Chapter 67: A Thorough Investigation

"I don't know, if there is no conclusive evidence for this kind of thing, no one dares to make a conclusion. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Tang Xu shook his head.

"But it turns out that the palace maid who entered the palace even knows the forage of the royal stable." Tang Xu said with a smile.

"Do you think we entered the palace to enjoy it? In order to be good or bad, you have to learn everything. Xiao Cui glanced at him, Tang Xu's heart tugged, and he hugged Xiao Cui into his arms and said that from now on, he will not let you suffer anymore.

"So, the person who murdered the queen mother still has something to do with the royal stables?" Xiao Cui wo kissed his chin mischievously in Tang Xu's arms, which made his chin itch.

"I don't know, maybe it's just the nearest material, but it should be someone who can get in and out of the royal stables." Tang Xu said seriously, but he couldn't think of who it would be now.

"There is another thing I don't understand, this kind of thing is more dangerous if it stays for one more day, if it is only for the queen mother, how can there be one more? And even if you want to keep it in reserve, how can you be so careless and casual, still in the corner. If another person discovers it today, it is hard to imagine what chaos will be in Concubine Jin's palace now. Tang Xu stared at the scarecrow in a daze, could it be that someone wanted to blame Concubine Jin? That's why it's thrown around. However, Xiuxiu said that no one had lived in that room for a long time, and no one should have entered it. Tang Xu regretted that he forgot to ask if anyone had been there in a panic, if it was really someone else who was to blame, Xiuxiu might have seen someone throwing things.

"These days, I'm afraid that the palace will be very unpeaceful." Tang Xu suddenly thought of a question. Xiao Cui didn't know why, and asked him what would happen?

"If you blame Concubine Jin, someone will inevitably enter that room by means of a head or pretend to be inadvertent, and then find this thing. Whether it is to search for other reasons or inadvertently find out and tell the queen and the emperor later, it will definitely make a big deal. Tang Xu replied. Xiao Cui was shocked when she heard this, and the two of them were silent for a while.

It had only been two or three days, and Tang Xu's conjecture was not peaceful and soon came true, but when it really happened, he was shocked. A small scarecrow was also found in the place where Concubine Jin was resting, the same as the one found in the queen's palace, with her name and birth date written on it, and now Concubine Jin is torturing and searching in the palace one by one. There were two such incidents in the palace in a row, and the emperor Long Yan was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.

How is this possible? Tang Xu was so surprised that he couldn't speak, there was a third scarecrow? I don't know if it's also made of hay from the stables. Before Tang Xu could figure out the truth, the second thunderbolt slashed down again. Xiuxiu, the palace maid in Concubine Jin's palace, was arrested for finding a scarecrow from her house. Wang Fang was also in Xiuxiu's room at the time of the search, because the reason could not be explained clearly, and someone proved that Wang Fang had gone to find Xiuxiu many times, so they were also arrested together.

Although a fourth scarecrow appeared, Tang Xu had figured it out a little now. Someone tried to frame Xiuxiu, but the prisoner found that the scarecrow had been taken away, so he went to release another one. It seems that the scarecrow can have as many as he wants, and this man will most likely be able to enter and exit the royal stables freely, or at least have a relationship with the eunuchs there.

Tang Xu didn't care about it now, there was a tricky thing in front of him, Wang Fang was arrested, and he couldn't come up with a legitimate reason to prove why he was alone with a palace maid. If this matter is not done well, Wang Fang will be charged with coordination, and Wang Fang will be beheaded at that time, and it will affect the entire Imperial Medical Hall, and Tang Xu, who is Wang Fang's recommender, may also be investigated inside and out. The Imperial Medical Pavilion was completely chaotic at this moment, and even a bold Imperial Doctor finally dared to criticize Tang Xu for not seeing people clearly, and discredited the Imperial Medical Pavilion. However, the emperor seemed to want to save some face for Tang Xu, and a few days after Xiuxiu and Wang Fang were arrested, Shi Chonggui actually went to the Imperial Medical Hall in person.

"Tang Xu, the palace maid Xiuxiu intended to murder the queen and Concubine Jin with the technique of disgust with victory. Do you know. Shi Chonggui looked at Tang Xu.

"Your Majesty, whether Wei Chen thinks the palace maid Xiuxiu really did this remains to be verified." Tang Xu replied.

"These things will be investigated, and the widow will only ask you if you know?" Shi Chonggui was a little displeased.

"I don't know." Tang Xu was helpless.

"But some people say you've been to see Xiuxiu, but is there such a thing?" Shi Chonggui asked again.

"Yes, Wechen has indeed seen it." Tang Xu replied honestly, there is no point in lying because there are many people in the palace, and there is no need to lie.

"As a royal doctor, and you have recently been treating the queen mother, why did you go to see the palace maid in Concubine Jin's palace for no reason?" Shi Chonggui looks very patient.

"Because Wang Fangwang's imperial doctor said that Xiuxiu was seriously ill and should be sent out of the palace according to the regulations, Weichen went to check it out for the sake of insurance." Tang Xu said this with a little weakness.

"Oh? Does Xiuxiu have a disease? Shi Chonggui's face changed slightly.

"Nope." Tang Xu replied.

"Then why did Wang Fang tell you such an obvious lie?" Shi Chonggui relaxed at this time, in fact, he was not happy to see Tang Xu involved in this matter, and he didn't believe that Tang Xu would be so rebellious.

"I don't know." Tang Xu lied, but promised to help Wang Fang and Xiuxiu just lip service and no evidence, and if he admitted it, it would inevitably involve more, and it would also be unfavorable to Xiaocui, Tang Xu selfishly chose Mingzhe to protect himself.

