286 Witnesses

In the East Palace, the crown princess sat on the dressing table for a long time, then suddenly stood up and hurried to the main hall.

The prince just went down to the court, and he was also looking at the book, which was different from the unpredictable in the past, and he seemed to be a little angry at this time. The crown princess rushed straight in, glaring at the prince behind the bookcase, her chest rising and falling sharply because of her uncontrollable emotions. The prince also looked at her, his thin lips pursed tightly, and the emotion in his eyes had not yet had time to fade.

"Yu'er was falsely accused of murder, do you know?" The crown princess stared at him and said hurriedly.

The prince nodded.

The crown princess rushed to the bookcase in a few steps, tears falling down, and a few folds spread out were instantly wet.

The prince calmly and slowly wiped away the tears from the fold, then took the silk from his sleeve and raised his hand to wipe her tears.

"Don't cry, he'll be fine."

The crown princess bit her lip, sat down on the dan pier, and fell on his lap and sobbed.

The prince stroked her hair, but the anger in his eyes gradually could not be hidden.

It was nearly noon, and the people sent out by Dali Temple had not yet returned.

Because the status of the people present is not low, at this time, seats were arranged in the yamen for everyone to sit down, including Yin Yu. The officials also served tea a long time ago, and even Dou Jin asked people to move the lavender cage behind the yamen, and for a while, the yamen of Dali Temple showed an unprecedented pomp.

Yin Yu hasn't spoken since he hit the emperor and opened his mouth, he, like Xie Wan, is also thinking about the opportunity to reverse, in fact, people with a discerning eye know that Xie Rong is deliberately targeting him, but at that time, there were indeed only him and Xie Qi in Jingshui Hutong. No one can prove that Xie Rong is falsely accused, if Dali Temple obstructs it again, won't he have no chance to turn around at all?

Thinking of this, he looked at the Protector and Wei Bin. Huguo Gong and Wei Bin also happened to look at him, it seemed that everyone's thoughts were the same, and they were afraid of long nights and dreams.

So Yin Yu nodded without a trace, got up and said to Dou Jin above: "Lord Dou, I remember that the position I am in today is under the walls of the White Horse Temple, simply put, the position behind me is the White Horse Temple, and the murder weapon was from a place ten zhang away. Ten zhang away is exactly inside the temple wall.

And Master Xie said that he was waiting for the deceased in the temple at that time. Since they are all in the temple, I think the murderer is also likely to be from the temple. And I thought about it again, the only person in the temple who had a motive to kill was Lord Xie Rongxie. ”

As Yin Yu spoke, the eyes of the people in Yitang projected on.

Dou Jin nodded. Ask Xie Rong: "What do you say?" ”

Xie Rong said: "Yin Gongzi's words are really ridiculous! The deceased was my own niece. Why did I kill her? ”

Yin Yu said: "Although Xie Qi is your niece. But you didn't have any uncle or nephew relationship with her. Xie Qi had repeatedly ruined Ling Yan's reputation when he was a child. Two years ago, she was suspected of bribing Li Gu's domestic servants in the household department to do dirty things, but Mrs. Li found out. Mrs. Li took her family to your mansion to make a big fuss, which made you lose face.

"Your brother Xie Hong, that is, Xie Qi's father, is disabled and has no permanent property, and you not only ignore it when you live in the ancestral house of Qinghe, but you have not even given any alms. Your nephew has begged you several times to help you with a future, and you have never agreed.

"Although your mother enjoys fine clothes and food in the Shilang Mansion, you dislike her widow and remarry, and you are afraid that she will embarrass you when she comes out, so she has been locked up in the back house for so many years, and she often has to suffer the faces of others. This shows that you are a cold and ruthless person, you can even ignore your own mother and brother, and it is not surprising that you will do something to Xie Qi, who has a bad mind and has repeatedly hurt your father and daughter. ”

Xie Rong's reputation is the most important, but his reputation has been destroyed to the point that only a little scum remains.

Hearing Yin Yu say so much, his face was already gloomy.

"With this, can it prove that I have the intention to kill Xie Qi?"

"If you can guess that I have a motive for killing, why can't I?"

Yin Yu raised his lips and sneered, then walked to the corpse, pointed at her and said: "In addition, I heard that although Xie Qi is not married, he has already had an affair with others, isn't it a shame for you to have such a niece, Xie Shilang, who prides himself on being a noble celebrity?" You can't even accept your daughter marrying as a flat wife, how can you accept such an outlier in the family? Even for this, you have a motive to kill. ”

"It's nonsense." Xie Rong laughed. "The murderer who can throw a sword to kill people within ten zhang must be a person like Gongzi who has martial arts, and he never deals with people in the rivers and lakes, where can he find such a person to kill? Besides, I just want to kill her, and there are more opportunities, why do I need to be so thoughtful?

