Chapter 114: Rumors are rife with frightened birds

"Have you heard of the case of Lu An, the top brand of the Light Smoke Pavilion?

Since being taken over by the Criminal Department, many people have died in a row! ”

"Yes, even the two informants and their families are dead, how can this case be tried?"

"Your news is still too backward, the latest news, not only the Dali Temple Prison Cheng and the four jailers are dead, but even the Dali Temple Zhenghe Temple and their families are dead!"

"Holy! Ruthless! Isn't this murder? ”

"Of course! A discerning person can see at a glance that Lu An was wronged.

However, there must be a bigger figure behind this matter, otherwise, Dali Temple is a member of the five grades of the imperial court, how can it be said that death is death, and even the whole family has not been spared? ”

"Yes, in this way, the trial and review officials are dead, and even if the criminal department wants to investigate, there is no way to investigate!"

In the streets and alleys of the capital, teahouses and restaurants, similar gossip is spread everywhere.

As these people rumored, every time the Criminal Department wants to investigate an official involved in the case in Dali Temple, that official and his family will inevitably die instantly!

This put Yusuke Shangshu of the Criminal Department in a predicament, and the case was also shelved.

However, in Tianxiang Building, when the second prince and a group of officials got the news, they breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It's okay now, Dali Temple Cheng Zhengtong is in charge of the trial, and now even his line is broken, even if the old man of Youjie has the ability, I'm afraid there is no way to do it now."

Li Chen, the secretary of Dali Temple, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

For the past two days, for the yamen of Dali Temple, Yusuke has been like a life-urging ghost.

Every time the name of an official is called, one person commits suicide or dies a tragic death.

Li Chen was really worried, one day Yusuke went crazy and called his name, it would be miserable.

Fortunately, Dali Temple Cheng is the last person in charge of the Lu An case in direct contact, otherwise, not only him, but also Shaoqing of Dali Temple, I am afraid that the entire Dali Temple officials from top to bottom will be finished!

"Master Li doesn't have to worry." The second prince, Xia Chun, calmly reassured.

"That's right." Zhao You, the prime minister on the side, also chimed in, "After all, there are only four days left before the seven-day deadline given by His Majesty to Old Horseman Yousuke, and after four days, if there is no result-"

However, at this moment, I saw the door of the private room open, and a eunuch suddenly broke in.

"Your Highness, there are rumors outside again!"

"Huh?" Xia Chun frowned, "What else will happen, don't be nervous, say it slowly." ”

"Yes."

The eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued, "It is rumored among the people outside that the people behind the Lu An case have adopted the method of killing people and killing people, intending to cover up the truth.

But there are no impermeable walls.

What's more, if you want to promote the case of slandering Lu An, only a few small officials in Dali Temple can't do it at all, and there must be bigger people involved!

And the person behind the curtain will never be able to kill all those who know the truth!

As long as you miss someone, the person behind the curtain will inevitably appear!

For example, the six commentators who participated in the presiding trial of the temple, and the chief bookkeeper who was in charge of the trial record, etc., and even, even ......"

Speaking of this, the eunuch subconsciously looked at Li Chen, the secretary of Dali Temple.

Seeing this, Li Chen's heart shook violently, and the heart that he had just put down slammed again, "Your Highnessβ€”"

The more Xia Chun listened, the more ugly his face became.

waved his hand, "Master Li doesn't have to worry, this king will never abandon you!" ”

Li Chen breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

However, the next moment, Xia Chun ordered in a deep voice, "Gonggong Wu, you immediately go to Commander Sun and secretly investigate the comments and lords that the people on the street are talking about, oh, by the way, don't forget to take care of their families!" ”

"Yes, slave and maid go now."

In a simple word, all the officials here felt cold and swishing!

An hour later, Gonggong Wu turned back again.

"Your Highness, it's not a good thing!"

An opening sentence once again lifted the hearts of Xia Chun and others.

After the slave and maid found Commander Sun, Commander Sun immediately led people to visit around.

