Chapter 369: Where is the suspicion?
The atmosphere in the room was solemn and condensed, and in the three-legged bronze leaky pot on the mahogany carved table in front of the window, the water droplets dripped down slowly, very regularly, making a "click" sound.
Wei Cang's voice was very hoarse: "The one who made the complaint was a personal guard of Gao Yang. He proved that Gao Yang was called away by Gongzi before the incident, saying that he had something important to discuss. He wanted to follow, but Gongzi said that Gao Yang was moved and sent him back to the house to wait, but he didn't expect to wait for Gao Yang's death again. ”
"If he alone testifies, it may be that his subordinates are indiscriminately biting in order to escape the guilt of dereliction of duty." Luo Qianhuai frowned and said, "Could it be that just such a sentence can arrest people indiscriminately?" Can the high-ranking magnates take the lives of the grass people? ”
Wei Cang then remembered that the lady Luo in front of him should not know the true identity of the son, and naturally he didn't know that he had been made a marquis, and he was no longer a grass people.
He hesitated, but still didn't dare to tell the truth. It is no longer appropriate to disobey the son's orders to find the eldest lady Luo, and if this identity is revealed, I am afraid that the son will be angry.
Of course, this kind of thing can't be hidden, but with a little investigation, Lady Fanluo will be able to know the truth immediately, as long as the truth is not heard from his mouth.
"There are witnesses on the side, and it's two waves." Wei Cang calmed down and continued to explain: "Among the sergeants who rushed to the scene first after the incident, the two who ran at the front claimed to have seen someone leaving in a hurry, dressed and similar to Gongzi. At that time, they didn't catch up with the people who were eager to save people, and they did fish out Gao Yang's body at the place where the person had stayed. ”
"In addition, a manservant from a family near the scene of the crime also stood up and claimed to have seen Childe and Gao Yang standing by the canal arguing, and then Childe pushed the person into the water."
The house was built on the edge of the ditch, and the manservant was inspecting the door in the courtyard when the sound of the dispute caught his attention, and he saw through the crack in the door. That is, because he and the testimony of those sergeants were consistent, and even the clothes of the prince that night were said to be the same, the Tingwei Mansion would arrest people overnight. ”
"What about your son?" Luo Qianhuai asked: "You said that he was not with Gao Yang anymore, there should be others around him to testify, right?" ”
Wei Cang was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Childe, for some reasons, there is no one else around recently. Including me, almost all the people around me have been transferred, and only one Weiying is left on the surface. ”
"What about the eagle?" Luo Qianhuai looked directly at him and asked.
"He is now a dumb servant guarding the door, he can't speak, and it's inconvenient for Gongzi to be by his side when he goes out, and after Gongzi was arrested, he was stared at by countless pairs of eyes, so he could only honestly stay in the house and couldn't do anything."
"So if you want me to help, don't say half hide and half hide." Luo Qianhuai said: "Who did your son offend? If you don't even want to explain this, then I can't do anything about it, and you can leave now. ”
Wei Cang had already guessed that he couldn't hide it, and when he heard this, he had completely given up the idea of the side, and simply shook out the identity and recent experience of Master Mo.
In the meantime, Luo Qianhuai has also participated in some things, and she fully understands the comparison between the two.
It turned out that Mo Gongzi's name was Yu Chu, and he was originally a dragon son and phoenix grandson, but during the Zhenghe period, the prince was falsely accused of rebellion, and the whole family was killed by his great-grandfather, including his two four or five-year-old brothers.
That is, when the biological mother was pregnant and was caught, the first emperor had found out that there were some doubts in the case of the prince, and he felt remorse, so he allowed her to give birth to Yu Chu in the official prison, and died in childbirth at that time.
Yu Chu has been imprisoned in the official prison since he was a child, and was cared for and cared for by Luan He, the court lieutenant and prison, and successfully grew up to the age of ten before he was remembered by the first emperor and moved to the court to raise him. Later, he encountered the power sent by the maternal Wei clan to protect him, so he had today.
"Although Gongzi was awarded the title of Marquis of Xiang because of the edict of the first emperor, His Majesty's disgust for him was about to come out, and as a last resort, Gongzi could only choose to retreat, donate a huge amount of money, live in a humble room, scatter servants, and just mix in the market every day, and dare not do anything out of the ordinary."
Wei Cang was indignant for his master, and his eyes were red when he said: "But even if they tolerate him like this, they still refuse to let him go, and they even design a frame-up to kill their son!" ”
"So, you should be able to guess who wants to deal with Childe. Could it be that Luo Qianhuai stretched out his hand and pointed upward.
"It's not Yu Zheng." Wei Cang shook his head, not feeling that there was anything wrong with calling the young emperor by his name: "According to the guess of his subordinates, it should be Shangguan Jin." ”
He is actually not Luo Qianhuai's subordinate, but at this moment, in front of her, he just calls himself this way, and he speaks extremely smoothly. Luo Qianhuai had something in his heart, but he didn't notice anything wrong.
Seeing Luo Qianhuai's puzzled look, he explained: "The assassination that Mrs. Luo encountered in Kangle County before was Shangguan Jin's handiwork. There is also Zhang Jianzong, who was also assigned by him, so he wanted to assassinate the son. ”
"There is no such thing as love and hatred for no reason." Luo Qianhuai asked: "Then Shangguan Jin, but what kind of grudge do you have with Gongzi's father and ancestor?" ”
Wei Cang gritted his teeth and said: "His brother climbed to Jiang Cheng back then, and was willing to be a pawn when framing the first prince, so he was killed by the first prince with Jiang Cheng, and he has always held a grudge to this day." ”
No wonder. Luo Qianhuai nodded: "Even if those people find someone to commit perjury, because the key evidence in this case is not reliable, it is not difficult to overturn it." ”
Wei Canghuo Ran looked up at her, and saw that Luo Qianhuai's expression was calm and calm, and he couldn't see half of the exaggerated words on his face alone.
Luo Qianhuai didn't mean to explain more to him: "It's just that the key to this matter is not in the case itself, but in other places." ”
She pointed to it again, and then said: "Your Majesty doesn't like Gongzi, naturally there will be people who speculate on their intentions, and then under the impetus of people with hearts, there is no wind and waves, and they have to put Gongzi to death." It's just that Gongzi should have a backhand in the court before, and I don't know how those people will apply, and it is up to Commander Wei and Gongzi to arrange it themselves. ”
When Wei Cang heard this, his face showed a solemn look: "Don't hide it from the eldest lady, before the palace gate opened this morning, Gao Yang's widowed mother, the eldest princess of Pingyang, had already put on her hair and feet, kneeling outside the palace gate and crying. Before her subordinates came, she was invited into the palace by His Majesty. I think it's just to appease her, and it must not be possible to handle it lightly, not to mention"
"What's more, Your Majesty doesn't like Gongzi in the first place, although he has offered a lot of money, but if the evidence is conclusive, Your Majesty is also happy to push the boat down the river, and it is absolutely impossible to indulge." Luo Qianhuai said.
"So this is the reason why the subordinates still want to come to find Mrs. Luo despite the orders of the son." Wei Cang bowed down deeply:
"As long as you can find out the suspicious points in the case, even if it is just a detailed description of the appearance of the thieves just mentioned, it will already be a great help to the childe. Compared to that, you don't have to worry about anything else. ”
