Chapter Eighty-Four: The West Wind

Ji Gang came out not long after entering the Ouchi, because the emperor had an attack of rheumatism, once this malignant rheumatism attacked, the emperor could hardly see things, this was all the emperor's previous Hu out of the plug, moving to the years, and being invaded by the cold.

Ji Gang walked to the gate of the palace, but his party members Zhuang Jing and Li Chun came over impatiently, the two of them looked strange, and he saw it, so he said: "Have you eaten the tiger whip, one has beaten the other Guan Gong's face?"

"No, Du Du," Li Chun said excitedly, "Didn't you always want to know what was going on in this palace before?"

Ji Gang raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you know? How do you know, you didn't enter the palace at all." ”

When Ji Gang entered the palace, Zhuang Jing and Li Chun were waiting next to the palace gate, but at this time, two palace people suddenly came in with waist cards, and the young girl muttered and whispered - but Li Chun's ears were good, although there was a distance of five or six meters, but he actually heard it clearly, and the thing that these two palace people muttered was actually what happened in the palace recently, but they also spoke in a vague manner, and seemed to be a little scared, what to say" Lu Jieyu caused chaos in the palace, the emperor was ready to investigate and kill her, and Gonggong Ma was not in a good position" In this case, Li Chun pieced together a little, but he really understood eight or nine points.

"I'm afraid that Lu Jieyu from North Korea has committed some taboos," Zhuang Jing said: "I made the emperor angry and asked Ma Yun to investigate the case, but how can this old thing and his subordinates compare to our Jinyiwei's methods of handling cases, and I was reprimanded when I thought about it." ”

The emperor recently had two small cases, did not instruct the Jinyiwei, but called the internal officials to do it, although they were very small things, such as the small temple next to the palace city was on fire, almost burned into the palace wall, although in the end it was found out that it was indeed the internal official who burned incense and accidentally set the fire, but he didn't know that it was the internal official who did it, but the emperor did not let the Jinyiwei to investigate, but called the eunuch who could be used, which itself is a distrust of Jinyiwei or Ji Gang.

In the end, it was because of Li Zhen's case, Ji Gang gritted his teeth and thought, he couldn't clear his suspicions for the time being, so he wanted to listen to this big case and win back the emperor's heart - he wanted to prove that he was much stronger than Ma Yun, no, those eunuchs didn't deserve to be compared with him at all, what point could they compare with themselves? I didn't listen to what I just said, this old thing was sent by the emperor to investigate the case, but it was not good for him, isn't this a good time for him? If it is about investigating the case, Ji Gang is confident that no one in the world has ever dealt with him neatly.

"Oh yes," Li Chun said again: "The two palace people muttered just now, and said that Lu Jieyu's relatives in North Korea are afraid that they are going to suffer, and this time the emperor is very angry, and he will definitely pursue his family for any crime." ”

"Wait a while, I'll think about it," Ji Gang can sit on the top of Jinyiwei, and his ability is not boastful, he doesn't say that he will never forget, but he also has a great memory: "North Korea's Lu Jieyu ...... Her father is the protector of North Korea, Lu Guizhen, how do I remember, this time among the North Korean envoys, there is also an officer surnamed Lu, it seems that he is from the same nationality as Lu Guizhen, and he belongs to Hamxing, Hamgyong Province, North Korea. ”

"North Korea is very small," Ji Gang showed a gloomy smile at the corner of his mouth: "If you come out of the same place, you can't get involved with each other." ”

Regardless of how Ji Gang started his arrest plan, in short, he unknowingly fell into Zhang Zhaohua's trap. At this time, Zhang Zhaohua was asking Sheng Yin, the judge of the Tai Hospital: "Have you seen Concubine Quan's medical case, and what is the cause of death?"

Sheng Yin said: "I've seen it, judging from the differentiation and medication on the medical case, Concubine Quan should have died of heart palpitations." ”

This kind of heart problem, according to Sheng Yin, has an incubation period, "Wen Evil is subjected, the lungs are the first to be committed, and the pericardium is reversed", but the incubation period of Concubine Quan should not be long, so that when the previous imperial doctor asked for the pulse, she did not find it, and after she arrived in Beiping in the eighth year of Yongle, the medical case given by the imperial doctor finally appeared on the medical case, and the words "chest tightness and breathlessness, dizziness and swelling, pulse slippery or knotting" finally appeared.

"When it comes to the onset of the disease, it is very painful," Sheng Yin said, "The patient will be out of breath, and his lips and nails will be purple and black. ”

"No wonder the emperor would be suspicious," Zhang Zhaohua suddenly realized: "What do other imperial doctors say?"

The imperial doctors who followed Concubine Quan to treat the illness all denied the conclusion they had given at the beginning of the case, and all said that "suspected arsenic poisoning", they were thrown into prison by the emperor before, because the emperor felt that they were "ineffective" and were ready to kill them, but this time the poisoning case broke out, so that they found a glimmer of life, if it is confirmed that the Quan family was poisoned to death, then their guilt can be exempted, and they can live.

And the other doctors in the Tai Hospital, like Sheng Yin, knew that there was no problem with the medical case, but since they entered the Tai Hospital to serve the royal family, they knew what to say and what not to say.

Kwon was not poisoned at all, she just had a heart attack, so she died violently, so all these cases are completely untrue, but it is just a case of palace maids fighting for jealousy and indiscriminately pointing evidence, the reason why Park said this to the Kim family is just because she feels relieved - but the emperor will not believe it, even if Sheng Yin tells the facts, the emperor will not believe it.

Because there was no evidence at all, the case was at an impasse, so the wind of torture and looting intensified, and the palace that was temporarily adjusted to detain prisoners has occupied 12 rooms. Those who enter, if they have the slightest doubt and cannot explain it, immediately begin to torture.

This is also a helpless thing, the emperor has reprimanded Ma Yun several times because of this case, but Ma Yun knows that Park refuses to admit to poisoning, she should really not know, because of how she was poisoned, she was knocked unconscious and said it according to what Jin said before, if she is still sober, she can't ask anything, and Lu Jieyu did not admit to the crime of poisoning, and in this case, the most important so-called "silversmith", no one can say the specific location.

He has not tortured Lu Jieyu yet, Lu Jieyu is still a concubine after all.

However, on this day, he happened to meet Ji Gang head-on, and he thought that Ji Gang would just say hello and leave, but Ji Gang stood in front of him and said something that surprised him: "The case in my father-in-law's hands is not going well, right?"

Ma Yun said: "What do you mean by this?"

"Why does my father-in-law have to snatch this hot chestnut," Ji Gang said half-painstakingly and half-threateningly: "Just like the previous poisoning case in the Zhuwangguan, it can be regarded as a deserved thing if it is handed over to Jinyiwei, isn't it? ”

Ji Gang's words made Ma Yun feel that this Master Ji, who was known to be good at figuring out the holy will, seemed to be impatient to take over the work that did not belong to him, he was indeed smart and good, he found the emperor's alienation from him, but it didn't seem clever to use this method to win back the emperor's trust.

Ma Yun felt that it didn't seem bad to let Ji Gang get involved like this, otherwise the emperor would only be staring at himself, and the pressure on himself would be too great, and someone would have to share the emperor's attention.

"Okay, when Lord Ji talks about this, our family also understands," Ma Yun looked at the complacent Ji Gang: "It seems that Master Ji has been prepared for a long time, right?"

"Of course," Ji Gang said: "To be honest, there is a key point in this case, and my father-in-law has not found it." ”

"Okay, okay," Ma Yun said: "I'll go to the emperor, Master Ji, come with me." ”
