Princess Zhan changed her gentle appearance, and her eyes became sharp, "This time, King Rui actually went to search for Shang Zhaoyi's incriminating evidence, isn't it, Shang Zhaoyi and Concubine Lan fell out?" ”

"That's not a good thing." Blue Mirror's brows furrowed.

"How?" Princess Zhan was holding Tang Pozi in her hand, but her body was sitting straight, "Shang Zhaoyi has been leaning against the big tree of Lan Guifei all these years, I don't know how many immoral things I have done openly and secretly, these two people have broken up, wouldn't it be the fulfillment of Concubine Duan, who has just come out of the cold palace, and Concubine Cheng's life can be better!" ”

Lan Jing shook his head, "We were about to take Shang Zhaoyi under the knife, and dragged the seedling of Lan Guifei along the vine, at this time they broke up, Lan Guifei will inevitably find ways to destroy all the evidence about her that Shang Zhaoyi may confess, when the time comes, what will we do to repay the innocence of the queen mother?" ”

Lan Jing jumped down from the chaise longue, "I'll go into the palace with you to see what's going on?" ”

"Okay." Beitang Junlin responded, "Don't rush to see Concubine Lan, ask Concubine Duan and Concubine Cheng clearly, and wait for me to come back, and then make plans." ”

The couple hurriedly said goodbye to Princess Zhan, didn't even return to the palace, and went directly to the palace.

At the fork in the road between the imperial study and Yuxiu Palace, before Lan Jing had time to walk in the direction of Yuxiu Palace, he saw a little eunuch and said: "Princess Jiangdu, Your Majesty invites you to go to the imperial study with the prince." ”

Lan Jing was taken aback: "Your Majesty knows that I am coming?" ”

The chamberlain bent over, "Your Majesty said, if the king of Jiangdu comes alone, let the prince go by himself, if the princess of Jiangdu comes with the prince, let the two go to the imperial study together." ”

Lan Jing and Beitang Jun's Landing were suddenly shocked, the emperor is this, do you know that they are investigating the queen's affairs?

Beitang King's Landing took Blue Mirror's hand and walked towards the Imperial Study, pinching Blue Mirror's fingers, and the latter's thumping letter suddenly stabilized.

In the imperial study, there were still a few people from yesterday, and there were two more people, Lan Jing and Beitang Junlin glanced at each other, and gave the emperor a salute, and the emperor actually said to Lan Jing in person: "Princess Jiangdu, these two, you don't know each other, they are all our Kyushu country's investigation masters, Qin Feng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Zhan Ning, the secretary of Dali Temple." ”

Lan Jing looked surprised, and the emperor smiled and said, "Why, I didn't expect our two major detectives in Kyushu to be so young, right?" ”

"Uh" Lan Jing hesitated for a moment, "The daughter-in-law didn't expect that the dignified criminal department secretary was actually a white-clothed scholar, and the minister's daughter-in-law always thought that the criminal department secretary should be an old-fashioned and serious adult, just like the prime minister when he didn't speak." ”

The prime minister was stunned, the emperor laughed, and everyone else laughed.

Blue Mirror blinked, "Did my father call us?" ”

There is no one who has changed the topic so aggressively, and has shifted so obviously and so justifiably.

However, today's emperor was not in the mood to joke with Lan Jing anymore, and said directly: "King Jing, tell me about your investigation results." ”

"Yes, Father." Unexpectedly, Beitang Junli did not propose to let Lan Jing avoid suspicion, and directly said, "Yesterday, I got the order to let the three brothers investigate the case, and after the son left the imperial study, he found the Dali Temple's servant to go to the autopsy, and the autopsy found that the woman who died in Yongning Palace yesterday turned out to be the palace maid Yuqing next to the first queen, so he immediately notified King Rui. ”

Immediately afterwards, Beitang Junqin answered, "Because Erchen had been in charge of the Criminal Department before, he immediately sent someone to search Yuqing's whereabouts after leaving the palace, and learned that Yuqing got married after leaving the palace, and immediately chased her home, only to find that her husband had also died, and the only daughter was missing. ”

"Zhan Siqing has always been good at searching for evidence, and it is normal for him to be able to find evidence that others can't find." Qin Sang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, looked impressed.

Zhan Ning shook his head modestly, "I just happen to be good at finding things, unlike Qin Shangshu, if you give you anything, you can find out a lot of things, this case can be solved, Qin Shangshu is indispensable." ”

"The case has been solved?" Blue Mirror is really very surprised, it has been less than twelve hours since the incident happened yesterday, and she thought it would take at least four or five days, but it was broken, which made her, an insider, feel wonderful.

Qin Sang nodded, "The princess doesn't need to be surprised, the three princes jointly investigated the case, but it was just a murder case that was not too complicated, if it really took six or seven days, it would make people laugh." ”

Lan Jing arched his hand towards Qin Sang, "In vain, I think I have some ability to reason and solve the case, and today I see Lord Qin's speed in solving the case, so I can be regarded as knowing what a real detective is, and I also ask Lord Qin to explain the case in detail." ”

"The princess has an overreputation." Qin Sang said politely, and then said: "In fact, this is a very simple murder case, Yuqing and Shang Zhaoyi were both the palace maids next to the queen's mother, Shang Zhaoyi did a bad thing for the glory and wealth, the people in the queen's palace were scattered, and they died, Yuqing was the only one who knew about it, Yuqing followed her husband away from Yongdu these years, so Shang Zhaoyi never made a move, knowing that Yuqing returned to Yongdu in August this year, Shang Zhaoyi's people went out again. ”

Lan Jing listened to the water, Qin Sang is a well-known detective in Yongdu, and he is also the secretary of the Criminal Department, the emperor, and several princes are here, it stands to reason that the story of the case should not be so general, almost the same as not saying it.

