Chapter Eighty-Three: Conspiracy
The news brought by Cao Alcohol was like a thunderclap that exploded on the ground, and everyone was stunned for a long time.
"How did you die?" Tian Jinbao deliberately lowered his voice, but it was still shrill and piercing: "Where are people now?" ”
"Suicide by poisoning." Cao Yu wrote lightly: "It's in his temporary residence." ”
Everyone in the inner hall looked at each other, Ma Wenrui is dead, and at this point, this case can only stop here and be tried again... I'm afraid it will lead to something wrong.
Zou Mingyuan whispered: "How to write the closing case?" ”
He was really panicked in his heart, Ma Wenrui's relationship with the eldest prince was extraordinary, and when the case was closed, the eldest prince could never be involved, but the witness was found by the person recommended by the prince.
If it is not written according to the truth, the prince will not be able to hold back.
Mr. Donglin stroked his gray beard, and he said: "The old man thinks that this matter was done by Ma Wenrui alone, and since he has already adjudicated himself, the case will end with the criminal in the law." ”
"No." Tian Jinbao said with a sharp voice: "Ma Wenrui's death is strange, if you ask, how should you explain it?" ”
"Besides, will Lu Cheng give up?" Tian Jinbao sneered: "The person recommended by the prince to cooperate in handling the case is Lu Cheng's nephew, and the witness was also found by her, such a big loophole, do you have to wait for someone to find out the handle?" ”
At this time, Cao Alcohol opened his mouth, and he said: "When did my Cao Alcohol's righteous son have something to do with Lu Cheng?" ”
"Although it was recommended by the prince, it was also a guarantee made by me Cao Yu." Cao Yu looked around and said: "I'll put down here today, my people won't say half a word, think about it again." ”
Mr. Donglin's brows were furrowed, he originally wanted to use this case to sell favors to Lu Cheng and win him over to stand on the side of the Donglin Party, but he never expected that this case would be involved in heaven.
The princelings and the princelings have never dealt with each other, and this case is inevitably brought up by the princelings.
When the time comes, the two sides will compete, and the people next to them will not suffer from the fish in the pond.
The atmosphere in the inner hall gradually solidified, and everyone with their own thoughts was undecided.
"It's up to us." Cao Yu suddenly spoke, and he said slowly: "This case will be transferred to the Zongren Mansion, Ma Wenrui can be regarded as a relative of the emperor." ”
Hearing this, Zou Mingyuan's eyes immediately lit up, why didn't he expect to throw the pot like this! Throw it to the Zongren Mansion, and don't care what kind of prince or prince he is, and it won't be their turn to offend people when the time comes.
"Okay." Tian Jinbao clapped his hands and said, "This method is wonderful. ”
Even Mr. Donglin, who has always looked down on eunuchs, couldn't help but praise: "Very good." ”
So that they can pull a foot out of the mire.
"I'll ask Lord Zou to bother with the excerpt." Cao Yu got up and said, "It's best to explain the case clearly." ”
"It's a little thing, not enough to worry about." Zou Mingyuan opened his eyebrows and smiled: "Please rest assured." ”
Cao Alcohol and the others turned out of the back hall with a satisfied smile on their faces.
"Continue the trial." Zou Mingyuan spoke, he didn't panic now, as long as the facts were clear, and then handed over to the Zongren Mansion at that time, their Dali Temple would be able to pick it up.
During the period of suspension of the trial, Cui's mother's inner fear was infinitely magnified, and when the retrial was held, she told the story of the rest like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
It turned out that after Ma Wenrui impulsively killed Cui Baisheng that day, he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he ordered someone to throw Cui Baisheng's body from the upper floor, firstly to fall downstairs in disguise, and secondly, to take the opportunity to escape.
"So you ran away." Shi Kuangye made up for the rest of the matter: "Ma Wenrui came to the door again and asked you to pretend to identify the corpse. ”
"Yes." Cui's mother sobbed: "It's all lard that blinds the heart, I knew that at the beginning... I shouldn't have promised him that he would have harmed my two children..."
