22 Deaths At The Parade

They saw one of the scholars, Li Wenzheng, who was proudly riding his horse just now, laying under the horse covered in blood. Cheng Siqian and Yang Huang stayed beside the scene, looking at Li Wenzheng in a pool of blood with horror. 

An ordinary-looking young man in green robe was standing aside with a blood-stained dagger in his hand. He was surrounded by the imperial forest regiment who reacted immediately.

Feng Ze was shocked, and jumped down from the window.

Seeing him flew down the window, Yang Yiting sighed secretly. How convenient it would have been for her to be able to jump down a three-story building just like that. Without any further delay, she rushed down the stairs with Xie Ming Yu.

Upon arriving at the scene, the man in the green robe had been restrained by Feng Ze and was escorted by two officers from the Imperial guards. He didn't struggle, but was just staring at Li Wenzheng on the ground.

Yang Yiting approached Li Wenzheng who was lying in a pool of blood, knelt down to check his injuries, frowning slightly. He was dead, injured in the waist and abdomen, damaging his spleen. She shook her head to Xie Ming Yu and said. "Dead."

Hearing this, the man in green robe suddenly laughed. 

Yang Yiting looked up and saw his abnormal expression. With a lightning thought, she quickly shouted. "Hold him!"

It was a pity that it was too late. As soon as the killer gritted his teeth, his body slowly slumped to the ground, and he lost consciousness.

Yang Yiting stepped forward to check the man's condition, and asked Feng Ze to watch the scene, paying attention to whether there were any suspicious people at the scene.

The man in the green robe was dead. There were no obvious wounds on his body. Everything on the surface of the body was normal, and it seemed to resemble the death of the fake Du Yu.

While she was concentrating on the inspection, Lu Ziqing hastened to the office with a Justice department clerk when he received the report. When he learned about the situation at the scene, his face instantly turned black. The fake Du Yu case was still there and they hadn't gotten a clue, and now the newly-appointed civil scholar of the Dasheng Dynasty had also died. The impact of this death was even more serious than the previous one.

Li Wenzheng was probably the most unlucky number one scholar in the history of the Dasheng Dynasty. He died in less than a day of becoming a civil scholar. It was a great tragedy for Dasheng.

Lu Ziqing felt even more depressed when he saw Mo Xin, who was looking at the murderer's body. Whether it was the fake Du Yu or the Mo Xin in front of him, he couldn't find out their true identities. 

For a moment, he felt that this Mo Xin, who just came out of nowhere, was highly suspicious. So he sullenly said. "Take away the two corpses, and take away all the suspicious people here, including him. Take him with them."

Who? Yang Yiting looked at Lu Ziqing in disbelief. Was Lu Ziqing arresting her now? Was his brain working okay? Then she asked calmly. "May I ask why you're arresting me, master Lu?" 

Lu Ziqing said slowly: "Since we're taking down all the suspicious people around, we're arresting you too as an unidentified person."

Yang Yiting was helpless. If she had known this, she would have first discussed this with Xie Ming Yu, and get a fake identity to help her confirm her identity. When it came Xie Ming Yu's reputation, no one would question it.

"Master Lu, you have no basis to arrest him. How can you just take people away at will?" Xie Ming Yu questioned. Only he knew Mo Xin's true identity. If Yiting'er was taken away by Lu Ziqing, the consequences would be disastrous due to her identity.

Feng Ze also stared at Lu Ziqing disapprovingly, placing himself in front of Yang Yiting, obviously trying to prevent Lu Ziqing from taking her.

Lu Ziqing was used to giving strong orders, and he never took back his given orders easily. He ignored the two people's stopping him, and continued to solemnly command the officers on the side. "What are you all waiting for? Take him into custody."

Just as the officers stepped forward to arrest Yang Yiting, and Feng Ze and Xie Ming Yu were about to stop them, a low male voice sounded in the area. "Who dares to arrest him?"
