example, Zhang Zong confirmed that one of the murderers was a very short man, but this clue was too vague. You should know that the entire Chang'an City has a population of millions. Even if it is a rough investigation, it will probably take several months. At that time, the murderer may not know where to escape.

After hearing this, Li Hong also showed a thoughtful look again. After a while, he sighed, then turned around to the desk, grind the ink and picked up the pen and started writing.

Zhang Zong was also waiting quietly. After a while, Li Hong finished writing, and a piece of paper was almost full. Then he picked it up and handed it to Zhang Zong and said, "Fuxing has done a lot for me, but most of it is not a big deal, and it will not make him enemies. These things may make him become enemies with some people!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Zhang Zong immediately saluted to the other party after hearing this. No matter what, Li Hong could write down these things calmly and hand them over to him, which was a rare trust.

Zhang Zong took the paper and read it. Although he had been mentally prepared, he could not help but be shocked by the content on the paper. If this paper was spread, it would definitely have a significant blow to Li Hong's reputation.

"Huh? This... the prince did this?" Zhang Zong suddenly saw one of the things and pointed to a content on the paper in surprise, and saw that the content said "Kill Helan Minzhi" and other contents.

"Yes, you may have heard about the incident back then. Of course, I can't not report such a great humiliation. It was not convenient for me to do it when I was in the capital. But later when he was exiled, he sent Zhou Futong to propose marriage to Shaozhou and then killed him!" Li Hong nodded, and when he mentioned the name Helan Minzhi, a deep hatred appeared on his face again.

"I remember Helan Minzhi hanged himself on the reins of a horse. Didn't he commit suicide, but was killed by General Zhou?" Zhang Zong said in surprise again when he heard this. He had heard Xue Shao say that Helan Minzhi was lost to Leizhou, but when he arrived in Shaozhou, he committed suicide because he could not bear the humiliation. Even the historical books of later generations recorded this way, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Haha, that's just the court's external guise. In fact, he was indeed killed by General Zhou, and after his death, he was set on fire by General Zhou. It should have been burned to charcoal. Later, the court had not even found it. My good mother knew very well that I did this, but she was suppressed by her father!" Li Hong also showed a cold smile again when he said this.

"The corpse was burned after death, but no body was found?" Zhang Zong suddenly stared in shock when he heard this, because he suddenly felt that Helan Minzhi's way of death was a bit similar to Zhou Futong's family, especially the burning of corpse after death, which was exactly the same.

"Wait a minute, since the body has not been found, how can you be sure that Helan Minzhi is really dead?" Zhang Zong suddenly thought of a possibility and immediately asked Li Hong again.

Li Hong was also stunned when he heard this, and then said with an incredible look: "It's impossible. Zhou Futong will never make any mistakes in doing things. I remember it very clearly. That day he came back and told me that Helan Minzhi was stabbed by him and fell to the ground and died on the spot. Then he was not at ease, so he set a fire on the body. As a result, the fire was too big and the inn was ignited. How could Helan Minzhi still be alive under such conditions?"

"Since Helan Minzhi is such a sensitive person, since he is dead, the court will definitely send people to investigate thoroughly afterwards. In this case, how could he not even find the body?" Zhang Zong asked again.

"This..." Li Hong also showed a hesitant look when he heard this. In fact, after Helan Minzhi's death, it did cause shock in the court, especially his mother Wu Meiniang, who even asked the court to investigate thoroughly. As a result, the entire Dali Temple was sent out, but in the end, the body was not found. Later, his father Li Zhi ordered to block all the news, and only claimed that Helan Minzhi committed suicide.

"Will the fire be too big, so Helan Minzhi's body was burned to ashes?" Li Hong hesitated for a long time before speaking again.

"Impossible. Even if the fire is too big, can it be greater than the fire in Anrenfang this time? But even with such a big fire, the bodies of the Zhou family were not burned to ashes. At most, the limbs and flesh were burned, but the bones in the torso could be preserved." Zhang Zong shook his head with great affirmation.

"Then what you mean is that Helan Minzhi may still be alive?" Li Hong said incrediblely at this time. If Helan Minzhi was still alive, he would indeed be very likely to take revenge on Zhou Futong and even take revenge on himself, because he knew that Helan Minzhi was simply a madman and could do anything.

"It's just a hypothesis now that if Helan Minzhi was not dead, he would definitely take revenge on General Zhou. General Zhou pierced his heart with a knife, but he was not dead. So when he took revenge on General Zhou, he used the method of beheading to ensure that General Zhou would not die like him, and then burn the body after death. This is exactly the same as General Zhou's method of dealing with him!" Zhang Zong analyzed again at this time.

"Wait! Could it be...what she said it was true?" Li Hong suddenly thought of something at this time and immediately widened his eyes in shock.

"Who is she? What is true?" Zhang Zong didn't understand Li Hong's words, and immediately asked him in confusion.
