Chapter 359: Touching the Truth
"Oh, that's good." Zhao Ming can be regarded as relieved now, Su Jingye looked funny, if Zheng Cheng really wanted to hate others, how could he give up because he didn't see each other.
"Then, is it the matter of Jiaotai in the Tiger Run Theater Class that he recommended, has it also been explained?" Su Jingye glanced at him, and he was not surprised at first glance
Zhao Ming quietly waved his hand at the bottom, wanting to tell Su Jingye not to say it so clearly at this time, even if he wanted to confide in the two of them, it was best not to choose the situation in his own presence.
But Su Jingye spoke quickly, and before Zhao Ming could hint, he had already ended all the conversations.
"Well, I said, everything that is not there, even His Majesty's initial order to tell everyone to be in peace and spend this Mid-Autumn Festival in peace is also very detailed."
Jin Shan didn't notice Zhao Ming's small movements underneath, and only remembered the appearance of Zheng Cheng's well-behaved answer, which made him want to laugh.
Although Su Jingye didn't witness it with his own eyes, he could probably guess what the situation was from Jin Shan's words. Even if Zheng Cheng has Li Wensong's support behind him, his nature is relatively timid.
Especially since this matter also involved the assassination of His Majesty the Emperor, of course she didn't want to have anything to do with this matter, so she could only honestly explain to Jin Shan, and she could also get rid of her suspicion.
"Master Zheng has been living in the capital since his ancestors, and has never left half a step, although he took the initiative to recommend it this time, but according to his usual habits, he doesn't like to watch any singing and storytelling."
Zhao Ming was still nervous, Shi Zhengzhi threw away the handkerchief in his hand, and continued with what Jin Shan had just said, Jin Shan was free, so he wrote down what he wanted to write down in the book.
"And the Tiger Run Troupe has always performed only in other places, and this is the first time to return to the capital, even if Master Zheng has long colluded with the people in these teams, and has a plan, he doesn't have this opportunity."
"In this way, it can be regarded as being able to clear the suspicion of Lord Zheng." Zheng Cheng, as a secretary of the ministry, is no easier than the burden on several other scholars, but whenever he makes any move, there are countless people staring at him up and down, and it is no wonder that he finally developed such a timid and fearful character.
Moreover, Zheng Cheng managed the ministry, but the people above may not be able to hand it over to him with complete confidence, and someone must have been sent to watch behind his back.
And Li Wensong, as the secretary of the Ministry of War, although Su Yutian also wants to send someone to monitor him from time to time, there is no shortage of trackers around Li Wensong who are good at finding out news, and it doesn't take much effort to solve all the people sent by Su Yutian.
It can be said that the situation of Zheng Cheng and Li Wensong is completely opposite. There is no benefit in solving Zheng Cheng, on the contrary, with his convenience, maybe he can still listen to some information about Li Wensong.
"That's right, why didn't Xia Guan think of this, sure enough, there are still a few adults and the prince who are thoughtful." Zhao Ming can be regarded as completely relieved now, and even his tight back has straightened up a lot at the moment.
"Lord Zhao has won the award, and the official will have something to trouble Lord Zhao for help in a while." Jin Shan looked at Zhao Ming with disgust, and then closed the booklet in his hand.
"Lord Kim, please speak." Hearing this, the two eyebrows on Zhao Ming's forehead suddenly collapsed together. And Su Jing, who was next to him, was still in a leisurely mood when he arrived, and gathered around Jin Shan to see what was in the booklet.
"Well, that assassin didn't want to speak, and he hasn't woken up from the torture yet, so we'll have to ask the others first." Jin Shan continued to speak, and threw back the handkerchief that Shi Zhengzhi had just thrown in his hand.
"But unfortunately, these people have two cases on their backs, so let's come one by one, let's solve the simple one first, and rule out the relationship between these people before proceeding to the next step."
"It is said that Lord Zhao has almost investigated the case with the help of the prince, and he is about to finalize the murderer, so he doesn't need to trouble much if he wants to come to the official, maybe he can solve it today."
"Lord Jin has won the award, and it's all thanks to the help of the prince." Zhao Ming threw his hand at the two people in front of him.
Su Jingye looked at Jin Shan's gaze and waved his hand very modestly, but his gaze was only on the big booklet in Su Jingye's arms.
"Lord Wang, be careful, don't crumple it, the handwriting that was just written on it hasn't dried yet."
Su Jingye was speechless for a while, and Zhao Ming tilted his head a little embarrassed. "It's okay to help with this, it's just that the lower official has a hidden disease, and he can't see blood."
Hearing this, several people in the field were stunned.
What kind of hidden disease is this? Jin Shan and Shi Zhengzhi both looked incredulous, but Su Jingye reacted quickly and waved his hand, telling them not to be so surprised.
