Chapter 120: Evidence

"After we got married, on my first birthday, he personally knitted a concentric knot for ......me," Xiao Lechang held several concentric knots tightly to his chest, tears rippling.

Xiao Yizheng sighed deeply and stroked her back.

Xiao Lechang's lips trembled, his eyes moved to the calligraphy and paintings spread out on the table, and muttered for a while: "Take a closer look at these calligraphy and paintings, he did collect and write famous works during his lifetime, and he can also imitate the mounting." ”

Xiao Yizheng's eyes moved, and he picked up a painting and looked at it carefully: the picture of the ladies of the previous dynasty, but the ink color is still new, and then gently pinched, the feel is not right, this pair is by no means genuine.

He turned around and picked up the cutting knife from his desk, carefully made a cut along the edge of the painting, and pulled it open slightly.

Sure enough, a piece of paper as thin as a cicada's wings was quietly fitting under the drawing paper.

He gently pulled it out, and on the paper was Zhang Yan's handwriting.

He took a breath and looked at ten lines, and then picked up another calligraphy work again, gathered his eyes to examine it, and judged that it was indeed a genuine painting, so he put it down and went to check the next painting.

Repeating this, he found a total of ten identical pieces of evidence in a pile of calligraphy and paintings, forming the complete truth of the matter.

Yes, it can be called evidence.

Zhang Yan hid all the details of his investigation of Zhangjia Mine over the years in the calligraphy and paintings given to Xiao Lechang.

Among them, there is his self-description, and there are also some account details of Zhangjia Mine.

Xiao Yizheng read these contents one by one, his face was solemn and silent.

Xiao Lechang watched his series of movements, and gasped when he saw the secret behind the calligraphy and painting.

These objects were quietly placed in a wooden cabinet, and if it weren't for the letters found by Qingxi, I don't know when I would have discovered the strangeness in them.

Xiao Yizheng frowned, glanced at Xiao Lechang, and handed a stack of paper in his hand to her: "Sister should know these inside information." ”

Xiao Lechang took it and didn't wait to read it. She seemed to sense something, and knew that the truth in her hand was terrifying.

"Zhao Xin and I secretly explored the Zhangjia Mine and found that it was not a simple mining place. The mine was very well guarded, and it was not easy to get in and out, so we did not go deeper. But judging from the place where the waste is buried in the mountain behind it, I think the mine is making weapons privately. ”

Xiao Lechang's breath stagnated, his eyes were round, his face was pale, he made weapons privately, and he was complicit in the crime.

She hurriedly lowered her eyes at the information in her hand.

Sure enough, this is also a fact recorded by Zhang Yan.

In addition, he also recorded in detail the time and whereabouts of several handover weapons.

"Shangdu!" Xiao Lechang exclaimed. "I actually went to the capital."

Xiao Yizheng bowed: "My brother-in-law has been investigating this matter for a year, and it is really not easy for him to secretly find out this information alone." In Shangdu, who is hiding the evil intentions? ”

"No, you need to tell your father quickly." Xiao Le said urgently.

Xiao Yizheng bowed: "That's nature." He looked at Xiao Lechang and said, "Fourth sister, these things are confidential things, and my brother-in-law must have taken such pains to hand over them to you in such a way, I must have felt that I could avoid the search of the villains." I think that with Zhang Xun alone, he should not have this ability to reach the sky, and the people of Shangdu must have a high person to manipulate and use him. I don't know what other officials are involved. I think that after dealing with the aftermath of your brother-in-law, you will go back to Beijing on the road and personally hand over these things to your father. Before presenting them to the emperor, these things cannot be known to any other people. ”

Xiao Le thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"As for the matter of Taining City, at this time, the Zhang family has been besieged, and the news will soon reach Beijing, no matter who is behind the scenes, I am afraid that there will be some action."

"Then what are you going to do with the Zhang family?"

"It's not my job to do it according to the law. I am only responsible for handing them over to the government yamen. ”

"But didn't you say that Taining City doesn't know who is involved?" Xiao Lechang couldn't understand why he was so relieved.

The corners of Xiao Yizheng's mouth curled slightly, revealing a sly smile: "Isn't that very good, I jumped out by myself, and I don't have to bother the court to find it again." Immediately, he solemnly said with a solemn expression: "No matter when or what, no matter how special the circumstances, they must not exceed the imperial court system and the legal system, otherwise the degree of damage to the society will far exceed the matter itself." ”

Xiao Lechang frowned slightly, but he didn't fully understand and agree for a while.

Xiao Yizheng got up and said, "Tomorrow, I will go to Zhangfu to meet Zhang Xun." ”

The reason why he didn't arrest Zhang Xun in the first place, in addition to the lack of all the conclusive information, he also waited for anyone to shoot before him, but if Zhang Fu was safe and sound tonight, he couldn't wait for anyone.

Xiao Lechang put away the things on the desk again, and stuffed the stack of papers back to their places one by one.

After doing all this, she remembered Qingxi's condition and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" ”

Xiao Yizheng was stunned for a moment, immediately understood what she was asking again, and smiled slightly: "Just if she has an awkward relationship with me for a while, I will coax her." ”

He said that the clouds were light and light, and he was quite proud.

Zhao Xin was efficient and high, and soon replied that he had found the eyeliner of the princess's mansion.

