"Jixiang, you can't talk nonsense about this?" Listening to Cao Jixiang's advice, Wang Zhen was shocked.

"What Cao Qin said to me in person stands to reason that there shouldn't be a fake." Cao Jixiang said seriously.

"You let our family think about it!" Wang Zhen's eyes flickered, he didn't expect that a small adultery murder case would involve royal secrets, which was really weird.

"Dong Weng, you must make a decision as soon as possible, if Jiao Lanrong speaks, she will be an ignorant woman, and the consequences may ......"

"Where are the people now?"

"Detained in the detention room of the Patrol Envoy's Yamen!" Cao Jixiang said.

"Can you find an excuse to get people out first and lock them up in the Criminal Department or Dali Temple?" Wang Zhendao.

"I'm afraid not, this case falls into the hands of the patrol envoy Yamen, which is equivalent to being in the hands of Jinyiwei, if there is no strong reason, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple have no right to interfere." Cao Jixiang said.

In fact, Cao Jixiang wanted to say the word "Jiaozhao", but Meng Yan had resisted the decree before.

Moreover, Meng Yan has a waist card to enter the palace at any time, in case he breaks into the palace and directly questions the emperor, it will be troublesome.

Wang Zhen's relationship with the emperor is not as good as before.

"Let the Cabinet ......"

"It's too late, now the court is on holiday, at least until the fifteenth day of the first month to officially work, fifteen days down, it's too late!" Cao Jixiang said.

"And what can you do?"

"According to what I have seen, it is better for Dong Weng to sigh hard and enter the palace to ask to see the Queen Mother, and I came to confirm with the Queen Mother. Whether there is such a thing, secondly, as long as the Queen Mother has a decree, forgive that Meng Yan and dare not let go. Cao Jixiang said.

"This ......" Wang Zhen hesitated, this is also risky, if it is really especial, then if he knows this secret, will there be danger, and even if he asks for a will. Will Meng Yan release him? He couldn't tell.

After all, there are inextricable relationships in this, and there are some things that Cao Jixiang doesn't know, and he can't say it.

"Let's try it, you wait here here. Notify as soon as there is news! Wang Zhen finally decided to go to the palace. After all, he realized the strictness of this better than Cao Jixiang. Had to go.

Cining Palace.

"This Wang Zhen, at this time, I want to see the mourning family, and I won't pick a time!" On this day, the family will also be reunited. The Queen Mother was about to have a reunion dinner with the emperor, when she suddenly received a message from Jiang Xiong, and Wang Zhen asked to see her.

"Then the minion let him go back?" Jiang Xiong has always been jealous of Wang Zhen's power, but he also knows that it is impossible for him to replace Wang Zhen, and he does not have Wang Zhen's special relationship with the emperor.

And when he was on an errand in Cining Palace, he was a close confidant of Empress Dowager Sun, and Wang Zhen also wanted to give him three points, but now this situation has changed, and Jiang Xiong's mind has also changed!

Because of Sun Chain!

After Sun Lian's life was castrated, he became a eunuch who was not a eunuch, and the Empress Dowager Sun felt sorry for this nephew, so she took people to her side to take care of her.

Even the reunion dinner of the heavenly family made an exception to let him stay in the palace, and it was self-evident to favor Cheng Dù.

And as Sun Lian's injuries recovered, Empress Dowager Sun seemed to be intent on doing something, and Jiang Xiong felt a hint of threat!

He knew that even if he was trusted by the Empress Dowager Sun, he would not be as good as his own nephew, so if he wanted to maintain his power and status in the palace, he would have to find another way!

He doesn't want to be thrown to Nanjing to retire, and judging from this trend, it won't be long before he will really be sent to Nanjing for retirement.

The palace is more hot and cold than the outside, if you want to live better than others, you have to climb up, fortunately, Wang Zhen, who has no sins, at least has a way to go!

It was for this reason that Jiang Xiong risked angering the Empress Dowager Sun and informed him.

Fortunately, Empress Dowager Sun was in a good mood and didn't blame her, in fact, he really sweated just now.

"I said Wang Zhen, why are you so anxious to see the mourning family?" In the side hall, Empress Dowager Sun saw Wang Zhen.

