Chapter 834 The Eve of the Decisive Battle

It was not until the second day that Sun Tu returned home. But as soon as he entered the door, he saw Yaer and Hu Rong coming out of the hall in the front yard. It seemed that both of them had been waiting there and had not yet gone to the back yard to rest.

After coming to the front and after, the two women asked at the same time without waiting for him to say something: "Third brother (Sanlang) you are not injured, why are you back now?" Obviously, they already knew about the assassination during the day, and were worried that they had been waiting here.

Sun Tu felt warm and hurriedly reached out to put his arms around their slender waists and said, "It's just a few sluts who want to plot against me. It's nothing, how could it hurt me?" In an understatement, he brought the actually quite dangerous assassination over: "You, you have to pay attention these days, I'm afraid those people will be detrimental to you after I miss it."

"Don't worry, third brother. Since you reminded us, we have been staying at home and never went anywhere. Even my mother wanted to invite us to talk the day before yesterday, but I refused." Ya'er smiled and said.

Hu Rong said carelessly: "It was Ya'er who has been blocking me. If I were to make the decision, I really wanted to go out and lure them out." Although she had been married to Sun Tu for several years, the children in the world still retained a lot of anger. After learning that someone was going to be unfavorable to her family, she even had the intention of counter-attacking her.

When Sun Tu heard this, he felt moved at first, but then he shook his head and said, "This is too dangerous. I am far from the point of letting you take risks for me. So Sanniang, you should listen to Ya'er and stay at home together. I'm more at ease with you by their side."

The last sentence is to prevent Hu Rong from doing anything randomly. Using Yaer and Hutou to restrain her is the most effective method. Sure enough, when Hu Rong heard this, she became eager to try and was also indifferent: "Then let's do it according to Sanlang's wishes. I will stay by their side." As she said that, she looked down at her still flat belly helplessly. Why is she so unscrupulous? She has been together for a few more months and has not made any noise. She really envies Yaer.

Sun Tu really didn't notice this daughter's thoughts, but just said curiously: "Where is the tiger head?"

"He originally wanted to wait for you with us, but then he became sleepy, so I asked someone to take him back to the room first." Ya'er smiled: "Tonight I promised Hutou to sleep with him, so third brother, you can go to Sister Rong's place to rest tonight." As he said that, he looked at Hu Rong, who was already blushing, and walked in quickly. She naturally knew Hu Rong's thoughts very well, and was happy to help the other party realize his wish.

At this time, the remaining two people still didn't understand what Ya'er meant. After being a little embarrassed, they looked at each other and smiled. Sun Tu was quite happy. It was the best thing for him to be close to his daughter as close as a sister and rarely fight openly and secretly. Otherwise, if he had to intrigue with many enemies outside and had to deal with two jealous wives at home, he would have no peace.

After blushing, Hu Rong quickly showed the boldness of her children in the world and quickly grabbed his hand: "Sanlang, let's go back to the house now, I want to see if you are injured."

Sun Tu smiled and then reached out and hugged her tighter. But just as they walked towards the inner courtyard, Cui Lue Shang's voice came from beside him: "Mr.

Yesterday, Cui Lue Shang and his family had moved into Suntu's mansion and settled down completely, which was a relief for his heart. However, he was also grateful and did not hide in the Marquis' Mansion like his wife and children and not go out. Instead, he went to Kaifeng Mansion to work as an employee early this morning, and then found an excuse to run to Yang Huaichang's house for a careful visit. Now, there is something important to report to Suntu.

Seeing his solemn look, Sun Tu knew that something was wrong, so he turned around and said, "Old Cui, have you noticed anything?"

Cui Lue Shang took two steps forward and said, "Mr. Marquis, I visited the neighborhood of Yang Huaichang's house. Although his whole family was harmed, there were still some clues. Just a few days ago, before Yang Huaichang was taken down, many suspicious guys appeared near the alley there. It should not be the thugs from that area, but deliberately passed by elsewhere in the city."

After seeing Sun Tu nodding, he continued: "More importantly, on the night when Yang Huaichang was taken to prison, someone heard some strange movements from the Yang family, but because their mansion was closed, the people around him didn't know what was going on. But in the next two days, no one from the Yang family came out again. This matter was strange at that time, but afterwards, it was very strange."

