Chapter 123
Jian Chong looked at him speechlessly and said: "The assassin is already dead, why are you still wanting him?"

"What? Dead?" Chang Qingyi stood up from his seat in shock.

Jian Chong sighed and said: "What's so surprising about this, it's just killing people to silence them, haven't you seen it?"

Chang Qingyi coughed a few times in embarrassment, then regained his composure and said, "Since the killer has been executed, please brother Jian Chong lead me to bring back the assassin's body!"

"Of course it's fine, but are you planning to go on business just like this? Even if my son doesn't mind this assassination, will Marquis Changqing give up on tracking down the person behind the scenes because the assassin is dead?" Jian Chong said. Leaning back on the chair behind him, he said comfortably: "I'm afraid even your Lord Fu Yin can't explain it to Lord Hou?"

Chang Qingyi naturally knew that this matter was of great importance, and he was no longer a small police officer who could intervene at will, so he could only say: "I don't know what advice Brother Jian Chong has to help me not be punished by the governor?"

"It's very simple. I'm following the order of my young master to track down the perpetrators behind the scenes. You can go and investigate with me!" Jian Chong said as a matter of course.

"It's not that I don't want to help you, brother Jian Chong, to continue the investigation. It's that Mr. Fu Yin ordered me to find the assassin within three days and interrogate him thoroughly. But now that the assassin is dead, I consciously have to investigate within three days. It's really hard to kill an assassin!" Chang Qingyi said with a wry smile.

Originally, Chang Qingyi and the Shuntian Mansion's detectives arrived at the assassination site late and did not have enough clues. Now that the assassin is dead, it is no exaggeration to say that they are at a loss as to how to proceed with the investigation.

But Jian Chong replied indifferently: "You don't have any clues, but I do! It's really difficult to find the person who killed the assassin within three days, but it's not impossible!"

"So, brother Jianchong, you have already thought of a good plan?" Chang Qing said with a smile on his face, "Brother Jianchong, please wait for me!"

After finishing speaking, Chang Qingyi was about to bow to Jian Chong, but was stopped by Jian Chong: "Don't, don't, don't... I can't stand your salute, we just take what we need. I obey your son's order Find out about this case, but after all, my subordinates and I are not official servants. It is not good to enter some places without authorization, and we need you from Shuntian Mansion to come!"

After finishing speaking, Jian Chong glanced at Chang Qingyi inexplicably, and poured him wine himself.

As soon as Chang Qing heard Jian Chong's words, he immediately reacted. It turned out that this is the case. After understanding Jian Chong's meaning, he also had a bottom line in his heart, and he said boldly: "Brother Jian Chong, just speak directly. You want to check that This place, we are obliged to go to this place!"

"Xiaoxiang Garden!" Jian Chong replied decisively, staring at Chang Qingyi pretending to be serious.

"Ah! Brothel!" Chang Qingyi shouted in surprise.

……

"That's the way it is, brother Chang, you and the brothers outside the door!" Jian Chong pushed open the door of the private room and walked out while speaking.

"Brother Jianchong, you are being polite. We are duty-bound to deal with such trivial matters, and we can give you an answer soon, Brother Jianchong!" Chang Qingyi just heard Jianchong said in the private room that he wanted them to check the brothel. The reaction was to refuse, and after Jianchong told Chang Qingyi about the clues he had found in detail, Chang Qingyi agreed that he would go to the brothel.

Jian Chong laughed and said: "Then I will wait here for your good news, Brother Chang!"

After Chang Qing nodded to Jian Chong, he waved his hand and said to the brothers he brought: "Brothers, let's go!"

A group of officials left the restaurant in a mighty manner, and walked in another direction. Jian Chong, who stayed where he was, raised his mouth slightly, looked at the back of them leaving with a smile on his face, then turned and went upstairs.

A policeman who had just left the restaurant quietly asked Chang Qingyi: "Boss, where are we going to investigate the case?"

Chang Qingyi glanced at him indifferently, and replied softly: "Xiaoxiangyuan!"

"Ah! This..." The little policeman who asked the question was startled at first, and then a little happy, his face turned slightly red. Naturally, the other policemen also heard Chang Qingyi's words, and they were secretly happy in their hearts.

"What are you thinking about? Concentrate on me, we are going to investigate the case!" Chang Qing sternly shouted at his subordinates with a straight face.

A group of subordinates immediately cleaned up their expressions, and replied equally solemnly: "Yes, boss!" As for what they think in their hearts, only they know.

Only Chang Qing could not be happy in his heart, because he knew that he might offend people if he went there, but there was no way the sky would fall and Mr. Fu Yin would support him, so he could only follow the orders.

On the other side, Jian Chong, who went upstairs, entered the private room where Yan Ce was, and bowed to report: "My lord, this subordinate has already handed over the assassination matter to the arresting officers of Shuntian Mansion, I believe that even if they can't find anything, It will also alarm the murderer who killed the assassin, thinking that he has been exposed and change his base, then I can continue to investigate!"

Yan Ce opened his folding fan smartly, took a sip of his wine and said, "Good job, sit down and have a few drinks with me!"

But Jian Chong immediately half-kneeled on the ground and respectfully said: "This subordinate dare not!"

"Tsk!" Yan Ce frowned slightly, then quickly let go, and said calmly, "Jian Chong, how long have you been with me?"

"My lord, it's been three years and five months!" Jian Chong still knelt and spoke.

"Really? It's been more than three years!" Yan Ce sighed softly, and then said seemingly indifferently: "Then you have been with me for so long and still don't know what I am?"

Jianchong replied with some sweat: "Young master treats his subordinates with love, gentleness and humility, and never scolds us for no reason. The subordinates respect you from the bottom of your heart, and only want to share your worries with all one's heart. It's just that there is a difference in respect. , the subordinates must not break the etiquette!"

"Alas!" Yan Ce sighed helplessly, drank the wine in his hand proudly, and said with the air of a superior: "Since you value dignity so much, then I will order you to take the wine in front of you. Drink a glass of wine, and if there is a drop left, it will be dealt with according to the family law!"

Jianchong was overjoyed, and bowed to Yan Ce to thank him: "Thank you, Young Master, for giving me the wine, and my subordinates will take orders!"

After finishing speaking, Jian Chong took the wine glass that was already full on the table and drank it in one gulp.

Yan Ce smiled silently and said, "Okay, go and see where Jian Lie has been. He hasn't come back for so long, and I don't know if it's safe to send Miss Xue Mi back to the Hou Mansion!"

Jian Chong comprehended and said: "Young master, Miss Xue is an auspicious person, and she will return to the Hou's mansion safely. This subordinate will go down and join Jian Lie."

After finishing speaking, Jian Chong turned around and left the private room, and ran down the restaurant to inquire about Jian Lie's whereabouts.

Looking at the back of Jian Chong leaving, Yan Ce couldn't help sighing in his heart, it's really sad that he doesn't have a sincere friend around him who can drink with him!