"Young Master Yin, you still admit it! This kind of nonsense will not help you to cover up the truth at all, except to appear that you are naΓ―ve and ignorant. ”

"You're not just trying to kill her, of course." Yin Yu looked at him and said, "You are still trying to kill me." As long as I go to prison or am sentenced to death, then no one will investigate Guo Feng. The truth behind the Cao Yun case will also be buried in the ground from now on! You can rest easy and plan for your future! ”

Hearing Guo Feng's words, everyone's eyes were shocked again.

The emperor spoke first: "What else can Guo Feng investigate?" Make it clear! ”

"Yes!" Yin Yu said: "I heard a few days ago that after Guo Feng's family moved south, they soon disappeared. The little one also heard that this case is related to the one behind it called Seven-" Speaking of this, he set his eyes on Ji Zhenyuan and Xie Rong.

Ji Zhenyuan is a scheming person, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly get involved in this matter, and he would also talk about Mr. Seven! So I couldn't help but change my face on the spot. Xie Rong's brows also moved suddenly, he had already prepared that Yin Yu would tell his guess about why they framed him in a hurry, so that they could accuse him of slander, and he didn't expect him to suddenly mention Mr. Seven.

The startling wood in Dou Jin's hand next to him also fell to the table due to shock, making a sound that was neither heavy nor light.

"What seven?" The Emperor's eyes narrowed.

Yin Yu said: "The specific situation, the humble position is also being investigated, and when there is a result, I will definitely report it to the emperor." ”

If the emperor says yes at this time, it proves that the emperor will definitely help him pass the test today! After all, compared to a major event related to social affairs, a murder case is really nothing! As the emperor's own grandson, if the emperor has the heart to protect him, then even if he is deposed, it is a matter of one sentence to erase this matter!

In the final analysis, they just took a fancy to the emperor's bold strategy because of his own health and did not want to pull Yin Yu into this palace circle to add trouble.

Ji Zhenyuan got up and said: "Your Majesty, Guo Feng's case has been a long time, and according to the minister's opinion, Yin Gongzi is deliberately confusing his vision. ”

The emperor stared at Yin Yu, and Yin Yu also looked back at him.

"Xie Rong." The emperor looked at Yin Yu for a while, and suddenly set his eyes on Xie Rong, "I compensated you 10,000 taels of silver for Yin Yu and closed the case." ”

As soon as these words came out, Xie Rong and Ji Zhenyuan froze there.

Is he going to stand up for Yin Yu? Do you really want to smooth out this case? Wouldn't this one be a farce?

Huguo Gong and Wei Bin were happy, who said that the emperor didn't care for Yin Yu? People rushed over from the early courts, and they also took out 10,000 taels of private money to sell the case for their grandson, they are emperors, and they are grandsons on one side and courtiers on the other, what else can they do?

Of course, they also knew that the reason why he made a decision so quickly was mostly due to Yin Yu's words. Since Yin Yu is investigating this matter, of course he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one, if Guo Feng's case still has inside information, then there is bound to be a shady scene in Caoyun, as an emperor who knows the severity, of course he must investigate thoroughly!

They all breathed a sigh of relief and were about to step forward to echo a few words, but at this time, a group of people suddenly walked in outside the Dali Temple, and the people who had just been sent out to investigate the scene had returned.

"Emperor Qiyu, Lord Qiyu, the lowly officials found a witness at the scene, he happened to spend the night under the willow tree on the shore of East Lake at the time of the crime, and witnessed everything that passed at that time! Please interrogate with an adult! ”

After that, the official brought in a little beggar covered in dirt.

Hu Guogong and Wei Bin changed their faces when they saw the witnesses coming in, and Yin Yu was only one step away from getting out, why did they happen to make a trip at this time?

They suddenly felt a sense of foreboding in their hearts. Looking at Ji Zhenyuan again, Ji Zhenyuan's face was as dark as a dark.

Now that the witness has appeared, the emperor naturally can't say anything anymore, so he has to wave his hand and let Dou Jin continue the trial.

Dou Jin said: "Who is kneeling down there?" ”

The beggar stammered, "No, there is no name. I'm just a begger. ”

Dou Jin was silent, pointed at Yin Yu, and asked, "Do you know this person?" ”

The beggar glanced at him and suddenly said, "Know!" This morning, I was sleeping soundly under the willow tree when I was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves. When I looked up, I saw six or seven people riding horses from the side of the White Horse Temple. They weren't going fast, and it was getting bright, so I could tell he was the one in the lead. ”

"And then?" Dou Jin said: "Then what did you see again?" ”

The beggar swallowed his spit and said, "After they entered the alley, a carriage soon came from here, and when the two sides were about to meet, the carriage stopped, and a maid walked down from it to ask this man for directions, and this person did not speak, it was the person next to him who said." Then, when the maid was about to leave, I heard someone in the carriage say, 'Hey, isn't this Yin Gongzi?' Then another man came down.

"This person is a woman, she is dressed better than the head card of Yixianglou, she seems to know this Yin Gongzi, and then walked in front of him......"

Although Yin Yu was very suspicious in his heart, when he heard this, he was always relieved, because the content of the beggar's confession was exactly the same as the truth. But then his words shocked everyone, including him! (To be continued.) )