"Queen Mother, can you hold back left and right?"

"Go down, all of you." Empress Dowager Sun was a little surprised, but she still stretched out her hand and waved it, allowing the left and right to exit the side hall.

"Say whatever you want."

"Queen Mother, the minister has something I want to ask you." When Wang Zhen came, he had already thought about what to say.

"Say, mourner, listen!"

"Does the Queen Mother still have an impression of a woman named Jiao Lanrong?" Wang Zhen straightened up slightly and asked.

Jiao Lanrong!

Empress Dowager Sun's face changed slightly, and her eyes became sharp: "Wang Zhen, how do you know this name?" ”

"Queen Mother, do you remember Bai Suxin's adultery murder case?"

"The mourning family naturally remembers, didn't you mention this case in front of the mourning family a few days ago?" Empress Dowager Sun said, "What, does this case have anything to do with this case?" ”

"Queen Mother, this Jiao Lanrong is Bai Suxin's stepmother!"

"Stepmother, are you saying that this Bai Suxin is Bai Xinyuan's daughter?" Empress Dowager Sun suddenly opened her phoenix eyes, stared at it and asked.

"Yes!" Regarding the surprised expression of the Empress Dowager Sun, Wang Zhen also seemed to be a little surprised, could it be that this Jiao Lanrong has any special relationship with the Empress Dowager Sun.

"What is the matter with this person?"

"Queen Mother, this woman was arrested by the inspector Yamen because she was involved in Bai Suxin's case." Wang Zhendao.

"What does Bai Suxin's murder have to do with her, the inspector has nothing to do when the yamen is full, what are you doing arresting her?" Empress Dowager Sun was a little displeased.

"According to the minister's understanding, it is this Jiao Lanrong who secretly pulled Bai Suxin's property back to his home, because this case has not officially ended, and Su Xinzhai has also been seized by Dongchang and the Criminal Department, and all the property is evidence in this case, whether it is related or unrelated." Wang Zhendao.

"So she's breaking the law?"

"Theoretically, yes." Wang Zhendao.

"What is it theoretically?" Empress Dowager Sun's voice couldn't help but rise by three points.

"After Bai Suxin's case is concluded, these belongings will naturally belong to the Bai family. Bai Xinyuan is dead, Jiao Lanrong is his wife, and it is natural for her to pull these things back. Wang Zhen secretly changed a concept.

"In that case, what else is the inspector going to do with her?" Empress Dowager Sun asked with a slight frown.

"This Weichen doesn't know, maybe the inspector has found some other clues in the yamen, right?" Wang Zhendao, in this matter, he can advance or retreat, even if there is any problem, he can also push two five or six at that time. said that he was also deceived by the people below.

"Queen Mother. This Jiao Lanrong ......"

"Wang Zhen, you are the old man in the palace, how many secrets are hidden in this palace, you don't necessarily know less than the mourning family......"

"The Queen Mother?" Wang Zhen was a little puzzled.

"The mourning family cannot interfere in the government's affairs. The patrol made the yamen arrest people. Caught the wrong one. That's naturally going to be put, right? ”

"That's what the Queen Mother said."

"Wang Zhen, the mourning family wants you to handle this matter. This Jiao Lanrong used to be a little girl next to the mourning family, a few years ago, she begged the mourning family to let her out of the palace to marry, and the mourning family took pity on her for serving the mourning family and did her best, and agreed to let her out of the palace! Empress Dowager Sun said slowly.

Wang Zhen "sighed" in his heart, and Empress Dowager Sun didn't seem to want to tell him too much about Jiao Lanrong.

But she also admitted Jiao Lanrong's relationship with her.

Since this woman used to work in the palace, she could find out her personnel file, but if he made a move, Empress Dowager Sun also had a lot of eyeliner in the palace, so she would naturally know.

Therefore, he really can't check from the palace.

And listening to the meaning of Empress Dowager Sun's words, she wants to push this matter to him, which is difficult for herself.

"Queen Mother, if this Jiao Lanrong really broke the law, what should the minister do?" Wang Zhen asked.

