Chapter 56: The Murderer Lies on the Case
Qian Yan came to the box on the second floor, and the soldiers did not let them enter the box because Qian Yan specially instructed them not to enter the box when they left, so none of them rushed in.
They saw Qian Yan and Huang Yu coming over and told them about the situation here. Huang Yu waved his hand, and he didn't need to say: "I already know, you go down and guard." ”
Qian Yan came to the place where she had just seen the man in black standing in the tavern opposite, and sprinkled a handful of red powder, revealing a footprint. He collected one of the footprints and compared them with the ones he had just collected, only one of them was the corresponding footprint.
Huang Yu was puzzled: "Isn't it that there were two murderers present when this murder happened, and now only one has come." ”
Chiyan: "It's not necessarily the murderer at the scene. ”
Huang Yu: "Lord Qianyan means ......"
The night passed quickly, and the sun rose and the moon set. Qianyan changed into court clothes and walked into the palace gate step by step, the hour was still early, and the emperor had not yet announced the decree to the court. Qian Yan stood behind the ministers and waited quietly, and the Seven Princes stood at the head of the ministers, turned around and saw Qian Yan behind, and immediately left there and walked towards Qian Yan.
"The Seven Princes." Qian Yan bowed to him.
The Seventh Prince held him: "Between you and me, there is no need to be polite. The Seventh Prince looked left and right, "There are a lot of people here, let's go over there and say." ”
Qian Yan and the Seven Princes walked to the side, and Qian Yan looked at the Seven Princes and said, "What is the matter with the Seven Princes?" ”
Seeing that there was no one left and right, the Seventh Prince blurted out eagerly: "I heard someone say last night that you have found evidence, and you can be sure that the evidence is really the murderer, and he may be caught." ”
The Seventh Prince hurriedly said his thoughts, and Qian Yan interrupted him: "The Seventh Prince doesn't have to worry, the ministers have a way to deal with it." ”
The Seventh Prince wanted to say this, but looking at Qianyan's calm and confident appearance, he was a little anxious and slowly settled down: "It's good that Lord Qian is sure." If I have no choice but to do so, I will definitely save my life. ”
The door of the Jinluan Hall slowly opened, and a big eunuch came out of it and said in a loud voice, "Go to court!"
Shu Yao packed up her things from morning to afternoon, and in the evening, Shu's mother came back. Shu Yao walked out of the door, saw her mother changing shoes in the door, saw her come out, beckoned her and said, "Are all the things packed?" ”
Shu Yao looked back at his luggage: "It's almost there." ”
Shu's mother came over to pull her: "Go back to the room to change clothes first, and I'll go out later." ”
Shu Yao was pushed back to the room by Shu's mother, and turned her head to look at her: "Where are you going to change your clothes?" ”
Shu's mother said: "I, I just learned from your aunt that Xiao Yu is also going to school in C University, let's talk to their family about sending you two to go to school in C University tomorrow." ”
Shu Yao couldn't believe it: "Xin Yuchen was also admitted to C University, why didn't he tell me?" ”
Shu's mother took a sip of water: "Yes, you don't know if Auntie Xin, she also saw that school was about to start in the past two days, and she forced him to ask the result." Okay, anyway, the result is that the two of you are going to go to school together in District C University, and it just so happens that you have also been going to school together since you were a child, and you are also familiar with it, and you also have someone to take care of in other provinces. ”
Before Shu Yao could digest this information, she was dragged out by her mother.
Facing up, the emperor sits on a high position and accepts the worship of the ministers below. He looked at Qian Yan below and said, "Outside the thousand people, how is this case?" ”
Qian Yan came out of the team and replied, "Back to the emperor, the evidence has been found." ”
"Now that you've found evidence, why don't you arrest the murderer?"
"Your Majesty, this person, the minister is not qualified to arrest him, this may require the emperor to order Dali Temple to follow the ministers to catch the murderer."
The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Oh, who is this murderer, he actually wants to use this Dali Temple." ”
"The emperor will find out later." Qianyan deliberately sold Guanzi.
"Shaoqing of Dali Temple is there?"
Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who was standing on the left, stood up: "Back to the emperor, the minister is here." ”
Qian Yan approached the ears of Shaoqing of Dali Temple and whispered a few words in his ear. Shaoqing of Dali Temple looked at him incredulously, Qianyan nodded, Shaoqing of Dali Temple walked straight towards the murderer that Qianyan said, and caught him.
The prime minister was caught off guard by him and knelt on the ground. Looking at the Shaoqing of Dali Temple in front of him, he understood that he was now being arrested as a murderer, his face turned black all of a sudden, and he scolded: "Presumptuous, do you know what you are doing?" I'm a prime minister, you're presumptuous. ”
The emperor looked at the farce below, and couldn't help but be satisfied in his heart, but he still didn't know why on the surface: "Thousands of people, what does this mean?" ”
Qian Yan replied: "The emperor doesn't know, when the minister entered the prison the day before yesterday, he had ordered someone to sprinkle oil wax in the box of Chang Gongzi in the tavern, since the murderer wants to kill this Chang Gongzi, then he will inevitably enter the private room inside, since he wants to enter the private room, then there will definitely be footprints, and once the footprints are covered with oil and wax, there will be a layer of marks." As long as these footprints are passed, plus the wax that was newly sprinkled yesterday, as long as the murderer enters the private room again, the minister can obtain his footprints. ”
After hearing this, the emperor's expression was uncertain: "If you only rely on these evidences, it doesn't seem to be enough to prove that this murderer is the prime minister." ”
"Your Majesty, after listening to the minister, although these footprints are not enough to prove that the murderer is the prime minister, the ministers have sprinkled red powder near this tavern. Ordinary people can't take these ten steps if the soles of their shoes are stained with this red powder, but if the soles of the shoes are stained with wax, if they are stained with this red powder, they can't be taken off so easily. The minister tracked all the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find the real murderer. ”
The prime minister knelt on the ground and scolded: "You are talking nonsense, I have never done this." ”
Qian Yan glanced at him: "I didn't say that the prime minister did this, but it has nothing to do with the prime minister." This person is the chief butler in the Prime Minister's house, and the emperor knows everything about him when he catches him. ”
The emperor waved his hand: "Shaoqing of Dali Temple, you go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and be sure to capture the murderer." ”
Shaoqing of Dali Temple took a group of people to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister knelt on the ground, looking calm, as if he firmly believed that he did not do this, and his back was straight.
The young young master of Dali Temple came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the one who opened the door was the big butler they wanted to capture. They directly arrested the person, and the chief butler did not panic, but calmed down: "Who are you?" Why are you arresting me? ”
Huang Yu came with Shaoqing of Dali Temple, heard his words, and said coldly: "This is Lord Shaoqing of Dali Temple, the emperor and I are waiting to capture you, if you have anything to say, you can tell the emperor." ”
Shaoqing and Huang Yu of Dali Temple pressed people to the court, and the big housekeeper knew that he had been exposed when he looked at such a formation.
Qian Yan took out the two pieces of evidence with footprints from his sleeve and handed them to Shaoqing of Dali Temple: "These are the two footprints obtained in that private room, as long as you compare them, you can know whether the son of Lord Chang is killed by him, and I hope that Lord Shaoqing will help compare them." ”
