[Quick Wear] Daily Cleansing of Trash

Chapter 292 Sir, it’s time to take medicine 10

Miao Wenbi put on special gloves and calmly lifted the white cloth covering the corpse.

The rotting body of the third brother came into view.

Miao Wenbi checked carefully and finally found a flame-shaped pattern in a hidden place on the inside of the third brother's left arm.

Then he began to examine the injuries on the body.

"This man has seven holes on his body. He must have been hit by a hidden weapon like a small stone." Miao Wenbi touched the third brother's neck. "The cervical vertebra is broken. He was killed in one blow. The opponent is a master."

He covered himself with the white cloth again and turned around to see Zhang Lan standing at the door, far away from him.

Miao Wenbi felt helpless and picked up the soft sword and dagger placed aside to observe.

After a long time, he took off his gloves, removed the white cloth covering his face, and walked out of the coroner's room.

Zhang Lan followed behind Miao Wenbi and asked quietly, "Sir, have you discovered anything?"

Miao Wenbi nodded: "These two are indeed members of the Jihuo Society, but the person who killed them is definitely not from the Jihuo Society."

Zhang Lan nodded.

Before this, he had never heard of the Jihuo Society, but Miao Wenbi had explained it to him in detail after he arrived.

Jihuohui is a martial arts sect, but unlike other sects, Jihuohui does not value martial arts qualifications when accepting disciples.

"Whether you are a peddler or a high-ranking official, as long as you pass their test, you can join," said Miao Wenbi.

Zhang Lan nodded: "Then they have great ambitions!"

Upon hearing this, Miao Wenbi turned and looked at Zhang Lan in surprise: "Why do you say that, sir?"

Zhang Lan scratched his head. "Isn't it? The sect's resources are limited, so they must prioritize meeting the needs of those chosen by heaven, and only then can the rest be allocated to others. Therefore, when they accept disciples, they must pay attention to qualifications, so as to ensure the long-term development of the sect."

Miao Wenbi nodded and motioned for him to continue.

Zhang Lan was a little nervous: "But the Jihuo Club is different. Although there are so-called tests, it seems that these tests are very watered down." After all, even someone like Fang Ergou could accept it.

"What kind of sect would be willing to accept ordinary people into its ranks? I think their actions..." Zhang Lan glanced at Miao Wenbi and whispered, "I think they look like a cult."

Miao Wenbi smiled, patted Zhang Lan on the shoulder, and said, "Your Excellency is right. The Jihuo Society is a cult, and one that harbors ill intentions towards our Great Xin Dynasty!"

Zhang Lan was startled by this. He opened his mouth to ask more questions, but finally closed it.

Miao Wenbi was quite satisfied with Zhang Lan. After some consideration, he went back to his room, wrote a letter, and asked someone to send it back to the capital as quickly as possible.

If Zhang Lan is reliable, then he can know some things.

In response to Miao Wenbi's appreciation, Zhang Lan said: Thank you for the invitation, but I won't make an appointment.

He felt that his talent was limited, so he was satisfied with passing the imperial examination and becoming a small county magistrate. He really didn't want to be taken seriously at all.

However, Miao Wenbi thought he was a talent scout. After receiving the reply from the master, he took Zhang Lan aside and talked about some things that ordinary Zhang family members did not know.

Zhang Lan seemed to be listening attentively, but was crying in his heart.

He just wants to be a useless snack!

However, he couldn't just cover his ears and pretend to ignore the turtle's chanting, so he could only listen obediently.

The last emperor of the previous dynasty was incompetent, the people were living in misery, and uprisings broke out frequently in various places.

The founding emperor of the Daxin Dynasty was surnamed Lu. He originally raised horses for a wealthy family surnamed Qiao, but later joined his master in an uprising.

Because Taizu was extremely brave and had made many military achievements, he not only became a general, but also married the daughter of the Qiao family.

