Chapter 696: Arresting People in the Temple
In fact, Zhu Zhimin had already seen clearly that it was Jiang Youzhen, but he still remained vigilant.
"what are you doing?"
Jiang Youzhen said in a wronged tone, "I saw you were asleep, so I covered you with a blanket, fearing you might catch a cold. Put these away to prevent anyone from stealing them!"
Zhu Zhimin then realized that he was still covered with a velvet blanket and smiled embarrassedly.
"Isn't it because you are afraid that someone will come and steal, so you are more alert?"
As he spoke, he looked Jiang Youzhen up and down, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"But you are quite capable! You managed to dodge my tiger claws. This skill of mine is a family kung fu."
Jiang Youzhen smiled, "Your Excellency's Kung Fu is naturally superb, and I am just lucky. However, I have been agile since I was a child, so I also learned some riding, archery and external Kung Fu."
Although Jiang Youzhen did not write details in her confession when Wei Zheng was arrested last time, she was also involved in the arrest, which she had to write. Therefore, she still had to reveal some of it to avoid being illogical.
"You are quite talented!" Zhu Zhimin looked at Jiang Youzhen's frail appearance and suddenly felt that one should not judge a person by his appearance.
"Okay, it's almost dawn, you should rest for a while. Once it's daybreak, we'll pass the sign and enter the palace."
As Zhu Zhimin spoke, he pressed all the evidence under his body. Jiang Youzhen was speechless.
That's fine! If you want to steal, you have to get past Zhu Zhimin. This guy is also protecting you with his life.
Jiang Youzhen was just about to take a rest when he heard footsteps outside the door.
"grown ups!"
The two of them were no longer sleepy. When the guard came in, he said, "Sir, the child has been found."
Jiang Youzhen was immediately delighted, "Where is the person?"
"It was in Fajong Temple that we found the child's trail. Now they have been trapped in a dark room, but they refuse to come out. We were afraid that the woman would hurt the child, so we dared not move and came back to report." The guard said anxiously.
So he hasn't been caught yet? Jiang Youzhen was a little dissatisfied.
"Sir, let's go over there without further delay!"
Zhu Zhimin had already stood up, "Let's go!"
The group soon arrived at Fajong Temple, which was halfway up the mountain, and Jiang Youzhen and his group still had to climb up.
When we climbed halfway up the mountain, the gate of Farong Temple was right in front of us. It was already slightly light, and two guards were standing guard at the gate.
"Sir, the person is in the dark room of the Fa Rong Temple storehouse."
"Where are the abbots of the temple? Why are they in the warehouse?" Jiang Youzhen asked first.
"The abbot and monks of the temple have been driven to the main hall. They all said that the child Li Yue had nothing to do with him and they did not know him."
"Don't know him?" Jiang Youzhen sneered.
Zhu Zhimin sneered, "How could someone who didn't know them get into their warehouse? There should be monks guarding outside the warehouse, right? At the very least, it was locked. How did the two of them get in?"
Jiang Youzhen was very glad that she didn't alert the enemy. It seemed that she had some understanding of those people's habits. They thought that the safest place was the most dangerous place, so they didn't escape from the capital at all.
"We thought so too, so we interrogated the monk who was guarding the storehouse. However, the monk denied it and only said that he went to the toilet during the trip and must have slipped in at that time."
"Is there any witness?" Jiang Youzhen asked.
"No, because he was alone at the time."
After understanding the general situation, they had already walked out of the warehouse.
Qin Yandong came forward when he saw the two of them. He was the first to bow to Zhu Zhimin and said, "Sir, the person is inside, but we dare not rush in."
"Why?" Zhu Zhimin asked puzzledly.
"The woman said that if we rushed in, she would kill the child and then end her life."
Jiang Youzhen sneered, "Will she kill that child? I don't believe it."
Qin Yandong raised his eyebrows, "Why do you say that?"
Jiang Youzhen thought, "If she didn't have this child, she would have escaped long ago."
Qin Yandong didn't understand, but asked, "What should we do now? What if we spread the news in and she really does it?"
"Did she have any requests? There is no secret passage leading to the outside in the dark room, right? Where are the guards who have been monitoring them?" Jiang Youzhen looked around and saw many guards there.
A guard immediately stepped forward and said, "I, Yu Shu, greet you two adults."
Qin Yandong pointed at him and said, "He was the one who discovered it, and he was also the one who supervised it afterwards."
"You will find their process stated again."
Yu Shu explained it in great detail, clearly explaining how to discover it and how to track it after the discovery.
"So, five or six monks came in during this time. Late last night, Li Yue went to the kitchen to look for food. It was also last night that you confirmed that the woman was Li Yue in the portrait."
"Yes!" Yu Shu nodded.
"We have already interrogated the five or six monks. They only came into the warehouse to take things. Two of them who were guarding the warehouse only opened the door but did not go in." Qin Yandong said.
"Are there any of them who have brought something to store their things?"
Yu Shu didn't understand, but still answered Jiang Youzhen's question.
He recalled carefully and nodded, "Yes, there was a man named Zhishen who came in with a small basket."
Qin Yandong was no fool, and he immediately said, "I have asked about this, and they said it was brought in to store incense sticks."
"It's him! This person should be related to that woman." Jiang Youzhen concluded.
"Why do you think so?" Zhu Zhimin asked.
"It's summer now, so food won't last long. This woman lives here with her child, so she must need food."
After Jiang Youzhen said this, everyone understood.
"And the child must have a special relationship with the woman. They have some friendship. He ventured out to get food at night, usually because the child was hungry. If they had an ordinary relationship, he would have just endured and waited until tomorrow. He couldn't wait in the middle of the night, which shows that he loves the child."
After Jiang Youzhen's analysis, Zhu Zhimin and Qin Yandong came to the conclusion that they could attack.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Qin Yandong said as he made a preparation gesture to the people behind him, and quickly attacked inside. His speed was so fast that the people inside could not avoid him.
The woman's sharp voice came, "What are you doing? Don't come over here, or I will kill him."
Jiang Youzhen rushed in quickly and saw that the dagger in the woman's hand was against the child's neck.
Jiang Youzhen moved his hand, and using his sleeve to cover it, a small stone hit the woman's wrist.
The woman screamed in pain, but was subdued the next moment.
"Let me go, let me go!"
Jiang Youzhen looked at the stunned child who looked no more than five or six years old. He was wearing simple coarse cloth clothes and looked a little at a loss, as if he was frightened.
But the next moment he suddenly stepped forward and beat the guard, "Let my mother go, let her go."
