After coming out of prison, Xiao Junjue went straight to the Dali Temple Mansion, "Take the file of the murder of the old lady Rong of the Ronghou Mansion to this king." β
Shaoqing of Dali Temple pondered in Qiushui, lowered his head and said: "There is a decree in the saint, His Royal Highness the King of Chu shall not interfere in this case, and the official shall not do it." β
Nighthawk raised his sword, "Let you take it, what so much nonsense, don't move out of the saint to scare us!"
"Nighthawk must not be presumptuous!" Xiao Junjue ordered him.
Nighthawk was unwilling, and said in a heavy voice: "Lord Wang!"
Xiao Junjue frowned, "Put it down!"
Nighthawk gritted his teeth and reluctantly lowered his sword.
Yu Qiushui was also helpless, he bowed his hand to Xiao Junjue, "Please forgive me, the lower officials are also acting on orders." This case involves the princess, and in order to avoid suspicion, the prince checked the case file, which was really inappropriate. β
Dali Siqing is also because of the relationship with the protector of the country, Emperor Xiaojing ordered not to let him be in charge of the case, and now this case is due to Qiushui is responsible.
"Don't worry, the lower officials will definitely find out about this case, if the princess is not the murderer, the lower officials will never wronged her. β
Yu Qiushui's reputation in officialdom is good, and the cases he has ever handled have never been wronged, and Xiao Junjue has a good impression of him.
After pondering for a while, Xiao Junjue said: "If there is any difficulty in the investigation process, just ask the Chu Wangfu for help." β
"Yes, definitely. β
Out of the gate of Dali Temple, Nighthawk said: "Lord, don't you care about the princess? What can Dali Temple find out, how can we expect them?"
"Of course you can't leave it alone. Xiao Junjue stopped and glanced back at him, "If you don't let us investigate openly, we will investigate secretly." The king didn't believe it, and there was no evidence left for the murderer to kill someone. β
Nighthawk nodded, then frowned again, "By the way, the maid who testified to the princess that day died yesterday." β
"Dead? How did you die?"
"The specific reason is unknown, but the Ronghou Mansion said that it was a stumbling overboard. β
"Falling into the water again?" Xiao Junjue condensed with a smile, "How bad is the feng shui of the Ronghou Mansion, there are always people falling into the water." β
"Does the prince meanβ" Nighthawk's eyes widened, "Someone killed someone?"
"You have been with this king for so long, is it that your brain is getting worse and worse, and you can't see such obvious things?"
"My subordinates have been anxious about the princess these days, and their minds are clouded, and they can't turn anything around. Nighthawk was annoyed, "I should have caught her if I had known I, and maybe I could have brought out someone to kill her." Nighthawk snapped his head.
"Thank you for not doing this, otherwise if she died in your hands, she would not be able to wash it away by jumping into the Yellow River. Xiao Junjue narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking deeply about what Rong Zhao had just said in prison.
Nighthawk changed his words and said, "The night owl said that the prince was assassinated, but he was injured?"
Xiao Junjue visited Yuzhou for Emperor Xiaojing this time, but when he left, a group of assassins suddenly broke in, although he was not injured, but Yuzhou Taishou, who gave him a ride, died in vain.
"This king is fine. Xiao Junjue came back to her senses and rode over to meet the night owl. The night owl dismounted and said, "Lord Wang, the assassin who caught him confessed that he was obeyed by the young master Jiang of the Changsheng Bo Mansion. β
Nighthawk was startled, "Jiang Bojian? Jiang Bojian is now a person from King Jin." He suddenly looked at Xiao Junjue, "Could it be that he assassinated the prince on the order of the King of Jin?"
Nighthawk was furious, "It must be him! He is despicable! The prince must tell the Holy Lord about this." β
"It won't be King Jin!" Xiao Junjue was sure, "If something happens to me at this time, everyone will think of him." He wants to make a good name in everything he does, and he won't do anything that is not good for his reputation. β
The twist in Xiao Junjue's heart was unfolding little by little, "Although Jiang Bojian is crippled now, he is scheming, with his mind, he will not do such a thing." This king was assassinated, and everyone first thought that it was the king of Jin who did it, and he should have thought that everyone was in front of him, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't have done this. β
The night owl pondered for a moment and said, "But he did it, and if the assassination was successful, the saint must suspect that it was the King of Jin, and if he didn't succeed, he would also suspect the King of Jin." In fact, when the subordinates were in trouble, the first thing they thought of was King Jin. β
When two tigers fight, and one side dies, others will inevitably think that the other party did it.
"King Jin is not so stupid, and Jiang Bojian is not so stupid. Xiao Junjue said.
"Then why did Jiang Bojian do this?" the night owl asked, slowly, he had a bold guess in his heart, and his eyes lit up instantly.
Xiao Junjue looked at him, "Do you have any ideas?"
The night owl said: "Some people want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, watching the prince and the prince fight, just like the king of Jin and the abolished prince fighting." β
"Provoking this king and the king of Jin?" Xiao Junjue calmed down, "If that's the case, Jiang Bojian is not the person of the king of Jin." β
Nighthawk and Nightowl looked at each other, then at him.
