Chapter 450: Do You Know?
"No need, Lord Wang, now that the time is over, His Majesty the Emperor must already be resting, so it is inconvenient to disturb, so I will assist you in hearing this case overnight as the Great Xiao National Teacher!" Xiao Qiongzhi pondered for a moment and said.
This case involves Ske, and Ske made the Yilan Empire and Da Xiao formally establish diplomatic relations on an equal footing a while ago, that is, Ske is on an equal footing with her grandfather Xiao Xuanliang in Da Xiao.
Under such circumstances, as Wang Zhengrong's status as the secretary of the Criminal Department, he has no right to interrogate Sk.
Wang Zhengrong could think of notifying Xiao Xuanliang to come over and try himself, which was very wise and understandable.
However, Xiao Qiongzhi felt that it was impossible for Ske to be involved in this case, he was innocent, and with his relationship with Ske, there was no need to interrogate him at all, and he should cooperate with himself to find out the case.
"Okay, then, please take a seat, Your Highness." Wang Zhengrong said immediately.
Xiao Qiongzhi came to the side as Princess Zhong Ling before, and according to the rules, as long as she sat on the side.
Now, Xiao Qiongzhi is assisting Wang Zhengrong in trying the case as a national teacher, according to the rules, Xiao Qiongzhi has to sit in the middle hall, and Wang Zhengrong sits aside.
"Okay." Xiao Qiongzhi nodded.
She never liked to sit in the seat that others had just sat in, so she stood up and deliberately asked Hongxing to pick up the chair she was sitting on and moved it behind the desk in the middle hall before sitting down upright.
As for the chair that Wang Zhengrong sat on, Wang Zhengrong had already moved it to the side with his eyes and hands when Xiao Qiongzhi asked Hongxing to move the chair.
Then, he didn't sit in his seat anymore, and stood directly on the side of Xiao Qiongzhi's desk, making a gesture of listening to Xiao Qiongzhi's orders at any time.
Xiao Qiongzhi was very satisfied with his posture and did not be polite to him.
At this time, Xue Rong's group of arresters who had stayed in Zhang's Mansion to be in charge of the raid entered the lobby of the Criminal Department with fifty or sixty masters and subordinates of Zhang's Mansion.
The lobby of the Criminal Department suddenly became a lot more crowded.
Xiao Qiongzhi glanced at the group of people in the Meng Mansion led by Meng Xiaoshuang, and then at the group of people in the newly entered Zhang Mansion, thought about it, pointed at them, and whispered to Wang Zhengrong: "Lord Wang, so many people are staying here, it's a bit chaotic. ”
"Anyway, we have obtained Caixia's confession, and there are conclusive human and physical evidence to prove Zhang Ruoyao's crime, and the confessions of the rest of Zhang's mansion are no longer so important."
"It's better for you to arrange for Xue Rong to open another court and let him be responsible for interrogating the people of the Zhang Mansion."
"Yes, Your Highness." Wang Zhengrong immediately did so.
Xiao Qiongzhi looked to Zuo Fang and Fang Zuo, and ordered them in a deep voice: "Zuo, Fang Zuo, you can also take off the black scarf of another masked man!" ”
Zuo Fang and Fang Zuo nodded and untied the black scarf of the other masked man.
Xiao Qiongzhi took a closer look and found that this masked man was actually someone she knew!
Even the name, she knew, was called Ruoye.
This Ruoye, in the Ilan Palace, served as the deputy chief of the guards of the close guard of the Seike, and won the trust of Ske.
Five years ago, when Ske took Xiao Qiongzhi to travel around the Ilan Empire, Ruo Yedu was arranged by Ske to bring a two-hundred-man guard cavalry, responsible for opening the way in front.
Even, once, passing by Ruoye's hometown, Ske also took Xiao Qiongzhi to Ruoye's house together, had a light meal, and took out a lot of good things to reward Ruoye's family.
