Chapter 694: Jade Pendant
Watching them play mahjong, the interest was high, and the prisoners opposite the door were lying on the door and watching, they were angry.
Shaoqing of Dali Temple stared at the Hou Shizi of Beining with his eyes, which simply brought the atmosphere in the prison!
The Hou Shizi of Beining also looked at him, but their attention was more on Xie Jingchen behind Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
Do you want to visit the prison so often?
At his rate, why do you have to come three times a day?
"Open the cell," the Shaoqing of Dali Temple ordered.
The jailer opened the cell.
Well.
It was the cell where Su Jin was.
Xing'er ran to the door, stuck her head out and said, "Uncle, are you here to deliver dinner?" ”
Looks like it's a bit early for dinner.
However, after my uncle finished delivering the meal, I would go back home for dinner later.
Xie Jingchen's face was black.
Su Jin sat still and didn't move, Xie Jingchen raised his forehead and said, "I'm back home." ”
Su Jin, "....... ”
"So fast?" Su Jin was surprised.
"Do you want to stay in the Dali Temple prison for two more days?" Xie Jingchen said with a smile.
“……。”
She didn't mean that!
She just thought that she had only been in the Dali Temple prison for two hours and returned home, which was a bit unexpected.
But since Xie Jingchen came to pick her up, Su Jin naturally wanted to leave.
Su Jin stepped out of the cell.
The jailer wanted to open the key to their cell for the king of Nan'an County, and Shaoqing of Dali Temple said, "They will continue to be locked up for two days." ”
Hou Shizi of Beining stood up and protested, "Didn't Dali Siqing say when the sister-in-law will leave, when will we leave?" ”
"Aren't you having a good time?" Dali Temple Shaoqing Road.
"We're having fun in the midst of suffering," Hou Shizi of Beining shouted.
Shaoqing of Dali Temple didn't believe it at all.
But he didn't really keep them locked up.
He knows in his heart what his cousin is, not to mention that they are also the king of Nan'an County who are locked up together, and they are not easy to mess with.
He kept them in prison for three days, and when he released them, he was supposed to lie in bed for three days.
Shaoqing of Dali Temple turned around and left.
The jailer hurriedly opened the lock.
The king of Nan'an County caught up with Xie Jingchen and said, "What's the matter, why did you let your sister-in-law go so quickly?" ”
"The old lady of Chongguo is in prison," Xie Jingchen said.
"What?"
The kings of Nan'an looked at each other in disbelief.
Here's the thing-
Two hours ago, after Xie Jingchen sent Su Jin to the cell, he returned to the Zhenbei Palace.
He went directly to the prince.
Su Jin was imprisoned, and he was not at ease.
The Dali Temple Prison is not stricter than the Criminal Department Prison, and even Yong Chengbo was killed under the strict guard of the Criminal Department, and the longer Su Jin stayed in the Dali Temple Prison, the more dangerous it became.
When he entered the study, it happened that the secretary of the criminal department was also there.
The prince handed the jade pendant to the Ministry of Punishment Shangshu to look at it.
When it comes to investigating cases, Shangshu of the Natural Criminal Department is better at writing, and Yu Pei is the only evidence they have at present.
These days, I was busy with the old lady's funeral, so I only asked my subordinates to check this jade pendant, but they found nothing.
The prince wanted to hear the opinion of the criminal department.
Xie Jingchen glanced at the jade pendant, and the things he couldn't understand before were instantly transparent.
Duchess Chongguo wants to get rid of Chonglao Guogong because of this jade pendant!
This jade pendant has been missing with the old lady for more than 30 years, and there are definitely not many people who recognize it, just take the Zhenbei Wangfu as an example, the people who have served in the mansion for more than 30 years can count it on both hands.
Those who can stay and serve for more than 30 years are either confidants or marginal figures, and they can live so long without participating in the fight.
Chong Lao Guogong may be one of the few people who recognize this jade pendant.
They already suspected that the old lady Chongguo was related to the case of the fake old lady Li Dai Taozhuang, and it was very likely that they would go back to the old lady Chongguo to identify it, and at that time, the old lady of Chongguo would not only be ruined, but even have to pay the price of her life.
Under such circumstances, she has every reason to kill the old man.
Chongguo Gong didn't want Su Jin to save Chong Lao Guogong, so he kicked the footstool, stuck her skirt, and knocked over the poisonous blood.
It's just that Chongguo Gong never dreamed that the more he wanted to keep the old lady Chongguo, the faster she would be injured.
Xie Jingchen's speculation, the criminal department Shangshu felt reasonable.
Then they went to the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion together.
Coincidentally, I met someone from the Chongguo Mansion again.
It's just that yesterday it was the Duke of Chongguo, and today it is the Duchess of Chongguo.
Moreover, the attitude of the Duchess of Chongguo is much worse than that of the Duke of Chongguo, and there is a big posture of starting a fight if she disagrees.
After all, the reason why the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion rejected Chongguo Gong yesterday was that Su Jin wanted to detoxify Chonglao Guogong, and now Su Jin himself is in prison, and it is difficult to protect himself.
Once she is in prison, the case is not closed, and there is no emperor's will, so she is not allowed to get out of prison.
If the emperor really ordered Su Jin to go out of the prison of Dali Temple to treat Chongguo Gong, does he still care whether it is in the Dongxiang Hou Mansion or the Chongguo Mansion?
This person, she must take it today!
Seeing the book of the criminal department, the Duchess of Chongguo also asked the secretary of the criminal department to give him a comment, and sued the Hou of Dongxiang for not returning his father, and he was suspicious.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department perfunctory a few words to her, saying that she came to Dongxiang Houfu for important matters, and she would help her evaluate when the matter was over.
After entering the mansion, they went directly to Chonglao Guogong.
At first, Chong Lao Guogong didn't react when he saw the jade pendant, but when he turned over the jade pendant and saw the carved words, he blinked.
This jade pendant is indeed the old lady of Chongguo.
Su Chong hugged Chong Lao Guogong into a wheelchair and pushed him out of the Dongxiang Hou Mansion.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like you want to send Chonglao Guogong back to Chongguo's mansion.
Duchess Chongguo thought that the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion was cowardly, but also, the father who occupied the family did not return, and it was unreasonable to say that it was broken.
Duchess Chongguo didn't let Su Chong send it, Su Chong frowned, "Isn't it okay for me to send my grandson to my grandfather?" ”
Similarly, the Duchess of Chongguo could not refuse.
In this way, everyone went to the Chongguo Mansion.
Su Chong and Dongxiang Hou went to the Chongguo Mansion, and the Criminal Department Shangshu went with the prince and Xie Jingchen, and the Duchess Chongguo felt that something was not quite right.
The old lady of Zhenbei Wangfu was only buried today, and there should be a lot of things in the house, so he shouldn't have such leisure and leisure.
Duchess Chongguo said vigilantly, "The house is busy, so please go back first." ”
"It's not a moment and a half," the prince said indifferently.
Su Chong pushed Chonglao Guogong to see Mrs. Chonglao.
Mrs. Chong was lying on the sickbed, one eye was covered with gauze, and she looked haggard, more than ten years older than the above.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department showed the jade pendant to the old lady of Chongguo, "Do you remember this jade pendant?" ”
Almost the moment she saw the jade pendant, the old lady of Chongguo turned white.
She looked flustered, but quickly regained her composure.
Zhenbei Wangfu found the body of the real old lady in the Big Buddha Temple, and also found this jade pendant that did not belong to her.
I can't hide it.
If the old lady of Zhenguo hadn't heard about it, she wouldn't have killed the old man.
