14 Feng Luan's murder case is busy
The day after the emperor's wedding, Luoyang City suddenly blew a strong wind again, and it was dark, flying sand and stones, and it was difficult to walk an inch.
There was news in the palace that the new queen was thinking that the weather was bad and sympathized with those dignitaries and nobles who should enter the palace to meet and ask for peace, and they could stay until the weather improved, and if there were people who were not in good health, they could not come.
This is reasonable, but also somewhat unexpected.
After all, after the canonization of the empress of the Great Jin Dynasty, no matter how good or bad the weather is, the ladies should enter the palace to congratulate.
This is also the way and means that the royal family has always won over the hearts of the people and has a good relationship with everyone.
The ladies whispered behind closed doors, but no one heard them.
However, the wind blew for three days and three nights, and did not stop until noon on the fourth day.
The old and infirm among the crowd remembered the new queen's approach, and secretly sighed a few more times for the delicate girl, and added a few more precious gold and silver jewels when preparing the gifts.
A historian stood on the high place of the Luoyang Imperial City to record the weather conditions: "The wind blows the dust and darkens the city, and pedestrians do not see each other when they pass each other." ”
The sky was already clear, and the sun was shining down.
The cold of the early winter season has decreased a lot, and there is some warmth, which is very surprising, and people have stepped outside to enjoy this short sunny time, and sweep away the previous depressed mood.
Perhaps, this lively royal wedding did bring new hope to the chaotic and redundant Dajin.
At this time, there was a lot of commotion in the North Five Places under the root of the city, and soon the forbidden army surrounded this place and forbade it to enter and exit.
After a few moments, a man was lifted out of the storage room, wrapped in white cloth, apparently dead.
Lord Zhu Mozhu, the middle marquis of the Northern Army, who was in charge of the affairs of the various sects in Luoyang City, had already hurried over.
If there is a murder on weekdays, it is not unusual, just follow the general process.
But this thing is very unusual.
In the miscellaneous warehouse of the North 5th Institute, the Imperial Fengluan that was burned down on the street three days ago and split in half is stored here, because I don't know what to do with it.
What's more, this phoenix luan is a royal gilt thing, even if it is burned, the gold ornaments left on it and the gold water in the soil below must be collected.
Therefore, after Lord Zhu consulted the prince Sima Lun at that time, he asked people to move all the soil under Fengluan to the North Five Sundries Warehouse under the Imperial City, and then discuss with the adults what to do in a few days.
The wind was strong for three days, and no one went out.
Who would have thought that in the early morning of the fourth day, someone found that a person had died here, and he still fell next to Fengluan.
Lord Zhu stood in the sundries warehouse with a frown, the dirty blood on the ground had dried up, and the form of the deceased was also outlined with lime powder.
After recording the condition of the corpse, he first packed it up and brought it back to the Northern Military Mansion for further autopsy.
However, the tragic situation of the dead body really makes people shudder when they think about it.
Not only is the clothes tattered and messy, but the entire face is even more bloody and blurred, and the facial features are unrecognizable, and the appearance of death is extremely terrifying.
Because this matter involves the royal phoenix, it has to be reported.
Zhu Mo straightened his official uniform and entered the palace with a straight face.
"Marquis of Xingjin." He saw Yang Xuanzhi and his two sons outside the Chonghua Palace, and immediately remembered that they must have come to see the queen.
The bride of the folk style returned to the door in three days, but the queen's status was noble and she would not be able to go back.
Her family can go into the palace to say hello and ask for warmth.
"Lord Zhu." Yang Xuanzhi, who had already changed into an official robe, also greeted politely.
"Today, the wind has stopped, and the weather is good." Zhu Mo is very polite, after all, he is not familiar with Yang Xuanzhi, and even said that he is very unfamiliar.
Although the ancestor of the Yang family was born as a military general, when he came to Yang Xuanzhi, he became a civil official and had no authority.
Although his two sons also have military positions, they are not of high rank after all.
Now that there is a queen in the family, this situation is about to change again.
