Hearing this, the guard stood in front of him and bowed his head and said respectfully: "The subordinates are not very clear, but I heard from the people outside that the Duke of Jin took a maid to Jingzhao Mansion and sued the county lord of Qinghe for poisoning Mrs. Wei Guo, and then Yin Liu Wei of the Jingfu asked the county lord of Qinghe to invite him to the public court, and then the county lord of Qinghe also brought a maid over, and the maid brought by the Duke of Jin was speechless, and Lord Liu suppressed the matter and said that he would hand it over to the criminal department to try the case. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Huaijin's brows furrowed even deeper, and there was a coldness in his eyes.

Beifeng has followed him for so long, and he has never seen Shi Ziye look like this, and he has never seen Shi Ziye get angry because of a woman.

At this moment, I was puzzled in my heart, but I didn't dare to speak.

Listening to Xiao Huaijin's voice, he said with a hint of coldness: "They really don't force her to death, they won't give up!"

Hearing this, Beifeng couldn't help but ask, "Lord Shizi, what should we do now?"

Just looked at Xiao Huaijin and looked at himself: "Find a way to send this news to Qin Huai, now it's not convenient for us to act like this in the capital, let him do it." ”

Hearing this, Beifeng nodded: "But if the eldest prince of Qin doesn't care what, what should he do?"

"He won't leave it alone. Xiao Huaijin answered, and then the look in his eyes became deeper.

As soon as he remembered the scene when Qin Huai grabbed Hua Zhen's hand in the Zhixiang Garden that day, his mood was inexplicably a little gloomy.

Although he didn't have much contact with Hua Zhen, it was only a few times, and it was all because of calculation.

But when he saw Qin Huai talking to her like that, Xiao Huaijin himself didn't know why there was such a big reaction in his heart, it seemed that he was a little apprehensive because of Qin Huai.

Thinking of Hua Zhen's calm and calm appearance on weekdays, Xiao Huaijin couldn't help but sigh: "She is a rare woman, it is really a pity that she is so calculating." ”

Beifeng listened to this clueless word, and was a little incomprehensible.

Watching the guards leave, he remembered: "Lord Shizi, yesterday my subordinates saw Jiang Fu, the maidservant beside the county lord of Qinghe, go to Tianxianglou and Guangjitang. Listening to the news given by our people, it seems that the county lord asked her to find a house in Beicheng, and it seems that the county lord has chosen another mansion and is preparing to move out. ”

Listening to Beifeng's words, a hint of inquiry suddenly rose in Xiao Huaijin's eyes: "She wants to move out?"

"It seems like this. The north wind responded respectfully.

Hearing this, a smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Huaijin's mouth, and the smile made people feel extraordinarily gentle: "The Duke of Wei Mansion is in Beicheng, and she is afraid that she is just looking for a house closer to the Duke of Wei's Mansion." The mansion of the Duke of Wei is to the west, and there is no mansion nearby that is now being shot, you go to inquire tomorrow, if she really wants to find a house near the Duke of Wei, she will go to Fangya to hang out Ming Yuexuan. ”

Beifeng was stunned when he heard this: "Lord Shizi, Mingyue Xuan is our foothold in the capital, if it hangs out, then where should they live when they go to the capital?"

"Lingjun came to Beijing to make peace, and the emperor will naturally choose a courtyard to be the palace, so you don't need to care too much. I've decided, just do what I tell you to do. I also sent someone to the criminal department to keep an eye on the news, and if there is anything, come back and tell me as soon as possible. Xiao Huaijin's face was filled with a hint of coldness.

Beifeng didn't dare to say anything, so he could only nod and retreat respectfully.

Qin Huai was about to go out, when he listened to the discussion in the gatehouse outside, he didn't care about it, but when he heard Hua Zhen's name, he couldn't help but pause.

Even if I wanted not to ask her about it, my heart was not in control.

Seeing Qin Huai, the two concierges quickly stopped their mouths and said respectfully, "The eldest prince." ”

Hearing this, Qin Huai nodded, with a hint of coldness on his face: "What were you talking about just now?"

Hearing this, the porters glanced at each other, and then they reacted: "Last night, the county lord of Qinghe poisoned Mrs. Jin Guo with arsenic, and now she has been announced by Jin Guo to the Criminal Department, and this matter has spread in the capital this morning, and no one knows whether it is true or false, only that she is now in the Criminal Department." ”

"But really?" Hearing that Hua Hao had poisoned Mrs. Shen, Qin Huai only felt a sudden suffocation in his heart, and even his complexion changed.

He didn't believe that Hua Zhen would do such a thing, and the first reaction in his mind was that they were calculating Hua Zhen.

I only thought that a woman went to the criminal department, no matter whether she killed someone in the end or not, the reputation of the woman who passed the court would be damaged.

It was as if a hand was holding my heart tightly.

The porter on the side was stunned, and he didn't know what to do for a while, so he stood in place and responded tremblingly: "The little one doesn't know, or I just heard what the passer-by said." ”

Hearing this, Qin Huai glanced at the porter and walked straight outside.

The second son of the Qin family who came out, Qin Nan couldn't help but ask when he saw this: "What's wrong with the eldest brother, looking so flustered?"