The emperor probably had read the evidence handed over by Qin Sang, that is, the correspondence between Shang Zhaoyi and Yuqing, so he did not object to Qin Sang's vague statement, and only said: "Shang Zhaoyi is in the palace, it is impossible to kill people by himself, how can the murderer be determined?" ”

Beitang Junli grabbed the words, "Back to my father, I have already investigated, the murderer who killed Yuqing may not be Shang Zhaoyi, but Shang Zhaoyi poisoned the Eighth Emperor Sister at the beginning, disfigured the Eighth Emperor Sister, suffered so many white eyes, and the misfortune of life is always true, this letter really says that Shang Zhaoyi asked Yuqing to find poison, this is an unchangeable fact." ”

Beitang Junli knows very well that Shang Zhaoyi has been attached to Lan Guifei for many years, if Shang Zhaoyi can be brought down, Lan Guifei's strength will be somewhat damaged, and Lan Guifei's strength in the harem will be damaged, which means that Beitang Junqin will have less power to speak by the emperor's side, so he can't wait to convict Shang Zhaoyi.

"Your Majesty, at present, Shang Zhaoyi is indeed the main suspect, but the case has only been committed for less than a day, and we still need time to verify, look at this ......"

Jenning stopped halfway through his words, bowing his head and waiting for the emperor's will.

In the huge imperial study, there was silence.

When he was young, the emperor spoke out, "Spread my will, Shang Zhaoyi is suspected of killing the former Qiwu Palace maid Yulu, temporarily banned from He Fangdian, during the grounding period, you are not allowed to interact with anyone, and those who violate it will be punished as a murderer and the same party." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Qin Sang and Zhan Ning agreed together, Lan Jing and the three brothers of Beitang Junlin did not make a sound, they were called into the palace early in the morning, and they were surprised for so long when they heard that the case was solved, but as a result, it turned out to be just a few letters that proved that Shang Zhaoyi and Yuqing had dealings, and the only useful thing was probably to confirm that the poison before the eighth princess was indeed Shang Zhaoyi's, even if the murder case did not fall on her, she could only spend the rest of her life in the cold palace.

The eunuch beside the emperor took the holy decree that the ink was not dry and took the guards to He Fangdian to put Shang Zhaoyi under house arrest, and Beitang Junqin stood there with an unkind face, "Father, since the Criminal Department and Dali Siqing have intervened, isn't it, this case no longer needs to be investigated by the sons and the eldest emperor, and the fourth emperor's brother will investigate again?" ”

"Keep looking." The emperor had a cold face, and his eyes fell on the brothers of Beitang King's Landing, "It's still the same sentence, in seven days, a few of you can't find out, from the first to the fifteenth day of the new year, you should go to patrol the city and the imperial history." ”

Lan Jing's eyebrows twitched when he heard this, "Father, can the courtiers and daughters-in-law investigate the case with the prince?" ”

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lan Jing added, "After all, the incident happened in the harem, I went in and out of the harem and asked the palace maids about the situation, which is much more convenient than you princes, you are all one by one, your face is stinky, and the timid palace maids dare not speak, how can this case be investigated?" ”

Beitang Junqin and Beitang Junli glanced at each other, and Beitang Junqin said: "If the fourth brother and sister join, it will be a good thing, but I don't know what my father wants?" ”

This emperor seemed to be accustomed to using silence to test people's patience, and after a long silence, he nodded, "Since Princess Jiangdu took the initiative to ask to join, Shu allowed you, and you can't find out within the time limit, at the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, you have to prepare a program that satisfies Shu and everyone, how?" ”

"The daughter-in-law obeys!"

Lan Jing agreed, so she naturally joined this case that was originally led by herself, just waiting for Beitang Junli or Beitang Junqin to find out more truth after Shang Zhaoyi killed Yulu and killed her mouth.

Leaving the imperial study, Lan Jing almost wanted to scold, "If the matter is found out like this, I will report to the emperor, how come I don't know that our majesty has such a good temper?" ”

Beitang Junli rubbed the back of her neck comfortingly, "Neither the eldest brother nor the second emperor brother wants to let the other party take the lead, so, as soon as there is something that can be said, of course, you have to run to your father to ask for credit as soon as possible, and the father is not angry, because he already understands that this matter is not just as simple as Shang Zhaoyi's murder, at least Lan Guifei is involved, so what is the final truth of this matter, it is still up to the father to have the final say." ”

"Even if we send the ironclad evidence of Concubine Lan Guifei's framing of the queen mother to him, wouldn't it be useless?"

Lan Jing knew that in the world of imperial power, there was no fairness at all, but she didn't believe that the god of war in Beitang King's Landing would let her mother die in vain and would not argue.

"To be called ironclad evidence in front of my father, there is no other way than to let Concubine Lan and Shang Zhaoyi say it in person."

"Do you remember when I was interrogated in the palace dungeon?"

"You're talking about the kind of whistle that makes the mouth speak the truth?"
