Chapter 114: Cross-examination

Their master and servant returned to Jing Zhaoyin's mansion with their own thoughts.

Palace.

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department stood in the imperial study, and the burning earth dragon in the imperial study made him feel a little stuffy.

The emperor took a cup of tea and took a sip gently, "It's done so quickly?" How many are there? ”

The criminal department Shangshu clenched his fists.

"Your Majesty, the amount of gold in the Anguo Mansion is huge, and I am afraid that it will take more than a month to weigh and calculate."

The emperor's action of drinking tea stopped, raised his eyes to look at the book of the criminal department, and waited for him to follow.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department said: "It was His Royal Highness who dug up gold in Jing Zhaoyin's courtyard. ”

The emperor's face suddenly sank.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department immediately bowed his head, "The Fourth Highness investigated the matter of Jing Zhao Yin's golden belt, and Jing Zhao Yin insisted that the belt was picked up. ”

The emperor listened and snorted coldly.

"The Fourth Highness said that he didn't believe it when he picked up the belt, but since he dug up the gold in the courtyard of the Anguo Mansion before, the Fourth Highness thought that he might be able to dig something in the courtyard of Jing Zhaoyin, so he asked Lu Zhan to dig it, and as a result, he dug up the gold, and when he dug it out, Lu Zhan went to the Anguo Mansion to call the ministers over."

Emperor......

This fourth child, can you say that he is stupid or can you say that he is lucky!

The gold was dug up in the courtyard of Anguo Gong, and he would use the same method to dig up someone else's yard if he decided the case.

It's not stupid or anything!

Sure enough, it's a stupid species!

But it really let him dig it out.

It can be seen that luck is such a thing, and it is taken advantage of stupid people.

Wait a minute......

Wasn't Tengu also involved in the case?

Perhaps, it was the tengu who pointed him out!

It's not right, the heavenly dog psychic is also connected with me, how can I guide him?

In the emperor's heart, his thoughts turned over and over.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at the emperor's expression and continued: "The minister went to check the gold, and the dried soil on the gold is the same as the color and texture of the soil on the gold of the Anguo Mansion, and it can be basically concluded that it is from the same place. ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately blocked the emperor's heart to slander the four princes.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned black like splashed ink.

Mr. and Mrs. An told him that they had dug up the gold from Linglong Mountain for the original letter.

It's to secretly help him suppress the insufficient dragon veins.

It is to make up for the gold in his five elements.

And An Guogong swore to heaven that after he dug up the gold, he didn't touch it at all.

He believed.

He actually believed.

Suddenly, the emperor was a little annoyed. 、

It seems that as long as it is related to the previous dynasty, as long as it is related to his throne, his reason will be reduced.

Now, Jing Zhaoyin's mansion has also dug up gold.

How to explain this!

If it's ordinary gold, it's just that, but it's still from the same source as An Guogong's.

The eyes of the yin owl narrowed slightly, and the emperor's eyes flashed with a surging murderous aura.

The breath of the imperial study suddenly became cold.

The criminal department Shangshu continued: "When the minister was called away from the Anguo Mansion, An Guogong didn't know about Jing Zhaoyin, and now the eldest prince is in Jing Zhaoyin's mansion, and the two sides should not know each other for a while. ”

The meaning of the words of the criminal department Shangshu is understood, and the emperor also understands it.

frowned, "What happened to the eldest prince?" ”

The secretary of the criminal department said: "The minister doesn't know, when the minister passed, His Royal Highness the eldest prince happened to be led to the door of the mansion by the steward of Jing Zhaoyin's mansion. ”

The emperor snorted coldly.

He knew about the eldest prince installing people in the palace of the four princes.

Concubine Jiang is doing things for the eldest prince, naturally Concubine Jiang's father has an accident, and the eldest prince wants to go and see.

If it's an ordinary thing, it's just a normal thing.

If the eldest prince knew about this matter but hid it from him......

