After being silent for a while, Lou Yan replied: "Yesterday I was on the street and met them fighting. ”

"You said Zheng Xiaogongzi and Xining Wang Shizi?"

Lou Yan nodded: "At that time, the prince of Xining was very drunk. ”

Yu Shenzhi's brows furrowed: "The king of Xining brought his son into Beijing, how could he be so negligent in discipline." ”

The king with a different surname is also the king of the real power, so he is not afraid of being included in the book?

Look at Lou Yi, on the first day of entering Beijing, he had a fight with Lou Yan, this was just a farce of brothers holding their own words, and the emperor's imperial case was full of transcripts the next day.

"I see that the king of Xining knows the severity, and when he sent his son back yesterday, he also came out to thank him."

Yu Shenzhi was even more strange: "Then why did you still let him get drunk today?" ”

"Yes! I don't understand. ”

While the two were talking, Shangshu of the Criminal Department and Dali Siqing came out of the house.

They each walked out and went over to greet them.

"Xue Shangshu."

"Master Lee."

Both Shangshu of the Criminal Department and Dali Siqing were a little surprised.

"You two ......"

Lou Yan is the former subordinate of Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and Yu Shenzhi is the current subordinate of Dali Siqing.

Yu Shenzhi pretended not to see the strange eyes of the two, and asked his boss with a smile: "Master Li, let's take a look and see if you can help." ”

Dali Siqing nodded with satisfaction.

This Yu Da is really quite sensible. I usually do things very reliably, and I know how to take the initiative to help on this occasion.

"Okay, follow me to the autopsy."

"Yes." Yu Shenzhi raised his eyebrows proudly.

Lou Yan turned a blind eye and only waited for the instructions of the Criminal Department.

It stands to reason that Lou Yan has been transferred out of the Criminal Department, and he cannot be regarded as a subordinate. However, the criminal department still considers it.

His Majesty relied on him very much, and I think he can best understand His Majesty's thoughts, and if he takes it with him, he can avoid some trouble.

"Lou Si, you're here to help too?" The criminal department Shangshu asked with a smile.

Lou Yan replied: "Xiaguan happened to meet Shi Shizi yesterday, and he wanted to help the adults investigate the case, so he came to talk to the adults." ”

"Oh?" Shangshu of the Criminal Department touched his beard with relief, "What do you know?" ”

He repeated yesterday's events, and both adults fell into deep thought.

That's a bit weird! It sounds ridiculous that the prince of Xining has been drunk for two days in a row. But when he was a little sober just now, his answer was still very organized.

In any case, this has been confirmed beforehand.

If there is no relevant evidence to prove that it has nothing to do with the prince of Xining, then it will be difficult for him to get away with it.

Whether it is Lin Changbo or the king of Xining, they don't have much to do with them, and the two adults are very calm.

While talking, the clerk and others arrived wiping their sweat.

It's a good longevity festival, they are all on vacation, but they didn't expect to be suddenly called into the palace.

The first time I entered the palace, it was for a murder.

Everyone entered the next door, and Lin Changbo's family had been persuaded to stop.

Mrs. Lin Changbo whimpered and cried, Lin Changbo's eyes were straight, and the children surrounded and persuaded him, wiping his tears while persuading.

Yu Shenzhi sighed in his heart.

Although Zheng Xiaogongzi is a bastard, his parents are distressed!

"Adults!" Seeing them come in, Lin Changbo was agitated and hurriedly stood up.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department nodded and appeased: "Uncle's Day, let's take a look at the situation of the little boy." ”

Lin Changbo had red eyes and said murderously: "Please also ask the adults to make decisions for Xiao'er and bring his murderer to justice!" ”

"Don't worry, we'll enforce the law." After Dali Siqing finished speaking, he motioned for him to step forward.

He checked it and said, "My lord, he was drowned." ”

"No other injuries?"

He took off Zheng Xiaogongzi's clothes, examined them carefully, and said, "There is only one abrasion on the elbow." ”

Lin Changbo immediately said: "That is because Xiao'er quarreled with that kid from the Shi family yesterday and was accidentally injured." ”

"Then there won't be."

The cause of death is clear, that is, he was pushed into the river and drowned.

"Did he drink?" Yu Shenzhi asked.

He opened his mouth and sniffed it, and said, "The smell of wine is obvious, I should have drunk a lot." ”

This situation is even more unfavorable to the prince of Xining.

Both of them had drunk, and it was completely reasonable for them to have a conflict after drinking, and they pushed Zheng Xiaogongzi into the river on the spur of the moment.

Lou Yan walked over and grabbed Zheng Xiaogongzi's hand, there were only a few traces of aquatic plants.

The cause of death is correct, the suspect drank alcohol and does not remember anything, and now the evidence can only be checked.

The two adults went to the site to investigate, and the officials asked the guards for testimony, and the case progressed smoothly with almost no doubts.

Yu Shenzhi found an opportunity and secretly asked Lou Yan: "Are you still suspicious?" ”

"Hmm." Lou Yan didn't hide it from him.

"But the facts of the case are clear, Zheng Xiaogongzi was pushed into the river and drowned, and a palace maid saw it from a distance, and the guards heard the sound and found the prince of Xining by the river...... Everything makes sense. ”

"yes, that makes sense." Lou Yan deserves to be a little absent-minded.

Yu Shenzhi was unhappy: "Why are you suspicious?" Can't even I say that? ”

Lou Yan sighed and said, "Isn't it strange that there are no traces of a fight on Zheng Xiaogongzi's body at all?" ”

"You mean to say that the two of them clashed and fought, and it was impossible for them to go untraced?"

Lou Yan nodded.

Yu Shenzhi: "But we all know that there are many coincidences in the world, and things that are considered reasonable do not happen in many cases. If they were by the river, Zheng Xiaogongzi would be defenseless, and he might be pushed into the river at once, and there would be no need to fight at all. ”

"The situation you are talking about does exist." Lou Yan did not deny it.

"Then you still ......"

"Instinct it." Lou Yan said, "A kind of intuition that is threatening to me, I don't want this to happen." ”

Yu Shenzhi wondered.

Xining Wang Shizi is unlucky, what does it have to do with him? You can't beat it with eight poles!

The two walked to the door next door, but they heard the father and son of Xining Wang talking.

"What? I pushed the little boy of Linchang into the river? That's impossible! "This is the prince of Xining.

King Xining wrinkled his eyebrows: "For my father, I believe you won't do it, but the matter is in front of you." He drowned, you were on the scene, and you had a fight yesterday, what does that make anyone think? ”

Xining Wang Shizi said: "Father, I have explained to you, it was an accident yesterday. I don't know how to drink too much, and when I saw him embarrassed the little girl, I wanted to stop him. Who knew that he would not be relentless, and this is why he made a fuss. ”

"You still say! Tell you to restrain yourself, why are you so drunk? It's still Lord Lou who sent you back. ”

Wang Shizi of Xining had a weak heart: "I, I didn't expect the wine in the capital to be so strong!" I usually drink this amount at home, how do you know ......"

Lou Yan's heart moved: "It's ...... twice"

Yu Shenzhi was puzzled: "What twice?" ”

Lou Yan asked, "Do you think the wine in the capital is strong?" Is it strong today? ”

Yu Shenzhi shook his head. The people of Beijing drink and love sweetness, and it is really not strong. Especially at today's banquet, on the occasion of the emperor's presence, he took into account the problem of drunkenness and disgrace, and even the little girl could drink a lot of fruit wine.

The two looked at each other and realized that something was wrong.
