Chapter 138: It's time to close the case
In the strict investigation ordered by the Emperor of Chu and the cooperation of all ministries, this turmoil of poisoning and kidnapping people did not last long.
Soon, the "murderer" appeared.
When he received the news, Zhao Chen was tilting his face and letting Meng Yong give him medicine, and the two cuts on his face were about to disappear at this time.
"Where did you find it?" Zhao Chen asked casually.
Left and right is a substitute ghost who was pushed out by a black hand, and it is actually worthless to her.
However, after Han Feng was stunned, he said something that made her eyelids jump-
β¦β¦β¦
When Zhao Chen arrived, the people from the Criminal Department, Shuntian Mansion, and Dali Temple were already surrounded inside and outside, and the streets and alleys were full of people who gathered to watch the excitement.
The appearance of such a group of Ouchi pro-soldiers wearing armor and swords immediately attracted countless attention.
So before Zhao Chen got closer, someone greeted him from the inside.
"Aren't your injuries still healed? Why did you get here? Zhao Hanqing was dressed in a dark red official uniform, there seemed to be some blame between her bright eyebrows, her eyes fell on her hanging arm, and then turned away.
Zhao Chen smiled: "Cousin, since this is the person who kidnapped me, and now that it has been discovered, I can't come and see it?" β
Without waiting for Zhao Hanqing to say anything, she limped past the other party and walked in.
Familiar gambling tables are all over the lobby, but there is no bustle and noise in the past, and the officers and soldiers are on the side, searching for something everywhere.
"I've seen Prince Wu." Walking all the way to the front of the three courtyards in the back, Zhao Chen stopped and waved away the salute people.
Looking at Zuo Yinan, who was expressionless outside the courtyard, she leaned in and asked softly, "Where is the teacher?" Why didn't you stay along? β
Zuo Yinan glanced at her coldly, "Those people are asking questions inside, Chen Niang asked me to wait for you here." β
Zhao Chen thought about taking him into the distance, and then asked, "What's going on?" β
"Not long after the plate was opened this morning, there was a commotion in the backyard, and a person who had been staying here for three days died inexplicably in the room, and before Chen Niang could deal with it, someone secretly reported to the official..."
Zuo Yinan frowned slightly, "The official of the Criminal Department came first, sealed the dead man's Chu Yuyuan, and quickly searched for a confession letter, and the dead man himself admitted that he was the one who kidnapped youββ"
Zhao Chen's eyes moved as he listened.
The person who kidnapped her had already been buried by her, and this ghost for the dead was just out to calm the turmoil...
But the other party died in the Yongding gambling house, which is a little intriguing.
Previously, in order to test Taipingwei, she had deliberately exposed Chen Siyan to Lao Feng and them, but the other party had not made any moves, so that she thought that her trick was in vain-
"You stay here, I'll go in and have a look." Zhao Chen said and stepped into the backyard.
β¦β¦β¦
"The person died for nearly two days before it was discovered, and Chen Dongjia now wants to get rid of it without knowing anything?"
"Lord Ma is going to rely on the little girl for this?" Chen Siyan sneered, "The regulars in the workshop know that the rooms in the courtyard are not greeted by guests, and no one will bother. β
Her voice softened suddenly, "These doorways, Lord Ma should know, right?" β
Without waiting for this Master Ma to speak, she continued: "Three days ago, this person contracted Chu Yuyuan by himself, and lost tens of thousands of taels of silver in one night, so he angrily sent away all the people who were waiting, and asked people not to disturb him. β
"His entourage has been guarding the gate of that courtyard, you can ask if anyone in the workshop has disturbed you closely?" She snorted coldly, "Now that he is dead in my place, it has affected my business, and I don't know who to go to!" β
Zhao Chen touched his nose when he listened, and without waiting for anything to be said in the house, he limped and pushed the door and walked in.
"Xiaguan has seen Prince Wu." Everyone saluted.
Zhao Chen waved his hand and smiled flatteringly at Chen Siyan, who was staring at her coldly, before he sat down and asked, "What have you found out?" Who died? β
Several people looked at each other, but Jiang He stepped forward and said: "Prince Huiwu, it was Qian Xixian, the garrison of Jizhou, who died, and he entered Beijing with the generals of Jizhou to go to the Lin family banquet. β
"The person died the night before yesterday, and the poison he took was the same one that poisoned General Gao, and a confession letter was also found in the house... said that he wanted to rob you to escape along the road, but you escaped, he sneaked back, and he committed suicide by taking poison because he was uneasy..."
Zhao Chen listened quietly and asked for a moment: "Why did he kill Gao Lian?" β
"There is a personal grudge in the army, and he has never had a chance to get close, so he took advantage of this banquet to make a move." Jiang He also gestured, "The body is still placed in Chu Yuyuan, you can go and identify it." β
Zhao Chen nodded, glanced at Chen Siyan soothingly, and then got up and walked to Chu Yuyuan.
There was a bamboo frame in the middle of the official errand, and several generals in armor stood aside with bad faces.
Zhao Chen glanced at it from afar.
The man lying on the bamboo frame, in his forties, had a purple face and no external injuries...
The generals standing on the side were all from the Jizhou family who came to the banquet, and they came here to identify the corpses.
"Look, is this the person?" Jiang Hetong asked lightly beside him.
"The figure looks like it, but the thief's face is not seen by the king, and he can't be sure for a while..."Zhao Chen casually said, turned around and exited Chu Yuyuan.
After sending away a few adults, she silently walked towards Chen Siyan's small building, thinking about how to appease the tigress.
But before he could get closerβ
"Lao Jin, you didn't see it, they are clearly trying to bully me." Chen Siyan said aggrievedly, completely losing his previous aggressiveness.
I don't know when Jin Abacus hurriedly said: "Don't worry, it's all to blame for that little bastard of Shi'an, I'll scold her when I go back!" Let her apologize to you at a moment's notice! β
Zhao Chen frowned in disgust, but he was also relieved, coaxed by the golden abacus, Chen Siyan didn't need to explain.
After all, the black hand let the substitute die here, and he just wanted to warn her-
"All divisions are going to be withdrawn, and the case will be reported to the Imperial Front later, so you should go home early!" Zhao Hanqing's voice sounded from behind her.
Zhao Chen lowered his eyes and smiled, turned around and asked, "Cousin also thinks that this case can be closed?" β
Zhao Hanqing looked at Chu Yuyuan in the distance, and said softly: "Someone pleaded guilty and lost his life, and also left physical evidence, which confirmed that Gao Lian was poisoned by him, and you were also kidnapped by him..."
"The cause and effect are clear, so the case can naturally be closed." He said, retracting his gaze.
Zhao Chen smiled even brighter, and his voice was as soft as a whisper: "Cousin, the case is over, the matter is still over, some people are still sleeping in the wilderness, how can this be reassuring?" β
Zhao Hanqing's bright eyebrows seemed to condense, "As long as it never appears again, you will naturally rest assured, Shi'an, you are a smart person, don't let others take advantage of it." β
After speaking, he walked away slowly, and did not turn his head back.
Zhao Chen's smile gradually dissipated.
The man who kidnapped her was named Qi Xi, who had served as a lieutenant of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies for many years.
And in fact, he is Prince Zhuang's deputy -