Under the emperor's deep eyes, no one knows what emotions he has.

After being silent for a long time, the emperor's voice was slightly hoarse, "Put Jing Zhaoyin in the prison of the Criminal Department and put him on trial, as for the people in his mansion...... Women were slaves, men were exiled. ”

The criminal department was stunned.

Before the facts of the case could be carefully verified, His Majesty gave such an order.

In case Kyung Zhao Yin is wronged......

Thinking together, Shangshu of the Criminal Department shook his head with a smile in his heart.

How could it be wronged, it was the courtyard where Jing Zhaoyin lived by himself, who could hide the gold from him in his yard.

Still so much.

"Yes, the minister will do it! There ...... that Anguo Gong"

The emperor had a cruel smile on his cold face, "Don't alarm him yet, tell the commander of the forbidden army, let his people guard the courtyard, and no one is allowed to enter or leave." ”

The people of the Criminal Department were checking the gold in that courtyard, and An Guogong and his wife must have accompanied them.

If no one is allowed to enter or leave, it is house arrest.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department received the order and turned to leave.

The moment before he walked out of the imperial study, a small chamberlain hurriedly left the door of the imperial study and walked outside.

Concubine Li's palace maid happened to be waiting there.

After a whisper, the palace maid left in a hurry.

In the imperial study, as soon as the secretary of the criminal department left, the emperor asked the chief of the chamberlain to call Zhao Jide.

"Tell me about Linglong Mountain again."

With a gloomy face, the emperor sat behind the bookcase and said in a low voice.

Zhao Jide knelt on the ground, his heart moved.

The last time he returned, the emperor was more concerned, but it fell on the relationship between him and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.

At that time, the emperor was only afraid that he was still suspicious, and he joined forces with Shangshu of the Criminal Department to try to overthrow An Guogong.

Although that's just the way it is.

However, at the moment......

Is it something that's going on out there? Let the emperor have a new view on this matter.

Taking a silent breath, Zhao Jide said again how to discover the gold mine, as it was last time.

After his words fell, the emperor said: "The big Liu you are talking about, where is he at the moment?" ”

Zhao Jide......

After he finished talking last time, the emperor didn't send someone to interrogate him at all?

What a dog emperor this is!

In Zhao Jide's heart, he will always remember the kindness of the former queen, so he has a psychological rejection of the current emperor.

It's just that he didn't show it.

"Da Liu was detained by the minister and entered Beijing, and the minister entered Beijing first, so Da Liu should be with the minister's family."

He was not sure what he said.

After all, he was placed under house arrest when he entered the palace.

The emperor frowned and looked at Zhao Jide, "Are you complaining about me?" ”

Zhao Jide immediately hit his head on the ground, "The minister doesn't dare, Your Majesty is aware of it, and the minister just knows everything." ”

The emperor snorted coldly.

"There's a merchant in Yuzhou who calls Qianlai?"

Zhao Jide was stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "Yes, it is a more prestigious local merchant in Yuzhou, his son is studying in Kyoto, and I heard that he is a classmate with the third young master of the Anguo Mansion." ”

He wanted to say this for a long time, but he never had the chance.

Finally, the emperor asked.

Gee~

This emperor is really far worse than the first emperor!

The emperor listened and was silent for a moment, "What kind of business is Qianlai for?" ”

"Your Majesty, fat powder business."

"He was in the fat powder business from his ancestors? Or ......"

Zhao Jide looked like he was looking back, and then said: "Qian Laizu has no business, he worked in Kyoto in the early years, and later made some money and went back to Yuzhou to open a fat powder shop, and the business is getting bigger and bigger. ”

Things to do in Kyoto......

I'm afraid I'm doing things with An Guogong.

An Guogong himself admitted that he privately opened a gold mine in Yuzhou, and he entrusted money to take care of it.

But if this gold mine is really for the dragon vein, how can the money be wiped out by An Guogong?

If you don't have a weak heart, why do you need to extinguish your mouth.
