Chapter 371 Case within Case (2)
The most important project of the emperor's tomb is the underground palace, although it is all underground, but in terms of the scale of the building, it is far larger than the main hall and the hall on the surface, and it is much more complicated, although the last mechanism and other facilities have not yet been constructed, but there are many corridors, and there are many halls, even if Hongqing brings not a small number of people and horses, it is not a simple matter to complete the thorough investigation in a short time, no, it has been three days, and the inspection work is only halfway through, and no suspicious things have been found.
No news is the best news, Hongqing didn't want the emperor to really have an accident, he was happy to be a big shopkeeper, every day in addition to asking about the results of the thorough investigation, he didn't interfere in anything else, let a group of people wait to toss enough, he himself, but he was not idle, leading Li Minxing and others around, seemingly seriously inspecting everywhere, but the scenery seems to be higher than the composition of the investigation, no side, since he came to this dynasty, Hongqing rarely has time to spare, not busy with homework, It's just that I'm entangled in government affairs, and it's hard to get such a picturesque place, and I'm really sorry for myself if I don't take a leisurely time.
"Report, Yu Qing Baylor, the underground palace found something suspicious, Lu Ti didn't dare to be arbitrary, and sent a small one to ask Qing Baylor to make his actions clear."
The days of leisure are always very short, no, Hongqing happened to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the emperor's tomb for a long time, but saw a criminal soldier running in a hurry, a standard thousand, kneeling in front of Hongqing, panting and reporting a sentence.
Uh-huh, it's finally here!
Although Hongqing people have been idle these days, but in fact, the heartstrings have never been relaxed, not for anything else, just because Hongqing knows very well that the case of the imperial tomb is not so simple, and whether Chunhui and others can cover up the truth is not too optimistic, because of the complexity of the personnel in the imperial tomb, God knows who the person who told the prince is, there is such an internal should, it is really too difficult to hide from the sky and the sea, because of this, Hongqing is not very surprised to hear that soldier so report.
"Got it, inform Lord Qi and Chunhui and the others, all of them will gather at the scene, and Ben Baylor will go later."
Since the criminal department found a suspicious point, Hongqing couldn't sit idly by, so he quietly ordered and sent the soldier who came to report the news away, but Hongqing himself was not in a hurry to leave, but silently pondered in place for a while, and then led Li Minxing and the others to slowly walk in the direction of the underground palace......
"Qing Baylor is here, I'll ask Qing Baylor to call the shots!"
"Qing Belle, Xia Guan and others found suspicious points, and Lord Chun blatantly stopped the inspection, this is a big rebellion, I am willing to ask Qing Belle to make a clear decision!"
……
When Hongqing came to the entrance of the underground palace, there had been surrounded by the officers and soldiers of the garrison battalion who had heard the news, and there were thousands of curious people gathered in groups on the periphery, chattering endlessly, and the scene was in chaos, but Hongqing did not pay attention to it, and led Li Minxing and others straight into the underground palace, accompanied by a criminal department Langzhong, along the seven bends and eight turns, came to the scene of the incident, and the talent just turned out from the corner, and Chunhui and Qi Shiwu in the confrontation had already grabbed it together, didn't even bother to do the salute, so they all sued the other party.
"What's going on? Say it one by one! ”
Seeing that Qi and Chun quarreled together, Hongqing frowned unhappily, showed the identity of the envoy of the Qincha, waved his hand, and scolded him indiscriminately.
"Qi Qi Qing Baylor, here's the thing, when Lu Sicong, the criminal officer of my criminal department, investigated today, he found that there were suspicious points on the wall here, so he planned to dig it out to find out the truth, but unexpectedly, Lord Chun blatantly sent someone to block it, and the lower officials rushed to hear the news, and they reasoned, but they were insulted, this kind of obstruction of the investigation of the case is really empty-hearted, and the lower officials implore Qing Baylor to determine right and wrong."
Qi Shiwu believed that his position was a lot higher than Chunhui's, and he took advantage of Li'er, so he preemptively opened his mouth first, and unceremoniously sued Chunhui for a trick.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? Harun-sama, please give Ben Baylor an explanation, what the hell is going on, huh? ”
Hongqing did not comment on Qi Shiwu's complaint, but looked at Chunhui, who was flushed, with a solemn expression, and asked in a procrastinating tone.
"Back to Qing Baylor's words, this is one of the key points of the underground palace support, easy not to excavate, otherwise, the structure may be damaged, once it collapses, the fruit is unimaginable, the lower officials are ordered to supervise the construction of the emperor's mausoleum, I really dare not miss the construction period, this article, please also Qing Baylor Mingjian."
Chunhui did not deny Qi Shiwu's accusations, but he did not show weakness in putting forward the fundamental reason for not being able to dig in.
"It's ridiculous, this is a thief's heart, and he wants to cover it, if he doesn't ......"
Hearing Chunhui say this, Hongqing didn't say anything special, but Qi Shiwu was furious, and pointed at Chunhui is roar.
"Enough, it's a big noise, Ben Baylor has his own opinions!"
