Seeing the little girl's yearning expression, Qin Zheng's eyes became more and more gentle.

It's still two months before the Chinese New Year, and at that time...... Presumably, the Haiyan River has been cleared.

I hope he can come to that time safely, so that he can take his Ah Jiu for a few days.

Because he was held in Qin Zheng's arms, Gu Jiu didn't notice that Qin Zheng's expression was a little wrong, and after hearing his words, Gu Jiu nodded lightly, his eyes full of joyful smiles.

……

On the second day, the Criminal Department went to the imperial study with a testimony.

I don't know what the people from the Criminal Department have returned, in short, they are a little discouraged when they go out, but they can't see fear in their expressions.

Not long after the people from the Criminal Department left, Qin Zheng was summoned to the palace by the emperor.

At that time, he was in Dali Temple, and when he heard the words of the inner attendant, his expression did not change, and he only asked: "Father-in-law, do you know what the emperor is calling this official to do in the past?" ”

The inner eunuch shook his head with a smile and said, "Back to Lord Qin, the miscellaneous family doesn't know, but the emperor is urgent, and there is something important to come." ”

He quietly revealed the emperor's meaning in his words, Qin Zheng understood, smiled and thanked him, straightened his official uniform, and followed him into the palace.

There was no one else in the imperial study except for the emperor, the huge study was empty, and the emperor behind the dragon case frowned, and his expression was really not very good-looking.

Qin Zheng turned a blind eye and went over to salute first: "Weichen knocks to see the emperor, long live my emperor." ”

Seeing Qin Zheng coming, the emperor nodded and asked first: "How was the interrogation in the past two days?" ”

Hearing the emperor's question, Qin Zheng said respectfully: "Back to the emperor, I am on trial, but what the little prince said is reversed, and what the ministers need to remove the false and keep the true, after it is verified to be true, it will definitely be returned as soon as possible." ”

The emperor has always been relieved of Qin Zheng's attitude, and when he heard his words at this time, he just nodded casually and said, "That's good." You come and see this. ”

The emperor changed his words and handed a letter on the dragon case to Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng took it with both hands, and after seeing the content on it, he didn't speak immediately.

On the contrary, the emperor saw his silent appearance, and said lightly: "If you have any ideas, tell me about it." ”

Hearing this, Qin Zheng lowered his eyes and said respectfully: "Weichen doesn't dare to say anything. ”

This is an excerpt handed over by the Criminal Department, and every word on it is pushed to a woman about the assassination in the hunting ground, as well as the previous intention to assassinate Shangguanyuan.

And that woman is suspected to be Princess Tai'an.

The reason why it is suspicious is because only she is the most suspicious in this matter. But now there are only human witnesses and no physical evidence, so the people in the Criminal Department do not dare to say exactly.

When the people from the criminal department went back and forth, they said that they had noses and eyes. When the hunting ground was in the beginning, only Princess Tai'an had this opportunity to let the assassin in, and what was it, if the assassin was not discovered by accident at that time, the nobles of the hunting ground were afraid that they would be in danger.

That's it, when it comes to Shangguanyuan, the people in the Criminal Department are even more heartfelt: "The hunting ground assassination failed, and now he wants to assassinate the prince of Zhennan, if the prince dies in the criminal department, all clues are interrupted, this is clearly forcing the Zhennan Wangfu to rebel!" ”

They said so, although they didn't say it, but they all revealed a message in their words, that is, the mastermind behind the scenes, that is, Princess Tai'an, the crime is unforgivable.

These people couldn't come up with physical evidence, so they only relied on human evidence to accuse Princess Tai'an, and after the emperor heard it, he directly scolded that person.

But scolding and scolding, the emperor also muttered in his heart.

If Princess Taean is really innocent, why would those people implicate her?

If she is not innocent, then how many things did this girl who was pampered by herself do behind her back that she didn't know, why did she let the assassin in, and why did she kill Shangguanyuan, could it be that she really colluded with others?

The emperor had doubts in his heart, and now that the second prince and the third prince were involved, he was already a little panicked in his heart, so he thought about it for a long time, but he still summoned Qin Zheng in the end.

