Hongli kept talking: "Is it useful to ask?" Nala didn't say half a word at all, so it was better to save this effort and look for clues from the other side. ”

Hongyang thought about it, and then said: "On the other hand, what the fourth brother said refers to the little eunuch who died. ”

"Yes, it's a pity that I was a step late just now, otherwise I would have been able to catch the mouth, when I mentioned Hongshi just now, Nala looked a little uncomfortable, this person should be sent by Hongshi, maybe we can find Hongshi's hiding place on him."

Hongtian nodded, and then said, "Then do you want to sue the concubine Niangniang for this matter?" ”

Hongli thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, let's see how many clues we can find first." However, I don't understand how Hiroshi's secret guard infiltrated the palace. ”

After arriving at the duty room of the Ouchi guards, Liu Hu greeted him and said: "Fourth elder brother, my subordinates just checked the body of the person just now, he is indeed a eunuch, and the wound of the body is still very new, he should have entered the palace not long ago." ”

Hongyang said on the side: "Just now I wondered how the secret guard could sneak into the palace without being known, but now I understand that as a eunuch, the price is big enough, but it is really unexpected." ”

Hongli said: "Do you know his name?" ”

After Liu Hu shook his head, he said to Hongtian next to him: "You go to the Internal Affairs Office and invite the steward who is responsible for registering the new eunuchs in the palace and let him recognize this person." ”

"Okay." Hongli agreed to leave quickly, and after a while, a slightly chubby eunuch hurried over, and through his identification, Hongli and the others knew the name of this person and the person who was responsible for introducing him in the first place.

followed this line all the way down, and finally found Zhou Li's body, and Hongli immediately transferred Zhou Li's file out through the Guò Ministry of Officials.

After some careful investigation, it was found that in Zhou Li's official career, there was the shadow of Yingge, in other words, Zhou Li was probably also Yingge's chess piece placed in the court, but because the official position was small, so he missed it during Yinzhen's thorough investigation last time.

Hongli knocked on the file spread out on the table and said: "Obviously, this Zhou Li is the one who arranged for Changlu to enter the palace, he should know where Changlu came from, fourth brother, he should hurry up and send him over to ask." "Changlu is the name that the dark dove took after entering the palace.

"Yes, I have to ask, but to avoid recurrence, I'd better go over it myself." After that, he said to Hongday, "Do you want to go together?" ”

"It's okay left and right, let's go with the fourth brother, I hope this time I can ask about the whereabouts of Hongshi, so that he can always make a trick behind our backs, just like this time, he asked people to enter the palace to find the Nala clan, I don't know what conspiracy to discuss, from that day on, I always feel unstable in my heart, as if something is going to happen."

Although Hongli didn't say anything, he felt the same way, got up and said, "Without further ado, let's go." ”

When the two appeared in front of Zhou Li and identified their respective identities, Zhou Li welcomed the two in fear, and said carefully after serving tea: "I don't know what the prince and Lord Belle have to do when they come to find the lower officials?" ”

Hongli took a sip of the somewhat bitter tea and said, "This king asks you, do you know a eunuch named Changlu." ”

Zhou Li panicked in his heart, he never expected that Hongli and they would come for this, so he reluctantly settled down and denied it: "The name Changlu, Xiaguan has a tight ear, and he has never heard of it, let alone knows it." ”

Hongyang flicked the brocade robe on his body and said: "Zhou Li, don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, you are looking for someone to introduce Changlu to the palace, I and Prince Bao both know it, I advise you to recruit from the truth." Don't think that if you don't admit it, we can't do anything about you. ”

Zhou Li rolled his eyes and said with a dry smile: "Yes, Xiaguan remembered, Changlu is a distant cousin of Xiaguan, I haven't seen him for more than ten years, I suddenly entered Beijing a few days ago, saying that the family is really poor and can't open the pot, he wants to enter the palace as a eunuch, although the six roots are not complete from now on, but at least he can have food and clothing, and he doesn't have to starve." The lower officials saw that he was really pitiful, and he thought about his cousin, so he found a eunuch for him to be introduced, so that he could enter the palace, and the rest of the servants really didn't know anything. Lord Belle, he ...... Did he commit a crime in the palace? ”

"It seems that you still don't want to tell the truth." Hongli put the coarse porcelain tea cup on the table and said indifferently: "Since this is the case, please ask Lord Zhou to go to the Criminal Department." ”

Zhou Li hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, this is ...... This is why, the lower official has really said everything he knows, even if he goes to the criminal department, he will say the same thing, and besides, the lower official just introduced him to the palace, even if he really committed something, it has nothing to do with the lower official, and please ask the prince to know clearly. ”

"If it's really your distant relative, it's naturally fine, but as far as this king knows, he is the secret guard left behind by Inge, that is, the one who rescued Hongshi four years ago. Zhou Li, this king really wants to know, when did you have a cousin who was a secret guard? ”

Hongli's understated words were heard in Zhou Li's ears, but they were like thunder, and the strength of his whole body was instantly withdrawn, and he immediately collapsed to the ground.

"Tell the matter as it is, if you lie again, even if this king wants to spare your life, you can't do it, colluding with Hongshi and introducing secret guards into the palace, these two things are capital crimes no matter where you put them."

Zhou Li hurriedly said: "Xiaguan said, Xiaguan said, I just ask the prince to spare the lives of Xiaguan and Xiaguan's family." ”

Hongyang snorted coldly and said, "Now I know that I am afraid, what did I do before." ”

Zhou Li said with a bitter face: "The lower officials don't want to do this, but they threaten the lower officials with the previous things, if the lower officials don't do it, they will reveal the matter, and the lower officials really have no choice, so they do it." ”

Hongyang waved his hand and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and tell me what you know." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhou Li hurriedly agreed, and carefully explained the situation of the dark dove coming to him at that time, however, he didn't know anything except that he knew that Changlu's real name was the dark dove, and he came to the capital to find him on the order of Hongshi and asked him to help him enter the palace.

After listening carefully, Hongli said, "You didn't ask where Hongshi was?" ”

"Xiaguan asked at the time, but the secret dove refused to say, only said that Hongshi was in a very safe place, and Xiaguan didn't dare to ask more."

"What else?" Facing Hongday's questioning, Zhou Lidao: "The lower officials have said everything they know, and they really don't know anything about the rest." For fear that they would not believe it, Zhou Li swore again: "If there is one more sentence, the whole family of the lower officials will not die well." ”

Seeing that Zhou Li even said such cruel words, Hongli knew in his heart that he really didn't know, that is to say, except for the clue of the Nala clan, all the rest were broken.
