Rong Heng glanced at the Book of Rites, and turned his eyes full of mockery.

The eldest son of the Ministry of Rites, a good man.

In order to cover up this secret, the mansion gave him the main house where he was married, and added a few more concubine rooms.

However, in those wives and concubines' houses, he only symbolically passed every month.

Twenty of the thirty days in a month are spent in his own study.

Others only think that he is working hard.

But I don't know that the dirty things he did in the study!

Inside and outside the house, I don't know how many handsome little people have been collected, and in the back garden of the house, I don't know how many dead souls and dry bones have been buried.

When I first learned this secret, I was still investigating the case of the eldest princess in Sanhe Town.

The fifth prince used Miss Dou Si to constantly get the progress of the case from him, and constantly gave him some so-called guidance.

He made a plan and handed over the scandal of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites to the fifth prince.

Unexpectedly, he actually chose today's day.

What a vision.

Xu Boqin ate soft rice, abandoned his original partner and chose Gao Zhi to turn his face and not recognize people.

The eldest son of the Ministry of Rites is a good man, and he has caused countless lives.

Together, this is almost enough for the Ministry of Rites to drink a pot.

Now, Rong Heng knew why the five princes were so concerned about Xu Boqin and Fuyun's affairs.

Throwing bricks and stones.

It seems much more natural to invite people from the criminal department without leaving a trace than to invite people from the criminal department when they find a dead person.

Taking a deep breath, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu turned his head and gave an order to the housekeeper, and then said to the Ministry of Punishment Shangshu: "Impossible, how can there be corpses in the house, or a lot of corpses, it's just nonsense!" ”

After the words fell, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu put his hands behind his back and said with a cold face: "I don't know who the official has offended today, first at the wedding of the little girl, he wantonly slandered his husband, and now, he has slandered the head of the official, and the official will never stop there." ”

The little servant of the fifth prince swallowed his saliva and said in his throat: "The slave is not lying, whether there is a corpse or not, everyone will know when they go over and see." ”

Shangshu Tie of the Ministry of Rites blushed, "Ridiculous! This official mansion, how can you be allowed to hang out, not to mention whether there is really one, you are a little girl, how to get into the back garden of this official mansion. ”

The little guy said: "The slave and a maid named Caihe in your mansion are childhood sweethearts, and when they go to the back garden, they are also invited by her!" Adults can't, just ask. ”

Picking lotus?

Where does the Ministry of Rites remember the name of the maid in the house.

What's more, what this little guy said is reasonable, and he is obviously not weak-hearted.

The fifth prince snorted coldly, "What? There is a corpse in your mansion, and Lord Shangshu is not in a hurry to investigate the case, but is going to interrogate the king's people? I don't know when this king has become an object of bullying in your eyes! ”

As soon as he said this, there was another uproar.

The Ministry of Rites has never put the Nine Emperor Prince Rong Heng in his eyes, and there are many people in the officialdom who know it.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Rong Heng.

Rong Heng looked calm, ignoring all kinds of eyes.

He ignored it, but Su Qing couldn't ignore it, listening and watching, he only felt heartbroken.

How could her man be bullied like this!

Silently took out the small black book in his heart, Su Qing added the name of the book of the Ministry of Rites to black and bold again, and drew an emphasis.

With an iron-faced and selfless face, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

"The rules of the Criminal Department are that if someone reports a case, the Criminal Department will take over the case, and when the case is accepted, it must be investigated in detail according to the description of the informant."

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu was annoyed, and he frowned coldly, "Are you going to search my house?" ”

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department said calmly: "No, it's just a search of your back garden." ”

"I am an official of the imperial court, and I need special approval from His Majesty to search my house, if not, I can't help it, forgive me." The Ministry of Rites Shangshu's face was horizontal, and he looked resolute and refused.

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department suddenly hesitated.

According to the rules, he really can't search the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites without authorization.

Just as he was about to speak, the fifth prince took a step forward and said, "What? This king and the eldest prince and the ninth prince asked the criminal department to investigate the case, but they can't find it? ”

This is too imposing.

Three princes!

Even if Rong Heng, the prince, has a low degree of existence, there are nine princesses!

100,000 Pingyang troops are there!

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu's face was dark, and his breath was condensed.

"The lower official asked himself, he has never offended the Fifth Highness, I don't know why the Fifth Highness must embarrass the lower official!"

The fifth prince snorted, "Embarrassed? This king has embarrassed you, it is you who have embarrassed the Ministry of Punishment. ”

"There is a death in the house, and I won't let you check it, isn't this a bit like there are no silver taels here!" The henchmen of the five highnesses are humane.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu glared at the man fiercely with a dark face.

Even if he offended the three princes in one breath today, he would never let the people from the Criminal Department go to the back garden.

Anyway, he is the party of Zhenguo Gong, and what he supports is the four princes.

These princes, even if he are not offended, will not help him much.

With a ruthless heart, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu said: "I'm sorry, Xia Guan is not only an official of the court, but also a husband and father, and the lord of a mansion. ”

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department said: "Since this is the case, then the official will take Lord Xu and the people away first, and as for the murder, the official will apply to His Majesty." ”

After speaking, Shang Shuyi of the Criminal Department raised his hand.

Immediately, a government official stepped forward to arrest Xu Boqin and the people.

The dozen or so people were very cooperative, and they didn't need to be arrested.

Xu Boqin looked at the Ministry of Rites, "Father-in-law, today is ......"

The Rite Department Shangshu took a deep breath and sighed weakly.

He can protect the house and the back garden, but there is no reason to stop the people from the Criminal Department from taking Xu Boqin away.

Slowly closing his eyes, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu said: "You are sitting upright, and you are an official of the imperial court, just go and cooperate." ”

With these words, Xu Boqin felt a little more down-to-earth.

As soon as they were taken away, the criminal department Shangshu turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!"

If he couldn't immediately check the back garden of the Ministry of Rites' Shangshu's house, as long as he gave the Ministry of Rites a chance to breathe, he would definitely dispose of those corpses in a blink of an eye.

It is not easy to find such a good opportunity to bring down the Ministry of Rites.

How could the five princes be willing to do this today!

"A few days ago, when investigating the secret road of Miao Jiang, my father handed over the case to the ninth brother to be responsible, in order to assist the ninth brother in investigating the case, the criminal department Shangshu worked tirelessly, and the ninth brother also owed the criminal department a favor."

After a pause, the fifth prince smiled and said: "It's better to be like this, the people from the Criminal Department are on standby here, and they will bother the ninth brother to enter the palace, so it is not considered to delay the case, after all, it involves human life, and it is not a child's play." ”

That's what I said.

Is it an upright errand for His Highness the Nine?

Everyone's eyes took a look at the lively posture and fell towards Rong Heng.

"His Royal Highness Fifth is serious, the matter of investigating the secret passage of Miaojiang is His Majesty's will, let the ministers and His Highness the Ninth cooperate to handle it, and there is no such thing as the ministers in front of the saddle and behind the horses."

The criminal department Shangshu immediately took a stand.

"As for entering the palace to apply for royal approval from His Majesty, this is also within the scope of the responsibilities of the Criminal Department, and His Royal Highness the Ninth has no responsibility or obligation to make a trip for the Criminal Department."
