Chapter 564: Proving Innocence
Only then did the emperor speak curiously: "Wen Aiqing, how can you prove that you didn't write the letter?" How do you prove that this letter was given to you by Lord Lin? ”
"Back to the emperor, when Lord Lin gave me this letter, I was picking magnolia flowers outside the gate of Hanlin Academy, and my hands were stained with the juice of magnolia flowers, so this envelope also has the juice of magnolia flowers." Wen Hou pointed to a corner of the smudge on the envelope.
The emperor glanced at Gonggong Lin, and Gonggong Lin immediately went to take the envelope and present it to the emperor.
The emperor took it and took a look, and there was indeed a little stain on the envelope.
He sniffed it again, and then handed it to Dali Siqing.
Dali Siqing took it and smelled it: "It is indeed the taste of the juice of magnolia flowers." ”
Wen Hou continued: "Because I was in the government at that time, I didn't have time, so I had to rush back to the house for dinner. I originally rejected Lord Lin and didn't want to help him deliver the letter. It was he who pulled me and said that there was an urgent matter, and insisted that I help him deliver the letter, and when I shook off his hand, the magnolia juice in my hand also got on his sleeve. The juice of the magnolia flower can't be washed off on the clothes, Lord Lin is wearing an official robe, and there are only three sets for each person. Ask the emperor to see it! ”
Wen Hou knew that that guy was not a good thing, and let him send a letter for no reason, maybe he was making it bad! He deliberately left the juice on his clothes, as well as on the envelope.
Leave yourself a back hand!
The emperor glanced at Gonggong Lin: "Master Lin!" ”
"Wow!" Lin Gonggong responded quickly.
Nalan Jinnian propped his hands on the table and looked at Wen Hou quietly.
When you listen to the movement of the roof, you are worried that someone will accidentally fall off!
What is she trying to do?
What are you doing walking around?
Wen Wen jumped off the roof at this time, and she caught up with Grandpa Lin and reminded a few words.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department sank in his heart: "Lord Wen, you are a big man, why do you pick flowers?" ”
Wen Hou: "The eighth princess often comes to Weichen's mansion to play with my sister, she knows that there are two magnolia trees outside the gate of Hanlin Courtyard that bloom very well, so let Weichen pick some back for her." ”
"Why did the eighth princess let you pick flowers?"
Wen Hou: "This subordinate doesn't know, and the subordinate didn't ask." Xia Guan thought: It's just a gesture, so he agreed! Adults want to know why the eighth princess picked Yulanwei, you can ask the eighth princess! ”
Criminal Department Shangshu: "......."
Dali Siqing almost laughed, he coughed: "Lord Wen, how do you prove that this letter was not written by you?" ”
"Paper!" Wen Hou raised the letter paper in his hand and smiled confidently.
"What's wrong with paper?" The criminal department Shangshu asked inexplicably.
Wen Hou said: "The paper used by officials at each level in the Hanlin Academy is different. This paper is not something I can use at my level. ”
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department snorted coldly: "This letter may not have been written by you in the Hanlin Academy, or it was written in the mansion!" ”
Wen Hou shook his head: "It's even more impossible in the mansion!" My lord, do you know, my family runs a papermaking workshop, and the paper at home is either defective paper cut from the workshop, or it is the best quality paper. But there is no such paper, and besides, this paper is a special paper for the Hanlin Academy, and it is stamped with the steel seal of the Hanlin Academy. How strict the paper used by the Hanlin Academy is, Lord Shangshu will know by asking the scholar of Han University! 7”
The seventeenth brother had shown himself and his eldest brother the records of solving all the major and difficult cases in Nalan Country fifty years ago.
Regarding solving the case, he didn't dare to say that he was a master, but he still accumulated a little experience!
Dali Siqing looked gentle, with light in his eyes, what a seedling!
Cultivate well, and over time, you will be able to take charge of your own affairs!
Shangshu of the Criminal Department shook his head: "This can't prove that the letter was not written by you, the words are your handwriting, and you can deliberately take the boss's paper." ”
"Then you have to be able to get the boss's paper, my lord, the Hanlin Academy is different from other departments, it is not possible to move around anywhere, and there is a clear distinction at all levels! Everyone has their own room to deal with, and everyone locks the door as soon as they leave the house. ”
Shangshu of the Criminal Department snorted coldly: "Even so, it's not impossible if you want to steal the paper!" ”
At this time, Scholar Han opened up and said, "Master Shangshu doesn't know, since last year, everyone's paper in the Hanlin Academy has a private seal!" The people of the Hanlin Academy don't know about this yet. ”
When the emperor heard this, he remembered that this was indeed the case.
Soon Lin Jingxuan was brought in.
He gave a salute to the people in the hall, and he had already thought of a way to deal with it.
He had known that there would be such a moment.
Gonggong Lin presented several sets of clothes in his hand to the emperor.
Wen Hou said at this time: "Your Majesty, Weichen remembers that I was pulling Lord Lin's right hand at that time. ”
Father-in-law Lin flipped out one sleeve,
"Your Majesty, please take a look!"
The emperor glanced down: there was indeed a little brown stain on the royal blue sleeves, like the juice of some kind of plant, which could not be cleaned.
Gonggong Lin presented it to Dali Siqing and others.
Dali Siqing patted the wood: "Bold Lin Xiu, you dare to leak the emperor's whereabouts, what should you be guilty of?" ”
Lin Jingxuan knelt down: "The emperor's ministers are wronged!" Wechen has never done this! ”
Shangshu of the Criminal Department threw the letter in front of Lin Jingxuan: "Still want to quibble? Did you give this envelope to Adjutant General Liangshan, who asked Lord Wen to send him to the Praetorian Guard Battalion? There is magnolia sap on this letter, and when you asked Wen Hou to help you deliver the letter, he happened to be picking magnolia flowers, and your sleeves were stained with magnolia sap, and there was also it on the envelope! How do you explain this? You still haven't recruited from the truth? ”
Lin Tingxuan picked up the envelope and glanced at it: "Xiaguan did ask Lord Wen to help me deliver a letter, but I didn't write that letter!" Lord Liang is the cousin of the lower official insider, and the letter is a letter from the insider to Lord Liang, she said that it is a letter from the media, I haven't read the content of the letter, I just help the insider forward it! At that time, I had abdominal pain and was in a hurry, so I asked Master Wen to help me deliver a letter. ”
Wen Hou didn't expect Lin Jingxuan to admit it so readily!
He glanced at Lin Jingxuan: "Dare to do and admit it, it's still a person!"
Lin Jingxuan smiled: "A dignified manly husband, I have always dared to dare to admit it!" I believe that I have given it to you, but I do not know the content of the letter! Have you ever changed it, I don't know! ”
In any case, it will not fall on his head!
Dali Siqing didn't expect another person to be involved, so he said: "Spread the Tan family!" ”
Soon Tan Shiwan was brought in.
At this time, Ning Huaiyu walked in, holding a stack of crumpled papers in his hand: "Your Majesty, this is found in the house of the second young lady of Changping Bofu!" Mrs. Changpingbo's maid was burning the papers there. ”
The emperor took it, took a look, and his pupils shrank!
