Fu Zhixing and Yan Hagi didn't expect that Lord Chen would use Yu Jiaomei, who didn't know where to go, to make an article; At this time, Fu Zhixing was in the palace, playing with the saint. When Fu Zhixing was about to be killed, the saint suddenly asked, "How is the investigation of the assassination case of Youcheng?" ”

"The case is under investigation in Dali Temple, and the minister is in the Metropolitan Procuratorate." Fu Zhixing pressed the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard.

Seeing that he couldn't distract him, the saint coughed lightly and said, "You are the imperial historian, and you have the responsibility of supervision, and when you should ask, you still have to ask." ”

"Obey." Fu Zhixing replied solemnly.

The saint thought for a long time before he settled.

Fu Zhixing pinched a chess piece, and without thinking about it, he fell, "Your Majesty, it's your turn." ”

A quarter of an hour later, the game was over, no surprise Sheng Shang lost, Sheng Shang didn't mind at all, now there are not many people who dare to win his chess, and it is not interesting to change the method to let him win.

It was not early, and Fu Zhixing withdrew from the palace.

The next day, Fu Zhixing performed his duties and went to Zhang Weide to ask, "How is the investigation of the case of Youcheng's assassination?" ”

Zhang Weide asked in surprise: "Why do you care about this case?" ”

"Your Majesty asked yesterday." Fu Zhixing said indifferently.

"Nothing." Zhang Weide was also helpless. The only fortunate thing is that there are no more similar assassinations, and the pressure on Dali Temple is not so great.

"A look at him and his family may reveal something." Fu Zhixing reminded him.

"Someone has been arranged to investigate." Zhang Weide scratched his head, "I hope to find out quickly and close the case." ”

I don't know if I don't check, but after a thorough investigation, I know that this Zhongshu Youcheng, who looks like a righteous man and a gentleman in the court, is really a romantic embryo. raised three outer rooms, and also had a close relationship with a Qinglou courtesan, and once wrote a few very beautiful words for this courtesan.

The guests of this courtesan are not only the right man of the Chinese book, but also several, and one of them is a person from the rivers and lakes, it is said that this good man of the rivers and lakes once competed with a scholar and was jealous, and almost cut off the scholar's head with a knife, and he is a person with a very hot personality. Will he have a conflict with Zhongshu Youcheng over the song prostitute and assassinate Zhongshu Youcheng?

"Disrespectful to the old." Yan Hagi listened to the words of the market collected by Honeysuckle, and pouted in disgust. This Zhongshu Youcheng, who died in a name, is quite old, almost sixty years old, his grandchildren are about to marry, and he also raised a sixteen or seventeen-year-old outer room, which is really not a pity to die.

In addition to being romantic, this Zhongshu right-hand man has no other vices, but his family relies on his power in his hometown, preying on the common people and causing trouble to his neighbors, causing many wives to be separated. His younger brother forcibly married a festival woman as a concubine, his nephew forced people to death for an antique, and his niece snatched jewelry and pushed people downstairs to maim them.

Will these enemies hire murderers?

When the evidence was presented, Zhang Weide looked at it roughly and mocked: "There are really a lot of sins made by his family." ”

This case has not been completely closed, Taichang Temple Shaoqing Chen Yu went up to the fold to avenge the saint, asking the holy abbot justice, "The niece of the minister came all the way to Beijing to join Weichen, Fu Zhixing saw the lust and took her into the house, and now I don't know whether she is alive or dead, and Weichen implores His Majesty to uphold justice for the minister." ”

Fu Zhixing will see the color?

Even if Chen Yuze's niece looks like a fairy, with Fu Zhixing's appearance and family background, does he need to forcibly kidnap people into the mansion? He can't accept what kind of concubine he wants, he wants to accept a concubine, but he is afraid that the Anguo Mansion will not be able to live, and there will be many women rushing to send it to the door.

"Master Chen, you're afraid that you're not awake from a hangover, right?" Chen Yuze's opponent was sarcastic.

Fu Zhixing's face was as usual: "Lord Chen dares to come to face the saint to say this, I think there is solid evidence, please show it to Your Majesty and all the adults." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has a witness, and he is waiting outside the palace gate now." Chen Yu has made full preparations in order to bring down Fu Zhixing, and has been arranging for the past few days.

The saint said indifferently: "Xuan." ”

His own chamberlain trotted to the outside of the palace gate to bring in the witness.

There are three witnesses, two middle-aged men and an old woman, when they entered the hall, perhaps panicked and scared, the old woman tripped over the threshold, but fortunately, a man quickly helped her and didn't let her fall into the hall.

"The grass people knock to see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." The three of them threw themselves to the ground, and their voices trembled.

"Where is Dali Temple?" The saint asked.

"The minister is here." Zhang Weide is on the list.

"Interrogate them well, and if you dare to commit perjury, you will be decided." Sheng Shang said coldly.

Hearing this, I knew that the saint was on Fu Zhixing's side.

"Obey." Zhang Weide interrogated the three witnesses in front of all the courtiers, "What is the surname, where is the name?" ”

The three of them are all Yanjing people, hawkers who set up stalls on Long Street.

"And you answered at the same time, where did you see that day?"

"On June 27, I saw someone robbing a woman on Chimelong Street." The three of them said the same answer in unison.

The corners of Chen Yuze's lips rose slightly, he had already let them unify their voices. He checked that Fu Zhixing returned to Yandu on June 24.

Zhang Weide continued to ask: "Is it morning or afternoon at the same time?" ”

"Morning."

"Afternoon."

The old woman's answer was different from that of the two middle-aged men, she realized that she was wrong, and quickly changed her words, "It's morning, it's morning." ”

It's just that if it's wrong, it's wrong, even if you change your words in time, it's useless, and the saints and the ministers have heard it. Zhang Weide then asked: "What time is the morning at the same time?" ”

"At the beginning of the day."

"It's the right time."

A man replied differently, and he also changed his words, "Si Shi Zheng." ”

"Did the man who robbed the woman ride a horse or sit in a sedan chair?" Zhang Weide continued to ask.

"Sitting."

The answer for all three was the same.

Zhang Weide asked many detailed questions, and the three of them sometimes answered the same and sometimes different, which is enough to explain the problem. Chen Yu thought that the arrangement was very proper, and he confidently wanted to defeat Fu Zhixing, but now that Zhang Weide asked him like this, he found that there were many mistakes and omissions.

"Chen Yuze, what else do you have to say?" The saint asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is concerned about the safety of his niece, so he will listen to the untruths of these people, thinking that Fu Shizi has kidnapped the niece of the minister, and ask the saint to learn from it." Chen Yu shirked his responsibilities and wanted to get out.

"Zhang Qing, put these three people in the prison of Dali Temple, and interrogate them strictly to see who wants to slander my minister." The saint's gaze swept over the three people and fell on Chen Yuze, "Chen Yuze is suspended pending investigation." ”

King Lu hesitated for a moment, and did not come forward to intercede for Chen Yuze, and the staff and Chen Yu conspired with this matter, he did not agree, but Chen Yu was too eager to make meritorious contributions, and he also had a fluke, and now he can't see it.

"Something to start, nothing to retreat." The chamberlain raised his voice.

The great court meeting of this day is over, and the civil and military officials send His Majesty away.