"The mourning family also remembered that in the "Da Ming Law", there are provisions for the arrest and detention of women who break the law, as long as it is not a major crime such as rebellion or murder, it can be handed over to the family to take care of, right?" Empress Dowager Sun asked.

"There is such a rule." Wang Zhen's eyes lit up, "It's still the Queen Mother, your old man is wise." ”

"Alright, let's do it."

"The minister will retire first!" Wang Zhen bowed his head and said.

Coming out of the detention room, Meng Yan was in a very bad mood, this Jiao Lanrong was still so arrogant when she arrived here, was she fearless, or was she bluffing?

No, this woman doesn't have that much intelligence, judging from the situation she framed that Lao Hu today, this woman doesn't have too much depth, let alone wisdom.

Then this woman must have something behind her, Cao Qin shouldn't be able to give her such guts, in the Bai family, didn't Cao Qin try his best to stop Zhang Xuan from taking her?

If she can't even see this, then she's a stupid woman?

Is Jiao Lanrong a stupid woman, her intuition told him, although this woman is not very smart, but she is not stupid.

"Son, what did this Bai Jiao Clan say to you?" Cai Jin saw that Meng Yan's face was not very good, and stepped forward to ask.

"Jiao Lanrong threatened me, saying that if I didn't let her go, I would be in big trouble." Meng Yan thought for a while, but still said it.

The so-called one person is short, and two people are long, since there is such a staff think tank, if you don't use it, it will show that you don't trust him, and second, it is also a waste.

"Son, could it be that this Jiao Lanrong still has a special background?"

"I don't know, I tried it just now, I thought she knew that we knew about her relationship with Cao Qin, and she would have some scruples, but she didn't seem to care much about it, and she didn't even deny it at all!" Meng Yan frowned.

"This is strange, a woman's most important thing is her name, and she doesn't even pay attention to this, what does this mean?"

"She's not afraid of us, or she's not afraid of his relationship with Cao Qin being discovered at all!"

"Yes, she is now a widow, a woman who has died of a man, even if she has a bad reputation, it is also a private matter of others, unless the Bai family comes forward, we can only deal with her unless we catch their adultery!" Cai Jin reminded.

"Mr. Cai, you reminded me, with Bai Jiao's current charges, can we put him in prison?" Meng Yan asked.

"According to the regulations on 'women committing crimes' in the "Da Ming Law", except for capital crimes and adultery crimes, which need to be imprisoned, all other crimes are handed over to the custody of the husband or relatives and friends, pending summons." Cai Jindao.

"Yes, I have also used this one in the lobby of Jinyi Wei Beiya, so is this Jiao Lanrong applicable now?" Meng Yan nodded.

"There's no evidence that she's involved in the murder, I'm afraid ......"

"No, although there is no evidence that she is related to the murder, at least she is a serious suspect!" A glimmer of light burst out in Meng Yan's eyes.

"Childe, are you talking about Su Xinzhai's bones?"

"Yes, all the belongings in Su Xinzhai have arrived at the Bai family, and now the bones have been found in Su Xinzhai, which shows that the Jiao sisters and brothers have been to Su Xinzhai after the case, so the Jiao sisters and brothers are all suspected of murder, so we have every reason to put Jiao Lanrong in prison!" Meng Yan Road.

"That's right, Childe's suspicion is completely valid!" Cai Jin exclaimed in amazement.

"Tianxing, order to go down, and put Bai Jiao's family in prison in the name of the murder suspect Del, no one is allowed to visit the prison, and no one is allowed to release anyone under anyone's order, even if it is the emperor's holy decree!" Meng Yan ordered.

"Son, can't even do the holy decree?"

"Yes, not by the Holy Decree!"

"Is the prince worried about the pretentiousness of the East Factory?" Cai Jin immediately understood the meaning of Meng Yan's words.

"For the sake of a Jiao Lanrong, Cao Jixiang won't go to ask Wang Zhenjiao for a copy, right?"

"If there is really someone behind Jiao Lanrong, it's not that he can't do it, we can't afford it now." Meng Yan said, "I'll make an appointment with Uncle Sai, what else is there in this Jiao Lanrong that we don't know." (To be continued......)
