Chapter 139: A Street Scene

Dali Temple Qing traveled to the heavens, was scolded by Emperor Yuan in the early dynasty, and returned to Dali Temple to continue to investigate the case. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

It's just that the assassination of the four princes is a headless case, and the murderers are all dead.

He didn't dare to complain, so he could only interrogate the people of the day separately according to common sense, and the fourth prince Chu Zhaoyu was lying on the bed to recuperate from his injuries, so he couldn't find it.

He asked the chief of the guard of the four princes and a few guards to verify the situation that night, and then asked Yan Lie and the Zhou brothers for questioning.

The guards of the Four Princes' Mansion and Yan Lie both mentioned that during the fight, the five black-clothed masked men used military swords against the enemy to cover up their identities, and only later did they use real kung fu at the moment of life and death.

You Tianfang felt very suspicious, ordinary people wanted to use the sword technique in the army, but it was not possible to use it.

He checked the identities of the men in black one by one, and after this careful investigation, he really found one, and one of them turned out to be an abandoned slave of the Yan Mansion.

When Yan Ning found out about Yan Zhong, he asked Yan Mingde and the Qin family to clean up the slaves in the house.

Yan Mingde kills people on the battlefield without blinking, but he is merciful when he goes off the battlefield. If it were in the hands of Lin Wenyu or Chu Zhaoye, this kind of suspicious slave would definitely be a killing, but Yan Mingde only expelled them from the mansion.

Yan Ning couldn't say that his father had done something wrong, and he was worried that killing more people would make the people in the house uneasy, so he asked his father to send these people away. Unexpectedly, these abandoned slaves were still used.

Now, this person was found among the five black-clothed people, and You Tianfang judged that someone bought the murder, and this person had a grudge and intended to blame the Yan family.

As for who bought the murderer, he had no clue. The other princes are naturally the most suspicious.

But You Tianfang didn't dare to raise this suspicion, and when he said this, he offended all the princes, so he had to write the investigation into the fold and report it to Emperor Yuan.

After Emperor Yuan took the fold and looked at it carefully, he didn't get angry again, and only asked You Tianfang to continue to check the identities of the other four black-clothed people, and let him retreat.

The identity verification of the abandoned slaves of the Yan Mansion took Chu Zhaoheng out.

Emperor Yuan pondered for a moment in the Qinzheng Pavilion and asked Kang Bao to pass on the decree: Yan Lie was a brave young man who would not retreat in the face of danger, and he was specially awarded the title of Captain of the Sixth Rank of the Imperial Forest Army.

The Imperial Forest Army is the guard of the Son of Heaven, responsible for guarding the safety of the palace, in everyone's opinion, Emperor Yuan let Yan Lie avoid licking blood with the knife to make military merits, but directly gave the official.

When Yan Lie stays in the Imperial Forest Army for a year and a half, and then returns to Yuyang Pass, he doesn't have to start from scratch, let alone become a captain in the army.

This holy decree was handed down, Chu Zhaoye smiled, and his father accepted his proposal.

Chu Zhaohui and Chu Zhaoyu were not very happy, Yan Lie was the prince's cousin, he guarded the palace, didn't it mean that the prince put his hand into the Imperial Forest Army?

Among them, Chu Zhaoyu's mood is the most complicated. Yan Lie saved his life, but his injury was also due to him, but he couldn't tell anyone yet. I don't know how many times I got angry in the house.

After recuperating from his injuries for more than half a month, after entering Layue, Chu Zhaoyu was able to get up and walk slowly.

Concubine Liu in the palace was so worried that she sent people to visit almost every day. In order to avoid worrying about his concubine, Emperor Yuan brought Chu Zhaoyu into the palace and let their mother and son meet, so that Concubine Liu could raise the baby with peace of mind.

Chu Zhaoyu was summoned, and hurriedly asked people to prepare a carriage and enter the palace.

