Chapter 20: One Hit (2)
?
What's more coincidental is that this is a pair of golden hairpins, I only wore one on my head at that time, and one was collected by the 'spring' equinox, and Qimin saw the 'spring' equinox in advance, and asked her to take out this golden hairpin, which was to compare it with the "murder weapon" on the corpse.
Jiang Shouquan lifted the cloth covering the corpse under the emperor's signal, carefully pulled out a golden hairpin from the throat of the corpse, the two contrasted, the same inlaid jewelry 'jade' 'flower' butterfly golden hairpin, the hairpin body is flat and conical, the upper part of the hairpin body is engraved with ancient money-shaped 'flower' pattern, the middle of the front is shallow carved with a flow of cloud patterns, the hairpin top is decorated with a white 'jade' butterfly, under the butterfly is a red 'jade' 'flower', the lower part of the red 'jade' 'flower' is a green 'jade' cicada, and the center is inlaid with a gemstone.
The emperor saw the comparison of the two golden hairpins, and 'handed over' to the three law divisions, after reading it, his father said to the emperor: "In this way, this person is the murderer who intends to 'want' to murder Concubine Niangniang, but this person also fell into the water with Niangniang, and his body was already swollen and difficult to distinguish, and he couldn't tell who it was!"
"My lord, although I can't see his face clearly, I have evidence that he is Zheng Guifei's person. "I said aloud, intending to make every word heard by everyone present.
My father turned to me, "What proof does my mother have?"
I took out a purse from my side, the texture of the purse is not excellent, embroidered with the pattern of Yangzhou's famous 'flower' Qiong' 'flower', not from the palace, I said: "This, I was torn off from the murderer in a panic, my lord, please look at the broken belt above, presumably the same belt as his waist, and the things in it ......" I poured out a piece of ancient 'jade' from the purse.
Zheng Guifei was immediately shocked, I smiled coldly at her, and said: "Guifei Niangniang can know this 'jade', if Niangniang doesn't remember, the concubine will remind Niangniang, on the day the concubine fell into the water, Niangniang went to the street with the six princes to play, passed through the gem Zhai, and bought some things in it!"
"Enough. Zheng Guifei shouted, the anger between her eyebrows looming, "You are simply a bunch of nonsense!"
"Is the concubine in a hurry so soon, do you want to deny that you didn't buy this 'jade', or do you want to say that you didn't give away this 'jade', so this 'jade' ran to him with his own feet. "I don't want Concubine Zheng to quibble, my series of questions made her speechless, the more she wanted to quibble, the more weak her heart became, "Your Majesty, the three adults, the boss of Baobao Zhai is waiting on the shore, please summon!"
The boss of the gem shop stepped forward tremblingly, and before he arrived, he was so frightened that his legs trembled and knelt down, and his father asked him to identify the ancient 'jade', and he bluntly said that this was what he had in the store, and took out the account book, which recorded the value of this ancient 'jade', who was the person who bought it, and so on.
"Raise your head and see if there are any people here who bought 'jade' that day!"
The boss raised his head in fear, looked around, pointed to Concubine Zheng, and said, "That day, it was this lady...... No, it was bought by this lady in a small shop, by the way, there is also a little young master, called her mother, and it was the little young master who liked this 'jade' at that time, so he bought it!"
The father said, "You can go down!"
Everyone looked at Zheng Guifei, Zheng Guifei's face was pale, her lips were moving, and her eyes looked at Qi Heng in a daze, Qi Heng's face was still 'pale', and she couldn't see her joy or anger.
I said, "Your Majesty ......"
"Your Majesty. Someone stepped forward loudly, it was Zheng Guifei's father, Zhongshu Ling, "Your Majesty, even if this 'jade' was bought by the concubine from the gem shop, it cannot be proved that this 'jade' was given to this madman by the concubine Niangniang, maybe it was stolen by this madman!"
Zheng Guifei's eyes rolled, and she quickly thought about it, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty, the concubine remembered that the concubine was on the way back, because there were too many people on the street, so she was targeted by thieves, and this piece of 'jade' had been stolen at that time, it turned out that this madman was the thief!"
Do you want to use a thief to get rid of this?
I looked at Qi Min hidden in the crowd without a trace, and he bowed slightly to me.
The three of the three law divisions were discussing, Qi Heng didn't say a word, and Concubine Zheng was no longer nervous.
At this time, the sixth prince walked to the emperor's side and asked, "Father, didn't you say to go back to Beijing, why don't you leave!"
No one answered him, he had always been loved by his mother, and he was not afraid of his father, and he did not know why the atmosphere was so tense at this time.
Concubine Zheng said to him: "Lian'er, don't disturb your father, go down and rest!"
The sixth prince flattened his mouth in displeasure, and when he saw the purse and the ancient 'jade' on the table in a blink of an eye, he immediately smiled and said, "Why is this here." So saying, he stepped forward and took it and played.
Concubine Zheng was about to stop it, but I smiled, stepped over and asked, "Has Your Highness seen this!"
"Of course. "It's probably because his mother and brother love him too much, and he is a teenager, but he is still like a child, and he doesn't have the precociousness and scheming that a child in the palace should have, "This is still what I fancy and let my mother buy it!"
I smiled and said, "I have long heard that His Highness likes antiques, and it turns out that he also knows the ancient 'jade'!"
"That is, this 'jade' is no worse than the quality in the palace, and you also know 'jade'!"
"The concubine doesn't understand, but the concubine is 'very' interested in this purse, is this purse His Highness!"
"Lian'er. Zheng Guifei's face was pale, and her voice also raised.
The sixth prince was startled and looked at Concubine Zheng in surprise.
Qi Heng, who had never spoken, suddenly said: "Lian'er, is this purse yours!"
"Yes...... It's the son's. The sixth prince looked at his father and then at his mother, and replied a little strangely, "Erchen bought it at the bazaar, and he casually filled this 'jade', thinking that he would come back and change it to a better box, but it was ......."
"But what!"
"However, after Erchen came back, the mother sent someone in to reply, and Erchen forgot in the mother's room for a while, and when Erchen went back to get it, it was gone!"
The smile on my lips gradually spread, and I asked him more and more gently: "Your Highness said that you came back with this piece of 'jade' at that time, right!"
"yes!"
"No thieves encountered!"
The sixth prince smiled: "How can there be a thief, the 'guards' have three layers inside and out, which thief is destined to steal our things!"
"Oh!! I gave a long answer and looked at Concubine Zheng and Zhongshuling.
Zheng Guifei looked at the six princes in disappointment, and shook her head silently, the six princes also seemed to sense that something was wrong, and walked over to hold her hand uneasily: "Mother, what's wrong with you, why is your face so ugly, is there something uncomfortable." He turned back to Qi Heng and said, "Father, the mother concubine is not feeling well, please ask a doctor to take a look!"
Qi Heng got up and nodded: "It's time to ask a doctor to take a good look, come here, take the concubine down." He walked up to me, his eyes were like a sword, as if he wanted to see me through a hole, and said word by word: "You, very good!"
It's good to make him lose face in front of the world, and it's good that he has to face how to deal with Concubine Zheng, it's a good ...... disgusted him.
