Liu Shangqing cried with tears and snot at Emperor Pu Xuanhuang's mouth about the pain of losing his granddaughter.

"I understand, I have also lost my precious grandchild." Emperor Pu Xuan said sadly.

After all, the crown princess already has the flesh and blood of the royal family in her belly.

Weichen felt that the crown princess had gone wrong, she had never been afraid of ghosts, how could she be frightened crazy by ghosts? Someone must have deliberately harmed her, and implored the emperor to let Weichen open the museum for an autopsy. ”

Emperor Pu Xuan was silent.

I had a premonition that the death of the crown princess was not so simple, and I originally thought that Liu Shangqing would not have any suspicions, but I didn't expect him to finally poke open the hornet's nest.

With his own understanding of the crown princess and the crown prince, one is arrogant and the other is ambitious, and when the couple quarrels, tragedy is inevitable.

The possibility of the prince's accidental injury is very high - this is the most likely fact that Emperor Pu Xuan can be similar to - so this case cannot be investigated, no matter how he has to protect his son, even if he is not sensible and does not fight.

"Aiqing relaxes, who dares to harm the crown princess?" Emperor Pu Xuan persuaded.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are discouraged, and they have no intention of being Dazai again, so I implore the emperor to let the old man resign and go with his granddaughter." Liu Shangqing immediately took off his official hat and threatened him with death.

Emperor Pu Xuan's face was pulled down, this Dazai didn't give himself face too much, did he still regard himself as the emperor?

However, he thought about it again, if he had to suppress this matter, he was afraid that it would cause strong dissatisfaction among the Liu clan and its protégés.

Most of the generals guarding the northern frontier are the forces of the Liu clan, and if they rebel, the northern frontier will be chaotic.

If the northern Xinjiang is in turmoil, it will be difficult for Puguo to continue to maintain a peaceful and prosperous situation.

This is also the reason why he was forced to choose the fourth prince as the crown prince instead of his eldest son, King Qi, as the crown prince.

"Aiqing, don't get excited, you go to the side hall to rest first, and I will uphold justice. Come! He gave an order and passed Qiu Zhengyi to the court.

Qiu Zhengyi had expected that the emperor would summon him, and this matter was more or less deliberately provoked by himself, so of course he actively cooperated.

He thought that he was presiding over justice, but he only took into account the notarization of the law, and was bent on finding out the truth and catching the real culprit, but he couldn't understand the bitterness of Emperor Pu Xuanhuang who pressed the case and did not let it be investigated.

The contest of forces is much more complicated than the case itself.

Most of the important positions in Pu are hereditary for generations, and Emperor Pu Xuan also wants to transfer these people so that he can get rid of the control of some forces.

But the tree has deep roots, and if you want to change, it is difficult to go to the sky.

In addition, as he gets older, he no longer has so much ambition to make Puguo better.

Now it is the most prosperous period in the history of Puguo, and I don't want to change in my lifetime.

"If it is true that the crown princess was harmed by someone else, as Liu Dazai said, who do you think is the most likely person?" Emperor Pu Xuanhuang asked Qiu Zhengyi.

"Without evidence, the minister doesn't dare to speculate." Qiu Zhengyi didn't say what he really thought, hoping to open the museum for an autopsy, and then justifiably arrest the father-in-law of ochre.

"Liu Dazai threatened to open the museum with death, and I had to open it, do you know why?"

Qiu Zhengyi shook his head.

"It's not the capital that's in trouble, it's the frontier."

Qiu Zhengyi understood that the emperor was afraid of the forces represented by Liu Changqing.

He should have been afraid that the coffin would open and find out something unfavorable to the prince, so he asked himself.

Otherwise, he would have ordered himself to go directly to investigate the case.

This is also the reason why he pressed and did not let himself investigate the case, right?

"According to the minister's observation, there is a very suspicious one named Father-in-law Ochre." Qiu Zhengyi said what he knew.

After he began to suspect Father-in-law Ochre last night, he immediately asked people to take a closer look at Father-in-law's affairs.

It turned out that Father-in-law Ochre had raised an outer room outside the palace, and this outer room was the personal maid Axiu that the crown princess brought over from her mother's house.

If it weren't for the fact that there was some deal between the crown princess and Father-in-law Ochre, how could he give him such an important maid?

So, could it be that the crown princess has some handle on the father-in-law of ochre, so that he has murderous intentions?

