Chapter 693: The princess is wise, and Ting Yi is innocent

Dark gold embroidered honeysuckle rolls, stone blue dark flower wind lead, Jin Zhaikou beads, emerald comb double ornamented hair, cloud temples are not blue, eyebrows are slightly crepe, Gu Panjian eyes are bright and sharp, and the body is straight when standing - of course, the person who came is not Wei Guogong, but the eldest princess.

Except for the beautiful scenery, the other three were probably a little surprised.

The chamberlain who ran errands for the Son of Heaven only bent down and stepped on the melting snow water out of Ci'an Palace half a moment ago, and it was impossible to rush to the Beijing Health Division at this time, just now when the eldest princess was invited to see the eldest princess, the Son of Heaven was not convinced, and when he saw the real person at this time, he inevitably frowned secretly - could it be that the Weiguo Mansion had taken precautions, and the eldest princess came so timely?

However, he firmly believes that even so, after the two cases of Li and Zhang were involved, even if the eldest princess guessed that this matter was aimed at the Weiguo Mansion, it was too late, Li Gui and Zhang Minghe were indeed closely related to the Su family, the Maiko and the wine shop guys were indeed two people, and the two were already dead people, and the dead people could not defend themselves, the more the eldest princess felt wronged, and tried every means to excuse and defend the eldest son, and she might even be annoyed and angry, the more she was suspected of being a thief, which made the queen mother dissatisfied and angry.

The Empress Dowager was already suspicious, and the Su family couldn't come up with conclusive evidence, so she wasn't so easy to coax.

The Son of Heaven was relieved again, and smiled slowly: "Today's snow melts and the weather is cold, my aunt and my grandmother and Princess Chu are all the same, is it possible that my aunt and grandmother also guessed that there will be something unexpected, and I want to see the Duke of Wei Guo today?" ”

This is said with a sharp edge, implying that the Su family had expected it and clearly knew that the murderer had confessed, and it would not be long before the news of the deaths of Li and Zhang was about to be returned.

The eldest princess has a golden order from her ancestors, and she does not need to wait for an edict to enter and leave the palace, but she rarely uses this privilege, and today is indeed a little different.

The eldest princess was helped by Yijing to sit down, gently patted her granddaughter's hand twice, and when she raised her eyes, her deep gaze was implied to be sharp: "The Holy Edict to see the dog?" Listening to this tone, it doesn't seem to be a good thing. He also said to the Empress Dowager: "I entered the palace today, it is indeed a strange thing, regardless of it for the time being, I don't know why the saint saw the foreign minister in Ci'an Palace, and the fifth sister-in-law is willing to relieve her doubts." ”

Even if the Empress Dowager was secretly suspicious, she would not appear in front of her, but she was not allowed to say the words, but was picked up by the Son of Heaven, and told the criminal department how Lu Ze tried the case and how the murderer confessed, and frowned deeply at the end: "Based on the confessions of the two commoners, I don't dare to believe it, but in the end, it is related to a life, and it also involves Yongchang Houfu, so I want to Zhao Weiguo Gong come here and ask a clear understanding in front of my grandmother." ”

The eldest princess's expression naturally sank: "The fifth sister-in-law believes the words of the murderer, thinks that the Su family has ill intentions, not to mention the harm to people's lives, and wants to frame Yongchang Houfu?" Fifth sister-in-law, Houfu is also a foreign family of Shangyuan, how can Shangyuan cause harm. ”

The Son of Heaven sneered, but did not refute, some of the words were obvious but not good, whether the Su family had a motive The Empress Dowager herself also weighed, so she heard the eldest princess ask again: "I have heard my grandson Su Xun mention it, and there was some discussion outside earlier, all saying that Yongchang Houfu treats an arrogant common people with great courtesy, I am wondering, when I hear it today, is that the common people are the deceased Wu nationality?" ”

The empress dowager was slightly uncomfortable because of the eldest princess's question, but fortunately, the eldest princess did not unforgivingly entangled, and the topic was also regarded as giving each other a step, so she said that Wu Ji claimed to know Cao Da's whereabouts, and the two of Yan Tingyi's case in front of her had also discussed, the eldest princess knew the importance of Cao Da, bowed slightly, but asked Yijing: "Jing'er looks at things, has always had different visions, after listening to this experience, I feel that there is something strange, who is making waves behind, first framed the Yongchang Houfu and failed, and then defiled the Weiguo Mansion. ”

When Yan Tingyi's case was triggered, Yijing was still in the hands of the "remnants", and it was impossible to know the details, so he pretended to ask something about it, and did not rush to speculate, frowning and thinking deeply for a while.