"It's the head of the princess's mansion. The subordinate watched as he handed a small note to the roadside vendor at the back door. Then I watched the man disguised as a vendor go home and release a carrier pigeon. ”

"Oh? Carrier pigeons?" Xiao Yizheng frowned: "Where did you fly to?" ”

Zhao Xin shook his head: "It's hard to track, but it's definitely not Zhangfu." Now that Zhangfu is besieged, they shouldn't do such a stupid thing. ”

"Someone took it?"

"Hmmm! In the firewood room. When he was taken down, he was very calm and not panicked at all, it was the old man who followed the princess out of the palace from the palace. ”

The wrinkled lines between Xiao Yizheng's eyebrows deepened.

The old man in the palace will never be easily bribed by Zhang Xun to work for him.

The old man in the palace, who can recover him, should also be the powerful in the palace.

"Send someone to keep an eye on the man disguised as a vendor." He commanded.

"You don't need Your Highness's orders, your subordinates have already arranged it." Zhao Xin replied.

Xiao Yizheng is very satisfied.

And when he stepped into the door of the firewood room, the eyes of the old manager, who had his hands tied and his mouth gagged, were still calm.

Xiao Yizheng ordered someone to take what was in his mouth and looked at him with a gentle expression.

"His Royal Highness King Heng has grown up, and he really lives up to his reputation, is thoughtful, and has good means." There was respect and appreciation in the old manager's words, but they couldn't hide his calmness.

Xiao Yizheng smiled: "You have followed the princess for so many years, and you always have affection, how can you harm her?" ”

"The villain has not harmed the princess in the slightest."

Xiao Yizheng's eyes showed contempt, but he didn't want to entangle with him too much, so he said succinctly: "If you hurt the horse, you will hurt the princess, you dare to say that you have nothing to do with that bowl of poison?" ”

The kneeling boss shook his body, but quickly stabilized again, and said for a while: "Your Highness doesn't need to come back and ask me something, the villain won't say anything." The reason why the villain has survived until now and saw His Royal Highness is just to let His Royal Highness pass a word to the princess for the villain, telling her that she has taken care of the villain over the years, and if she is ashamed, the villain will be ashamed of the princess in this life. ”

Xiao Yizheng's expression moved, but it was too late to make a move.

After the old butler finished speaking, he bit his tongue without hesitation and committed suicide.

"Your Highness, this ......" Zhao Xin was both stunned and annoyed, as soon as this person died, wouldn't he have cut off a clue.

Xiao Yizheng's eyes closed and he sighed deeply, "Since the person is from the palace, it should be very good to find it down." That's it, this kind of headache should also be handed over to my father. ”

After leaving the firewood room, it was getting late, busy and tired, and he was afraid of this day, he also wanted to rest for a while, so he ordered Zhao Xin to explain the matter to Xiao Lechang, and told him that if the princess was emotionally unstable, she should inform herself in time, so she went back to the room first to eat with her emotions, and then went to visit Xiao Lechang.

Thinking that Xiao Lechang had been hit hard in the past few days, his heart was uncomfortable.

walked to the door of the house, but the moon shadow helped Qingxi out of the door.

He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Why did you come out, it was windy at night." As he spoke, he naturally started to hold him.

Qingxi glanced at the attendants in the courtyard, hurriedly took two steps back, revealing a look of indifference, and said weakly: "Men and women are not kissed, and please ask Your Highness to respect yourself." ”

Xiao Yizheng hung his hands in the air, stunned, and then chuckled, and said in his heart, I am asking for my own hardship.

Yes, this play is still fully acted, how can I feel crying and laughing

Get.

He smacked his lips, looked at the attendants in the courtyard, turned his back and cleared his throat, as if puzzled: "Can't you accept the teaching of men and women?" Do you know that you are the princess of this king? You and I have been married for almost a year, and there is no such thing as giving or receiving kisses, but there are many things that are honest and intimate. ”

Qing Xiteng's face flushed, how could he say this in public. This disciple! She gritted her teeth secretly.

"Your Highness is cautious, my mind is chaotic, I don't remember getting along with His Highness, even if everyone says that I am Princess Heng, but I have no such memory, Your Highness and I are like strangers, and I hope Your Highness will not speak lightly."

"Oh? Stranger? Xiao Yizheng's heart seemed to be caught off guard by a fine needle, and he twitched slightly. Even though I knew she was working very hard, I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. "Then I don't know, who is the girl's closer?"

Qingxi lowered his head, his lips moved, and he said with a smile: "I only remember that my father and mother wanted to marry me to my brother of the Zeng family." Well, Zeng's brother Xu is going to come to the door soon. After speaking, she raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Yizheng with a smile, with an expression of what can you do with me.

As soon as the smile was raised, Xiao Yizheng had already stepped forward to pick her up and walked into the house.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Qingxi exclaimed, and only the sound of the door slamming shut in his ears was heard.

Outside the door, Moon Shadow sighed and shook her head, helpless.

She knew that Qingxi was very sober, and she only wondered in her heart when His Royal Highness and the princess became so naΓ―ve, and they were not singers in the pear orchard, how could they still be in the mood to dress up in such a situation.

She suddenly thought of Ling Qingsong, if her own young master was here, this would really be a good intention.