When Emperor Pu Xuanhuang heard the three words of Father-in-law Ochre, he already had a rough idea in his heart.

The prince was still in his infancy, and this ochre father-in-law was already by the prince's side.

He was absolutely stupid and loyal to the crown prince.

The prince didn't trust anyone else, but he trusted him the most.

If it is a bad thing done by the Duke of Ochre, then it proves that the prince is the mastermind behind the scenes!

I really didn't expect the prince to behave like this!

The crown princess's family made a great contribution to him becoming the crown prince, and this is how he unloaded the mill and killed the donkey?

Unfilial son!

If the Liu family knew that he deliberately harmed the crown princess, would he pay it back?

They will definitely not let this ungrateful guy go!

"You, first arrest Father-in-law Ochre and torture him, no matter what, you must make him confess, and you can't let him bite indiscriminately!" Emperor Pu Xuan ordered.

He hinted to Qiu Zhengyi that this case must be decided when he goes to Father-in-law Zhe.

Qiu Zhengyi was so smart that he understood what the emperor meant, and sighed in his heart that the emperor was too protective.

But in front of the law and imperial power, of course, the imperial power is great!

He left immediately, rushed to the prince's mansion, and when he found Ochre's father-in-law, he found that this person had hanged himself in his bedroom.

He also left a suicide note beside him, saying that he had been tempted by the crown princess and forced himself to spy on the prince for her.

Because he was unwilling to betray the crown prince, he disobeyed the order of the crown princess, and was retaliated by the crown princess and threatened to kill himself.

I was scared for a while, so I scared the princess, and inadvertently injured her by mistake, causing one corpse and two lives, so the crime was unforgivable, and I apologized for my sin with death.

As soon as Qiu Zhengyi saw this suicide note, he felt that it was fake.

If I hadn't seen his majestic appearance with my own eyes last night, I might have believed it.

What kind of person is he who is willing to repent and commit suicide?

Qiu Zhengyi carefully examined the body and soon found that there was a foreign object in the mouth of the ochre father-in-law.

Although he did die of suffocation, someone gagged him to prevent him from screaming before he suffocated.

Therefore, his death is different from that of a natural hanging, and his tongue does not stick out according to common sense, but shrinks back abnormally.

Qiu Zhengyi went back to report the results of Emperor Pu Xuan's investigation.

Emperor Pu Xuan let out a long sigh -

The prince is really clever to himself.

If Father-in-law Ochre doesn't die, he can still find a way to make this eunuch bear all the responsibility.

However, as soon as Father-in-law Ochre died, doesn't it mean that there are still people who want to kill him?

In other words, there is a mastermind behind him.

This mastermind, as long as he is a clear-eyed person, can guess who it is.

"You shall not live if you have done your own iniquity!" Emperor Pu Xuan scolded.

I can be sure that I have thoroughly understood the character of the prince.

This kind of kindness will take revenge, be so cruel that he doesn't even want his own children, how can he be qualified to be the king of any country?

For the first time, Emperor Pu Xuan had the idea of abolishing the crown prince.

Since you want to abolish him, you can no longer tolerate him.

Let Yanagi Kiyoshi deal with him.

The so-called success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He.

He looked for Liu Shangqing and said tiredly: "In this case, after investigation, the father-in-law of ochre is the culprit, but he has committed suicide in fear of crime." I'm haggard, whether to open the coffin, you go to the prince to discuss, I don't care about this matter anymore. ”

Of course, Liu Shangqing didn't believe that a eunuch would dare to do such a rebellious thing, so he immediately returned to the prince's mansion to question the prince.

But the prince fainted in front of him, as if he was sad and overworked, and it was difficult to support his physical strength.

Liu Shangqing calmed down, thinking to himself, this ochre father-in-law will not die sooner or later, but he died when he asked for an autopsy in the coffin, doesn't it mean that once the coffin is opened for an autopsy, the truth of the princess's death will be revealed?

So what else is the test?

After testing, the murderer will only point to the dead eunuch.

This kind of substitute ghost has seen a lot in my life.

You don't have to guess to understand that the mastermind behind the scenes is the prince!

What a white-eyed wolf who crossed the river and demolished the bridge!

If the old man can let you come to power, he will also let you go down!!

The old man must avenge this deep hatred for his granddaughter!