The Son of Heaven spoke slowly: "Although the introduction of Yan Tingyi's case is arguing endlessly, this case is handed over to Dali Siqing to be in charge of trial, although Cao Da is a key matter, although there are many people who know about it, it is only for courtiers, if Wu is not a common person, he will never be able to say Cao Dalai, if his old friend has not been advised by Wu Ji to know first, he is a murderer, if he has not listened to the discussion of Ligui and Zhang Minghe, it is impossible to mention Cao Da, so I think that the words of the murderer are not casual nonsense. ”

"What the saint said is good, and the concubines also think that Wu Ji is not an ordinary scoundrel, and his purpose is definitely not to make money." Yi Jing then spoke: "But the concubine is ugly, Wu Ji may not know Cao Da, but was instructed by someone to use Cao Da to lure Yongchang Houfu to pay attention, he was in full view of everyone several times, extremely disrespectful, arrogant and rude, it seems to be intentional, intended to make everyone mistakenly think that he has some handle to threaten Yongchang Houfu, yes, once he is poisoned, Yongchang Houfu will have the motive to commit murder." ”

The Son of Heaven raised his eyebrows slightly: "In this way, the princess is admitting that someone has laid it out, and she intends to frame the Houfu." ”

The words of the Son of Heaven are really traps everywhere, and Yijing said bluntly: "The concubine actually thinks that it is impossible for Wu Ji to know Cao Da's whereabouts. ”

Since the eldest princess entered the palace, even the Son of Heaven gave up the main seat, and at this time sitting in the circle chair on the lower side, Yijing and Mrs. Yan did not dare to "sit on an equal footing" with the Son of Heaven, both of them stood aside, Yijing finished saying that firm words, and turned to the main seat slightly: "Niangniang just explained that the reason why the third cousin was questioned was because the bribes were found by the search, and the box where the bribes were locked was stored by Cao Da, and some officials questioned that it should be the third cousin who saw that the evidence of the crime was conclusive, and in order to get rid of the crime, he connected his cousin-in-law and relatives, making Cao Da disappear and blame him, If the truth is the case, then even if Cao Da is not killed, he must have been detained by the Yongchang Houfu to see it, how can Wu Ji know his whereabouts? It is impossible for Yongchang Houfu to be coerced by him. ”

Yu Feng deduced that Wu Ji would die, and the opponent intended to blame the Weiguo Mansion, so he actually told Yijing the details of Yan Tingyi's case, and after listening to it, it was not difficult to find that the opponent was planning the conspiracy, revealing this small flaw.

At this time, she continued: "The reason why Yongchang Houfu believed Wu's words as true and treated him politely was because he hoped to find out Cao Da and let the third cousin be innocent, which shows that it is impossible for the third cousin to accept bribes and pervert the law, and let Cao Da bear the guilt, the truth is that Cao Da was bribed and hid the bribe money in the things deposited by the master's family, it is clear that someone wants to frame the third cousin, and this Cao Da has probably been wiped out, how can Wu Ji find out his whereabouts?" Although the concubine could not determine who the conspirator was, the innocence of the third cousin should be proven. ”

The Son of Heaven never wanted Yi Jing to rush to avenge the grievances of the Patriotic Princess, but he used this mistake to confirm Yan Tingyi's innocence, the casual smile on the corner of his lips melted away like snow outside, and his eyebrows gradually became angry, and he couldn't help but hear the Empress Dowager's joyful words: "What Jing Yatou said is good, how can the saint think?" ”

How else could he think that he was only angry that Chen Xiang was not thoughtful, and in order to use Wu's nationality to blame Wei Guogong, he didn't realize the contradiction of this plan, so he had to play his spirit: "Princess Chu is really wise." ”

"Jing'er is indeed more wise and decisive than the officials of Dali Temple." The Empress Dowager sneered: "Those court officials, holding the court money, but turning a blind eye to the obvious, Tingyi's case dragged on for more than half a year, and no judgment was given. ”

The Son of Heaven is angry - Dali Siqing was a subordinate official when he was in the palace, and he was really a confidant, but he didn't want to be taken by the Empress Dowager, and he saw that his position was about to be lost, and he lost an important chess piece.