The emperor's original intention was to let Qin Zheng take the eighteen secret guards to secretly investigate this matter, who knew that he had just started, and when he heard Qin Zheng's words, he couldn't help frowning and said: "You just say, I forgive you for your innocence." ”

As soon as these words came out, Qin Zheng thanked the emperor first, and then said: "There is no evidence, it is not enough to believe." ”

These eight words of his spoke to the emperor's heart.

It's just that......

"The Punishment Department won't say anything, either there's something wrong with the prisoner, or, it's—" 29GG

When the emperor said this, he did not continue, but paused, and said: "I will leave this matter to you, and go and find out to me." ”

When he said this, Fu lowered his voice again and said: "With the eighteen secret guards, as long as I have the truth, I don't have to scruple about anything else, understand?" ”

He dared to even make a move, let alone a princess.

The emperor didn't think that there were no fathers and sons in the heavenly family before, but now that he is older, he realizes that there are too many things to worry about.

He is already fifty years old, and even if he lied to himself that he was in the prime of life, he knew that his body was aging day by day.

And his children, however, are in their prime.

If they are united, as they were in the past......

The emperor didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Hearing this, Qin Zheng immediately said respectfully: "The minister obeys the order." ”

With the emperor's secret order, Qin Zheng had no trouble checking it, and in the afternoon of the same day, he arrested Princess Tai'an's personal maid by the entry and exit records.

Because it was caught in secret, it did not alarm Princess Tai'an.

The maid's name was Qiu He, and she was still a little arrogant when she was arrested, clamoring to report the matter to the princess.

It's a pity that she didn't even survive half an hour under Zheng Huailuo, and she confessed what she knew.

In the evening, Qin Zheng went to the palace with his confession.

"Your Majesty, this is a confession, please take a look."

When he saw Qin Zheng coming, the emperor had an answer in his heart, and at this time, he could hear him speak eloquently, and the emperor's heart skipped a beat.

After he took the confession, when he saw the content on it, his expression suddenly turned cold: "Have you ever verified it?" ”

The testimony of the palace people is clearly written, including how Princess Tai'an usually sent people out to commit murder, how she contacted people, and even the matter of the hunting ground, with this Qiu He has a different purpose.

The emperor naturally didn't want to believe it, but in fact, he already had the result in his heart.

Hearing his inquiry, Qin Zheng replied respectfully: "Back to the emperor, Weichen has already been suitable, there are indeed records of discrepancies, and the time and place are correct." And then there'...... The confession of the Criminal Department also read it, and it is consistent with this. ”

The emperor naturally knew that it was unanimous, but now that it was finally confirmed, he couldn't help but feel a little chilled, and said in a deep voice: "Come on, Xuan Tai'an is here." ”

Seeing that the emperor was about to summon him, Qin Zheng saluted exceptionally obediently: "Weichen will retire first." ”

Who knew that the emperor did not allow him to go, but said indifferently: "You can stay too, take a look for me." ”

He's old, but he's not old and dizzy, but his children can't wait to fool themselves for fools!

Rather than letting Qin Zheng stay and see, it is better to say that he plans to let Qin Zheng take people away directly after a while!

Hearing the emperor's words, Qin Zheng didn't say anything more, only saluted, and stood aside.

……

Princess Taean came quickly.

When she knew that the emperor was going to summon her, she suddenly felt uneasy in her heart, but before she could figure it out, she was brought by the inner chamberlain.

The inner chamberlain was followed by the Imperial Forest Army, and in such a big battle, it was as if he was afraid that he would run away.

As soon as this thought came out, Princess Tai'an's heart suddenly beat wildly, and she clearly realized that she was afraid that something would be revealed.

Her first reaction was that the previous assassination of Shangguanyuan was discovered, and after the incident, she had already thought of a lot of countermeasures, but when it really came to this time, Princess Tai'an felt that her brain was blank.

If he is really discovered by the emperor, can he exonerate himself with those people alone?

She thought wildly in her heart, in the past, she only felt that the distance was far away, but today it seems to be very close, and before she can figure it out, the imperial study has arrived.

This time, without even waiting for the inner chamberlain, she was directly taken in.

The emperor's face was solemn, and Princess Tai'an only saw it and felt a drum in her heart: "The son knocks on his father." ”
