Chapter 440: Worry

After reviewing the recital from the Yinghua Palace, the crown prince and King Pei returned to the East Palace, and at this time, the setting sun shone on their bodies like fire, covering their figures with a layer of glowing warmth. They walked side by side in the light of the setting sun www.biquge.info their faces looked like twin brothers. On the way, King Pei said to the crown prince, "Father, this symptom is a little worrying. With that, he looked at the prince meaningfully.

The prince smiled at him and did not speak.

Back in the East Palace, the prince went into the study alone.

He took out the chessboard and sat on the Luohan bed by the window to play chess alone. He descended slowly, contemplating as he went.

There is something wrong with the emperor's nerves, and in this case, if he doesn't pay attention to it, he will make an unwise judgment. And he is the king of the country, and no one dares to disobey his orders, which is very easy to get into trouble.

If he was completely nervous, the crown prince would not hesitate to ask for the throne, but after all, he still has time to be sober, and he can still do something serious when he is sober. In this way, the prince had to have some scruples.

After all, the crown prince has been immersed in Confucianism since he was a child, and he really doesn't want to do anything to secretly seek the throne, but with the emperor's strange temperament, if he doesn't use some means, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to ascend to the throne smoothly.

The prince gently put down the son in his hand, and his eyes were thoughtful.

The next day, Kong Wuli listed on a piece of paper the tasks he had performed and the people he had killed since he had worked with Guo Mao. After reading it, Zhong Shiqing handed it to Li Yuan and Shen Zhu.

Li Yuan saw the specific description of the murder of Bu Xun's family, and his eyes were fixed on those paragraphs.

According to Kong Wuli's description, because Bu Xun was about to be transferred to Wuwei County, Liangzhou, and that place happened to be under the jurisdiction of Ling Wang Zhao Teng, Ling Wang had long heard that Bu Xun was honest and upright, and because he was deeply afraid that Bu Xun would expose and interfere with his usurpation plan after he took office, he immediately sent a letter to Guo Mao, asking Guo Mao to send someone to ambush Bu Xun in the section of the road where he must pass to take office, and assassinate him when he passed.

After Guo Mao received the letter, he immediately asked Kong Wuli to take twenty people with strong martial arts to an ambush in a remote area outside the capital, waiting for the carriage to pass by.

Kong Wuli's testimony continued: "We left immediately after killing Buxun and his wife, Buxun's son, and their descendants, and did not dispose of their bodies."

Then, the whereabouts of these corpses must be investigated by the Third Division, and Li Yuan's identity will soon be revealed.

Li Yuan's heart couldn't help but tighten.

Shen Zhu sensed Li Yuan's nervousness, but because he was in the hall, he didn't ask why.

After they finished reading these confessions, Zhong Shiqing took these pieces of paper back to his desk, stared at Kong Wuli and asked, "Do you remember how long it took for it to rain after you killed the Buxun family?" ”

This is a heavy rain that is rare in ten years, so Kong Wuli specially mentioned it in his confession.

"About a quarter of an hour later, the rain was so heavy that their bodies were left on the side of the road by the Dawang River, which would have been strong enough to wash them all away." Kong Wuli replied.

Zhong Shiqing immediately replied: "Not necessarily, when the people of the imperial court went to the scene to observe, they found that the carriage was still there, not only the carriage, but also some clothes and daily necessities. The carriage was heavier, and if the corpses could have been washed away, it would have been impossible for the clothing and daily necessities that were lighter than the corpses to be washed away, so it can be concluded that the corpses had not been washed away, but had been disposed of in secret. ”

Li Yuan was both nervous and relieved when he heard this, and his mood was extremely complicated for a while.

He was pleased with Zhong Shiqing's meticulous and step-by-step analysis of the case, and he was nervous that if he continued to extrapolate like this, he was afraid that he would soon find out the whereabouts of Bu Xun's family's body.

Sure enough, Zhong Shiqing then said: "Now, let's discuss the whereabouts of the corpse of the Buxun family." Although this is not the most important issue in this case, from the point of view of legal procedures, if the body is not found, it means that the evidence has not been collected, and the case cannot be closed. ”

Li Yuansui asked Zhong Shiqing: "But the evidence of Kong Wuli's guilt can be established, right?" ”

Zhong Shiqing said: "This will only be determined after the triage of the three divisions." ”

Although Li Yuan was a little apprehensive in his heart, he also knew that it was not appropriate to say more at this time, so he closed his mouth.

After returning to his residence, Shen Zhu came to find Li Yuan.

Shen Zhu opened the two big chicken legs he bought and handed one to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan took it, but didn't eat it right away.

"Do you have something on your mind?" Shen Zhu asked while nibbling on the chicken legs.

Li Yuan shook his head.

Shen Zhu smiled: "Don't fool me, I can see it." Ever since Kong Wuli was brought to justice, you have often been distracted. You put so much effort into this case before, didn't you just want this case to be solved? Shouldn't we be happy that the prisoner has been caught? ”

Li Yuan sighed heavily, not knowing how to say hello to Shen Zhu.

Shen Zhu stretched out his hand and patted Li Yuan's back and asked, "Did you encounter any tricky problems?" ”

Li Yuan looked at Shen Zhu and pondered in his heart.

Do you want to tell Shen Zhu about this?

He and Shen Zhu have also known each other for nearly two years, in the past two years, they have investigated cases and lived together, and their relationship is better than that of their own brothers, and Shen Zhu is also very righteous, so there is nothing wrong with telling him that he wants to come, right?

Moreover, as the case progresses, his identity will be exposed sooner or later.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan smiled and said: "In this life, no matter how good or bad a person is, he actually brings it on himself, and he can't blame anyone, right?" ”

Shen Zhu was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Yes." ”

"So, for those who have deeply hurt themselves, can they be spared?"

Shen Zhu immediately put on a serious face, and said seriously: "This depends on the specific situation, if it is a matter of human life, it must not be let go, if it is not serious to this point, it can be appropriately tolerated." ”

Li Yuan nodded thoughtfully.

"Kong Wuli once hurt you?" Shen Zhu suddenly asked.

Li Yuan was startled, and instinctively shook his head and said, "No." ”

Shen Zhu didn't ask again.

There are some things that the curiosity of others may be a kind of torture for the person concerned, after all, there are some scars that people are unwilling to reveal in their lifetime.

However, Shen Zhu still captured some information from Li Yuan's reaction, so he was more sure that there was some relationship between Kong Wuli and Li Yuan, and even boldly guessed that Li Yuan had something to do with Bu Xun's case.

Shen Zhu became vigilant and decided to pay close attention to the progress of the case.

Not for anything else, just to be able to provide some help when Li Yuan needs help.

He guessed that Li Yuan had a last resort in his heart.