In the hall, Zou Mingyuan asked the bookstore, "Have you written it down?" ”
"Go back to your lordship, write it down." The clerk said respectfully.
"Let people draw a charge."
"Lord Zou." Shi Kuangye stepped forward and said: "The case is only halfway through the trial, and the suspect has not yet passed the court, is it too early to draw a detention?" ”
Zou Mingyuan beckoned Shi Kuangye to come closer, and he whispered in a low voice: "This case involves the Heavenly Family, and we can't afford to deal with it." ”
"That..."Shi Kuangye opened his mouth to speak.
Before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Zou Mingyuan raising his hand: "Don't worry about it, I will fold this case, and let Banzai transfer the case to the Zongren Mansion." ”
…
Lu Xun's case was in a uproar at first, but he didn't expect it to end in such a hasty end.
"Let's go, too." Cao Yu stood up from the circle chair, he glanced at Jiang Banxia and said, "You also go together." ”
Jiang Banxia's surprised expression flashed.
"Ancestor, I want to see you." Cao Yu said lightly, he took two steps and stopped, "Don't keep up yet." ”
She collected her emotions and followed behind Cao Yu respectfully.
There is a saying that those who know the times are Junjie, and now she still has to rely on Cao Alcohol, so it is better to ask less.
"Little cousin?" Xie Fei whispered, "Where are you going?" He gestured with his hand to Cao Alcohol.
Jiang Banxia shook his head faintly and motioned to Xie Fei not to ask again.
Cao Yu didn't say a word all the way, and it wasn't until he arrived at the East Factory that he asked the little eunuchs to bring the service of the inner eunuch to Jiang Banxia for exchange.
The little eunuchs intimately brought towels, kettles, grates and other things, and thoughtfully helped Jiang Banxia to freshen up.
Jiang Banxia, who was served so diligently, was a little unaccustomed to it, so she asked for a grate dipped in osmanthus head oil to comb the broken hair on both sides.
"Do you know why the old ancestor wants to see you today?" Cao asked as he leaned back in his chair.
Jiang Banxia put down the grate, and she replied: "Banxia doesn't know. ”
"I don't know? The matter of your killing of Sun Yaozong was stabbed in front of the old ancestor. Cao Yu sneered: "Now not only the ancestors know, but even Sun Qiumin, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, also knows." ”
"You've done a good job." Cao Ol got up and put on his hat, he said: "Whether it is dead or alive, it depends on the meaning of the ancestors in a while." ”
Jiang Banxia's hand holding the grate shook slightly, but she soon regained her composure, such a matter is really as serious as Cao Yu said, those people will keep her until now?
Apparently impossible.
Cao Alcohol just wanted to scare Jiang Banxia, and after a while, the celebrant opened his mouth and said some shocking remarks, which made his godfather unhappy.
The Forbidden City looks like a fairy palace in the sunlight, and at night, it is a devouring city.
The eunuchs who lit the lamps lit the palace lamps on both sides of the corridor one by one, and the orange warm light came out of the lamps, covering the Forbidden City with a layer of soft light in a hazy way.
Cao Ol sat on the lift, he unconsciously looked at the slowly rising full moon, only to realize that the day had reached fifteen, and the eunuchs and palace maids who lit the lamp saw Cao Ol passing by, and knelt down next to the wall.
He glanced at the eunuchs and palace maids kneeling everywhere near and far, and said to Jiang Banxia, who was holding the sedan pole on the side: "See, this is the palace, and the people who should be in the dust are still stepped into the dust." ”
"100,000 eunuchs and maids in the palace." Cao Yu chuckled: "If you want to get ahead, it's difficult. ”
Jiang Banxia looked at Cao Alcohol, who was undoubtedly young, and she asked, "What about Godfather?" ”
"Our family, it's harder."