Yang Xiankang walked out from behind Yang Xuanzhi, his attitude was very respectful, but the words he asked revealed the recklessness of the young man who was not so polite, "My lord, I want to ask: Is there an eyebrow in the case of Fengluan catching fire?" We all saw that Liu Yao saved the queen that day, why do you say that he was the one who set the fire? ”
"Kang'er, don't be rude." Yang Xuanzhi reprimanded.
"Father, I'm right. Everyone saw that day, if Liu Yao split Fengluan, the third sister would ......"
"Second brother." Yang Xianyong pulled him, "Lord Zhu naturally has his reasons." ”
Zhu Mo has been in officialdom for so many years, of course, he will not be angry because of such rudeness, not to mention that the identity of the Yang family is different from the past.
"Liu Yao is now a suspect, even if he is not the one who set the fire, he is also the one who destroyed Fengluan, and it is also a big crime to destroy the imperial Fengluan in front of everyone."
"But he's saving people." Yang Xiankang was even more unhappy.
"This matter needs to be investigated again." Zhu Mo's answer was very simple, obviously he didn't want to talk to him anymore.
At this time, Sima Lun and Sima Ying also came to Chonghua Palace.
Sima Lun is the minister of the state, and most matters are also decided by him.
Therefore, Zhu Mo came to look for him.
"King Zhao, King of Chengdu." Zhu Mo, Yang Xuanzhi and others immediately saluted them and called them according to their titles.
"Alright, what's the matter?" Sima Lun looked very impatient, Sima Ying was still the same handsome and gentle, today it was just an ordinary official man's outfit, dark green dark pattern robe, splendid gold thread trim, looking more dignified and pleasing to the eye.
"Xiaguan Yili is here to see the queen today, and I came to say hello to the two princes." Yang Xuanzhi is now also a fictitious Marquis of Xingjin, so he naturally spoke first.
"yes, got it." Sima Lun nodded, "By the way, you can also wait for a while, Sun Xiu and the others will come over soon, and you can go to see the queen together." ”
"Okay." Yang Xuanzhi arched his hand again.
"What was the commotion just now?" Sima Lun had already seen that Yang Xiankang's expression was a little excited, so he deliberately asked.
"It's about the case of Fengluan being burned, and the lower officials just want to ask more." Yang Xuanzhi naturally defends his son and takes the responsibility on himself.
"Oh? What's going on? I heard that a person was arrested. Sima Lun looked at Zhu Mo.
"Yes, I caught Liu Yao who split Fengluan." Zhu Mo replied immediately.
"What?" Sima Ying spoke up, "This person is the one who saved the queen, right?" ”
"Back to the prince, this person did save the queen from Fengluan, but he is also the one who released the arrow. What can be concluded now is that someone shot a rocket and ignited Fengluan, but could it be that Liu Yao did it too? Besides, it is also a capital offense for him to destroy Fengluan......"
"......" Sima Ying pursed her lips when she heard this, "Let's investigate this matter again." ”
"Yes." Zhu Mo nodded hurriedly.
After all, in early winter, it's still a little cold outside.
Sima Lun had already entered the Chonghua Hall and sat down, and everyone followed him in.
The furnishings of the Chonghua Hall are very simple, because it is the place where the princes deliberate, and there are many seats.
Naturally, he was the leader, and he sat on the main seat.
According to the generation, Sima Ying is a nephew, so he is still standing.
"What are you doing here?" Sima Lun asked Zhu Mo.
"Back to the prince's words, just now a janissary army found a female corpse in the sundries warehouse of the North Five Institutes." Zhu Mo carefully chose his words and sentences, "Because he died next to Feng Luan, he felt that this matter should be reported to the prince as soon as possible." ”
"What? How did he die? Sima Lun's brows furrowed, "The North Fifth Institute is not a forbidden place, how can someone die somewhere?" ”
"In order to make Fengluan before, I specially vacated the miscellaneous warehouse of the North Fifth Institute for Lei Dayong to use. Everyone thinks that the place is at the foot of the imperial city, relatively speaking, it is very safe, and there is a big lock hanging on weekdays, and no one is particularly on duty. Now that Fengluan has become like that, no one will go in, so just ......" Zhu Mo hurriedly explained.