Sun Tu's brows quickly frowned: "There is such a thing? Why haven't you found it before?"

"This... I would have discovered something if we were to investigate Kaifeng Prefecture. However, because this case is quite serious and is related to the families of officials of the Ministry of Justice, the matter was taken over by the Ministry of Justice. As for how they investigated it, we don't know."

This is the disadvantage of overlapping powers of government offices at all levels in the capital. Originally, a case may have been arguably the clues eventually disappeared due to the dispute. But Sun Tu felt even more that this was just someone deliberately disrupting the normal investigation of the case, trying to cover up some truth.

First, it was Yang Huaichang, and then his family. Those people really did everything to avoid finding clues. I think if the Yang family hadn't been in a bustling alley and surrounded by wealthy families, if something happened, it would cause even greater trouble. I'm afraid even these neighbors would be silenced by them?

By this time, Sun Tu had already made his own judgment: "It seems that some things can be connected together. I have always been wondering why Yang Huaichang suddenly committed suicide in prison, and it didn't look like he was killed. Now it seems that this should be because he was threatened, and someone threatened him with his family and asked him to commit suicide!"

"Ah... those guys are so despicable..." Hu Rong couldn't help but shout. Although she had killed people, she always advocated that disaster would not be as good as her family. Unexpectedly, this officialdom is more sinister than the martial arts world.

Sun Tu smiled: "Despicable? Maybe. But the struggles in the officialdom are more dangerous than those in the world, and there is no need to be careless at all, so it is reasonable. As for the evidence, it is just the abnormal movements at home on the day of his arrest that Lao Cui mentioned, and the family had not gone out for many days. Obviously, at that time, his wife and children were controlled by others, and were sent to the heavenly prison after being taken to the token, which made him believe it, and finally chose to die for the whole family.

"What he didn't expect was that those people acted ruthlessly and had no integrity at all. Once Yang Huaichang committed suicide and removed the troubles, he silenced all the Yang family in order not to leave any clues. This fire destroyed the people and all the clues. In addition, the case was taken over by the Ministry of Justice, so it would be even more difficult for these things to be found out."

If these words were said, let alone Hu Rong, even Cui Lue Shang's face changed drastically. If Sun Tu's inference was true, then the cruel and courageous methods of the people behind the scenes would be a bit horrible. This is Tokyo City, and the deaths of the court officials and their families, and dozens of lives.

"Why did they do all this? Just to cover up the truth about Master Zhou's murder?" Cui Lue-shang was still a little confused. It was too unreasonable to create so many horrifying murders for a murder case.

Sun Tu also felt that something was wrong: "It seems that way, but were they really coming to me? Or were they just worried that I could see that they had bigger problems?" After seeing the inside story, the doubts in his heart not only did not dissipate, but became even bigger.

But soon, Sun Tu laughed again: "But I believe that the truth will be revealed soon. Judging from the situation of the Yang family, coupled with my assassination today, it is obvious that they all came from the same group of people. And the only ones who can do such things in Tokyo are the ditch mice in Wuyou Cave!"

After hearing this, Cui Lue Shang made a surprise: "If this is true, these guys will be difficult to deal with. After experiencing the incident a few years ago, they have become more careful in their actions, and with their new backers, it is even more difficult for people to deal with."

"That's because I have not yet targeted them. But since they have found their target, I think their good days are over." Sun Tu curled his lips disdainfully. He was just a group of shameless mice. He even wiped out the large rebels in Jiangnan, but he could not get rid of them. Moreover, he still has military power in his hands now, and as long as he finds an opportunity, he can easily destroy them.

"But they still have a backer..."

"I don't even take Liang Shicheng and Gao Qiu seriously. What if they have a backer or a lie?" Sun Tu sneered again: "I have been led by them during this period of time, so it should be the other way around to let me take the initiative!"

Looking at Sun Tu's eyes with a resolute look and light flashing, Cui Lue-shang was shocked, knowing that his determination had been made, and there would be great storms in Tokyo next. Hu Rong was shaking her heart. At this time, in her eyes, her husband was so charming that it made people just want to fully integrate into his arms.

Although a battle was about to begin, Sun Tu threw everything behind tonight. When he returned to the room with Hu Rong, he did not eat the food that she had prepared early in the morning. He hugged his wife and fell to the bed...