However, because there are more and more discussions among the people on the street, people are panicking.

Except for one commentator who was controlled in time, the remaining five commentators and the two main commentators, along with their families, are all missing!

Right now, Commander Sun is continuing to lead people to search for their whereabouts.

However, the situation may not be optimistic......"

"What?!" Xia Chun stood up suddenly, and then looked at Li Chen.

Li Chen hurriedly got up and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty has a good understanding of the details of those comments and the main book, and immediately investigate them personally, and they will definitely be found in the shortest possible time and handed over to Your Highness for disposal!" ”

"Good!" Xia Chun gritted his teeth, "Lord Li, this king believes in your ability, but if there is a little mistake, you should know what the consequences are......"

"Yes, the lower official understands, the lower official will do it!"

After speaking, Li Chen hurriedly ran out.

After returning to Dali Temple, Li Chen immediately called the two Shaoqing to his side, and strictly ordered them to investigate the whereabouts of the missing five Dali Temple commentators and the two masters as soon as possible.

After doing all this, Li Chen did not rest, but rushed back home as fast as he could.

"Madam, leave the capital quietly with our children immediately!"

"By the way, don't get anyone's attention!"

"It's best to dress up like an ordinary person, and only bring some gold and silver with you, and nothing else!"

"Don't ask why! Right away! Let's go! ”

After sending off his family, Li Chen returned to the official office again, as if nothing had happened, and continued to organize people to search inside and outside the capital with great fanfare.

searched for three days in a row, whether it was Xia Chun, the second prince, or Li Chen, the secretary of Dali Temple, all of them found nothing.

The five commentators who participated in the trial of the case in Dali Temple and the two main books who were responsible for recording were as if the world had evaporated.

This abnormal situation made the second prince Xia Chun, Li Chen and others even more flustered.

Seeing that the seven-day period given to You Jie by His Majesty the Emperor was approaching, these people could only secretly pray that there would be no trouble.

In the prison of the Criminal Department, Yusuke came to see Lu An again.

In the cell, Yusuke took out a pile of materials and shook it, a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Young man, your method is really useful, these are the materials written by the five commentators and the two masters of Dali Temple.

Including the trial records at that time, all the materials that the temple was inducing to confess to Pan Qing and Xiaohong Girl, as well as Mao San'er and Wang Cheng, who were instructed by Dali Siqing. ”

"What else?" Lu An continued to ask quietly.

As early as when he asked Mu Lingfeng and Lu Yuyan to spread those remarks in the capital, he had already expected these results.

Since Yusuke took over the review of the case, officials of Dali Temple have been killed one after another, and even their families have not been spared.

Coupled with the murderous remarks spread by Lu An, how can the remaining little people involved in the case not be frightened?

Therefore, long before the second prince made his move, those frightened birds had already taken their families into hiding.

Fortunately, those commentators and master Bo were just insignificant little people, which did not attract the attention of the second prince, otherwise, they would have died a long time ago!

However, he made such a big move, not only to cause those commentators to surrender in panic to protect themselves, but to attract the real big man behind the scenes-the second prince Xia Chun!

is not only for his personal revenge, but also for Pan Qing, Xiaohong, and even Lu Yuyan!

"As you wish." Yusuke sighed and pulled out a piece of paper from the materials.

"This is recorded by one of the masters, and the temple Cheng Zheng Tong once mentioned the instructions of the second prince.

However, in addition, other people's confession materials all point to Li Chen, the secretary of Dali Temple.

Tomorrow morning, the old man will present these materials to the Imperial Palace.

Young man, stay here for one night.

Tomorrow, the overall situation will be certain, and the old man will also be in the court.

When the time comes, the old man will have time to drink and chat with the little friend, hehe. ”

"The villain is also looking forward to that day, Lord You has worked hard."

Lu Anxin made up his mind, bowed down, and sent Yusuke away, while also quietly waiting for the result he was looking forward to tomorrow, and he could really get his wish!
