"What does Liu Aiqing mean by this?" Ruizong's brows furrowed slightly when he heard this, and his tone was also a little cold.

Seeing Liu Youqiu holding the guard board with both hands, he said respectfully: "Now this case, everyone thinks that no one will be so stupid to commit this case at their own doorstep." What's more, it is the son of the Duke of Jin, Lord Hua'an, so everyone's first reaction is that someone must have planted the blame, but this often allows the murderer to get away with it. ”

"Liu Youqiu, do you know what you are talking about, if you don't have evidence, you are slandering the court officials, do you know what kind of crime this is." Song looked at Liu Youqiu.

He has been an official in the same dynasty as Hua Qian for decades, and he is very clear about the character of the two sons of the Hua family, and now the Hua family is involved in this case, and there is no evidence to clear the suspicion for the Hua family.

Liu Youqiu looked at Song, and then said lukewarmly: "Song Xianggong, I'm just telling the truth, why is Song Xianggong so excited, could it be that he was said by the minister." ”

After speaking, he didn't care about how bad Song's face was, and just said to Ruizong: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Huada has nothing to do with this case." As the head of the household, Hua Guo is the son of Jin Guogong, and Jin Guogong is now leading troops to entrench in Yanbei, Hua Da is unscrupulous. And calculate everyone's thoughts, knowing that if they do this, everyone will definitely not believe it, and think that someone is deliberately framing them. On the contrary, he can sit back and relax unscrupulously, so bold, so rampant, I am afraid that only Huada people dare to do it. The emperor should not forget the Duke of Jin, when he was loyal to the emperor, he dared to bring weapons to the court and kill the people of the imperial history when the palace. ”

Speaking of this old incident, Ruizong's face suddenly changed.

Hua An knelt on the ground and felt bad, and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the minister is wronged." The minister would never do such a thing, and I hope the emperor will investigate it clearly. ”

Chen Jingheng couldn't help but think of what Su Yunjun had told him when he saw Liu Youqiu, this Liu Youqiu was an ambitious person, and he asked him to assist Chen Longji at the beginning, but now he has defected to Chen Longji and turned over to bite the Hua family.

What a treacherous villain.

"Father, what Lord Liu said is not impossible, but whether this case is related to Hua Shangshu or not, the murderer is definitely not Hua Shangshu alone. After all, the six people who died in this mansion, except for the little maid of the Hua family, the rest have nothing to do with Hua Shangshu, why did Hua Shangshu make such a big case in the palace, is it just to tease the ministers? Presumably, Hua Shangshu is not such a ruthless person who regards human life like a mustard. Chen Jingheng said, looking at Ruizong.

Although Ruizong is not powerful, he is not a mediocre person, so he calmed down immediately.

Seeing Liu Youqiu speak: "Lord Hua is the uncle of Princess Song, and King Song naturally said this, but he just wanted to cover up." ”

Chen Jingheng looked at Liu Youqiu when he heard this, and his voice was cold: "Lord Liu is holding on to Hua Shangshu, why don't you mention Zhao Yu who was found in the house?" Why didn't you mention the prince of Ningguo, who was imprisoned in Jingzhao Mansion? One of the two was found at the scene of the murder, and the other was witnessed sneaking around at the time of the crime. Why did Lord Liu avoid the important and trivial, but these two people didn't mention it, isn't there a suspicion of covering up? ”

Liu Youqiu was shocked when he heard this.

Immediately about to speak, he heard that the prince could no longer stand: "Father, the son thinks that this case is widely implicated, and it should be thoroughly investigated. ”

Ruizong saw that the court said that it was nothing more than the two sons fighting with Princess Taiping, and he only felt a headache, so he immediately waved his hand: "This matter will be stopped first, and the case will still be tried by Jingzhao Mansion, and it will be discussed here today, and it will be discussed tomorrow." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and waved his sleeves away.

Only then did the inner chamberlain sing loudly: "Retreat from the court." ”

Lord Chen watched the fuss for a while, and finally returned to his hands, unable to tell whether he was happy or uncomfortable.

Especially after retiring from the dynasty, the crown prince, King Song, and Xiao Zhizhong and Cui beside Princess Taiping all smiled at him.

The thought of that smile made him feel creepy.

After retreating from the court, Cui hurried to the princess's mansion and told all the things that happened in the court this morning.

Princess Taiping was holding the thrush in the mirror, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but put down the eyebrows in her hand and asked, "Yao Chongsong and Liu Youqiu have confronted each other coldly?" ”

"Yes, at that time, Liu Youqiu had to bite Hua'an, so Yao Chongsong stood up and spoke. Liu Youqiu is only today's through the coup d'état, which made Yao Chongsong look down on him very much, and he didn't give half of his face in the palace today, but he was afraid that it was for Yao Gong and Song Gong to be very angry. Originally, the prince wanted to hand over the case to the Criminal Department, but because of this, the trouble broke up. Choi said.

Princess Taiping didn't listen to this, she was just calculating in her heart, Liu Youqiu offended Yao Chongsong so much.

Immediately laughed.

Cui Jian couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Why is the princess so happy?" ”

Hearing this, Princess Taiping painted her eyebrows, and then looked at Cui Dao: "Today, this Liu Youqiu has done us a great favor, and the more he is like this, the more he is rejected by these old ministers." Don't look at this Yao Chongsong is not young now, but the weight of these people's words in front of the fourth brother is heavier than that of the palace. Liu Youqiu offended them, so he pushed them to the palace. ”

As he spoke, he stood up without delay.

Seeing this, Cui hurriedly asked, "Where are you going, princess?" ”

Hearing this, Princess Taiping smiled and said, "Enter the palace." ”

After speaking, Princess Taiping looked at Cui Dao: "You go down first." ”

Then he took the palace maid to the palace.

On the other side, Lord Chen took people to the back door of Washington again, Ge San's body was still lying on the ground at the moment, and the human head in the package had already begun to decompose, exuding an unpleasant smell.

Lord Chen pinched his nose and came over, and saw that Ge San only had a knife wound on his neck.

And the autopsy also said that apart from this wound, there were no other wounds.

It was clearly a fatal one.

Lord Chen saw that this was the case, and immediately asked Jin Wuwei next to him: "Did you come here last night after hearing the screams?" ”

"My lord, it was the time of the shift, we were at the front door, and we heard a scream at the back door, and when he came, he was already lying on the ground, and he was not dead yet. He died without waiting for us to ask, apparently just dead. Jin Wuwei's officers and soldiers hurriedly said.

Suddenly, Lord Chen's brows furrowed: "You said that he still had a breath at that time, but he couldn't speak and died of his breath?" ”

The officer nodded.

"And you can go after the murderer?" Lord Chen's eyes rolled, and then he glanced at the alley at the back door of Hua's house.

"We went after him in two ways, but the murderer fled so fast that he disappeared without even seeing a figure. In addition, it was the middle of the night, so no suspicious people were caught. ”
