Chapter 678: Where is the Truth
The confession submitted by the palace before, Yuwen Hao, for the sake of prudence, asked Gu Si to ask the palace people who were in the imperial garden at the time to ask again. See if there's anything new.
Gu Si was also not worried about Fu Su's people, so he personally took the forbidden army to ask about it. went to the palace of the concubine again and asked Ah Cai and Concubine Ru.
Concubine Ru's rhetoric is watertight. Although it doesn't seem to be in line with her way of doing things, she can't find any mistakes, in order to relieve the prince. invited Princess An, who was watching Concubine Hu fall down in the Suxin Palace, to go out. Then Princess An had abdominal pain and couldn't walk the aisle, so she was placed in the nearby First Quarter Moon Pavilion, and she was afraid that the wind would be strong and the curtain would fall, and there was no problem.
As for Ah Cai's previous confession, it is lackluster. Even the only focus was that she ran to the Upper Quarter Moon Pavilion. But at that time, someone had already discovered that Princess An had been attacked, and the curtain had been lifted. That is to say, she was not around when Princess An was taken away by Concubine Ru until she was attacked, let alone the first to find out.
She was originally Princess An's personal maid. But in this matter. She could not provide any useful information at all, except that she said that the dress that Princess Ann was wearing at that time was not red.
Other words. Zhenbei Hou saw the red skirt. Not necessarily a skirt, but bloodstains.
But this is just the words of Zhenbei Hou, maybe when it is handed over to the Criminal Department or Dali Temple, it is not enough to accept it, and even say that he deliberately guided the direction of the chief judge's investigation, so that the chief judge thought that when he was close to the Shangxian Moon Pavilion, Princess An had been injured, so as to clear his suspicions.
After asking the two of them, King An came out with his hands, Gu Si was startled when he saw King An, it was just a short day, but King An was a lot haggard, his eyes were red and his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his eyes were like sharp blades, which made people look at it at first glance, very cold and crazy.
"Gu Si!" King An's eyes raised and stared at Gu Si, "You go and tell Yuwen Hao, don't want to excuse the old man, this king also asked, at that time, most of the people in the imperial garden were the brothers and sisters of the family, or the slaves and eunuchs in the palace, and the people present at the time, except for him Zhenbei Hou, no one knew martial arts, just this point, no matter how he washed, he couldn't get rid of the charge, this king would stare at him, if he didn't die, this king would not hesitate to commit a felony of murder, and he would not forgive him." ”
Gu Si found that he was a little considerate of King An, perhaps because he also became a parent, he had a beloved wife, and King An's favorite wife was well known, and now Princess An's life and death were uncertain, and his only obsession was to kill the murderer, so Gu Si didn't say much, only said: "Don't worry, the prince is very important, and the murderer must not go unpunished." ”
King An said sharply: "The murderer is the old man of Zhenbei Hou. ”
Gu Si didn't want to argue, but when he heard this, he felt a little harsh, and said: "The mood of the prince, Weichen understands it very well, but now how the truth has not been ascertained, the prince is so arbitrary, it is better to say that the Hou of Zhenbei is the murderer, if not, wouldn't it make the murderer go unpunished?" ”
Ah Ru interjected a sentence next to him, with a slightly sad and indignant tone, "Lord Gu's words are suspected of being biased, just now the prince said, in the imperial garden, only he Zhenbei Hou knows martial arts, and the princess was injured by the palm force, which shows that the murderer does not think about the second person except him, I know that the relationship between the prince and the Marquis of Zhenbei is good now, but I can't show favoritism because of this, Lord Gu, the princess is still lying in it and doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, and she can't even keep the child in her womb. ”
Ah Cai also cried, "Yes, you must bring the murderer to justice, it's so hateful, the princess has no power to restrain the chicken, and her heart is even more gentle and kind, how fierce can you do such a vicious deed?" If the murderer is not brought to justice, wouldn't the prince in the princess's mansion be sacrificed in vain? ”
Gu Si saw that after King An heard Ah Ru and Ah Cai's words, his eyes suddenly burst into rage, forced him to take a step forward, his forehead was beating, he stared at Gu Si, and said coldly: "Listen, within three days, if Jingzhao Mansion still drags its feet and refuses to close the case, this king will personally go to close the murderer." ”
Gu Si was reluctant to challenge King An's bottom line, so he had to say goodbye.
He sighed, King An stubbornly thought that Zhenbei Hou was the murderer, and if the investigation could not come out after three days, he was afraid that he would really kill Zhenbei Hou.
What can't an angry person do?
Gu Si immediately went to ask the palace people who were in the Imperial Garden that day, and also asked the people who found out that something had happened in King An's Mansion.
It was the princess of the Hejun Wangfu family who found out that Princess An, so Gu Si sent someone to inform Yu Wenhao and asked Yu Wenhao to go to the Hejun Wangfu to get a confession, and he continued to stay in the palace to ask.
Yu Wenhao went to Hejun Wangfu, and the princess was scared when she came back last night, and she heard that the prince came to ask about yesterday's affairs, and the prince helped him out.
After the ceremony, the prince helped the princess to sit down, Yuwen Hao saw that the princess's face was pale, her lips were purple, her eyes were also dark, and her eyes were full of panic, which showed that she was really frightened.
The princess said: "Yesterday the concubine took the maid in the imperial garden and walked around, I was thinking of going to enjoy the plum blossoms, but I didn't know that the plum blossoms were not much, I met a few ladies on the road, and after greeting for a while, I felt tired, and wanted to find a place to rest for a while, drink hot tea to warm up, because it was relatively close to the first quarter moon pavilion, and I saw the curtain, thinking that there should be someone inside, so I just talked and made fun, and then went back when the dinner was held, but I didn't know ......"
When she said this, she slammed suddenly, and hurriedly drank a sip of hot tea to calm down before continuing, "I don't know that just up the stone steps, my maid said how to smell a smell of blood, when she said it, I immediately asked which lady was inside, asked twice and couldn't hear the answer, the maid opened the curtain and took a look, and saw a person sitting on the stone table, a pool of blood flowed underneath, I was so scared that I couldn't do it, and hurriedly called the maid to go in and see, the maid went to call twice, reached out and gently pushed, I saw that the man fell to the ground, lying in a pool of blood, I didn't see clearly that it was Princess An, I only screamed in fright, and then someone ran over and said that Princess An, and Princess An had a miscarriage, and then I was helped away, so I didn't know what was going on. ”
After listening to Yuwenhao, he called the maid out to ask, and what the maid said was not different from the princess, basically that's it.
The princess stroked her chest and said sadly: "At that time, in the panic, everyone thought that Princess An just fainted due to a miscarriage, but they didn't know that she was poisoned, it was too cruel, Princess An is such a good person, and she is pregnant, she is going to suffer such a catastrophe, it is too cruel." ”
Shizi comforted her, turned his head and asked Yu Wenhao, "Brother Prince, I heard that the murderer is Concubine Hu's father, Zhenbei Hou, isn't it?" ”
Yu Wenhao looked at him and said: "The case is still under investigation, who is the murderer is unknown, you can't make hasty conclusions, and you can't speculate with the outside world, you know?" ”
Shizi nodded, "Brother Chen knows, Brother Chen doesn't dare to say half a word outside, but today I went out for a while, and I heard everyone talking about it, saying that the Marquis of Zhenbei is the murderer." ”
Yu Wenhao felt powerless, and when he turned around, public opinion came out to make trouble.