Hearing this, the porter looked at Qin Nan and said in a low voice: "The little one doesn't know, it's just that when the eldest prince passed by just now, he just heard the little gossip, and the county lord of Qinghe poisoned Mrs. Jin last night, and that's it." ”

Hearing this, Qin Nan's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and there was a hint of danger in his eyes: "I didn't expect that this Qinghe County Lord would make you so infatuated, Qin Huai, Qin Huai, you are really hopeless." ”

The porter looked at Qin Nan's face, and they all lowered their heads in fright, and they didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere.

In the side hall of Jingzhao Mansion, Liu Wei hurriedly walked in, followed by a man with a saber at his waist, and respectfully saluted Shen Chongmao and Hua Zhen: "Duke of Jin, Lord of Qinghe County, this is Captain Zuo of the Criminal Department, and please follow Captain Zuo to the Criminal Department." ”

Hearing this, Shen Chongmao put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at Hua Zhen coldly, and walked outside with a flick of his sleeves.

Hua Zhen stood up, smiled at Liu Wei and Zuo Duwei, and blessed her body slightly, and then said softly: "I'm tired of Zuo Duwei leading the way." ”

"The county lord is polite. Hearing this, Captain Zuo of the Criminal Department was also much more polite, looking at Shen Chongmao's eyes a little colder, and walked out directly with Hua Zhen.

Liu Wei asked the officials of Jingzhao Mansion to escort Red Sleeves and Jiaoyue to the Dao Criminal Department.

Because the Criminal Department is not an idle place, those who watch the excitement can't look at the things inside.

Seeing Shen Chongmao and Hua Zhen enter the lobby of the Criminal Department, they could only guess outside.

Li Yu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, can also be regarded as an old minister of the Three Dynasties, when Shen Chongmao had not yet entered the office, Li Yu was already an official worshipper of the Criminal Department, and he had been the secretary of the Criminal Department for nearly 20 years.

What kind of thing has never been seen.

So when he heard that the county lord of Qinghe had killed Mrs. Jinguo, he didn't even frown, but just asked someone to bring them to the front of the hall.

Hua Zhen and Shen Chongmao went to the public court and saw Li Yu sitting on the top seat, wearing the iron face of the government and being selfless.

Immediately knelt down: "Hua Zhen greets Lord Shangshu." ”

After all, Shen Chongmao is a grandfather of the country, although he has been removed from his official position, but this title is still there, looking at Li Yu, he only feels that the two are comparable, so he just arches his hands and does not kneel.

Seeing this, Li Yu's face suddenly changed, and he looked at Shen Chongmao: "Why don't you kneel above the court?

Hearing this, Shen Chongmao's face turned cold, and he looked at Li Yu's ruthless appearance, so he could only kneel: "I've seen Lord Li." ”

"What are you two complaining about?" Li Yu looked at Shen Chongmao and knelt down, and then asked.

Hearing this, Shen Chongmao pointed at Hua Zhen and said: "She poisoned her own aunt and uncle in the hibiscus cake last night, and today I want to sue this unfilial disobedient son." ”

"Can Hua Zhen have such a thing?" Li Yu asked Hua Zhen on the side when he heard this.

Hua Zhen immediately changed to a aggrieved cry: "Lord Qiyu Shangshu has no such matter, my aunt and Zhen'er have no grievances, why did Zhen'er do such a thing that lost her conscience." Uncle only relied on the words of a maid, he framed Zhen'er for poisoning her aunt, how can a maid's words close the case, and without real evidence, he defiled me and killed my aunt, please make the decision for me. ”

Hua Zhen knelt on the ground as she spoke, her head lying on the ground, her body trembling slightly, looking like she was extremely sad and sad.

Even if you ask anyone to see it, you can't help but feel distressed.

Shen Chongmao was furious when he saw this: "Lord Li, don't be deceived by her nonsense, she has always been extremely thoughtful and used to telling lies! Since she killed someone, I have someone to testify!"

Hearing this, Li Yu looked at Shen Chongmao and frowned slightly.

At this moment, above the court, Shen Chongmao is so domineering, and Hua Zhen is lying on the ground very weak, no one can believe that such a woman will poison her aunt.

It's just above the court, and the verdict of the case cannot be affected by compassion.

Li Yu immediately said coldly: "Since you have a witness, then ask someone to come up." ”

I had my own yacha to bring up the red sleeves and the bright moon.

Although Red Sleeves and Bright Moon were both locked up elsewhere, they didn't suffer any grievances, and in such a short period of time, Jingzhao Mansion naturally didn't dare to do anything to them.

As soon as she entered the door and saw Hua Zhen kneeling on the ground, Jiaoyue only felt very distressed.

The Shen family is really hateful, first plotting to take the life of their county lord, and then calculating, once or twice, it fails, and now they want to frame her for murder.

The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I felt, and tears fell.

On the other hand, Red Sleeves thought about it because he was in prison, and the look on his face at this moment was very firm.

Seeing Shen Chongmao standing next to him, he immediately knelt on the ground respectfully: "The slave has seen the adult." ”

Hearing this, Li Yu asked Xiang Hongsleeve: "The Duke of Jin said that you saw the county lord of Qinghe poison Mrs. Jin?"

Hearing this, Red Sleeves nodded in response: "Yes, the hibiscus cake with arsenic was given to the slave by the maid Jiaoyue next to the county lord, and let the slave and maid give it to Mrs. Jin Guo under the pretense of the maid's wishful hand by the old lady's side." The lady ate the plate of hibiscus cake and was poisoned. ”

"Well, this official asked you when this incident happened, and you recruited it from the truth. Li Yu looked at the red sleeves and frowned slightly.