The city of Kyoto in Layue is covered in snow, and there is a snow almost every other day during these days, and the horse-drawn carriage is on the road, making a creaking sound.

When the Four Princes' Mansion comes out, it is the West Street of Kyoto, and there are not many people shopping here. Therefore, Chu Zhaoyu's carriage traveled very fast.

The carriage walked for a while, and the eunuch who was sitting in front of the carriage and following the four princes saw an acquaintance, "Your Highness, look, isn't that Li Xiang from the Three Princes' Mansion?" The one next to it, it seems to be Imperial Doctor Hong? ”

Chu Zhaoyu was naturally not interested in a minion, but the three words of Imperial Physician Hong made him interested.

He lifted the curtain of the car and looked in the direction that the eunuch said, and sure enough, he saw Li Xiang, a small eunuch in the Three Princes' Mansion, talking to Imperial Doctor Hong.

The two of them stood behind a pillar in front of a pharmacy on the corner of the street, and they would not have seen it unless they looked closely.

This Li Xiang is the apprentice of Li Gui, a close confidant of Chu Zhaoye, although he is young, he can be in the Three Princes' Mansion, but he is not as good as an ordinary little eunuch.

Chu Zhaoyu looked at it for a moment, looking at Imperial Physician Hong and Li Xiang, it was not the first time they met, Li Xiang was a little eunuch, what could he do with Imperial Physician Hong? Chu Zhaoyu thought that Chu Zhaoye was in trouble, but what could his third brother do, to see Imperial Doctor Hong often? Don't you want to be summoned into the house yet, you want to meet outside?

Chu Zhaoyu was already suspicious, he summoned the chief of the guard and asked him to arrange for someone to follow Imperial Doctor Hong and Li Xiang, and continue to the palace by himself.

Emperor Yuan saw that Chu Zhaoyu was still walking a little crookedly, so he asked him to carry a recliner and send him to Qi Fang Palace.

Concubine Liu has been pregnant for nearly five months, and compared with the last time Chu Zhaoyu saw her, her belly is not big, and her face is very good, ruddy and delicate.

She saw Chu Zhaoyu coming in on a recliner, wiping her tears in distress, and naturally she was even more sad when she mentioned that Nan Anbo's family was wiped out. It's just that in the palace, even if her father dies, she can't wear filial piety, let alone send a funeral.

Chu Zhaoyu sent someone to Nanzhou to take care of the funeral for Nan Amber's family, and stayed there to watch the trial by the way. Seeing that his mother was so sad, he hurriedly comforted him, and said that his father had issued an order that the murderer must be arrested to avenge his grandfather's family.

Concubine Liu wiped away her tears, as early as when it was confirmed that Nan Anbo was destroyed, she had cried and fainted several times, and now, her mood has calmed down a lot.

"Mother, you still have my little royal brother in your belly, you must take care of your body." Chu Zhaoyu persuaded.

"Don't worry, Imperial Doctor Hong just came to help me ask for peace this morning, and said that everything is fine. But you're really lazy, you're going to kick people in the stomach when you're five months old. It is said that if a girl moves late, she may be pregnant with a princess. Speaking of the child in her belly, Concubine Liu showed a loving smile.

Even if she is really a princess, she doesn't dislike it, she already has a son anyway.

Chu Zhaoyu also thought so, and joked, "It's a royal sister, my father must like it too, and you don't have to complain about your son's intimateness, mother." ”

He comforted Concubine Liu for a long time, seeing that she was in a better mood, and asked casually, "Mother, do you think Imperial Doctor Hong can be trusted?" ”

"Imperial Doctor Hong is an old man in the palace, and when I was pregnant with you, he was the one who saw him to protect the fetus."

In this palace, Imperial Physician Hong has always been neutral and never gets involved in the inner palace fighting. He is good at internal medicine and gynecology, and when the palace concubines are pregnant, they will see him.

Chu Zhaoyu also knew this, but the scene he saw outside the palace today still made him feel a little uneasy. (To be continued.) )
