In Dali Temple, Chen Shilang was locked up with Chen Jinyu.

The Chen family had no female dependents, and it was inconvenient for Jiang Fu to follow Chen Jian'an to the men's prison, so she waited outside.

Chen Jian'an went in for a long time, Jiang Fu sat on the chair that the jailer brought her, rubbing her nails that had begun to grow back, and her eyes looked at the entrance of the prison, and the expression in her eyes was obscure.

When Chen Jian'an came out, she immediately greeted her.

"How's it going, are they okay? Is there any clue to you? ”

Jiang Fu guessed Chen Jian'an's life experience early on, although Yan Mingxi was intentionally framed in this matter, but in the transfer of the first emperor's young son, the Chen family is indeed not innocent.

Jiang Guangyao wanted to take Chen Shilang's family for a few days, and the big reason was that he was afraid that if he continued to track down, Chen Jian'an's identity would be pulled out, and he would not be able to escape death at that time.

Chen Jian'an nodded.

"Thanks to my father-in-law, the Ministry of Punishment didn't torture my father and brother much.

His father said that he had seen Yan Mingxi's recital, and the evidence presented to His Majesty stated that the youngest son of the first emperor was born in the last years of the previous dynasty, the same age as the eldest brother.

But in fact, no one can be sure how old the young son of the first emperor is, which may become a breakthrough for us to overturn the case.

No one knows when the concubine gave birth to the child, if we can investigate the real age of the child, as long as there is a difference in age from the eldest brother, we can prove the innocence of the Chen family. ”

It's a trick, but it's not easy to investigate.

Not to mention that the concubine kept the child a secret, and no one in the palace knew about it, let's just say that the only one who knew the inside story was already three feet high.

Yan Mingxi forged a confession from a former emperor's palace person, although this confession was false, but most of the people in the palace were from Xichang, and it was difficult for Chen Jian'an to find someone to overturn the testimony under Xichang's hands.

"Let's go, let's go and get the dossier."

After Chen Jian'an finished speaking, he took Jiang Fu to take the study room of Dali Temple, where the archives were stored.

Dali Temple directly belongs to His Majesty, but because it often has to cooperate with the East Factory to try cases, although it is not mixed with the power of the East and West Second Factory, it usually has to give the East Factory a few thin noodles.

The people in the officialdom are the most clear, and when they know that there will be a lot of cooperation in the future, who can be without fault if they are not saints? Who can guarantee that they will work without mistakes for the rest of their lives?

I gave you convenience this time, and you will naturally make it convenient for me next time.

Shaoqing of Dali Temple very happily found out the file they wanted and put it on the bookcase.

"Your Excellency, please take a look, these are the files that have been preserved after the case has been concluded, as well as the closing statement approved by His Majesty Zhu.

However······ This case was supervised by His Majesty in the West Factory, and Wechen heard that there was still some evidence taken away by His Majesty at that time, and those that have not been sent to Dali Temple for filing, as far as Wechen knows, most of the evidence that was taken away was testimony, and it was estimated that there could be three or five pieces of paper. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Fu walked to the table, stretched out his hand and flipped through the book bound with the testimony, read it hastily, looked up and said to Chen Jian'an:

"The testimony of the palace maid who testifies that the eldest brother is the same age as the young son of the first emperor is not there, and the testimony that she said that the eldest brother has the same birthmark on his shoulder as the child is not there."

These news were known to the people who participated in the interrogation that day, and they were not secrets, even if the emperor took away the file as evidence, he would be able to know about it by asking Jiang Fu a little.

Therefore, the emperor obviously did not take the testimony to hide people's eyes, the only possibility that Jiang Fu could guess was that the emperor did not fully believe the testimony of the palace maid, so he took it back and pondered it repeatedly.

If Chen Jinyu was really killed by mistake, he would always continue to look for his half-brother who made him sleep.

Chen Jian'an stared at the testimony book for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled.

"There is Lord Lao, and I also trouble the Lord to help contact the aunt who testified in the palace, and the lower official has some questions that he wants to ask her face-to-face."

Shaoqing of Dali Temple nodded again and again.

"The interrogation of witnesses is due, Rong Weichen handed a post to the palace, and told the emperor to bring people over."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went out to send someone into the palace, Chen Jian'an also lowered the hem and sat on the chair and began to look through it, but Jiang Fu walked to the bookshelf, found the shelf from twenty years ago according to the time, and stopped in front as if looking for something.

Chen Jian'an checked the case record book in detail, which said that Yan Mingxi accused the Chen family of harboring criminals with the intention of confusing the royal bloodline.

According to Yan Mingxi, twenty-four years ago, after the concubines of the first emperor were beaten into the cold palace, they were unwilling to be lonely and seduce the guards, and gave birth to a child with the two guards, and secretly hid the child in the cold palace to raise them until they were three years old.

When the first emperor died when he was three years old, the concubine wanted to accompany the first emperor to be buried according to the scale, so she handed over the child to her henchman Xu Gonggong and asked him to secretly send him out of the palace.

Gonggong Xu put the child in the big boss of Tiger Village, and the big boss secretly asked people to send the child to Jiangnan.

And Jiangnan happened to be Mrs. Chen's mother's house, Yan Mingxi insisted that the child was sent to Mrs. Chen, and then pretended to be the child she gave birth to in Jiangnan, and then brought it back to the capital.

The reason why he dared to speculate like this was all because the two children of the Chen family, Chen Jinyu and Chen Jian'an, were both born in Jiangnan.

Mrs. Chen's health is not good, and she has lived at her mother's house for two of the three years to recuperate.

The difference between the two is that Chen Jian'an was taken back to the capital to raise him not long after he was born, and he never left the capital since.

However, Chen Jinyu often followed her mother when she was a child, and was sent away by her father to study after her mother's death, and the days she stayed in the capital were numbered.

This is what makes the emperor very suspicious of him.

If it weren't for the ghosts in his heart, there were not many famous teachers and Confucians in the capital, so why bother sending his son to study outside, and he wouldn't even see each other for a few years?

Chen Jian'an closed the file and rubbed his temples, thinking that he would send someone to Jiangnan first to find the stable woman who delivered his mother back then.

He remembered that his father had said before that the eldest brother was sent back to Jiangnan for the sake of his mother's body after his mother was diagnosed with a happy pulse.

Then she gave birth to a child under the care of a foreign family, but the eldest brother was born with a weak body and couldn't withstand the fatigue of returning to Beijing, so he carefully recuperated in Jiangnan for three years, and his body was harder.

Just in time for the death of the first emperor, he followed his mother back to the capital.

And it was this year that Mrs. Chen once again announced that she was pregnant and wanted to go to Jiangnan to raise a baby, and two years later she hugged herself back.

But at that time, the house said that the second young master was good-looking, taller than children of the same age, and in the end, it was the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River······

"Found it!"

Chen Jian'an's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Jiang Fu's exclamation, and he looked up.

I saw Jiang Fu holding a yellowed and old dossier in his hand, and raised his hand to himself with his eyebrows fluttering.
