Chapter Fifty-Six: Trouble in the East Academy
"You talk nonsense!" Lu Zhongsi's mouth frothed, and his face turned red with excitement, "Ah Yu, you have to believe the eldest brother, the eldest brother really didn't kill anyone." He pinned almost all his hopes on Lu Yixuan, and wanted to reach out to grab her sleeve, but he couldn't move at all.
The Shenwu guard was about to drag people out.
"Wait." Lu Yixuan shouted.
"Deputy Envoy Lu, although Lu Zhongsi is your eldest brother, you won't favor him at this juncture." The young generals stared at Lu Yixuan with a pair of dry eyes, and the mockery and sneer in their eyes were watching a good show.
Look at the death of a little companion in the East Academy, and now the biggest suspect is Deputy Envoy Lu's eldest brother, she arrests it, or not.
"Although Lu Zhongsi is cowardly and useless, he will never kill." Lu Yixin groaned, and he was still a companion in the academy.
"You can't say that there is no deputy envoy Lu, he appeared at the scene of the crime, this is the Royal Academy, and he can't be the master with a word."
Of course, Lu Yixuan knows that the matter is big, and she also knows that she should not stop the so-called "impartiality" from dealing with it, but these people - these people are obviously using the public for personal gain, they have been "bullied" by their little girl for a long time and they can't get used to Lu Zhonghe, a useless person, if they let it go indiscriminately, I am afraid that their eldest brother will not be able to argue, and he will not be able to wait for the truth to come out.
The atmosphere in the East Academy was solidified, with a mixture of wails and confrontation.
"What's going on here?" The clear and clear voice fell, and after the lights, the people who came were awe-inspiring.
Shenwu Wei hurriedly bowed down and retreated: "Lord Qin." ”
Qin Zheng saw that there were still a lot of people, he had just gone to the sixth department to send the approved excerpt and was about to return to the Wenhua Hall to return to the house, when he passed by the East Academy, he heard a noise inside, you must know that this academy has always been very clean after the sun falls, so he is curious to come in and take a look.
As a result, something big is happening here.
The royal companion Lin Zhen died inexplicably, and the so-called suspect was the eldest brother of the deputy envoy Lu who led people to patrol and search, which is intriguing.
"Inform Dali Temple." Qin Zheng didn't say much, there was a murder in the inner garden of the palace, no matter how big or small it was, it was not wrong to notify Dali Temple first.
Others dare not slack off when they receive orders.
"Take down this murder suspect first." Qin Zheng pointed at Lu Zhonghe.
Lu Zhongsi suddenly cried bitterly with his legs weak: "Ah Yu, I don't, I don't, you believe the eldest brother, the eldest brother really didn't kill anyone......" Qin Zheng can be regarded as a nominal "brother-in-law" no matter how he says, one sentence can top ten sentences of others, but he doesn't give any affection.
"Lord Qin is slow," Lu Yixuan was jealous, "Even if you want to take someone, you are not in a hurry for a moment, I want to hear it, Lu Zhonghei's explanation." "At least, let Lu Yixuan figure out the ins and outs first, and then figure out how to pull his stupid big brother out of the fire pit.
Lu Zhongsi choked up, whimpering and crying, without the courage and courage of a big husband, Qin Zheng didn't stop it.
So the eldest brother of the Lu family collapsed on the ground, and when he saw Lin Zhen's lying corpse, he felt panicked, and hurriedly turned his head: "What I said is the truth, a few days ago, after the new "Yu Ning Excerpts" was sent to all palaces and halls, I came back today and I was addicted to it after looking at it twice, and I have been in the East Academy, and I only took a nap when I was tired, who knows-who knows and dragged it out." ”
"I didn't kill Lord Lin Zhen, he is the royal companion of the East Academy, he is only eight buckets high, rich and rich, I admire Lord Lin even more on weekdays, how could I mutilate him, don't believe it - you can ask Master Zeng, he, he knows it clearly."
Lu Zhongsi's tears and snot flowed down together, and he hurriedly raised his hand to wipe his sleeve.
"I—If I really killed someone, why do I have to wait in the East Academy to be arrested?!" No matter how stupid the murderer is, there is no need to sleep at the crime scene.
"Maybe that's where you get up to it, and it's just the opposite." There were people gossiping on the side.
Lu Zhongsi was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pot, his face was stained with tears, but his palms were hot sweat, his legs and feet were stiff and cold, and he couldn't wait to hold on to the placket of the little attendant's clothes.
Qin Zheng naturally listened to his words as well, and he didn't rush to assert and order, because Lu Yixuan was already squatting next to Lin Zhen's corpse, as if he was carefully observing the situation on the corpse in the moonlight.
The clothes are not neat, it seems that they have been pulled with people, maybe the night is slightly cool, under the moonlight you can vaguely see that the clothes have fine water stains, under the shadow of flowers and trees, it is inevitable to be contaminated with dew.
"Deputy Envoy Lu, do you have any doubts?" Qin Zheng raised his head, he was not half interested in the corpse.
Lu Yixuan pursed the corners of her lips, Lu Zhongsi prayed to her pitifully, but she could only wave her hand and stopped Shen Wuwei and Lord Qin twice in front of the public, but it was only three, and she couldn't go beyond the rules for her eldest brother.
"Ah, you have to save the big brother, save the big brother! I didn't kill Lord Lin Zhen! No! Lu Zhongsi's heart-rending cry almost resounded through the East Academy, but before this person could be dragged out, he called the people at the door to block it back.
