Chapter 1022: The Situation
Wen Tao said, then raised his chin and nodded to the other side, Li Zhenping looked in the direction he pointed, and saw Du Yiheng and Lin Zixuan walking towards them together.
Seeing this, Li Zhenping breathed a sigh of relief.
Who in Beijing doesn't know that these four people are a good person, since they were children, they can't leave Meng, Meng doesn't leave Jiao, the four of them appear here together, it must have come out for a small gathering, but it happened to run into this person's murder, and it was not involved.
Thinking about it, since Lu Zheng and Wen Tao dared to reveal their identities as soon as possible, they must not be worried.
Moreover, there are witnesses who have seen that the culprit jumped out of the window and ran away, so naturally it will not be these masters.
And these people are all the prince's people, so when His Royal Highness the prince appears here, can it be said that he also came out to meet them secretly?
But is it really that simple?
Although Li Zhenping is mediocre, he will not be a fool if he can do an official position like Suncheonfu Yin in Gyeonggi, and he still has basic acumen.
Now that the dispute between the DPRK and China has emerged, even if he is not in the DPRK situation, he can always smell some rumors......
was hesitating, so I heard Wen Tao say: "Lord Li, do you want to ask the case first?" ”
When Li Zhenping heard this, he was stunned, but then his heart was relieved.
Yes, he came to investigate the case, as for whether it is clear whether it is investigated or not, no one forced it, right? The deceased was an official of the imperial court, and he was bound to report it, and even if he couldn't find out anything through the motions, no one would blame him.
At most, there is only a limit to what you can say.
But he was originally a person with limited talents, and it wasn't that anyone could suddenly get higher after saying a few words.
Li Zhenping figured this out, so he wholeheartedly asked about the case.
Shuntianfu's work is very professional, there is nothing wrong with the autopsy, and everything that should be seen can be seen.
The problem probably lies in the identity of the deceased and the weapon used to commit the murder.
As soon as he heard that the murder weapon was a scimitar used by the Huns, Li Zhenping knew that he couldn't control this matter, so he hurriedly asked someone to carry the deceased back to the Shuntian Mansion first, and then asked for a list of Yunhualou's guests today, and then asked Yunhualou to be sealed, and he was ready to enter the palace to ask the emperor to go up.
However, before leaving, you still have to say hello to those people, especially "that one".
The prince didn't want to reveal his identity, Li Zhenping naturally didn't dare to poke it out, so he could only vaguely say to Lu Zheng and a few people: "Where is the duty of the official, there was a murder in Yunhualou, and before the matter was investigated, I had to temporarily seal it first, disturbing a few small gatherings, which is really a pity, and there is also a few people who appeared at the scene of the murder, and I have to ask a few words later, and please don't blame a few people, we are too, routine." ”
Wen Tao nodded and said: "Lord Li's responsibilities, polite, they are all as they should be, we know how to do it, Lord Li should be busy." ”
Li Zhenping was also slightly relieved to see that these people were reasonable, and then arched his hand almost invisibly in the direction where the prince was, and then led people away with a hula.
The corpse was taken away, Yunhualou was to be temporarily sealed, and the guests had to leave, only the shopkeeper and his buddies in Yunhualou were suffering.
Yunhualou has always been the favorite gathering place of nobles in Beijing, but now there is a murder, even if it is found out that it has nothing to do with Yunhualou in the end, I am afraid that Yunhualou's business will also be affected.
But the shopkeeper and his guys couldn't say anything, so they could only cooperate with the government to carefully send the distinguished guests away first.
Fortunately, the yamen of Shuntian Mansion was guarding the building, and Lu Zheng and a few others were there, so these people did not dare to make trouble.
Of course, it is not excluded that some people have already recognized the identity of the prince, so naturally they dare not make trouble.
Of course, they are also bad luck in their hearts, and they come out for a good meal, who would have thought that they would die? They have all become "suspects", and they may have to wait for the government to summon them for questioning.
This is out to relax, this is obviously out to find uncomfortable!
However, if you want to say that you are uncomfortable now, I am afraid that "that master" is the most uncomfortable......
Lu Zheng and others were the last to go.
There was a murder, and everyone didn't have the heart to go any further, and they originally planned to go to the West Market after eating, but they couldn't go at this time.
The fourth prince was going back to the palace, and it happened that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also going back, so he took the four princesses with him.
Before parting, Lu Zheng talked for a while in front of the prince's car, and then watched the prince and the fourth princess drive away.
The rest of the people, after a little discussion, Lu Zheng wanted to send An Sheng home first, Wen Tao and Xie Wanrong, as well as Du Yiheng and Lin Zixuan, also went home first to tell the elders in the family about the matter.
Then they went their separate ways.
......
Lu Zheng and An Sheng still sat in the same car, Siqi drove the car, and Qinghui sat outside with Siqi.
In the carriage, Lu Zheng and An Sheng whispered.
An Sheng asked Lu Zheng: "Do you think this matter was really done by the Huns?" ”
Lu Zheng didn't answer, but asked An Sheng: "What do you think?" ”
An Sheng shook his head and replied, "I don't think it's likely." ”
How long has it been since the Xiongnu suffered a big loss from Nanzhao, and they have made a comeback so soon?
Besides, even if the Xiongnu were to make a comeback, it would be impossible to kill only a dispensable petty official in the Nanzhao court, right?
Fei ran to Nanzhao to kill people with so much effort, what did the Hun King want?
"I also think it's unlikely," Lu Zheng's voice was very low, and his face was a little solemn, "This matter, it's too coincidental, many coincidences are added together, it's not a coincidence, but artificial, the imperial history who died, he only impeached His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the court a few days ago, do you know what he said about His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”
An Sheng didn't expect Lu Zheng to take the initiative to tell her about this, but she immediately asked, "What is it?" ”
"He said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is self-respecting."
Self-respect? Say the prince?
An Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he instantly understood what Lu Zheng meant.
I'm afraid that what the imperial historian really wants to say is that the prince has a heart of disobedience......
The crown prince now has a good reputation in the court, and he has steadily suppressed the momentum of the eldest prince, if it weren't for the emperor's pressure, inside and outside the court, I'm afraid that most of them would have been in the hands of the prince.
The older the emperor gets, the more suspicious he becomes, sometimes he seems to rely on the crown prince, and sometimes he suppresses him everywhere.
However, in the past, the emperor suppressed the crown prince to promote the eldest prince, but now......
"Then who do you think this imperial history is? Ruiwang's faction? Or ...... "Emperor's faction?"
In the latter sentence, An Sheng did not ask directly.
Some things can't be said too bluntly, too bluntly, and it really becomes a big disrespect.
Lu Zheng had a little doubt in his eyes, shook his head and said: "I'm not sure, just looking at this method, it is very similar to the handwriting of King Rui, but... The current situation in the DPRK and China is somewhat complicated, and the emperor... It seems that there is some jealousy of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......"
