Chapter 903 The wronged Mr. Wang

Chapter 903: Lord Wang who was wronged

Luo Xiaofeng looked at the corpse on the door panel and suddenly frowned: "Your hometown says that mysterious guest is an elderly man?"

The white-bearded old man said, "Not bad."

Luo Xiaofeng smiled bitterly: "If the man wearing a hat was the murderer, why did he hear the voice of a woman before?"

The old man with white beard shook his head: "This is so strange, I can't figure it out."

Luo Xiaofeng frowned and stared at the heavy rain outside the door.

At this moment, a guest suddenly came to the inn.

As soon as the guest put the umbrella around the corner of the house, the white-bearded old man arrived.

When the white-bearded old man saw the guest coming in, he was surprised and said, "I didn't expect it was you..."

Luo Xiaofeng, who was following the white-bearded old man, was also stunned: "Fourth Young Master?"

The guest who came in was actually the fourth son of King Xiao’s mansion!

Mr. Xiao Fourth looked at Luo Xiaofeng and bowed and smiled, "I didn't expect to meet Captain Luo here."

The white-bearded old man smiled: "The two guests gathered in the little old man's shop again, it's really a big deal!"

Mr. Xiao Si glanced at the old shop owner and said lightly: "Arrang the best guest room and prepare the best wine and food!"

The white-bearded shop owner agreed and went down happily.

Outside the store, the strong wind wrapped in snow-capped rain strips whipped hard on the earth. The street was empty and there was no pedestrian.

Luo Xiaofeng stared at Mr. Xiao’s bloodless face and smiled and said, “It’s raining so heavily. Mr. Xiao’s arrival here, is there any business to do?”

Mr. Xiao Si smiled bitterly: "I have no official position, so how can I do anything? I came here to specially invite Captain Luo to visit the royal palace."

Luo Xiaofeng sighed and said, "I am so grateful to the fourth young master for his kindness. This time I came to the imperial city, and it is a pity that I should visit you..."

Luo Xiaofeng said, but suddenly stopped.

Mr. Xiao Si sighed and said, "In the case of Huangfu Villa, there is a bit of a misunderstanding between Captain Luo and my third brother, but I still believe in you."

Luo Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness in the Fourth Young Master Xiao!"

Mr. Xiao Si said, "Since Captain Luo has come to the imperial city, he should go to the Xiao Palace to sit down, so that he can do his best to the landlords."

Luo Xiaofeng smiled bitterly and said, "People's words are terrifying, but I'd better not go. Otherwise, it would have implicated the fourth young master."

Mr. Xiao Si suddenly became excited: "I have a good relationship with Captain Luo, but no matter what others say, I won't take it to heart."

Luo Xiaofeng smiled bitterly.

Mr. Xiao Si frowned and was about to speak, when four or five young men had already started serving the dishes.

The effort was not long, and the table of delicacies was presented to Luo Xiaofeng and Xiao Si Gongzi.

Mr. Xiao Si did not look at the dishes on the table, and his eyes were staring tightly at the wine jar.

On the table, there were two jars of wine placed upright, which were actually the white pear blossoms that had been stored in the cellar for twenty years.

Luo Xiaofeng had untied the mud seal. Once the mud seal was unveiled, a fragrance spread throughout the house.

Mr. Xiao Si blurted out: "Good wine."

Luo Xiaofeng looked at the owner with a smile and said, "Such good wine is rare in the entire Piaomiao Big 6. I didn't expect that my father's store actually treasured such good wine."

The old man in the shop owner smiled and said, "The old man bought these two jars of wine from other places at a high price. The good wine should not only be sold to customers who know the goods, but also to those who are destined to be sold."

Luo Xiaofeng nodded.

The old shop owner personally filled a glass of wine for Luo Xiaofeng and Xiao Si Gongzi, and then he stepped back respectfully.

Mr. Xiao Si picked up a chicken wing and put it in his mouth.

Luo Xiaofeng picked up the porcelain bowl and said, "Please, Fourth Master."

Mr. Xiao Si finished a bowl of wine and suddenly said, "A big event occurred in the imperial city at noon today. I wonder if Captain Luo had heard of it?"

Luo Xiaofeng hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

Mr. Xiao Si said: "Mr. Wang, the military commander of the imperial city, was in big trouble."

Luo Xiaofeng said in confusion: "The military commander is extremely powerful and the status is extremely high. What trouble will he encounter?"

Mr. Xiao Si said lightly: "The serious crime of assassinating the king and killing the emperor."

Luo Xiaofeng said puzzledly: "Oh?"

Mr. Xiao Si said: "There is a concubine Huang in the royal family. This morning, she took a knife to assassinate the emperor. It was that knife that betrayed Lord Wang."

Luo Xiaofeng said in surprise: "What's special about that knife?"

Mr. Xiao Si said, "Because that knife is the treasure sword given to Lord Wang by the emperor."

Luo Xiaofeng said: "How could Lord Wang's imperial treasure sword be brought to the hands of Concubine Huang?"

Mr. Xiao Si shook his head: "No one knows."

Luo Xiaofeng said: "Why don't you ask the Concubine Huang?"

Mr. Xiao Si said, "That Concubine Huang is no longer able to speak."

Luo Xiaofeng was shocked and said, "Why?"

Mr. Xiao Si said: "Because the Concubine Huang who assassinated the King of War was killed by the imperial court guards at that time."

Luo Xiaofeng sighed and suddenly said, "Why is a weak woman so brave?"

Mr. Xiao Si said: "This matter is indeed very strange. She knew she could not succeed, but she still wanted to go there, and she would assassinate in broad daylight."

Luo Xiaofeng said: "This is a serious crime that implicates the nine clans. Even if she is not afraid of death, she will consider it for her family."

Mr. Xiao Si said, "The strangest thing is the weapon in her hand." He looked at the pouring rain outside the door and slowly continued, "The weapon in that woman's hand is actually the imperial treasure sword that Lord Wang, the military commander of the imperial city, loved deeply."

Luo Xiaofeng suddenly asked, "What kind of treasure sword?"

Mr. Xiao Si said: "I heard it is a short knife that can cut gold and iron!"

Luo Xiaofeng said: "Mr. Wang and Concubine Huang know each other?"

Mr. Xiao Si said lightly: "I don't know! So when Concubine Huang dies, Lord Wang will be unable to argue."

Luo Xiaofeng said: "This is indeed a troublesome thing. That Lord Wang is probably very upset."

Mr. Xiao Si said: "After noon tomorrow, he may not be worried."

Luo Xiaofeng said in confusion: "Why?"

Mr. Xiao Si said: "Because at noon tomorrow, Lord Wang and his whole family will be taken to the execution ground to beheaded."

Luo Xiaofeng was surprised and said, "Why is it so fast? This is too unconforming to the rules. What's more, the case has not been tried yet, how can you kill someone easily?"

Mr. Xiao Si smiled bitterly and said, "This is the order of the royal family, and no one can change it."

Luo Xiaofeng suddenly grew up and said excitedly: "That Lord Wang, like me, was also framed by a traitor."

Mr. Xiao Si said, "Yes."

Luo Xiaofeng sighed: "There are too many doubts in this case, so the royal family turned a blind eye?"

Mr. Xiao Si smiled bitterly: "I heard that Ji Kai is also investigating this case, but even if evidence can be found in the future, it may not be too late."

Luo Xiaofeng said: "Tomorrow at noon, Lord Wang's family will be beheaded?"

Mr. Xiao Si said: "The news is absolutely reliable."