Shi Zhengzhi was the first to come back and explained: "Lord Zhao doesn't need to be nervous, the main people in your case have not been punished, and there should be no bloodstains." ”
"When Lord Shi came out, it was...... What do you mean? What Zhao Ming was referring to was when they first met, Shi Zhengzhi's constant wiping of his hands, and the handkerchief with red marks.
Shi Zhengzhi raised his eyebrows, stretched the handkerchief in his hand forward, and saw Zhao Ming's affirmative nod, before he smiled. "Ah, that, it's just that the waiting time in the morning is a little boring, Lord Jin is clamoring to eat watermelon, we only cut a few pieces, and the prince and Zhao Dake want to taste it together."
"That's not Lord Shi, you left in a hurry in the morning, you had an awkward quarrel with your wife, you didn't eat, but there is only watermelon here, did you propose it, why is it on my head now?"
Hearing that Shi Zhengzhi was so brazen to put his name on his head, Jin Shan definitely couldn't swallow this breath and immediately refuted. Shi Zhengzhi also sneered in disgust.
"Why, haven't you used it, Lord Jin?"
"Hmph." Jin Shan snorted from his nose, "Eat." ”
In the past, when I was in the court, I had never heard of the peculiar personalities of Jin Shan and Shi Zhengzhi, and they had any friends, but now it seems that these two strange people have a good relationship together.
Zhao Ming looked at it with a sigh, but Su Jingye was not surprised and returned the booklet. "Eating watermelon in such a cold morning, you two are not afraid of diarrhea."
"This king and Lord Zhao, you don't have to worry, you have already had breakfast before you come, let's call the prisoner out and ask first, don't have a seizure in your stomach for a while, you two are delaying time again."
"Absolutely not, what haven't you eaten when Xia Guan was practicing martial arts?" After that, Jin Shan led Su Jingye and Zhao Ming to the dungeon.
It's not that I'm too lazy to ask someone to bring them up one by one, it's just that there is a mess in this sound room, and there is really no place. Yesterday, Shi Zhengzhi agreed with him to let the people from the Criminal Department be responsible for cleaning, I'm afraid Jinshan has forgotten about this stubble.
Going out of the courtyard of the interrogation room, I walked past the back of the small slope behind the Imperial Tower. There is a staircase made of white stone on the way down, and you will come to the entrance of the dungeon of the Imperial Tower.
Seeing such important figures arriving at the same time in the dungeon, the panicked subordinates guarding the dungeon almost threw the key on the ground, and hurriedly rushed over to open the door with trembling hands.
After waiting for the door to open, Su Jingye and everyone approached one after another, only to find that when they entered the door of the dungeon, a coolness rose behind them. It's cold and damp here, and it's like two worlds from the outside.
The distance of only a few dozen steps was changed to this dungeon, and it was inexplicable to walk up. On the back wall of each cell, there is a small, high window that opens to ventilate.
Every two or three steps, you can see a little sunlight shining in the side window. This place is obviously under the dirt slope, but there is still light coming in, and this method of construction is really unique.
After walking for a while, Jin Shan, who was leading the way in the front, suddenly stopped and stopped, Su Jingye followed everyone's line of sight, and saw a man and a woman, two people in ragged clothes, but their expressions were as calm as water, leaning against each other and leaning against the corner.
This scene, I am afraid that anyone who is not blind can see that the two of them are a couple. The man inside is thicker, and his facial features are a little fierce.
When he saw these people coming at the door of the cell, he subconsciously protected the woman next to him behind him, and he didn't restrain until the woman reached out and patted his arm gently.
"These two adults have already met yesterday, and as for Lord Wang and Lord Zhao, Brother Li and I have also met in the dark." The woman smiled at the man, reassured him and told him to back off, and then bowed respectfully to the few people at the door.
"The folk girl knows that it is natural for a person to kill to pay for her life, so no matter what the adults ask us today, the folk girl will answer truthfully."
"Are you Cheng Sifan?" Su Jingye asked, and after seeing the other side nodding, he spoke in confusion and puzzlement, "When have you two met this king, why don't you have the slightest impression of this king?" ”
"Back to the prince's words, when the prince and Lord Zhao went to the Yang family to pay their respects a few days ago, the folk girl and Brother Li pretended to be the food delivery person, and secretly met in the small alley next to the Yang family's compound."
Cheng Sifan knelt on the ground, and Lidon was worried that his knees would be cold, so he forcibly tried to drag people up, but she refused. Cheng Sifan was indifferent, but he didn't ask Lidden to kneel down with him.
It is estimated that she also knows that she and Lidden cannot live, and it is useless to beg for mercy at this time, it is better to let Lidden maintain his last bit of self-esteem.
"The name of the prince and Lord Zhao is so loud, as long as you ask, there is no one who doesn't know it."
