Tongtian Di Renjie Episode 24 Plot Introduction
Qu Chong was killed and the sword was stolen, and the guest was attacked by the court
Heifengzhai entertained the guests with his daughter's red wine in Juyitang. Di Renjie drank dullly, and Murongqing also excused that the wine was too good to drink glass by glass. At this time, a group of actors came up to perform a show. The show was about the story of the three swords, but the show was very different from the legendary story of great benevolence and justice. They turned a heart-stirring story into a dark plot of slander and revenge.
The guests onhall and the heads of Heifengzhai looked at each other. The steward of Heifengzhai hurriedly stepped forward to stop them. Several actors were trembling with fright. They argued that Heifengzhai had sent the playbook themselves, and they just acted accordingly. The master hurriedly told the actors to retreat.
At this time, General Shangguan, the court guard at the entrance of Juyi Hall, suddenly ran up in a panic to report to King Pu that Master Qu Chong was killed in the hall. General Shangguan felt Heifengzhai was dangerous and proposed to escort King Pu and Murongqing away quickly, while the others had to stay in Heifengzhai and not leave. Everyone was shocked and moved to the hall at the same time.
Qu Chong fell to the ground in the hall and died, with the Long Yuan sword inserted behind his back. This sword was the treasure previously hung in the martial hall, and everyone was stunned. At this time, the subordinates of Heifengzhai rushed in to report to Jing Wuxian that the Wudian was on fire and three swords were missing. Everyone was shocked and hurried to Wudian. The red and blue women suggested that Di Renjie was good at judging cases, and they suggested that Di Renjie should move to Wudian to see the scene.
At this time, the family members of Heifengzhai have put out the fire in the martial hall, and Jing Wuxian led everyone into the devastated martial hall. Everyone sighed that the three swords that were still there just now were gone. Everyone suspected that the fire in Wudian and the killing of Qu Chong happened almost simultaneously, and they felt that there might be more than one murderer.
When Jing Wuxian returned to Juyitang again, Xiao Mu, the third head of the family, reported that General Shangguan had stopped a man who had come by with a fake invitation, Guan Sheng. The doubt seems to focus on Guan Sheng.
At this time, a man broke into Juyitang alone, and he said he was Guan Sheng. Guan Sheng argued that he was only here to meet Chun Hong, a girl who was close to each other, and Chun Hong was brought over a short time later to prove that Guan Sheng was indeed looking for him. At this time, Guan Sheng knew Di Renjie's identity and told Di Renjie everything he had seen hiding in Juyitang. According to Guan Sheng, when he was hiding in Juyitang, he saw Qu Chong leave and heard Qu Chong scream, but when he turned around, he did not see the murderer at all.
Di Renjie analyzed the situation and concluded that the murderer was the one who was in Juyitang at that time. Master Heifengzhai invited the guests Hua Sanniang and others and the actors of the show to the guest room. Hua Sanniang refused to accept, she clamored that she did not kill anyone and insisted on leaving. When everyone was arguing, Heifengzhai's subordinates rushed to report, and the court surrounded Heifengzhai.
It turned out that General Shangguan received information from the imperial court. The intelligence stated that the death of Qu Chong, the imperial official, proved that Heifengzhai had no sincerity at all, so they wanted to destroy Heifengzhai. Everyone looked at each other and lost their opinions for a while. Without being surprised, Di Renjie asked Master to take the map of Heifengzhai.
After Di Renjie carefully read the map, he sincerely asked Jing Wuxing if he would believe in himself. Jing Wuxing had high hopes for Di Renjie. Di Renjie said his arrangement. He combined the map to let everyone lead the Shangguan general to the valley. They had to adopt a procrastination strategy to delay as much as possible, and then seize the time to find out the mystery of Qu Chong's death.
Di Renjie let Jing Wutang arrange it. Everyone in the village deliberately made a mess of their homes, and then discarded some items along the road pretending to run away in a panic. Jing Wuxian heard this and prepared to make arrangements. (Original plot of Lujuba, please indicate the source for reprinting!) To
