The constable glanced around the medical hall before quickly locking his gaze on Li Tongzhen.
Seeing Li Tongzhen dressed like a beggar,
a group of constables were momentarily stunned.
The deceased Zhu Xicheng, whom they were aware of, was a well-known merchant in the nearby markets, corpulent and rather skilled. How could he be beaten to death by such a small beggar?
Could this be a misunderstanding?
Filled with doubt, the constables didn't think much further and stepped forward, intending to take Li Tongzhen to the Office for questioning.
With the current emperor missing and the court in turmoil, they did not wish to face any incidents at this juncture.
Otherwise, if they attracted the attention of someone with ulterior motives, they would not come out better off.
The constables promptly advanced, about to arrest Li Tongzhen.
