Chapter 406: Wang Heng Breaks into a Puzzle

Liang Xinming is busy every day: he has to supervise road construction projects in various places, track down the whereabouts of Li Jing and Bai Ying, and the inside story of their disappearance, and pay attention to the progress of General Niu's murder case to see how the imperial court dealt with Zhao Yin.

To be honest, she didn't believe that Zhao Yin was rebelling.

She thought the same as Su Molin: if Zhao Yin had ambitions to rebel, he would never openly offend Su Molin and the Wang family in order to defend Meng Qingquan. His best choice is to marry Su Molin, marry Su Xiang, and befriend the Wang family. After the big thing is done, and then get Meng Qingquan by his side, even if he kicks Su Molin away, it is better than offending Su Xiang and Wang Jiaqiang at the beginning. That's the right decision for a careerist.

But others may not all think the same way.

At present, the evidence is very unfavorable to the Zhao family.

General Niu and Guo Jun are both in the same vein as the Vermilion Bird King.

At this moment, Xu Tao defected to Guo Jun, how can he say it clearly?

Liang Xinming guessed that Wang Heng was coming to Huizhou again.

She stepped up her preparations to join forces with Wang Heng!

In the capital, after Jing Kangdi received the report, he was in a heavy mood.

He wondered if Zhao Yin and Wang Heng had been missing in Mingzhou for more than a year, and whether they had deliberately interfered with Wang Heng's investigation of the case? He also thought of the friendship between Zhao Yin and Geng Zhong, the general of Weihai, did they collude? Then he thought that Meng Yuanxiang had been in office in Mingzhou for several years and had strongly advocated the extermination of pirates, and Zhao Yin had gone all out to defend Meng Qingquan just for the sake of kindness?

After Su Molin exposed Meng Qingquan in the Vermilion Bird Palace, Zhao Yin turned against Meng Qingquan and fell with the Meng family; Immediately after, Guo Jun married Zhao Yin's widowed cousin Lu Junru, and then was transferred to Tongbai Mountain in Jingzhou......

The more Jing Kangdi thought about it, the more suspicious he became.

So he summoned some of his ministers to take counsel.

Not surprisingly, there was a lot of debate.

And Su Xiche and Zuo Duanyang both seemed to have scruples, did not come up with a clear proposition, and were noncommittal to everyone's arguments.

Emperor Jing Kang was irritable and hurriedly recruited Wang Heng into the palace.

Wang Heng is investigating the cause of the death of King Cheng, the sixth prince of the first emperor, and it can also be said that he is investigating Zhang Boyuan, the son of King Xuanwu.

After the death of King Cheng that year, countless people were implicated, and all the eunuchs and palace maids who served around him were all killed by rods, and no one could be found to inquire about the affairs of the year.

Wang Heng cast a wide net and carefully investigated, and finally got a piece of news: On the day of the incident, the first emperor had passed on the six princes, and it was the father-in-law of the first emperor's side who sent a little eunuch. Later, this father-in-law named Xiaosi went out of the palace and is now working as a steward in an imperial village under Lishan Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing.

It is said that he once talked about old things while eating wine with his companions, lamenting that "King Cheng is too worthless", shaking his head and crying at the same time.

Because of this, Wang Heng set his sights on him.

However, when Wang Heng personally took people to Huangzhuang, the fourth father-in-law was already dead, just dead, it was a sudden death, and Zhang Boyuan's son was at the scene.

In the early summer countryside, it is green as far as the eye can see.

In the courtyard of Huangzhuang Field, Wang Heng stood in the sun, facing the polite Xuanwu Shizi, and asked in a deep voice: "Can Zhang Shizi tell the official, what is going on?"

Zhang Boyuan explained: "When this son came, he was already dead. ”

Wang Heng said: "Do you think this official will believe you?"

Zhang Boyuan smiled bitterly: "......"

Wang Heng said: "Let's not mention this matter for the time being, the emperor ordered the prince to stay in the capital, if there is no will, the prince is not allowed to leave the capital at will." Now that the prince is out of Beijing without permission, and he is involved in a murder case, has the prince ever thought about the consequences?"

