Chapter 414: Difficult

It didn't take long for Pan Hai to return, his face extremely ugly.

Emperor Jingming suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Pan Hai knelt down with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, that dancing girl died violently." ”

"Sudden death?" Emperor Jingming only felt that his chest was blocked, and he asked in a deep voice, "But the torture is too much?" ”

Pan Hai knelt there, but the weather in June was cold sweat, and he lowered his head and said: "What punishment should be used for who to treat, and to what extent, the slaves and maids are all measured, but just after interrogating that dancing girl, she died violently, please allow the emperor to allow a few imperial doctors to go and check ......"

Emperor Jingming waved his hand in disappointment, and several imperial doctors did not dare to come out, bowing their heads and leaving with Pan Hai.

The atmosphere in the hall became solemn for a while.

King Yan finally peeled off the cocoon and found the poisoned dancing girl, but Pan's father-in-law didn't ask anything, and the person was gone!

Could it be that the death of the fifteenth princess is going to become an unsolved case?

Emperor Jingming is a person with a peaceful temperament, although Pan Hai messed things up, he endured it without having a seizure, gently rubbed his temples and asked Yu Jin: "Old Seven, what else do you think?" ”

Yu Jin sighed: "The poisoned dancing girl is dead, if there is someone behind her, then it can only be found from two places." ”

"Which two?"

Yu Jin stretched out his finger, and did not disturb his thoughts because of the sudden death of the dancing girl: "First, the situation of the dancing girl, from who she has befriended since she entered the palace, who she has befriended, what special things she has said, what special things she has done, or what difficulties she has encountered, the more detailed these information, the better, maybe you can find some clues from her experience." ”

"What about the second point?" Emperor Jingming asked again.

By this time, the people present no longer dared to interject indiscriminately.

The dancing girl who finally found out is dead, the emperor doesn't look at it, it's okay, but he doesn't know how to be angry, and talking nonsense at this time is death.

"The second point is the source of the poison." Yu Jin calmly analyzed, "My son wants to come, the palace should be very strict with the management of this highly poisonous thing, it is impossible to say that you can get it casually, right?" ”

Emperor Jingming nodded slowly.

Just kidding, if this kind of poison can be easily obtained by any person, then he will not be able to settle down for a day.

Emperor Jingming swept to the envoy of the Tai Hospital who was waiting on the side: "Envoy Zhang? ”

Zhang Yuan's envoy immediately said: "Your Majesty, the Broken Intestine Grass is a highly poisonous thing, a very small amount can make people die quickly, although it is effective in the treatment of rheumatism and paralysis and other diseases, but as far as Wei Chen knows, the imperial pharmacy will not store this thing." ”

The Imperial Pharmacy is located in the backyard of the Imperial Hospital, but the person in charge is not the Imperial Hospital's envoy, but the Admiral Eunuch.

The reason why Emperor Jingming bypassed the admiral eunuch in charge of the imperial pharmacy and asked the envoy Zhang Yuan first was to testify against the two phases.

Hearing what the envoy of the Zhang Yuan said, Emperor Jingming immediately glanced at the admiral eunuch in charge of the imperial pharmacy.

The admiral eunuch immediately said: "Back to the emperor, the daily transfer and receipt of medicines from the imperial pharmacy must be supported by a seal, and at the same time, a record must be left for regular inventory and archiving. And as the envoy Zhang said, the imperial pharmacy did not break the intestine grass. ”

As he spoke, he offered an object in both hands, which was the list of all the medicines in the Imperial Pharmacy.

The princess was poisoned and died, and when the Son of Heaven was angry, even unrelated people could lose their heads, not to mention these yamen involved. The admiral eunuch naturally took advantage of the fact that King Yan was investigating the case just now and prepared these in advance, in case the emperor could inquire at any time.

Emperor Jingming looked at the booklet, and his anger decreased slightly.

"In this way, the Broken Intestine Grass that Mai Ji got is definitely not a regular way to come." Yu Jindao.

Everyone couldn't help but shake their heads secretly.

If it is not a regular source and the person concerned is dead, it will be even more difficult to investigate.

In addition to the regular way, it can only be brought in from outside the palace. But how can this be checked? Who knows when this damn thing came in?

It could have been days ago, or it could have been months ago, or even years ago.

There's no way to find out.

At this time, Pan Hai led several imperial doctors who went to examine the body of the dancing girl and walked in.

Emperor Jingming immediately asked, "How?" ”

A physician replied, "That dancing girl died suddenly of a heart attack. ”

Emperor Jingming's face was slightly gloomy, and his heart was congested for a while.

The expressions of the crowd were even more subtle.

This is really a roof leak that happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind. The death of the fifteenth princess was already confusing, and the dancing girl who was finally found out did not stand the interrogation because of a sudden heart attack.

In this way, King Yan's initiative to ask for help may not be possible.

But it doesn't matter, King Yan's performance is already bright enough, he will definitely win the favor of the emperor, and he has also achieved the goal of clearing the suspicion of Princess Yan, and King Yan can retire completely.

Emperor Jingming's thoughts are similar to those of everyone.

At this time, the investigation will definitely be investigated, but it is impossible to solve it with just a few words of inquiry, but it is necessary to vigorously investigate and investigate deeply.

Bringing poison into the palace can't be let go no matter what time it is, but this is not something that can be ended in a short time.

Emperor Jingming sighed and said in a deep voice: "Old Seven, you did well today. ”

Yu Jin clenched his fists: "Father's praise is false." ”

Compared with the almost non-existent brother-sister affection for the fifteenth princess, the reason why he took over this matter was of course to avoid Ah Xiang getting involved in trouble.

Although the real culprit behind the scenes has not yet been identified, the ability to instruct the palace dancer obviously has nothing to do with Ah Yi, and his purpose has been achieved.

At this time, it is not a day's work to thoroughly investigate the workshop and harem.

This is the difference between him and Zhen Shicheng.

Zhen Shicheng's old man is a crime-solving maniac who pursues perfection, and if the case is not investigated, I am afraid that he will not even be able to sleep, he does not have the energy.

Just when Emperor Jingming was in a dull mood and was about to hastily end this heart-wrenching palace banquet, the woman's soft voice sounded: "Father, daughter-in-law dares to ask a question. ”

Emperor Jing Ming looked at the person who spoke up, and was a little surprised.

The person who spoke was none other than Jiang Yi.

It was not only Emperor Jingming who was surprised, but the vast majority of people present.

What did Princess Yan want to do when she spoke out at this time?

Yes, King Yan has just performed outstandingly, does Princess Yan have to take credit for King Yan?

If so, it would be stupid.

Although the emperor is a virtuous and gentle monarch, he has clear rewards and punishments on weekdays (the prince is not convinced by this), but now he has just lost a daughter, even if he is satisfied with King Yan's performance, it is impossible to have the heart to reward him before the real culprit is found.

"Seventh daughter-in-law, what do you want to ask?"

Under the gaze of countless eyes, Jiang seemed not to be afraid at all, and bowed his knees slightly to Emperor Jingming: "The daughter-in-law just suddenly thought of a little bit to ask this question, it may not be of any use, and I hope that the father and the emperor will not blame the daughter-in-law for talking too much." ”

"Say it."

Jiang seemed to straighten up, and his voice was slightly raised: "I don't know where the mandarin duck vines are planted in the palace?" ”
