In the imperial study of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houzhao had just sent a group of envoys back to Honglu Temple, and instructed the officials of the Ministry of Rites to appease him.
Then immediately afterwards, Zhu Houzhao summoned Liu Jin of Dongchang, Huang Feiyue, the commander of Jinyiwei, Ma Dahai, the eunuch in charge of the meal, and several ministers of the cabinet and Jiang Xia to discuss countermeasures in the Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Houzhao gave everyone a seat, and everyone sat together and discussed this matter word by word, trying to restore the truth of the matter as much as possible.
Zhu Houzhao first asked Ma Dahai: "Did the little eunuchs who were in charge of tasting the dishes have an accident?"
Ma Dahai shook his head: "Back to the emperor, those little eunuchs have just been diagnosed by the imperial doctor, and none of them have signs of poisoning." ”
"The people who poisoned them must be the palace maids and eunuchs who brought food into the Taihe Palace. Liu Jin said affirmatively, and then said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, the slaves and maids immediately asked people to arrest those palace maids and eunuchs, and then tortured them one by one. ”
Zhu Hou couldn't think of any better way after taking a look at Liu Jin, so he nodded.
Huang Feiyue, the commander of Jinyiwei, also said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, Weichen went to find out the identities of all the people who came into contact with the dishes that day, so as to see if there were any people whose origin was unknown. ”
"Yes. Zhu Houzhao also nodded.
At this moment, Ma Dahai couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, in fact, when the slaves and maids selected the palace maids and eunuchs, they were all old people who had been in the palace for seven or eight years, and it stands to reason that they should not go on a business trip." ”
Ma Dahai's words were actually refuting Liu Jin and Huang Feiyue's suspicions, but others were soft-spoken, so they didn't dare to refute it openly. After all, he is the eunuch in charge of the meal, and the palace maids and eunuchs who are in charge of delivering the meal can be regarded as his subordinates.
Liu Jin said "torture and torture", I am afraid that the palace maids and eunuchs who are in charge of passing the food will basically have to take off a few layers of skin if they are not dead, and whether they can walk out of the East Factory intact, this is really difficult to predict.
Ma Dahai, who entered the East Factory and was tortured, couldn't remember how many people he could come out alive, anyway, the people he knew could be counted on five fingers.
Liu Jin's eyes were cold, and he glanced at Ma Dahai lightly and said: "Grandpa Ma, seven or eight years in the palace does not mean that it will be reliable, in case one or two of them are poisoners, I am afraid that you will not be able to escape the interference at that time."
"Father-in-law Liu, I" Ma Dahai didn't expect that he couldn't bear to say a word to those palace maids and eunuchs because he couldn't bear to do so, but in the end it caught fire on himself. At this moment, Ma Dahai's whole body trembled, and cold sweat kept coming out from his forehead and back.
Liu Jin snorted lightly twice, then turned around and prepared to leave. Jiang Xia, who had been closing his eyes and raising his spirits, finally opened his eyes at this moment and shouted, "Father-in-law Liu, please wait." ”
Liu Jin had already walked towards the door, but when Jiang Xia said this, he immediately stopped and turned to look at Jiang Xia.
Liu Jin's eyes revealed a little dislike.
For such a big matter, it stands to reason that he should be in charge of the investigation in Dongchang, but in Taihe Palace, Jiangxia came forward and said, "I will give Yili an explanation within seven days." In Liu Jin's opinion, this is already a kind of encroachment to ignore him Dongchang and Liu Jin. Now that Jiang Xia is interrupting again, Liu Jin naturally dislikes it even more.
Liu Jin said: "What advice does Lord Jiang have?"
Jiang Xia looked at Liu Jin, and the relationship between the two was like an unrefrigerated pork belly in the summer. On the surface, the meat quality is still good, but in fact, the inside has been pustuated and rotten.
Jiang Xia said: "I think that the person who poisoned me is not the palace maid and eunuch who passed the meal. ”
Ma Dahai immediately looked at Jiang Xia with excitement and gratitude in his eyes.
Liu Jin smiled slightly and said, "Oh? Could it be that Lord Jiang knows who is the one who poisoned him?" Then Liu Jin should ask for advice. ”
Liu Jin mouthed a "Master Jiang", and the way he spoke like this actually clearly expressed his dissatisfaction. However, Jiang Xia seemed to turn a blind eye, and said directly: "I don't know who the poisoner is, but I know that it shouldn't be the eunuchs and palace maids who pass the meal." ”
"Should it?" Liu Jin smiled slightly, "Then what if there is an accident?"
Jiang Xia looked at Liu Jin with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
His relationship with Liu Jin has changed.
Jiang Xia knew this very well, since the official establishment of his royal dragon detective, the relationship between him and Liu Jin was destined to change, and it had also changed. Maybe in the past, Liu Jin still had the idea of using him Jiangxia, but after the establishment of the royal dragon detective, he Jiangxia and Liu Jin have become a competitive relationship.
The terms of reference and internal content of the royal dragon detective and the East Factory are too close, which is basically equivalent to a copy of the East Factory. From a certain point of view, Jiang Xia is equivalent to robbing Liu Jin's power or dividing his power.
From this moment on, it was impossible for Jiang Xia and Liu Jin to maintain the superficial harmony they had in the past, and to use each other in private. First of all, Liu Jin would not agree, and secondly, Zhu Houzhao would not sit idly by and watch such a situation.
Jiang Xia suddenly turned around and said in a loud voice, "I wonder if you adults have noticed the actions of Yili when he poisoned Prince Li to death?"
"Action?" the ministers began to discuss, and the situation was sudden, and who paid attention to the movements of the eldest prince. In addition to the five knowledgeable people, the memory of the group of Jiangxia.
Zhu Houzhao said: "Jiang Xia, if there is anything to do, quickly say it, let's refer to it together." ”
Jiang Xia nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”
Jiang Xia got up and walked to the middle of the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, he covered his waist with his left hand and suddenly shouted, "Ah!".
Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Jiang Xia was doing.
Liu Jin even couldn't help but sneer: "Master Jiang, this is the Qianqing Palace, not your Imperial Entertainment Division, everyone has no time to watch you act." ”
"Liu Jin," Zhu Houzhao called out lightly. There was a slight dissatisfaction in his tone, after all, there was still him who acted in the Imperial Entertainment Division, and Liu Jin ridiculed him with a sentence just now.
Liu Jin reacted at this time, and was slightly shocked in his heart, and immediately bowed his head and said: "The slave and maid lost their words, and the emperor forgives the sin." ”
Jiang Xia said: "Actually, Gonggong Liu is not wrong, I am indeed acting." It's just that I'm playing the appearance of Yili poisoning Prince Lida to death. Everyone should pay attention to the fact that when the eldest prince was poisoned, he covered his waist with his left hand, and then screamed in pain and then died of poisoning. ”
"Is there any mystery in this?" Huang Feiyue, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Xia said: "Of course there is." ”
As he spoke, Jiang Xia quickly stabbed Huang Feiyue's stomach with his hand, and Huang Feiyue immediately covered his stomach with his hand.