Zhang Boyuan said: "This prince received news that the fourth father-in-law wanted to see this son, and there was an important secret to tell him, and he also said that someone wanted to be unfavorable to him. Ben Shizi hurriedly sent someone to tell Wang Shilang that he had no time to wait for Lord Wang, so he hurried over first. ”

Wang Heng said: "Why does this official believe you?"

Zhang Boyuan said: "If this matter is done by the son of this world, how can he let the adults catch it right? Isn't this asking for trouble for himself?"

Wang Heng sneered: "The prince is a person who practices martial arts, the strategy of the soldiers, the truth is false, how can this official know that this is not your suspicion and confuse the official?"

Zhang Boyuan said: "Then the adults will check it themselves!"

He didn't say much more.

At this time, Wang Heng would not trust anyone.

Wang Heng did not control Zhang Boyuan as a suspect in the end, this matter is very strange, he did not believe Zhang Boyuan, and he refused to be led by others, but he secretly played this matter to Emperor Jing Kang, and Emperor Jing Kangdi reprimanded Zhang Boyuan.

Wang Heng turned to investigate Concubine Zhang.

Concubine Zhang's maiden father, Huang Zhan, was originally a Taipu Temple Cheng and belonged to the Nine Pastoral Supervisors of the East Palace. The nine pastoral supervisors of the East Palace, who are in charge of shepherding horses and cattle for the use of the crown prince. The six princes of the first emperor were favored, although they were not crowned princes, and the horses and chariots used were all served by the nine pastoral supervisors of the East Palace.

On the day of King Cheng's accident, it happened that Huang Zhan actually had another errand and escaped this catastrophe, and another colleague of Sicheng was implicated and convicted.

Wang Heng felt that this was too coincidental.

If there was no King Cheng's crush on Huang Zhan's daughter, he might not think it was a coincidence, but since King Cheng had a crush on Concubine Zhang Shizi and planned to confess to her, then there was an incident of the horse falling off the cliff, and her father was not implicated, which is a bit of a coincidence.

Huang Zhan was dead, and Wang Heng checked the population of the Huang family and found that Concubine Zhang had a younger sister, who died of illness two months after the princess got married. Wang Heng was suspicious of everything now, so he began to investigate the death of this Huang Er girl.

Huang Er girl has two personal maids, one married the little maid in the family and died in childbirth when giving birth, and the other Qiuyue married the head of the village in the countryside.

When Wang Heng traced it, he found that the head of the village was mediocre in appearance and ability, and his behavior of marrying under the autumn moon was very abnormal. As the personal maid of the second girl, she had the opportunity to marry the young steward of the family, or the children who had a head and face in charge, but she gave up a great opportunity to marry the head of the village she didn't know, and lived in the countryside from then on.

At this time, he found out another important news: Huang Er's girl did not die of illness, but died suddenly for some reason, and the Huang family announced that she died of illness.

Wang Heng made a quick decision and hurriedly went to the countryside to find Qiuyue. However, he went a step too late, Qiu Yue died again, he was killed, and he met an acquaintance at the scene again.

This time, Zhang Boyuan did not dare to leave Beijing, and sent his subordinate Zhang Fulai.

According to Zhang Fu, the son of his family got the news that Qiu Yue knew the clues about King Cheng's death, but he had been targeted by the people behind the scenes, and he had to follow in the footsteps of the fourth father-in-law. The prince sent him to the rescue quickly, and at the same time asked another person to invite Wang Shilang. When he arrived, Qiu Yue had just been killed, and the body was still warm.

Wang Heng's annoyance can be imagined!

Again and again, he felt like a puppet being controlled, like a pawn, unable to rise and fall, and unable to see the whole situation clearly.

The opponent is very powerful, whether it is the sudden death of the fourth father-in-law or the killing of Qiu Yue, it seems very simple, almost let him block the suspect with his own eyes, and replace it with someone else, I am afraid that Zhang Boyuan will be convicted of murder.