Then why did Jiang Bojian assassinate the prince?
Back in the Chu Palace, Xiao Junjue locked himself in the study, now the whole thing is too complicated and messy, he needs to sort it out.
He spread out the whole thing, every detail of everything was depicted on a piece of paper, and looking at that piece of paper, he slowly became enlightened.
Two days later, following the murder of the old lady of the Ronghou Mansion, another major event occurred. The unknown Ding family was wiped out overnight.
If it was before, in a place like Changge City, a small Ding family, no one would know about it. But during this time, the family was in the limelight, the girl of the family died, and it was said that the princess of Chu was forced to die with a few words, and the coffin was placed at the gate of the Chu Palace. Another point, the old lady who died in the Ronghou Mansion was the aunt and grandmother of the Ding family.
Everyone thought that this was the king of Chu in order to vent his anger, so he killed the Ding family, but after a check by the Criminal Department and the Dali Temple, it pointed to the Changsheng Bofu.
There are no traces of struggle on each corpse of the Ding family, only the heart part, an arrow pierces the heart, the killer's technique is quite clean and neat, and such a neat technique can only be done by the Jiang family's rampage swordsmanship.
To say that Changsheng Bofu has no relationship with the Ding family at all, but why should the Ding family be wiped out?
And in this Dali Temple's audit of the murder of the old lady of the Ronghou Mansion, new flaws were found.
In Mrs. Rong's Heng Du Zhai, there is a place that is ignored by everyone. In Mrs. Rong's inner chamber there was a back window, which hardly opened.
But later the investigators found that the window had obvious traces of opening, and not only that, but they also found that there was a series of footprints behind the window that had not been opened for many years.
Because it had rained a day before the incident and the land was muddy, even the murderer didn't care that he would leave such important evidence behind when he fled.
The footprints were one deep and one shallow, and they were clearly left by a lame man.
And that day in the Ronghou Mansion, there was only one person with a lame leg, and that was Jiang Bojian.
But this is just speculation, there is no conclusive evidence, and no one dares to search a military mansion because of speculation without the will of the Holy Lord.
But because of the Ding family's annihilation, there was an opportunity, and the Criminal Department of Dali Temple combined the two cases together to investigate the Ding family's annihilation case on the surface, but on the other hand, it was also to find evidence of Jiang Bojian's murder.
They found the shoes he was wearing that day in Jiang Bojian's room, and compared them with the shoe prints left at the scene, they were exactly the same.
And because the old lady loves flowers and is willing to smell them, there are all kinds of flowers planted under the windows all around. Maybe the old lady has a spirit in the sky, and he happened to have a petal on his shoe.
The flower is a drunken hibiscus, white in the morning, pink in the afternoon, red in the evening, and the color of that petal happens to be pink, which means that Jiang Bojian once walked through the window of the old lady's room at noon that day, which happened to be the time of the old lady's death.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, Jiang Bojian was imprisoned, although he kept shouting injustice, he couldn't resist being betrayed.
The maid who served tea and pastries to Rong Zhao on the same day confessed, and on the same day, she was ordered by the third aunt to put ecstasy in the tea of the sixth lady.
Her confession completely clarified Rong Zhao and brought the case to the surface.
As for the maid who fell into the water, she didn't have to think about it to know that she was bribed by Jiang Bojian, overheard Rong Zhao and Rong Yao's jokes, and then Jiang Bojian drew a scoop according to the gourd, and asked her to steal a dagger from Rong Zhao, and killed the old lady with this dagger belonging to Rong Zhao, and got the unconscious Rong Zhao to the inner room, causing everyone to see it. When the time comes, the maid will stand up and testify and frame Rong Zhao.
And why he did it is another wave. A few days ago, Changsheng Bofu and Jin Wangfu had close contacts, and in the eyes of everyone, Changsheng Bofu was already on the side of King Jin.
Now the king of Chu is in the limelight, and the king of Jin is also faintly inferior compared to it, especially this time to visit the place, which was done by the king of Jin before, but now it has been replaced by the king of Chu. Obviously, the Holy Lord now values the King of Chu even more.
This is very unfavorable to King Jin.
The king of Chu has no foundation in the court, and if he does, it is just some inextricable relationships brought to him by the princess of Chu. These inextricable threads, although they are inconspicuous, and they have not expressed their stance on the side of the King of Chu, but if they really have this heart, then the power of the King of Chu will not be able to stop it.
Therefore, it is necessary to cut off the king of Chu before his wings are fledgling, and the best way is to cut off the princess of Chu.
A dispute between the ladies of the house suddenly turned into a dispute in the court, and the princess of Chu was accused of being a murderer before, but now she has become a victim of a power dispute, which makes the people cry out that they can't play without a little brain.
As for the Ding family, why they were wiped out, in some windy speculations, it evolved into the Ding family and Jiang Bojian uniting to frame the princess of Chu, and finally Jiang Bojian killed people and wiped out their whole family.
Who asked them to see Mrs. Rong so well at the time point, if they hadn't colluded in advance, how could it be precisely that point in time that people saw the illusion of Princess Chu's murder.
