Li Jinzhong obviously didn't expect that there was another murderer hidden in the East Palace, so he was so shocked that he almost knocked over the tea bowl in his hand, sat up straight, and asked, "General, who was caught this time?" ”

Zhang Liang glanced at Lin Shu and did not answer Li Jinzhong's question.

Li Jinzhong understood that he did not want the case to be leaked, so he pointed to Lin Shu and introduced to Zhang Liang: "This is Lord Lin Shulin, the prince's left concubine, who came to inquire about the occupation of the Chongwen Pavilion under his jurisdiction. ”

Lin Shu stood up, bowed to Zhang Liang and said, "The lower official has seen the general. Chongwen Hall is the place where the emperors Sun Xun Qi went to study, the secret collection of thousands of scriptures of the past dynasties, and the Hongwen Hall belongs to the same important place of the imperial court to advocate civilization, please order the general to immediately vacate the Chongwen Pavilion building, in order to maintain the dignity of the imperial court. ”

Zhang Liang wanted to send him away as soon as possible, so that he could boast to Li Jinzhong about his gains, but when he heard that it was just a trivial matter that his subordinates occupied a few rooms, he said disapprovingly: "The soldiers don't understand the rules and occupy the wrong place, so I told them to move out." He turned back to the sergeant and said, "I want to discuss important matters with Master Li, you guys stay at the door, don't let people in and disturb you." With that, he walked straight to Lin Shu's seat and sat down, just waiting for Lin Shu to leave.

Lin Shu then said: "The medicine bureau Lang, Cheng and all the doctors in charge are responsible for the treatment of the crown prince and the people of the East Palace, and they must not be short of value for a day, and I also ask the general to order it to be returned." ”

Zhang Liang rolled his eyes, waved his hand a little impatiently, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll release a few of them tonight." Adults can now go to the pharmacy and wait to pick them up. ”

Lin Shu still stood still, and continued: "The official is in charge of the affairs of the East Palace, and the general is requested to order that the sergeants are prohibited from holding weapons and making noise in the palace, and that no one is allowed to enter and exit the palace without reason, so as to ensure the peace of the palace." ”

Zhang Liang "snapped" a few cases, and said sharply: "Where did you come from, what kind of bird official, standing here and making noise!" General Ben now orders you to get out right away! ”

Li Jinzhong sat on the top, and took the opportunity of raising his hand to raise a bowl of tea to peek at Lin Shu's reaction, only to see Lin Shu standing steadily, without the slightest timidity and panic, but with a smile on his face, he bowed his hand to Zhang Liang unhurriedly, and said: "The general agrees to this, and the lower official will leave immediately." ”

Zhang Liang's army has always been strict and orderly, and when he usually gets angry, a group of battle-hardened and wolf-like fierce generals in the forbidden army are so frightened that they don't dare to take a breath. As soon as his mind moved, he was already murderous, and only asked lightly on his face: "What if General Ben doesn't agree?" ”

Lin Shu also replied indifferently: "The lower officials will impeach the general for failing to restrain his subordinates, and ask the emperor to cure you for dereliction of duty." ”

Zhang Liang smiled and shouted at the sergeant at the door: "Tie him up for me, take him under the corridor for the time being, and wait for him to be released." ”

The four sergeants agreed to "obey the order" and rushed straight to Lin Shu, about to arrest people.

Li Jinzhong saw that the heat was almost over, so he gently put down the tea bowl, stopped the sergeant with a word, and persuaded Zhang Liang with a smile: "The general is angry, if you think this person is wordy, just order someone to drive him out." Why bother to hurt his body? ”

Zhang Liang saw that Li Jinzhong had opened his mouth, so he reluctantly waved his hand at the sergeants: "Drag it out." ”

Lin Shu didn't wait for the sergeant to make a move, raised his leg and walked out, and said angrily to Zhang Liang as he walked: "I can't help you, Lin is willing to take off this official robe and go back to the countryside to farm." ”

Li Jinzhong saw that Zhang Liang's face was not good, and he was afraid that Lin Shu would immediately suffer an accident when he left the courtyard, so he dissuaded Lin Shu and said: "Lord Lin, please stay in the ear room for a while, and we will go to meet the prince together later." At the same time, he instructed the duty of the prince's inner fang to take the forest tree away and place it in the ear room.

