Chapter 824: Don't Listen, Don't Listen
Lu Sheng Xiang owner? β
Zhen Shicheng explained: "It's the crown princess. β
Emperor Jing Ming twitched the corner of his mouth.
He doesn't need to be reminded!
"The crown princess was slandered and reported to the official?"
Zhen Shicheng opened the rattan box, took out the case file placed at the top, and said loudly: "At the beginning of February, I received a letter from Lu Shengxiang's big shopkeeper Xiu Niangzi, complaining that the rumors in the capital were ill-intentioned, which caused Lu Shengxiang to close the door and damage the reputation of Lu Shengxiang's ownerββ"
Emperor Jingming interrupted: "There is no specific defendant? β
"Not really."
"You took it?"
Zhen Shicheng glanced at Emperor Jingming in surprise: "Of course Weichen took it." β
Emperor Jingming was silent.
He wanted to knock Lao Zhen to death with a paperweight!
The turmoil finally subsided, what is this old guy tossing around.
But thinking that the old guy in front of him was his in-laws, Emperor Jingming couldn't help it.
It's a loss to hurt my daughter and not be able to get married.
"Did you find out?"
Zhen Shicheng's calm expression was replaced with a hint of embarrassment: "It's found out, but things are a bit complicated......"
"Speak slowly." Emperor Jingming glanced at the rattan box again.
With such a large box, can it not be complicated?
After many investigations, Weichen confirmed that several idlers who spread rumors were organized, and traced down the leader of this organization to the owner of a teahouse named Li Ji. This Li Ji was born poor, he lost his father and mother early and became a prodigal, and the source of the funds for opening a teahouse was a little strange, but fortunately, Weichen tried hard to pry his mouth open. There is a mysterious patron behind him, who not only gave him money to open a teahouse, but also occasionally gave him some tasks, most of which are related to spreading rumors to influence public opinion in the capital......"
Emperor Jingming listened silently, and the more he listened, the more ugly his face became.
The teahouse tavern is a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, and it is the most convenient to spread rumors, and he can understand that rumors can kill people invisibly.
This Li Ji should be cut with a thousand cuts!
"Has the mystery man found out?"
Zhen Shicheng paused and said: "Every time the mysterious person sees Li Ji, he covers his face with a hat, Li Ji can't describe the appearance of that person, he can only guess from the body shape, walking posture and other aspects that he is a man in his thirties, moderate in size, thin, and a somewhat feminine voice. β
Emperor Jingming shook his head: "There are so many such people, trying to find out is like looking for a needle in a haystack." β
"Yes, fortunately, Weichen asked some information from Li Ji with his experience."
"What did you ask?"
"Once a mysterious person met Li Ji and inadvertently left a bronze gilt four-leaf clover button, which was found by Li Ji and hidden." Zhen Shicheng said as he took out a small vermilion lacquer box from the rattan box, opened it and presented it to Emperor Jingming.
Emperor Jingming glanced at the bronze gilt button lying in it, and his face was cloudy.
The clothes of ordinary people were made of thin rope to form a plate or simply knotted directly, and it was none other than the rich and noble who would make buttons with gold, silver, precious stones, ivory and other materials.
He is familiar with the pattern of this button, and it is owned by some of the chamberlains in the palace.
Zhen Shicheng observed Emperor Jingming's face, estimated that the old emperor could still stand it, stroked his beard and said: "Considering the special nature of this button, Weichen investigated the five senses of Qin Tianjian Lingtai Lang Zhu Duohuanββ"
Emperor Jingming was taking a sip of tea to relieve his gloomy mood, and almost squirted out the tea when he heard the words.
Lingtai Lang Zhu Duohuan?
Who asked Lao Zhen to check this!
When he ordered Han Ran to investigate, he thought that it was about the prince, and he was afraid that he would have something to do with the palace again, and he didn't want too many foreign ministers to know.
"What can the button have to do with the facial features Lingtailang?" Emperor Jingming asked angrily.
He couldn't figure out how Lao Zhen thought about it.
Zhen Shicheng replied seriously: "Qin Tianjian set the auspicious day of the crown prince as the day when the heavenly dog swallows the sun, and it is very likely that someone will assassinate the prince. β
"Did you find out?"
"Found some ......"
After listening to Zhen Shicheng's speech, Emperor Jingming's face turned completely dark.
Very good, it's more detailed than Han Ran's investigation, is Jin Linwei all eating?
Zhen Shicheng arched his hand: "After the two cases were investigated, the minister came to a bold inference that the mysterious person who funded Li Ji was probably Wang Ying, the servant of Cining Palace. β
"What?" Hearing Zhen Shicheng say this result, Emperor Jingming didn't feel too shocked for some reason, but had a trace of indescribable fear.
"Your Majesty, please take a look." Zhen Shicheng picked up a case file from the rattan box and opened it, "Weichen asked from Li Ji that the mysterious person was on the first day of the new year every time he contacted him, and only the people from Cining Palace in the palace went out of the palace on the first day of every month to make incense, and this has been the case for many years. Weichen also explored the people who came out of the palace on the first day of the month in Cining Palace, and Wang Ying was there every time, and Wang Ying was in line with Li Ji's description of the mysterious body being moderate and thin. β
Emperor Jingming's face darkened: "So, the person who made waves twice was Wang Ying, the servant in the Cining Palace?"
Zhen Shicheng was silent for a moment, and said loudly: "Weichen thinks that the chamberlain Wang Ying is just doing things for others, and the real planner is the Queen Mother-"
"Shut up!" Emperor Jingming stood up suddenly, holding a white jade paperweight and pointing at Zhen Shicheng, "Bold!" β
On the side, Pan Hai lowered his head stiffly, feeling bitter in his heart.
Lord Zhen didn't cheat him, dare to say this kind of thing, what if the emperor was angry and killed them all?
Zhen Shicheng knelt down calmly: "The conclusions reached by Weichen are all based on the investigation, please ask the emperor to learn from them." β
"I told you to stop! Your so-called conclusion is just speculation, and even whether the mysterious person is the chamberlain Wang Ying is speculation, how dare you drag the Queen Mother in? β
Zhen Shicheng did not flinch: "Weichen will not wronged a good person in handling the case, nor will he let go of a bad person." β
Emperor Jingming's face twisted for a while.
Does this mean that the Queen Mother is a bad person?
The Empress Dowager's kind face shook in his mind, and Emperor Jingming only felt a pain in his brain, and said angrily: "Zhen Shicheng, don't rely on my trust to be presumptuous, just do it in moderation!" β
Zhen Shicheng lowered his eyes and was not shocked: "Wechen doesn't dare to be presumptuous, let alone presumptuous, what Wechen has always asked for is the truth." β
The word "truth" almost crushed Emperor Jingming and made him crumbling.
Pan Hai hurriedly supported Emperor Jingming and persuaded: "The emperor should not be angry. β
Emperor Jingming slowed down, stared at Zhen Shicheng and warned: "There is no need to investigate this case further." There is no evidence of speculation, but it is just disturbing! β
Pan Hai desperately glanced at Zhen Shicheng.
Lord Zhen, let's go quickly, so as to give the emperor time to slow down, and let the emperor move the queen mother as soon as he comes up, isn't this whimsical?
Zhen Shicheng was unmoved, and pointed to the rattan box full of case files: "These are all evidence, but the emperor just turned a blind eye." β
Is he a man who talks nonsense? The emperor questioned his ability to handle cases.
You can endure anything, but this one can't bear it!
Emperor Jingming was angry and said angrily: "Come on, drag Zhen Shicheng down!" β