Xiao Qiongzhi was also funny at that time, and rewarded some palace flowers and embroidered handkerchiefs customized by the Great Xiao Palace, and gave them to the female relatives of Ruoye's family, and also gave a gold collar to Ruoye's younger brother.
She really couldn't imagine that among the people who participated in the hunt for Hong Xing, Fang Lingdi, and Du Niangzi this time, there would be Ruoye.
"Zhi'er, this person, I have also seen it, at the end of last month, when Emperor Ske the Great of the Ilan Empire found me late at night, he also carried this person with him." Prince Xuan suddenly walked to Xiao Qiongzhi's desk, pointed at Ruoye, and said to Xiao Qiongzhi very seriously.
Xiao Qiongzhi nodded, and said softly: "Thank you for reminding, I also know this person, his name is Ruoye, and he used to take him with him." ”
"However, when I came to the Smoke and Rain Pavilion last time to find me, and later when I lived in the Prince's Mansion, I didn't have Ruoye and the person you identified just now who looked a little similar to Sk, with him."
Prince Xuan shook his head with a smile and said, "I heard that Scott came to Daxiao with the Daxiao VIP token this time as a VIP, and he should be able to carry no more than three hundred followers by his side." ”
"And when he went to the Yanyu Pavilion to look for you, the entourage he brought with him was only twenty people, and most of them should have been left, and in the post house where the guests of the countries with diplomatic relations were stayed, you didn't see Ruoye and another person, it's normal."
"Maybe so." Xiao Qiongzhi said noncommittally.
Ruoye used to be the person who Que often brought with him, and Silken obviously brought Ruoye over this time, but he never brought it with him, where can it be considered normal, in fact, it is very abnormal.
However, Xiao Qiongzhi did not intend to tell Prince Xuan what he thought in his heart, after all, Prince Xuan was an ambitious man who wanted to dominate the world, and if Da Xiao and Scott were at odds, it would be beneficial and harmless for him.
In addition, when he went back to warn Prince Xuan late at night, he swore to Prince Xuan that he would win Xiao Qiongzhi's ambition, which must have angered Prince Xuan.
If Prince Xuan knew that Ruoye was the deputy chief of the guard beside Ske, Prince Xuan would probably take the opportunity to fight back against Ske.
Soon, Shi Qian took Ske to the lobby of the Criminal Department.
Along with them, there was also Xiao Zhengzhen.
Xiao Qiongzhi hurriedly greeted Xiao Zhengzhen and Ske, and told them the reason why he appeared in the Criminal Department today, and the reason why Shi Qian called Ske, and gave up his seat to Xiao Zhengzhen to sit.
"Dad, you came just in time this time, this case should be tried by you and Lord Wang." Xiao Qiongzhi then stood up and said.
The Criminal Department has always been one of the imperial court institutions controlled by Xiao Zhengzhen behind his back, and Wang Zhengrong must obey him.
Xiao Zhengzhen is also the elder of Ske, he asked Ske for questioning this case, and he is better than Xiao Qiongzhi, and he is responsible for trying this case with Wang Zhengrong, which is more suitable than Xiao Qiongzhi.
"Okay." Xiao Zhengzhen nodded cautiously.
Xiao Qiongzhi's suggestion was right in his arms.
When Shi Qian returned to the Prince's Mansion to find Si, Si happened to be playing chess with Xiao Zhengzhen, so Xiao Zhengzhen naturally knew the reason why Shi Qian was looking for Si.
He immediately thought that the Yilan Empire had just established diplomatic relations with Da Xiao, and Si was not only the emperor of the Yilan Empire, but also Xiao Qiongzhi's good friend and suitor, and it would not be convenient for Xiao Qiongzhi and Wang Zhengrong to handle this case together.
And he is different, Wang Zhengrong is his subordinate, and he is the elder of Ske, if he and Wang Zhengrong deal with it, it is more appropriate.
That's why he came with Ske.
He pointed to the two corpses on the ground and asked Sk softly: "Sk, take a closer look, do you know these two people?" "Read the latest chapter of "Nongmen Golden Branch Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
