Chapter 190: Frightened
"Oh?" Feng Yuan was puzzled.
Wu Jinliang handed the confession to Feng Yuan: "That person confessed that he came to kill Peng's son on the order of the Chengguo Mansion, and also said that the poison was originally given to Peng's son, but it turned out to be wrong and caused the people in the yamen to be poisoned by mistake, but I think that person is lying nine times out of ten." ”
Seeing Feng Yuan looking down at his confession, he pondered and said:
"How can the son of the Peng family say that it is also Zheng Hongan's blood, even if Cheng Guogong is ruthless, it is impossible to kill them all, and there are more than ten poisoned people in the yamen alone, and several of them died directly, how can this poison look like it is not as simple as eating it by mistake."
The confession was only written in detail, and Ma Cheng's net worth background was written out even if he was bribed and poisoned.
After reading it, Feng Yuan folded the paper and put it in his sleeve: "Wu Shangshu thinks that someone framed the Chengguo Mansion?" ”
Wu Jinliang hesitated for a moment before saying, "I don't know if it's framed or not, but that Ma Cheng definitely didn't tell the truth." I was hesitating whether to go to see Cheng Guogong or go to the palace to see His Majesty to report the matter, but I didn't think that Lord Feng would come. ”
Feng Yuan asked, "Where is Ma Cheng now?" ”
Wu Jinliang said: "It's in the prison of the Criminal Department." ”
Feng Yuan said directly: "Please ask Wu Shangshu to hand him over to me, I will take him back to the Criminal Division to sit down, no matter how hard the bones are, he will definitely be able to speak." ”
When Wu Jinliang heard the name of the "Criminal Division", his heart suddenly became furious.
The criminal division under the control of Jin Linwei has always had the "good reputation" of the living entering and the dead leaving, but few of those who were caught by Jin Linwei on charges of crime could come out alive, and the corpses that were carried out were not missing, and almost all of them died miserably.
Wu Jinliang once went to the Criminal Division to watch because of a case, and that interrogation simply left a shadow in his heart, but anyone who entered the Criminal Division, no matter how hard the bones were, could be polished flat, with their methods, there was no one in the criminal department in the world who couldn't ask it.
"It's naturally good that Lord Feng is willing to take over, I'm in a hurry, but you've helped me a lot." Wu Jinliang squeezed out a smile full of gratitude, "That Peng's son ......"
"Give it to me and take it away, and when the case is concluded, I will have someone send it to the Zheng family, and it will save Wu Shangshu trouble."
Feng Yuan came to the door in person, and this matter was no longer something that the Criminal Department could manage.
Wu Jinliang sensed that something was wrong and didn't want to provoke the fire, so he hurriedly agreed to come down and let someone bring Ma Cheng and Peng's son over.
By the time they came, Ma Cheng had already changed his clothes, his hair was not as messy as before after being groomed, and most of the blood and scars left by the torture were also covered, except for a few wounds on his hands, feet and face.
When Wu Jinliang sent people over, he was still worried about Feng Yuan's questioning about the execution, who knew that Feng Yuan didn't seem to see it at all, and with a wave of his hand, someone stepped forward to pick up the frightened child, and even gagged Ma Cheng and escorted him down.
Feng Yuan is very kind, compared to the menacing Jin Linwei behind him, he is very good at talking.
I called someone from the criminal department who knew about it to come and ask about it, and asked him to take away the results of the autopsy and the leftover food mixed with poison.
Feng Yuan got up directly and said: "I'm troublesome with Wu Shangshu today, the next thing Jin Linwei will take over, I will ask someone to inquire about it from the Chengguo Mansion, and if there is anything next, I have to ask Wu Shangshu and the ...... of the Criminal Department."
"Even if Lord Feng asks people to ask, this official will definitely know everything." Wu Jinliang naturally wouldn't have swept Feng Yuan's face.
A slight smile appeared on Feng Yuan's face.
Jin Linwei's people came and went quickly, Feng Yuan took someone and asked him, and then led the person to leave directly.
After he left, Xu Dai patted his chest with a little weakness, God knows that when Jin Linwei's people broke in just now, he thought that he had bumped into something to rob his family and exterminate the clan, and the posture was like he was going to arrest everyone in the criminal department, but fortunately, it was nothing serious.
After pouring two cups of tea to ease up, Xu Dai said: "This Feng Yuan looks quite kind, not at all like the ferocity that those people say." ”
Wu Jinliang sneered: "That's when you haven't seen him get angry." ”
Who is Feng Yuan?
Half-castrate, entering the palace on an errand, if he didn't have some means and ruthlessness in just a few years, just relying on kindness and harmony with others, he couldn't get to his current position.
Is the name of the 9,000-year-old called for nothing?
Wu Jin's conscience was very jealous of this first eunuch of the inner court, who was the most trusted person around Emperor Tianqing, and was in charge of the group of royal owls of Jinlinwei.
The court officials who folded in his hands have never been less, so even if he is a scholar, Wu Jinliang will never want to offend him easily, and he is even more stunned when he looks at him.
Xu Dai stood aside and saw Wu Jinliang's eyebrows locked deeply, and he couldn't help but ask: "My lord, this poisoning matter has been transferred to Jin Linwei, why are you worried about Feng Yuan and them going to investigate?" ”
Wu Jinliang pursed his lips: "That's not what I'm worried about. ”
Xu Dai was puzzled.
Wu Jinliang frowned and looked at him: "You don't want to think about it, how long has it been since the matter of the Criminal Department happened, how did Your Majesty know the news?" Even if someone returns first, but this matter has not reached the point of using Jin Linwei, not to mention that it is better to let Feng Yuan personally bring someone to investigate, you don't think there is anything wrong? ”
Xu Dai also reacted when he heard this, in the final analysis, this matter is their own criminal department, if they can't find out and use Jinlinwei after returning to the court, forget it, how can they not check Jinlinwei and come to the door by themselves?
Wu Jinliang always felt that something was abnormal, and he must be a demon: "You go on, tell the people in the yamen to be careful these days, don't go wrong again." ”
"Ma Cheng's matter should continue to be investigated, and the one who committed suicide should find out his identity. Those who were poisoned today are well settled, and those who unfortunately die will also send someone to their homes to inform them, and the bereavement money that should be given will be given, and remember to calm people down and not make any trouble. ”
Xu Dai hurriedly nodded: "Yes, I'll explain." ”
……
After Ma Cheng was brought back to the Criminal Division by Jin Linwei, he was recruited in less than an hour.
Jin Linwei's people immediately went out of the horse, and before it was dark, they found out Ma Cheng's bottom line, and also found out that Ma Cheng had a good girl in Yunxiang Building, and had been in and out of Yunxiang Building several times before he started, and when he left Yunxiang Building for the last time, he got a large sum of money to redeem the girl.
After Feng Yuan sent this result into the palace, the four princes, who were originally looking forward to the prince's bad luck because of the big joke in the Chengguo Mansion, and the people who were looking forward to the prince's accident with the criminal department, were happily hiding in the mansion and eating melon seeds to watch the excitement, waiting for people to pick up the cheap The four princes were recruited into the palace overnight.
As soon as he entered the imperial study, as soon as he called "Father", a teacup smashed straight towards the head of the fourth prince.
"Bang!"
Blood gushed out of the four princes' foreheads, and they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground as soon as their legs went weak.