At the beginning, Taizu also tried his best. However, after the Qiao family conquered a piece of land, they began to slack off. Not only were they satisfied with living in a corner, but the sons of the Qiao family were also more scoundrels than each other.

Taizu was unwilling to be inferior to others, so he planned carefully and found the right opportunity to seize power from the Qiao family and put on the yellow robe himself.

Afterwards, Taizu led his soldiers to continuously erode other forces, and eventually overthrew the previous Gu Dynasty, killed all the descendants of the Gu family, and successfully ascended the throne.

As for the Qiao family, who were used as a stepping stone by him, they naturally did not have a good ending.

Taizu's first wife, Qiao, saw the situation clearly and asked to leave the family just to leave a trace of bloodline for the Qiao family.

Taizu did not want to give others the impression that he was mean and ungrateful, so he agreed to Qiao's request. Not only did he not kill all the members of the Qiao family immediately, but he also conferred the title of Anle Marquis on the eldest descendant of the Qiao family.

However, after the world enjoyed peace for a long time and Mrs. Qiao died of depression, accidents began to happen one after another among the members of the Qiao family. Some died from falling off horses while racing, while others drowned from drinking too much.

In the end, all the bloodlines of the Qiao family died.

And at this time, Taizu could truly rest easy.

The current emperor is the fourth emperor of the Daxin Dynasty, Emperor Fengqing.

Emperor Fengqing was a kind-hearted man, and as he was the eldest son, he inherited the throne smoothly.

He was not interested in beautiful women, and there were not many people in his harem. His favorite thing was carpentry.

Emperor Fengqing had seven sons. The eldest was the eldest son, but he died young.

The second prince's mother, Concubine Li, is the daughter of the Minister of War. However, the second prince has a leg disease, so he rarely appears in public.

The Third and Seventh Princes were born of the same mother, the most favored Consort Shu. The Third Prince was a master of both civil and military strategy, and the Seventh Prince was the youngest son, so the two brothers were deeply loved by Emperor Fengqing.

The fourth prince's mother, Consort Xian, came from a prominent family, the Zhang clan. Her family background was distinguished and her sons were accomplished. The fourth prince himself was also talented in both civil and military affairs.

The fifth prince's mother, Concubine Hui, was born a palace maid and was not very favored, so the fifth prince was also not very favored.

The Sixth Prince's mother, Concubine De, was the cousin of Emperor Fengqing and was very favored.

Zhang Lan is a descendant of the Zhang family, the fourth prince's mother's family. Of course, as he is from a branch of the family, he has definitely never seen the fourth prince.

However, when his palace examination ranking came out, the Fourth Prince sent him a congratulatory gift, so Zhang Lan still had a good impression of his little golden dragon.

"The Jihuo Society has a wide sphere of influence. We've already found traces of them in many places in the capital." Miao Wenbi frowned. "The Jihuo Society is ruthless in their actions. The Fengyun Building arson case and the Yihong Courtyard poisoning incident are all related to them!"

Zhang Lan was startled: "Really?"

Fengyunlou is a famous restaurant in the capital. It is said that it has a powerful backer. Unexpectedly, one day it was set on fire by a waiter, burning several officials to death. The reason was that the shopkeeper withheld the waiter's reward money, and the waiter held a grudge against him.

Yihongyuan was a brothel. It seemed that two men were fighting for one woman. The loser was so angry that he poisoned the wine, killing many people.

These two cases were the biggest cases that occurred since Emperor Fengqing ascended the throne. All the people involved were brought down, and the capital's Caishikou was covered in blood.

Zhang Lan didn't expect that it was related to the Jihuo Society.

He asked fearfully, "So, what do they want to do in Qingsong County?"

Miao Wenbi shook his head: "I don't know at the moment, but it's definitely not a good thing."

He warned Zhang Lan: "We must be extra careful and not take it lightly!"

Zhang Lan touched his chest and nodded rapidly.