"You don't have any questions about that? How could you not ask, you are lying! Shi Chonggui was furious, he thought that Tang Xu was not a confused person, he must have lied.

"Wechen is guilty." Tang Xu's legs trembled a little when he was dumbfounded for a while, and he really couldn't lie.

"You've disappointed me so much." Shi Chonggui said sharply.

"The minister asked the royal doctor, and the royal doctor said that Xiuxiu was suffering a lot in the palace and was in a miserable situation, saying that Xiuxiu begged him to let him out of the palace, and he came to beg the minister. Tang Xu's words were half-false and half-true. Shi Chonggui angrily reprimanded him for being weak and trying to bully the king, Tang Xu had to kowtow again and again, and everyone present was silent and did not dare to make a sound.

"The emperor is angry, and the villain has the courage to say something." Zhang Zhi suddenly walked out and kowtowed to Shi Chonggui.

"Who are you? Want to intercede for him? Shi Chonggui was extremely impatient, and the guards on the left and right drank boldly and wanted to drive him out.

"The villain Zhang Zhi is an apprentice in the Imperial Medical Hall. Offending the saint should be a capital offense, but begging the emperor to listen to the villain's words. "This is the first time Zhang Zhi has seen the emperor, and he is so frightened that he is almost speechless, but now he has a rare opportunity, so he can only risk his death.

"Listen to you first, but if you don't speak well, be careful of your head." Shi Chonggui waved back left and right. In fact, he was also a little entangled, a little palace maid wanted to leave the palace If Tang Xu told him honestly, he might let it go. He was just angry that Tang Xu wanted to hide it from himself, but after he was angry, he didn't want to really punish him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty! Zhang Zhi made a few more heads.

"Your Majesty, although Imperial Doctor Tang is suspected of deceiving the emperor, it is also because Imperial Doctor Tang is kind-hearted and can't bear to see the palace maid Xiuxiu suffer, and feels that this matter does not hurt Your Majesty, so she has never mentioned it to Your Majesty. Although Imperial Doctor Tang is also guilty, but Wang Fang deceived Imperial Doctor Tang and almost made him an unscrupulous accomplice, so the villain thinks that Wang Fang is the culprit, and Imperial Doctor Tang is just being used by traitors, and the crime is especially forgivable. Zhang Zhi said.

"Do you know that Xiuxiu and Wang Fang used the technique of disgust to kill the queen and Concubine Jin?" Shi Chonggui was intrigued by him.

"This villain doesn't know." Zhang Zhiqi is weak.

"And what do you want to say?" Shi Chonggui said coldly.

"Although the villain doesn't know whether the art of boredom is related to Wang Fang, but the Tang imperial doctor has no time to take care of the affairs of the imperial medical hall and the sick eunuch palace maid since he concentrated on the queen's mother's conditioning, Wang Fang relied on himself as the imperial doctor to collect money wantonly, not only collected a lot of money, but even used it as a threat to force the really sick palace maid's family to raise money for it, and if there is no money, he will let him die by himself, which is really a crime that deserves death." After Zhang Zhi finished speaking, he looked at the emperor's face carefully.

"If that's the case?" Shi Chonggui looked at Tang Xu, Tang Xu was shocked, did the emperor want to ask him about the crime of negligence?

"The list of leaving the palace was handed over to you by Wang Fang?" Shi Chonggui asked him. Tang Xu shook his head and said that he would show it to himself after the old imperial doctor drafted it. That's right, and the rosters are all on the list.

"The ministers deserve death, and the ministers think that the list listed by Wang Fang is already known to the Tang Imperial Doctor in advance." A group of old imperial doctors knelt down for the emperor.

"Have you asked Imperial Doctor Tang if he knows?" Shi Chonggui asked, and the imperial doctors had to admit that they hadn't asked.

"Hmph, so it's just a prevarication. Imperial Doctor Tang worries about the queen's health all day long, how can he personally ask about everything, you are all qualified ministers and are handling this matter, don't you know how to inspect and let Wang Fang fill in her name at will? You just thought that Wang Fang was recommended by the Tang Imperial Doctor, so he was afraid and didn't dare to ask, but the Tang Imperial Doctor fell into the sin of appeasement and adultery. Shi Chonggui sneered. The old imperial doctors didn't dare to defend themselves anymore when they saw that the emperor was biased in favor of Tang Xu. However, it is impossible to say that Tang Xu and Wang Fang colluded, everyone knows that Tang Xu is honest and self-disciplined, but now Gui is the head of the Imperial Medical Pavilion, but there is not even a servant in his family.

"I think, you are not really innocent, Wang Fang knows to benefit himself from this, don't you know? Spread my will, thoroughly investigate the people who leave the palace, if they really have a serious illness, if they deceive and fool out of the palace, together with the handling personnel, they will be severely punished! After Shi Chonggui said this, he brushed his sleeves away, leaving a room of frightened imperial doctors, including Tang Xu.

Tang Xu returned home in a trance but didn't dare to look at Xiaocui, for fear that someone like Zhang Zhi would follow him, and he wanted to find out the news but didn't know who to find.

Although it has passed the third watch, there are still some cars and pedestrians on the street, and some are panicked as if they want to go out, just afraid of which one gets the news first and wants to run, but the feet of the Son of Heaven are heavily guarded, and it is now midnight, and it is very difficult to get out of the city. Tang Xu was even more anxious, but when he arrived in front of Xiaocui's house, he saw two white and dazzling white paper lanterns with the words Dian written on them.
