Chapter 235: Re-examination
In the letter, the prince said that he had found a miracle doctor and that the poison had been cured.
As soon as the emperor opened the letter, he saw the news, and his brows were relieved, he thought that the father-son affection for this son was very weak, and after he was poisoned, he tried his best to treat him, meet his requirements, and make every effort to find out the person who poisoned him and punish him, and he had fulfilled his father's responsibility.
But these days, he found that this was not all the case, the prince was poisoned, and he knew that the prince's poison had not been solved, and it seemed that he could only delay time.
And now that he saw that his eldest son's poison had been cured, a sense of joy and relief burst out in his heart that he couldn't figure out himself.
Gonggong Qiu saw that the emperor was looking at the prince's letter, and his face eased a lot when he looked at it.
He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the emperor had just made a fire in the front hall before, and the second prince was ordered to figure out the accounts of the colorful beads and seven-colored shellfish produced by Maoyuan Mansion in the past two years, and handed them over to Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate for inspection, the emperor's dictation is to check the accounts, but once the accounts are checked, it is not only a matter of accounts, but also people, officials of Maoyuan Mansion.
In fact, the civil officials of Maoyuan Mansion had already changed a round as early as last year, and it had been found out that the accounts of the colorful beads and seven-colored shells in Maoyuan Mansion were wrong, but the final result was that the colorful beads and seven-colored shells that could be integrated into the weapons of the battle clothes were sold by those corrupt officials, of course, they were sold to the merchants of Daning, and the merchants made them into jewelry and melted them into brocade, which became the favorite of the noble ladies and daughters.
In fact, Daning has a certain number of restrictions on the annual flow of colorful beads and seven colored shells into the market, but this restriction is not rigorous, and the annual flow of colorful pearls and seven colored shells into the market is almost higher than the limit, as long as the above is not checked, this matter will not be easily exposed.
But Emperor Ning Kang never imagined that someone would be so bold to sell these two treasures to Xisha, these two treasures are expressly forbidden by Daning's laws and regulations to flow outside the territory of Daning, and even ordinary people know about it.
What's more, if you want to use these two treasures to enhance the defense of the suit and the attack power of the weapon, a small amount is useless at all, and now since Xie Yan said that a small half of the Xisha soldiers who attacked Shacheng are equipped with this kind of suit and weapon, how can he not make Emperor Ning Kang angry.
And the prince did not mention the matter of colorful beads and seven-colored shells in the letter, he just said about his poisoning, and went through the events that happened before and after his poisoning, without letting go of any details, and finally told the emperor that the six princes were not the murderers who poisoned him, and hoped that the emperor would withdraw the wanted warrant for the six princes and the grounding order of the queen's mother.
"Not the Sixth?"
Father-in-law Qiu heard the emperor say something to himself, just these four words, and Father-in-law Qiu guessed what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said in the letter.
Involving the six princes, there is only the poisoning of His Royal Highness the Prince, and now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has personally written to explain to the emperor that it is not the six princes, and the emperor may have to weigh it in his heart.
In fact, the emperor may not have had no suspicions, after all, the evidence that pointed to the six princes was too simple, and the speed and quality of the harem investigation were even more powerful than the professional departments of the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department, as the emperor of Daning, he would not be without suspicion, he actually sent someone to visit secretly, but there was no difference between what was found and what was found in the harem, so it was only over.
He finally thought that this matter might be done by Xie Xuan, but when Xie Xuan made up his mind to poison the prince, he had already been noticed by Concubine Yun and the second child, not only did they not stop it, but let the sixth child do it, and also collected evidence later.
killed two birds with one stone, but Emperor Ning Kang did not blame the second prince, after all, he also came from the prince, and asked himself, if he was still the prince at the beginning, he encountered this situation, it was an opportunity sent by God, would he let it go in vain?
No, his choice will be exactly the same as his second son, so for what the second prince did, Ning Kangdi acquiesced.
But this does not mean that Emperor Ning Kangdi can have no bottom line, at first he thought that the sixth prince poisoned the prince, and he would order the arrest of the six princes, but now since the prince said that he is not the sixth prince, although the prince did not clearly point out who is the real murderer, but Ning Kangdi is not a fool, and the suspicion of the second prince is almost imminent.
There is also the matter of the colorful beads and seven-colored shellfish in the front, Emperor Ning Kangdi was the most impatient with the second prince Xie Ling at this time, it can be said that the time when the prince's secret letter was sent was very coincidental.
"Go, call Fang Jin!" Emperor Ning Kangdi put down the letter and instructed Gonggong Qiu, who was waiting on the side.
Gonggong Qiu didn't dare to ask more, and the commander bowed and retreated.
Fang Jin is the secretary of Dali Temple, and the military department is busy dispatching troops, dispatching grain and grass, and supporting Shacheng, and their Dali Temple is not at all easier than the military department.
The case of the colorful beads and the seven colored shells is very important, and it can even be said that it is related to Daning's current internal and external troubles, and the pressure on him, the Dali Siqing, can be imagined.
Now that he was summoned by the emperor, he thought it was for this matter, but he didn't expect the emperor to ask him to re-investigate the matter of the prince's poisoning.
Fang Jin's head was sweating, and he wanted to say that several months had passed, and the evidence had long been gone, and now there was the matter of colorful beads and seven-colored shells in front of him, and this matter should be taken seriously.
But before he could speak, Emperor Ning Kangdi told him many of the experiences and details that the prince said in the letter, and the people and things involved were also said, and finally directly ordered: "Just follow this to investigate!"
Fang Jin listened directly, but he was the secretary of Dali Temple, and he had investigated the case for decades, and he was the most discerning, even if the emperor didn't say it explicitly, but from the things that the emperor just told him, he could also distinguish one thing, that is, it seemed that the prince's poison had been resolved.
This is big news, and if he guesses correctly, he is the first person in the Manchu Dynasty to know this big news.
"Yes, Weichen received the order, and he will definitely investigate carefully to find out the causes and consequences of His Royal Highness the Prince's poisoning!"
Now that the crown prince's poison has been resolved, and now the emperor obviously has a dislike for the second prince, and according to what he has found out in the past few days, the second prince ...... Gee...... Fang Jin shook his head in his heart.
He has to take this case anyway, it is better to take it more beautifully, and when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows, it will be good for himself and even the Yamen of Dali Temple.
Emperor Ning Kang issued an order to transfer troops to support Shacheng in Beiyingcheng.
The war in the West was fought by March Song Xiaochi and Xie Yan
's wedding date is naturally going to be delayed, and Liu Mingxin, who originally wanted to come to the West to play and participate in Song Xiaochi's wedding, naturally can't come.
Jiang and Qu Wenshu felt aggrieved for Song Xiaochi, Qu Wenshu scolded Xisha countless times, although Song Xiaochi herself felt regretful, but she didn't feel anything about the delay in the marriage, but the fact that she couldn't meet Liu Mingxin made her feel more regretful.