Hongqing was already extremely unhappy with Qi Shiwu's arrogance, but seeing that he was indiscriminately buttoning his big hat before the truth was known, the disgust in his heart couldn't help but be a little deeper, and he was not interested in listening to his nonsense, so he waved his hand and interrupted Qi Shiwu's roar without saying anything.
"Qing Baylor, Xiaguan ......"
Just as Hongqing looked at Qi Shiwu unpleasantly, Qi Shiwu also looked at Hongqing extremely unhappy, and at this time, he was on fire, Leng Buding was interrupted by Hongqing, and his heart suddenly couldn't be suppressed, and he opened his mouth to defend himself.
"Hmmm......"
Seeing that Qi Shiwu was so ignorant, Hongqing's brows suddenly frowned, and he snorted coldly, and his heart was full of a terrifying chill, which immediately made Qi Shiwu stunned, and stopped halfway through his words.
"Lu Sicong."
Hongqing ignored Qi Shiwu, who was red-eared, and looked around at everyone with a solemn expression, and finally his eyes fell on Lu Sicong, the criminal officer of the Criminal Department, and nodded his name expressionlessly.
"The lower official is here!"
Hearing Hongqing's name, Lu Sicong didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly took a few steps to get closer, and responded respectfully.
"Tell me, what's the suspicion here?"
As early as when he received the prince's edict, Hongqing had already made efforts to understand the details of the accompanying cadres of the criminal department, and he knew that although the Luti criminal official in front of him was low, he was Qi Shiwu's confidant, and he was quite suspicious of his so-called discovery of doubts, but he did not express it, but asked a gentle question.
"Back to Qing Baylor's words, Xia Guan has been conscientious since he was ordered to thoroughly investigate this area, and he did not dare to slack off in the slightest, but he did not find much in the past three days, until this morning, when he investigated here, he finally got something, Qing Baylor, please see, this wall is quite new, and the contrast with the surroundings is obvious, it is undoubtedly a new thing, looking at its shape, there must be a road leading to other places, if it is not deliberately disguised, I am afraid that it is difficult to have a side explanation, because of this, Xia Guan thinks that there must be something strange in it!"
Lu Sicong is obviously a bold person, and his eloquence is also quite good, even in the face of the famous Hongqing, there is no trace of stage fright, and he explained the matter in detail freely.
Uh-huh, there's something wrong with this guy!
When it was worth Lu Sicong's statement, although Hongqing listened expressionlessly, it seemed that he was indispensable, but in fact, his attention was already highly concentrated, and he noticed Lu Sicong's indicative eyes that glanced at Qi Shiwu quickly, and also found an interesting phenomenon, that is, Lu Sicong's eyes were always rolling unconsciously between words, it was obvious that he was not improvising, but reciting the lines prepared in advance, in other words, there was a problem behind the wall here, Lu Sicong did not find out, Rather, it was told.
"Well, do you have any explanation for Lord Chun's words about Lu Ti's punishment?"
Hongqing did not point out the doubts on Lu Sicong's body, nor did he comment on what he said, but just said noncommittally, turned his head sideways to look at Chunhui, whose face changed slightly, and asked quietly.
"Qing Baylor Mingjian, what Lu Ti said is all nonsense, this is the key point of the underground palace structure, in order to ensure safety, it must be strengthened every year, because of this, it looks a little different from the surroundings, do not hide from Qing Baylor, this autumn has only been repaired, this time is really not suitable to move again, otherwise, it is difficult for the lower officials to ensure the integrity of the underground palace."
Chunhui is a veteran of Huan Hai in the end, although he is extremely flustered at this time, he still gives a seemingly reasonable explanation, and he can't dig here with one bite.
"Hmm......"
When it comes to the ability to look at the face and see the color, Hongqing can be called a top master, just look at Chunhui's forehead sweating wildly, you know that what he said is false, there is no doubt that the back of this wall is where the water seeps, if you really dig into it, the truth will probably be revealed to the world, of course, this is obviously not the situation that Hongqing likes to see, the problem is that it is not easy to force Qi Shiwu and others to push forward the requirements, even if Hongqing is a positive envoy, and must not make such a trick of giving people a handle, otherwise, once the trouble reaches the central government, Hongqing is afraid that it will be difficult to escape, and he can't help but hesitate for a while.
"Come on, dig up here!"
Although he didn't want the truth to be exposed, compared to being in a disadvantageous situation if he couldn't cover it up, even if Hongqing couldn't bear it, he could only be ruthless and make a final decision.
"Qing Belle, you can't do this, this is going to destroy the dungeon, you can't......"
Chunhui had pinned his last hope on Hongqing, but he didn't expect Hongqing to finally decide to dig, so he was completely panicked, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, begging bitterly.
"Qing Belle, you can't dig it, if you destroy the underground palace, what kind of face do I have to go to see Your Majesty!"
"Qing Belle, you can't do this, this is a big mistake!"
"Qing Belle, just raise your noble hand, the subordinate will kowtow to you!"
……
Chunhui howled like this, Cui Biao and other officials were all panicked, and they all knelt on the ground one by one, begging bitterly, and the scene was suddenly a big chaos.
