Chapter 732 Su Wuming 31

"Well... okay." Su Wuming whispered, but his ears turned red. He secretly raised his eyes to glance at Chu Hua, and saw her smiling with curved eyebrows, and a sense of inexplicable sweetness surged in his heart.

Chu Hua was secretly pleased when she saw that he agreed. The first step in capturing Su Wuming was to bind him successfully!

In the next few days, Chu Hua really followed Su Wuming like a little tail, closely.

When Su Wuming went to investigate a case, she followed him; when Su Wuming returned home, she followed him; even when Su Wuming went to the study to read, she moved a small stool and sat beside him, calling it "accompanying" him.

At first, Su Wuming was a little uncomfortable, always feeling that there was an extra person around him who was getting in the way. But gradually, he found that having Chu Hua around was not bad. She could always find problems from some subtle clues, and come up with some ideas that he had never thought of, helping him solve the case faster.

Moreover, Chu Hua's occasional witty remarks added a bit of ease and fun to the originally serious investigation process.

Lu Lingfeng received the prince's order and did not dare to delay. He immediately led people to the East Market and the West Market to confiscate Chang'an black tea. The East Market and the West Market were already prosperous, and now it was even more crowded and chaotic.

Shop owners complained bitterly, customers complained, and the scene was in chaos. After all, Chang'an black tea was the favorite of the nobles in Chang'an City and a must-drink every day. Now that it was banned, how could they not be dissatisfied?

What's more, many people have become addicted to this black tea, and the sudden supply cut has made them anxious.

The next morning, the incident of Jinwu Guards confiscating black tea was reported to the police, who accused them of disrupting the market order.

At the morning court session, the censor spoke sharply and denounced the actions of the Jinwu Guards. All the civil and military officials in the court were talking about it, waiting to see how the prince would respond.

However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince remained silent, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

After the court session, Lu Lingfeng was called to the parade ground by General Lu Tong.

"You acted too rashly this time." Lu Tong said in a heavy tone.

"Chang'an Black Tea involves a wide range of people. You conducted such a high-profile investigation. Have you ever thought about the consequences?"

Lu Lingfeng was stunned. Wasn’t this the order from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

Before he could speak, Lu Tong raised his thick eyebrows and opened his eyes wide: "Do you want to say that it was the Crown Prince's order? Do you have a handwritten order? Show it to me!"

Lu Lingfeng stammered: "Oral order..." He didn't have any clear order, it was just a casual order from the prince.

Lu Tong was such a man that he saw through Lu Lingfeng's embarrassment at a glance. He secretly sighed that this boy was still too young and said in a deep voice: "At the morning court today, the emperor asked about this matter, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said nothing. What else do you have to quibble about?"

"Recently, many court officials have died mysteriously. Chang'an Red Tea is probably related to this. Please, General, let me get to the bottom of this matter!" Lu Tong sighed heavily. This Lu Lingfeng, who has great martial arts skills, is always lacking in brains. He rubbed his brows and said helplessly, "I can let you investigate, but I'm afraid that if you do, you will ruin your bright future..."

"I have no regrets!" Lu Tong had already reminded him to this point, but Lu Lingfeng still stiffened his neck with an attitude of "I will go even if there are thousands of people against me."

Lu Tong shook his head helplessly. This kid is so stubborn. Once he makes up his mind, nothing can change his mind.

Lu Tong waved his rough big hand in the air, motioning Lu Lingfeng to come closer.

He looked at the stubborn young man in front of him, feeling mixed emotions. Lu Tong sighed slightly, and lowered his voice and said, "Don't embarrass the emperor. When the time comes, no one can save your life. You can investigate the case and don't use the Jinwu Guards anymore!"

Lu Tong patted Lu Lingfeng's shoulder heavily, turned around and left, leaving Lu Lingfeng standing in the middle of the training ground in a daze. He looked up at the sky, which was cloudless, but the sunlight was a little dazzling, making him feel a little dazed.

……

According to the clues provided by Su Wuming, the yamen runners began a carpet search. After a few days, the yamen runners were all dusty and exhausted.

Just when they were about to give up, one of the yamen runners stumbled upon a patch of freshly turned soil. After digging it up, they discovered a female corpse. Following this clue, the yamen runners found the bodies of the missing brides in several other places marked by Su Wuming.

As the last bride's body was dug out, the air was filled with the fishy smell of earth, rushing straight into everyone's nostrils.

Chu Hua endured the discomfort and carefully observed each corpse. Their deaths were extremely similar, wearing wedding clothes and their faces were tightly embedded with square masks.

The yamen runners of Chang'an County looked at Su Wuming with eyes full of awe. The old detectives who had originally looked down on this disciple of Di Gong also put away their previous arrogance.

One of the detectives rubbed his hands and approached Su Wuming with a big smile on his face: "Captain Su is really a genius! I have been handling cases for many years and have never seen such a brilliant deduction."

Su Wuming smiled faintly and said modestly: "It's just some reasoning skills. Thank you for your praise."

As he spoke, his eyes unconsciously drifted towards Chu Hua, hoping to get some praise from her. However, Chu Hua was fiddling with the corner of her clothes out of boredom, and seemed not to care about his "great achievements".

This girl! Su Wuming sighed inwardly, what a heartless little girl. She had followed him closely before, calling him "Mr. Su" all the time, but now she seemed like a different person.

Could it be that I did something wrong and made her unhappy?

"Lieutenant Su is too modest."

The constable said flatteringly: "Your skills are not something that ordinary people can learn. I hope you can give me more guidance in the future!"

The other detectives also echoed, their words full of admiration. Before, they were a little unconvinced by Su Wuming, the parachuted disciple of Di Gong, but now that they have seen his ability with their own eyes, they understand that "old ginger is still spicy".

Su Wuming was carefully observing the bride's body, trying to find a clue from the gap between the mask and the face.

"Lieutenant Su..." County Magistrate Yuanlai limped into the county office.

"County Magistrate Yuan, why are you here?" Su Wuming put down his gloves and bowed to Yuan Lai.

"I heard it, I heard it, County Magistrate Su inherited Di Gong's true teachings and has great foresight. He managed to find all these bodies. Do you have any clues about the culprit?"

"You are too kind, County Magistrate Yuan. It was purely accidental to find these bodies. As for the murderer, we still have no clue." Su Wuming bowed.

"It's already amazing. County Magistrate Su has accomplished such a great feat. His career will soon be very successful!"

Su Wuming said modestly: "You are too kind, County Magistrate Yuan. I have only done my best and do not deserve such praise.

"Yuan Lai waved his hands repeatedly, praising Su Wuming for being young and promising, with a bright future, and a pillar of the court.