The lanterns were as long as a roaming dragon, followed by no less than 20 palace eunuchs, not only the young generals of the Shenwu Guard were stunned, but even Lu Zhongsi was stunned, his knees bent, and they all knelt down.
"Little prince Chitose Chitose Chitose."
Qin Zheng and Lu Yixuan in it hurriedly greeted them, in this Shengjing City, there are many people who can call "Lord Wang", but there is only one person who wants people to kneel down and respectfully bow their eyebrows and call "Chitose".
Feng Ming Evil.
Feng Xiao Wangye.
It's really strange, everyone was there this night, Feng Mingxi's moon-white robe dragged with colorful feathers, and the moonlight flowing from the flowers became an embellishment foil, he didn't call it flat, and no Shenwuwei dared to stand up.
You can see the ins and outs at a glance or two, and if there is a murder case, it is reasonable for Qin Zheng to entrust it to Dali Temple.
Lu Zhongsi panicked, Qin Zheng pretended to be profound, Lu Yizheng did not move, and no one dared to speak out.
Feng Mingxie waved his hand lazily: "Imperial Doctor Hu, you should come up and take a look." ”
No, an old man immediately squatted next to the corpse.
"This king has nothing to do today, and it just so happens that His Majesty has invited him out of the palace for a few rounds, but I didn't expect such an unbelievable thing to happen in the East Academy." Feng Ming just dusted off his robe, and Gong E had already put down the chair, and the man took his seat.
Yes, the little prince sits, you can only stand and kneel.
Hu Liangtai is the head of the Tai Hospital, although he may not be able to distinguish the time under the moonlight, he can roughly estimate that there will be no difference: "If you go back to the little prince, based on the coldness and stiffness of Lord Lin Zhen's corpse, the death will be about five or six hours." "There was still a puddle of congealed blood on the ground.
"Five or six hours......" The little soldier on the side pinched his fingers and saw the stitches, "Lu Zhongji has been in the East Academy during today's lunch break, and the suspicion is the greatest, if he says he doesn't know, no one will believe it." ”
"Don't spew blood," Lu Zhongsi's eyes were red, "Although there are few people in the East Academy on weekdays, I'm not the only one at noon!" "Occasionally, the old master and the junior scholars come in and out during the lunch break, how did he become the most suspicious?
"Will those who read poetry and books be murderers?" The one said coldly.
Lu Zhongsi is speechless.
Lu Yixuan ignored these nonsense mockery, and arched his hand at Hu Liangtai: "Imperial Doctor Hu, you may know the cause of Lord Lin's death?" ”
Hu Liangtai squinted his eyes and gently turned Lin Zhen's corpse: "Lord Lin Zhen suffered a heavy blow to his abdomen and lost a lot of blood, which is very likely to be the cause of death." ”
Someone made a cut in Lin Zhen's abdomen.
Lu Yizhen said calmly: "Can you be sure?" ”
Hu Liangtai frowned impatiently: "What does Deputy Envoy Lu mean is that the old man can't perform an autopsy here?" The intuitive cause of death was clear at a glance, but Lu Yixuan's investigation did make Hu Liangtai a little confused, and he looked at Feng Mingxi, who had been in a good time, and there were a bunch of people here, large and small, the man with the most right to speak, but he didn't speak.
If you don't speak, you are acquiescing.
Imperial Doctor Hu couldn't do anything: "Go, bring the lamp." He said helplessly, the moonlight alone could not examine the body.
After a while, the little palace ladies took the glass lamp, and Imperial Doctor Hu cut the clothes on Lin Zhen's corpse, and everyone couldn't help but gasp, this corpse didn't feel that it was wearing clothes, and there were many bruises and bruises on the back.
Hu Liangtai was also stunned when he saw it, and hurriedly took the lamp up and down to carefully check: "It's a new injury, someone has beaten and injured this Lord Lin Zhen hard." ”
"My eldest brother doesn't know martial arts, so how can he fight to death with this companion." Lu Yixuan clenched his fists, this is really a peak and a loop.
Qin Zheng didn't change his expression when he heard this: "The fatal injury is not necessarily a heavy beating, Deputy Envoy Lu, don't draw conclusions too early, although Imperial Doctor Hu said that this is a new injury, maybe a day ago, maybe two days ago, maybe it has nothing to do with his death at all." "Maybe this Lin Zhen had a grudge with someone before, and he didn't die because of the fight.
Imperial Physician Hu let out a "hey" sound, and lowered the lamp in his hand to the large pool of blood stains on the ground: "This blood is dark red and even slightly black, I am afraid that it was done after death, and the opening on the abdomen is very likely to be charming." Although Hu Liangtai thinks of himself very lightly, he still has something to say in the face of a murder case and does not hide it, after all, the few people standing in front of him are not good stubble.
Lu Yixuan's eyes lit up: "Imperial Doctor Hu, are you sure that Lin Zhen died around five or six hours, and the serious injuries and bruises on her body are most likely to be beaten to death, and the knife in the abdomen is not a fatal injury?" ”
"If Deputy Envoy Lu questions the old man, the old man can listen to your high opinions." Hu Liangtai didn't want to entangle too much with Lu Yixing, a milky little girl was here to direct him to do this and that, this job is usually done by the subordinates of Dali Temple, and he Hu Liangtai has always taken care of the emperor's relatives.