Yijing won a small game, so he naturally wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue: "The reason why Wu Ji knows Cao Da is very likely to be bribed by the framed third cousin, he never expected that he would be poisoned, and someone used his death to frame the Weiguo Mansion." ”

Soon after the marriage happened, even if it could cause a gap between the Su and Yan families, but Yan Tingyi was framed but before the marriage, the Weiguo Mansion could never be the mastermind, of course, the Son of Heaven could also quibble, saying that even if the Wei Guogong was not the one who framed Yan Tingyi, he might also use the poisoning of Wu to blame the Yan family, but Yi Jing had already proposed that Yongchang Houfu did not have the motive to kill Wu Ji, but hoped that he would tell Cao Da's whereabouts in order to redress Tingyi's grievances, so how could Wei Guogong think that killing Wu could blame Yongchang Hou?

The Son of Heaven was just depressed, but he smiled when he saw Yi Jingwan: "Shengshang, Niangniang Rongyu, if it is really as the murderer said, this matter is the mastermind of the father, with the ability of the father, it is really easy to let Wu Ji die without suspicion, how can he let him die in the Morning and Dusk Pavilion, involving Li and Zhang, wouldn't it make people suspicious?" ”

At this time, the Empress Dowager had basically dispelled her suspicions about Wei Guogong, and she frequently bowed her head when she heard the words.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Son of Heaven hurriedly said: "The truth will not be revealed until Li Gui and Zhang Minghe are arrested and interrogated." ”

He secretly calculated, when the news of the death of the two people came back, there might still be a way to persuade the Empress Dowager to be suspicious - it is possible that the Duke of Wei Guo did not think about it and acted in a hurry, seeing the incident, the murderer confessed to Li and Zhang, and while arranging to extinguish the mouth, he asked the princess of Chu to exonerate Yan Tingyi, so as to prove his innocence, but this cannot be said by him himself, he needs a person trusted by the Empress Dowager, who is the right person to find?

The Son of Heaven has not yet turned defeat into victory, and the eldest princess has fallen into the well again-

"Fifth sister-in-law, I came uninvited today, I never thought that someone would have blood and filth, it was the death of an elder in my old family, they were originally rushing back to sue, last night to Xianghe, seeing that they could not enter the city, staying in a squire's house, who knew that in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard that the murderer next door had a murder, they hurriedly rushed to help......" Speaking of this, the eldest princess paused slightly, and glanced at the Son of Heaven who was quite uneasy: "Coincidentally, the people who were almost killed were Li Gui and Zhang Minghe, and my old department was originally a military general, and took a lot of subordinates, dealing with a few murderers, one did not let go, because he asked Deligui to be the in-law of my country's government, and did not report to the official, but escorted the two of them all the way back to Beijing, I also knew that they were involved in the murder this time, and immediately let Jing'er send them to the criminal department, as well as the gang of gangsters who failed to kill, were also tied up to Lu Shangshu. ”

Emperor:!!!

Now he no longer has the heart to think about who to find as a lobbyist.

"I secretly suspect that this fact is very strange, so I want to discuss it with my fifth sister-in-law, but I don't know that it is such a coincidence, and I am actually catching up with someone to blame the plot."

The Empress Dowager would not think that there was such a coincidence, but at this time she didn't intend to pay attention to the details, and only smiled coldly: "It's okay, since Ligui and Zhang Minghe have been brought to justice, I will order them to come to Ci'an Palace, and the mourning family will have to find out whether they plan to kill people and blame them." ”