Zhang Liang was ruined by the forest tree, and he didn't say a word with a black face. Li Jinzhong pretended to be impatient and asked: "The general is brave, as soon as he gets out of the horse, the traitor will be captured." Tell me, who are you caught? ”

Zhang Liang looked at Li Jinzhong's anxious look on his face, and couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, temporarily put aside Fang Cai's unhappiness, and said with a little excitement: "This guy is a doctor in charge of the Pharmaceutical Collection Bureau, named He Shaosheng. The arsenic that Wang sent to the palace was obtained from him. ”

Li Jinzhong asked again: "How did you capture him?" ”

Zhang Liang pursed his lips disdainfully: "Speaking of which, this guy is really a bear bag." Since Wang sent arsenic to poison Zhao Muyi, it is natural to find out where the arsenic she used came from, so as soon as I entered the palace today, I ordered someone to detain all the officials and officials of the Drug Collection Bureau and interrogate them one by one. This guy first pretended to be sick in the detention room, and had to go back to the duty room to get medicine, but after being refused, he took the opportunity to use the toilet to try to take poison and commit suicide, but was stopped by the sergeant on guard. I got the report and went to interrogate him myself, but he was recruited without asking a few questions. According to He Shaosheng's confession, Wang Cairen sent someone to call him a few years ago, saying that traces of rat eating had been repeatedly found in the palace where she lived, and asked him if he had any medicinal materials that could poison rats and use some of them. He didn't think about it at the time, so he took some medicinal arsenic and gave it to Wang Cairen's poisonous rats. After being detained today, he heard from the sergeants that there was a poisoning plot in the palace, and in fear, he wanted to cut himself off to save his family. I also ordered someone to search the duty room, and found a large bag of arsenic in the medicine box he usually used, which was found to be the same as what Zhao Muyi threw in the imperial banquet. In this way, I will report to the adults what to do with this person, and ask them to decide. ”

After listening to Zhang Liang's narration, Li Jinzhong thought for a moment and said: "According to what the general said, this He Shaosheng was only deceived by the Wang family and provided her with poison, and it seems that he is not an accomplice of rebellion."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Liang hurriedly interrupted him: "My lord, no matter whether He Shaosheng did it on purpose or not, after all, he provided poison to Wang Cairen. If it weren't for him, Wang was within the palace walls, where to find these many poisonous things, the last general thought that it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the real murderer. ”

Li Jinzhong saw that Zhang Liang was eager to invite merit, and thought that no matter what the situation was, as long as it was confirmed that the poison came from the hand of the surname He, he would inevitably die, and he would not be guilty of arguing with Zhang Liang. It's just that the queen wants to close the case just by arresting a doctor, I'm afraid I can't explain it. So, he cleared his throat and asked Zhang Liang thoughtfully: "The general has a point. This prison just wants to remind one sentence: He Shaosheng's confession alone is not enough, I wonder if the general has interrogated the servants around Wang's side, etc., whether what they said is the same as He Shaosheng? ”

Zhang Liang was afraid that the credit in his hand would fly away. He became a general mostly because he was the queen's brother, although he was also born in the army and was skilled in archery and horses, but he has always been detained by the queen's side, and his military exploits are really embarrassing, and so far the title is only the lowest county man. Cracking the reverse case is regarded as a military merit, and he is full of hope that this business trip can bring him the title of a marquis, so when he heard Li Jinzhong's repeated doubts, Zhang Liang felt a little disgusted with the old man in front of him who did not have a beard but had a fierce face. He shook his head and said to Li Jinzhong disapprenously: "My lord is too worried, just imagine who will send his head under the guillotine." If He Shaosheng's confession is not true, the last general may ask, where did the poison sent by the Wang family to Zhao Muyi come from? Besides, it is too common for the palace concubine to summon the chief doctor, and there has been a gap of ten months in between, even if the servant women can't remember that there has been such a thing, it is normal, can it be judged that He Shaosheng's confession is not true? ”

Li Jinzhong was inconvenient to say anything more, so he got up and arched his hand and said: "This prison really has no other intentions, and I also hope that the general will succeed and wipe out the stubbornness of the rebellion, so as to live up to the trust of the emperor and the mother." Since the general has thought about it thoroughly, the prince is now in the East Palace, you and I will go to see the prince together and explain this matter to him, how about it? ”

Zhang Liang wanted to find Li Jinzhong to jointly sign a chapter and report the matter directly to the emperor, but when he heard Li Jinzhong say that he would report to the prince first, although he was unhappy, he had to nod and agree.

Li Jinzhong still didn't see Luo San'er come back to play the report, thought about it for a while, and called someone to the duty room to call the forest tree, and several people went straight to Ning Xiangxuan together.
